However, there are only a few wellsprings of memes that keep things original and classy.

In today's digital era, where information travels at warp speed, and Apple's new luxurious VR goggles (only for $3500!) just beg to be made fun of, a curious cultural phenomenon has captured our collective imagination, transcending language, age, and class — funny memes and jokes for adults. These seemingly innocuous images, videos, or text snippets, infused with wit and humor, have woven their way into the very fabric of existence, not only online but in real life as well.
In a recent post, Adam Downer, the editor of “Know Your Meme,” explained to Bored Panda that “The best way for a meme to work is to have it be applicable to a wide array of situations, and it needs to be able to transcend its original context. Oftentimes, you'll see people clamoring over a 'new meme' that is really just jokes about one pop culture reference.”

I don't even get how that happens! Also, websites need to let me choose whatever password I want rather than their 14 requirements for the password, including a symbol, a chinese character and one of the spice girls...
The power of funny jokes and memes, then, lies in their versatility. They act as cultural mirrors, reflecting society's quirks, foibles, and prevailing trends. By poking fun at our collective obsessions, they offer a sense of camaraderie and validation.
Just think of all the times you have seen a memed-out Elon Musk (who appears not to mind it) or some clunky technology that was just begging to be made fun of. Surprisingly, we have come to a point when there's no point in counting just how many funny memes and jokes we are blessed with every day.

According to the BBC, the term “meme” was introduced by renowned evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in 1976. Drawing inspiration from the Greek word “mimeme” (which sounds a bit like Trump's brain-child “confefe”), Dawkins sought to elucidate the concept of discrete cultural units that replicate and spread among individuals, much like genes. In the act of linguistic creativity, he shortened "mimeme" to “meme,” which conveniently rhymed with “cream.” Dawkins proposed that these funny memes and jokes for adults encompassed melodies, ideas, catchphrases, or fragments of information that leap from one mind to another through imitation, facilitating their transmission.

Oh, yeah. And the hour or so before that when you're debating: if I get up and go to the bathroom will it wake me up more than staying in bed with the need to go?
Researchers at Meta, for example, showed just how fast funny memes and jokes on Instagram can spread and evolve. They found more than 121,000 different variants of one particular meme posted across more than 1 million status updates. Come to think of it, it's not so crazy to hear something like this in today's day and age. But we're talking about the age of “doge” and other classical memes that paved the way for a whole new appreciation of this internet phenomenon.
In essence, though, the fascination with funny jokes and memes can be attributed to their ability to entertain, connect, and provoke thought. Not only do they offer a form of cultural shorthand that binds us together, but they also offer a unique way for self-expression—something that is evident in the popularity of meme hubs like today‘s meme sponsor.

Once when we had a sunny day in England I laid in the garden reading a book all day - it felt like a 2 week holiday

I prefer mornings & early evenings. It's when I'm cooky-est(?🤷♀️). I annoy a lot of cranky morning people with my cheeriness. Totally their problem, lol.

I'm no morning person (except on vacation) but how dare I have a problem with you being one. I will however make the face above on the inside if you're singing

My husband gets up, goes in the bathroom and starts singing or whistling. I’m one who is a grouch. Drives me crazy.

By the time I was up at 7 or 8, my ex-father-in-law was on his 2nd or 3rd cup of coffee and would get mad if I was "sleepwalking" and not saying 'good morning'.

I don't get why people insist that everyone has to be wide eyed happy in the morning - Like i need a moment to adjust back to reality, try to remember the badass dream I had and contemplate the meaning of my life before i have any kind of conversation with anyone. Any encounter with me before that and you get what you get.

We should make this acceptable. Like, in Dutch, there’s a word that means: hang around, relax and do nothing, and that is an acceptable plan for your day ✨

Technically he was 4 years old when he applied for the job. As his mother was always the heir presumptive. When George VI died, he was immediately 1st in line.

Also: after 45 minutes you're still trying to appear supportive but you're actually compiling your grocery shopping list in your head.
