Everyone, and we mean everyone, deserves the luxury of simply screwing around every once in a while, In fact, we think the world has the collective right to give responsibility the finger when possible. To procrastinate and diddle daddle to one's heart's content. You know, to turn on the TV on while that boring conference call is dragging on forever and you're conveniently on mute. To ignore the too-late text from your hard-assed boss who lacks a modicum of empathy, or lie about why you can't s…

Close your eyes and take a deep breath . Be sure to breathe from your diaphragm slowly and intently. Count your breaths. Are there a lot? If so, you're doing this wrong. Tense up your body, but not too much. Now relax it. Are you feeling generally tense from me telling you what to do? If not, you're doing this right. If so, shut your piehole. Nobody cares about your opinion anyways. Try to let your thoughts float by. Do not meditate on them. Do not acknowledge their existence. They can smell yo…

Happy Star Trek Day everyone! You know how today is Star Trek day? Good thing nothing in the world has happened to take away from the glorious holiday celebrating everybody's favorite space franchise. There's no current event so major that it could completely alter the trajectory of September 8th 2022, rendering Star Trek day completely useless. Okay, I'll budge. the death of Queen Elizabeth II may or may not have thrown a wrench into the whole Star Trek Day thing. At least Star Trek isn't in i…

“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…

I know what you're probably thinking: “What? Memebase puts out so many lists of random memes every week? Are you sure that this is the absolute funniest?!”

Heads up: I'm a millennial. As a small child I used to play in the dirt, create morbid stories starring my American Girl Dolls, and play old Star Wars games on the family PC. Memes didn't exist, and I didn't have access to the internet. Many Boomers take pride in the fact that their means of entertainment were extremely analog when they were youths, but I don't. It's actually my belief that memes would have enriched my younger days. I mean, it's obvious that being exposed to memes as a kid woul…

As a wise Sprouse twin once said, "In case you haven’t noticed, I'm weird. I’m a weirdo. I don't fit in. And I don't want to fit in. Have you ever seen me without this stupid hat on? That's weird." That Riverdale character was right; his existence is weird. If you told 8-year-old me that my favorite characters from Archie comics would be turned into a gritty CW show, I would have said, “what is the CW?” Jughead Jones claiming that wearing a beanie makes him a social outcast in the year of our l…

Let's be honest: not all memes are for everyone. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but some memes contain layers of esoteric knowledge reserved for only the nerdiest among us. Being a nerd comes in so many different forms. Nerds can be straight-A students who have devoted their lives to exceeding academically. Nerds can also be pedantic fans of science fiction or fantasy franchises like Star Trek or Lord of The Rings. But y'all already knew that. Everyone is a nerd for something; We all have…

Let's be honest. You need a laugh; I need a laugh. We all need to laugh a little bit more. We can't keep rewatching the same three seasons of Strangers With Candy until we die to get the last few giggles out of our usually unamused husks of bodies. Laughter is a force of healing, and if we don't do it enough, we're going to shrivel up and die. There are only so many 22-minute comedies you can consume in one day, especially if you are a person of the employed persuasion. Those 22-minute comedies…

The ability to create an ambiance is an essential skill at this point. When everything seems to be falling apart around you, it's necessary to be at least able to listen to a curated playlist to make you feel like a calm human being with super stable emotions. That's why the Lo-fi Beats To Study and Relax To girl is such an inspiration to me. She is a hard worker who is unphased by the chaos, madness, and confusion of the world around her. She can study and relax simultaneously, and I deeply re…

It's been a good few years for fans of Star Trek who have been craving more content. While we didn't love Picard, and we do have some complaints about the plot and writing of Star Trek: Discovery , we are looking forward to seeing Anson Mount reprise his role as Christopher Pike in Strange New Worlds, and for Vampire Diaries ' Paul Wesley to join the show as Captain James Kirk in its second season. While we'll have to wait until the second season for our reintroduction to Captain Kirk, the firs…

There are so many and they're so accurate—trekkies know, if you're a true fan you gotta do more than just live, long, and prosper.

Live long and prosper

Hello again, Trekkies and …non-Trekkies, the latter of whom should probably click elsewhere. We're back to celebrate one of our favorite fictional series, and we're not holding back in the meme department. Like we discussed in last week's Star Trek meme collection , there's a lot for us fans to be excited for. It's just that we need to wait. Which is prsetty hard to do these days - especially since Star Trek: Discovery's season finale was such a terrible bust. To cleanse our palate of that disa…

The Star Trek universe is a very special one. Somehow, Gene Roddenberry created a world - and television shows - that have always felt impressively progressive in both characters and storyline. From the original series, to some of the more controversial and new offerings, the stories promote tolerance, curiosity, and peace. Which is impressive given the insane scope of the universe. It's incredible that despite all their different customs, cultures, and quirks, most of the species seem to get a…
