Over A Million People Are Cracking Up Over The Painfully Relatable Memes Shared On “Evil Kermit” (50 Pics)
Memes, memes, MEMES! We all can’t get enough memes. They’ve become such an intrinsic part of our lives that we can hardly imagine social media without them. The internet just wouldn’t be the same with them—imagine how dreary your coffee breaks would be… Luckily, there are a ton of awesome meme pages out there, making people’s lives a bit brighter with every pixel.
Today, we’re featuring the ‘Evil Kermit’ Facebook page, a project that’s all about posting funny, relatable, silly memes “through the pain” while “keeping it 100.” Scroll down to check out their best pics.
Bored Panda was interested to learn more about why certain content goes viral (while other doesn't) and how important relatability is to a meme's longevity, so we reached out to Glenn Geher, Ph.D., a professor of psychology at the State University of New York at New Paltz and a published author. He was kind enough to answer a few of our questions. Read on for his insights.

I'm slowly becomming convinced that most people's cats just weren't 'raised' right, for lack of a better word. Bottle fed kittens and kittens that were held a *lot* as babies don't act like this. They exhibit empathy and body language closer to that of a dog. There are so many 'typical cat behaviors' that I see people joking about online that are actually just signs of a poorly trained cat. You have to start with them young, though. Younger than you would with a puppy to get similar results. That's the difference between dogs and cats, not that cats are jerks and that dogs aren't. Just that cats haven't been domesticated as long and so they take more work to gear them towards living with humans. Unfortunately, by the time most people get a kitten, a lot of that critical, formative/attachment time has already passed. The kitten has moved on to the spazzy, ADD, play phase, and it's more difficult to get things to stick. Which means the job of handling the very young kittens falls to the owner of the original mama cat, who usually isn't the person who keeps them into adulthood, and they may or may not care.
XanthippeⓐWulf🇨🇦 🇬🇧 2 years ago
While some of this is true, there is a lot of this that is not (veterinarian here). Bottle-fed kittens can be a bit of a mixed bag. Animals tend to learn "acceptable" behavior from their parents or communal group when they're young. If you've ever watched a nature show with say, lions, you'll notice that when the kiddos get too feisty "mom" or someone will nip, pick them up by the scruff, or put a paw on them. Basically mama cat for "knock that s**t off you hooligans!" Because we often humanize everything, we don't generally provide these needed corrections, and some bottle babies can be naughty. 🙂Kittens will also go through a "zoomie" phase during which your cat may turn into a little snot- nosed punk, it's not anything to do with the owner, and everything to do with the natural hormonal changes they are experiencing (cats can impregnate/get pregnant ~4m old, so they "mature" quickly). Most people's cats aren't as bad as all that, mostly seems like good-natured hyperbole.❤️

Bored Panda wanted to know why certain jokes and pics go viral and attain true meme status while others pretty much remain relatively unknown. Professor Geher shared his thoughts on this. Chance, he said, plays an important role here, alongside digestibility and surprise.
"I would say that there is certainly an element of randomness in this process. Sometimes an idea seems great and, for any number of reasons, it doesn’t go anywhere. And sometimes something that seems just silly—like Grumpy Cat—takes off like wildfire!" he said.
"The memes that really take off tend to, I think, have two basic features. First, they are usually relatively quickly digestible, which is critical for any information in this day and age. Second, they provoke a relatively strong emotional response. Typically, this response is happiness and/or surprise—often literally leading to laughing out loud," the professor explained.

I accidentally closed the door on a cat's paw. She limped away with a sad expression and I wanted to fall to my knees and wail. She forgave me and her paw was ok. I'm so sorry, Aka.
GoGoPDX 2 years ago
Anytime you accidentally do anything remotely like step on a paw, bump heads etc., our dog gets very dramatic and will walk off looking all hurt, lay in her bed and refuse to look at you or accept any treats, no matter how much you apologize and gravel. It takes her a good 5 minutes before she will come back out and hang forgive you.

