Everyone has their own challenges, but students tend to take things to a whole other level. After all, they have to deal with tight deadlines, tyrant professors, ridiculous parties, all-nighters, and much more almost on a daily basis. So while it can be hard to explain what it's really like in a few brief words, let's just agree that school life is indeed like a rollercoaster ride full of swerves and curves down the track.
Students’ day-to-day schedules are some of the most unstable out there, so they are often in great need of blowing off some steam. Enter the 'Educational Memes' Facebook page that serves as a refreshing outlet full of hilarious jokes for all the fatigued souls out there.

We at Bored Panda have combed the page to bring you a fresh collection of funny and relatable posts and help you find a way out of your crisis with laughter.

Whether you're taking a break between classes or simply want to remember the good old days, it’s interesting to see what 'Educational Memes' come up with. After all, nearly anyone who has ever stepped foot in a classroom has a few memories to share and can relate easily to these jokes. Well, at least, there are over 678K followers on Facebook who can. Ever since the page was created, it has become one of the go-to places for students worldwide to receive their daily dose of comic relief.
We managed to get in touch with the creator of 'Educational Memes', Yashdeep Kanhai, who was kind enough to tell us more about his entertaining corner on the internet. The founder told Bored Panda he is a law student who used to work with 'Dank Meme LLC'. "[I] managed several meme pages back in 2017-2019 with a collective audience of 10M, I have also been a moderator of the subreddit r/DankMemes," he revealed.
Yashdeep started this page on 12th May 2017. "I was very passionate about memes, during that time there were no meme pages related to education," he said and added that he used to make countless jokes out of the things he studied. That’s when he got the idea to start this project, and he never looked back.
Initially, the community on Facebook was very active from 2017 to 2019, and many devoted fans used to send in submissions all the time. But come 2020, Yashdeep noticed a slow and steady decline in engagement on the platform. However, he revealed that the account he created on Instagram is still alive and well.
Back when Yashdeep started the page, he had plenty of time on his hands, "so I didn't have difficulty managing the account." But ever since he enrolled as a student at a university, he rarely manages to find the time to post as much as he did before.
Still, thousands of students enjoy looking at the funny pictures and jokes he posts. The creator of the page guessed that the reason behind this is simple: memes are relatable. "[They] distract them from their busy academic life. They share it with their friends and have a laugh," he told us.
Yashdeep agreed that memes can help people unwind from their troubles and can even help fight their daily struggles. "Life gets depressing and boring every now and then, and what's better than to jump on the bed, take out your phone and look at memes after a busy day," he said.
I need to actually watch this video because it's finals time almost and I have so much work and guess what I'm not doing now. Work. I'm not doing work.
Speaking of jokes, the fact that looking at a few funny images a day can significantly improve our mood and general wellbeing is nothing new. Humor boosts our heart rate, supports our immune system, and even produces endorphins, our natural painkillers.
"We know that laughter has been shown in studies to improve your pain threshold, likely due to an endorphin-mediated opiate effect. What is interesting is that this appears to be independent of your mood, meaning that it can have a positive effect even when you are down," Robert Bonakdar, director of pain management at the Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine, told Verywell Mind.
Aside from the physical reactions, laughter also has plenty of psychological and social benefits, like improving our memory and letting us form long-lasting and meaningful relationships with other people. In an earlier interview, Joshua Klapow, Ph.D., psychologist and creator of MentalDrive, told Bored Panda that every single one of us needs humor in our lives.
He explained that laughter is the polar opposite of the stress, distress, frustration, and fatigue we can often feel during the day. "An intermittent dose of humor that results in a mood shift, even temporarily, can reset us emotionally and give us more emotional strength to carry on in our work," he added.
I'm taking German and honestly I get so mixed up between zehn, Zehen, Zeh, and zahn

Hindi writing is hard. If you change just one vowel then the word changes meaning. Like you can accidently write “poor” instead of day in Hindi
Aren't Cyrillic and Arabic languages hard to learn when you don't know?
Don't know about Cyrillic, but I learned Arabic quite easily through the total immersion of being sent to the Kingdom as an advisor in the 1980s. Speaking and conversation, that is; I learned to read some words in standardized script, but never could read personal handwriting nor learned to read fluently. The vast majority of those with which I worked/taught had been taught English, French, or both from childhood, so reading Arabic wasn't as high a priority. At the time, there was great value given to personal, spoken interactions, and to do so in Arabic was deemed a mark of great respect, so I became quite conversationally fluent over the years. The only downside was, having learned mostly in Riyadh, in the other Arabic speaking nations in which I worked, I was considered to have a somewhat snotty, upperclass accent. My only regret was I never mastered more than a handful of Sura from the Q'ran, a quite poetic and interesting book in the original. Like Spanish, Arabic varies by place.

