So, you like to break people’s private property? You think it’s okay to go into someone’s home after dark and not only break every jar in the building, but still the money hidden inside? Not cool, man. Then, you go outside, torment chickens, and expect them not to fight back? What a loser! You, Link, whoever is in control of that boy has issues, and it is not okay. We all know the truth about Link, and it’s dark. Not like dark as in Dark Link but dark as in Link is out of control and has no morals. Since you control him, in turn, you have no morals. Ganon is the protagonist here, Link…you, are the antagonist, believe it or not. Everything you’ve ever been told is a lie! Lies! It’s call cakes and lies!

If you understand what I’m talking about, then you know that I actually love Link (like really love the idiot). So get ready for this: I’ve gathered twenty-five whole precious Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time memes for your viewing pleasure. Not just Breath of the Wild or A Link to the Past, but Ocarina of Time. My single, most favorite game in history! So you better enjoy these twenty-five overtly amazing memes about Ocarina of Time. And you better laugh!

25 Milk Doesn’t Go Bad!

So, in just seven years, your wooden shield rots…and yet, the milk is good? It wasn’t even refrigerated! There’s so much messed up about what happened to young Link. Not only did he miss seven years of his life, but he was taken care of by a creepy old man. He went to sleep as a child, and woke up a man…sort of. The point is, he woke up going through puberty at sixteen. Putting a nine-year-old into a sixteen-year-olds body is never a good idea. Do you want a freak? Cause that’s how you get a freak.

Not only that, but he really didn’t need to be put to sleep in the first place. He could have just trained for seven years and defeated Ganon so easily! But nope, we have to let him rule the world, kill people, zombify them. Nice. Now, tell me again how putting a nine-year-old who is destined to save the world to sleep for seven years was a good idea. That’s what I thought. Now…if only we had a hyperbolic time chamber.

24 Always That One Carrot

Are you really an Ocarina of Time master if you don’t save that one carrot despite needing it? We all know the right way to ride through Hyrule field is to press A until, and only until there is one carrot left. Epona must be getting fat with all those carrots, but we never let her run out. It seems like some kind of unsaid tip/hint to get the most out of your ride through Hyrule. Like, if you use all of your carrots, you’re going to be walking so slow in the most frustrating way for hours, right? But…if you would only use one carrot at a time, that’s like you only have one carrot, not like you’re conserving the rest. It’s wasteful, and mama did raise no wasteful Kokiri.

23 Save Yourself, Deku Tree

Let me get this straight. You want me to go inside you, Deku Tree, to save you. Risk my life, scar myself with the presence of deadly spiders and high cliffs requiring me to jump, which I can’t even do! Just to save you. When in reality, you were doomed all along? No thanks! Let’s take care of that right now. Burn, baby, burn! This will solve everything.

But first…tell me about Hyrule, my destiny and all that crap. Also, I’ll solve your problem in five seconds if you just give me that slingshot, and that heart container while you’re at it. If Link solved everything with this attitude, the game wouldn’t last ten minutes. He needs to cease the talking from NPCs and take matters into his own hands. No need to bend to the will of everyone you meet.

22 Chicken Of Thyme

This one is so useless, but you are smiling so it’s done its job already. In fact, it’s hard to stop smiling and you wish to show everyone who has ever played Ocarina of Time. As this is the chicken of thyme. “The Chicken of Thyme's origins are unknown, since its history is only briefly spoken of in the Legend of McNugget: Chicken of Thyme. Princess McNugget mentions that the sacred instrument has been secretly passed down for generations within the Royal Family of McRule, kept safe from those who would exploit its power to cause others harm. As such, it is a treasured heirloom of the Royal Family and will only be given to the one who will open the Door of Thyme to retrieve the Master Fry. Full of endless mysterious powers, the Chicken of Thyme proves to be a magical instrument that serves many hidden purposes which only a selected few can truly uncover.” In fact, it’s hard to stop smiling and you wish to show everyone who has ever played Ocarina of Time.

21 Anyone Up For A Leisure Trip?

This is every game ever, not just Ocarina of Time. Why is it so acceptable to roam the world as it is ending? Just fishing, playing a game of cards, challenging drunks to a duel? It really shouldn’t be. Especially when as soon as you cross a certain doorway, you have 30 seconds to defeat a boss that is about to devour some helpless girl. Wow…just in time. It’s a good thing you often out of that last card game or she’d be dragon food!

Riiight. I wish I had this kind of time in my life. Working sixty hours this week, going to the gym for an hour each day, need to run a few errands, have a dentist appointment on Thursday. Yeah, I think I can go fishing with you, Brenda, thanks for asking!

20 Already A Man!

This one is so true! One of the things that the “old kids on the block” were so fascinated with when Breath of the Wild came out was so simple. You could jump. Those who were Ocarina of Time fans were astonished, and probably cried when they saw their feet leave the ground that first time. As children, we’d dream of one day being able to jump on call. These Breath of the Wild kids don’t know how easy they got it. But it kind of makes it feel like we are our own grandfathers, “when I was a kid, I had a job hauling wood in my wagon for two cents every day, twelve hours a day, just to feed my mama when I was three-years-old!”

