While “texting” used to mean sending SMS messages, the term has been expanded to cover really most messaging services that many of us use on a daily basis. Fortunately, the word “texting” has pretty long legs and still does cover most of the things we might use it for. 

The “Funny Texts” Facebook page is dedicated to both the amusing messages that people have sent and relatable memes in general. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites, and be sure to comment your thoughts below.

That one hits me hard. Watched it happen to my Great Grandmother. I suspect it runs in the family so she won't be the last.

RELATED:

    The core of a good meme, beyond humor or creativity, is that kernel of relatability. Richard Dawkins, who coined the phrase meme, envisioned it as a viral idea that spread from person to person much like a virus. However, what he didn’t expect was the fact that much of this information would center around humor and that the internet is an incredibly potent vector for “infection.” 

    Part of the appeal is that the ideas carried by the meme either focus on a shared experience or emotion or work with familiar information and context. This comes from the high degree of intertextuality that memes possess. After all, we can generally understand the situations depicted in memes through our own life experiences, other memes, or just general knowledge of the world. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    At a certain point, memes have become self-referential. If you have ever had to explain a meme to an older relative or someone “less online,” you will know that internet lore is deep. Some memes require a person to understand multiple other references, just to understand the context needed to enjoy certain memes.

    It's not the money going out to inconsequentials, it's the fact that every generation since the boomers has been consistently underpaid.

    Was in Lidl the other day and a woman was wondering where the lettuce was. I pointed and said "Iceburg deåd ahead" I couldn't resist myself. We both laughed so all was good 👍

    My mother also. Used to pick her up every Saturday for breakfast and shopping. Pulled in the driveway one beautiful summer day and she opened the door, holding her phone, saying "Oh...nevermind. She's here now." When she got in the car I asked who she was talking to and she said "The police." I asked WHY??? and she said because I was late and I was never late so she thought something happened. I replied that I had TOLD her I'd be late because I had a dentist appointment. She said "Ohhhh....that's right! Where do you want to go to eat?".

    Omg I feel this. My parents performed only the required parenting duties which did not include extra curriculars, displays of love, compassion, encouragement etc. and I love them but my adult life has been very difficult to navigate.

    I tell my daughter this but she’s too busy hoping her bf is something he’s not so it goes in one ear and out the other. I hope she realizes before she puts ten years in waiting for change.

    Same. I haven't seen my aunts and uncles from one side in at least 8 years. Some of the cousins I saw a year ago at Christmas but not all. But for my brother it's been more like 15 years, so I'm still the good one.

    I'm the only one that moved away, the youngest of the cousins and the only one without kids. My role is to turn up occasionally, be charismatic and leave before they have time to get sick of me. Also, trying to sort out my dad's laptop issues remotely.

    The problem is the „not“. Instead of saying „do not spend“ say „safe money“. Sometimes your brain just cannot process a „not“

    Lies I do understand this because I didn't want to skip the theme songs and so I ran to the bathroom because why skip to the end of the show when you could be back when the new episode starts playing. And with call of duty I ran in between matches to go to the bathroom.

    My husband and I were states away, me in the middle of the country and he was on the East Coast. He drove the 23 hours to visit. I would fly back and forth to see him. The only heartache about it was when we had to split without knowing when we'd see each other again. We will be married for 10 years this August.

    Interesting thing is, I keep thinking why do people buy so much groceries and how much money they've spent and they annoy me, but I still watch them. Especially that one with the long nails and ring on every finger, with white sleves which go up to her fingers. Girl, when you're cleaning the fridge, roll up your sleves, you'll mess up your sweatshirt. >.<
