It should be known by now that we enjoy mocking other people's misfortune - and as schadenfreude goes, these amusing tales are pretty lighthearted. When Twitter user @lillyannatrnr shared a facepalm-worthy serving anecdote from her boyfriend's past, we're willing to bet she didn't think she was starting a thread of epic proportions. But his ignorance regarding creme fraiche and the laughs that followed inspired other users to share their own food-service and grocery work blunders. The result? A massive thread of funny fails and punny verbal comedy. We've picked out some of the better gems for you, but you can see more hilarity at the thread itself.
r/masterhacker is a treasure trove of cringey and hilarious examples of wannabe hackers trying their best to intimidate people online with empty threats, seeking advice that betrays their naivety, and straight up asking people for their IP addresses so they can hack them. We've got a bunch of amusing screenshots and memes about the sort of person who whispers 'I'm in' to themselves after using a Windows command prompt to identify an IP address. Be sure to check out r/masterhacker for more of this content.
Job interviews can feel pretty absurd, especially after you've answered the same questions for every position you've ever applied for. What are your biggest strengths and weaknesses? Where do you see yourself in five years? Describe yourself in three words. Don't you ever wish that you could say something totally insane just to spice things up a bit? It would even be interesting to see someone be brutally honest. Why do you want to work here? Well, there's this thing called rent, you see, and I need to pay it.
We've got some ridiculous memes depicting far-fetched job interview scenarios that poke fun at a grueling process we've all had to endure. Perhaps these memes will give you some ideas for your next Zoom interview.
Do you ever feel so crappy that the misery seems to transcend into a sort of dark humor? Sometimes when life becomes so cosmically sh*tty, it feels as if the universe is just trolling you. In those moments, we can't help but laugh back at the universe. Yeah, everything is terrible, but guess what? We can still meme our way through this hellscape called 'life', and no one can take that away from us.
Browsing through memes is a perfectly delightful pastime. But after a while, the memes start to blur together. It's very similar to the way time has begun to feel since early 2020. To break free from the monotony of cat memes or lowest common denominator relatable memes, we've put together this collection of decidedly cringey and uncomfortable memes, tweets, and posts. They might not be pleasant, but they're definitely entertaining. And sometimes that's all we need.
Greetings, internet traveler. Welcome to the meme zone. You're now entering a space where a good sense of humor is required. Haters of jokes and funny content beware: these memes are only for people who enjoy laughing and having fun. You have been warned. Enter the meme zone at your own risk.
It's no secret that Pugs are one of the most coveted dog breeds around. But is the Pug-breeding business more sinister than you think? According to this Tumblr thread, absolutely. Purebred pugs, which can cost anywhere from $1,900 to $6,000 have a host of health issues that can be attributed to their breeding. This thread, while hard to read, is a huge eye-opener for anyone with a soul, dog-lovers or otherwise. We hate to say it to the Pug-lovers, but this is more evidence that we should adopt and not shop!
As we approach the final day of the weekend, it's important to remember that this is the only time we never have to feel bad about screwing around. Whether you're eating a whole pizza and vegging to some crappy tv, or scrolling through memes, you are allowed to tell responsibilities to eff off. And if you're in the latter of the two camps, this gallery might help you in your quest for low-effort entertainment.
We all know that one person on Instagram who incessantly posts motivational platitudes about the importance of self-care on a pastel background, or clickbait articles that offer half-assed life hacks to everyday obstacles. We've got a bunch of chaotic and tongue-in-cheek memes and tweets that make fun of these clichés by offering terrible advice. No one should actually take these sarcastic pro tips seriously, but they sure are useful if you need a good laugh!
During more "normal times" we relish seeing restaurant owners call out unreasonable customers for bullshit reviews. Now, while restaurant workers and bartenders are risking their lives to cater to entitled people, we find that we relish the takedowns even more. Today we come to you with a classic Karen tale from Hucknall in the UK. This Karen, whose real name is Jo, took to Facebook to express her dismay at being kicked out of a restaurant after spending £700 on a birthday celebration at the venue.
The restaurant quickly responds - correcting her lies (the party spent about a quarter of that) and calling her group out for their drunken and entitled behavior. It's an expert takedown that requires only facts to make the Karen (and her entire family) seem out of line. And we think you'll find it pretty entertaining.
