Some of us may not want to remember the dumb things we would do as children. Whether it was peeing into the vents of the family home (Sorry, mom) or harboring the thought that women don't poop, kids really are apt to doing (and thinking) the darndest things. The r/KidsAreFuckingStupid subreddit is full of these sorts of anecdotes, submitted by people who are marveling at their own childhood stupidity, frustrated and bemused parents, and people who may have seen a tweet they couldn't help but share. And we've got a bunch of the forum's best tidbits right here to share with you.

If you're in the mood for some warm and fuzzy vibes, keep scrolling.

Happy weekend! As the weather here gets warmer, a lot of people seem to be abandoning their couches for grassy, tree-filled parks or sunny beaches. The light of summer beckons the active, luring them into happy bike rides and Instagrammable picnics. After over a year of staying indoors, we definitely can't blame people for wanting to get out there. But there's another part of the population who needs the weekends to really recharge. This part of the population recognizes that being horizontal is a luxury that is hard to pass up when you're grinding the whole week long. This group of people needs easy entertainment that doesn't require standing up or lacing up some sneakers. And we're here to provide that in the form of memes, tweets, and weirdo posts that will soothe souls without making you break a sweat.

If you're one of those armchair historians who gets most of their information from dubious YouTube videos that pack 200 years of history into ten-minute summaries, chances are you're all about the history memes. What's not to love? You get to have a laugh while pretending to be smart every time you recognize a vague (and possibly historically inaccurate) reference. We've got another round of dank history memes for all the aspiring scholars out there who also have a sense of humor.
In these days of social media managers and mysteriously trained algorithms, it's becoming vanishingly rare to see an internet star who doesn't conform to the generic influencer mold. When someone does break through these expectations, though, it means they make an even bigger impact.
Hasbulla Magomedov, aka Mini Khabi, has shaped up to be one of the most compelling candidates for breaking these boundaries recently. At 18 years old and just over 3'3, he first rose to prominence through sharing humorous videos on his Instagram account. After a year of its existence, it has gained more than 300,000 followers and started his fledgling MMA career. His widely publicized fight with singer Abdu Rozik last month shot him even further to stardom.
After this, he has continued to maintain the kind of profile most aspiring influencers can only dream of with fan accounts on multiple platforms propagating viral videos and memes every other week. His infectious attitude has propelled his sustained popularity, and it probably also helps that he's Russian, feeding into meme culture's longstanding admiration of all things Slavic.
Whether demonstrating his fighting prowess, making fun of cringeworthy TikTokers or standing on/in front of a series of impressive looking cars, his presence alone brings the vibe that online legend is made of. His fame doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon, so it's only right to celebrate it with some of the best content he has made and inspired.
No one is impervious to the nuances of subtle sarcasm and wit. We've all had our woosh moments where we take something too literally and totally miss the joke. But some people really need to brush up on their meme humor, because there's no reason why anyone should ever take a stupid meme seriously. Thanks to r/woooosh, we've got a great selection of hilarious instances where someone tried to correct obvious satire in the comments, or missed a punchline entirely. Screenshots like these make us think twice about smashing that reply button.

Paging all fathers, grandfathers, surrogate fathers, and maybe even some George Michael-style father figures and zaddies. This collection of memes has been carefully curated with your brand in mind. It's full ofdad jokes, bad jokes, puns, and some memes about fatherly duties for good measure. It hasn't been an easy time to raise and mess with ones kids (hello, perpetual home-schooling) but here's hoping the gratification of molding a human's future (and pestering them with corny jokes) hasn't gone anywhere. Here's to you.
They're everywhere, all around us. They are omniscient. They're a powerful, unstoppable force. They influence the way we think and feel about the world. The mere sight of them is enough to emotionally manipulate us. They demand our attention at all hours of the day and distract us from urgent matters. They once imitated life but now life imitates them. They've infiltrated our communication channels and they flood our devices. We speak through them and they speak through us. They are…memes.
Memes don't always have to be straightforward and relatable to everyone. Sometimes a meme that feels slightly off can make your brain do a double take. They're not for everyone, but weird memes have their own special charm that deserve appreciation. If you were always the odd one in school or feel like an outsider in most social situations, these are probably the memes for you. Embrace your inner weirdness.
We all have that one friend (or several even) who keeps trying to push their pyramid scheme on you. And the worst part is, it doesn't seem to matter how many times you try to tell them that they're a part of a total scam, they'll just continue to believe that they're an "entrepreneur" or a "boss babe." Accordingly, we've put together a collection of memes and posts to get the cringe flowing through your veins!
Twitter is an absolute minefield of horrible discourse. It's kind of like Rule 34. If it exists, Twitter will find a way to debate and troll it to oblivion. As summer is swiftly approaching (our chub-rub chafed thighs believe it's already here) the discourse has taken a turn to summer fashion. Specifically, men's shorts.

Twitter user @cheracuse seems to have inspired the controversy with a matter-of-fact tweet that argues 5" inseams are the only correct path for men who want to wear shorts. A statement like that is bound to garner reactions, and these Twitter users were happy to oblige with their two cents. While some men were concerned that their thunder thighs or extra meat wouldn't work with this specific trend, most people (especially women) seem to be on board with the PSA. We're inclined to agree with the thirsty people of the internet: 5 inches or higher is the way to go. But we're here for the debate because, well, it's nice to see the internet fighting over something like shorts for a change.
