You gotta love when Hide the Pain Harold makes a comeback in a brand new dank meme. This particular meme features perhaps the world's most famous stock photo model (whose real name is Andras Arato) giving a TED Talk last June, during which he says, "It's a role given to me by the internet people." And thus, a brand new meme was born!

Is your day getting started a little too slowly? When you have to wake up at the crack of dawn for work it can feel like the day is just dragging on forever. It's kind of the worst. And let's be real, you probably don't really have anything to be doing. Have some memes to at least help keep your crippling boredom at bay.

Nothing says you have started your week successfully, than sitting down at your computer and wasting at least an hour checking out the latest dank memes to pop up. Since procrastination is the name of the game, you can easily burn away the daylight hours you should be spending working and being a productive, contributing member of society. Or you can find your new favorite meme. The choice is yours, but remember: only the cool kids look at memes instead of toeing the line.

Bless his heart, 70 year old András Arató aka "Hide the Pain Harold" on the internet, is a pretty good sport about being internet famous for looking like he's dying on the inside. Though he was initially not happy about it, Harold realized that it's all in good fun.
Make sure you have captions turned (or speak Hungarian, either way) and take a look at the man behind the meme.
Most of the time, stock photo models are just grinning idiots with no emotion. Where's the pathos? The agony? The heartache? The evil? Harold tries to be like those grinning idiots, but that haunting gaze betrays his façade of happiness. Look into the Abyss long enough, and it begins to look back at you.
