Once upon a time, in the distant past (that is, about twenty years ago), the internet had many options for netizens who wanted to laugh heartily and generally have fun. Various amusing pictures, jokes, stories, short videos - today, all these and much more have been swallowed up, like an avalanche, by memes.

You can find collections of memes for literally any taste - about kids and parents, about animals and celebrities... there is even a whole collection of gorgeous Shrek-related memes. And today we present to your attention yet another dedicated Instagram page about memes, PotTV. And, of course, a selection of the most thoughtful and funny memes from this account.

More info: Instagram

What is interesting about this page is that it contains memes not just for laughing out loud at pictures. Most of these memes are text, are non-standard and interesting quotes from X, which really make you think twice. And some are even very wholesome in everyday life.

For example, the very idea of ​​gamifying your daily chores looks absolutely brilliant to me! No, seriously - I'll finish this post and go wipe the floors to get more XP... And why not, after all?

At my age, my mum had two teenagers. I don't even have a boyfriend. And I'm keeping it that way.

You may ask - so what's wrong with that, are these not original memes? On the other hand, almost any meme author actually uses a template: a screenshot from a movie or TV series, some famous quote and whatnot. By and large, a meme is the ability to look at something already known under a different angle, to find something funny in it - and to expose it to others. And this is, well, this can be a true art.

I hate to break it to you but the same thing will happen in your 30's, 40's and probably beyond. I'm going to live my whole life convinced that people 10 years older than me are the 'real' grown ups.

"Memes in their original understanding were just a unit of information. Another thing is that before the advent of the widely available internet, such functionality of memes was simply unavailable," says Valery Bolgan, the historian and editor-in-chief of the Intent news agency from Ukraine, with whom Bored Panda got in touch for a comment here.

"In fact, any work of art can also be considered a meme. For example, what is the difference between ‘Woman and Cat’ and ‘Mona Lisa’? In terms of popularity - absolutely nothing. Of course, making a brilliant painting is way more difficult, but the modern world is moving towards simplification."

"Or let’s take, for example, quotes or aphorisms from famous writers or political figures of the past? Some of them understood the importance of quotes for their own image, and specially ‘generated’ impressive phrases."

"For example, Napoleon Bonaparte - many of his biographers wrote about this. And this significantly influenced his popularity over the years," Valery ponders. "Therefore, in the modern world, literally anything can be considered a meme."

In any case, I sincerely believe that the memes that we have collected in this selection are truly worthy of your attention. At the very least, many of them will make you laugh, some will make you think twice. So please feel free to scroll this list to the very end - and let your scrolling be really exciting!

I asked my husband to take a photo of me at the Grand Canyon for my FB profile and it was awful. A stranger asked us to take a photo of herself and her husband and they were so cute.

Just because a woman isn't willing to put up with anyones BS, does not mean she doesn't have manners. It means she is not buying whatever c**p you're selling. If it were a man with money "talking back", you would not have sh*t to say.

Done that all messed UP: found a job at 17, got back to school at 23 and 37, about to get married at 44. Messed up, harder, but the getting married point is the best!

If you're broke at some point, but then have money at others, you're just poor. Actual rich people don't have the broke part ever. I mean, I'm living paycheck to paycheck too so no shade from me. Just sayin'

My youngest scares the c**p out of me. We paid 28k for our house in 1987. She and SIL paid 200k for their house 5-6 years ago. I can't even conceive. As a boomer, I am SO ashamed it has gotten here. Though...it was recently assessed (land tax) at over 300k.
