By now you’re probably familiar with the Sad Keanu meme. On July 28th, Redditor shaneblog posted a second Keanu Reeves picture on Reddit (the right side of the banner pic), and the hilarity has ensued. Although the picture of Sad Helmet Keanu is actually five years old, Reeves is immortal so it’s easy to mistake old pictures for new ones.
We’re always happy to milk a meme for all it’s worth then make sweet love to its passed out corporeal form, so here are some of the best Sad Helmet Keanu photoshops out there, along with a few new ones I badly photoshopped with software even older than this picture, for I am a rich blogger for whom only the fanciest software aged to perfection will do.

And, of course, someone made the gif that keeps on giving:
I recently caught up with Keanu at a theme park and took some exclusive photographs:
I understand, dude. The carnival slide is pretty lame.
Oh come on. Who doesn’t crack a smile when riding the bumper cars with House?
You can’t even be happy with roller coasters and Jenga?
Way to go, Keanu. You’ve ruined this trip for Morgan Freeman.
He can’t even enjoy his cotton candy with you frowning over his shoulder like that.
The only way to counteract all this sadness may be to use someone who is always happy with their lunch:

Aww, I guess it didn’t work. [via]


I don’t know why, but the keanu playing murderball picture is my favorite. Well done!
I want to make love to this post.
River’s Edge Keanu was happy for all of five minutes. Hard to believe that was to be the high point.
Whoa.
Keanu’s just bummed because he thought “Naked” juice would give him xray vision…
For a “rich blogger” you sure could afford to get some Photoshop lessons and maybe some better software. These really aren’t that good, I’ve seen better on Fark, better by far.
Steve, no.
Shhhh, go back to bed.
Steve did you not get his joke bud?
I DEMAND MUCH MORE PROFESSIONAL PHOTOSHOPS OF SAD KEANU ON STAR WARS SETS!! HOW DARE YOU NOT TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!

Helmets are supposed to make you happy. What happened?
These are shopped, I can tell by the pixels.
