Getting together with your family during the holidays can be extremely stressful. There's travel to worry about and food to make, but most crucially, there's the pressure and desire for everybody to get along. Some of us come from bloodlines that get into screaming matches over store-bought pumpkin pie. Others might be the product of a passive-aggressive lineage where your aunt implies a lot of shady stuff about you while watching the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade. There is one thing that can b…

I don't believe in the divine rights of kings, but I do believe in the divine rights of memes.

Frogs and Cranberries? It must be fall. Much like Mariah Carrey's All I Want For Christmas is You on the Billboard Top 100 Chart, this meme comes crawling back to us seasonally, and we can't get enough of it. But why? On a fundamental level, "Frogs and cranberries it must be fall" is just plain funny. Why must it be fall when these two collide, we non-frog experts ask. What about this amphibian and this fruit coming together marks the period between September 22nd and December 20th? The meme or…

When I was younger, I wondered if possums were Irish immigrants, dropping the "O" in opossum to Americanize their names. Unfortunately, that astute theory was untrue, as opossums originate in North America. Drat! Possums are not considered great pets; you don't need an animal scientist to figure it out. The best way to determine if an animal is suited to be a pet is to watch how your mom reacts to seeing one while driving in the car. Dog? Oh yeah, for sure, a pet. Horse? You better believe that…

Animals can be hilarious without even trying. From elephants attending the funerals of the people they've killed to ducks going to the pub , animals can get into absolutely absurd situations without anyone's help. Nobody knows how or why they got there, but you wish they could tell you about it. When I was a kid, I had a dog named Bear, one of the most intelligent animals I've ever met. One time, we left him in his crate at home, and when we returned, we couldn't believe what he did. Not only d…

You'd think it would be hard to find someone who doesn't enjoy animal memes . First of all, animals are better than humans. They just are. Second of all, most of them are pretty cute or, at the very least, cool. Like snakes and shit. Or whales and sharks. But there are some people (I'm not naming any names) who think animal memes are too fluffy. Too happy. Too sweet. Sure, some of them describe relatable plights like, uh, being tired, or feeling stupid. But for the most part, animal memes are l…

We sure do.

We're not so different from these fuzzy garbage-dwellers

If you're cold, they're cold. Bring them inside.

Nothing but love.

It's meme time

Possums and froggies and crabs, oh my!

Have at 'em!
