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…

If anyone deserves a break right now, it's you.

*increases phone volume on the birth control reminder* Whether you have kids, know someone with kids, or have been a kid yourself, it's easy to see where there are hesitations for some people to have children these days. Maybe 30 years ago it seemed like an awesome idea to quadruple the population with self loathing youngsters, but nowadays, more and more people are deciding not to populate the Earth. Here are some relatable, nightmarish children to really make you rethink the beauty and wonder…

Welcome back to another exciting edition of Tolkien Tuesday . For those of you who are new, Tuesdays are when we (Memebase) provide you (whoever you are) with a selection of the best Lord of the Rings memes to have graced our feeds in the last week. The internet has been abuzz with LOTR news, and while there's plenty to be seen (and memed about), it's recently come to our attention that Peter Jackson almost got hypnosis to forget making our most beloved movies. Why? Because he wishes he could w…

Trainwiz is at it again with the modding antics, and this time he's replaced all the dragons in Skyrim with the great state of Ohio. According to his Nexus Mods profile, Kevin Brock, a.k.a. Trainwiz, has been modding Elder Scrolls games since 2016. Plenty of gamers in the modding community have been well aware of Trainwiz's work for years, but nothing enhances a mod's virality like a good meme reference , and turning Alduin into a giant, fire-breathing Ohio got everyone's attention—even the Twi…

Being sorted into your Harry Potter house is one of the most important moments of a young Potterhead's life. There are so many ways to do it. If you're one of the lucky ones, you can do it in person, like my friend who was sorted into Hufflepuff at a bookstore the night of the Deathly Hallows book release. Imagine how much fun it is to have a real sorting hat plopped on your head as an eight-year-old? Lucky dog. If you were sorted in the pre-Pottermore era, you likely had to fill out a question…

“Aishuwayshe.” “Yep floor 3!”

It's dumb just come have fun. With a slogan like that, it's easy to imagine an event full of people who simply DGAF. Post-pandemic, young people have simply given up on trying or attempting to be cool in any way and are leaning into meme culture and just being as dumb as possible for fun. Honestly it's pretty liberating and I've already bought my ticket for when Shrek Rave comes to my hometown. Here's 10 reasons why you should consider letting your inhibitions go, buying some Shrek ears, and sh…
