There's a somewhat infamous /tv/ “favorite movie lines” thread on 4chan in which someone humorously misquoted a character from American Psycho saying, "Patrick, it's you!! You're the American Psycho?!!" Another user replied, “He didn't say that,” escalating the thread into a barrage of ironic shitposts inspired by the OP's American Psycho joke. For example, an image of Frodo captioned, “That's why I'm the Lord of the Rings , not you Sam.” Putting movie titles in movie lines has since become a p…

"People of the Internet! Of the world wide web! Of Reddit, of Instagram ! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when men do not appreciate (or yearn for) Lord of the Rings memes, when sad souls on the Internet do not desire convenient humor, when Lord of the Rings marathons lose their comfort and appeal. But it is not this day. An hour of viruses and responsibilities, when the Age of Internet Nerds comes crashing down, but it is not this day! This day,…

People who write horoscopes are always flattering the reader with vague positivity and flowery compliments, often making astrology feel insufferably boring. What do the planetary alignments say about the fact that I'm an emotional wreck who habitually sabotages healthy relationships? That's what I want to know. Even most relatable astrology memes fail to realize the comedic potential of the format. Shitposter @nick_vyssotsky did a little astrological trolling with his series of zodiac signs as…

With all the perils and tragedies of the world (you know, wars, pandemics, inflation) and the agonizing stresses of everyday life, it can often feel as though the last thing on our minds is how we can press pause on the insanity and take a break from it all. It can be incredibly difficult to stop all the overthinking and anxiety that is a natural part of life, but scrolling through a stupid and funny memes and shitposts is sure to give you a small bit of respite from the tortures of reality. Th…

Dinosaurs were probably the most badass creatures to ever walk the planet. As one dino-geek so eloquently put it on Twitter, “I don't even understand people bored by dinosaurs. They were giant bird lizards that got murdered by space, what's your fucken problem.” If that damn Chicxulub impactor hadn't annihilated all the dinosaurs, who knows what the earth would look like today. Maybe dinosaurs would still rule the world. Would there be memes? Would dinosaurs be making memes about themselves? I…

Last Sunday I had my whole week planned out. I did all the laundry, stopped by the grocery store, and went home to food prep for the next several days. Kale salad for Monday. Spinach salad for Tuesday. Chicken salad sandwich for Wednesday. Pasta salad with a side of fruit salad for Thursday. Tuna salad on a Mediterranean salad for Friday. I know it sounds like a lot of salad, but I was determined to have a healthy week so that I could feel good about myself when that inevitable sloppy Saturday…

The other day I saw a sign outside of a smoothie shop that said “when life gives you strawberries, make a smoothie." It was upsetting. For one, they completely missed the point of the proverbial phrase they were referencing (when life gives you lemons, make lemonade). But even worse was the blatantly low-effort attempt to be clever. Have some self respect.

Too. much. cuteness.

Most memes are pretty simple. There's a plethora of different meme formats all basically expressing the same idea: good thing vs. bad thing. One popular version of this genre that's been circulating lately features an image of Mr. Incredible looking pleased juxtaposed with a desaturated and reverse toonified version of Mr. Incredible looking disturbed or traumatized. Via KnowYourMeme These memes are used to make some sort of comparison between two disparate situations. For example, the smell of…

Honse and Bode walked so Goots could run. Who the hell is Goots, you ask? He's a big fat goose chillin' on a sunny patch of grass, that's who. Via KnowYourMeme According to Know Your Meme , the original image of Goots can be traced back to a 2014 Flickr post, but Goots was elevated to viral status in early 2022 after @CroixAlmer posted a tweet claiming that they “made an algorithm look at 1,000 memes on Twitter and then produce its own, and this is what I got.” Included in the tweet is a versio…
