Congratulations on making it through another sucky week! It's Friday night, and hopefully some of y'all just got paid and can go out on the town and blow off some steam. For the rest of us, there's memes. And lots of them.
stupid
This meme has it all: the warm fuzzy feeling of nostalgia we get from The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, and a healthy dose of schadenfreude from these images of people who just can't seem to get it right. The meme uses a scene from the show, during which Cornflake, one of Will Smith's white classmates, starts chanting "Yes! Power to the people! Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud!" Smith applauds Cornflake's energy, saying "All right, my man Cornflake got the spirit. He's a little confused, but he's got the spirit." The last part of the quote is what's getting meme'd, and it's being used in response to missteps ranging from grade school errors, to extremely bad takes on vaccinations. Here are some of our favorites.
Picking a card for a loved one, whether it's for a joyous or somber occasion, is generally an activity of thoughtfulness. While there are some exceptions, most of these people seem to be lacking in the empathy department. The cards range from hilariously obviousmuck-ups to seemingly painstakingly purposeful pranks, but they're all worthy of a smile and maybe a chuckle.
If you've ever texted your ex at 3am or put off something important to the very last minute, 'Regretful Hulk' is a meme for you. So basically, this meme is for absolutely everyone. We may tell ourselves that we're maturing and making better choices, but there's a pretty high chance that we're going to make these mistakes again. And again. And again. Or at least until phones keep you from sending drunk and risky AF text messages.
Have you been down on yourself lately? Felt that maybe you're lacking in the intellect department, or not living up to your potential? This hilariously enlightening Reddit thread could be the ego boost you need. User Yurtle asked AskReddit perusers to share the most stupid questions they've even been asked - and the results convey stupidity of epic proportions.
Another thread had people sharing the strangest thing they've ever experienced, and even stranger was a thread where people shared the worst fanboy meltdowns they encountered. AskReddit continues to prove that we are truly a fascinating race.
These memes aren't for the intellectuals. These memes are for the tired, the weary. The downtrodden and nearly brain dead. These memes are for when you're too tired to go out, too tired to pay attention to the TV. These memes are for when you just need a little treat.
There are about a zillion wonderful benefits to legalizing marijuana: taxes that go to education, job creation, and thinning out our overcrowded prisons. Then there's the fun stuff. Twitter user @icexqueen asked her followers to share some hilariously high anecdotes and the thread made us laugh very hard for a Monday. We can only hope that as greens become more accessible we get more of these tear-inducing stories.
