It's well-documented that alcohol is not exactly good for you. Sure, there have been numerous studies that red wine is good for the heart, or that it's good for the brain, or “keeps you young.” But I don't take those studies seriously. As an enjoyer of alcohol, and a temporary abstainer, I know the damage that booze can have on one's mental health, physical health, and relationships. In my case, it's been difficult to go without a stiff reward for a long day, or a couple glasses of wine while s…

Nothing weird over here

There are a lot of things you have to gauge about a person on a date when you're meeting them for the first time. First of all, are they a murderer? This is a surprisingly difficult question from vibes alone, so in the meantime, you can move on to other important questions. “Am I attracted to them?” “Do we have anything in common?” “Does speaking to them make me want to gauge my eyes out with a metal spoon?” These are classic first-date reflection questions we all have asked ourselves at some p…

Listen. We like normal memes as much as the next person. What's a normal meme, you ask? Well, one example would have to be anything in the style of Twitter. You know, when the joke comes in the form of text above an image. Usually, these memes are a pretty lowest common denominator type of entertainment. Relatable as all hell. We're talking memes about how much we need coffee to get through the day. Maybe memes about how you feel like a useless piece of sh*t and are amounting to nothing. Or the…

If you're trying too hard while making a meme, you're probably doing it wrong. There's nothing more cringeworthy than trying to say something profound with an overused meme format. That's when you start to sound like an over-eager politician or a clueless brand that wants to sound hip and young. Memes don't have to be smart or say something deep to be successful, and if you're depending on memes to sound intelligent, you're definitely missing the mark. The memes of r/bonehurtingjuice reject ove…

We're firm believers in the fact that people shouldn't need to feel guilty about wanting to look at memes or mess around on their phones. Life is short and often thankless. We're worked to the bone and are granted tiny scraps of time. Scraps of time that end up being devoted to exhausted binge-watching or, even worse, our endless lists of chores. If you want to spend your lunch break scrolling through memes instead of trying to cram more banal work in (like I'm doing right now), go for it. We'r…

Happy April 20th, everybody! Today is a beautiful unofficial holiday when potheads and weedheads everywhere get to smoke even more than they usually do. I don't judge whether people smoke weed or don't smoke weed . It's a personal choice for everybody, but there's one specific type of non-smoker that has baffled me ever since I met one. There is a not insignificant amount of the population that has never smoked weed solely because they want to work for the FBI or the CIA one day. If you're thin…

What up, nerds? We're back with another collection of Star Wars prequel (and sequel?) memes ! If you're a fan of the franchise, you've probably heard of the prequel trilogy and how it's become a bit of a meme sensation in recent years. And honestly, as a lifelong Star Wars fan (I even played Yoda Stories), I'm all for it. While it's true that the prequel trilogy has its fair share of critics, there's something about the corny dialogue, over-the-top action, and incredibly meme-worthy moments tha…

Here we go again. Once more we find ourselves smack dab in the middle of the week, a day many people here in the United States refer to as “hump day." Though both the days of the week and their assigned dates may be arbitrary markers, the whole annoying plight of being alive certainly is not. This is why it's integral that we try to find ways to make the whole ordeal a bit more bearable. That's where we come in with the glorious things we call memes. There's not much in this world that brighten…

Here at Memebase, we can't help but admit that finding the absolute best memes out there can be like searching for a needle in a haystack. We're not saying we don't serve up some hilarious gems, but with so few witty and creative minds out there producing memes, it's tough to keep up. And don't even get us started on how hard it is to find people with good taste to share the good ones that already exist. But if we're being real, when it comes to memes, who needs perfection? We're all about mixi…

Wasting time is something of an art. If you've managed to master it, you're probably skilled at finding ways to pass the time with very little exertion of the mind or body. And hopefully, you're happy while doing it. Some people enjoy playin sudoku when they want to busy themselves. Others prefer to read a book dive down another weird YouTube hole of horror. Our preference? Well, obviously, it involves a whole lot of memes . And tweets. Really anything that is remotely funny. And we've got stuf…

As a thirty-something with no kids but a wealth of cats, I might complain, but I have it pretty easy. Despite the incessant vet bills, taking care of a cat is a lot easier and somehow a lot cheaper than raising a human child. A friend of mine shared an alarming statistic with her Instagram friends recently - the lifetime cost of raising a child here in the United States, as of 2022, is estimated at a whopping $272,049. That's a staggering number, one that makes me feel like I'm definitely never…

It really is true that variety is the spice of life. If you get too much of a good thing, life can get pretty damn boring pretty damn fast. It's like mom used to say: If every day was like Christmas (or your birthday) it would lose its charm. That can definitely apply to memes as well. If we start to see tons and tons of wholesome memes , it often makes us feel more contempt for humanity - which pretty much defeats the purpose of the wholesomeness. Similarly, when every meme in a gallery is of…

A lot of people come from the Cole Sprouse school of weirdness. That is to say, they claim they're weird without really being weird at all. If you're lost, let me introduce you to the second-greatest quote from the series Riverdale . “In case you haven't noticed, I'm weird. I'm a weirdo. I don't fit it, and I don't... wanna fit in. Have you ever seen me without this stupid hat on?” -Jughead Jones, played by Cole Sprouse Of course, the greatest quote Riverdale has to offer is the following: “I d…

Greetings fellow Monday haters and job despisers! If you're anything like me, then you're probably counting down the minutes until Friday, even though it's five days away. I mean, does anyone actually like waking up early, putting on work clothes, and spending eight hours a day doing something that sucks the ever-loving soul out of you? Well, fear not, internet explorers. Today I've compiled a collection of random memes that are sure to bring a bit of frivolous joy to your otherwise soul-suckin…

We've got a fresh hot list of memes for one Mr. Randy Om? Is there a Rand Om in the room? Randolph Om, are you present? Thank you, I'll be here all week. Coming up with clever and funny pun names is one of the few instances where I find the art of punning vaguely tolerable. My friends and I keep a list of different pun names we think of. They range from incredible to abominable: Collin Response, Jaqueline Turn, Miss Taken Identity, Patty O'Furniture, Heather Interior, and Cathy Lick. The list g…
