When we think of wholesome, happy-tears internet, 4chan is usually the last website on our mind. The image-based messageboard is a hotbed of web savagery at its most despicable - 99% of the time. The subreddit r/Wholesome4chan sheds light on the brighter, sappier side of the inflammatory site. We hope you've got tissues on hand.

It's easy to make jokes about where you end up after an art degree, and these artful whiteboard masterpieces could be one such punchline. Imgur user ShaneArgshared his former colleague's hand-drawn memes with the internet and we have to say we're impressed. We don't know what this mysterious artist is up to now, but we hope he's doodling somewhere a little more luxe. 

The U.S. is pretty well known for its bastardization of other cuisines. We gobble down crab rangoon, California rolls and rainbow bagels with sheer delight. The debate over whether or not pineapples belong on pizza exists solely because some demented genius decided to place the fruit on a classic Italian dish. We see the backlash all over social media. so it should come as no surprise that there's an entire Twitter account dedicated to the infuriated Italians eager to reject these crimes against their cuisine. 

Italians Mad At Food is basically an aggregator of enraged Italian commenters bemoaning the culinary abilities of anyone who, well, isn't Italian. The comments are hilarious, lofty, and oftentimes hard to decipher - which arguably makes them even funnier. While we do believe an apology is in order for Olive Garden and Chef Boyardee, the existence of this Twitter account and its heated comments has left us grateful for our criminal takes on Italian cuisine.

Okay, it is 4/20 but we should all be enjoying food (and food memes) 365 days a year.
