We've seen our fair share of Thomas the Tank Engine memes on Reddit and beyond, but we've been surprised to see that they're seeing a moment of major popularity. Thomas' face is kind of the stuff of nightmares, which may have something to do with its popularity when describing crap that pisses us off or makes us remotely unhappy. Some of these memes may seem a bit weak, but we're firm believers in not having to think every time we look at a meme. So these just work.

Girls vs Boys memes have been incredibly popular on the r/dankmemes subreddit this year, and we're somewhat pleased to announce there's a new format in town. This trending meme riffs on how girls use photoshop (to make themselves look hotter) compares with how boys use the image editing program (to make dumb sh*t like make memes.) The memes are a bit of a meta self-own for meme-makers, which makes this particular iteration of the Girls vs Boys format that much more hysterical. We've put together a few of our favorites, but we're sure there will be lots more popping up on Reddit over the next few days.

Keanu fans can rejoice! Now in addition to Bill and Ted 3, we also get a fourth Matrix installment with Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss and Lana Wachowski all set to return.

While tons of people on Twitter are clearly stoked about the announcement, others are skeptical that another installment will be any good, which makes sense given how The Matrix 2 and 3 turned out... 

Anyway, you can make your own call on that when the movie is released in coming years, but in the mean time please enjoy some of the following Twitter reactions and memes!

We have some important news for anyone who just woke up from a coma: Keanu Reeves is the world's newest wholesome hero, joining the golden ranks of Bob Ross, Steve Irwin, and Stefán Karl Stefánsson. This adorable story from James Dator changes absolutely none of that. Keanu keeps proving himself to be worth our affection and we are so ready to keep giving it to him. 

While the nation mourns the lives lost in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio, politicians and the media continue to find ways to insist that guns don't kill people, video games do. President Trump jumped on the bandwagon during his national address yesterday, condemning the "glorification of violence in our society. This includes the gruesome and grisly video games that are now commonplace." The sentiment is frankly outrageous, and has zero evidence to back it. The inevitable backlash began on Twitter, with the #VideoGamesAreNotToBlame hashtag, and quickly grew to include memers in the r/dankmemes community. As of yesterday, the informative memes (some include graphs) have been hovering at the top of the page. Here are our favorites. 

This "Dad and the dog" dank meme combines two of our favorite things: dads and doggos. The meme exploits the idea that dads are truly marshmallows under their tough exteriors. The first instance of the meme featured Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson with a cute dog, paired with a joke about a dad's hesitance about getting a dog, and his eventual love for the damn critter. The memes have been popping off since early this week, and it's easy to see why. 

Whether you haven't been able to get your group together, or you just can't stop thinking about D&D, these memes will provide you with some wonderfully relatable scrolling. If you need more, you can always hit up some more of our Dungeons & Dragons lists here and here.

Strap in folks, because we're about to embark on quite a wild ride! We've already brought you some of the best memes and reactions that we've seen so far from the "Area 51" craze, but get ready for the previously untold saga of the storm on Area 51. It's pretty damn clear at this point that this sh*t ain't going anywhere for a while. 

If you're real confused by this whole trend, then don't worry, we've got you covered.

The search for serotonin and/or dopamine often feels as thought it is in vain. We search for love, we turn to vices, maybe even droppers of CBD oil. When all of this amounts to naught, at least we have memes.

One of the latest meme trends to pop up on Reddit has taken the form of a "time traveler conversation," in which a shadowy figure comes from the future and drops some serious future wisdom on an unsuspecting character - generally to very positive reception. The meme has been meshing well with Area 51 memes, as well as old classics like Shrek and Keanu Reeves. Here are some of our favorite examples of the perception-bending formats.

Tired of your friends sending you the same old, boring, and tired memes? These memes are from the memer who feels they have seen it all - freshly harvested and carefully culled from the depths ofr/dankmemes. Because you're worth it.

What do we want? Memes. When do we want them? All the damn time. To satisfy your deepest, darkest meme cravings, we've put together this assortment of fresh memes, bad jokes, and funny tweets. So you can get all of that fun in one place.

Keanu Reeves is on everyone's mind. The actor, of Matrix and John Wick fame, has joined the ranks of Steve Irwin and Robby Rotten as a wholesome hero of sorts, and is getting meme'd as such. It was only a matter of time before somebody went full Disney with this trend, and we can thank Buzzfeed's Crystal Ro for being the first brave soul to combine the two. Her illustrations subbing Keanu for classic Disney princes are pretty immaculate, and while seemingly unnecessary, endlessly entertaining. We've thrown in a few of these masterpieces, but be sure to visit Buzzfeed to see the rest of these brilliant mashups. 

Congratulations, y'all! You've officially made it through hump day, and the week should get easier from here. As an intellectual reward for your tireless toiling, we've put together this super-sized gallery of relatively fresh and hilarious dank memes.
