The simultaneous upside and downside of memes is that they are expertly designed to be the perfect time waster. In the best-case scenario, this makes them a great fallback for any time you might be bored, at a loose end, or waiting for something. On the other hand, we have all had those instances where we should have been doing something useful, but we're looking at funny pictures instead.

While it has to be said that the memes below could be used for either purpose, we hope that they manifest in your life in such a way that it makes it better. Perhaps they will do that in a way that is more forgettable, but that doesn't have to be a bad thing. We don't need to have a photographic memory of every last minute that we have ever existed, or remember every meme that we have ever come across.
