When I first saw this film I was 6. Until I was 11 I always thought that when someone died you just disappeared into thin air. I was very confused at the point of funeral and graves

Not to spoil the magic behind the scenes, but meme creators have mastered the art of making things so relatable they almost feel personal. After all, the word meme itself refers to a commonality shared by a group. If you peruse the internet, you’ll find meme pages devoted to almost any fandom and topic. Sometimes competing meme pages, where some slight difference has split the fanbase into two warring factions. As the webcomic XKCD once said “Human subcultures are nested fractally. There is no bottom.” In other words, we often set aside the 99% we have in common to battle over the 1% that differs. Now that is a personal attack.
We tend to enjoy content when we believe it’s directly related to us and our experiences. Fortune tellers, horoscope writers, and even personality tests use this concept, often referred to as the Barnum effect, to keep us engaged. The name comes from the famous/infamous American showman and businessman P. T. Barnum. While not exclusive to him, he did utilize the physiology of this effect to keep audiences engaged and entertained. Or distracted, you be the judge.

Hate being that guy, but, at least for me, turning down the music is so you can focus better; nothing to do with music.

Dude, you got the "Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting" edition! Sweet!!!
But wait, there’s more! Meme creators will also rely on meme-like structures to breed familiarity. You have likely encountered hundreds if not thousands of examples of ‘x is the new y,’ without thinking about it. This kind of structure is called a snowclone, referring to the often-cited idea that the Inuit peoples have hundreds of words for snow. This idea is actually misleading but serves its purpose here to explain this phenomenon. And now that you know what it is, you'll never be able to unsee it.

Meme: telling me to get more sleep. Me: reading the meme on bored panda at 2:49 am
More flexible than a traditional cliche, a snowclone can be bent and adjusted easily, while still maintaining an understandable frame of reference for the reader or viewer. Other more common variants include “the mother of all x,” which is attributed to none other than Saddam Hussein, or at least an Iraqi government Command Council. Others are easier to attribute, such as “to x or not to x?” and the wonderfully old-fashioned “have x, will travel,” for which we can thank the talented Bob Hope.

Well, duh. And the 90s were, like, ten years ago. Everyone knows that.
Memes like this help bridge our common humanity, as most of the ideas are quite relatable and we can see, from the likes, comments, and shares, that others feel similarly. This can be comforting in a world that often does seem polarized and where it can seem difficult to find common ground. Even outside of memes, research suggests that we aren’t as different as we might sometimes feel. Over 82% of respondents indicated similar emotional responses toward the beauty of nature in one study of relatability among groups.

True for women too. Many of my course mates don’t hang out enough to remember each other’s names. And most of them look alike to me. Simple solution: hey bro, dude, my gee, yes chairman, see ya boss, let’s hang out soon sis, can I see your note mazi? Na you oga mi. And every girl in my hostel is called sister. Sister can I borrow your charger? Sis this, sis that. Problem solved. Ain’t nobody got time for remembering names.
These studies argue that, below the surface, we do share a lot of social connectedness that gets drowned out by specific differences. The aforementioned piece of research focused on nature in particular, but it postulates that it could also show up in everything from hobbies, religion, and even places of birth. To extrapolate these ideas to memes that personally attack you, they can help us see universal or near-universal experiences that are shared with others. So even if you feel attacked, know that you are not alone.

I don't love babies on flights, but also I hear it's illegal to send them via the postal service so I get it.

Family means even less in monopoly, a lesson my grandmother taught me well. Or, should I say, the random old lady who bought as many hotels as she possibly could just so she could take my money.

I don't know, Netflix, maybe because of your decision to only continue funding a show if it receives a certain amount of views within the first two weeks, without taking into account the show's overall longevity, or the fact that certain demographics of people can't just drop everything and binge a show as soon as it gets released. Different shows cater to different age groups, and who do you think pays for subscriptions? It's not the kids! Maybe try being more flexible with how you do things rather than slotting everything into the same arbitrary rule bracket. Oh, but I forgot, your shareholders only care about quarterly expenditures.

I perceive to be individually besieged by this image, video, or piece of text that is typically humorous in nature, and is copied and spread rapidly by internet users, often with slight variations.

Replace "drinks" with either "chapters" or "bored panda articles," and "go home" with "go to sleep."
