Welcome to the world, little dude! The royal family announced the birth of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's son, whom they gave quite an unusual name: Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, to be precise. Quite a mouthful, eh?
While the name itself was already a prime target of jokes, Twitter went off after Daily Express tweeted that the couple had chosen "UNUSUAL name for baby that UNIFIES the US and UK." Bizarre choice of headline, as you'll be able to see down below!
We're not here to get all political with you all, but we couldn't pass up the opportunity to share these hilarious parody tweets. The roasts started when Philip Klein of the Washington Examiner tweeted, "New post: Elizabeth Warren's plan to cancel student loan debt would be a slap in the face to all those who struggled to pay off their loans." We're lazy, so we're not going to go into more detail, but you can read about it here.
As you can probably see, this line of thinking is a bit flawed, so accordingly, Twitter users had a field day with it!
Confession: We might like this Minecraft themed parody of Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" more than the original and its viral remix. Don't tell Billy Ray Cyrus.
You're all probably well aware of the monumental fire that scorched the historic Notre Dame cathedral in Paris on Monday. Clearly this was a terrible tragedy and the aftermath of it will likely take years to fully restore. That of course hasn't stopped ruthless memers everywhere from doing what they do best...
Most recently, people have been making fun of a viral tweet by Kaylee Crain, who tweeted a photo of an unscathed cross and altar in the cathedral aftermath, challenging those who still do not believe in God to justify themselves. People have been pointing out to Ms. Crain that the cross is made out of metal, which has a higher melting point than wood.
Have these toasty memes and tweets gone too far? We'll let you be the judge of that because we're just here to witness the dumpster fire (sorry, too soon, we know).
It's getting pretty hard at this point not to roast JK Rowling for the hilarious and absurd things that she's been "revealing" about the Harry Potter franchise. 9GAG asked people on Twitter to type in "JK Rowling reveals that you" and let their phone auto-populate the rest until it turns into a full sentence. The results have been both hilarious and nonsensical!
JK Rowling, the queen of drawing out random details of the Harry Potter franchise, is back in the limelight for, well...drawing out random details of the Harry Potter franchise - details that absolutely no one asked for, of course.
She told Radio Times last week that Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald had an "intense and passionate" relationship that had a "sexual dimension to it." Of course, her actual statements got twisted in subsequent reports, but the roasts and parody tweets that have come from it are absolutely still valid!
Keaton Patti, the mastermind behind the "bot-written Olive Garden ad" is back with a mockery of indulgently bougie perfume commercials. The imagery is perfect, and honestly, perfectly hilarious. We can't wait to see what this genius brings us next - by way of bot, of course.
A delicious rush of focus!
"Me on Ellen" tweets imagine a sarcastic surprise being brought out on the Ellen DeGeneres show that people on Twitter are using to convey their greatest wishes. Are these tweets a cry for help? We don't know, but they certainly do play on the hilariously depressing tropes of the Millennial generation!
Is Ariana Grande officially 2019's most meme'd celebrity? Honestly, we're thinking yes. Her latest studio album Thank U, Next has produced several bangers that we're lowkey obsessed with, including "Thank U, Next" and "7 Rings." Her latest single, "Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored" has been gaining attention for its parodies and surprise ending. Not to mention it's catchy as hell.
We fully recognize that Ariana's been through some bad sh*t over the past year, and we totally respect her for her bravery! That being said, have her latest singles been meme-able as heck? Hell yeah.
No matter your personal opinion of the show, Saturday Night Live has been a comedy staple in America for ages. Beginning in 1975 with Chevy Chase as the original news anchor, the Weekend Update is the show's longest-running segment, and is even said to be the birth place of the satirical news sketch for the likes of the Colbert Report and The Daily Show.
Sigh. Here we go again. When will those useless, lazy Millennials understand that they're literally ruining everything good in the world? It's looking pretty hopeless at this point, honestly.
