Do you remember the early 2000's? The time of emo scenes popping up in every local mall, the time of skinny jeans and useless belly belts, the time of millennial prime, and the time when dog memes started to base themselves as one of the internet's comedy pinnacles. Dog memes have been with us since Destiny's Child were still together, dog memes have been with us since before Friends aired its last season, and dog memes have been with us since we thought covering an entire eye with our bangs was cool. Dog memes are a staple of every millennial's life, because we grew up together.

If you're like us, a millennial getting older and more nostalgic, you'll appreciate this youthful collection of delightful dog memes. They're super nostalgic, and as you scroll further down they take you through internet comedy's memory lane. Or, internet comedy's dog park. Yeah, it's a much more accurate description. Put some MCR in the background and at least 60 colorful bracelets on each forearm - this is going to be nostalgic as woof.

    How dogs see road trips.
    via inyourfacespacecoyote

  • For a dog, a road trip is a magical experience. It's going in an autonomous metal animal that takes them with their families to see how large the world is. Because it's definitely bigger than the backyard and the dog park.

    Think again before judging a dog based on its breed. This brave Chihuahua ran into a burning Vet Clinic when it realized that the Tech trapped inside hadn't been bitten on the face yet. MOMENTS

    reminder not to put sunglasses on your dog for a fun picture in the sun - this is actually very bad for the dog as it gives them a false sense of confidence and makes them look really cool which can be dangerous when you take them off again and they have to go back to Normal Dog
    via inyourfacespacecoyote

  • Sorry, but every Normal Dog is already a Cool Dog, because they're dogs. Being a dog makes you instantly cool, with or without being called “Normal” or “Cool”. All dogs are cool.

    Paul Feig @paulfeig Someone should invent an alarm clock where the alarm is the sound of a dog about to throw up. Because nothing wakes me up and gets me out of bed faster than that.
