It's been so long since I've felt this way
At first the lonely wojak stood in the corner at a party, watching everyone have fun while thinking, 'I wish I was at home playing video games.' Well, the meme is back but he's no longer the introvert feeling regretful at a social gathering. Now he's quietly lamenting the fact that no one in the room knows that he's got a mildly notable internet following. Social environments are pretty different for this wojak IRL, and perhaps some very online people can relate.
Whoever revived this meme meant to reference the surreal nature of living two disparate social lives—the one where you ostentatiously post online and the normal, boring IRL one. Other memelords have taken off with the trend and subverted the meaning even further into absurdity, sometimes even combining it with other popular memes. We've selected some of the best 'they don't know X' memes for you to post to your mildly popular meme page.
It's really, really easy to come up with memes about "stuff that is bad" or "stuff that is good." This Wojak comic format is no exception. The meme features Trad Girl thanking someone or something for changing her life. The response generally indicates that it's dumb to give the hobby or interest that much credit. The meme focuses mainly on movies/tv, beloved characters, and music - and there's lots to be roasted. While some of the examples are definitely laughable (ahem, Folklore), we do think it's important to let people have their fun in 2020. There's not much of it to be had.

Ever take a step back from your life and wonder if you're just doing it wrong? It's easy to feel that way when you compare yourself to your parents. Many of us deal with these feelings, especially if we've surpassed the age at which our creators decided they were ready to bring life into this godforsaken world. A new Wojak comic meme completely excels at utilizing this theme, and the results are our favorite kind of self-deprecating humor. The meme basically compares what our parents were doing (making commitments, investing in the future) with what we're doing at that age. The punchline is that in 2020, we're doing shit that's way less mature. You know, making mistakes like eating pills of the ground or infantilizing ourselves with phrases like "I'm baby." While some of these memes hit home pretty hard, a couple of them are great reminders that progress is possible. It's also important to remembe that the world was a different place when our parents were our age. It's always better to focus on one's self and the possibilities we do have.
We know the whole Girls vs. Boys trend in a lot of Reddit memes has gotten a bit tired. But this trending format about how the sexes would approach time machines has breathed some life into the slightly sexist memes. Fortunately, the memes are so good we can't get too mad. We've put a bunch here for your consideration, but as the meme goes deeper into Wojak comic territory, we'll probably start seeing a lot more. And we're happily awaiting them.
Behold, potentially the most layered, convoluted meme that we've seen so far in 2020. The meme, known more collectively as "Wojak Comics," features various well-known shitpost-y characters including Wojak, Doomer Girl, and Yes Chad. Head on over to Know Your Meme for a far better explanation, because honestly this meme is just that ridiculous.
Back in 2018 we started seeing dank memes featuring a version of Wojak who was later given the name "Doomer." The character is a depressed 23 year old chain smoker with a decidedly dark view of life. Earlier this week we started to see a resurgence of these Doomer memes featuring a new face - a goth girl sporting an edgy choker and rosy cheeks. These "Doomer Girl" or "Doomerette" memes started popping up everywhere, even on some pretty basic Instagram accounts. The jokes range range from gaming to painfully ironic anti-memes. And they're all pretty good.
