I always make sure to tell mine I love him, so on the off chance he understands me he knows it in case I don't make it back alive.

    Scarily so. Especially when I suffer from bad nightmares and night terrors. I can return to the sane horrid, incredibly vivid dream after waking 3 times in fright. I also have no idea it's a dream at the time and can feel terrorised for hours into the next day. I've heard of people that can lucid dream and pull themselves out or be aware they are dreaming.

    Even though we’re already almost three months into the new year, it’s not too late to look back at some of the memes we loved in 2023.

    Jessica Maddox, assistant professor of digital media, recapped the last twelve months online by saying that memes seemed to be the main way people dealt with, reacted to, and processed the news, whereas senior writer Thomas Germain from Gizmodo (a media outlet) claimed that “judging by what we saw in 2023, it’s clear that the golden age of memes is over.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    To settle this, Bored Panda reached out to viral marketing strategist and CEO of Viral Marketing Stars, Katya Varbanova, who believes that memes in 2023 were brilliant, especially the ones about women’s empowerment.

    “A lot of the memes in 2023 had to do with female empowerment, so is it possible that those who claim it was weak may simply be uncomfortable with seeing female-focused trends dominating their screens? Examples: the Barbie movie memes, Girl Dinner, Girl Math, and Tube Girl. I don't think it was weak. I think it was iconic.”

    Actually, what the photo shows is a service dog that is working... by bringing comfort and confidence which is part of their job. I know y'all may not like that a dog has a job, and you may down vote my post because of it, but service dogs deserve respect. I love that no one is trying to distract the dog doing his/her job.

    Actually, what the photo shows is a SEARCH DOG (as printed on the left one's vest), and the scene appears to be a transportation terminal (probably an airport), and the human is clearly an armed official, such as police or military. So I'm not sure where the pointy "y'all may not like that a dog has a job" popped out, but lordy, you must not read this site. It's pretty much entirely occupied by supporters of good bois everywhere. So no need to remind us to respect service animals, we're way ahead of you there. .

    We also got in touch with meme researcher from Syracuse University (a private research university in New York), Alexander Smith, who agreed that last year was relatively good for humorous trends.

    "I would not say 2023 was a "weak" year. From 2020 to 2022, memes expressed a lot of humorous nihilism, gallows humor, and helplessness that struck a chord with everyone following the pandemic.

    2023 memes were an about-face from that mentality and a desire for personal stability and for things to make sense again. We also saw memes that referenced celebrity caricature humor like Josh Hutcherson and Kevin James, mashups like Barbenheimer, and a lot of references to memes that took on an aesthetic not entirely different from Flash illustrations during the 2000s. "

    Furthermore, Smith reminds us that Cheems passed away in 2023, which had a big cultural impact with its Doge memes for over a decade.

    He recaps the year by saying, "In that sense, maybe the expected humor of memes was a little lackluster, predictable, or reminiscing about "better times" in the meme world, but they were still everywhere, representing some kind of emotional consensus of the moment."

    Getting trapped inside abandoned refrigerators was the horror story we children were raised on back in the 50/60's. Modern refrigerators have magnetic closures, not the latches of older refrigerators, so they're easier to open from the inside. However, I've observed my 96 yo neighbor struggle to open her new medium-size refrigerator, so I wonder if a toddler would be strong enough to push it open from inside. I would still err on the side of caution and remove the door.

    The best passwords are three words in a row that mean nothing to anybody else but make a weird sense. For example "Angryunicornsfarting". That's pretty simple to remember, because it creates a weird visual. However, the chances of anybody guessing it based on your profile or even your entire life is astronomically low. Letters are also better than digits, since there are 10 possible digits, but there are 26 possible letters. Using pet names, addresses, occupations, etc, are much simpler to figure out. Not my idea, though: https://xkcd.com/936/

    Male the password something that you use the website for. Like, if you use ravelry to look for crocheted blankets, the password could be CrochetedBlankets4theWin. If you use interpals to find snail mail friends, the password could be Newletters2me. Makes it a whole lot more easy to remember a password than just random numbers and letters. :) (I know I know, I keep mentioning this every time I see a post about passwords.... 😊)

    Naturally, we were curious to know which memes our interviewees liked the best in 2023. Varbanova told Bored Panda, “Some of my personal favorite memes were from the Barbie movie, for sure. They were iconic. For the first time in forever, we have a female main character whose life doesn't revolve around the main character (Ken). And some of the best memes show that."

