Who wouldn't?

Is there a divine reason for certain memes to be grouped together? As you're scrolling through this list, I'm sure you've seen at least one of these memes in a different context. It might have been on Tumblr a couple of years ago, on Twitter last week, or this very website. Memes are inherently communal things that are shared repeatedly to secure their legacy. You don't think we're just pumping these things out on an assembly line, do you? The question remains, though, why these memes? Why here…

So freaky

I feel like there's a lot of stigma associated with being average. Not to have a boomer take, but I do think that telling kids they were gifted in the early 2000s because they read more chapter books than their peers was a mistake. Whenever the topic of “gifted kids” comes up,

What an iconic rodent!

Don't burn yourself

I'm not an NPC. At least I don't think I am. NPC, or “Non Player Character” has been in the vernacular for some time now, but recently it's become used to label people they see as “mindless” or “controlled by something.” One of my least favorite examples of this is when people post videos of themselves at the airport and ask the question “How is it possible that 100 people are flying from Tampa Florida to Salt Lake City Utah on a Tuesday morning? At least 80% of these people must be NPCs." I ha…

I don't know if any social media will ever die yet live on so positively in people's memories as Vine has. The iconic quotes from Vine (I don't even have to list them for you to know them) have stayed within the internet cultural consciousness for years since the social media platform's untimely death seems to be emblematic of an internet culture lost to time. As much as I tolerate TikTok , I don't know if that app's trends will age as well as the late Vines. I'm nostalgic for the 2019 TikTok t…

'Happy New Years' is just on the tip of our tongue at this point.

Some ridiculous diagnoses

It keeps getting worse

One of the greatest movies of the 20th century is about a man who magically turns into a dog. I'm not talking about The Shaggy Dog or its remake starring Tim Allen. No, I'm referring to the greatest hidden gem Disney+ has to offer, The Shaggy D.A. As the title so cleverly suggests, it is a movie about a man who is running for District Attorney and can't stop turning into a big white fluffy dog . The best part of this movie is its action sequences. If you haven't seen the viral clip where a man…

What are they like?

'I'll let you know' means I'm not coming

A tweet from @NYCParks went viral last week after the account reassured concerned citizens that the sight of squirrels “splooting” around public parks shouldn't be cause for alarm. @NYCParks explained, “On hot days, squirrels keep cool by splooting (stretching out) on cool surfaces to reduce body heat.” Included with the important public service announcement was a picture of a little squirrel sprawled out under the shade of a tree. It turns out squirrels aren't the only splooters in the animal…

Oh they work hard for their bacon
