These memes are for the stressed grad students who stay up all night finishing projects, constantly have no money, and question their career choice on the daily. We see your struggles, and we just want to remind you that it won't last forever. Now we just hope that you aren't forced to physically be in class this fall...

In case you're confused by the title, Carl Jung was a prominent Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst in the 20th century. And now that you've had a sufficient groan, have some complimentary mental health memes!

Are you a smart person? Did you study philosophy? Are you into...theory? Well, these memes are for you. They're heady. They're philosophical. And they love to name-check Foucault. While we're not expecting everyone to *get* each image macro, we love that they exist at the bizarre intersection of academia and easily digestible humor. And if you crave more? Check out Welcome to the Desert of the Meme. The page is in the process of pivoting to Instagram, but you can soak up their classics on the ol' FB. 

Tumblr did a good thing with this fun and wild little story about a Professor who dodged ultimate danger, with some skimpy clothing and kindness. Seriously, whether this story is real or not, it is amazing. Just picturing a bunch of laughing, smiling dudes out on an adventure, dancing and entertaining for their kicks at night, taking none of it seriously, is enough to warm the heart. Glad to hear that they managed to avoid a perilous predicament. 

Take in some more fun from Tumblr with this post about how dwarves have intelligent super beards.

This tweet might just be the most ignorant statement in history, and we don't say that lightly. If you aren't familiar with Prager University (or, PragerU for short), it's a non-profit organization that puts out videos on various topics from a conservative perspective.

Yesterday, PragerU tweeted out a quote by co-founder Dennis Prager stating, "The lockdown is the greatest mistake in human history." That's right, apparently PragerU thinks that the lockdown is a bigger mistake than any war or atrocity ever committed by humans. 

In response, Twitter has been rightfully meme-ing and trolling the quote, and we're really liking the results.

As the world struggles to cope with the Covid-19 outbreak, many people are finding themselves without work. But most schools are still in session. This does not mean that things are even remotely close to normal. Dr. Jennifer Carroll, a university professor, shared some sobering stories about what her students are currently struggling with while also trying to excel at their studies. From the deaths of loved ones to constant sixteen hour EMT shifts, these students have the weight of the world on their shoulders. And Carroll wants the world to know - and to cut students a bit of slack at this time. We need more professors like her.

As millennials on the older side of the generation, we were actually lucky to have experienced life before the internet was used for everything. It's definitely built character and probably lent us a little extra resourcefulness. Sometimes we feel like our grandparents talking about walking a mile in the snow to school when we talk about the days before smartphones, and this little text exchange between a post-millennial and an older, wiser person will show you exactly why. 

Grad school is no joke; you're stressed out all the damn time and you can't catch any sort of break ever. But if you do in fact find yourself with a fleeting moment to take a break, we think you'll like scrolling through these relatable memes for anyone in the thick of finishing up their PhD.

Frat boys and sorority girls are kind of just asking to be meme'd with the stereotypes they exude. If you're a college student yourself then these College Memes will definitely resonate with you.

Of course, these memes are all in good fun - all of these kids will probably end up being CEOs or lawyers. 

If you're currently in college then you probably often hear your parents say that college is easy compared to the "real world." While we'd have to agree that that is true, we do also understand how horrible it is to study for exams and do homework every day. 

In summary, the grass is always greener on the other side.

Chances are, if you're reading this then you should be studying instead of looking at memes. But let's be real, you're tired and bored and you need a break. Sometimes taking a break can give you a new rush of inspiration after all, so browse through these memes and then get back to work, dammit!
