Twitter has been on a lot of people's minds these days. And that's saying something because it's always on our minds. But that's probably because we have been completely poisoned by the world wide web. ANYWAY. The reason that people are talking about Twitter is none other than Elon Musk , who has been stirring up all kinds of controversy since taking over Ye Olde Birde App. The site has been turned upside down between the mass firings and rumors about changes the billionaire is planning on maki…

People take beer pretty seriously. Even the brokest of beer lovers are bound to have their own brand preference, and it's usually one they will fight to the death to defend. While many of these happen to be regional, there are some nationwide giants that people can't do without. There are also plenty of stereotypes about beer brands and what they say about the people who drink them. I, for one, know that if you're drinking a bougie and impeccably designed matte can of beer from a Brooklyn brewe…

As relatable memes go, these starter pack memes rarely disappoint. Everyone loves a relatable meme, and to be honest, we here at Memebase think starter pack memes deserve a little more respect from us than the usual " work sucks" tweet with an image. While starter packs aren't the quickest memes to make, they don't require coming up with a clever caption, the carefully selected pictures do the talking. Most of these memes avoid poking fun at people, instead, it's behaviors, situations, and trop…

At this point in time, we can't seem to keep track of all the subcultures, fads, and trendy health kicks people are getting into. But as worldly individuals, w are well aware that there are, in fact, people who refuse to wear shoes, even in public. People claim that barefoot living is just one way of living a green lifestyle and that it's better for your health. Some people go barefoot due to ailments such as diabetes, or gout. We're not sure where the dude we're about to discuss falls on the b…

Hey lawyers, are you okay? I think the answer, for many of you, is a resounding “no.” That whole trope of parents wanting us to be lawyers seems pretty messed up based on all the memes lawyers are making about how terrible - and terribly tiring - their lives are. After slaving away at school, it seems that you have a whole lot more work to look forward to, and because of that, a pretty oppressive schedule and a dubious quality of life. But then there's the whole paycheck thing. Based on these l…

For as long as I can remember, being a trash animal has been considered the adorable raccoon's game. The masked critters would creep around in the night, destroying giganting garbage bags of food, rifling through compost, and even waltzing into my Brooklyn apartment to hydrate from my poor cat's fountain. Once they just straight up started gobbling up her food. Until relatively recent years, raccoons left our other favorite trash critter, possums, in the proverbial dust. Possums are complicated…

I'm going to come out and say it: I'm a Scorpio. And it hasn't been easy. Scorpios are one of the most maligned signs of the zodiac . I think we are simply misunderstood. There's so much more to us than being jealous, or incredibly, mind-blowingly sexy. We contain multitudes. For example, we're really, really good at stalking people on the internet. We're also fiercely loyal people, willing to go the extra mile for our family and closest friends (of whom we may not have that many - Scorpios lov…

If variety is the spice of life, then memes are spicy as hell. Think about it. If it exists, there are memes about it. We've covered everything from knitting memes to forklift operator memes , and those two topics are the tiniest drop in a massive bucket (of memes). Memes are as varied as the people who make them, and if we start thinking about this on a global scale it's daunting. Hell, I've even seen fart kink memes, and I wish I hadn't. Fortunately for everyone looking at this little batch o…

Happy Tuesday, y'all. I don't know how to say this, but I've been feeling this major void. My Mondays working from home feel empty. I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread. It took me a little while to realize it wasn't just the stomach flu I'm afflicted with, but it finally dawned on me that I actually really miss watching The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. For all the sh*t I talked during its run, the show wasn't half bad. And the memes inspired by Ring…

I want you to think about something for a second. When was the last time you actually used a map? Like, really consulted it? We've all got them in our phones, but I'm talking physical maps . With the exception of a few hikes, I know I haven't gone the analog route. It's kind of surreal how dependent we've become on our phones and GPS. Maps are now a fun feature when we're looking for a delivery restaurant, or consulting a news article about the spread of Covid-19 or the war in Ukraine. Our favo…

It feels like one day we were going about our lives in early October, and Halloween was a distant event in our bleak futures. And then, suddenly, BAM! The entire internet was brimming with memes using the new-ish Spirit Halloween costume format. While people have been making this kind of parody meme since 2019, the format completely exploded this month - to the point where the company itself is in on the joke, and the #SpiritHallowmeme hashtag is now a thing. Spirit Halloween even tweeted a tem…

“Film Twitter” has been going strong for years now, and sometimes the threads and debates can get seriously tiring. While some people praise the CGI or plot of Marvel movies , others distance themselves from the big box office MCU movies in favor of films they think to be cooler. You know, like Uncut Gems. There's also the tendency to start threads where people hate on tropes or cinematographic styles. These threads happen again and again, and honestly, the hate starts to wear on an innocent mo…

There's something sexy about a person who is able to care for things. While many people would swoon over an individual responsible enough to care for a high-maintenance dog , or a slightly chiller cat, there are other beings that need tender love and affection to thrive. We're not talking about turtles, parakeets, or horses. We're talking about plants. As a city dweller, I'm not seeing many people walking their ferrets or pigs. And many of my peers aren't even permitted to have pets beyond fish…

We're all well aware that the Twitter hellscape has a lot to offer in the comedy department. Funny writers and aspiring humorists manage to craft short and sweet tweets packed with a whole lot of cleverness and publish them freely for netizens to enjoy. There's just one tiny problem: there is a whole lot of unpleasantry and even vitriol on the site as well. Political arguments, bad takes , and relentless trolls are ever-present. To save you from all that grossness and aggression, we've collecte…

Halloween is almost upon us, and as a thirty-something with low energy, I'm not as excited as I used to be. In the days of yore, I would get together with friends and start planning our costumes months in advance, down to our footwear. Whether or not we ended up looking good was another story, but my god - we were enthusiastic, and we were prepared. These days I'm left trying to find a two-hour window to fetch some facial hair from Spirit Halloween , and struggling to do so. It's a rough life.…
