Warning: the following memes, while mostly having to do with Christianity, probably won't make anyone who is sensitive and religious very happy. They might be about going to church and biblical figures, but they're also here to call out hypocrisy (and Karens) at the same time. And we're more than okay with that.

As the days blend into one another and we continue this thankless, penniless existence, there seems to be very little that makes us smile or laugh. Even binge-watching has started to lose its escapist benefits. One exception to this absolute dreary drainage of entertainment has been memes. Through thick and thin, these funny posts and tweets give us some seriously needed instant gratification. We hope they do the same for you.
There are people who make the world a better place, and then there are the people who just want those people to suffer. Journalist David Leavitt falls into the latter category. The Massachusetts resident started an extremely huffy Twitter thread on Friday after a Target manager refused to honor a toothbrush that Leavitt thought was priced at one cent. Leavitt didn't realize the price was actually for the display and ended up calling the police and publicly shaming Target employee Tori Perotti.
Leavitt's thread didn't garner the kind of sympathy or outrage he expected. Where he wanted allies, people loudly supported Tori. The thread is full of angry replies, slamming Leavitt left and right - exposing Leavitt's other sins and praising Perotti's patience. Even controversial YouTuber Joey Salads expressed dismay at Leavitt's obnoxious and entitled thread. He's offered to pay Perotti's legal bills if she chooses to take action. But Perotti may not feel inclined. A GoFundMe that was created to send her on a much-needed vacation has already surpassed $30k. It's nice to see the good guys win.
It's been a fun day for Twitter games! This super-fun hashtag roundup pins some petty (and serious) annoyances to the kind of woman that bullies the manager at Walmart. The @RadsTags account is responsible for the game, which is blaming women named Karen for everything from putting raisins in potato salad to, well, Nickelback. What do YOU blame Karen for?
Aspiring lawyer Kim Kardashian opened herself up to some savage trolling today when contacting Jack In The Box regarding injustice she allegedly witnessed at one of the fast food chain's locations. The tweet reads "Hey, Jack In The Box I have a serious complaint but I won't fully put you on blast, check your corporate email inbox or send me a DM with direct person for my team to contact. Pronto!" and had Twitter users wondering what the hell happened to make Kanye's wife so upset.
Kardashian was quick to offer a disclaimer: "I would like to add that this is not about me or a wrong order. Nobody recognized me and it's something that I observed that affected other customers at this particular location that was concerning." Judging by this tweet, Kim's charitable nature extends beyond prison reform. Unfortunately, this didn't stop memers from roasting the crap out of the "self-made" celebrity. And by golly, the tweets were good. Now all we need to know is the tea behind this tweet. Fingers crossed it comes out sooner rather than later.
