Museums and art galleries can become an overwhelming experience for the casual visitor. Luckily, some people untangle centuries-old ideas and dumb-down them into language us mortals can understand, too. Previously, we covered museum museum snapchats; now it's time for something else - an array of hilarious art memes. After diving into this list, you might just feel as a highbrow art critic yourself.

Though memes and classical art is not a combination that we are used to seeing, some of the museums and galleries have recently allowed their visitors to take pictures and publish them in their social media profiles, thus making the art more accessible and visible to an ordinary human being. While Da Vinci might not have planned for his work to turn into a classical art meme, this way his and other classical artists work becomes more relatable to us.

Bored Panda has collected some of the funniest classical art memes that are impossible not to laugh at, and they will please your inner snob. From explaining what girls are up to when they go to the bathroom to proving some hustlers tried to sell Jesus merchandise at the crucifixion, these art history memes prove that nothing has changed in hundreds of years. Scroll down to check out how the hilarious list and vote for your favorite entries.

yeah I never got why you would ask the year first and then the month... First thing you want to know is what day it is, not what month or year.. Who came up with that idea ? Show yourself you monster

I present to you y/d/y/m/y/m/y/d format. For example may third 1987 is now 1/0/9/0/8/5/7/3

Scientific dating begins with the year, then month, then day. This way you can add time of day ie hour, minute.

"What? Who says "Today is the 15th of April, year of our Lord 2015"? Write it like you say it. MM/DD/YYYY (unless you're a psycho)" ... or the whole world, except US.

I was born in England (DD-MM-YYYY for the win guys) but moved to China and got married here and still suffer the confusion of it being YYYY-MM-DD
