Not all memes are born equal. Some are funny for a few seconds, and then they disappear into the void. Others stick in your head like a good old song from the 80s that refuses to be forgotten. They’re the ones that you keep circling back to when you need a good laugh. And sometimes, you don’t even need to look at them. They’re already mentally filed away like brain worms that you can recall for many years to come. 

Tumblr has some of the catchiest memes out there. In fact, there’s a whole page dedicated just to them. Aptly called Catchy Memes, it has more than 24k posts of pure comedy gold. The page defines “catchy” as attractive and easy to remember. From what we can gather, they’re funny, relatable, cute, and a little chaotic too… Bored Panda has put together a list of the best. May they serve as the gift that keeps giving for anyone who needs to bounce back from a bad day at the office.

    I've usually got so many tabs open on my phone that the little box that tells you how many tabs you have open is just a smiley face, because it can no longer handle the task of juggling all the tabs and has begun to dissociate. I also generally have about one billion tabs open on my browser on my computer at any given time. My ex used to critique me for this, but I told him it is like calisthenics for the browser. It is weightlifting for the browser. It makes my browser stronger to have 527 tabs open at once. My browser will be the strongest of all.

    I live alone in my house, so I actually have a "cats' bedroom" XD It is where Kohl lived when I was first introducing her to my old gray girl Wintressia. Later, it was where Rook and Lucanis lived when I was first introducing them to Kohl. Now it is the room of all 6 cats, because it's just filled with cat trees and scratching posts and a few boxes of my stuff stored in there, but they treat it like it's just more cat furniture XD Pretty soon I'm going to add some of those cat wall ledges!
