If you didn't pay much attention during history or hate reading dumb books, these memes might help you seem smarter. They won't help you write an award-winning essay, but they might help you in random conversation or when you're trying to impress someone who is only moderately intelligent. So who said memes have no educational value?

You're all probably well aware of the monumental fire that scorched the historic Notre Dame cathedral in Paris on Monday. Clearly this was a terrible tragedy and the aftermath of it will likely take years to fully restore. That of course hasn't stopped ruthless memers everywhere from doing what they do best...
Most recently, people have been making fun of a viral tweet by Kaylee Crain, who tweeted a photo of an unscathed cross and altar in the cathedral aftermath, challenging those who still do not believe in God to justify themselves. People have been pointing out to Ms. Crain that the cross is made out of metal, which has a higher melting point than wood.
Have these toasty memes and tweets gone too far? We'll let you be the judge of that because we're just here to witness the dumpster fire (sorry, too soon, we know).
Yesterday's fire at Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral was an undeniable tragedy. The nearly 1,000 year old church burned as the entire world watched. While some people took to social media with heartfelt concern and personal anecdotes, others took a more f*cked up approach. Most of them, unsurprisingly, were memers. Here are the fruits of their messed up minds. We're just glad most of the art and artifacts were rescued. It makes us feel less guilty for the memes.

Donald Trump met with French President Emmanuel Macron yesterday, telling reporters what a special relationship the United States has with France. During the meeting, Trump wiped an invisible speck of dandruff from Macron's shoulder while Macron looked on in utter humiliation. Fittingly, the internet is roasting the entire situation to hell.
It's been a fun week for political memes. While Donald Trump's friend "Jim" has been the subject of skepticism since as early as 2016, the marvelous mystery has once again been thrust into the spotlight by the Associated Press. Their July 13th piece, "Trump in Paris: The curious case of his friend Jim" was covered by outlets such as HuffPo and the AV Club, and inspired a healthy number of Twitter jokes. We've put together the most noteworthy Jim jokes from the past year, for your convenient viewing pleasure.
