Netflix released a special episode of Black Mirror just after Christmas and people can't stop talking about it. The full-length film is an interactive, "choose your own adventure" experience with five possible endings and over a trillion possible permutations of the narrative. If the options are sound overwhelming you're not alone. Being in control of a character can become intense - and viewers have started to meme about the agony and the power of controlling the life of the young programmer Stefan. The memes are fantastic, but please be aware that SPOILERS lie ahead.

Let's pour one out for the King of Wholesome: Bob Ross! 

The world is grieving after Nickelodeon confirmed today that Spongebob Squarepants creator Stephen Hillenburg has passed away at the age of 57. Hillenburg had been quietly battling ALS and is survived by his wife and son. The Rocko's Modern Life dreamed up Spongebob 20 years ago, and was shocked by the program's wild and global success. Spongebob Squarepants has been dubbed in over 60 languages, and its status as a cult show is very evident in the loud grief fans are showing on the internet. It's truly a sad day for everyone, from Spongebob fans to meme creators. Our hearts go out to Hillenburg's friends and family today.

We already loved 'Antiques Roadshow' but these photoshopped parodies of their appraisals are just a tad more funny. Evil genius Keaton Patti has been churning out these masterpieces since 2016 - here are some of our favorites.

All hail NBC for saving Brooklyn Nine Nine! While we wait for the police comedy's sixth season, let's enjoy this solid dump of funny moments from our favorite precinct of misfits.

We can't see a lot of this stuff flying over here in the United States, but we're definitely enjoying it vicariously!

Our favorite character from Parks and Rec served up some seriously dark and sardonic wit - and surprisingly warmed our hearts on several occasions. Here are some of our all-time favorite April moments.

Meme the boredom away.

The hit Netflix series Stranger Things is returning October 27th for its second season, and the promotional posters are incredible. Each one is a shout-out to an 80's horror film, which fits with the series' time period (1983.) A few of the films were actually released just before/after the eighties, but we'll let it slide because the art is so damn good. Here are the posters for the series as well as the posters of the films they pay homage to.

Some stars are filmed sleeping (Chrissy Teigen) or making funny faces (Winona Ryder) at awards ceremonies. Chance the Rapper happened to be caught in a far more positive light at the 2017 BET Awards. The television network's Humanitarian Award winner looks positively touched - and his sweet expression has inspired quite a few wholesome memes. 

Do you still jump at the opportunity to say "That's what she said"? This one is for you.

A genius, misunderstood.
