Some memes do not age well. Like an abandoned loaf of bread in the pantry, you can read their age in one foul sniff. They smell like 2012 and whatever sick place you were in life during the year of Call Me Maybe and twee. Many current memes read like a real who's who of modern online discourse. If you show these memes to people who have never been on Twitter, they be completely incomprehensible to them. The ideal meme does not fall into either one of those camps. Sure, sometimes you want to go…

Sometimes 12-year-old-boy humor hits just right.

The internet was so much simpler when everyone labeled anything slightly non-normative as “cursed.” Any image that did not depict the most normie, understandable, easily graspable concept was designed an affront to God or some kind of spooky

Lunch hour woes

Most jobs have pretty simple schedules. You go in during the morning, leave at night, sleep, and come back the next morning. Nursing is not “most jobs.” When you're a nurse, you could be working the night shift one day, and working a day shift another day. It really does a number on your circadian rhythm. Once you get a big girl job, you'd think you'd have a more consistent schedule, going in the same time every week and getting used to the admittedly strange hours you need to work. If you're a…

Revving up

Whoa there

The end of the weekend can be difficult. Energy is at an all-time low (at least it is on our Sundays) and almost any form of inane entertainment will keep us enraptured enough to forget about Monday's impending doom. You can turn on the television and get sucked into some series about a serial killer, or some wartorn country, and actually feel pretty good about your current station. Even if you're just scrolling mindlessly through your Instagram feed, it beats having to acknowledge that soon yo…

We are living in the golden age of the anime fandom. Long past are the days of weebs being bullied and degraded for their interests in anime series and movies. Now, even the most normal normie has seen at least one piece of anime IP. I went to a high school in Texas that was utterly obsessed with athletic achievement, and even there, most of the guys on the football team watched anime. If you're a weeb, you should hold your head high: Cosplay in public, brandish your favorite characters on your…

It's been a long day, and you've done so much. You've accomplished what many people have failed at: continuing to be alive. Whether you spent that day ignoring your chores and watching Frasier reruns or climbing Mount Kilimanjaro for the second time, you deserve a nice long sleep. Whether the night is young or elderly, you can get some shut-eye . But not just yet. After all, you need to accomplish at least one last thing before you go to bed. Why not consume a story? Consuming a story might ver…

Not all dads are created equal. And not all dads are technically dads . See, while some Dads stay up late to help with homework, or teaching their progeny to shoot hoops (or paper into a trashcan), there are those who can be considered nothing short of distant. There are also those who aren't in the picture. So in this sense, some moms are dads, and then there are the grandpas who are “dads” to their grandkids. So the thing is, “dad humor” as we know it can never be solely for the fathers that…

Good evening, or morning, internet users, abusers and even lamenters. It is not a big secret that life is a largely torturous experience, and that our blip of an existence is completely futile. That said, most of us can't help but crave the chance to do what we want with that fleeting amount of time. If we are being totally honest, the whole hustling and grinding things isn't particularly high on that list of chosen activities. So when the workweek is at our backs, or just starting (we hate you…

Here comes the airplane
