5. First World Problems Girl

Have you ever been served a soy latte instead of a caramel macchiato at Starbucks? Been to the local store and found out they're completely out of avocados? Been unable to log onto Facebook for twenty minutes in a public place, because there's no Wi-Fi connection available? Then you, too, have suffered from first world problems, and chances are you used this famous meme to illustrate your woes!

The well-known shot of a crying woman in close up is actually of Italian Silvia Bottini, and she wasn't really upset when the photo was taken. She's an actress, and she was giving a performance. Given that she works in the performing arts, she's turned her meme fame into a career positive - she's currently working on a movie about what it's like to have your face turned into a meme. Hopefully, she gets in touch with the other people on our list, too.
