Happy Sunday, friends, enemies, lovers, whatever! We would say that we hope your weekend was enjoyable, but time is a construct and right now, in the deep of winter , it feels like we're living a pretty freaking Sisyphean existence. One of our only forms of respite is to try to distract ourselves from that terrible, painful truth, and to inject some joy and maybe meaning into the monotony before we head back to the grind. This weekend, at least in the United States, some of us have a little mor…

Guys. We really need to know why it always seems to be 'where are the memes ? Give me the memes ! I need the god damn memes! ' but not ' how are the memes? It just seems kind of rude not to care about how they might feel about being swiped and redistributed as we see fit. They are flung into our group chats and casually uploaded to Instagram stories. Just think about it for a second. Nearly much every meme you have seen has probably been passed around without any regard for its psychological st…

Finally. Here in the Northeast the long and oppressive winter is beginning to loosen its grip on our poor, seasonal depression-addled sou ls. The sun is starting to pop out, the open-toe shoes are getting paraded around town, and teachers are starting to feel the restlessness that happens before school's out for summer. If kids think they have it hard, though, they need to get real and start thinking about their teachers. They deserve our pity. By mid-May, they're on the verge of insanity after…

We love anyone willing to troll , roast, or deceive people on the internet - as long as they steer clear of bullying. This kind of mischief is pretty much all we have in the prank zone now that so many people are cooped up inside. One of the best trolls of all time, that fake Customer Service account, was actually run by UK comedian The Amazing Troll-Man . He'd troll some pretty obnoxious people by changing their account's profile photo to whatever business the poor sucker was trying to tear ap…

“This kinda hurt my feelings, but A+ on satire."

Time flies when you're having “fun.” That's what I've been thinking to myself as I am reminded that I'm a childless 33 year old woman. Here in New York City, my friends have taken longer than most to go on the long and exhausting journey of procreation. My married and coupled friends, though, are starting to pop them out, slowly but surely, and I'm completely mystified. The woman who is making her kid's baby food from scratch every week is the same woman I used to run into at clubs three years…

The first time I ever played any sort of board game was when I was eight years old. The game was Monopoly and my Dad thought it would be a fun time for my sister and I. While I share his love of competition, he was sorely mistaken. I became mad with power as I destroyed my little sister's spirit, and pretend wallet. My Dad, in turn, relished messing with me. While I struggled to maintain some sort of savings, Monopoly quickly became my sister's least favorite activity. Eventually, she grew so f…

A few nibbles

Memes aren't purely for entertainment. Memes serve many purposes. They're like little friends in your phone that cheer you up when you're feeling lonely or sad. They bring people closer together and they're a good excuse to DM a crush in a chill and non-committal way. The perfect meme will brighten up any group chat after an awkward silence. They're excellent for occupying dull moments you can't get out of, like waiting in a long line at the grocery store. If you're trying not to make eye-conta…
