In case you didn't get the memo, the internet recently discovered Sandra Bullock and it's obsessed.

According the the Netflix Twitter account Bird Box achieved 45,037,125 views in it's first week. Perish all thought of any meme you may have previously enjoyed, because now there's one of Sandra Bullock in a blindfold to replace all of them (which, when we think about it is a bit disturbing - but it's 2019 and almost anything can be re-invented as taggable humour).

Of course, some may remember that Sandra Bullock had a career prior to Bird Box and that she was even in some pretty good films, like While You Were Sleeping, The Blind Side and The Proposal. Who could forget when she showed us all how to store doughnuts in your bra in Miss Congeniality? Revolutionary.

Because there's a Twitter thread for everything, there is even a viral tweet in remembrance of the fact that Sandra Bullock had a career and played a some notable roles before she was in a film where she spent half the screen time with most of her face covered.

But while we are pondering the discovery [sic?] of Sandra Bullock, social media has served a slew of Bullock/Bird Box-centric memes which we can all revel in the wisdom of. Behold, everything you know to be true about the New Year as told by Sandra Bullock memes...
