halloween

With new Covid-19 cases spiking in parts of the country, Halloween was pretty bleak for most of us this year—not a trick-or-treater or festive party in sight. But that didn't stop celebs from going all out and posting their costumes on Instagram anyway. While some chose pretty classic Halloween getups, others donned costumes with an unmistakable 2020 tinge. We saw a few Mike Pence flies and essential workers, but luckily no one went as the dreaded coronavirus. Travis Scott wore an all-brown Batman getup that was not well-received by the internet. Travis was so roasted on social media that he ended up deactivating his Instagram account. damn. 

Take a peek at some of the most notable celeb ensembles.

As the worst Halloween in recent years comes to a close, it's safe to say that many of us are left bored and unsatisfied. Costume parties on Zoom feel weak and insufficient. Drinking themed cocktails isn't as fun when you're alone. These memes won't fill the orange and black void in our sad hearts, but they might just help to ease the pain a little. And that's all we can ask for. 

It's time for another round of recent tweets from the casual comedy talents of Twitter. We're always impressed by the rate at which people can churn out the jokes everyday—it's like their brains are highly efficient machines spitting out joke after joke onto a conveyor belt being fed right into Twitter. Damn. Enjoy these pleasant zingers and may they brighten your day.

Let's face it: Halloween 2020 absolutely blows. The world is definitely scarier, but it's not because we're at a haunted house or ghoulish gala. It's because people are dying and we're experiencing some pretty messed up political turmoil. To help combat our horrifying reality, we've put together a last dash collection of spooky memes that manage to capture the old spirit of Halloween. We may not get to celebrate properly until next year, but at least we've got the laughs.

Halloween is right around the corner and it probably won't be the most eventful holiday of all time, what with the global pandemic and all. It's a  a real shame because Halloween falls on a Saturday this year and there's going to be a full blue moon. The first full moon on Halloween in 76 years! *Sigh* Anyway, regardless of the obstacles, we're certain there's gonna be some very amusing and topical costumes this year, so we thought it might be fun to look back on all the times people dressed up as memes for Halloween. Bet you can't name all these classic memes.

As we approach the end of October (and Spooky Season) we need to pour one out for those early-to-mid Autumn feelings that fill us with joy. Y'know, like stepping on crunchy leaves. Apple picking. Getting lost in a corn maze for 6 hours because your parents didn't realize you were gone. Pumpkin Spice Lattes. These gallery of autumnal content covers all those bases and (of course) some of that Halloween spirit we're gonna be missing this year. 

Memes are way more than just a cheap distraction. Memes can uplift the spirit. Memes are like a busted fire-hydrant you find after walking five miles on the hottest day of the summer. Memes are like that leftover sandwich you just remembered after whining about having no food in the fridge. Memes are like your favorite song randomly coming on when you're shopping for toilet paper at the supermarket. Life would be a bummer without memes.

We're knee deep in "Spooky Season", and though there's no trick or treating to look forward to, people are still finding myriad ways to celebrate. From binge-watching horror movies to posting skeleton memes, the Halloween spirit is very alive on the internet. On Twitter, users have been flexing their creativity and humor with the hashtag #FakeScaryMovieFacts. It's pretty self explanatory: come up with a funny or dumb quip regarding your favorite bone-chilling film and then hurl it onto the timeline. While some of the tweets verge on cringe (cough politics cough). others showcase some serious wit. We've put all of our favorite examples here for your convenient perusal, but there's loads more to be found on Twitter. Enjoy the spooky fun while it lasts!

Twitter is pretty much the perfect joke farm for anyone hungry for some quick laughs. In can be a bit of a challenge weeding out the latest on this batshit year (sometimes we just want some simple, solid jokes), but don't worry because we've done all the work for you. These recent tweets are curated for anyone who's in the mood for a healthy chuckle without having to click on #metoobin or #internationalassday.   

Casual tweeter @paleoteny posted a video of 23-year-old Alex Jones on Wednesday, not expecting the short clip to blow up within minutes. If you're not already familiar with the infamous globalist-hater, all you really need to know is that he believes the Pentagon puts chemicals in the water that "turn the friggin' frogs gay." Young Alex Jones seems a bit more chill than his present-day self (which isn't saying much), but he still emits a familiar chaotic energy in the video.

Jones spends the entirety of the two-minute long clip casually hacking away at a pumpkin with a kitchen knife while confirming a caller's suspicions about FLIR Systems' thermal imaging technology and how "black helicopters are being used for surveillance of the public by police departments around the country." There are several strange things about this clip—the limp skeleton conspicuously turned away from the camera; the sudden jump-cuts to a closeup of Alice Cooper's severed head; the fact that Jones never wishes us a Happy Halloween—and yet people on Twitter didn't really seem to give a shit about any of that. Most of them either simped for the young and surprisingly handsome public access host, or entertained the conspiracy that Alex Jones is actually Bill Hicks. Take a look at the clip and decide for yourself! We've also included some of the best replies to the amusing throwback. 

While many of you may not need an excuse to binge horror movies, many people see "Spooky Season" as an excuse to pop some corn and enjoy a month of bloodcurdling screams, tense music, and campy themes. Being cooped up due to the pandemic has made this one of the more safe ways to enjoy the days leading up to Halloween. While it's unrealistic to expect to spend every night indulging in blood, gore, and anxiety, but we've got loads of horror-related memes to enjoy while someone else is in charge of the remote. They may not get your heart racing, but they will keep definitely keep that spooky spirit goin'. 

Feeling bored? Craving comedy? Need a spicy and scathing take to reinvigorate your sad brain? This gallery of tweets may be exactly what you're looking for. They're not going to win any prizes in the journalism department, but they may fill the unhappy and bored void in your heart temporarily. And that counts for something. 

It's Spooktober and we're literally shaking in anticipation for Halloween. We might spend the 31st hiding from creepy Covid-19 this year, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy some festive memes all month long! Here are 20 classic skeleton memes that will get you stoked for the chilly autumn season. 

It's that time of the year, folks. The leaves have started to fall. The air is cooler. It gets dark earlier. And things feel just a bit more creepy. While this "spooky season" is a little less fun because of coronavirus, we're still planning on embracing skeletons, fall treats, and of course - horror movies. We help these memes aid you in feelin' the spooky spirit, too.