Never have we understood our grandparents so well. The connection is there, we had it hard. Hard, but oh so good.

19 Accurate Alignment Chart

We all love these alignment charts that show us the Dungeons and Dragons alignment for each character on a show/game. In this case, it’s Ocarina of Time. The ones that were in no way questionable were that chicken and Princess Ruto, though you could make a compelling argument that Ganon and Navi need to get switched. Seriously? How is that fairy not in the evil list? We all know the truth. Likely, she used to be Ganon’s fairy before breaking his heart, turning him toward evil, and attempting to do the same to Link.

Ganon is here to stop her. But he has rules…he may “want to rule the world” but only because this world is in need of a ruler. One where fairies who say “hey, listen” every ten seconds to tell you something you already know don’t exist. One where old men don’t wake little boys up for the most useless reasons only to put him in a coma for seven years.

18 Let’s Make Pots

This comic is rather long, but it goes like this. The Hyrule Bottle Factory is shut down after one day of making bottles. They come up with four…the amount that you can collect in the game. A super useful item that can store life-saving potions, fairies, and milk! They think and think of something to produce instead and strike gold! Pots! If they just make some clay pots, super easy investment, maybe someone will buy them. Nope, not Link…but all the people who are victims of Link’s pot abuse. Yes, I said “pot abuse,” and I meant it.

But let’s move on because we’ve already been over this. What we need to question is why only four bottles? Why? Link would absolutely love more! He would carry 100 if they were available. But they’re not…so we smash pots instead.

17 Never Gonna Be A Millionaire

This guy is going places. I’m not going to judge him for not playing video games, but this is pretty pitiful. I mean, I don’t watch sports unless it’s e-sports…ever. But I do know that Michael Jordan plays football for the NHL team, Manchester United. Yes, that was a joke. But I’m serious about this dude. Some may laugh, but others, those who take gaming, and Ocarina of Time seriously, are hurt. They feel like a vampire, who is currently having a wooden stake driven through their heart.

To lighten things up, think about the Ocarina of Time, only with DK as the main character. That would be a game worth playing. But things change. Remember when he was the main antagonist of the first game featuring Mario? At one time, he was kidnapping blonde princesses. Maybe it’s his turn to save one, Princess Zelda.

16 My Answer Is Please Shut Up

His name is Kaepora Gaebora and he is known for never shutting up. For talking in the most confusing manner. The riddles are too much for any kid, especially when you just keep pressing A when he talks. Not reading what he says. Then, after he finishes, you accidentally press it again. Instead of backing out, you land on “yes” and he keeps on talking. He will repeat himself any number of times and enjoy each one. You, on the other hand, despise this. You know where to go, what to do, so if he could just…not, that would be great. Because in the end, you don’t know if saying “yes” or “no” will make him shut his owlish pie hole.

Struggles of being the chosen one here. Saria doesn’t have to listen to him for hours on end cause she doesn’t know how to press B.

15 An Accurate Pie Chart

Has there been a more accurate pie chart in the history of internet memes? I think not. Because in truth, 99% of us spend their time in the game rolling through Hyrule. Most of the time its because it takes forever to get to the other side. Other times because it’s kind of fun — especially when you swing your sword around every once in a while…maybe even…long swing it.

Another fun thing that takes up a lot of time is those darn chickens! To be fair, you seem to be the instigator, but gosh, do they have to be so annoying? They could leave you alone, you’re trying to save mankind here. They should entertain you on your time off. Same goes for those villagers. Yeah, if you want to break all their pots and steal their rupees then they should let you with a smile. I mean, playing the main story is the least amazing part of this game, right?

14 Still Confused About This Song

The Song of Storms had to have caused some sort of paradox. As children, we never paid much attention to it. But as adults, we realized something strange. Where did it begin? How did we know? Who taught it to who? There are so many unanswered questions. It’s a circle of learning and it makes such little sense that there’s no way to tell where it began.

You have to know the song to teach it. But in order to learn it, you need to teach it. John Jacob Jingleheimer Smith this is confusing! You learn it as an adult, but you already know it as a kid. It takes the kid you to teach the windmill guy it, so he can teach it to the adult you. Like, how do you even begin to understand that?

13 Just Like Link Always Said

We all know how Link and Zelda enjoy visiting with each other. And I mean Zelda talking and Link listening intently…or pressing A over and over waiting for her to finish. But she never forgets his signature “Hyah, hut, hut, hyaaah!”

Wait a minute, this just proves that he isn’t mute, but he never talks. What kind of person does that? Zelda cares for him and he never talks to anyone unless he’s swinging his sword talking to pots and grass. He really does only care about money, treasures. At least Zelda loves him despite this. She misses his “huts” and “hyahs” despite everything. That’s really special. She let him go…selflessly, knowing she may never see him again. Who am I kidding? This meme has no story behind it, it’s just funny. So laugh!

