However, there are only a few wellsprings of memes that keep things original and classy. For today’s bunch, we have to thank this funny meme and jokes Instagram page with over 1.1 million followers, which shares relatable and diverse laughs on pretty much everything.

In today's digital era, where information travels at warp speed, and Apple's new luxurious VR goggles (only for $3500!) just beg to be made fun of, a curious cultural phenomenon has captured our collective imagination, transcending language, age, and class — funny memes and jokes for adults. These seemingly innocuous images, videos, or text snippets, infused with wit and humor, have woven their way into the very fabric of existence, not only online but in real life as well.
In a recent post, Adam Downer, the editor of “Know Your Meme,” explained to Bored Panda that “The best way for a meme to work is to have it be applicable to a wide array of situations, and it needs to be able to transcend its original context. Oftentimes, you'll see people clamoring over a 'new meme' that is really just jokes about one pop culture reference.”
I don't even get how that happens! Also, websites need to let me choose whatever password I want rather than their 14 requirements for the password, including a symbol, a chinese character and one of the spice girls...
I understand why they have certain requirements but for me, this only makes the whole thing less safe because I keep having to reboot my password or write it down somewhere
Load More Replies...Your password must consist of at least your shoesize, one childhood trauma and your favorite saturdaymorning cartoon.
The power of funny jokes and memes, then, lies in their versatility. They act as cultural mirrors, reflecting society's quirks, foibles, and prevailing trends. By poking fun at our collective obsessions, they offer a sense of camaraderie and validation.
Just think of all the times you have seen a memed-out Elon Musk (who appears not to mind it) or some clunky technology that was just begging to be made fun of. Surprisingly, we have come to a point when there's no point in counting just how many funny memes and jokes we are blessed with every day.
HEY! YOU GONNA JUST FORGET TO TAKE THE MAIL OUTTA ME?! IT’S NOT EVEN THAT HARD! BACK IN MY DAY, WE WEREN’T THERE TO SERVE AS CONVENIENT MAILBOX MARKERS! HURR DURR DURR!
Then they AAAALLL forget about your prescience just in time for when y'all meet the NEXT person who is about to screw everyone over...
Load More Replies...* sigh * I so wish to believe that this only happens in school, however, I think adults can be just as bad, if not worse....
This happened to me. There was this girl in my class who we added to our friend group, and I instantly hated her. Later that year she kicked me out of the group by lying. I got back in months later and got rid of that idiot, but she still tries to cause our group to fall apart.
Same there's this kid in my friend group who I DETEST he lies and is irritating and tries to get in fights with people. It took ages of telling people but they've started to look over him a bit more now
Load More Replies...Especially when you have a bad feeling about a new work colleague on the first meeting and no one else sees it until its to late. such as when they start stealing. I told you so
I got a rare instant dislike of colleague when we both started same day. I didn't say anything, because I was new and didn't know the dynamics, but I stood up to her attitude way quicker than I normally would, she made it clear she could not work with me - fine by me. Took months for everyone to see it, but after she tried complaining about a few people management made it clear they thought it was her problem. Fast forward 2 years, I still don't have to work with her and when she needs help there is a mad scramble from others trying to get out of it. I have never needed to say one bad word about her, simply if I'm asked I just say she can't work me and shrug.
Load More Replies...Yes, that's like me when people now see for themselves what my maternal unit is really like, and not the false image she projects in public! I feel vindicated!
Please just respect people's decisions. Like, all people's decisions. Please don't hit on straight women as a woman, it is just as annoying as being hit on by some pesky guy.
Agreed. Not sure why this meme is getting so much love. It seems to me it's the same as the guy who tells the straight woman she "just hasn't met the right man."
Load More Replies...Ohhhhh........ Oh my God I didn't expect reading that this morning. Hah
According to the BBC, the term “meme” was introduced by renowned evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in 1976. Drawing inspiration from the Greek word “mimeme” (which sounds a bit like Trump's brain-child “confefe”), Dawkins sought to elucidate the concept of discrete cultural units that replicate and spread among individuals, much like genes. In the act of linguistic creativity, he shortened "mimeme" to “meme,” which conveniently rhymed with “cream.” Dawkins proposed that these funny memes and jokes for adults encompassed melodies, ideas, catchphrases, or fragments of information that leap from one mind to another through imitation, facilitating their transmission.
Oh, yeah. And the hour or so before that when you're debating: if I get up and go to the bathroom will it wake me up more than staying in bed with the need to go?
Especially when you have a dozen cats. If you DARE to rise before brekkie, you'd best put on your most convincing zombie face ever to the potty and back. THEY will follow you, but there is a 9% chance they will let you off the hook if it's four in the morning, they can tell (somehow) that your bladder is full, and you completely ignore them like you have never seen a cat before in your life. If you accidently let them see that you have indeed seen a cat before, it's all over, though.
Because it’s universal. Your dominant nostril is contralaterally related to which of your brain’s hemispheres are dominant at any given moment. One of your bodily Ultradian rhythms that cycles ~90 minutes. Lots of fascinating research over forcing hemispheric dominance by forcing breathing through different nostrils. For example: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1938166/

