Anyone else here ever get into the show Killing Eve? It's got everything: assassins, murder, hot people, comedy, and lots of steamy sexual tension. The story is centered around Eve Polastri ( Sandra Oh ), an MI5 desk jockey who is very, very bored with her job, and thus, her life. Some missteps lead to Poastri joining MI6 as an undercover agent tasked with tracking an extremely hot female assassin by the name of Villanelle ( Jodie Comer) . Despite Eve's history of boredom, it's Villanelle that…

Greetings, internet users and abusers. It's Thursday, January 26th, and today feels just like any other. I got up, got out of bed, dragged a comb (brush) across my head. I opened up my ThinkPad and went to Twitter.com like I do every day from Monday to Friday. As per usual, I almost immediately closed the laptop and prayed to the powers that be. Why? Because perusing Twitter for quality content can be so disheartening. Fortunately, betwixt the rantings and ravings of political lunatics, and the…

When I was a kid I used to sit in my basement and watch the same damn movies over and over again. Pocahontas, Wild America, Independence Day, The Goonies, and the Lord of the Rings trilogy (okay, that's three movies, but I'm counting it as one). It's true that we had the internet , but as far as I was concerned, watching LOTR for the hundredth time was way more appealing than sitting around for several minutes waiting for the dial-up to do its thing so that I could continue downloading "track00…

Wake up

Very fancy

What will it be

It is Wednesday, my dudes. If you've spent any time on Reddit over the past few years, you're probably familiar with the inside joke, which originated in the r/me_irl subreddit. Frogs, toads, and Redditors aside, Wednesday is supposedly a day worth celebrating. But we don't really see it. Wednesday is a marker, a reminder that there's still half a week left of working - at least, that is, if you're a 9-5 office drone like we are here at Memebase. To celebrate “hump day” is to feed into the syst…

They deserve memes the most

They've got texture

Are you guys bored? I'm not bored! As a gross and hot David Thewlis once said in the Mike Leigh movie Naked : "Was I bored? No, I wasn't f*ckin' bored. I'm never bored. That's the trouble with everybody - you're all so bored. You've had nature explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the living body explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the universe explained to you and you're bored with it." As angsty and Gen X as that statement is, I can't help but agree with it.…

Over here at ye Olde Memebase we understand the demand for simple and relatable memes . There's really nothing wrong with memes that are easy and accessible. But after years of scrolling through that simple and easily-consumed content, we kind of tend to appreciate weirder memes. You know, memes that might be surreal, or even completely nonsensical. Memes that make you scratch your head, or even weird you out. And, of course, memes that are ever so slightly offensive. If this sounds like a coll…

I was not a cool kid. Up until high school, my experiences with friendship generally started with convenience and were maintained by mutual interests. But because I was not cool, these interests were a bit unorthodox. I was obsessed with reading ultra-bleak history tomes, as well as even bleaker fiction. Much of my choices surrounded World War II , and in particular, the Holocaust. I had learned at a young age that my grandfather's family was all but exterminated in their home in Ukraine, for t…