12 One Does Not Simple Walk Through Hyrule Field

This is a given. It’s a challenge for you. Walk all the way across Hyrule field on foot...without one single roll. It hasn’t been proven that rolling is or isn’t faster, we all just assume it is. But more than that, we get bored. Some have said that it’s proven that rolling is faster. Others say running is faster. Some say backwards running is the fastest while others say that the best thing to do is sidestep. Gosh, that must be tiring.

So, we all do what we want, and if we can stand the “hyah” every five seconds, we roll. If not, well, then it’s all up to you. But, is it really a Zelda game if you don’t hear Link “hyah” at a frightening number of times a minute?

11 Best Warning in the World

This is the truest thing I’ve ever seen if you’re an Ocarina of Time fan. There are no gamers who “kind of” like Ocarina of Time. You either love it, claim it’s the best game in history, or you say it sucks just to tick off every other gamer out there. We call those people trolls. They don’t hate the game, they just like to rile others up. And that’s okay. If you want to be Navi, then do it, no one is stopping you.

For the rest of us, we feel sorry for Nintendo and every other game dev out there. They have big shoes to fill. I guarantee you if Ocarina of Time never existed then Twilight Princess, Windwaker, and even Majora’s Mask would have a lot better ratings. After all, it’s the theory of relativity here.

10 Truest Thing Ever Said: Master Quest Edition

We know the Water Temple is the hardest single event in Ocarina of Time. But we also know that the Master Quest was insanely difficult for a 90s game. And like, you do know that this was a time where few people actually had PCS, right? So we didn’t just look up the tutorial or walkthrough. Besides, that’s pansy talk. We figure stuff out ourselves here. If we really wanted to cheat and look stuff up, we went to the store and bought that $20 guide in the flesh. Even cheating took hard work back in the day.

That beautiful lifestyle needs brought back and kids these days need to go play the Master Quest. They need to understand that the Water Temple…enough said. Because, a lot of us still remember how to get through the water temple to this day, and still forget our mother’s birthday.

9 Ah…It’s Like Reverse Nostalgia

It’s odd how a reference to a game that is thirteen years newer than the game in question can make us nostalgic. It’s cause…there’s a guard, and there’s a guard and Skyrim and this is the most famous Skyrim line. Then, Skyrim is awesome and so is Ocarina of Time and does this really need explaining?

Since you don’t need to know why this is funny, let me tell you where that line “actually” came from. First of all, it wasn’t supposed to be a big deal. It was just a way to make the guards seem more interesting, invested in your life. They created tons of lines like this and gave them to the guards. But none caught on like this one did. The devs say it was all about luck, they didn’t know how famous it would become. They just wrote.

8 My Rupee Pouch Is Full Anyway

If we ever didn’t have time for something in the Ocarina of Time universe, it’s collecting those spider kids! Seriously, save yourself. There’s too much heartbreak involved. We risk our lives and for what? For a bigger wallet? Sure, whatever, that’s nice. What’s next? The Stone of Agony? So we can detect Secret Grottos when we can’t afford a rumble pack anyway? It’s useless. Wow, another wallet. That’s more than my wife has given me. That the best you got? A Bombchu? Give me some rupees and I can buy an unlimited amount form a merchant! So, I help you, work hours upon hours to save your family, and I get one Huge Rupee? Not worth it!

So, let’s burn that house where you meet the snotty family the first time and tell them to save themselves. Yes, Link secretly wants to burn every problem in his life to the ground.

7 It’s Your Time…Now Listen

Raise your hand if Navi’s a troll-faced jerk! But, she saw you, she saw you keep those fairies in jars. Those are her kind, and you treated them like animals, disposing of them when you were in danger like they were consumable potions. Now it’s her turn, and she’s going to pay you back. She’s trapped you in a jar, Link, and there’s no turning back. Next is Saria…then Zelda…she’s not stopping till she captures everyone you’ve ever cared about.

You’ll be sorry you ever tried to ignore her, “hey, listen” and wish you’d have treated her better. You thought you knew pain, you thought Ganon knew how to show you pain, but you were sorely mistaken. Navi is in town, she will rule Hyrule, she will rule the world!

6 Bombs Are For Everyone

Now, you can’t just go into any milk bar you please! You’re nine-years-old! Here, go play with these bombs instead. Yeah, I guess just how every country has a different legal drinking age, every in-game country has their own standards as well. So, I guess in Hyrule, you can go to the milk bar at age sixteen, but not at nine. However, bombs? We hand them out at Halloween. The kids love them. There’ve only been, like, 16 accidents in the last five years, and half of them were due to Bombchus. Then the other half were on purpose cause kids are jerkwads.

But, at least they’re not under the influence or else that number would surely rise. The Royal Family itself raised the drinking age to 12 just last year due to all the incidents that had been caused by the drunken children.
