The return of the memes

Things have been relatively quiet for the Lord of the Rings fandom of late. After all the insane drama (and to be quite frank, blatant racism) surrounding The Rings of Power, e ven the most annoying and pedantic whining feels like a relief. We've been able to enjoy the funniness, and the rewatches, without interruption. This week, however, we've been hearing a lot of rumblings about the new The Lord of the Rings: Gollum game. And lemme tell ya, the rumbling ain't positive. While reviews are not…

Warm greetings to the Lord of the Rings enthusiasts of the world wide web! As it'sTuesday , the worst day of the week, we're officially three days away from the end of our weekly woes. As much as we loathe this day of the week, Tuesday also means that we're back to supply a double dose of Lord of the Rings memes - most of which are incredibly dumb, yet enjoyably silly. We've scoured the depths of Facebook, Reddit, and Instagram to bring you the newest and most amusing LOTR memes out there, whic…

As excited as I am for the warm weather to arrive, I always feel a bit of sadness as winter ends and hibernation ceases with it. Though I often decry the pains of seasonal affective disorder, the winter blues are great for enabling behaviors that may not necessarily be the most mentally healthy. This can mean gorging oneself on rich, wintery meals. It can also mean (if you're like me) binge-watching movies and television shows. While I like a current comedy or a cooking competition as much as t…

Welp, it happened. I watched The Lord of the Rings: The Ring of Power . And despite my low hopes (which have nothing to do with the cast) and disdain for Amazon, I really, really enjoyed the first two episodes. They were beautiful, compelling, and exciting - and Galadriel is nothing short of a badass. As a huge fan of the incredible trilogy from Peter Jackson (not The Hobbit, y'all), it's easy to be skeptical of new media that is based on Tolkien's work. And while we can't say it measures up co…

Well hello again, nerds. Welcome back to another edition of Tolkien Tuesday - a chance for Memebase, Captains of the Internet to show our quality. Or,, honestly, lack thereof. We're serving up yet another collection of amusing Lord of the Rings memes and Tolkien-related stupidity. These nerdy memes are some of the most consistently funny tidbits on the internet, and because we're die-hard fans, we know they're also extremely fun to make. It's true: getting paid to look at and make memes is pret…

Tuesday's greetings to the Fellowship of the Internet. It's that time again, and we're serving up another big-ass batch of Lord of the Rings memes. Not sure if it's just my usual existential dread talking, but there's something weird in the air. Oh wait, maybe it's news about The Rings of Power, the Lord of the Rings series that literally nobody (except for maybe Amazon) asked for.

Ah sh*t, here we go again. While Lord of the Rings is a wee bit different than GTA San Andreas, the sentiment stands, because we're back with another massive drop of dank and dumb Lord of the Rings memes . We regret to inform everyone that this week's batch does include some memes from the whole Will Smith slapping Chris Rock debacle, but fear not. Most of the memes fall into our usual category of referential humor and nonsensical shitposts. There are the usual relatable memes featuring scenes…

Well, well, well. We meet again. How are we all feeling after the intense explosion of those Will Smith slapping Chris Rock memes ? It seems every corner of the internet was afflicted by the controversial event - even the corners in which we normally find Lord of the Rings memes for Tolkien Tuesday. Even though we covered those yesterday, our LOTR-related Reddit and Facebook groups are still relying heavily on jokes about the interaction. But because we love you, we've left all mention of that…

"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,…

It's Tuesday again. We're halfway through March and that means a couple things: 1) Soup season is on it's way out, and 2) so is Lord of the Rings marathon season. For some people, it's hard to sit on a couch for twelve hours when the sun is blazing and you can hear the sounds of people enjoying the great outdoors. As much as we love being sedentary while consuming our favorite film trilogy, it just doesn't feel…right. So we start looking for other less guilt-ridden ways to enjoy LOTR. Simply sc…

It's another beautiful Tuesday on planet Earth. Sh*t feels extremely bad lately, and we're pretty sure everyone knows why. The brutal attacks on Ukraine by Russia has bled into every form of media - for good reason. It's a very scary and important time - and the world is watching. If you're asking how we feel about the situation, we're not into it. War shouldn't be caused by greed and power trips, senseless deaths shouldn't be occurring - war really shouldn't exist. There's a couple exceptions…

Happy Tuesday to those who celebrate. We do. It's true that Tuesdays can be hard. The end of the week feels very distant, almost as distant as Valinor. On this hallowed day of the week, as weary as we may be, we pause for something important. Humor. Very, very specific humor. Tuesdays are for Lord of the Rings memes, and we are pleased to bring you another batch of our favorite kind of content. This week's memes are rather diverse. Yes, there are a few that deal with Amazon's Rings of Power. Bu…

It is a bit cruel that the Tuesday after a three day weekend can feel so difficult. While we do believe in the idea of a four day workweek, sometimes the extra rest can make us extra tired when it comes time to return to our responsible realities. While the day is always tough, it just feels extra arduous - especially if your duties require you to cram five days of work into the shortened week. In times like these, we need memes more than ever. And lucky for all of you, Tuesday is when we suppl…

Greetings, nerds. It's Tuesday again. It would be easily be the worst day of the week were it not for the immense joy we derive from supplying you with that weekly serving of Lord of the Rings content. If you're hardcore fans - or even if you just happened to have been watching Super Bowl LVI - you have probably seen the teaser trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power . While it was a short glimpse at the long-awaited (and for some, long-dreaded) series, it was enough to ignite eve…

We don't know about you, but we're feeling some serious cravings. There's an itch we really gotta scratch. And it's Tuesday, so we're you know that we're fiending for Lord of the Rings memes . If anyone else is feeling the same way, we got you. We're serving up our weekly double dose of Tolkien-related humor that any type of fan can enjoy. Hell, you don't even need to have seen all the movies to appreciate them. These Lord of the Rings memes have something for everyone - and they're not afraid…