Literally nobody has ever said English is the easiest language to learn.
Well, I'm not english native so I can tell you that I find it pretty easy, at least when it comes about grammar, spanish grammar is way worse and confusing

when I scrolled I thought they all said "thought" and it was a joke about ADHD
Wow looking at the comments I almost feel like German could be harder? But English does have words that sound the same but mean different things & words that mean the same thing but are spelled differently. And like your & you're - is that the same?
No, "your" indicates possession, whereas "you're" is the informal contraction of "you are", a part of those accursed forms of "be".

Englisch ist 1000x einfacher zu lernen im Gegensatz zu Deutsch... Ich komme aus Deutschland und lerne seit 6 Jahren Englisch und ich kann glaube ich manchmal besser Englisch als Deutsch
Henri- does your comment say: "English is 1000x easier to learn in comparison to German... I come from Germany and learned English in six years and I can read(?) and write(?) better English than German"? I swear I didn't Google this, I worked with several Siemens techs some years ago, and did read it several times in one of their voices (Stephan), I think I got it mostly through context. I also watched the film "Battle of Britain" last night, and I always try to match voice to subtitles on any film using such; in that film the Germans were all played by German speakers, so I got a couple hours of translation! I'm curious how close I got, and won't Google. I like language, but I'm perhaps too old now to try a complicated one as Deutsch!

Don't forget cantonese- saying 'That brother is taller than that brother!' sounds like chicken lingo
English is the hardest. There are more cases of dyslexia among English speakers than any other language. I used to tell my first graders that English was out to get them.
As someone with the word "trough" tattooed on my arm where it should say "through", I concur with this image
It mostly comes from Germanic, not German. But German also comes from Germanic ;)

English is the hardest. Not only do we have the above issue, but we've also got a thing with slang, street, txt, shorthand, txt slang, txt street, street slang, etc. And let's not forget different dialects. And such dialects can run in various sizes and overlap at various points. I've seen dialects that change by the street. And the icing on the cake? No one wants to help you learn, they'll just mock you for not knowing. Meanwhile every other language I've dabbled in, the native speakers of it have been helpful 99% of the time. Sure, they'll laugh, but they'll inform you to better you.
Common Spoken English is the easiest, but it's only a dialect of a few hundred words. Standard Written English is the second hardest to learn, behind Mandarin Chinese.
I cannot believe we still spell 'through' like this and 'tough' like that. Thanks Spideys.
I have never heard anyone say once that English is the easiest language to learn
Who said English was the easiest language to learn? I've never heard that. I have however heard "The French are all fantastic because they can all speak French" NB I'm English and rubbish at learning all other languages.
According to Klapow, memes and jokes serve two purposes. "They often connect us in a humorous way to the not so humorous situations we may find ourselves in at work. They are a way of both acknowledging the difficulties we may be having … and pointing out the absurdity of them in a funny way."
He added that they can also "validate our frustrations and irritations but at the same time put them into perspective by lowering the negative emotional intensity. In this way, they can at times help us to communicate our frustrations or desire for change."
Humor as we know it has been part of our behavioral repertoire for thousands of years. While we often think that memes are a relatively new phenomenon in this field, Bradley E. Wiggins, Ph.D., an associate professor of Media Communications at Webster Vienna Private University, previously told us they have been around for longer than people think.
"Memes have consistently been a part of online parlance, something academics refer to as 'digital culture', for nearly 20 or more years," he told Bored Panda. "The difference in awareness is due to the proliferation of a massive amount of content created, consumed and shared widely nearly all the time especially since cellular networks have increased the capacity for bandwidth."
"Their apparent increase in popularity stems from the truncated form of communication they allow. In other words, memes help you to keep it simple and short, but not without a possibly huge impact in terms of humor, but most interestingly because of resonance with an issue, a person or group, etc. at a given point in time," he added.
It seems that memes can help us form and feel part of a bigger supportive community. So if you’re looking for new ways to blow off some steam and create stronger relationships with your roommates, classmates, or even teachers, scroll through what the 'Educational Memes' page has to offer and feel the miracles of genuine laughter come knocking at your door.
Many Asian temples/ places of worship cook massive vats of meals every day for people to eat for free (anyone, regardless of religion). Some places serve 10,000+ people a day. There are some crazy videos on YouTube of some places and the sheer amount of food produced on a daily basis. They have 100's of volunteers a day alongside a core paid team.
Pff i put like three days prior cause i sure as s**t don't remember all the bull s**t I've just written down
Yes also known as a compound fracture. Very painful and ugly to look at.
Oh I don't mind this one bit. When I need to submit a paper, I usually take the day off and my bosses understands that (great fellas). So I'll just catch up on some sleep and then go back to work to repay that flexibility. I used to work odd hours around my classes.
People have dream jobs??? Guess I'm the only one who still has no idea what to do with life LMAO
And then Germany said f**k you and we said f**k you louder…..and then the soviets

i proooooobably should be studying for exams but this is also educational right?
Pro tip: the order changes. I have no idea how the last two as of now could possibly be offensive. If you want to point out problems, you're better off specifing which ones, not the ones in which places.
