When in doubt, go the silly route. And there's no sillier route than a deep dive into humor.

When the day feels a bit dull, when the hour is longer than it seems, it looks like life lacks the flavor of silliness that makes everything brighter. "Silliness" is a broad term that includes many things, but we like to have a ready-to-consume silliness at the tip of our fingers - and that comes easily in the form of memes. But not just any memes - we're here at Animal Comedy, after all. We're firm believers that animal memes are the best. Animals are prime meme material.

But on some days that you need more than just a little superficial silliness, there's the absolute absurdity of animals to lean on. You can find it in many places, but the best humorous deep dive of the animal kingdom you can get is with a literal deep dive to the ocean of laughs aquatic animals offer. The horizon line you see from across the beach is the border between the "Silly" part of the animal kingdom and the "Absurd" part, under sea level.

There are some legit weird creatures down there beneath the waves. But take this fact with the base assumption that animal memes are the best at getting a boring day way more interesting - and you get a true deep dive into humor. So, come on, deep diver, and let's explore some animal absurdity the best way we know - through memes.

If you didn't think the ocean was weird enough, then you've just learned that orcas wear salmon on their heads as a "salmon hat". It's likely a temporary social "fad" or a form of playful behavior, but no one's actually sure what's going on there. The phenomenon was first observed in the late 80s and resurfaced in 2024, like the cycle of fashion - orcas have their own 80s nostalgia, it seems. Scientists believe it may indicate high food availability or serve as a way for well-fed orcas to carry leftovers. Still, reality suggests they're just trying to stay on brand with ocean fashion trends.
Just for good measure, here's another meme on the subject:
