When will the Baby Yoda meme die?

Rolling Stone

"Baby Yoda is still a thing. Like a pretty big thing," says Jon Blistein. "The de facto star of Disney+’s The Mandalorian has (5) different related topics on KnowYourMeme.com: Baby Yoda itself, Baby Yoda Drinking Soup, Baby Yoda Turns on the Music, Baby Yoda Tattoo and the obviously questionable Baby Yobama (a Barack Obama/Baby Yoda face-swap). The Child seemingly peaked on Google trends December 4th — a couple of days after the episode in which Baby Yoda drank soup — with a perfect interest score of 100. The meme admittedly dipped a bit after that, but as The Mandalorian nears the end of its first season, Baby Yoda seems set to defy the usual life expectancy of most memes and ride off into 2020 as strong as ever."