Whoa! Right. Will it be a decongestant spray, or a moistening saline solution, tonight? What the hell. Both. So moist.

Load More Replies...Researchers at Meta, for example, showed just how fast funny memes and jokes on Instagram can spread and evolve. They found more than 121,000 different variants of one particular meme posted across more than 1 million status updates. Come to think of it, it's not so crazy to hear something like this in today's day and age. But we're talking about the age of “doge” and other classical memes that paved the way for a whole new appreciation of this internet phenomenon.
Y'all base your playlist off of your PERSONALITY? I just base it off of what I think sounds good. My preferred genre is all over the place!
I turn people on to Eno, Rimsky-Korsakov and Coltrane. In private I torture myself with Abba, Blink-182 and Grand Funk Railroad
Load More Replies...I have a playlist made special for when my parents and I listen to my music, I pick the most friendly ones lol. Either that or I just play Queen cause we all love Freddie Mercury
My phone is full of funny screenshots from Bored Panda
Load More Replies...After looking for a specific photo for ten minutes straight the other day, I realized the pictures stored on my phone are: screenshots and/or pictures of something I wanted to remember, share, or remember to share; forty-two pictures that are nearly identical, but not quite the EXACT angle/view/lighting of what I was trying to get a shot of; selfies I should have deleted, selfies I hate, but look okay; tattoo inspiration (I currently have 1,272 images in my tattoo inspiration album. I have exactly ONE tattoo.); pictures of my cats, past and present, pictures of my grandcat, pictures of other people's cats, pictures of cat-themed items, pictures of cat things I'd like to make/buy/find, and pictures of cats I wish were mine. Oh, and the seven pictures my child deigned to allow me to take.
I’ve had my phone for 5 months and already have over 200 pictures of my 8 cats on it
Fellow cat person Nay, we need to be friends!! You're the only one I know who has as many cats as I do hahaha!
Load More Replies...I swear I have at least 10 times more pictures of our pets (past and present, sadly) that’s I do of my husband. Poor guy. Then again, when I’m working, he’s the one who always sends me pictures of silly stuff our pets do, so…
I have a dachshund who has a tie, so I can confirm that this is true.

In essence, though, the fascination with funny jokes and memes can be attributed to their ability to entertain, connect, and provoke thought. Not only do they offer a form of cultural shorthand that binds us together, but they also offer a unique way for self-expression—something that is evident in the popularity of meme hubs like today‘s meme sponsor.

