The same internet jokes can get stale when repeated too often. Sometimes, you get so used to ‘ordinary’ humor that you need something a bit more ‘out there’ to make you laugh. Luckily, social media is full of bizarre content to keep you amused and confused.
The ‘Pinnacle of Cynical’ (aka ‘I don't like anything, I don't go outside’) Facebook page is a repository for weird, random, unhinged, and slightly edgy memes, and we’ve collected the best ones to share with you. Check them out if you’re missing some chaos in your life.

While there are some things that you can do to help your content go viral, luck plays a significant role in online fame. There are lots of variables that are simply out of your control.
That being said, quality and effort will often be appreciated by your audience.
For instance, people will often resonate with content that evokes emotional responses, like surprise, positivity, happiness, shock, and being awed. Then, they’ll want to engage with that content and share it with others.
Humor is a great way to capture social media users’ attention. That being said, you won’t win over everyone. People have different senses of humor, after all.
Some folks might enjoy dad jokes and generic memes, while others love edgier jokes, absurd content, and avant-garde social commentary.
So, it really helps if you know the audience you would ideally like to reach. If you post memes that cater to wildly different tastes, it’s risky. You might push away some of your potential followers.
Meanwhile, if your sense of humor is too unhinged, your content might not be as popular as you’d like.
No matter what you choose to do as a curator, you have to genuinely enjoy the type of content you work with. If you’re just in it for the attention and money, you might lose motivation very quickly if you don’t go super viral very quickly.
On the other hand, if you work with the type of content that you genuinely enjoy in real life, your audience should be able to see that passion and dedication.
No, I'm crying because there's a family member who's about to die and he doesn't even know it yet ...
Used to live 4 hours ahead of my buddy. Would text him Jan 1, 00:15: “This new year seems pretty good. 100% recommend.” Now I’ve moved, and he’s the one ahead. Hits me with the same message every year.
If you want to (try to) go viral as a content creator, it’s important to define your goals, do your research, and know who your biggest potential competitors are.
You can always try to emulate other popular social media accounts, but copying greatness often isn’t enough. You still need to offer your target audience something unique or deeply personal that they can only get from you.
I almost got in trouble because I’m at college and my mail still goes to my parents house. (It’s nearby)
Though there’s nothing new under the sun and true uniqueness is hard to attain, your personal perspective as a digital creator is what’s valuable here.
You can give your audience a specific point of view or insights through the filter of your life experiences. You can offer your followers a particular niche of content that they enjoy, or format your content in a way that few other people do. Or you can curate your content in a way that barely anyone does online.
On top of that, you need to be consistent with your posting and make sure that the images that you share are quality, not pixelated screenshots of pixelated screenshots. If you offer your audience low-resolution pics, you’ll only drive potential followers away.
In the meantime, it doesn’t quite matter how often you post, so long as you do this consistently.
When you’re consistent with your content, format, and posting schedule, your followers will know what to expect from you.
Moreover, you can never really deduce beforehand what will go viral. Some objectively awesome memes don’t go viral because of ‘bad’ timing or social media users focusing on other trending topics.
So, when you post consistently instead of getting demotivated by your lack of success, you improve your chances of growing your audience.
The ‘Pinnacle of Cynical’ page, also titled ‘I don't like anything, I don't go outside,’ has carved out a sizeable niche for itself over on Facebook. A whopping 1.2 million people follow it on the social network. Meanwhile, the page has also garnered the same number of likes. Many internet users enjoy the weirdness of the images shared by the curators, which is what keeps bringing them back.
I legitimately asked someone what gaslight was as i genuinely had no clue.
I don't quite know how to put it but this meme sums up conservative angst so perfectly. So misplaced. So out of scale for the effect of whatever they're angry about has on society (compared to the damage of trickle down or lack of gun control...sources of liberal angst). I merged into the fast lane yesterday with plenty of room and watched the trumper back and left of me speed up to close the gap, then get mad and flip me off when it failed. It's what makes the last 10000 ice hires so dangerous, they're plucking from a group of men that go through life with this type of resentment and angst. Not against legit injustices, but angst at how uncomfortable the world makes them feel (yeah, product of having backwards a*s conservative views; I hope it's never comfortable again for any trumper).
Once you’ve scrolled through all of these pics and upvoted the funniest and oddest of the bunch, we’d like to hear from you in the comments.
How would you define your personal sense of humor? Do you prefer ‘traditional’ memes or do you look for something more absurd, chaotic, and edgy? What kind of content on social media captures your interest the most these days? Let us know!
always. And I have a new rule: I only speak when asked. Get more time for drinking that way
my therapist was weirded out when I would answer ANYTHING without filter. when she commented on it I said "that's why I am here. I know I have issues, you need to know those issues. no sense in lying or cleaning it up."
Best way to choose between two nasty options - pretend that someone else is choosing for you, then see which outcome scares you more.
Don't know why y'all are downvoting @kikinlivi and @veryvenasaur given the NFL Halftime show headlines for the past couple of months. It makes sense that a Bad Bunny comment would end up on BP since they rake all their posts from Twitter and Reddit where it continues to be a topic of animus.
I saw a profile on Plenty of Fish once and the woman said that she worked out at least 5 times a week, sometimes twice in a day. She then clarified that she's not a gym nut, she just likes to drink.
I am an older person ( I took that "Can you identify these celebrities...?" quiz, and could name every one just from the photos ) and overtake most younger people because they are looking at their phones, even on the greenways and multi-use paths.
Or brain injuries. Theyre too quick with dwi stuff. Stuff I learned from my lawyer: never cooperate. Deny everything. Plead 5th.
Need to show more of this image... all I see is Super Sayan Vegeta doging...
God? Well, I tell ya, let me give you a little inside information about God. God likes to watch. He’s a prankster. Think about it. He gives man instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift and then what does He do? For his own amusement, he sets the rules in opposition. It’s fucked up. Look, but don’t touch. Touch, but don’t taste. Taste, but don’t swallow. And while you’re jumping from one foot to the next, what is He doing? He’s laughing his ass off. (Devils Advocate Paraphrase)
The US is basically asking for it at this point.
Load More Replies...The one with the lady stealing someone’s ashes pis.sed tf out of me tho.
Edgy and hilarious, funny-cynical? If BP says so, personally mostly meh, but you, as always, do you.
