Not everything has to be so positive all of the time. There are so many people out there who believe that having a positive attitude will literally cure all that is wrong with them, which is patently untrue. In fact, I would argue that desperately trying to be positive even when you're not in a good place does more harm than good. If you can't sit with the things that make you unhappy, then you'll never be able to confront and change them. On a less deep note, isn't it a little bit fun to be a…

Not to be corny, but I have an incredibly corny story about a high school teacher who always told us to “dominate the day.” He was my world history teacher and a football coach, usually a red flag. If you've never been to a school with incompetent coach teachers who were unnecessarily cruel to unathletic children, I'm guessing you're not from the South. This guy was not like that at all, and was really kind to all of the students. He was a super funny guy. I don't know of any other teacher that…

Like the prophecy foretold

“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…

The 90s and 2000s ushered in a golden age for adult cartoons on TV. With legendary shows like The Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy coming onto the scene, television audiences learned that cartoons weren't just for kids or 1970s adult movie theater audiences. These shows found fans with people of so many different demographics and pushed the boundaries of what cartoons could be. As the 2010s rolled in, Rick and Morty showed that the future of adult cartoons wasn't about repeating the success…

There are so many different kinds of memes in the world. As time has gone on, we tend to veer more and more absurd in our memes to the point where internet trends the past are virtually unrecognizable. Some of us also dabble in edgelord memes that may you may or may not want your mom or your boss to see you post. However, there’s one kind of meme that I believe will never die. And that of course, is the wholesome meme. Wholesome memes work for every age demographic. They’re great for people who…

Are you a good little lad who deserves a treat? Do you want a little cranberry tart to tide you over until suppertime? Are you going to huff and puff and groan and moan until you get it? Well, bad luck, son. There has been a treat shortage in Bethesda, Maryland, which is the town where we live. No, I'm afraid that even the most good little boys are not getting any Klondike bars today. No sirree. Instead, you've just got twenty-nine memes to take in. No need to cry! Memes are just as good as cre…

I don't know if this is said enough, so I'm just going to flat out say it; Being a programmer is a huge accomplishment. Sure, the general population praises those pursuing STEM fields during their high school and college years, but what about after they manifest their dreams of becoming programmers? Programmers and IT specialists work long, hard hours that it's difficult for the normies of the world to understand. You have to learn complex coding languages, stop and start over, all while never…

I don't believe in the divine rights of kings, but I do believe in the divine rights of memes.

There's been an epidemic sweeping the programming memes community. One meme has positively overtaken r/ProgrammerHumor to the point that it's nearly unuseable. I'm of course talking about, “what's stopping you from coding like this?”

This world is hard on silly memes . Memes filled with a joyous whimsy. Nothing in this world is harder than being a goofy and fun-loving meme. Actually, that's a lie. Though this world is hard on silly men (men filled with a joyous whimsy. Truly, nothing is hard than being a goofy and fun-loving man, ect) silly memes are actually quite common. Even memes that have a depressing edge are still rooted in humor. In some ways, making a hardcore meme is still inherently silly and goofy because you're…

Oh, the Kardashians.

We are staunchly in the summertime , which means there's no escape from the indomitable orb of the sun and the atmosphere's various strategies of humidifying. Remember, this isn't the hottest summer of your life; it's the coldest summer of the rest of your life. While summertime might be the seasonal favorite of many, I tend to prefer autumn. My favorite thing about September, October, and November is guessing what will be seasonally appropriate to wear. Every day is a different story, resultin…

You've all heard the stories of English speakers getting tattoos of phrases in languages they don't speak. They try to get something inspirational or beautiful tattooed on an extremely visible body part only to discover later that what their tattoo really said was either something random or humiliating. Either way, it was not what they asked for. Although this is still happening today, this trend in the tattoo world was huge in the 90s and 2000s and will never fully go away. Although this pheno…

Excellent...

Here we go again, back at it with another steaming hot plate of memes for your consumption. It must be so nice to have delicious memes provided to you every night without effort on your part. Some people in this world slave away, looking for memes far and wide to feel their ever-growing families. When I was a boy, I used to walk 20 miles uphill and back in the snow to get to school. What does that have to do with memes you might ask? Absolutely nothing, but I just wanted to rub it in that your…
