17 OF THE WORLD'S BEST REACTIONS TO 'CONCHOBAR TOMLINSON'

As if 'Sydney Rain' wasn't bad enough...

So, in case you missed it, earlier today (24 January 2016) word on the grapevine was that Louis and Briani Jungowagon agreed on a first and middle name for their supposed offspring.  Sydney Rain.  The internet was...well, amused.  

But some hours later, it looked like Baby Syd might be totally nonexistent as another rumored first name began to circulate: Lantis.  This is arguably the least cringe-worthy of the two (no offense to anyone who somehow liked the first one), but wait!  

It gets better.  

Most recently, it appears that Louis has made a decision.  Of course, it's much more likely that he lost a bet with Niall (as a "source close to Tomlinson" stated in the deleted People article that this rumor derived from), because apparently Tommo's newborn's name is Conchobar.  

Yeah.  You read that correctly.

What exactly is a 'Conchobar,' you ask? 

"Lover of hounds."  How touching.

Anyway, so as you can probably imagine, the internet is making the best of a bad situation and Conchy, here, has become a worldwide Twitter-trending meme already.  

For those of you who are totally out of the loop and haven't spent the last twenty minutes alternating between Twitter and Tumblr laughing your socks off at the best Conchobar-related posts, allow me to enlighten you.  Here are 17 of the best ones.

1. Disney's Good Luck Conchobar

This would probably save Disney Channel from itself, to be honest.  I'd watch it.

2.  Conchobar Lads Tomlinson

Aw, he has Louis' eyes.

3.  Oh no, Liam

True story.

4.  What the lyrics should have been...

I'm singing it like this from now on.

5.  The mortal enemies' first conversation in months

The first time I saw this one I thought it was going in a Jacob-imprinting-on-Renesmee direction.  I'm glad I was wrong.

6.  #growingupwithmyname

Teacher: Okay... That sounds fake but okay.

7.  Let's all take lessons from the older Horan

My favorite version of the "This is _____" meme.

8.  "We took a...wait, what?"

WTF is a choncobar

9.  And on that note...

I wonder what we'll be WTFing in 2017.

10.  Even YouTubers are befuddled.

@ Mr. Franta, please make a video addressing this.  Thanks.

11.  (On second thought, you keep doing you, Connor.)

If no YouTuber he collabs with in the near future calls him 'Conchobar' in their video, I will personally sic dark!Harry on them.

12.  Ordering Starbucks, part I

I'm the barista.

13.  Ordering Starbucks, part II

Look at the pain in those eyes.  

14.  This Tumblr post

Truer words have never been written.

15.  You tell 'em, Nonnie

I'm honestly laughing so hard.

16.  Me

Who's winning?  This post.  This post is winning.

17.  And lastly, the best one.

Way better than the original meme, if you ask me.

I hope this was an eye-opening experience for you all.  It certainly was for me.  Bless this night.

If you enjoyed this post, be sure to vote for it and leave a comment!  Let me know which Tumblr/Twitter responses to little Conchy were your favorite.  Originally I was going to do the 25 best posts I've seen, but it appears Wattpad has a 20 image limit so...oh well.  

This is essentially what you have to look forward to with TRASH™ Talk -- loads of fun, loads of visual media, loads of One Direction.  I mean, this post in itself was more about the supposed Tommo baby, but the format is what the format of most of the TRASH™ Talk posts will look like, so...yeah.  

Have a great week everyone!  Remember: get Elf Bites to 10k reads for more!
