4	* No one sings a VillainSong like Gaston! It's made up by his InUniverse fanboys, no less. It's also lampshaded in both the musical and the 2017 version.
5	-->No one thinks up these endless refrains like Gaston!
6	** A [[BlackComedy specific variation]] of the above, popular on [=YouTube=] and Reddit comments sections, for references to his [[DisneyVillainDeath inevitable demise]]: "''No one schemes like Gaston! No one memes like Gaston! [[CrossesTheLineTwice No one falls to his death as he screams like Gaston!]]''"
7	** Even prior to Website/YouTube, this was a RunningGag in ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'':
8	--->NO ONE ORDERS ''DECAF'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcKfe9v4tqg LIKE GASTON]]!
9	** And it's been extended further, due to the 2016 version of Hurricane Gaston in the Atlantic: "Nooooooooo onnnnneeeeee storms like Gaston! Makes cloud forms like Gaston! Disrupts meteorological norms like Gaston!"
10	** Mixing up the rhymes in "Gaston" to hilarious results.
11	---> Gosh it disturbs me to be you, Gaston, looking so down in the lumps!\
12	Every guy wants to see you, Gaston, [[ToiletHumor even when taking your dumps]]!
13	** "Gaston" memes saw a resurgence in popularity in 2017 due to the [[Film/BeautyAndTheBeast2017 live-action remake]], where the song became a word replacement meme in the same vein as "[[Series/LazyTown We Are Number One]]".
14	* "Be our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]One of the film's most popular songs, which, due to its popularity, has spawned countless parodies.[[/labelnote]]
15	** "Try the grey stuff, it's delicious!"[[labelnote:Explanation]]A line in "Be Our Guest", which has led commenters (i.e. on Website/YouTube) to question what exactly the grey stuff is. Ride/WaltDisneyWorld finally answered it at the Be Our Guest restaurant inspired by the film: It's cookies-and-cream (read: Oreo cookie) mousse.[[/labelnote]]
16	* "'''''[[GetOut GET OOOOOOOUUUUUUUT!!!!!!!!!!]]'''''"[[labelnote:Explanation]]The Beast's angry demand to Belle to...well, get out. Fans quickly used its image to state against misconceptions or mis-findings.[[/labelnote]]
17	** "It's ''FORBIDDEN!''"
18	* The scene where Gaston flips through and holds up Belle's book has become a popular "What am I reading?" meme.
19	** "How can you read this? There's no pictures!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]What Gaston originally says during the scene. In 2020, it became a popular snowclone to mock overused memes, albeit in a modified state: "How can I laugh at this? There's no [X]!", with [X] being a popular meme at the time.[[/labelnote]]
20	* "I'll never get this boner!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Maurice is supposed to be saying "I'll never get this bone-headed contraption to work!", but Rex Everhart's delivery somehow makes it sound like the word "boner". Found good use in WebAnimation/TheGastonTrilogy.[[/labelnote]]
21	* Videos that remix the scene where [=LeFou=] says "I'll strike up the band!" for Gaston's wedding to make the band play different songs are quite popular.
22	* As of 2016, comparisons between Gaston and the ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates'' character [[http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/0/07/Harold_portrait.png/revision/latest?cb=20160430013139 Arthur]] are common, with the latter even being called "The Blonde Gaston".
23	* One scene from [[WebAnimation/TheGastonTrilogy "Gaston's Ultimate Mission to Obtain Some Taco Bell"]], which was granted a resurgence in popularity during 2017, became very popular thanks to a post on Website/{{Tumblr}}: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3z2j6F8fZII WHOAAA, slow down, Maurice!]]"
24	* "More beer?" "What for? Nothing helps."
25	* Beast pointing angrily at the door after his politer attempts to get Belle to come downstairs fail. Often captioned with variations on "this bitch". Humorously enough, it had memetic status amongst the animators as "the [[Series/TheHoneymooners Jackie Gleason]] face."
26	* Gaston's the winner of the No Belle Prize. [[labelnote:Explanation]]It's a pun on Nobel Prize and Gaston ''didn't'' win Belle over.[[/labelnote]]
27	* People who eat a lot of eggs or express a desire to eat a lot of eggs might get called "Gaston". [[labelnote:Explanation]]In Gaston's famous villain song, there's a verse where he mentions eating four dozen eggs every day as a young man for the gains, and then he boasts that he's upped it to ''five'' dozen eggs as an adult.[[/labelnote]]