Once when we had a sunny day in England I laid in the garden reading a book all day - it felt like a 2 week holiday
Like dude, you just woke up, it’s eight AM and freezing cold. How do all the boys in my class have so much energy SO EARLY IN THE MORNINGGG FR
I prefer mornings & early evenings. It's when I'm cooky-est(?🤷♀️). I annoy a lot of cranky morning people with my cheeriness. Totally their problem, lol.
I'm no morning person (except on vacation) but how dare I have a problem with you being one. I will however make the face above on the inside if you're singing
Load More Replies...Yes. We have. But everyone is still going to keep putting +4s on +4s
Load More Replies...What about making the person who put down the +4 draw 4 by playing a "reverse" card?
the only rule of uno is that you make get anybody else to believe the wrong way is the right way
if you really want to be that cruel, play Uno flip, where you can stack +5
I love the photoshop in this one, I see a comma instead of a period for the likes
What? Do you mean the 32,4K? I‘m not sure how many countries do what, but I do know the US writes , instead of . and vice versa. This picture must have been taken in Europe though, I think. The first comment has 9907 likes and the second one 32400. They just shortened it to 32,4K. In Europe you would write a halve as 0,5 with a comma, not a period. And if you have 1000 you can write it as 1.000 with a period, not a comma. I know it‘s reversed in the US and I‘m sure it has led to many misunderstandings. What it is not though, is photoshopped.
Load More Replies...We should make this acceptable. Like, in Dutch, there’s a word that means: hang around, relax and do nothing, and that is an acceptable plan for your day ✨
Last night I made a to do list on what do do and had to put my paw print on it to agree to this document that I, corgi queen, will do all of the things on the list no matter how I felt in the morning
Yep, that’s me. Everyday I think ‘I’ll do more tomorrow’ but I don’t. I did go overseas for 7 weeks and I even had to have blob days in places I was desperate to see.
No, an adult emergencies, you still don't get a stop. Life goes on, and you just have to try to find a way to work around it.

Load More Replies...I saw a post on here a while ago where a kid replied, "Awake and not crying." to his mom when she asked how he was doing. This is my answer to everyone now when they ask how I'm doing.
Ok, so a (slightly) less s****y way of the very s****y saying "suck it up, princess".
Even in an emergency it does. not. stop. Does the rental or energy company care that *insert unfortunate event, death or illness* happened? No.
Idk what ride this is, but I can only imagine it's a little kiddie ride that won't hurt anyone. But some "precious little angel" just couldn't handle the fact that somebody bumped their bumper.car or something, and started crying. So then their Karen helicopter mom demanded they stop the ride so she can rescue her sweet, traumatized baby, and went off when they wouldn't, screaming about sueing them for keeping her baby away from her against their will. And thus, a sign is born. 😂😂😂😂
Technically he was 4 years old when he applied for the job. As his mother was always the heir presumptive. When George VI died, he was immediately 1st in line.
His eyes are just entirely too close together... it is so very strange looking
What? I’m American and a teenager, could someone explain lol
Load More Replies...I think people get confused and think that he only became the heir apparent when he was made the Prince of Wales but that's not the case! That's just the title given to the next in line for the throne, if it's a male anyway! God almighty I still can't believe auld Lizzie is gone! I sobbed my heart out for an hour when the news broke!
He was already in the line of succession when he was born. When he was born, the Queen was already first in line for the throne! And there was never going to be any question of another abdication! But technically, he became the heir apparent the moment his grandfather died and his mother became Queen!
right here lol! (before I was lonely I was the single Pringle BeepBoop. Hence my broken Pringle pfp)
Load More Replies...I know what this means, but this particular meme sounds a bit arrogant. Having standards is one thing but feeling too good for the whole world is another

