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!

It's pretty much a proven fact that everyone in the world likes Monty Python and the Holy Grail, so it makes sense that a dank meme inspired by it would be excellent. So without further ado, please enjoy these memes, entitled, "Who Are You, Who Are So Wise In The Ways Of Science?"
All you Top Gear fans will appreciate this meme that features TV show host Jeremy Clarkson uttering the sentence, "Sometimes my genius... it's almost frightening." This meme stems from all the way back in a 2013 episode, and we think it's also great for the dummies who also think they're real clever.

People will go to great lengths to find love and this guy, whose name is Mark, has to be the most dedicated we've seen. Mark created a website asking for dating applicants, citing the difficulty of finding love at age 30. We feel that. He even went as far as to pay for a billboard to be put up in Manchester, UK.
Mark, if you're reading this, then we hope you find your special someone. You deserve it.
And ladies, if you're actually interested in going on a date with Mark (which honestly you should be), you can apply to be Mark's ladyfriend here. Good luck, because he's got a lot of applicants to sift through.
Here's a fun bit of incredibly random trivia for you: on January 14th, 1784, the United States Congress of the Confederation ratified the Treaty of Paris, which marked the end of the Revolutionary War. Seems like prime time to celebrate, doesn't it? And what better way to celebrate America's independence that with memes!
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.
We're not quite sure what it is, but British memes and tweets just hit differently. Maybe it's the novelty of the slang or "cheeky Nando's" but we find ourselves chuckling at these Twitter witticisms constantly, and we want you to start laughing too. So pull up a chair, pour yourself a cup of tea, and get to scrollin'.
The British government released its "Get Ready for Brexit" campaign on Sunday and let's just say, the rest of the UK is not impressed. The campaign comes in the form of billboards and social media advertisements in anticipation of Britain's October 31st exit from the EU.
One billboard in particular that reads, "Get Ready for Brexit," has recently become a meme on Twitter. Many Twitter users are mocking the ad for encouraging a "shared responsibility," and fears of what could happen to the average UK citizen - including losing access to medication.
You can read some of the snarky tweets and memes about it below!
This meme isn't new by any means, but can you believe it's from all the way back in 2004? Yeah, neither can we. It stems from a scene in British comedy series Peep Show where a character named Super Hans offers another character a chocolate bar he stole, which he claims tastes so good because its secret ingredient is "crime."
Is there a more quotable movie than Monty Python and the Holy Grail? Well aside from Airplane, we think not.
Movies often times become dated and irrelevant throughout the years, but Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one that will likely be hilarious for generations to come.
If this gallery inspires you to watch the movie again, then our work here is done.
When Twitter user Matthew Harris tweeted a sketchy photo of a woman sitting in a backless seat on an airplane, it sparked a barrage of parodies and roasts.
The airline, EasyJet, was quick to reply on Twitter, asking Harris to take down the photo so that they could "best assist" his complaints. People on Twitter, however, weren't falling for the budget British airline's BS, and began creating parodies of the tweet.
Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately, depending on your own personal opinion), it's been reported that these backless seats were actually inoperable on the flight and passengers were not permitted to use them.
However, we've gotta wonder why EasyJet was so quick to get defensive in the Twitter thread. Very suspicious indeed...
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.
