dank memes

If you don't totally understand all of these memes, then don't worry too much. Dank memes are meant to be extra bizarre, to the point that you kind of need to be an internet junkie to fully understand them all. Think of them as the internet's most niche inside jokes.

These "life hacks" aren't going to be elevating your quality of life because they're useful.They're going to elevate your quality of life because they're absolutely guaranteed to make you laugh. 

This meme was inspired by YouTuber and internet personality Egoraptor, AKA Arin Hanson. People have been using a still of him saying "do it again" to represent moments of forgetfulness, among other amusing and strange workings of the human brain.

These memes are for the downtrodden and the depressed. The lonely and the anxious. They're also for people who are normally happy and bubbly, but are now feeling a case of the summertime sadness. We see you, and we hear you. And you're certainly not alone. 

Thank god we've made it through this hellish week to Friday!  The incredible reward for your toiling and misery is, you guessed it, a metric f*ckton of dank memes, funny jokes, and a dash of self-deprecation. 

There are some memes that just NEVER get old, and Star Wars memes (whether they're prequel or sequel memes) definitely fall into that category. These examples are particularly dank, with some extra fresh memes mixed in. Chances are that even if you're not the nerdiest fan, there will be more than a few jokes for you to chuckle at.

If you're at all sensitive about cuss words, this ain't the meme for you. Amazon's new hit show 'The Boys' is a story about vigilantes with super powers who try to keep pompous and dangerous superheroes accountable. To say they're a bit rough around the edges would be an understatement, and that's pretty damn evident from this meme. The format is ripped from the series' first episode, in which Billy (played by Australian actor Karl Urban) initiates a fight with a superhero aptly named Translucent. His colorful utterance has been embraced by dank meme making communities on Facebook and Reddit, and shows no signs of slowing down. Here are some of our favorite examples so far.

Deadline reported yesterday that Disney (who owns the Marvel cinematic universe) and Sony had failed to reach an agreement regarding the distribution of income for future Marvel Spider-Man installations - which basically means that Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige would not be attached to any future Spider-Man films. Much to the dismay of fans, this also means there may not be any more Marvel-produced Spidey films. The developments have received criticism from fans and media outlets alike, resulting in fans creating some seriously disappointed memes. We're trying not to get too freaked out by the news, as nothing is permanent. But we're definitely not looking forward to another Spidey-verse. Hasn't the kid been through enough? 

Y'all deserve a serious pat on the back for making it through Terrible Tuesday. Or perhaps a Popeyes chicken sandwich, since that's what everyone is talking about. Whether you decide to indulge in fast food or physical rewards, these memes will make low-calorie way of lifting your mood after a boring day or even one that feels as though it were spawned in hell. 

If you like self-deprecating memes, then you've come to the right place! "Glass Book Page Holder" memes remind us of all the things we don't have, for better or for worse (but more often for worse). You can find even more self-deprecating humor here and here!

Everyone loves nostalgia, and this trending dank meme relies heavily on those wistful feelings to drive their joke across. Nerf guns may exist now, but they're not nearly as present as they seemed to be when your old AF editors were in their Nerf-shooting days. Besides the hours of tomfoolery, there's one thing about Nerf guns has always stood out to us: the fact that the darts always seem to disappear. It doesn't matter if you're shootin' them in a big field or a small room with no furniture. The damn things seem to vanish in thin air. We're not sure if it's a conspiracy orchestrated by the Nerf bigwigs or if there's some sort of parallel universe where the Nerf darts are located. We do know, however, that we appreciate r/dankmemes for shedding light on these mysteries. Now we just need a History channel investigation.

Controversial filmmaker Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood) became the unwitting star of some dank memes following a visit to a Russian apartment earlier this month. The director toured the Kremlin while visiting Moscow for a premiere of his latest film, and these clever photoshops of his visit were ripped from Twitter to be utilized as some seriously relatable memes. We're no strangers to aimless apartment pacing, drunk or sober - and most of these memes hit the nail on head. 

Completely sapped after a long Monday of pain? We've got something that will help you out. These dank memes and funny pics will re-energize you so that you can make the most of of the time that matters - the time you're not spending on the clock! 

We always love a good Spongebob meme, and it's even better when it's dank and relatable. This particular meme was inspired by this scene in the show, in which Spongebob decides that he is no longer afraid of the Flying Dutchman.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy this spicy meme, entitled "Spongebob sees Flying Dutchman."

It's time to get in touch with your basic b*tch and embrace Hard Seltzer. White Claw and Bon & Viv (thought they were simply Spiked Seltzer back in the day) have been on the scene since 2016 and 2012, respectively. While it's taken almost ten years for these low-carb boozy beverages to take off, they've officially become the most insane booze trend of the summer. While White Claw definitely wins the award for most-memed hard seltzer, Natural Light and Four Loko have both announced competing beverages with higher alcohol volumes. Four Loko's 14.5% ABV might be something we are a little afraid of, we're still reveling in these memes. They're something we can enjoy until we can crack open a claw of our own.
