Oh boy, our friends at Cracked are back at it again with a spicy debate about the worst things one can imagine when considering living in the infamous, Matrix. I mean, hey, maybe we already are. We were just looking at a wild thread about people's most unsettling, yet thrilling, "glitch in the Matrix" moments.
There are universal moments that people experience, some weird hard rules about our universe, and just some straight up weird coincidences that would give anyone reason to believe that we're living in a poorly run simulation. People see what they consider to be glitches in the matrix all the time, and it's extremely tempting to believe that it's all a simulation, man.
Anyone else feel like their meme standards have taken a nose dive of late? Political fatigue and a general contempt for the world seem to have skewed our taste towards the very dumb. This past weekend we were graced by meme that easily meets this very low criteria. According to Know Your Meme, the trend began on 4chan, after a user shared a still of Paul Allen (Jared Leto) in American Psycho. The intentionally miscaptioned still reads "Patrick, it's you!! You're the American Psycho?!!," to which another 4chan user replies "He didn't say that." After other users chimed in, the thread grew to over 100 replies. And now it looks like it made an impact in the memeosphere.
Following the 4chan thread, the format started to pop up on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Users seemed to be scrambling to create (and share) the incredibly stupid and easy-to-make memes. Even gamers got in on the joke, creating their own versions for releases such as Death Stranding and Final Fantasy. While it's hard to present these memes as the "best" of anything, they're pretty damn entertaining. Here's hoping we see more dumb and easy content in the coming months. This year needs all the help it can get.

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about people's most trippy, "glitch in the matrix" moments. Apparently, Neil deGrasse Tyson suggests that there's more than 50/50 odds that we're living in some kind of simulation. Even if that's true, there isn't much of anything to be done about it. This simulation still has its rules. That being said, some of these stories are chilling. Like, the dude who went for the bike ride that never happened, but it actually did.
It may not be Halloween, but that doesn't mean we can't get our fix of spooky stories in the off-season. Scary stories are one of those things that most people enjoy hearing, but not experiencing themselves. They may give you nightmares but at the end of the day, that adrenaline rush is totally worth it. Now onto the creepy stories! And check out even more on eBaum's World!
We've brought you Keanu content before, but the dude is so worth every meme and tweet that we thought we'd deliver another batch of wholesome Keanu-related posts. And never forget that you're breathtaking and Keanu would be proud of you.
The "Woman Yelling At Cat" meme that the internet has been obsessed with has been trending since May of this year - that's a whopping six months for those of you who abhor math. That's an impressive feat for a meme that started on Twitter. Since its creation, we've seen an impressive number of memes that fall into the format, with extensive roundups on both Memebase and Ebaum's World - and a staggering 230 images in the Know Your Meme gallery. With stats like that, it's safe to say that this is the woman of the year. And to celebrate its prolificity, we've put all of the best examples in one convenient place.
There is just as much info on the small internet as there is on the big internet.
There's no doubt that The Matrix is one of the best films ever made. Released in 1999, visual effects of such high quality were virtually unseen before. But would The Matrix be as good if it's visual effects weren't as good? After watching Studio 188's low cost version of The Matrix, we can say, YES. This low budget version of the classic is as good (or better?) than the original, purely because of the creativity that went into recreating The Matrix on a low, low budget. And it will have you crying with laughter. This will make your week.
Keanu fans can rejoice! Now in addition to Bill and Ted 3, we also get a fourth Matrix installment with Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss and Lana Wachowski all set to return.
While tons of people on Twitter are clearly stoked about the announcement, others are skeptical that another installment will be any good, which makes sense given how The Matrix 2 and 3 turned out...
Anyway, you can make your own call on that when the movie is released in coming years, but in the mean time please enjoy some of the following Twitter reactions and memes!
