• Less than three days after the first official trailer was released, people all over the internet started making references to the song featured in the trailer (There are no strings on me!) in discussions about advanced technology or robotics.
• Marvel's Twitter response to the trailer leak—"Dammit, HYDRA"— was briefly memetic as well.
• "He's Fast and She's Weird."^note Maria Hill's explaining to Cap in Layman's Terms on what the Maxinoff twins are capable of became memetic, with the most common meme is to compare the statement to Dash and Violet.
• The reveal that Hawkeye has a farm has lead to quite a lot of fanart and speculation.
• The Vision being described as Tony and Bruce's love child.
• The casting of Thomas Kretschmann led to a resurgance in Downfall memes.^explanation Kretschmann plays Fegelein, a Memetic Troll that Hitler is constantly asking to be found, making him the butt of many Hitler Rants videos.
• The scene of Ultron emerging from the darkness to interrupt the Avengers' get-together has been a frequent victim of photoshop, replacing Ultron with various characters. The most recurring replacements seem to be Spider-Man (which is now a bit Hilarious in Hindsight) and Baymax.
• From the third trailer, someone photoshopped a GIF of Spider-Man with the Avengers jumping together into battle◊. There's also a Running Gag in various social media to make a joke of the Hulk looking like he was taking a group selfie.
• "You didn't see that coming?" (Pietro's line on attacking Hawkeye, too fast for a normal human to follow)
• After the reveal of Quicksilver's accent, many people ask if he wants to go bowling.
• There's a popular fanart circulating around where Hawkeye delivers "You step out that door, you're an Avenger" to the twins, only for Spider-Man to jump at the call (this also can be considered Hilarious in Hindsight, as that's exactly what Tony makes Peter in Avengers: Infinity War).
  "Woo-hoo!"
• "Language!"^note A reference to a Running Gag about Cap's admonishing Tony for using bad language and the rest of the team picking it up to mock him
• Ultron decides to destroy humanity after spending a few minutes on the Internet.
• Cuttlefish! ^note Ulysses Klaue's greatest fear
• "Elevator's not worthy.◊"^note In reference to Captain America's line explaining why a machine being able to lift Mjolnir doesn't necessarily prove that it's worthy to do so.
• Similarly, images of Thor using Mjolnir to pull Superdickery, with the caption "Thor is a jerk."
• Due to the absence of Pepper Potts and the fact that the entire movie happens because of Tony's effort to create Ultron, some fans joked that if Pepper wasn't busy running Stark Industries, she would have unplugged the program and the entire movie wouldn't happen. Also popular is "Pepper reacts to Vision" fan art due to we never saw her doing that in the movie.
• "You get killed, walk it off." ^note A motivational line from Cap in the final battle that has since been used as a rallying cry for Quicksilver's resurrection.
• Tony's "Please be a secret door, please be a secret door, please be a secret door...yay!" appears to be getting a lot of play around the gaming table, judging by online comments.
• "Age of Ultron is a flop." ^note A joke that some fans make due to the fact that the second film didn't immediately topple box office records like the first Avengers film did, although it's already successfully grossed over a billion worldwide at the box office. Which Disney seemed to agree on.
• "Week of Ultron"^note After people began to realize that the age of Ultron's rampage in the movie only lasts for about a week, it became a recurring theme to jack on the movie for only lasting that long.
• What is Hawkeye's shield made of? Overlapping with Black Comedy.
• Thor: "How old are you?!" Ultron: "Not telling." ^explanation An alternative tearing to the film's "Age of Ultron" subtitle (making it look like Ambiguous Syntax), with a crude question mark getting added to the title card
• In a Black Comedy way, fans joked (and as pointed out by How It Should Have Ended) that Pietro should've listened to "Time in a Bottle" to learn how to evade or redirect those bullets.
• "BOOM! You looking for this!?"^Explanation Rhodey's Bond One-Liner for his "War Machine story".
• Though such words existed before, "Fine. I'll do it myself." in the context of Thanos putting on the Gauntlet in The Stinger has definitely gained steam.
• If You Feel Dumb, Just Remember Cap Tried To Choke A Robot.^explanation During his fight with Ultron, Cap once gets him in a chokehold. Since chokes are for applying pressure to the trachea and the blood vessels of the neck to cut off air supply and the blood supply to the brain, neither which Ultron would have, Cap comes off as stupid.
• "Maybe I am an X."^Explanation A screenshot of The Vision looking at his hands while saying "Maybe I am a monster.", which became an exploitable snowclone.
• "Clearly, you've never made an omelette." ^Explanation Originated as a demotivational poster of Ultron's quip about making omelettes being misattributed to Tony. It eventually mutated to either replace the "made an omelette" part with something else or captioning similar close-ups of characters smugly smiling with something also similar.
  • "Clearly, you don't own an air fryer."^Explanation A specific variant of the "you've never made an omlette" meme that took off independently of the original thanks to its idiosyncratic specificity and the increased popularity of air fryers in the late 2010s. The line is often brought up in discussions of air fryers, and the original meme is further parodied by attaching it to images of air fryers or similarly smug characters.
