The ceremony itself may have been an exhausting mess, but the 2021 Golden Globes still managed to produce some great memes. Probably the most spectacular of the night was Kaley Cuoco and her inadvertent “How It Started/How It’s Going” pics on Instagram after her and her show, The Flight Attendant, left home empty-handed.

Cuoco’s husband, Karl Cook, also surprised her by showing up unexpectedly to help her … not celebrate.

Meanwhile, Jodie Foster wore her pajamas, which matched her dog’s outfit, and she kissed her wife after her win, and it was amazing.

Elsewhere, Jared Leto’s outfit drew a lot of notice.

Twitter had a blast with the room from which Jeff Daniels zoomed in:

I respect that Jeff Daniels literally just got up from dinner and fired up the zoom and is gonna go back to eat now.

I bet Jeff Daniels didn’t even tell his wife that he’s nominated.

“Where you going?”

Likewise, Al Pacino embodied us all at home by taking a nap during the ceremony.

However, the best meme of the night didn’t actually happen at the Golden Globes, but was about the Golden Globes. Click right to see January Jones and Kiernan Shipka wearing their same dresses from the Golden Globes ceremony a decade ago. Neither of the dresses still fit, but they somehow still manage to pull it off.
