Revving up

It's easy to become immersed in video games - look at the success of Elden Ring and the time its devoted enthusiasts spend trying to beat the damn thing. Despite all the hours poured into them, video games are obviously not real life. And that's a good thing, too – if they were, I suspect a fair few of us would be guilty of crimes against humanity and tried in the Hague. Think of how full the prisons would be, and how stupid everyone on the street would look. Bad hair. Weirdly boob-enhancing ar…

We often highlight some of the funniest jokes that Twitter has to offer for those who normally wouldn't go near the bird website with a ten-foot pole. But it would be a lie to portray Twitter as anything other than a cesspool of horrific takes and the sort of cringe that can only come from brains rotted by the internet. For those of us sickos who can't get enough of social media's cringiest moments, @benner's recent thread is a goldmine of the worst tweets ever twote. What's the worst tweet you…

It's only been a month since Disney+ debuted its latest limited series, Obi-Wan Kenobi, but the internet had been talking about it long before its May 22nd premiere. Much of the hype and hubbub existed on Reddit's r/PrequelMemes subreddit, where users make and exchange memes related to everything but Star Wars' first three releases. While the subreddit is known for its devotion to the critically panned prequels, it's also a place where people get excited about the latest shows and movies. As on…

Feast your eyes

Over the past few days, Twitter has been inundated with a new joke format that you cannot escape, even if you tried! It goes like this: She/He's a 10, But [Insert Quirky Quality Here]. This meme is similar to a game I played with my friends in college called 10/10, where you would picture your 10/10 partner, but they had one wacky quality that someone in the group pitched. For instance, 10/10, but they shed their skin like a reptile every 12 hours. Once the group decided on a uniform abnormal t…

I'm going to let you guys in on a little secret; I am not a parent. Despite this, my friends always tell me that they think I'd be a good mom. What does that say about me? I have no idea. My first theory is that I would be a good mom because I have incredible vibes, and I will pass those good vibes down through my bloodline without skipping a generation. Or possibly, I would be one of those strict, no-nonsense parents that can't stop bragging about how their 3-year-old has never seen a screen.…

It's not much, but it's what we have.

Raccoons have gotten a bad reputation over the years. Their diet of trash and resistance toward domestication makes them hard to love for many people. However, not everyone is a hater. Some of us developed our love for raccoons through their brief yet impactful appearances in the movies. Pocahontas's bestie Meeko was stellar representation of a sweet and loyal raccoon. In the cult-classic documentary Grey Gardens, Little Edie feeds the raccoon living in her attic two bags of Wonder Bread, refus…

One of the best things about memes is they aren't going anywhere anytime soon. It doesn't seem like memes are in danger of extinction, but you never know. As a kid, I was anxious about the entire internet deleting itself in a burning of the Library of Alexandria-esque crisis. This dilemma kept me up at night; If the internet got deleted, how would I watch the newest episode of Annoying Orange and Charlie the Unicorn? As I've grown older, I've found much more reasonable end-of-the-world scenario…

Who says math and science can't be hilarious?

What would the internet be without memes ? Just a bunch of advertisements and obnoxious complaining. I don't even want to imagine an internet without memes. Instead of dwelling on nightmarish alternate realities, how about we all enjoy some nice and dumb memes together. We've got just the collection of funny randoms that'll make the day feel a little lighter.

Good evening, or morning, internet users, abusers and even lamenters. It is not a big secret that life is a largely torturous experience, and that our blip of an existence is completely futile. That said, most of us can't help but crave the chance to do what we want with that fleeting amount of time. If we are being totally honest, the whole hustling and grinding things isn't particularly high on that list of chosen activities. So when the workweek is at our backs, or just starting (we hate you…

As a thirty-something with no kids but a wealth of cats, I might complain, but I have it pretty easy. Despite the incessant vet bills, taking care of a cat is a lot easier and somehow a lot cheaper than raising a human child. A friend of mine shared an alarming statistic with her Instagram friends recently - the lifetime cost of raising a child here in the United States, as of 2022, is estimated at a whopping $272,049. That's a staggering number, one that makes me feel like I'm definitely never…
