If you're a lean, mean, meme-eating machine, then you've come to the right place because all we've got are memes. If you're looking for intellectual discourse about the current state of the world, then show yourself out—this is the meme zone and the content you're about to consume is dumb as hell. You might even lose a few braincells by the end of this collection of buffoonery.
As we go through the week, our standards for entertainment tend to plummet. Instead of seeking out smart, compelling films and books, by the time Wednesday hits we're just looking for a distraction. Subtitles? No thanks. Wordy creative fiction or a fascinating trip through history? Can't do it. Instead, we're left to pretend to watch television as we wearily scroll through our phones, waiting for slumber to take over and take us into another day. Rather than scroll through some of the day's inevitably bleak news, why not indulge in some stupid fun? We've put a bunch of that together in one convenient gallery.

Not everyone can be an expert on the Star Wars prequels, and that's okay. Just leave that to us (or the memes, anyway). This frustrated boyfriend was just trying to figure out exactly which prequel his girlfriend was talking about, to hilarious results. But hey, at least she tried?
Candy is meant to be the opposite of evil, but sometimes that's not always the case. Anyone who's watched an ad for M&Ms (or seen some of the memes) can see there's something fishy going on with their mascots. Primarily the fact that their favorite food appears to be other M&Ms. Cannibalism is hardly a light topic, even when it's being done by chocolate-based goods. However, that hasn't stopped The Food Theorists from tackling it. Tracing the history of the candy's fondness for the flesh of its own kind, they come to some interesting conclusions in the video below.
Ever see a meme or tweet that manages to spit truth in the most roundabout way possible? Well, r/technicallythetruth is filled with funny tidbits that do just that. From punny yet accurate memes, to humorously observant tweets, this gallery gives you ample and amusing opportunities to say "Well, they've got a point."

The past 24 hours have been rife with mention of another heinous "food hack." We revealed our contempt for the engagement-baiting, and Eater even published their own expose. But Twitter's still talking about the Prego bullshit, and frankly we are a bit sick of it. There's a whole world of horrible food pics and videos to be enjoyed. Why don't they get the same amount of love? Is it because they're cursed? Is it because there's a chance that the cringe might actually be real instead of fabricated? Maybe it's both. Either way, these food crimes are certainly more worthy of shock and horror than the gleefully dumb foodhacks that we're seeing on TikTok.
The plot has thickened with the escaped tiger in Houston. Not only was its owner identified as a murder suspect, but it has also been revealed that it is on the loose again.
The viral Twitter video has made it onto national news for these worrying developments, and in its coverage on CNN the producers made a controversial choice of expert. To the bafflement of Twitter users everywhere, Carole Baskin was invited onto the show to discuss the issue.
Longstanding rivalry with Joe Exotic aside, many were quick to point out that she herself did not exactly have a clean conscience when it came to the topic of murder. While she might have a good handle on wild animal laws, that isn't what social media has been focusing on.
We do a lot of Twitter roundups here at Memebase. The site is absolutely brimming with clever witticisms from extremely funny writers and comedians. Though it is satisfying to parse through consistent collections of fresh tweets, sometimes we wish there was a Twitter time capsule that allowed us to revisit some of the best the site's ever had to offer. Fortunately for us, Twitter user @awkwardduck pretty much created such a time capsule when she asked her followers to share the best tweets they'd ever seen on the bird app. The results? Absolutely amazing. The thread is basically an unending walk down hilarious tweet memory lane. We've put together some of our favorites below, but if you want more (and naughtier) tweets, take a look at the thread yourself. You wont regret it.

There's no doubt about it, bodies are extremely weird. Just when you thought you had the whole being alive thing down, they throw you a curveball in the shape of a mysterious ailment.
Perhaps one of the biggest offenders when it comes to body WTFery is the reproductive system. If Yahoo Answers (RIP) was anything to go by, sex ed is not a strong point of the school curriculum in most places.
This is something that can be easy to take advantage of, as Tiktoker @dfinkk discovered recently. Many people didn't know how to react after she made a video stripping her face of what looked suspiciously like a peelable facemask. "Throwback to when men didn't know we had to peel off layers of our skin after our period", explains the voiceover.
Despite the claim being completely outlandish, the comment section was filled with people praising her for speaking up, comparing skincare products to help and even discussing what they did with the skin afterwards. Predictably enough, this led to many also questioning why it had never happened to them or apologetically admitting they had never known about it.
When the clip made it onto Twitter, you might have thought the ruse was up — but nope, there were just as many people adamant that this was a monthly struggle, or responding with shock and sympathy.
While it might now be hard to believe, having a working uterus doesn't usually turn someone into a lizard. However, as this video has proved, it gives a great excuse for trolling.
Mysterious Twitter user @elpablogrande tweeted 'Enjoying the chungus among us' a decade ago and Twitter is freaking out over the supposed internet time traveler. According to @elpablogrande's profile, they joined Twitter in 2009 and have been 'Riding the Wave of Awesome since 1982!' Okay, very sus indeed! Who is this time-traversing imposter? What do they want? Who do they serve?
Since the tweet resurfaced, many have been expressing their dismay through memes and jokes. Others have their own theories that explain away the 'chungus among us' phenomenon. We've collected some of the best replies, takes and Twitter memes about the puzzling tweet from a decade ago.
We're back with another collection of the dankest and dumbest memesaround. No theme, thesis, rhyme or reason here—if you're looking for a dissertation on post-internet aesthetics, you're in the wrong place buddy. We're all about straight up memes around these parts. Scroll along if you're craving some mindlessly random content.

It's always nice to come across a meme that makes you laugh but also really gets you. We're all different, there's no doubt about that. We've all got our own problems and crap to deal with. But this is precisely why a good relatable meme hits like other memes don't—even though our struggles are specific to us, the struggle itself is universal. Keep scrolling for a big dose of funny memes that range from dank to comically relatable.
The world, especially this year, is an absolute garbage fire of failure and pain. Between the election and the pandemic, we're barely surviving this hell. To make it all a bit more palatable, or at least to distract you, we've put together this healthy gallery of pleasant memes and tweets. We may not be able to pull a coronavirus vaccine out of our sleeves, but at least we can smile a bit while we wait.
Have you ever thought about Resident Evil Village and wished it were a puppet show? Neither have we. But Capcom is making that very specific desire a reality with their musical puppet show version of the very scary game. The weirdly adorable series, which was originally dubbed in Japanese, is a very creative and very entertaining response to consumers saying the game was too scary. While we don't think the series really does anything to soothe our heart palpitations and nightmares, it's a great palate cleanser and a highly amusing treat for anyone who has been enjoy the eight installment in the Resident Evil series. You can check out all four videos (and some very favorable reactions) below.
According to our timelines, pretty much everyone is a medical expert or scientist these days. These "experts" throw around knowledge that is factually untrue and sometimes even downright dangerous. And it's extremely satisfying when these wannabe Einsteins get schooled by actual professionals on social media. This gallery is full of that delicious dunking. We hope these numbskulls learned their lessons and maybe even starting cracking some actual books.
Happy Tuesday, LOTR heads. We can't believe that we've already composed our 40th official installment of Tolkien Tuesday. The memes are some of the most consistent on the internet, and the list itself is such a joy to create. While sometimes we wish the whole site was filled with Lord of the Rings memes, we all know that they'd feel a bit less special. So in the spirit of novelty and special occasions, we present you with another hefty assortment of memes that might make JRR Tolkien puzzled, offended, and maybe even grossed out. We'll never really know how he'd feel, so let's just get on with the scrolling. Thanks for the support!