who's phone looks like this? I have two buttons "Accept" and "Decline", what the hell are "Hold" or "End" used for that are different from "Decline" and why is "Accept" on there twice?
When you are already on a call, and a second person calls you. 1) end the current call amd accept the new call. 2) decline the new call, stay in the old one. 3) put the current call on hold, accept the new call, when new call is finished, retirn to old call.
Load More Replies...This needs a end & decline option, that way u could say u got another call and just take a nap
Or when you accidentally answer & it's your toxic AF sister from a new number.
My anxiety: Look I know this a secure public building but guess what I THINK THERE'S A BOMB IN THAT ROOM BEHIND YOU-
Load More Replies...My anxiety appears when I’m either at school or in a moving vehicle. I get so anxious that a car will crash into us that I always close my eyes when traveling
but then you get nervous and have to open them. (or for me at least)
Load More Replies...Tiny story time: So I have severe anxiety and my dad and I were chilling in our huge greenhouse. There is a shade cloth over the plants and my dad, who had hung it up, decided to climb up onto it. It was SOOOO nice and sunny, so, despite my anxiety, I climbed up onto it with him. My anxiety made me really nervous so I shifted to the side where it was safer, but less sunny. 3 seconds later, the shade cloth collapsed and my dad fell far to the floor. (He was fine, just bruised.) TLDR: my anxiety, while sucky, saved me from severe injuries :)
oh dang anxiety was useful for you why can't that happen to me lol
Load More Replies...me: just going to a public restroom, totally normal... My anxiety: LETS DISCUSS WHAT COULD GO WRONG HERE
we are a spoiled and self indulged people..oh my anxiety oh me oh my! start all sentences with MY or ME
Just when you think everything's peachy........BOOM B***H!!!! :O Anxiety: here to funk up your day since the day you were born! :(
I do this every day I work at the hospital. Because by the time 12pm rolls around, we've got discharged to deal with, and it's easier to do it on a stomach not full-to-bursting.

I use food pantries all the time, and they are utterly fantastic. I feel no shame, and they have fully kept me housed and able to pay energy bills that could have bodied me. I don’t believe in God, but I feel like food banks give me a little peek into why some people believe in a benevolent force helping them.

This looks more like what I think I look like vs what I actually look like
This is me because when I don't know people very well, I don't know how to act around them, but I already know my friends, so I just switch to the personality they're used to.

I met someone the other day and like the 1st thing they told me is they don’t like art. Not in an “I hate art, end of conversation” way, just offhandedly said he didn’t like it. But still, HOW DO YOU NOT LIKE ART? He was nice enough but what the heck?
Table for 26 please. No, we're all gonna sit on the same side.
Load More Replies...It's fine, so long as they resist the urge to imitate something like "Judith Beheading Holofernes"
some museums will let groups come in and imitate paintings for group pictures. My staff from one of my old jobs did this as a Holiday party activity. It was fun.
Sounds like a cool idea for a date. Or just a spontaneous suggestion.
Just don't get depressed. You have such a easy life pretty cringe to think you're sad.
At least they are having fun with their disorders? I wish I got along with my depression so well!
Not MY whole squad. Regret and guilt have yet to make their appearance. But I have faith in them.
Also: after 45 minutes you're still trying to appear supportive but you're actually compiling your grocery shopping list in your head.

Load More Replies...Dude how do so many people relate with this, what the heck? When my friend is crying my focus is 100% on them, and I listen to them and empathise with them and crack jokes to help cheer them up and stuff. Crying in front of someone is so hard, how could you just be uncaring towards it? I’d understand if it were the kind of friend who vents 24/7, but even venting is different from crying and most friends only cry in front of you occasionally. What the heck people? Can you not spare an hour fir someone?
In my defense, I can't even focus on my own tears. Seriously. I'll be crying, realize I need to put tissues on my list, realize I don't need the frozen peas that are on the list, then gotta check the freezer for what I do need. Man, I need to clean that thing out. Why would he say that? Sobbing, scrubbing crying. Oooh rocky road. I need unload the dishwasher........

I saw a video that said that painting like this, looked the way they did, because it had something to do with representing the adult Jesus in the Baby Jesus. Something like that? Idk. It looks weird.
In Donna Leon's Commissario Brunetti series, he and his wife have a pastime: They go to galleries and look for the ugliest depiction of the baby Jesus. Apparently, Rennaissance painters couldn't get live babies as models, as there seem to be a lot of depictions of ugly babies.
it's like my mom, after yelling at me she tries to hug me and I want to say no but then SHE gets mad again. I don't even like hugs unless they're from my gf.
