British

We've never seen petty like this before and honestly, this story has so many levels of petty that we're gonna have to just let it do all the talking. All we can really say is that it involves world-renowned a-hole Anish Kapoor, his "bean" (aka Cloud Gate), and the world's blackest black shade of paint.

We're not sure if people are just extra bored these days, or if everyone on Twitter has always loved dumb jokes, but we seem to be reaching some seriously high levels of dumbassery on the website. Remember all those 'White People Be Like' tweets of yesteryear? The latest Twitter victim seems to be the British accent. For days now the site has been overflowing with tweets playfully mocking the accent's lilt, and while some people are bent out of shape, we've got to admit we are enjoying the lighthearted fun. As for all the Brits trying to get back at us, we know. There's no roast of Americans that we're not painfully aware of yet. Try harder.

We hope these memes won't trigger any of our buds in the United Kingdom, but these jab-heavy memes were too good not to share. From riffing on their habitual colonizing (love a good history meme) to mocking British cuisine, these memes are filled with slightly savage but mostly-harmless fun. 

This trending meme features British TV show Top Gear's host Jeremy Clarkson acting fake-surprised, and honestly we can all relate to the sentiment. Check out some more Top Gear memes for geniuses here!

The following pics of British town road signs won't make it very far past people who have the sense of humor of a 12-year-old. So, anyone reading this, basically. And after you're done scrolling through these, click here for some roasty British memes!

The generation gap is nothing to scoff at: it's freakin' hilarious. These parental tidbits and tweets are entertaining even if you have a crappy relationship with your parents.

We all know people who love to play the victim card constantly, whether it's justified or not. These memes make fun of that sentiment with a cult classic favorite - Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Click here for more Monty Python memes!

Queen Elizabeth has been on the public's radar quite a bit lately. First, her son Prince Charles contracted coronavirus and speculations began that he would never live to see the throne. Then, the Queen made a rare appearance on live television to address the nation about the virus, prompting some excellent photoshop work. 

We saw it particularly fitting to create a whole gallery of memes in honor of Her Majesty!

The internet is never shy about showing its love for the likes of Keanu, Danny DeVito, or Tom Hanks - but why are we not showing more appreciation for Rowan Atkinson, AKA Mr. Bean? We were perplexed by this, so we decided to throw together a few memes in honor of one of our all-time favorites!

These tweets will only fully make sense to our British audience, but we're willing to bet non-Brits will get a confused kick out of them too. If you're not sure what "limeys" means, it's a slang term for the British that originated in the 1850s in reference to the British sailors who would consume citrus fruits to prevent scurvy. The more you know!
