I do this with YT and podcasts. Be it me doing chores or waiting to fall asleep.
Memes can be considered a type of folklore. In the case of the times we live in, it’s digital folklore. They’re a way to tap into the collective conscience of humanity as a whole. Some memes, just like humor itself, can transcend cultural and even language barriers. Sometimes, a simple image of a relatable situation or a cute or derpy animal is enough to connect people from very different backgrounds.

American taxes are just plain dumb. You pay taxes all year. You file in April (for reasons only known to the ancient ones), and you either pay or get a refund. Why do we have to do our taxes ourselves? Just send me a bill/check.
As BBC Future points out, memes aren’t just about light entertainment—even though that’s what many people think of when they hear the word. Memes are a form of communication and a language in themselves. In short, they’re visual content that can connect people, help folks express themselves, and even promote or undermine social or political causes.

Being a lefty is weird sometimes, I use different hands for different tasks. Having grown up using “right-handed” utensils, I had to adapt a lot, sometimes I'll use right-handed gadgets backwards, or I just learned to use them with my right hand. As a lefty, I cannot use a pair of scissors with my left hand (and yes, I have tried using left-handed scissors, but I just can't)

We had a snow day yesterday, and my son (15) totally made me feel great when he woke up and was like, "I love staying at home with you, Mom!" We sat around and played games all day, tried using puff pastry for the first time, and ate leftover soup for dinner (no cooking!). I'm glad he appreciates being at home.

I'm a child, and I'd rather stay home than go out. (Unless I'm getting punk-rock CDs!)

I am 62, and have always hated naps, except when pregnant or really sick,, like mono, flu, covid. Maybe I am delusional, , but needing a nap during a regular day, or day out with friends is old person stuff, like the "I don't eat meat at night" thing. It just smacks of acting old before your time for me I guess I am being a grumpy old person just for saying this.

How strongly a meme resonates with us depends on how relatable we find it. Memes about topics that affect many of us (work issues, food, raising pets, parenting, mental health, etc.) are going to have a stronger impact than images about niche interests or opinions. The more relatable we find a meme, the more likely we are to share it with our social circle. And then, the image goes viral.

What I thought was going to be a ten minute application before heading off to bed had me nope-ing out 30mins later on step three when they wanted a video telling why I wanted to work there, bye.

The victim's family: "We are devastated by her murder. We get why she was killed, but still devastating. We are actually surprised it didn't happen sooner, but still sad"
One study from 2013 found that internet content that sparks a strong emotional response makes it more likely to be shared. The stronger the emotions, the greater the likelihood of the content being shared and reshared. However, the types of emotions do matter. For example, folks have a greater intent to spread humorous content than something that is cute, disgusting, or induces anger.

According to clinical psychologist Dr. Kanan Khatau Chikha, people need love, self-esteem, and security. She told Vice that it’s because of human beings’ need to belong that they relate to memes so much. In short, memes create a sense of identification that makes us feel like we’re part of a bigger social group.

I'm trying to think of the craziest co-worker I ever had now. I did work with the guy who really really liked guns. And he kept going on about how much he wanted to shoot people. We had to let him go.

However, relatability and wittiness might not be enough for your meme to get noticed. The fact of the matter is that every single day, internet users are bombarded by an unending stream of entertainment and information in their social media feeds. So, you need to find a way to stand out from the crowd with your content.

You think that's bad, when I turn my neck it sounds like glass in a garbage disposal!
Standing out can mean different things for different creators. It might mean putting a lot of additional effort into the visual aspects of the memes. For example, you could use high(er)-quality photos. Or you could switch up the color palette and format a bit so that you’re not doing exactly the same thing as all the other giant accounts.

Our toilet has motion sensor lights. They turn off after 12 minutes. It is awkward if someone comes in and you are in a stall with the lights off...
Then, you have to consider how you’re using the text portion of your memes. If all the comedy is in the photo itself, you might want to keep the comments to a minimum. However, if you feel like a comment is going to elevate the humor, then by all means, put it in the spotlight. Just make sure that you’re using an easily readable font. And don’t go overboard with the length of the text: few people have the focus and attention span to read a wall of text. If they see it, they’re likely to keep scrolling.

I literally created an account just to comment on this. This is a classic case of “you don’t know until you know.” Parents aren’t leaving the office “anytime they want” lol. Small kids literally get a fever for everything. Like, you look at them funny, fever! They ran too fast? Fever! Schools don’t let kids with fevers attend class. I’ve personally used all my sick days at work for a given year on my kids for random fevers, tummy aches, etc etc and I personally was so thankful for those colleagues who had my back (like the one whose single mom had good colleagues when she was a kid and was paying it forward).
We’d like to hear your thoughts about the ‘Circle of Idiots’ memes, Pandas. Which of the pics that we’ve featured did you enjoy the most? Which ones made you laugh the hardest? What kinds of memes do you typically share the most often with your friends or coworkers? Feel free to tell us all about it in the comments!

I'm surprised his date stuck around. It's such a weird thing to argue about that he's probably like that in general.

Not if you go to sleep at 3am everyday to avoid that feeling. Then you get to be tired and sad 👍.

Exactly how I feel when I hear either of my adult daughters ring tone. I just say a little prayer and bite the bullet and answer. I now know how my mother felt when I called her.

My boyfriend (who is awake long before me) gets upset that I am grumbly and incoherent when I first wake up. He says “you don’t even say good morning to me!” like bro I can’t even form WORDS when I first wake up. I do not wake up well or quickly and I do not want to be touched or talked to for at least a few minutes. But apparently I have to say “good morning!” coherently AND sound like I actually am happy to be awake.
