If you're a gamer and currently struggling with lockdowns and quarantine, you're actually one of the lucky ones.

It's a great time to revisit games, and somehow, the post-apocalyptic nature of Fallout feels a bit relevant these days. So we've put together a batch of memes and tidbits devoted the role-playing games. Y'know, so you can still get your fix even when you're not going at it.

This one goes out to all the gamers. We know most of you are gaming your quarantine away with your fancy games.

Once upon a time our world had no knowledge of this "invisible enemy" called coronavirus. Things were simpler.

If you're a gamer or aware at all of the effects of gaming, you probably know that the media is extremely quick to throw blame on games for violence. We here at Memebase know that's ridiculous, and want the world to know that competition and strategy have nothing to do with the pain and suffering that's being inflicted everywhere in the world. If anything, games are keeping us sane. So when Grandma or your stepdad decide to accuse your hobby of making the world worse, show 'em these memes. They may not change their minds, but they're definitely amusing.

If you are at all invested in meme culture, you've probably see this meme: 

The absurd idea that all of planet Earth is Ohio has been an overwhelmingly successful image macro, and, as we've learned in the last few weeks, has inspired many equally absurd variations. Some are more inventive than others, replacing "Ohio Earth" with references to games or anime instead of just another place. Our favorite? Easily the meme that suggests the world is just chicken tenders. We could go for some right now.
