If you logged onto Tumblr for the first time as a tween without knowing what depression was, you certainly weren't going to log off without learning. If you weren't a teenager on Tumblr in the early 2010s, it's difficult even to describe how insane the content was regarding depression and mental health issues. It was a nearly constant conversation, with Tumblr users sharing graphic details of their experiences with self-harm and suicide. Sure, these posts built a community in some aspects, but…

There are many memes that leave a person with zero questions. Those relatable work memes , anything hyper-topical, parenting memes. They're all pretty self-explanatory. Work sucks, bosses are terrible, parenting leads to lack of sleep, we all know the drill. We'd be remiss to not include that dogs and cats are cute. When the basicness of these memes gets to be dull, or we actually want to use our brains, we turn to history memes. While we're not history dunces, we can hardly pretend to be histo…

Imagine if, in the middle of a job interview, your potential future employer demanded that you open up your bag and reveal its contents? That would feel like a bizarre invasion of privacy, wouldn't it? Well that's basically what a recruiter did to redditor u/nuestl during a virtual job interview—the recruiter asked OP to give her a look around the room so that she could determine whether OP was organized enough for the gig.

Did you see that Henry Cavill posted about his gaming PC hardware problems on Instagram? He had to buy new fans and install them himself! That basically means Superman is just like the rest of us internet-poisoned, basement-dwelling gamers. Although, I don't know about you, but I'm a long way away from getting my hands on a Geforce RTX 3090. Ah, well. Anyway, if you're looking for those sweet, sweet gaming memes, you've come to the right place. As always, we've rounded up some of our favorite g…

The city I used to live in had a local cult. They preyed on international college students, those searching for a religious community, and straight-up loners to build an army of members. With promises of friendship and community, they'd isolate people from their families and other friends to the point where they'd spend 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with the cult. They'd provide housing for members and “strongly encourage” them to get in relationships and marry. As bemusing it is to have a…

Is he OK?

Who says that your favorite memes need to be current? Memes come and go so quickly these days. New memes are loved one minute and despised the next. Keeping up with the latest online trends can be exhausting and unsustainable. I have a lot of nostalgia for the 2014-2016 era of Twitter memes. Back then, there was about one huge viral meme per month that we could all really sit with. We would spend weeks developing different variations of Arthur Fist, Left Shark, and Kermit Sipping Tea memes to o…

"Don't talk to me until I've had my coffee! LOL" Me after coffee: *Sees into billions of new galaxies while brain rapidly pulsates with jet fuel.*

You could sleep... Or you could just keep looking at memes.

It's a whole lot better than watching pimple popping videos at 2am, but here are some of this week's cringiest, most uncomfortable memes that are surprisingly hilarious. If awkward silence, chaos, or discomfort makes you laugh nervously, these memes are for you.

We all love puns , right? No, No, we don't. Puns can often be the fodder of dull people who desperately want others to think they're clever. I don't want to sit around all day and listen to half-jokes from someone who would rather be witty than be funny. My perfect pun does not make any sense on the most fundamental level. I want a pun that makes people question the art and science of wordplay . Luckily, the latest Twitter meme fits perfectly into my philosophy of pun-making. The viral “Shocked…
