Congratulations, you've officially almost made it entirely over the hump. For some people, that means absolutely nothing. That's because some people are exempt from the tortures of a Monday through Friday, nine to five workweek. As for the rest of us, this calls for a celebration. When celebrating milestones like hump day , you want to be careful not to have too much fun, because that will alter your productivity on Thursday and Friday. It's a delicate balance. That's why we like to cut loose b…

It feels like an eternity since it was announced that Chris Pratt would be lending his voice to the role of Nintendo's Mario, but it's actually been just over a year. Since then, the internet backlash seemed to fade to a murmur, but it's back, baby, and we're here for it.

If Twitter is a dangerous minefield, you can consider me the website's bravest soldier. It would seem that at every corner on the damn site there's something cringey , disturbing, or just plain idiotic to be seen. Sometimes it's an unhinged rant from some hypocritical political figure. Other times it's a terrible take from somebody who has taken wokeness or conservatism way, way too far. Other times, still, it's simply a minefield that consists of tweets from K-pop stans and BTS fans who insist…

I do not feel good. Why? Because it's been raining cats and dogs in New York. Even worse, it's become much too cold for my liking. As I write this I'm wearing 4 layers and am contorted into a position that nobody should be in while attempting to write. If I didn't have back problems before, I certainly have them now. But what are my options? Shivering at the crappy chair my old bosses purchased for the office? Falling asleep in the bathroom? Drinking all the beers that our office manager bought…

Tuesday's greetings, y'all. We're back with another big batch of delightfully dumb Lord of the Rings memes. And man, are the Rings of Power memes growing on us. The show was just injected with quite a bit of excitement - so you can expect a few spoilers in this batch. Most of the memes about the Amazon series have to do with our boy, Adar. The goth-looking dark elf has managed to attract quite the following amongst fans of the show, and it's not hard to see why. He's definitely got a villainous…

Dogs are absolutely precious and need to be protected at all costs. Even as a relatively recent " cat person ," there's no way I can turn my back on the adorable, loyal, and sometimes smelly creatures I grew up with. The bond shared with a pet is strong, and there's something about a dog bond that can't be replicated. Their eyes, full of devotion. Their grief when you leave home. Most of all, when I think about dogs, I think about Teddy, my family's long-deceased Wheaten Terrier. Teddy was amaz…

It's unrealistic to think everyone in the world has a diverse set of interests. For much of my life I've felt like a boring person. It's not because I'm bored all the time, and not because I have zero talents. But because all I really care about (besides my loved ones) is food. Cooking it. Eating it. Looking at it. When I get together with friends, it usually involves some sort of delicious treat or food-related activity such as making pizza in a backyard or engaging in a themed cooking competi…

If you're studying hard for that chemistry exam and you've just about had enough, these dumb memes might offer a bit of relief while still keeping you in a sort of educational zone. It's true that science isn't always fun - especially when you're dedicating hours of your life to the field. But memes have a way of making even our least favorite classes or subjects a little more enjoyable. These memes that reference the science s may not make you smarter, but at least you'll get to laugh for once…

Plant people are everywhere these days - especially the kind of people who revel in making their indoor spaces lush with green (or purple) plants both large and small. Some of my own friends have rooms so filled with vegetation that I come home with a couple sprigs of lord knows what in my hair or on my clothing. It seems like they need a bigger room to accommodate their green friends - or perhaps a whole ass greenhouse. Judging by the plant memes we've been seeing all over the internet, this c…

Remember that dude who asked a group of six year olds to pitch some film ideas? If not, here's a memory refresh. We're here to share that he's done it again: successfully exploited the marvelous minds of children for a viral moment on Twitter. And honestly? We're not mad about it. This time, @GeorgePointon_ has asked kids to share some business ideas.

People talk a lot about having “a case of the Mondays." If these cases are anything like my Mondays, then their weeks must start in a pretty pissed-off manner. In fact, if we're talking about anger and frustration at everything around you, then I have a case of “the Mondays” every damn day of the week. It's truly incredible how short my temper is. Anything can send me into a rage - be it a lack of coffee

There are memes for almost any subculture. You just need to know where to look. This became really clear to me after diving into the nerdy world of birding. As a kid, my Dad and I would visit parks and marshlands, Audubon book in hand, looking for birds both rare and common. While my favorites were always colorful or endangered (Roseate Spoonbill, anyone?), I've since broadened my formerly particular affections for avian life. While I never stopped enjoying scoping out the trees and forest floo…

Wasting time should be easy. Lord knows it passes by all too quickly. But somehow, even when we have a million different technologies, apps, and services to help us procrastinate or wile away the hours, we still encounter roadblocks. While sometimes the roadblocks come in the form of a poor internet connection or a dead phone, more often than not we're simply faced with content that we either hate or simply couldn't care less about. Twitter is one of our favorite ways to scroll ourselves to sle…

Have you ever pressed pause to think about the sheer number of memes that are being exchanged in the great expanse of the entire internet? The number of memes must be absolutely staggering. Just think: thousands, if not millions, ofv visual in-jokes are being passed around the internet at any given moment, making their way to the screens of ennui-afflicted web surfers such as yourselves. The variety of memes that are sashaying around the web is just as wide. But relatable memes and little jokes…

If you've been praying that we would stop enjoying Lord of the Rings memes, you are sh*t out of luck. Few things are certain in this world, but our undying affection for the Tolkien masterpieces (and the memes they inspire) is one of ‘em. That said, even our usual “Tolkien Tuesday” roundup can get a little boring every once in a while. Especially when so many of the memes are about The Rings of Power. To keep things a little more fresh, we’ve decided to share some Lord of the Rings memes that w…

As a lover of science fiction and fantasy , I am always hesitant - or unwilling - to choose a favorite of the genres. Both have many merits, and, like, why should I have to choose between them? I feel just as excited by clanging sword fights, magic spells, and pastoral views as I am about dystopian cyberpunk futures with blue lights and noir themes. And thanks to kindles, video games, and all the streaming services, I can enjoy both at any given moment from the comfort of my couch. Though I may…
