Mr. Peanut's Dab At The Macy's Thanksgiving Parade Is 'Most Iconic' Of 2016

Twitter

We've had Brexit, the presidential election, and now the Mr. Peanut dab.

What a year it's been.

The world changed again today at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

It's the 90th anniversary, and Mr. Peanut knew he had to pull something out of the bag to make it extra special.

So he dabbed. Twice.

My boi Mr. Peanut representing.

It was just a couple of cheeky dabs, but it did not go unnoticed.

Quite the opposite. Now it's been hailed as the most iconic dab of 2016 and we couldn't agree more.

He's an inspiration for all of us.

This is 2016.

What a world we live in.

So much dab.

Please wake me up when 2017 is here.

What he said.

The dab is right up there with the skater dude who showed off his moves during a TV interview earlier this year. Remember that?

The story is Calgary City Council in Alberta, Canada, was finally lifting a 30-year ban on backyard skate ramps.

A reporter when down to a skate park for a TV piece about the news, when she bumped into this guy:

Yep. This guy.

He signed off the interview by saying "I'm so stoked, my dudes -- skrrrt."

Then he breaks out one of the most important dabs of this year. Obviously, the reporter was lost for words.

The Mr. Peanut dab wasn't the only thing that left Thanksgiving parade viewers confused and excited -- did anyone else see LunchMoney Lewis in a turkey hat?

A few questions: Mainly, who is LunchMoney Lewis and why is LunchMoney Lewis?

It's just... there are no words, you know?

Certainly a bold wardrobe move from LunchMoney, very strong. He's not that well-known, so maybe it's some weird marketing ploy.

It's worked:

This is 2016. Embrace it -- it's probably going to get weirder.
