An Uber ride can be the most memorable experience of any evening. Imagine this: you're wasted, you're starving, but the kebab joint that's still open at 3 AM is a long drive away. Luckily, the driver hears your stomach rumbling and offers you free candy. Heavenly, I know. On the flipside, maybe they got lost while trying to find you, and you're stuck waiting in the pouring rain, while you SO is texting complaints about a meal that's getting cold. To illustrate the vast spectrum of possible Uber experiences, people are using funny animal pictures, and the memes they create are so on-point, Bored Panda has decided to compile them into a list. From dealing with sketchy-looking drivers to getting into the wrong vehicle, scroll down to relive these quintessential moments and upvote your favorites!

This helps , if I bite my tongue then I can't say something stupid.
Tried to take an Uber from Times Square area to the Bronx Zoo (wonderful place if you get a Chaney) and the Asian driver spoke little English and ended up in Jersey! I knew I wouldn’t be able to give him directions if he couldn’t follow his own gps. He felt so bad but we just enjoyed it as a sight seeing tour. It was so funny. Still gave him 5 stars because he was so embarrassed but he had bottled water and Dum Dums! Root beer Dum Dums!
I'm glad my grandson taught me that now "lit" means "cool." In the 80's, it meant wasted!
Anyone getting and Uber while sober ???
Of course, what a silly question! The driver! hahahaha
I wish they had Uber when I was a young bar hopper! Or maybe I don’t...
Is this an Uber ad?
Yes it is
I have never had a bad experience with UBER. I have had MANY bad experiences with taxis. Screw the cab companies.
We stuck with Uber in NYC. The one time the doorman hailed a taxi and it was so filthy inside. The driver wasn’t very friendly either. The Ubers were so clean and the drivers friendly. But I took an Uber from my suburban home to go the dr recently for my broken foot, figured it was cheaper than anyone taking off work. This car shows up and while the driver was very friendly and accommodating of my walking scooter, but the car was disgusting, there was a Pepsi bottle of chew spit in the cup holder, his mouth was full of chew and he had a raggedy flag tank top on. I was not expecting a hillbilly in a Passat. But he got me there safely and was polite so whatever!
He was a nice guy and a good driver. I felt no reason to give him a bad review because of his personal choices that don’t effect me. Maybe he thought I was a spoiled suburbanite housewife with an obnoxious yellow sundress and a hot pink scooter. As long as we were polite to each other. We actually had some surgeries in common so there’s that.
So what you do there is give him a bad review. You have that option after every ride. These guys live and die by their reviews. If they get enough bad reviews, they get fired. At the same time, they review their riders and people CAN be banned from using UBER if they're obnoxious. ... I love that system. It's the ultimate crowd-sourcing of information - and you can't be ignored. How many times do we call to complain about the way we're treated and nothing happens?
