Outrageous Opossum Memes for the Trash Eaters and Street Dwellers of the World

If there were one animal on this planet that could adequately embody the anxiety-ridden, chaotic nature of humanity today, that animal would be an opossum. These little trash babies may look like an enormous rat but they are actually more related to a kangaroo and are even weirder than you might think. They're interesting critters with enormous black marble eyes, no lips, spiky randomized teeth, and a worm-like tail that would make anyone squeamish.  Sometimes they scream, sometimes they play d3ad, but they're always consistent about one thing— being simultaneously adorable and hideous at the same time. For some reason, these charming neighborhood marsupials are ever present in most suburban lives and have burrowed their tiny human hands into our hearts and into our trash bins. They may hiss when they're afraid, but fear not the shaggy oversized trash cat, the muppet hand inside them that controls them will spare you.