I once accidentally steppen on my cats tail. As it is very difficult limping on your tail, she limped on her left hindpaw to show how cruel I was. Unfortunately (for her) she forgot which paw and started limping on the right hindpaw. I managed not to laugh out load.
Meanwhile, we were also curious about what can give memes longevity, and whether a meme's relatability has something to do with this. According to Professor Geher, relatability plays a critical role.
"Relatability of a meme is also critical. Memes that lead people to say, 'Oh, I totally get that—that is ME!' tend to take off. I recently saw one that showed a stovetop and simply said, 'You know you’re a real adult when you genuinely have a favorite burner.' At 53, I have to say that I saw this and was like, 'Heck yes!!!' So yes, relatability is key for sure in terms of cultivating the success and longevity of a meme." We fully agree with the professor on this (and many of us probably have a favorite stovetop burner by now, too).
Professor Geher noted that the term 'meme' itself actually comes from the work of evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins. In the 1980s, Dawkins "defined a meme as a unit of cultural evolution that has the capacity to replicate and spread." Geher pointed out that the replication happens parallel to how a gene works. This "sheds light on the actual term itself—meme kind of sounds like gene!"
If you're interested in reading more of Geher's insights, feel free to take a look at the topics he covers on his Substack and Psychology Today blog.

The ‘Evil Kermit,’ aka @Justevilmemes, social media project has enjoyed a lot of success online. Over 1 million people follow it for the constant stream of funny and relatable pics on Facebook.
Meanwhile, the project started up an Instagram page in mind-January, and it’s slowly but surely getting people’s attention with cool memes as well.
The fact that so many people around the globe enjoy memes is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it means that you have a surefire way of entertaining the entire world with good humor, quips, and short-but-relatable anecdotes. It’s clear what people like if you spend even a bit of time just scrolling through your Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter feed.
However, here’s the catch. Because memes are so universal, standing out from the crowd becomes quite a challenge. If everyone’s posting the exact same memes as everyone else… how exactly do you draw the audience in?

"The pros [of internet fame] are that people are impressed. It also opens doors when it comes to getting jobs as companies always want people with a following as they can promote their products and services. And it’s often nice to get lots of engagement," the comedy writer told Bored Panda during an earlier interview.
"But the main con is that if you tweet something controversial and/or stupid, it’s easier to get canceled and receive hate mail than if you have virtually no followers. And even if you don’t do that, the level of engagement means your phone can constantly be blowing up with notifications, which can be very distracting!" she explained that there are certain drawbacks to being in the spotlight, too.

Yeah right, most people who are ugly in real life look great in pictures because all the filters.
Meanwhile, content creator, comedian, and broadcaster Trev Lewis noted that memes that seem to have ‘no context’ could be said to be the “purest distillation of what a meme actually is." He shared more of his thoughts with Bored Panda on how context, humor, relatability, and memes interact with each other.
"The standard definition of a meme is, 'an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.' So, if a meme is nothing more than an image, and it's entirely up to the audience to interpret the symbolic meaning rather than offering any sort of caption or explanation, this is the very nature that memes are founded on," content creator Trev said.

"It makes sense, then, that they are widely popular. If we think back to the earliest popular memes, stuff like the 'I Can Has Cheezburger?' cat, they were basically inside jokes for the terminally online. As the internet became more mainstream, so did memes, but it wasn't that long ago most people weren't familiar with the word and were often pronouncing it 'maymay.' There's something about an inside joke that makes people feel more passionate about it. I suppose it's the nature of exclusivity, or perhaps just the bond we feel when other people share in our niche interests,” he told Bored Panda earlier.

"The truth is there is no perfect formula to give a meme longevity. There are a couple of things that can help, though.

"The other thing that helps is, as this genre [of ‘no context’ memes] showcases, not relying on a written language to convey the humor. Slang is a lot like memes in that it's constantly changing and being discarded. A funny phrase today may be seen as corny tomorrow. There's also the language barrier. If an image is funny without words, that's a more universal meme than one that relies on English, Spanish, and so on. The more people enjoy and understand a meme, the more it gets shared, and the more likely it is to live on."

There's a term for this. l'esprit de l'escalier. Literally, the spirit of the stairs. It's in reference to the fact that you won't come up with a good comeback until you're already halfway down the stairs and it's too late.

Can someone comment on this: is it possible we have stronger garlic in Australia than they have in the US? I love garlic and happily add however much I need for a good flavour balance, but I feel like American recipes always ask for WAY more than needed - like, if I put in the prescribed amount the food would just taste nasty. Could their garlic be less potent?
Benita Valdez 2 years ago (edited)
Haha I just remembered that my friend was making a dish once that called for like 6 cloves of garlic and she used 6 heads. It didn't even dawn in her that it was an obscene amount of garlic because she was making garlic chicken. 😂
