While we know there's an entire Thanos Did Nothing Wrong movement, we can't help but feel that the big purple villain deserves very little sympathy. This meme works with this theme. After Thanos is overpowered (briefly) by the Guardians of the Galaxy, Mantis cries out that he is in anguish, and that he mourns. Drax asks her what such a monster could mourn, and memers are now filling in the blanks. You can expect a lot of very specific anime and gaming memes to come out of this one, but we're hoping for some more seriously righteous shitposts.

SPOILER ALERT!
After the insane whirlwind of the latest Marvel installment, most fans are seriously shook and possibly in need of therapy. Here's an assortment of Twitter reactions that anyone who has seen the film will relate to.
Beloved filmmaker Kevin Smith suffered a massive heart attack last night following a stand-up special, and took to Twitter to express his gratitude and relief. The news shocked celebrities and fans alike, most notably Chris Pratt. The sitcom-turned-action star sent Smith his prayers following the near-death experience - but didn't receive the response one would expect.
There's been a huge amount of backlash regarding our nation's use of "thoughts and prayers" in dire situations - especially ones that could have been avoided. Several Twitter users took this opportunity to liken Pratt's "prayers" with those uttered following tragedies such as school shootings. Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn was having none of this - and quickly came to Pratt's defense with a smart and poignant Twitter thread.
