funny

On a scale of dankalicious to extremely stupid, these memes are all over the spectrum. A perfect range of humor for those in desperate need of a quick and easy distraction. If you're starting to feel fatigued by the day's mundane tasks, this is your time to procrastinate with some funny content. You deserve it.

We're not fans of bullying or "othering" people but roasting is a thing all it's own. If people ask for it, roasting and toasting should definitely be fair game. So don't feel too guilty scrolling through these owns. They got what they asked for.

During more "normal times" we relish seeing restaurant owners call out unreasonable customers for bullshit reviews. Now, while restaurant workers and bartenders are risking their lives to cater to entitled people, we find that we relish the takedowns even more. Today we come to you with a classic Karen tale from Hucknall in the UK. This Karen, whose real name is Jo, took to Facebook to express her dismay at being kicked out of a restaurant after spending  £700 on a birthday celebration at the venue. 

The restaurant quickly responds - correcting her lies (the party spent about a quarter of that) and calling her group out for their drunken and entitled behavior. It's an expert takedown that requires only facts to make the Karen (and her entire family) seem out of line. And we think you'll find it pretty entertaining.

Ever take a step back from your life and wonder if you're just doing it wrong? It's easy to feel that way when you compare yourself to your parents. Many of us deal with these feelings, especially if we've surpassed the age at which our creators decided they were ready to bring life into this godforsaken world. A new Wojak comic meme completely excels at utilizing this theme, and the results are our favorite kind of self-deprecating humor. The meme basically compares what our parents were doing (making commitments, investing in the future) with what we're doing at that age. The punchline is that in 2020, we're doing shit that's way less mature. You know, making mistakes like eating pills of the ground or infantilizing ourselves with phrases like "I'm baby." While some of these memes hit home pretty hard, a couple of them are great reminders that progress is possible. It's also important to remembe that the world was a different place when our parents were our age. It's always better to focus on one's self and the possibilities we do have. 

It should be known by now that we enjoy mocking other people's misforunte - and as schadenfreude goes, these amusing tales are pretty lighthearted. When Twitter user @lillyannatrnr shared a facepalm-worthy serving anecdote from her boyfriend's past, we're willing to bet she didn't think she was starting a thread of epic proportions. But his ignorance regarding creme fraiche and the laughs that followed inspired other users to share their own food-service and grocery work blunders. The result? A massive thread of funny fails and punny verbal comedy. We've picked out some of the better gems for you, but you can see more hilarity at the thread itself.

We talk a lot about kiling the monotony with memes and tweets. It's true that even they can become monotonous, but at least these funny tidbits have the potential to make you chuckle your way through life's unending trials and tribulations. From bleak and relatable anecdotes, to memes that might leave you feeling personally attacked, this gallery's got a little something for everyone.

There is SO much funny and entertaining content all over the internet which makes it difficult to parse it all down into a cohesive, themed gallery. So how about we don't do that. How about we just throw a bunch of dank memes, funny tweets, and bizarre pics into a big, unwieldy pile. This would be more true to the internet experience, after all. There's one big difference though—we always weed out the bad content. 

We've got to hand it to these lazy individuals. In the most creative way possible, these craftsmen and construction workers absolutely refused to do someone else's job. So they found workarounds that, while extremely amusing, may not have made their clients happy. But we're more than happy to show some appreciation for their efforts.

Sleep's been hard to come by what with all the insanity of 2020. If you're a student to boot? Forget about it. Some people say there aren't enough hours in the day, but we really believe there aren't enough hours in the night. Every morning it feels like we've been cheated. And opportunities for naps once you're out of school are pretty damn slim. Unless, y'know, you're a depression napper. But those never lead to feeling rested. Whatever your reason for needing more sleep all the time, we're willing to bet these memes will resonate with you. Just don't let them occupy too much of your slumber time. Every minute counts.

Some people in this world only want the freshest and most niche memes. Others want the tried and true memes of yore. This gallery is a mix of the two. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters to us is having funny content to distract ourselves from the pain of reality. And these memes really do the trick.

We know. This title belongs in r/brandnewsentence. But today's weirdest news comes courtesy of Johnny Rotten, the frontman of legendary punk band the Sex Pistols. It seems the 64 year old had befriended some neighborhood squirrels and welcomed the critters into his Venice Beach home. Unfortunately, their thank you was a lot less wholesome than his fostering attempt. "I looked down there this morning at my willy and there's a f–ing flea bite on it," Rotten explained to the UK's Daily Star. "The bites, wow, last night was murder because of it. The itching too. It's such a poxy thing to get caught out on.The only way around it, because I'm not going to blame the poor little squirrels, is to Vaseline my legs." "I just hope they don't get the wrong idea," he continued. 

The experience sounds dreadful - and people on Twitter are absolutely roasting the singer's itchy experience. Johnny Rotten's outspoken support for Donald Trump and MAGA have already been under fire for being completely antithetical to his punk past - and it seems that fans that have turned their back on him are relishing the opportunity to mock his misfortune. However you feel about this bizarre story, it's definitely proof that 2020 has a lot more tricks up its sleeve.

It's been a long three years of waiting for the World of Warcraft: Shadowlands expansion to drop, but today's the day, and fans couldn't be happier. The release was originally scheduled for October 27th, so this last month has been especially painful for those aching to spend most of their waking hours gaming. As is to be expected, anxious gamers have been filling Reddit and Twitter with memes about Shadowlands. Some have to do with the anxiety-inducing process of choosing a covenant. Others focus more on relinquishing sleep for gameplay. We're just happy to have another way to occupy ourselves during all these quarantines and lockdowns. Shadowlands couldn't have come at a better time.

Twitter can be exhausting sometimes having to sift through the same not-so-hot take regurgitated over and over again. Just hand over the good jokes, amiright? We've curated a pretty good selection of hilarious tweets by the comedy novices and experts of Twitter to save you from the scroll fatigue. If you're in the mood to see some witty zingers and silly 280-character stories without wading through the monotony of Twitter, this is the gallery for you. 

This gallery of memes isn't for the haughty conoisseurs. It's for people who are okay with nodding at a decent meme, or perhaps even shaking ther heads at a meme that is arguably pretty dumb. It's hard to please everyone all the time. But these funny tweets and tidbits, while maybe mediocre, are still more than adequate for wasting time and boosting that dopamine. And that's what matters. 

We all like to think that when up against temptation, we'd prove a worthy opponent. Unfortunately, when we're blessed with the convenience and distraction of internet and television, staying strong can be hard. We're only human. So instead of mindlessly scrolling through the news, or the bleak hellscape that is Twitter, we're here to offer some memes in your time of procrastination. Let's face it: they'll probably make you feel better than most procrastination options.
