kim jong-un

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is reportedly in "grave danger" after a botched heart surgery. The rumors began circulating after he missed his grandfather Kim Il-sung's birthday celebration on April 15th. Since then, there have been various conflicting news reports, some claiming that Kim may have died, while others say he is "alive and well." Predictably, memers have taken the opportunity to make a plethora of morbid jokes. 

All we have left to say is, rip to the guy who performed the surgery.

As the world crumbles under various economic and health crises, the powers that be decided to mix some serious rumors of Kim Jong-Un's death into the absolute shit show. News of the North Korean dictator's death or grave illness following heart surgery began pouring in last week and have been swirling around since. But the most fascinating and ridiculous result of the news has been the internet freaking out about his sister, Kim Yo-Jong. 

As soon as speculation about Kim Jong-Un's health started popping up, so did news of who would take over for him. His sister, Kim-Yo-Jong, is the most logical successor. And as photos began popping up of the younger Kim, so did simp-tastic tweets. The idea of people stanning the member of the dangerous family is both hilarious and just...so stupid. But it's all pretty entertaining. So we've put together some of the most pathetic, simp-y tweets we could find. And a few from people who are just flummoxed by the "bad takes." Happy scrolling.

North Korea's state media KCNA released photos of the supreme leader of the reclusive state riding a white horse up Mountain Paektu and that brought on a few light-hearted quips. KCNA's release said: "He, sitting on the horseback atop Mt Paektu, recollected with deep emotion the road of arduous struggle he covered for the great cause of building the most powerful country with faith and will as firm as Mt Paektu."

North Korea released a smiling picture of Kim Jong-Un and were VERY specific about pointing out the fact that the image was untouched. Obviously the first thing the internet did when they got a hold of the image was to touch it up a bit. The results were glorious.

We know that the Donald Trump memes can get tired, but this format is far from political. This trending format features photos of the President of the United States and Kim Jong-Un during their late June meeting in North Korea. A couple photos are used, making some of the memes about people correcting each other, and others more of a Mike Wazowski Explaining Things meme. They're all relatable and really, really funny. 

We just celebrated the 4th anniversary of Lucky Luciano's infamous "You know I had to do it to em" tweet, and astonishingly - the meme is not dead. We thought it might be fun to celebrate with some of our favorite memes of the magical moment. 

"30 Illegal Photos Smuggled Out of North Korea" is a parody meme of a clickbait article of the same name originally published by OtherBuzz.com. The original article featured clickbait images as advertisements above the actual article, which in turn have been made fun of for their misleading nature. Here are some of the ones the internet has conjured up!

Leave it to the internet to create some hilarious memes! 

Some of the best moments in Trump's presidency for meme worthy content have come from his meeting with a number of world leaders. Whether its Shinzō Abe , or the entire G7, Trump has provided us with endless reasons to appreciate his nasfwg attitude. But few things have been as radical as Trump's intended Space Force to protect from the "impending alien invasion" (there isn't one, but did he mean international or interstellar?).

Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un had a historical meeting today in Singapore. The meeting, during which Trump announced the United States would cease military exercises near the Korean peninsula, was broadcast live internationally. Jong Un, in response, pledged that North Korea would remain committed to ridding themselves of nuclear weapons. 

While the surprising meeting is an exciting step for international diplomacy, it's also proved to be an exciting step for this month of memes. Photographs of the two leaders are being meme'd to oblivion on Reddit - and the results have been dank, dirty, and absolutely hilarious.
