Although "Anti-Hero" topped the Hot 100 for six weeks, "Heat Waves" was named the most popular song of the year by Billboard. In the Hot 100's 64-year history, the Glass Animals track is the [longest-charting song ever](https://www.billboard.com/music/chart-beat/glass-animals-heat-waves-by-the-numbers-hot-100-1235157173/) at 91 weeks.

**"Heat Waves," Glass Animals**

The most popular song of 2022, according to Billboard's Hot 100 chart?

This year in TV and movies has been the "age of peak intellectual property," [Elamin Abdelmahmoud writes](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/elaminabdelmahmoud/lightyear-top-gun-maverick-jurassic-world-too-many-movies). "Hollywood has learned the safe route, found a reliable pattern: Every time studios push this button, $13 comes out. Why wouldn’t they keep pushing it? But at what cost to originality?"

_**Top Gun: Maverick**_

The most lucrative box office smash to hit theaters in 2022?

Estelle Tang [wrote](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/tomiobaro/best-movies-2022) that "people who have experienced a contentious parental relationship will ride harder for this movie than anyone else." Given that _Everything Everywhere_ became A24's biggest worldwide [box office success](https://www.digitalspy.com/movies/a40272880/everything-everywhere-all-at-once-global-box-office-record/) to date, guess that's a lot of people.

_**Everything Everywhere All at Once**_

The most lucrative A24 film came out in 2022. What was it?

Invented on a [sister road trip](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/paigeskinner/hes-a-10-tiktok-meme-creators-are-two-sisteres-mary-and), this meme swept the online world as a way to judge dating standards playfully. _He’s a 2, but he has a trust fund. He’s a 10, but he only communicates via Snapchat._ Fun for everyone!

**He's a 10 but...**

Which of the following is a real meme that went viral in 2022?

The John Mulaney–Olivia Munn [drama](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/scaachikoul/try-guys-ned-fulmer-adam-levine-cheating-wife-guys) is from 2021! Time is an unreal concept. [All the other alleged cheaters](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/tomiobaro/cheating-scandals-2022) are from this calendar year.

**John Mulaney from comedy**

The viral (alleged) cheating scandal that DIDN'T happen in 2022?

Yes, even pilk, the Pepsi–milk hybrid that smelled "the kind of bad you want to keep smelling," [according](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stefficao/pilk-tiktok-drink-recipe-trend) to Steffi Cao.

**All of the above**
