Memes come and memes go. And sadly so do people. Good people too, such as Ryan McHenry, originator of one of the best memes in recent years.
The originator of the Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Cereal meme has passed away at the tender age of 27 after losing his battle against cancer.
McHenry was diagnosed with a form of bone cancer soon after setting his meme in motion. It’s a strange old meme, with McHenry trying to force-feed breakfast cereal to actor Ryan Gosling.
In honor of McHenry passing away, Gosling actually posted a video of himself enjoying a bowl of cereal. It might not be much, but it’s a touching tribute.
