It's a full-time job

Dead inside

Bits and pieces

Some people wake up on Mondays and just get out of bed instead of snoozing for 40 minutes. Some people mosey over to their coffee maker or tea kettle, look at the window, and smile, thinking “How wonderful. It's another day on Earth, and I'm lucky to be alive.” They take a shower, get dressed, and high-tail it out of the house with a pep in their step and a grin on their faces, excited to be productive and see their coworkers. Then there's the rest of us. Dragging ass, disgruntled, taking some…

Real rib ticklers

As humans we are constantly being told what is bad for us. Don't drink this. Don't eat that. We all know that smoking causes lung cancer, and that fatty and processed foods are nearly poisonous to your body. Drugs? Fuhgeddabout it. We talk a lot less about the stuff that seems completely harmless but could actually really mess us up. Redditor u/Sealedbox recently asked the r/AskReddit community to share situations, objects - and even animals - that fall into this category. They came through wit…

It's rumbling

Trippy

I don't know if this is said enough, so I'm just going to flat out say it; Being a programmer is a huge accomplishment. Sure, the general population praises those pursuing STEM fields during their high school and college years, but what about after they manifest their dreams of becoming programmers? Programmers and IT specialists work long, hard hours that it's difficult for the normies of the world to understand. You have to learn complex coding languages, stop and start over, all while never…

I don't know about you, but I'm old enough to remember a place and time before the world wide web. A time when you had to find humor in joke books, terrible TV sitcoms, inside jokes with old pals, and good old fashioned farts . When I was a child, my friends and I would invent strange and completely nonsensical words and repeat them over and over again until they became hilarious. There's no denying it: we've come a long way since then. Thanks to memes , millions of strangers can be in on the s…

We are officially in the thick of Leo season, and it feels so good. This time of year is accompanied by many things: record high temperatures, corny back-to-school advertisements, and of course, the celebrated births of those who emerged from their mother's womb between July 22nd to August 23rd. In celebration of this exciting month, here are some Leo Season Horoscopes for your pleasure. Aries: Pay attention during Leo season. A lot of little bugs will come out of the woodworks, and you should…

Going off

If one thing is true about the folks here at Memebase, it's that we are firm believers in the fact that people shouldn't need to feel guilty when you want to look at memes or mess around on their phones. Life is short and often thankless experience. We are worked to the bone and then granted tiny scraps of time to “enjoy” while we can. Scraps of time that end up being devoted to exhausted binge-watching or, even worse, our endless lists of chores. If you want to spend your lunch break scrolling…

Let's be honest…the landscape of memes right now can be kind of depressing . There are so many memes about catastrophic global events that they can be hard to avoid. What happened to the good old days, when wholesome and fun memes ran this town? I don't want to see vaguely humorous pictures bemoaning the backbreaking reality of American hegemony. I want to see pictures of funny birds. I don't want to see a TikTok breaking down every single solitary unethical thing that some random micro-influen…

Your knees make a snap, crackle, pop sound more than Rice Krispies.

British people get a lot of slack from Americans online. They get roasted for their teeth, food , and accents in ways that nearly always come off as hacky. Like we get it, Brits put peas and beans on foods that are largely incomprehensible to the Yankee mind and stomach, but can we let it rest? British culture through the American lens can lean somewhat limited. Personally, my primary outlets for learning about British culture have been heavily influenced by memes and internet pop culture: Harr…
