Have y'all ever realized that politics can be kind of boring? That's why we're so lucky to have memes to spice current events up with wacky main characters. People who aren't on social media miss out on the fun side of politics facilitated by memes. While the events of January 6th were crazy and memeable in their own right, a new meme man has emerged from the hearings of the storming of the Capitol, and that meme's name is Clark Kent .

Although Batman's Gotham City is allegedly inspired by New York , they are fundamentally different places. Even in the most crime-ridden parts of NYC, having a cast of uniquely themed, colorful villains running around town is unprecedented. That led some Twitter users to wonder, what would it be like to be an average citizen of Gotham City? The discussion started with one Twitter user asking if others would be willing to live in Gotham if the rent was as cheap as $300 per month. Naturally, livi…

Are you tired? Do you want to go back to bed? Are you a sleepy baby who doesn't want to go to your pathetic little job? Well, you don't have to!

There's a somewhat infamous /tv/ “favorite movie lines” thread on 4chan in which someone humorously misquoted a character from American Psycho saying, "Patrick, it's you!! You're the American Psycho?!!" Another user replied, “He didn't say that,” escalating the thread into a barrage of ironic shitposts inspired by the OP's American Psycho joke. For example, an image of Frodo captioned, “That's why I'm the Lord of the Rings , not you Sam.” Putting movie titles in movie lines has since become a p…

Another day, another superhero debate.

From funny emo batman skits, to thorough explanations on why having emo Batman was important—TikTok is the go-to place for everything Emo Batman.

There's a new Batman in town and to the delight of millions of millennials, he's emo, brooding, and a little bit weird. Matt Reeves' The Batman is the pulpy noir that fans of the Caped Crusader's iconic Detective Comics era have been waiting for.

What would happen if movie women approached sex like movie men? What if movie men did rom-coms like movie women? And why the heck don't we have a gay noir yet!? In this episode of ‘Your Brain On Cracked,’ "Doctor" Jordan Breeding sets out to diagnose just how angry and confused everybody would be.
