The past is full of fascinating facts, dramatic battles, and lots of questionable fashion choices. But where do we learn about these glorious (and sometimes horrifying) times of the past? Through textbooks? Too boring. Through documentaries? Sometimes - just watch out for Giorgio Tsoukalos's rendition of aliens building the pyramids with lasers. So where? The internet has come to the rescue with history memes - the perfect cure for your boredom. These little gems of hilarity take the stuffy and serious topic of history and add a healthy dose of humor to the mix. And let's be honest, they're probably more accurate than some of the "educational" late-night History Channel specials. So, the next time you're feeling down about your lack of historical knowledge, fear not. Just scroll through some history memes and you'll be an expert in no time. Who knows, maybe aliens did build the pyramids with lasers after all. So, put down that boring textbook and let these 22 memes do the teaching.
