If you've ever felt disconcerted by the way technology/AI have interfered in our lives, you're not alone. Twitter account @internetofshit is basically dedicated to waking people up to the fact that tech is ruining our lives in the most capitalistic ways possible. Let's all find new ways to do necessary life things and charge people a premium for it. What the heck is the world coming to?

It's been a while since we covered an object labeling meme, and though this one isn't new, it's consistently popping up on our timelines - for good reason. It's a solid, simple, and versatile format, that has the ability to riff on real people and things that hold us up, or stuff that's a little more ridiculous, ironic, and self-deprecating. The fact that the whole meme is built on a corny illustration makes it all the more enjoyable. It's way more successful as a dank meme than its original purpose as a dramatic political statement. 

We're all familiar with the aphorism "Nice guys finish last." It seems that many self-proclaimed "nice guys" have contributed to a self-fulfilling dating prophecy by acting, well, the opposite of nice. These memes and pics embody just that kind of behavior.

Swedish grapbic designer Viktor Hertz has a real knack for making us feel bad about our tech addictions and spending habits. His creative, albeit slightly preachy "honest logos"hit us, and the brands they mock, where it hurts. Here's some of what we find to be his best work - you can view more of his awesome on his personal website.

The latest practice to garner fake awe from memers is the fairly universal practice of going up (or down) the stairs two at a time. The feat may have seemed impressive when we were kids with short legs, but somehow it's become one of our favorite new meme trends. While we may scoff at the seemingly weird flex, perhaps the world really would be a better place if that's all it took to hold society together.

Hating on stuff that people love is one of the oldest forms of meme-ing, and "The World If" memes are proof that it's still going strong. These memes, which depict a utopian, technologically advanced future, suggest that all would be right in the world if it weren't for that one little thing. While many seasoned memers are tiring of formats like this, it's still a fun way to poke fun at people and the world.

These seriously cringeworthy memes reek of neckbeard. The memes use Joker as a sort of gamer hero, and pair the villain with edgy text regarding being friendzoned by an elusive Veronica, or calling for gamers to "rise up." While we're hoping these are tongue-in-cheek trolling attempts, there's something so awfully believable about these images...
