Greetings, gamers . I don't know about you, but Elden Ring has me fighting for my damn life every night after I get off work, and I won't rest until I beat the game so that I can finally start playing the game. Elden Ring's concurrent players peak on Steam hit over 900k in its second week, so I think it's safe to say that FromSoftware's latest hit is the focus of the gaming community at the moment. That's why we've decided to make this week's roundup of the best gaming memes specifically dedica…

What was the original meme ? It's a highly debated topic, but many consider Baby Cha-Cha (also known as Dancing Baby and Oogachaca Baby) to be the very first internet meme in existence. The iconic and somewhat disturbing dancing CGI baby was created in 1996 by Kinetix Character Studio. Originally meant to showcase the company's CGI software 3D Studio Max, the dancing baby would frequently pop up on various TV newscasts, and perhaps most famously on Ally McBeal. The dancing baby was parodied and…

Have a break

It's Tuesday again. We're halfway through March and that means a couple things: 1) Soup season is on it's way out, and 2) so is Lord of the Rings marathon season. For some people, it's hard to sit on a couch for twelve hours when the sun is blazing and you can hear the sounds of people enjoying the great outdoors. As much as we love being sedentary while consuming our favorite film trilogy, it just doesn't feel…right. So we start looking for other less guilt-ridden ways to enjoy LOTR. Simply sc…

Remember when everyone was hoarding toilet paper and gasoline because they thought the world was ending? That was pretty crazy. Humans, though smarter than any animal on the planet, can be impressively dumb sometimes, especially in emergency situations. With oil soaring to unprecedented prices all over the world, it's safe to assume that people are going to start freaking out and filling plastic bags with petrol again before it gets even more expensive. But I've got a galaxy-brained plan: Inste…

Last Sunday I had my whole week planned out. I did all the laundry, stopped by the grocery store, and went home to food prep for the next several days. Kale salad for Monday. Spinach salad for Tuesday. Chicken salad sandwich for Wednesday. Pasta salad with a side of fruit salad for Thursday. Tuna salad on a Mediterranean salad for Friday. I know it sounds like a lot of salad, but I was determined to have a healthy week so that I could feel good about myself when that inevitable sloppy Saturday…

The saga continues.

Nice and easy

It is time to stop pretending. There's really no way around it - there's an unbelievable wealth of things in life that beat spending your time staring at your designated screen, tightly shackled to your work desk, toiling away for the man. The sad truth is that there aren't that many of us who have the freedom to do what they love and still make a halfway decent living. It seems like a pipe dream. The gigs we love don't pay the rent and the ones we don't make impossible to feel truly fulfilled…

At this point we've all heard many a joke about white people and their resistance to using seasoning. And while I object to the stereotype (y'all should see my well-stocked spice rack) spices and herbs are no joke. There's nothing worse than biting into a mouthful of bland, whether it's flavorless chicken breast that may as well have been boiled, or vegetables that are sorely in need of, at the very least, a handful of salt. As much as we love the myriad spices available to humans thanks to the…

The force is strong with this one

Greetings, internet traveler. You're…still here. In front of that screen. Weird. So am I. It's been a long day of staring at this light, typing away, trying to make this rickety brain do things that will make me a little bit of money. And yet, when the clock hits six pm, I can't help but remain in the hideous, depression-inspiring glow that makes time move more slowly and more quickly at the same exact time. Our relationship with our screens is almost like a toxic relationship - you keep gettin…

Listen. Even we must admit that it is next to impossible to consistently serve up the best memes that exist on the internet. There are simply too many memes and not enough witty, intelligent and funny people creating them these days. But if we are being totally sincere about why and when we seek out these tasty morsels of comedy, the best of the best really isn't necessary. If any of you are anything like us, funny memes are needed to fill the abyss that forms when you are overworked and overti…

The hardware store always felt like magical place when I was growing up. While my dad walked around buying whatever home improvement and hardware essentials the house needed, I could roam the sawdust-scented aisles in blissful ignorance. The shining toilets fascinated me, as did the massive refrigerators with two doors and, get this, an ice maker. Fancy appliances like that offered a window into a life that never felt possible for me. Spoiler alert: I still don't have this coveted type of fridg…

The Star Trek universe is a very special one. Somehow, Gene Roddenberry created a world - and television shows - that have always felt impressively progressive in both characters and storyline. From the original series, to some of the more controversial and new offerings, the stories promote tolerance, curiosity, and peace. Which is impressive given the insane scope of the universe. It's incredible that despite all their different customs, cultures, and quirks, most of the species seem to get a…

Hold it right there. Before you go any further, let me just say that I'm glad you're here. I appreciate you. No matter what you've got going in your life, just know that your dedication to memes has not gone unnoticed, and it's people like you who make the internet such a fun and exciting place. Even if you're the kind of person who immediately hits up the comment section to smugly point out which memes are old because you saw them on Reddit a few weeks ago, even if you're that guy who comments…
