Greetings, friends of Memebase. It's Tuesday, which means we've got just over three days left of our weekly suffering. It also happens to mean that, yet again, we are serving up a double-dose of largely stupid and moderately funny Lord of the Rings memes. We've searched the hallowed halls of Facebook, Reddit, and even Instagram, just to find the funniest and freshest LOTR memes available - just for you. This is no easy feat, as people have been prolific with making Lord of the Rings memes. I've…

“You employed the use of a double negative in the title of this article. It shows a command of the English language that is subpar at best and frightening at worst.” If some variation of that thought ran through your head when you read this headline, you're a regular Young Sheldon. Or you're adult Sheldon; knowing pedantic weirdos, you're probably an adult Sheldon. Young Sheldon is at least cute enough to find slightly bemusing, but regular old elder millennial Sheldon can be a real irritating…

There is a lot going on right now in the realm of fantasy television. This past Sunday, HBO debuted its Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon. It's been receiving good reviews - and enticed a whopping 10 million viewers during its premiere, making it HBO's largest premiere in history. Next on the roster? None other than The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. The show has inspired a lot of discourse, and obviously, a whole lot of memes. Both the shows include BIPOC actors, and a…

Welcome back to another exciting edition of Tolkien Tuesday . For those of you who are new, Tuesdays are when we (Memebase) provide you (whoever you are) with a selection of the best Lord of the Rings memes to have graced our feeds in the last week. The internet has been abuzz with LOTR news, and while there's plenty to be seen (and memed about), it's recently come to our attention that Peter Jackson almost got hypnosis to forget making our most beloved movies. Why? Because he wishes he could w…

As a nearly-constant internet user, I often wonder how much reading I do that's just on the internet. Sure, I might not read as much daily as I did when I was an English major, but these tweets and Tumblr posts have got to count for something, right? Allegedly, we read completely differently when using technology versus merely reading on paper. According to research, we skim more when reading online than in a paper book, even when reading e-books or PDFs of scanned book pages. I will admit that…

Happy Tuesday, Lord of the Rings fans. How's everyone coping with the heat wave? I, personally, am struggling. And not just with the fact that climate change seems realer than ever. I'm struggling because New York City has been feeling way more like Mordor than some bustling city in the beautiful Northeast. While my office's air conditioning isn't too shabby, I've mainly been coping with the pain with the helpof distractions. And what better way to distract ourselves than with Lord of the Rings…

Some memes are just better than others. There's a conspiracy theory amongst older generations that because millennials were given participation trophies, they feel like they are way better than they actually are. Boomers fail to realize that kids could, and still can, tell the difference between an award everyone got and one they earned. For instance, when I was in high school, I won the award “Most Likely To Fall Off Of The Risers” in choir class. I wish I could tell you that earning this most…

Wild that we've already made it halfway through the dreaded year 2022. That means we've looked at a whole lot of Lord of the Rings memes in search of the best (and dumbest) ones to share with you. The time has not been spent in vain, nor has it been spent grumbling, scowling, or unhappily. Instead, it's been spent chuckling like Beavis and/or Butthead, hunched over at my desk, making my poor colleagues wonder what is wrong with me. A lot of things, really. But seeking out great LOTR content is…

What up, y'all? We're back with another edition of Tolkien Tuesday , which I almost forgot to wriet because I have a small brain that doesn't adapt well to things like three day weekends and/or having time off for national holidays. That shiz messes my schedule up. Anyway. I didn't completely forget, so here we are now, ready to enjoy some incredibly stupid and moderately funny memes inspired by and using stills from the Lord of the Rings . While most LOTR memes we come across these days stick…

Not all websites are straightforward beacons of great content. With many forms of social media, whether Twitter , Tumblr, or Reddit , it sometimes feels like it takes years of feed curation to get to the good stuff. Who and what are you supposed to follow to find the good content on those platforms? I've found that following people with similar tastes but some notable quirks or personality traits you don't necessarily relate to is ideal. When I was on Tumblr as a kid, I followed a bunch of peop…

"People of the Internet! Of the world wide web! Of Reddit, of Facebook, of Discord , of Instagram ! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when men do not appreciate (or yearn for) Lord of the Rings memes, when sad souls on the web do not desire stupid, and accessible humor, when Lord of the Rings marathons lose their comfort and allure. But it is not this day. An hour of viruses, phishing, and responsibilities, when the Age of Internet Nerds comes cras…

Happy Tuesday to all the Lord of the Rings fans in the house. Hopefully those of you who are stateside and had a long weekend (Memorial Day) of fun. I know I did. Yesterday I got back from a trip north to Vermont, a state that has no shortage of untouched natural beauty. When I'm in the middle of a lush, bird-filled forest or trekking through a seemingly endless field, I can't help but imagine myself in Middle-earth. I may have even pressed my ear to the ground a la Legolas a couple times. Whil…

Happy Tuesday, Lord of the Rings fans. What are some of your first memories as a devotee of the books and movies? One memory that always gets me happened a long, long time ago - when I was in high school and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King was in theaters. My friends and I were so excited that we dressed up in our most fantasy-esque garb, had a nice mom buy us some wine, and went off to the Pavilion to sink into the possible bedbug-ridden seats and enjoy the show. Unfortunately, o…

Greetings, traveler. Happy Tuesday. I'm feeling pretty damn good this week. Why? Because this week, stupid celebrity drama has failed to infiltrate our precious weekly Lord of the Rings meme collection. It's been a rough few weeks in that regard. I know how much everyone hates having to stomach that Will Smith slap or Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard when they're just trying to enjoy some Lord of the Rings memes. It was pretty refreshing to scour Reddit, Facebook, and Instagram and not come across a…

Happy Tuesday, y'all. We're back with another massive collection of fresh Lord of the Rings memes , the perfect antidote to any of the ennui you've been feeling. They're also a great antidote to anger, which we're feeling a lot of these days. There's something in the air. Anyway. This week's batch may spare us from mention of the Met Gala , but you will find references to other viral happenings, such as the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard defamation trial, and Elon Musk buying Twitter . Thankfully,…

Happy Tuesday, nerds. We're back with another voluptuous batch of mostly-fresh Lord of the Rings memes . For those of you who are unfamiliar, every Tuesday we present a carefully curated collection of the very best LOTR-related memes to have graced our eyes over the span of the previous week. Some of them are clever. Some of them reference some deep material. But most of them are brilliantly stupid (and sometimes spicy) shitposts, which happens to be our preference. As you can see in this week'…
