We’ve picked some of the standouts from the deep well of posts about doom-scrolling, corny puns that tickle the funny bone, and questions that stir curiosity. Keep scrolling, and you may just find the exact meme that perfectly encapsulates your current state of emotions.

Memes have a staying power that has allowed them to outlive many internet trends that have come and gone. Even with the drastic switch in content creation these days, they still remain relevant. Why is that?

One possible reason is their impact on society. An article by the University of Westminster pointed out a meme’s ability to elicit emotions through a simple image and text. Greenpeace co-founder Bob Hunter called this concept a “mind bomb,” a photo that sends a strong message and urges action.

My toddler had a frozen bread roll yesterday. He didn't allow me to unfreeze it, because he doesn't like them "warm". I dared him to eat it frozen then and he did. I have no more power here.

Greenpeace also used memes to make statements about the causes it promotes. Most of their posts covered misinformation about climate change and protecting the environment, which got the younger audience's attention.

Another possible reason for memes' longevity is their pop culture connection. Many of them include images of some of the biggest celebrities in the world. Remember crying Michael Jordan? How about Ron Burgundy’s famous catchphrase from the first Anchorman movie?

These famous faces have been used to express an emotion that everyone could always relate to, making these memes stand the test of time.

But what makes a meme so effective? Entertainment publishing entrepreneur Kit Chilvers attributes it to their shareability through humor, which brings people together. 

In an interview with the New York Times, he pointed out how memes can make people feel like they belong to a tribe of like-minded individuals. Content creator Saint Hoax agrees, describing these images as "editorial cartoons for the internet age."

Kevin Sean Report

Saint Hoax has over three million Instagram followers, building their online presence almost exclusively from memes. They also credit the “transmissibility” of these funny yet relatable posts and how they can translate within different cultures. 

“It has the ability to capture insight in a way that is in complete alignment with the zeitgeist,” Saint Hoax said in the same Times interview.

Now, we’d like to hear your opinions. Why do you think memes are still as popular as they were almost 15 years ago? What do you think is the reason behind their longevity? Let yourself be heard in the comments!

I refuse to believe that something known as a ‘spider wasp’ exists. I wholeheartedly believe that the devil needs to take his pets back, instead of keeping them in Australia. All who agree, say aye. Aye!

What's the problem? The spider wasp already has a meal and isn't likely to think of me as one... seriously, I've lived nearly 50 years in Aus and have never seen a spider wasp. Spiders, yep. Wasps, yep. If they get inside, carefully catch them and put them outside. Non-venomous snakes are also ok if they're outside. Venomous nope-ropes mean a call to a professional to capture and relocate - have had a few in the yard - thankfully, none inside the house. It's important to have an awareness of the likelihood of encountering certain animals, and to be sensible about what you do if/when you do. But then in general - just get on with life. Isn't that the same, just with different animals, in most places?

I live in coastal Mississippi and saw something similar the other day outside on my window. At first, I just saw what looked like a dead wolf spider bobbing along the upper sill, then it dropped down a little and I saw a large bug I couldn't immediately identify was carrying it. Before I could get a photo, it lost its grip and fell, but it was a smaller scale of this photo,

We have the same thing going on here in New Mexico except ours are called Tarantula Hawk Wasps and they go after, well, Tarantulas. Lots of folks call them as Cowboy Wasps too. Being stung by one of them is HELLA hot, it leaves a big hole and burns and throbs and you will cry. I've only been stung once, I'm good for the rest of my life!

Woman from the post's ancestors come from the most deadly continent on earth, and a wasp killing a decent sized spider is too much for her. Meanwhile, Australians from the tame British Isles are all: "Hey, hold my beer while I punch this kangaroo, wrestle that croc, and grab a deadly snake by the tail!"...
