Apparently 'National Hug Your Cat Day' exists. We don't know who started it or how the day came to be, but to be honest, we're not interested in answers because it seems too important to question. In observation of this joyous day, we're celebrating with a bunch of hilarious content for crazy cat parents and casual feline-enjoyers alike.
There's no doubt that cats can be real a-holes sometimes. They duel our limbs to the death when all we want is affection. They slowly push valuable objects off the table while making eye-contact. They scream at 6 a.m. even though their bowl is half-full. Despite it all, we humans are still dedicating a day to hugging these ungrateful creatures. That's unconditional love right there.

This page is for the Funny memes tag and is intended to include memes that are "trying" to be funny, as well as actual "funny memes", which is a subtle, yet very important inclusion detail that we felt needed to be pointed out. We also keep an updated list of the best funny memes which are filtered and sorted based on basic social media metrics. We've been told some of those are pretty funny.
It can be scary to think how much our brains have been irreversibly changed by the internet. Sure, experts might like to point to the reduced attention span or the worse sleep quality, but it could probably be argued that one of the most important effects has been on our sense of humor. Did we always laugh at stuff this deliciously dumb? Possibly. However, it can't have come with the amount or variation we see in memes. If anything, that's all the more reason to cherish being born at a similar time to the advent of social media. Even if we're being used as human guinea pigs, at least we have fun doing it.

Metal isn't for everyone. And we don't really have to say that. Being a fan of heavy, dark, and often evil-sounding music isn't for everyone. You could say it's an acquired taste. But once you've acquired that taste? You're a metalhead for life. And as is the case with most art forms, metal (and its many subgenres) has become the subject of quite a few memes. There are quite a few subreddits and even a Facebook page dedicated to memes of the metal variety. This collection features a little bit of everything. Wholesome metal memes.Memes for Meshuggah fans. And then, of course, memes that roast people who claim to listen to "everything." Cuz let's face it: not everyone can handle this sh*t.

Happy hump day, people. While it's no secret that life is pain, and that existence is meaningless, it's true that we don't want to spend the bulk of our waking hours at work. So when Wednesday rolls along and that light at the end of the tunnel starts looking brighter, we all start to feel a little less defeatist. And when you're not feeling completely absorbed by the dull patterns of a hapless future, it's a little bit easier to do stuff that, ya know, makes things feel a little better. Like looking at memes.
Every day we wake up in our silly little beds and get ready to push our silly little metaphorical boulders up the mountain of futility, knowing full well it'll all come tumbling down once we approach the peak. Why? Why must we complete these fruitless tasks that contribute little to the whole of humanity? Is this all there is? Does the product of six million years of human evolution really look like a hoard of joyless drones who sleep so they can work and work so they can sleep?
Ha ha, just kidding! Of course there's more to life than just labor and depression. There's also memes! Memes to help us through the pain and futility of existence. Sometimes it feels like the only thing we have left is humor, so let's squeeze every last drop of serotonin out of these dumb memes and fight through the misery.

Fans of Brooklyn Nine-Nine may not have wanted it to be true, but the premiere date has been set for the comedy's final season: August 12th. That feels like an eternity from now, but while viewers wait for the beginning of the end, they've been able to enjoy some memes that are ripped straight from the show's 4th season. The scene involves Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg) and Jess Day (Zooey Deschanel) meeting in a crossover episode between Nine-Nine and New Girl.
In the episode, Peralta attempts to commandeer Jess' vehicle to . But she doesn't buy that he's even an officer. As Peralta tries to convince her of his occupation, they have the following exchange:
Jake: "I'm not a thug, I'm police."
Jess: "Okay, then name one law."
Jake: "Don't kill people?"
Jess: (silently) "That's on me, i set the bar too low."
Turns out that the back and forth, when neatly packaged into a four-panel image, makes for easy meme-ing. We say easy because these are far from high brow image macros. Instead, they fulfill the theme of the joke by setting the bar real low. And attack some of the world's favorite books, movies, and actors in the process.

It's impossible to articulate the magic of memes. It's really just a vibe. Maybe that's part of why memes are so special—they transcend conventional language.

Coincidentally, we've got a bunch of quality memes right here. Take a scroll and let us know if you agree.
