Everyone likes a good meme in this day and age. From relatable to hilarious, we all enjoy sharing and seeing legitimately funny posts online, particularly if we can immediately save and send them to our loved ones.
The “Funny Posts” Instagram page is very precisely named since it does exactly that, sharing funny posts and memes. So get comfortable, prepare to chuckle a bit as you scroll through and upvote your favorite ones. Be sure to share your own thoughts and ideas in the comments section below.

If I bring you the breakfast into the bed, just "thanks" is good enough. I don't like to hear things like "Who are you?" and "Whatcha doin' in my house???"
The “Funny Posts” Instagram page boasts an impressive 3.2 million followers and is just one of probably hundreds of meme pages out there. There are no two ways about it, people love and absolutely crave new memes every day. A side effect of this endless drive to create more memes is the expansion of what a meme even is.
As the online magazine Built In noted, memes are now commodities, surrealism art, inside jokes, and political statements. Sometimes, a meme will fall into multiple categories at once, depending on who is looking at it. If you have ever explored more niche meme pages, you will understand what I am talking about.
It’s not uncommon for meme pages to have followings significantly larger than many world leaders. Memes are also quite universal, as these same world leaders might even be following and viewing them just like us. Multiple meme page admins have admitted that they really took off after various celebrities started following their pages and reposting their content.
While a common “fun fact” is that Richard Dawkins coined the term “meme” in his 1976 book, “The Selfish Gene”, the more modern use of the word comes from Mike Godwin, in an article he wrote for Wired. He defined it as “an idea that functions in a mind the same way a gene or virus functions in the body. And an infectious idea (call it a "viral meme") may leap from mind to mind, much as viruses leap from body to body.”
"Theft by finding" is a thing. Hand it in. EDIT: I am not a "child of God" btw. Morals are not the exclusive preserve of the religious.
As has been said, if you need the fear of an angry invisible man in order to behave, you're not moral. And for that matter, look at what millions of them do even when they think God is watching

If there's an ID in the wallet, try and find the owner. If there isn't, enjoy!
If there's an ID in the wallet, you find the owner and say "Hey, I found your empty wallet."

Spoiler: That "currency" is really those religious pamphlets designed to look like money.
In that case you burn the contents and find a good home for the empty wallet.

Many years ago I saw a man riding a bike and his very full wallet dropped out of his back pocket as he rode past. Tracked him down, this was before mobile phones snd found him. He didn’t t know he had lost it until he was contacted. Turned out it was the money he had saved to fly to London ant to get married. I live in Sydney Australia. You have to return it to the person who lost it. I do feel good about doing this and I hope this man is still happily married.
Why after reading that he was from Sydney Australia? I read the rest of the post with an Australian accent.🤣🤣🤣

I found a wallet with a huge wad of bills in it once. I also found an ID card inside showing that it belonged to a policewoman. So I flagged down a passing cop car and gave it to them. The conversation went something like this. Me: "Hey, I found this wallet." Cop: "Okay whatever." Me: "It belongs to a police officer." Cop: "OMG THANKS!" It was so funny how he suddenly cared. XD
Years ago I was driving back to work from my lunch break when a car pulled out in front of me with a wallet on the roof. Obviously the wallet fell off, I pulled over to get it but was unable to get the attention of the driver. I turned it in at the HR department where I worked. It turned out it was friend of my friends father. He was a World War II veteran who fought in the Battle of the Bulge. I met the son at a high school football game with my buddy. He was very appreciative, also a probation officer which might have been helpful to me a few years earlier LOL

Found $60 in the ATM at work. Remembered who the last person in the store was, knew he lived within walking distance in the multi-family dwelling down the street. Told my coworker I'd be back. Went to the house, knocked on the first door. Asked about the elderly man, if anybody had seen him, if he could come back to the store if he was missing some money just to tell us how much. (Turned out it was the person I talked to's father in law.) He came back, identified the amount and thanked me profusely. It was part of his rent payment and he was on a fixed income. I felt so happy I could hive it back to him.
it's mine that i lost and found with more money in it... In a week, there is no more money left
Mail it to the address on the ID or Turn in to the police but escrow the $ in an in trust for bank account. "In trust for John Doe" or whatever the name on the ID. Police not always trustworthy. Give them the name of the bank and your contact info then give it to the owner.
I found a wallet in a changing room with £180 cash, and a USA driving licence of a middle aged woman... Me and my 6yr old daughter ate well & were spoilt that week.. things were tight at the time & I was struggling bad, skipping meals myself to feed my lil girl... sorry if you read this ❤
Look at it for a moment. Think, oh well it’s not mine. Look away and keep walking. Someone else’s problem, not mine, and life goes on just as before.
If no ID in it, turn it in to the police. After so many days, if not claimed, it becomes yours.
If there's a driver license, or ID I'll find this person, and give it back. One time while visiting my brother in Florida. I was pulling out of a Walmart parking lot, the car in front of me had his wallet on the roof of his car. When he accelerated, it flew off! I tried to wave him down, but he didn't see me. When I got back in the truck, my Mom wanted it so she could steal the money. I told her No! What if it's all he has, and has kids at home? I found a credit card, and called the number from it. He came by a few hours later and picked it up. He gave me $20.00 for finding it. But, if there wasn't a license,or ID it would've been mine!
Look for information in the wallet. If nothing - put an ad out with picture. If they say it's their's ask for the exact amount. If they know - meet then and return it. Don't turn it into the police because they will keep the money and not try to find the owner. The police will vote on what to spend it on.
Search for the Owner or Turn it into the Police Station!! They Take Down Your ID & if it is Unclaimed you will Receive it Back!!
..... Anything I would want to say would make me sound bad so yeah........👍👍👍
Give him some money and try 2 find a way 2 show ur gratitude
there's been people charged with theft for turning in a lost wallet. that is all kinds of messed up. just leave it there and keep walking
No one said doing the right thing was easy or risk free. The question to have to ask yourself is, do i want to live in a world where people return wallets, or not?

