Let's not beat around the bush here; getting rejected sucks, big time. These brave Twitter users decided to meme themselves by posting a pic of their romantic rejection messages next to a selfie, captioning it "The Rejection...the Clown." 

Of course, the attempts weren't actually that clownish for the most part, but who doesn't love a little self-deprecating humor from time to time? We certainly get a kick out of it.

Heh, get it? The It meme? Sorry, couldn't resist. 

In honor of the September 6th release of It: Chapter 2, we're bringing you these dank memes entitled, "Bill Hader Running From Pennywise" from behind the scenes of the movie. We just hope that Bill Hader's reaction to Bill Skarsgård was genuine!

For some reason, the meme-iverse is totally obsessed with clowns right, and to be honest we're absolutely loving this particular trending clown meme, known as "Putting On Clown Makeup." 

The meme stems from a 2015 YouTube video instructing viewers how to apply clown makeup in five steps and of course, memers took advantage of the opportunity to make fun of people who make utter fools of themselves.

You don't need to be familiar with the game Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney to appreciate these memes. The format features a high definition screenshot of Miles Edgeworth, who appears to be saying "You are not a clown, you are the entire circus." The line is actually from a viral tweet from Twitter user @javeigh. The pairing works astonishingly well, and has quickly morphed from a Twitter joke into a full fledged meme. Here are some of our favorites.

The shift from September to October is generally palpable, though many of us are still enjoying unseasonably warm weather. There's a little more bite to the air, the leaves are changing, and we're suddenly experiencing that annual excitement for Halloween. Spook-enthusiasts all over the internet are showing their glee for the impending holiday with these memes that are supposed to symbolize how pumped we all are. Twitter's been churning them out real quickly, but we'd love to see your renditions: share them in the comments!
