I need to get something off my chest. You know all those viral TikToks where people take you through their adorable little morning routines? Well, I hate them. I really, really hate them. Who the hell gets up in the morning and actually thinks some sh*t like “Carpe Diem” as they apply their expensive skincare routine and drink a green smoothie? Well, I'm sure those people exist, but they're definitely RICH, and in no way reflect actual human beings. If I were to take you on a journey through my…

“What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.” If you're not familiar with Shakespeare, this quote is meant to assert that names (like Montague or Capulet) are actually irrelevant and that it's the nature of a person (or object) that truly matters.

And for my next trick, I'll be breaking my own heart by exaggerating my place in other people's lives

Curious

Not sure if it's just me, but life is feeling a little bad. The whole damn universe is feeling a little bad. And when things feel bad, it's to be expected that we might want to drop all our money on clothing and bric-a-brac we probably won't even like for more than a week. But don't feel too guilty. We're here to support you in the quest to fulfill your most frivol ous, time and money-wasting urges.

Help yourself

WikiHow certainly has its merits. If you're having some problems, it is almost guaranteed that some kind user has decided to try to help the world through those problems, by creating a step-by-step guide complete with some…interesting images. Trying to cope with crippling anxiety? They've got you covered. Dealing with depression? Yup. Need to ask a loved one for forgiveness? There's certainly something for that. Even someone looking to get into the subculture of emo h as an instruction manual t…

As I sit here on an Amtrak train to Providence, Rhode Island, I feel as though I am slowly losing my mind. And it's my own fault because I let my headphones die before a long trip. Now, with my ears fully open and exposed to the shudder-worthy sounds of reality, I am paying the price. To my left is a woman who appears to be from Long Island, furiously filing her nails as though we're in the bathroom adjacent to her gaudy master bedroom. She's been going at it for thirty minutes, with no signs o…

It seems like AI has totally blown up over the past six months. I remember when I first started working at Memebase, DALL-E AI-generated images were all the rage on Twitter. Personally, I thought those images were extremely cool because they could really accurately encompass the prompt. As time has gone on, AI art has become even more ubiquitous online, and it's gotten better and better. The hands for most pieces are still blurry, and they're nowhere near as sophisticated as some types of deep…

There are plenty of memes bouncing around the Internet that leave a person with zero questions. You know, painfully relatable work memes , anything hyper-topical or catering to a specific niche, parenting memes. We get it: Work sucks, bosses also suck, parenting leads to serious lack of sleep, we all know the deal. When the basicness of these memes (and cat memes, and dog memes) gets to be dull, or we actually want to stimulate our withering brains, we turn to history memes. While we're not his…
