Welcome to the world, little dude! The royal family announced the birth of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's son, whom they gave quite an unusual name: Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, to be precise. Quite a mouthful, eh?
While the name itself was already a prime target of jokes, Twitter went off after Daily Express tweeted that the couple had chosen "UNUSUAL name for baby that UNIFIES the US and UK." Bizarre choice of headline, as you'll be able to see down below!
The internet really seems to love roasting wanted criminals for their physical attributes (remember Neck Guy?) and this kid is of no exception. The 18-year-old cross-eyed burglar got roasted pretty hard when the Northamptonshire Police department in the UK posted his wanted notice on Facebook.
We almost feel kind of bad for this poor kid, as he can't exactly help that he's cross-eyed, but at the same time, these puns are just too much. They'll definitely make you say, "iris I thought of that one."
British Sky News anchor Jayne Secker has come under fire for her patronizing comments yesterday in an interview with Kirsty Archer, a young politician who stated that the cost of living in London is far too high for many people, and that getting evicted from a rental home could cost a tenant £2,000.
Secker, who is a landlord herself, countered Archer's comments by claiming that it's the young renters who are at fault here because they do not have the "basic skills" (including changing a light bulb and knowing how to turn on their heaters) to rent homes.
Secker later issued an "apology" tweet for her comments, which some are calling out for being a non-apology. You can watch the Sky News video and read some of Twitter's reactions to it below!
When you've lived in one place your whole life, you get used to the various customs and behaviors that are standard in your country. So much so that traveling abroad can be a huge culture shock for a lot of people. These American Redditors are sharing the things they realized are completely unique to American culture.
These weird-as-hell "Scottish Pokemon Trainer" memes stem from the the Galar region in Pokemon Sword and Shield, which many have noticed uncannily resembles the UK. Accordingly, people have been creating memes that parody the Scottish accent and dialect that none of us Americans can understand at all.
We're not entirely sure what to make of these memes, but we sure got a kick out of them - see for yourself!
The newest scandal involving rapper 21 Savage was arguably more exciting than the Super Bowl on Sunday. If you haven't heard, 21 Savage was arrested on Sunday morning in Atlanta by ICE, with allegations that the rapper is actually a British citizen and is residing illegally in the US. Memers have been relentlessly making fun of 21 Savage, joking that his lyrics seem less...shall we say, foreboding now that we know this information?
On January 4th, The Museum of English Rural Life tweeted at The British Museum to send over their "best duck," which ignited a whole bunch of smack talk between different British museums, and soon branched out to museums across the pond (heh) as well.
As you're about to see, museums are straight ruthless.
Earlier this month, English British Prime Minister Theresa May caught our attention while awkwardly dancing to ABBA's "Dancing Queen." This was not the first time that May went viral for her dancing, but these photos from her appearance at the UK Conservative Conference definitely win most meme-able. It's taken a couple weeks, but this meme format has become nearly unavoidable - a great representation of when people just march on in a way that is very entitled, sneaky or downright stupid.
Museums across the UK (and many other places now) are tweeting their own memes under the tag #MusMeme, and we've gotta say, some of them are actually pretty damn clever. These memes are equal parts cringe, geeky and freaking hysterical!
