Tired of predictable and relatable memes? Sick of quarantine humor? These history memes might be the palate cleanser you need, for two reasons: A) We definitely can't relate to anyone who lived in Ancient Rome, and B) they're about all the absolute shits hows that happened before Covid-19. So even if the subject matter is bleak, at least the memes cover something that isn't being hammered into our poor, tired brains. Happy scrolling!

If you're tired of memes about coronavirus and lockdown, we've got the antidote for you. Instead of focusing on current events, these history memes culled from the depths of Reddit focus on the past. While some of them deal with pretty horrendous topics, they're still a welcome break from the craziness that's happening in the present. Enjoy the respite.

If you ever feel guilty about perusing memes as a form of procrastination, we'd like to introduce you to history memes. They're basically educational, so you can browse through them for as long as you damn well please. Completely guilt free. Even better? There's a pretty endless supply of them over at r/historymemes. 

When shit gets rough in the present, we often find ourselves turning to comedy based on the past. These history memes are a great reminder that other people have suffered as much or more than us. They're also pretty damn good for a laugh.

We don't mean to show our age, but damn, we hope schools have started incorporating history memes into lesson plans. We'd have been a whole lot more engaged if we could laugh through the classes - especially AP European History. This big gallery covers everything from Ancient Rome through World War II, a veritable smorgasbord of historical humor. So happy scrolling. You may end up smarter for it.

We firmly believe that nobody has to feel guilty for scrolling through memes, but these historical and educational memes are definitely nothing to feel ashamed about. Looking through these memes is basically studying.

We love perusing history memes on Reddit and Instagram because their educational nature absolves us of some of the guilt that comes with procrastinating. But just because a meme is educational doesn't mean it's normie. This big a$$ batch of memes comes with an extra dose of dank and a tasty sprinkle of edge. They're anything but boring.

You don't need to be a history scholar to appreciate the informed comedy of these history memes. From Henry VIII to classic World War II memes, these jokes will make you feel like you aced history class, whether you did or not. And if these memes don't satisfy your nerdy cravings, these historical tidbits of humor might do the trick.

Paging all history nerds! These historical memesare a little more specific than our usual galleries - and they'll please anyone with a bizarre fascination with the Roman Empire. If your interest in the past covers broader subjects, check out this wider variety of history memes. They'll only disappoint if you're anything less than a meme scholar.
