A Meme Breakfast of 27 Funnies to Make You Start the Day on the Sunny Side

Do memes make us happy?

Yes, yes, they do.

Although it's far more complicated than the 10-word text splashed over a funny image, memes have a way of uplifting our spirits without fail. If you're having a bad day at the job site, your car glitch started this morning, or if you just woke up on the wrong side of the bed, there's really only one sure-fire cure: Memes.

Snort-laughing and blowing a small amount of air at your nose while staring at your phone is one way to dial down your overactive thoughts to a simmer. Funny reels, TikToks, and silly little pictures may seem like they're benign in the grander scheme of the greater good, but it's sometimes priceless to feel happy. With a semblance of a smile creeping up at the edge of your lips all because of a cat eating mac n cheese or a dog meme brightening your feed, memes have the power to turn things around.

They may not cure world hunger or initiate global peace agreements, but memes can cure the common man of the blues.

I'm old enough to remember a time before memes.
Oddly, this pre-internet era wasn't lacking in jokes, but didn't have memes to carry the same capacity of globally understood inside jokes. As if everyone on the internet was your buddy, memes became a secret language of hieroglyphs that only the chronically online understood. If you had AIM, a Reddit account, or even just scoured the interwebs in secret, you stumbled upon memes that made you feel like you were part of something bigger than yourself.
Although back then, it was just the philosoraptor or the “I did it” kid, these silly jokes and funny pictures made us feel good all the way down to the core. And they haven't stopped. 30 years of internet lore have come to this moment, where memes are a daily norm and can uplift our spirits with a side of sunny vibes, all with a single scroll of silliness.
