It may not be October, but we're always down for some creepy content. That's why we were pretty stoked to learn about the subreddit /r/TwoSentenceHorror where people tell their spookiest stories in, yes, just two sentences. It lends itself to some unexpected creativity that we think you're gonna like.

While these AP Literature memes barely scratch the surface of the coursework, we think that there are a lot of students who will relate to the themes of these school memes.Many of the memes are references to works such as The Landlady and William Dean Howells' The Rise of Silas Lapham, but there are other memes here for those of you who managed to skim those assignments. Happy scrolling, and good luck with your course load. Yourcollege selfwill thank you.
It seems that after graduating and getting a job in media, reading has become something I shy away from. Which is a shame, because reading is Good For You and Makes You Smarter. While these memes,Tumblrposts, andtweets don't come close to being a novel, they've got enough words to exercise that rusty part of your brain.
These comics from Wrong Handsreally cater to the bookworms and lovers of literature. The artist, John Atkinson of Ottawa, Ontarios, has a real knack for poking fun at literary masters and readers alike. It's nice to see our love of the written word so beautifully wedded to amusing comics. If you like what you see, give Atkinson's feed a follow and check out his book.
There are times when the internet really surprises you with its out-of-the-blue creative genius. However, this is not one of those times. These poems are terrible, but who cares because this isn't your f*cking AP high school English class and no one needs to be analyzing the symbolism behind the blue curtains.
Hey nerds! Have you been sleeping on the incredible Twitter account @AwfulFantasy? It's as if The Onion started writing 280 character articles about science fiction and fantasy. As one can imagine, the passages range from devilishly clever to laugh-out-loud hilarious. We've put some of our favorites together here, but for more of their five years of content, go ahead and peruse their Twitter.
If you ever use Facebook and Twitter, we're willing to bet that you have been privy to this very popular Twitter meme. The subtly sassy snow clone lists a variety of comically specific traits before revealing that the subject is not, in fact, your man. It's generally someone as nerdy as James Joyce or as much of a manic orange abomination as Gritty. We're into it, and hope to see more weird and clever renditions.
