The internet has given us plenty of things that can make us stressed, sad, or just plain overwhelmed. But it’s also given us a coping tool for all of it: memes. And thankfully, it never seems to run out of them.
So if you’re in need of a quick reset, these are here to do the job. This collection comes courtesy of the Instagram page @insta.single, full of funny posts that might just put you in a better mood for a few minutes. Scroll down to enjoy them—and if one makes you laugh, feel free to share it with someone else who could use it too.

We can in Australia. The loan payment is taken off before tax. (it's a bit confusing because it's calculated before the installment amount is calculated, but you do get a deduction.)
Sometimes, the best meme compilations are the most random ones. You never really know what you’re going to get, which leaves plenty of room for surprise. And since there are so many different things to laugh about, chances are there’ll be something for everyone.
That’s because humor is subjective. What makes you laugh might get a blank stare from someone else. And honestly, who even knows what the most universal type of humor could be. Dad jokes? Even those have their haters.
But here’s where it gets interesting: your sense of humor can actually reveal a lot about your personality. The jokes you love, the memes you share, the comedy stand-up routines that make you laugh until you cry—all of it might be saying something about who you really are.
And, like dough, when you are allowed to rest, it's usually just the prelude to getting beaten down 😏
I was very relieved when my last salaried position stopped giving raises after I left. In 2001, so no particular disastrous reasons, either.
Take self-deprecating humor, for example. If you’re constantly making jokes at your own expense, you might think you’re just being relatable or easygoing. But according to research from Western University Canada, people who regularly lean on self-defeating humor might actually be struggling with low self-esteem.
Psychologist Chloe Lau explains that this comedy style can become harmful, linking it to feelings of loneliness and other negative outcomes. While one well-timed self-roast can be hilarious, making it your entire comedic identity might be a way of dodging some uncomfortable feelings about yourself.
Then there’s dark humor. If you gravitate toward jokes dripping with sarcasm or cynicism, research featured in Forbes suggests this preference might connect to certain personality traits. A study examining eight different humor types found that people who scored high on traits like Machiavellianism and psychopathy tended to prefer edgier material—irony and mockery over lighthearted fun.
Meanwhile, narcissistic personalities went for lighter humor but mainly used it to make themselves look good. Psychologist Alberto Dionigi notes that people with these traits might weaponize humor for manipulating others and putting people down.
On a more positive note, if you’re the type who loves sharing jokes with friends and keeping a generally upbeat, humorous outlook on life, a large study analyzing nearly 12,000 people suggests you’re likely extroverted, agreeable, and open to new experiences.
The research, discussed in Psychology Today, suggests that certain personality traits are more drawn to “healthy” humor styles, the kind that connects people and lifts spirits.
I find it difficult to believe that there's anyone called Linda with a three month old
If you avoid offensive jokes and don’t use comedy to tear others down, you’re probably high on agreeableness. The study found that agreeable people naturally steer clear of aggressive humor because they value getting along well with others and maintaining positive relationships.
If you’re organized and responsible—traits associated with conscientiousness—you likely avoid both aggressive humor and self-defeating humor. Conscientious people don’t feel the need to put themselves down for a laugh or use comedy as a weapon against others.
It happened to us. The roughly 8-month-old, super friendly male got a 2-month-old pup, and he was super enthusiastic. They loved each other in the following 14 years.
On the flip side, if you score high on neuroticism (experiencing more stress, worry, and negative emotions), you might find it harder to use healthy humor styles. The research found that people dealing with anxiety and constant stress often struggle to use comedy as a positive tool or social connector.
At the end of the day though, we all exist on a spectrum. It’s not like enjoying dark humor or cracking a few self-deprecating jokes automatically means something’s wrong with you. It's more that if one particular style dominates your sense of humor, it could reveal something about your personality. So which humor style sounds most like you?
I've shared a kitchen with a friend for so long it's coordinated, like ballet with chef's knives.
And for some reason, they don't appreciate it when you tell them 'don't fucking touch me!'
I bought too many pigs in blankets for Christmas so I put them in the freezer. Guess what we're having tonight 😁
"Someday I'm going to use my *whole* brain and that day will be something!" ~ Me, two days ago
I also have one for my British friend, I call it the chap chapstick. Also one for when I'm eating Chinese food, that one's the chopstick chapstick.
"A s**y, romantic partner with French onion dip would complete me right now"
Mine is books, my handbags, often a pile of clothes and other random things. Sometimes it's hard to climb over everything to get to the clean side.
What's actually very amusing to me is that some AI has scraped my company details off LinkidIn, and about 3 people I've never heard of apparently worked for me 😁
...because I just remembered that I need it for that thing at 8 AM today 😱
I can't do that. Half the time that's what gets me out of bed, not wanting to lie there thinking about everything. It feels like at least I can make things better if I get up, but in reality there's just more stuff to distract me.
About time Florida Woman got a mention. Florida Man needs a break....

I really had different expectations for my life as a "millionaire". I can't even afford to retire.
All of one group and one from another, just to keep it awkward
Unless it is the full moon. Go werewolf and have the fur.
When you so fine you can just roll straight outta bed and still blow minds
A little birdie told me. And it was definitely not a raven. No, no why are you burning me
Sorry, BP, but I will downvote anything at all that has a Kardashian in it.
Man, before I got fat and food noise turned into a SCREAM I was like this. F**k I miss those days. Before anyone tells me I can have those days again, this is my second time fat, and no I can't have those days back. The fat can go but the food noise is forever, once it starts. I'm just going to die of a heart attack, like an ADULT.
That's only 2.3 kcal or a handful of rice. Now if it was 2300 kcal then it's a lot
