Tuesday is an odd day in the week. It lacks the dread of Monday and the hopefulness of Friday, often making it feel like an uphill climb. Imagine your job was paying too little, and you’re stuck at work; the funny Tuesday meme is sometimes all you need on a long day like this. 

What other way to embody the Tuesday spirit, if not by starting it with a Taco Tuesday meme? It combines the simple joys of life with the hope of midweek motivation. A taco night with your favorite people can quickly transform the mundane into a full celebration. And if you’re already looking forward to Hump Day, a good Tuesday meme can help you power through until Wednesday.

Or, what about sharing a hilarious Tuesday morning meme with your friends that captures how ambivalent everyone feels as the dreadful day approaches? From the struggles of getting out of bed to rushing through the door, the battle against the morning blues is on. 

So, whether you’re fighting a mountain of tasks or simply needing a burst of positivity, let these funniest memes remind you that happiness can be found even on a Tuesday.

The Origin of the Word Tuesday

Today is the perfect day to dive deeper into the origins of “Tuesday” and what it represents.

The name “Tuesday” originates from the Old English “tīwesdæg,” which means “Tiu’s day,” named after the Germanic god of the sky and war. In Norse mythology, Tiu corresponds to Tyr (1).

Meanwhile, in Latin, Tuesday was referred to as “diēs Mārtis,” or “Mars’s day,” in honor of the Roman god of war. However, the day was dedicated to the Germanic god Tiu in Old English, which eventually evolved into “Tuesday.”

The Reason We Feel Time Stops on Tuesdays

Tuesdays often seem to drag on endlessly during the workweek, leaving many of us wondering why the week isn't moving along faster. This feeling isn't just in our heads; psychological reasons make Tuesdays feel particularly tough.

Ruth Ogden, a senior lecturer in psychology at Liverpool John Moores University, in a 2019 interview with Katie Heaney, The Cut (New York Magazine), explains that our perception of time is significantly influenced by our activities and emotions (2). 

Mondays, typically the most dreadful day, set the stage for this temporal confusion. “When we’re doing lots of things when we’re processing lots of information, we feel like more time has passed than normal,” Ogden said to Heaney.

Emotions also play a significant role. Ogden points out that intense emotional states, or arousal, can warp our perception of time. Stressful Mondays can feel never-ending, which can make the transition to Tuesday, when there’s still a lot of the workweek left, particularly distressing.

This issue worsens with age. “One of the things that elderly people say is that time passes more quickly as we get older,” Ogden said in an interview. 

To counter this, Ogden suggests practicing mindfulness and relaxation techniques to reduce the anxiety of time passing slowly. Another practical approach is to revamp Tuesdays by planning enjoyable activities, breaking the routine, and creating something to look forward to in the middle of the week.