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Whereas Smith's favorite ones were about the desire for mental stability and clarity for the average person fighting against the odds of the pandemic and economic inequality.

    He explained, "There were many exceptional representations of that, but my favorite was the ASMR Bentley parodies. People were going on TikTok to stitch this seemingly posh young woman showing off a Bentley with actual vehicular circumstances ranging from beat-up Fords and Hondas to semi-trucks to tractors to broken-down armored military vehicles.

    It gave us moment-to-moment reflections on working-class circumstances next to the unattainable expectations being marketed. Memes showed up in 2023 to tell the wealthy to lower their capitalistic expectations around conspicuous consumption, unattainable body standards, and respect for the ultra-wealthy. It simultaneously reflected on what was entertaining, understandable, and representative of working-class circumstances. That resonated."

    Personally, I'm going for organ donation-they can take whatever bit of me will be useful, and whatever is left can be buried in a woodland site so I can nourish the trees, grow apples and be made into pie.

    Mortuaries are pathetic imo. They are a scam. People need to go back to dust. Not be "preserved" in a $5k plus un-biodegradable box that no one ever sees anyway after it's buried. God, humans need so much help....

    I've donated my body to three university anatomy departments because if one doesn't have the space, the others can be contacted within 24 hours (the cut off for donations). The body is incinerated afterwards. However, if the body is mangled, it cannot be accepted, and other arrangements need to be made. By that time, I won't be in the position to make a decision, so whatever the state does with it is fine with me.

    Absolutely! They guarantee that all necessary donated organs will be removed before any scientific or med-educational uses. Win-win, without all the creepy body-preserving stuff is done. You die — you’re dead. Don’t burden the Earth and your family with a load of expensive, long-lasting apparatus.

    When asked why so many people find memes enjoyable and choose them as a medium to process world events, Varbanova explained, “I believe memes are powerful because they communicate visually what is hard to express with words. They are relatable, humorous, and easy to share. They're culturally relevant and allow for escapism. They truly impact the way the world operates because the memes in 2023 allowed our collective of people who feel the same to finally speak up.”

    Smith had a similar view, saying that people like memes because they speak for us in simple words, in a way we often can't.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "A meme takes a collective emotional quality to exist and justify our lived experiences and culture. Memes are not just a medium, but a connective expression of culture that emerges from everyday people outside of the bounds of corporate formalities or editorial accuracy to say what we want to really say."

    If you have an irregular sleep pattern, maybe biphasic sleep is best for you. I was a night baby & kept an opposing circadian rhythm into my pre-teens. Much effort on my parents & doctors/specialists went into trying to help me sleep the modern 8ish hours at night, with little success. By high school I gave into my two sleeps per 24 hours. I participated in a few sleep studies over the years. Much like with melatonin, if it works for you, it works wonders. Every other week, I go back & forth between two time zones 2 or 3 hours apart. Which is easier to do when I’m already sleeping a segmented schedule. Ideally I get 5 & 3 hours per day. Sometimes it’s 4 & 4, 5 & 2 or even 3 & 3. As long as I get a minimum of 6 hours, I’ve steady energy & stamina throughout wake time. Also, because. Know I get a 2nd sleep or had a solid 1st, I never have sleep anxiety or worry about getting enough. If you have the need, check it out. https://www.healthline.com/health/biphasic-sleep

    I once told my (now ex) sister-in-law that she may be brother’s wife now, but that doesn’t mean forever, while I’ll always be his brother. It was in response to her micro-homophobia and wanting him to take a South Pacific vacation with her, cancelling his role in and not attending my wedding Because they only had enough vacation time to do one or the other and according to her my wedding wasn’t real anyways. This bigotry was also a main factor he cited as to why they had irreconcilable differences. A buddies new gf didn’t want him to eat something we’d offered & when I asked why, she said “because I’m his gf!” in an entitled, controlling way. To which I relied, “Ya you are. . .for now!.”

    Maddox added that memes helped shift the way we use language, elevating and giving new meanings to words like “rizz” and “baby girl,” which already have entered the general lexicon. Additionally, this year was notable for its wide range of meme mediums, from text comments to TikToks to standard still images.

