Tiger King and murder hornets and coronavirus, oh my! Those things are bad enough, but that's not even half the sh*t that's happened in 2020 so far. We can't wait to see what other horrible things will happen in the second half of the year (that's sarcasm, obviously). Now Click here for even more 2020 content!

It's nice to see that most people around the world are complying to Covid-19 lockdowns and quarantines. It's incredibly important for us all to work together to prevent the spread and flatten the curve. But wow. This is probably the most bored many of you have ever been. And while boredom for a good cause is better than the usual tedium, we are getting pretty tired of it. But at least, as these memes show, we're far from alone in this plight. We hope relatable lockdown memes can bring you feelings of solidarity. Hang in there.

While Tiger King mania seems to have died down a bit since its March release, people have been dying to snag an interview with the show's oft-maligned "villain," Carole Baskin. The controversial character (and nemesis of Joe Exotic) resents the way the Netflix documentary seems to insinuate that she murdered her ex-husband and fed him to her big cats. She's been largely silent in the media - until comedian pranksters Josh Pieters and Archie Manners managed to convince her that Jimmy Fallon wanted to do an interview with absolutely no mention of Tiger King. Using recordings from previous Fallon interviews, the duo managed to conduct the interview without a hitch. And it's pretty glorious.

If you're feeling hopelessly bored right now, you're definitely not alone. Hell, we're almost bored of collecting memes to share with you. Fortunately we're not quite there yet, so there are plenty of memes and tweets here to keep you entertained for at least a few minutes.
Pretty much everyone and their mom has seen Netflix's Tiger King at this point. Lord knows we've covered a lot of Joe Exotic-related memes. But for those of you who didn't know, before the show there was actually a podcast that some consider to be superior to the mini-series. The podcast was created and researched by Robert Moor, and after the show was released he started a Twitter thread that revealed tons of dirty details we didn't get in the docuseries. We've included the tweets here, but you can get more information on the thread. Prepare to be disturbed.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out what's popping off in the binge-watching sector of the internet. Since Netflix dropped their documentary miniseries Tiger King on March 20th, it's all anyone can talk about. Especially on Twitter. Turns out a flashy and pierced gay man with a fondness for tigers and a bitter feud beats all the crappy stuff going on in the world.
