Of course with every popular series, film, or video game, comes the flood of hilarious memes.Among Usis by far one of the most meme’d games at the moment, and it doesn’t seem like the fanbase is slowing down anytime soon with the oddly creative content they keep pumping out day after day. Here are some of the most hilarious (and sussy)Among Usmemes about being the impostor.
8There’s A Little Impostor In All Of Us
Sometimes games hit a bit closer to home than one would hope. In thishilariously relatable tweet,Among Usfans can finally take a much-needed step back from all the fun and games to realize how similarAmong Uscan feel compared to real life at times.
Maybe pretending to get some work done while the boss makes their rounds around the office or running off to avoid awkward battery-draining social interactions are relatable enough (especially for any shy introverts), but hopefully, there aren’t anyAmong Usfans out there that havebeen venting in real life!
7Marinate Before Frying
It’s a fair strategy to butter up another player just to leave them as a seemingly legitimate alibi, but it doesn’t make the betrayal any less painful. Marinating inAmong Usis a popular strategy that involves an impostor following a crewmate around the map to gain their trust.
The whole idea around marinating a crewmate is to slowly form a bond, allowing the victim to vouch for the impostor, therefore clearing their name before committing any actual kills.
This may be a perfectly acceptable strategy inAmong Us, but hopefully, it doesn’t ruin any friendships for playersin real life outside the game!
6Sometimes The Truth Isn’t Convincing Enough
It’s one thing to lose a game because a fabricated story didn’t hold up or the arguments weren’t convincing enough, but to bevoted out by the entire crewwhen the impostor is someone else is a whole different story.Among Us, unfortunately, brings out the best of everyone’s ability to lie (or ability to “act”), and sometimes those sneaky impostors are just too slick with their bluffs.

Sure, migraines, hypertension, and stress headaches can really hurt; but getting sussed out by the entire crew when the truth was on one’s side the entire time truly hits different and is a whole other kind of pain.
5Fitting In With The Crowd
Among Ushas surpassed the point of popularity where only active players will understand the memes. Just about anyone these days can easily recognize the colorful (and sus)Among Usbeans. While a fairly simple design, theAmong Uscrewmates have made a name for themselves in today’s pop culture.
Nowadays, just about everyone can join in on all the hilariousAmong Usmemes about sticking out as an impostor or faking everyday tasks.
However, it’s still a fun idea to try the game out at least once or twice with a handful of friends. How else will everyone get toappreciate all the fun new hats?
4Who’s A Good Impostor?
Some say there’s asad doge memefor just about anything and this meme proves that statement true. This meme is a hilarious twist on the original meme about everyone asking their pet dogs “who’s a good boy?” and never “how’s the good boy?” Of course, there’s a serious game going on, but would it kill the crewmates to stop and ask if the impostors needed a quick break or uplifting pep talk?
It seems like the infamous internet doge just can’t catch a break; whether he is the good boy or the impostor!
3Plenty Of Space Under The Bus
It may not feel all that great, but sometimes, whengiven the role of the impostor, there’s just no other option aside from going for a quick kill and blaming another innocent crewmate. Framing one another is just another part of the game; don’t take it too personally if this ever happens!

This great recreation of theinfamous Eric Andre memeperfectly captures what it’s like to be in the chaos of an intense game ofAmong Us. This famous meme is so incredibly fitting, it almost feels as if it were made forAmong Us, and its suspicious beans!
2From One Famous Bean To Another
Not too long ago,Among UsandFall Guyswere on top of the world and were at the forefront of both gaming news and popular memes. Everyone agreed that both games were great, but then came the question:which game has the better beans?
Rather than put the two adorable character designs up against one another, why not celebrate the two?In this hilarious meme, everything is turned upside down, and suddenly the adorableFall Guysbean is the suspicious odd one out amongst the silent but deadlyAmong Uscrewmates.
1Fake It ‘Til You Make It
While the original version of this meme was meant to make fun of older people trying to fit in with younger kids, this fits the theme ofAmong Usalmost perfectly.Trying to fit in and not act susis a huge part of the game; one wrong move or stutter in a sentence when presenting an alibi and the entire game can be lost in an instant.
Many games purely depend on the player’s skill level, hand-eye coordination, reaction time, and other things along those lines. However, in order to win inAmong Us, it’s not all about the gameplay. Acting as if nothing’s wrong and the kill and sabotage buttons aren’t there (when they really are) can make a world of a difference.
Any aspiring actors should perhaps consider getting intoAmong Usand making a win as impostor their first ultimate test!
Among Uswas initially released June 15th, 2018, and is now available on Android, iOS, Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