    At last, we’re starting our mini meme review with last September, when women on TikTok found out that men think about the Roman Empire unusually regularly. Some of them reveal wondering about the subject weekly and even daily. Many knew the territory’s impact on modern society, along with the reasons why. Other platform users joined in the fun and shared their own “Roman Empires"—topics they think of weirdly often. Popular responses included Salem Witch trials, Meredith Blake from The Parent Trap, and the Eras Tour.

    Well yeah, that’s what happens when you don’t sleep enough to begin with.

    In 2023, the internet was obsessed with raving about babygirls and sweeping boyfriends under the rug. The term is used to describe adult men who are so attractive, cute, and comfortable in their masculinity that one would want to protect them. Some sweethearts who made it to the list are Harry Styles, Lewis Hamilton, and Colin Farrel. TikTok is the main place to look for babygirl fandom content. So if you’re in the mood for cutesy edits of Walter White as a catboy, you know where to look.

    One of the fan-favorite babygirls, Pedro Pascal, also kicked off a meme in 2023 where he was peacefully eating a sandwich. Paired with pensive piano music, it’s used to represent a sense of inner peace. One TikTok shows Pascal in an office break room with the caption "When everyone at work is drowning in tasks, but I still have five minutes before my break is over.”

    A promotional photo of actor Kevin James shrugging was seen all over the world as it found a new life after one X user captioned it with “me after 1 double rum and diet.” His sheepish grin, paired with his raised shoulders, made it the perfect medium for top-notch memes. A particularly successful one came with the question “Who put this song on?” referencing times when partygoers played tunes that completely didn’t fit the atmosphere of the gathering. The actor in the photo is sometimes edited to match the genre of the song. Surprisingly, James saw the meme and posted it on Instagram to promote his comedy tour.

    Another honorable mention is the Girl Dinner and Girl Math trends, which showcase womanhood at its best. In the first one, women show an array of snacks that replace their whole meal. This typically includes some fruit, a block of cheese, sliced salami, fancy crackers, and some olives. The latter is sneaky logic that females use to justify their purchases. For instance, if you pay with cash, it’s free, and if an item is on sale, technically, you’re making a profit.

    To the people that do this, this is a reason you're so tired throughout the day. I used to do it, but wife got me in the habit of getting up with the first alarm, and I feel so much better for it now. It's a b***h to get used to in the beginning though

    This!!! That extra time laying there thinking you’re cherishing your last few moments in bed is not restful at all. There’s studies on this & snoozers tend to crash after 2:00 and take naps. Meanwhile, learning to hop up & move at the first alarm becomes invigorating and helps maintain cognitive function throughout the day.

    So many rules. I’m an adult so I get to be friends with whomever I want, as long as it’s mutual. Who cares if they’re with another, older friend, an ex or maybe a family member or coworker. Likewise my individual friendships are absolutely nobody else’s business except me and that person. The type of people who have issues, find conflicts of interest, harbor resentment or jealousy pretty much weed themselves out of my social life simply by the issues. Ain’t nobody got time for that!!!

    The last meme of the year we’re going to cover today is concerned with the creation of a new word in the dating world: rizz. For those who are a little bit confused, it signifies style, charm, or attractiveness—all of the qualities needed to find a potential partner. This expression attracted so much attention online that it was selected as Oxford's Word of the Year for 2023 with more than 32,000 votes from the public.

    Having taken a brief look at some of the most viral memes of the past year, let’s look at the future and what it holds for this kind of popular content. Something that Maddox anticipates is the rise in video and AI-based memes. However, she adds, “The traditional meme will always be there, no matter what other type of media gets thrown into the mix."

    Smith also believes that 2023 and onward are going to be a wild ride with AI-generated meme content.

    "In the U.S., we're seeing the introduction of laws to fight similar things, as was recently made very public in relation to the Taylor Swift deepfake. To be clear, deep fakes have been around for a while, but the creation of all kinds of AI-generated memes is on the rise, creating entirely different challenges in making sense of the world.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Artificial intelligence is generating a memetic culture of its own in a world where most people aren't really sure if we should call AI intelligent or not.

    2024 might be the year we see more AI-generated memes than ever, and it seems like soon we are going to see governments getting involved in memes in a different way than 'my personal FBI agent' memes. The legalities surrounding them, such as their appropriation of intellectual property and using the likeness of real people, have always been a gray area. Some of that might change because of AI. Memes were always political; that's going to be more apparent as we move onward."
