Harry Potter

You may have thought that magic would stop Harry Potter from falling into the usual mid-life crisis pitfalls that befall us all, but you'd be wrong. Or at least you would be, according to SomeECards, who have reimagined Harry Potter as a slightly dull, balding white-collar worker. These funny but sad stories probably aren't what J. K. Rowling had in mind for Harry following the events in Deathly Hallows, but I guess even wizards peak at some point, and then, as with the rest of us, it's downhill from there.

Fresh off the meme press. Some of the hottest and funniest memes of the day. So dive in and enjoy all the wares we have to offer. Who knows, maybe you'll find a new favorite. But if you're looking for even more amazing memes to keep you laughing all day long, this perfect list of funny memes will have you in stitches. Or if you are looking to find inspiration in your doldrums of boredom, these hilarious memes will help you do just that.

This wonderful Twitter account takes a look at the world of Hogwarts without the rose colored glasses. We can easily forget how much darker the humor in the iconic movies would be with just a few elements changed. In all fairness, Harry Potter did possess an uncanny knack for always using the Expelliarmus spell in circumstances that certainly called for something with a little more pepper in it. 

We're back with another gallery of procrastination material. This batch is a healthy mix of spicy and stupid shitposts, with an heavy emphasis on short and sweet irreverent tweets. These memes might not add meaning to your life, but we hope they make you smile and forget about the insane state of the world for a little while.

It's impossible to not read these in your head with Alan Rickman's voice. This account is gold. 

JK Rowling might be on a lot of shit lists right now, but we're always looking for new ways to enjoy the Potterverse. These tweets from @TVsCarlKinsella more than fit the bill. They add much-needed sass and irreverence to a series that can often be somewhat corny and predictable. And we could all use some spicy humor during times like this. 

Alright alright, let's just get this out of the way: JK Rowling isn't anyone's favorite person right now. That being said, we aren't going to stop loving the Harry Potter series anytime soon. Accordingly, the following are some hilarious and clever moments from the books that didn't quite make it into the movies, and honestly we're not really sure why.

Tumblr is a place of unexpected joy and amusement, so it's wholly unsurprising that some serious magical genius would be borne of its pages of insanity. User rasec-wizzlbang suggested a world in which Harry Potter and Willy Wonka coexist - and the latter is absolutely loathed by the Ministry of Magic. If you're a fan of either, you'll be more than capable of suspending your disbelief. And it will be absolutely worth it.

The Harry Potter series is a (somewhat innocent) household name, but once you read these comics it will never be the same again. Sarah Dunlavey's comics will ruin your favorite wizards forever but in a good, hilarious, and scandalous way. Welcome to the dark side (see what I did there?) of Harry Potter and co, where they don't hold back. Confused? Scroll through and see what I mean... 

It feels like Twitter's been talking about JK Rowling for weeks now, but we're happy to report that the latest buzz has nothing to do with her upsetting transphobic views or tweets. Instead, the flood of memes about "Giuseppe Stromboli" are the result of a hilarious fake Twitter exchange between @MNateShyamalan and the "author" of the beloved Harry Potter books.  The Twitter user claims that Rowling had given him the power to make changes in the Wizarding World. The screen shot of the "conversation" with the author indicates her horror at the fact that he'd changed Potter's name to "Giuseppe Stromboli." Twitter seems to love an Italian joke, and made quick work of flooding the site with Stromboli/Potterverse memes. Here are our favorites.

JK Rowling is once again back in the limelight for yet another Karen move: this time she's signed an open letter calling for an end to online "cancel culture" on the grounds that she advocates for "open debate and freedom of thought and speech." This all sounds well and good until you remember that she's repeatedly been in hot water for her problematic comments and views about trans people and is now claiming that she's the one being oppressed. It's all incredibly cringey and we're really enjoying the reaction memes and tweets, which you can scroll through below!
