knitting

A meme is sort of like handmade knitwear—the original pattern was probably found online somewhere, but everyone puts their own little spin on the design to create something new. There's an endless supply of memes from forgotten origins about literally any given niche topic there is, including arts and crafts! If you're a creative type who loves a good quip, these memes seamlessly find the humor in craft life. 

Let's hear it for happy accidents. Twitter user Dan Sheehan ordered what he thought was a sweater à la Chris Evans in Knives Out, and instead received all the materials required to actually knit it himself. He took to the website to share the amusing anecdote, and his followers came through with loads of puns and jokes that turned this mistake into a hilarious Twitter thread that we're glad we didn't miss it. 

Behold, hipsters in their natural habitat! Mating season is upon us which means that the hipster must reach peak irony levels in order to attract a mate. This objective can be achieved by completing totally mundane tasks with the most gratuitous of gestures, or by offering potential suitors a slice of free-range vegan avocado toast. Let's scroll down to examine the specimens more closely.

Photographer Samantha Bishop is nothing if not a devoted daughter. When her mother requested a saucy photoshoot, Bishop just had to make her mother's wishes come true - even if her demands were that the shoot take place in a bathtub full of yarn. Both mother and daughter seem to have gotten very into the photoshoot. Mom hamming it up for the camera, daughter incorporating some hilarious details (Werther's, anyone??). The photos were a Christmas gift for Bishop's father. His reaction, which is at the end of the photo set, is absolutely priceless.
