There's no way around it: Twitter has a tendency to feel like a Speaker's Corner on meth or maybe Adderall or Vyvanse. There are just so many inane thoughts being boldly flung into the Twitterverse at any given moment. The political rants, the TMI moments from oversharing individuals, the banal stories from bad or annoying mothers. That said, the app can actually be delightful when you manage to block out the Twitter slush and enjoy the rare comedic gems. It's taken us many years to block the a…

Dark humor at its finest

It's true that everyone needs to eat to survive. But, as many have noted before us, there are people who eat to live, and then there are the people who live to eat. People like me. In recent years it seems as though a third kind of person has popped up: someone who eats - or cooks - to watch the world burn. You see, these sorts of people are the ones making cringey food , well, a thing. Before the age of TikTok or Reddit, crimes against food were largely private. Now they're everywhere, being m…

Greetings, fellow travelers of both the Internet and Middle-earth! We're back with another hefty collection of Lord of the Rings memes , brought to you by a true fan of both J.R.R. Tolkien's legendary masterpieces and Peter Jackson's epic film adaptations, and a fan of memes. Prepare to embark on an adventure as timeless as the journey of Frodo and the Fellowship, as we explore the Internet's darkest caverns, hunting for, well, the dumbest and funniest Lord of the Rings memes that they have to…

One of the first things I learned about in film studies, after Eadweard Muybridge's The Horse in Motion, and the works of the Lumiere brothers, was the Hollywood Studio System. While it was technically the creation of Jewish immigrants, which sounds progressive, it was, in fact, a very toxic empire and way of conducting business. The demands placed on actors were brutal, especially concerning body image. Despite the toxicity, my fascination with the era remains, and I was delighted this week to…

Tee hee

Happy Monday, internet users and abusers. Twitter has always been a bit of a sh*tshow, to say the least, but since Elon Musk has gotten his corny mitts on the app, things only seem to be getting worse. Instead of seeing delightfully funny tidbits from Internet strangers, we're seeing a whole lot of garbage on our “For You” feeds. But has that dissuaded us from patching together a fabulous quilt of fresh and stupidly funny tweets for your scrolling pleasure? Hell no.

Values are important to us here at Memebase. This means that when we say that we strongly believe that everyone should have the opportunity to mindlessly engage in unproductive activities from time to time, we mean it – without exception. In our humble opinions, it is our collective right as human beings to reject the monotony of our daily routines whenever possible. Whether it means switching on the TV during a long and tedious conference call, ignoring a demanding message from an unsympatheti…

Selfies of the soul

Happy Orthodox Easter to those of you who are observing today. Many of you may have celebrated Easter l ast weekend (or perhaps were busy with Passover or Ramadan) and might be wondering why people celebrate the holiday a week late, so let's discuss what Orthodox Easter is all about. It's the holiest and most egg-citing holiday in the Orthodox Christian calendar, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Although it's pretty similar to Western Easter, it's kinda like the relative or friend…

Remember when Tumblr used to be filled with adult content? Yeah, we remember too. While we don't really care that it's changed, the Internet seems to have become a little less spicy and sexy overall. We don't necessarily want to see graphic gifs or unexpected photos of private parts, but things do seem a lot more boring nowadays on the mainstream zones of social media. The reason for this is that Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Google are cracking down hard on adult content - or even content t…

What up, nerds? We're back with another collection of Star Wars prequel (and sequel?) memes ! If you're a fan of the franchise, you've probably heard of the prequel trilogy and how it's become a bit of a meme sensation in recent years. And honestly, as a lifelong Star Wars fan (I even played Yoda Stories), I'm all for it. While it's true that the prequel trilogy has its fair share of critics, there's something about the corny dialogue, over-the-top action, and incredibly meme-worthy moments tha…

Have you ever considered the immense volume of tweets, memes, and other internet content that are flying around the world wide web at any given moment? The number of memes circulating is undoubtedly overwhelming, with countless image macros being shared between friends and even foes, reaching the screens of weary web surfers like yourselves. The range of memes available is also impressive, but it seems like relatable memes and amusing references to adorable animals are particularly popular. If…

You know those “deep thoughts” circulating Facebook in crappy template format? The ones that are probably being shared by your drunk aunt or that completely unsubtle girl who is always going through something? Well, it's time they got a bit of a refresh. It seems like it's the most banal sentiments and relatable quips that get emblazoned on t-shirts, or even made into a neon sign for some

We meet again, Trekkies and …non-Trekkies, the latter of whom probably won't enjoy this batch of memes. We're back to celebrate one of our favorite series, and we are definitely not holding back in the meme department. Like we have discussed in our other Star Trek meme collection s , there's a lot for us fans to be excited about. But unfortunately, we need to wait. Which is pretty hard to do these days, given how much we enjoyed Strange New Worlds and especially since Star Trek: Discovery's sea…
