These were actually done by a female professional sand builder. https://www.today.com/life/professional-sandcastle-builder-janel-hawkins-rcna146476 This image was just stolen by a bot account that added the controversial text.

Girlfriend has poor taste in sand sculptures. He, on the other hand, is clearly a man of culture 👌

Ditch the Girlfriend. Ive been single for 15 years and refuse to date. I'm 61 years old and very happy. Why? Because of idiots like your Girlfriend.

    If you came to this article, you know what a meme is. But do you know how to define it? Well, Encyclopedia Britannica writes that it is a part of cultural information spread by imitation. Doesn’t reflect how we typically understand it, does it? The New York Times has a tad better definition: a piece of media whose purpose is to deliver a cultural, social, or political idea, usually through humor. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    One of the first viral memes happened all the way back in 1996. “Dancing Baby” or “Baby Cha-Cha-Cha,” a 3D animation of a baby dancing, hence the name, became a sensation in the late 1990s. Some say that this exact meme shifted the way internet users started engaging with online content.

    Speaking of internet users, Bored Panda got in touch with one of them, named Gerda, who agreed to share some of her thoughts about the topic of memes. 

    She confessed that while spending time online, she sees memes quite often. It could be because she follows some pages that either create or post memes. Or maybe memes have simply become an irreplaceable part of the internet culture. They tend to reflect current events and pop culture. This makes them a great way of discussing either lighthearted or serious topics in a relatable and captivating way.

    Gerda also said that “Relatable feelings can be communicated through memes in a way that many understand.” After all, some say that humor is a universal language, right? 

    Serious ideas can be expressed through memes as well. In fact, there have been many times when they have been used as a political tool. The most current major example is Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign. When British singer Charli XCX tweeted that “Kamala IS brat,” the Harris campaign’s official Twitter page didn’t wait long before changing their backdrop to symbolize brat green.

    For context, “Brat” is a dance and electronic pop album by the mentioned singer. The green color used for the album's cover became its signature color, and the album name became a synonym for accepting imperfections and owning your authentic self. The album took the music world and internet by storm, becoming a relatable and even politically usable meme.

    Gerda agrees that memes are an irreplaceable part of internet culture. In her opinion memes are the things that drastically shape the way the internet is. “Without them, it wouldn’t be the same.”

    She also noted that memes, or more specifically their formats, tend to have different lifespans. While some, like Drake from the “Hotline Bling” music video or the car scene from “Umbrella Academy,” are still used years after their creation, others live way shorter. Yet, that doesn’t mean that they aren’t important for the overall internet culture. 

    As the answers on this Quora thread suggest, memes are here to stay. This brings us to the meme account on Instagram that’s currently called “Lasting Meme.” While we cannot guarantee how long the memes shared on this page will last, we can guarantee that they’re funny. And sometimes that’s all we want from a meme, isn’t it?

    I did it a few years ago (when I was about 40-42.) A man looking like a real, old-fashioned village idiot tried to befriend me. I directed him to my mother to ask for her permission. My maneuver succeded.

    I'd prefer this. Just before I started grade 6, they took out the grade 6 playground, with really tall monkey bars and old school climbing frame, and replaced it with a prep (kindergarten) playground. Grade 6s had to play on another smaller playground (also new) with the 3-5s.

    We used to have to sit in the car while our mother went shopping. I would start fights just to cut the boredom, and my brother was older and would just cream me. It taught me that it is more enjoyable to be beaten bloody than to sit and wait for somebody.