We went to Nice for our 10 year anniversary and spent the afternoon at a lovely outdoor bar. The woman at the next table got up and left. It wasn't until she left that I noticed there was money under her table. €200. We promptly turned it over to the manager. Same trip we went to Monaco to go to a casino and I had went to the ladies room. When washing my hands, I noticed a diamond ring by the sink. That also was turned in. I'm hoping they both got returned to the rightful owners.
If don't find a card, id, license etc., just cash, the only thing you can do is count the money, wait a while to see if anyone comes looking for it, maybe ask bystanders if they have any idea who it could belong to and if one of them says it's theirs, ask them how much money was inside to check. If you don't find anyone, there's not much you can do, the money is yours
One day, years ago, I was walking home from work, and I spotted a wallet lying on the street at a crosswalk. I paused, then picked it up and looked inside. Money and cards. I was looking at the address on a card when I heard a voice calling me to look up. I looked across the street to a group of Ryerson University students filming people's 'honesty reactions'. A class in psychology. Tossed the (full) wallet into the street and went home.

It means you're not aware you lost it.

This reminds me of that one meme like: “Mom why was i named daisy?” “Because when you were born, and left the hospital, a Daisy fell on your forehead” “mom why was i named rosie?” “Because when you born, a rose petal fell on your forehead” “M-Mom?” “Yes, Brick?”
When we look at it like this, there is solid evidence that there were no doubt memes in the past, but the communications technology of our ancestors was, unfortunately, simply not quick enough. Add in the fact that in a pre-digital world, most people couldn’t “create” content, due to the combination of the costs, illiteracy, and lack of time, that it makes more sense that the internet was ultimately crucial for the explosion of memes.
We can see a sort of internal evolution in internet memes as certain tools became more widespread. What started as text over various images evolved into meme songs, videos, and really anything else a common person could get their hands on. With smartphones comes the ability for every person to shoot, direct, and upload their own clips, so the same is just as true for memes.
What really bugs me is when the TV show Mash started, it was only 20 years after the Korean war and that seemed like such a long time between the two. It's now been half a century plus since Mash started and I remember it like yesterday.
At this point, one can simply Google any relatively well-known meme with the word “template” and find a site that will allow you to turn your idea into reality in mere moments. As a result, memes are being produced at a scale never seen before, creating a sort of digital folklore for future anthropologists to sift through.
Exactly. It goes from talking about anime to my self hate and suicidal thoughts
God I hate people that never get to the point in the first place and type several messages before they arrive there
With the tools in the hands of the people, so to speak, netizens have really unleashed their inner creatives. As a result, more modern memes often engage with surrealist themes and contain various bits of image distortion for effect. At the same time, certain memes are so widely known that they can be simply alluded to through clever cropping and positioning.
At some point, people started to realize that in-jokes and referential humor can work in memes quite effectively. As a result, nearly every fan group, fandom, and really anything that remotely brings people together most likely has a meme page dedicated to it. More than likely, there are several, as schisms, disagreements, and a varying sense of taste take over.

As with everything popular and good, marketing memes smell blood and are all eager to cash in on attention and trends. You have probably already noticed companies using corporate accounts to seem more approachable, like fast food chain Wendy’s Twitter account “roasting” its rivals, to the Duoling Owl being all over folks' TikTok feeds.
"What do you look for in a woman?" "Two legs, but I'm willing to compromise on that". From the Vicar of Dibley.
Sounds like fun to me. And mainly this is hiding the below comments.
While it can at times be fun, these companies actually have talented marketing teams. The future of memes-as-marketing will probably look more like your drunk uncle at Thanksgiving, who truly believes he could make it as a comedian. So for the time being, it’s best to appreciate hilarious memes for what they are.
Necessary context, character backstory and vocabulary or history lesson
That's Rich Evans from Red Letter Media, a very funny movie-centric YouTube channel. They've had a whole saga about that photo.
And this photo was from quite a few years ago. Her baby is probably a preteen by now...now I need to go Google it
Point it out to your professor and watch him squirm as he tries to explain it away
But sometimes shutting down is safer because the words in the argument can never be taken back. And they cut deep and permanently into my soul. That was my experience with my parents. The s**t they've said to me over the decades? I wouldn't even say that to someone I didn't like. Anyways. That's my two cents'.

I think we can make a tally of which pandas are in happy relationships/happy singles and which aren’t from the comments in this list. >.>
Seems like 90 % of these were about (mostly romantic) relationships and/or kids... I was hoping for much more diversity of these so-called memes. Fail article.
The first few are very good, but halfway through it becomes a relatioship advice article - might wanna separate them into another article BP?
A lot of these just seem like toxic relationship traits. "haha girlfriend jealous and emotional roller coaster", "haha boyfriend dumb and emotionally unavailable" sounds like a nightmare from both ends.
Well, that was painful... The ones about "love" aren't even memes, they are just really terrible, phony, clingy messages that should never be made public... -___-
Eric, if you don't like it that's okay. Just move on. There's no reason to leave a rude comment. If your purpose in leaving this comment was to let BP know that this article wasn't very good, you can do so in a respectful way. You could comment something like, "BP, this article wasn't the best, IMO. I found the OP posts to be ____ because they ____ . Maybe next time you could choose OP posts that are ____ instead?" Something like that provides useful constructive feedback, rather than just being insulting.
