The Vampire Diaries: 10 Damon Salvatore Quotes That Are Ridiculously Meme-Worthy
Damon Salvatore is known on The Vampire Diaries for his snarky comments and sarcastic nature. He is the king of nicknames and silly voices, bringing a sense of humor to the show's darkest moments. Unlike other funny characters who use their wit for evil, however, Damon's sense of humor is usually based on gently mocking the people he loves most.
For viewers who love Damon's sarcastic commentary, they can bring them into their own life in the form of memes, bringing Damon's best lines into their everyday discussions with friends and enemies alike.
Stefan Salvatore has a tendency to worry over every possible bad action he takes, thanks to the tremendous guilt Stefan has over his ripper days, even extending to switching out human blood for animal blood to limit how much harm he does to humans.
Damon, on the other hand, thinks this is ridiculous and likes to mock Stefan for being so self-righteous and morally conflicted. The quote is great and has the opportunity to be used in any situation where someone seems a little too concerned with being perfect.
Everybody knows somebody who is just looking for flaws in their potential friends and love interests. In this quote, Damon is mocking the people around him for continually complaining about his flaws (which do include killing a lot of people). But it has great potential to be used whenever people are too picky.
Complaining about every little trait? This meme is perfect. Worrying about a person not being perfect? This meme will remind the person that at least their potential partner doesn't kill everyone they know. Delena made it work even with Damon killing everybody, so why should a regular person be any different?
On The Vampire Diaries, dying is practically a rite of passage to be considered a part of the group. With all of the different ways to die and come back, death doesn't mean much to the main cast of characters, so Damon has little sympathy for those who are more panicked about their new situation.
This meme is great for people who are panicking over something in their lives that isn't that big of a deal. Hopefully, they'll see the humor in the meme, and if they don't, then at least they aren't dead.
Damon has a tendency to keep his plans close to his chest, as was the case when he said this iconic line. The play on the cliche makes it more fun, and the quote is easily applicable to a wide variety of circumstances.
Whether it's a surprise birthday party or an evil scheme, this quote is the perfect meme-able moment for times when a person might need (or want) to keep the details of a situation to themselves.
Everybody has at least one friend who seems like an enemy more often than not. In Damon's case, Elena goes back and forth on whether she loves him or hates him, prompting him to say this fantastic quote.
This could be used for any frenemy that seems to have swung back toward the enemy side of the spectrum, or for when a person wants to be overdramatic about a slight against them.
Damon says this to Mason Lockwood, but everybody has somebody that they want to say something like this to. At this point, Damon has the flexibility to say what he wants because he's already dead and is harder to kill for good.
Because bluntness doesn't typically go over as well in the real world, this meme might be best served online, reserved for Internet trolls or online debate sections when someone says something overly stupid.
When Stefan is clueless to Caroline's feelings for him, Damon uses a teddy bear to mock how obvious the budding relationship was for those around them.
This quote would be the perfect meme for situations where something obvious is brought up, especially when it's said like it is a revelation, rather than something that everybody already knows about. The sarcasm level is just right to get away with saying it to friends and enemies alike.
Damon loves to use his sex appeal to get what he wants, and he's lucky enough not to have to worry about any unexpected consequences coming from that decision. This line is explanatory and a pick-up line in the show, but could be useful outside of its original context.
For the next nerdy boy trying to flirt with his nerdy girlfriend or vice-versa, this could be a fun way for someone to flirt and tell their partner that they're ready to move things along physically.
This quote has some pretty obvious applications, for when somebody is playing music or movies too loud. In The Vampire Diaries universe, it's just as likely that the problem would be the sounds of someone dying, but in this case, it's just a noise complaint.
Fans of the show can use the meme whenever someone is being annoyingly loud, using Damon's sarcasm to hide their own irritation with the situation. The meme keeps it playful, while also clearly getting the message across.
Finally, for times when somebody is asked what they were doing last night, they could respond like Damon. Damon's casual tone makes it funny that what he says is mostly true in the show, but will make it that much more fun for fans to use when they obviously did not just kill someone.
Damon is enough of a willing killer that the line shows how mundane killing is for him, but it'll bring some fun to any fan's day when they use it in place of their own adventures.
