Surprise: hip hop royalty N.W.A. and Game of Thrones are a match made in heaven.
To celebrate the release of the new film Straight Outta Compton, Dr. Dre and beatsbydre gave us a beautiful Internet gift: StraightOuttaSomewhere.com. This meme generator turns any old photo into a badass black and white image that would make N.W.A. proud -- the art is even adorned with the "Straight Outta" logo.
Of course, the Internet responded enthusiastically, with users creating icons stamped with their own hometowns -- "Straight Outta Boise," anyone? Then, Game of Thrones news website Winter Is Coming had an idea. Why not get the fine citizens of Westeros and Essos involved?
Winter Is Coming asked its audience to Tweet their best GoT themed memes -- and the fans delivered.
