Since Umineko No Naku Koro Ni is in the same franchise as Higurashi, memes were bound to happen.
When a certain team of translators began releasing their patches, even more memes were bound to happen, considering how it usually works with visual novels.
And then when about half the cast started trolling not only the other characters but the readers themselves...well, look down.
Please add entries in the following format:
The meme. [[hottip:Explanation:The explanation behind the meme.]] Explanation
Like this.
The small bombs are responsible for EVERYTHING. Explanation
A joke about the fourth arc where Battler claims that Small Bombs Did It.
Are you starting to see how omnipotent mackerel is?
*BEEP* Explanation

"You are incompetent."Explanation
Beato's red truth in Episode 2 towards Battler.
"You just lost The Game."
Colored text debates!Even on this very wikiand beyond!Explanation
Colored text has been given memetic usages when discussing Umineko.
MAGICAL GOHDA CHEF note The entirety of Happy Maria is a giant meme-making machine, since no one seems to know what the actual lyrics are supposed to be. Either that, or it's simply the worst case of Gratuitous EnglishThey Just Didn't Care about As Long as It Sounds Foreign. Some other widely used examples are "Witch's golden dreamer", "I'm gonna piss in fire (for magical breeding power)", "Witch's golden bacon", and "You're breaking my broken undershow".
BERNKaSTELOS: THE META WORLD WOULD LIKE TO REMIND YOU THAT THE WEIGHTY REDHEADED ADVISER / TASTY COMPANION BURGER WILL NEVER THREATEN TO STAB YOU, AND IN FACT CANNOT SPEAK HER NAME.
Used in a similar manner as "Meanwhile at Valve", there's "Meanwhile, at Witch Hunt..." Explanation
A joke about how long translations usually take.
Post the current status of the translation when there's been no movement in some time and people rage. Post a fake update and people rage. Post an actual update and people will still think you're a troll until they confirm it for themselves.
Someone did, however, create a possible opening for one. Having seen that, it's a shame they never created the actual anime, since it clearly would have been really awesome.
A popular fad is to photoshop Kinzo or Beatrice's Trollface onto images. Sometimes with OH DESIRE! incorporated into the caption or as a pun (such as A Streetcar Named Desire). The general consensus is that "Everything's Better With Kinzo. No exceptions."
Not to say that the rest of the cast is left out, as the sprites are fun to exploit. There's even a fake screenshot maker for even more craziness.
OH DESIRE Because chipmunks make everything better. You'll stop breathing 40 seconds in
Battler is often portrayed as Phoenix Wright due to his dramatic finger pointing and denial of witches. The rest of the cast sometimes takes on other roles as well.
While putting matching up the scrolling ED "Trust Me" from Durarara!! with characters from other series is a meme in and of itself, pairing it with Umineko is one of the most popular, if Pixiv is any indication.
Jessica is as straight as a rainbow, and bats for the other team.
