40 memes is the new 30 memes

If enough people have experienced a thing, chances are there's a meme for it floating around somewhere. Slept through your alarm this morning? There's about a million memes for that. Finished a video game's main storyline before promising that one NPC you'd help find his lost chickens? There's definitely a meme for that. Make a complete fool of yourself in front of your crush? You better believe there's a meme for that. Clogged the toilet at the local Applebee's because you were trying to dispo…

Remember when you first heard Billy Corgan sing "The world is a vampire?" Or are you Gen Z? Either way, the Smashing Pumpkins were right when they penned the tune back in the mid-'90s. It's really quite mind-boggling how little some things have changed since the advent of the grunge era. We are still feeling doomy as hell, hating the government, and feeling frustrated by the lack of opportunities presented to us and the rest of the non-billionaire class. If any music could capture our dissatisf…

Being quirky isn't all it's cracked up to be. But sometime over the past decade, the quality has become a desired one - and we're not just talking about individuals. Brands have started going the same route, trying to differentiate themselves from the norm to create brand recognition. Novelty, it seems, is attractive to consumers. Being a non-conformist, and appreciating non-conformist brands and products, make people feel as though they stand out in a crowd - a crowd that happens to fall all o…

They're OK

The other day I was watching a movie about cave paintings, and the narrator kept referring to the ancient murals as “art.” It got me thinking—did Stone Age humans draw pictures on the walls of caves out of some inherent desire to artistically express themselves, or were they really just making prehistoric memes ? Think about it. Memes are essentially a visual language used to communicate an idea to lots of strangers, the point being mass consumption of the message rather than credit to the auth…

Enjoy!

Wasting time is something of an art. If you've managed to master it, you're probably skilled at finding ways to pass the time with very little exertion of the mind or body. And hopefully, you're happy while doing it. Some people enjoy playin sudoku when they want to busy themselves. Others prefer to read a book dive down another weird YouTube hole of horror. Our preference? Well, obviously, it involves a whole lot of memes . And tweets. Really anything that is remotely funny. And we've got stuf…

Welcome back to “reality,” Memebase lovers and haters. The latter of whom for some reason continue to comment with their gripes

iCarly stans, it's time to move on

I am a morning person , and I am not ashamed. I know that being prone to wake up early is not the typical way of being, but it is beneficial when you're a person with a job and a life, like me! I have always been an early riser. Until I was ten years old, I would go to bed at 8 PM and wake up at 5:30 AM. Every morning, I would go downstairs, read the funnies, eat breakfast with my dad, and watch The Nanny and Full House on the TV. In college, I would regularly wake up at 4 in the morning to sit…

We here at Memebase feel that history memes are a special breed. I usually have one of two reactions to them. A knowing smirk, chuckle, or nod at a meme dealing with history that I'm well-versed in. Shock, horror, and an hour-long voracious time-traveling trip through the depths of Wikipedia. Generally speaking, I mostly react in the former manner. It's good to feel smart. But every now and then a meme will introduce me to an era, event, or cultural tidbit that just leaves me feeling ill, but a…
