35 Funny And Wholesome Memes That Prove We’re All On The Same ‘Ship’ (New Pics)
Interview With Owner
February is finally here after the longest January in the history of months, but winter is still not over in some parts of the world. Seasonal Affective Disorder (vert aptly shortened to SAD) can feel more heightened with the ongoing natural disasters and political uncertainties.
We're doing our part in keeping your spirits up, Pandas, so, we've got a collection of funny and uplifting posts right here. Today, we're featuring the Instagram page "ship" which shares poignant but humorous observations that are as chucklesome as they are wholesome. Check them out below, and keep reading to find our conversation with the creator of the page behavior analyst Monda Rrusti, too!

That is a much better birthday for the little guy. Every little brother wants a big brother like that.
RELATED:
Monda's page "ship" is almost 10 years old. It's been going strong since 2016 and has over 400k followers. But the page's format hasn't always been the same, and, more importantly, it wasn't always Monda's page! We chatted about the inception of "ship" with the creator, and she told us some intriguing things about herself and the vision she has for the page.
At the moment, Monda is the only person behind the page. She's a 37-year-old behavior analyst from Florida who lives with her boyfriend, three cats, and a small dog. "I have a bachelor's and master's in applied behavior analysis, and in my professional life, I'm a board-certified behavior analyst working with kids & families with autism," Monda tells Bored Panda.
Currently, Monda is based in Daytona Beach, where she has her independent practice. As you scroll through the content from her page, you might notice that she's always been interested in human behavior, especially in dating and relationships.
The story of how this page came to be is quite interesting. It turns out that Monda actually isn't the one who created it back in December 2016. "My brother (a much bigger memer with a higher following at the time) bought this handle @ship from some guy on Twitter named Satan at the time for like $800," Monda tells us.

TRUE AF!! if they're too proud to apologize to someone younger, chances are they aren't proud at all
"Since my brother was pretty busy with his own big following, and with my interest in relationships, he gave me the page basically and I took over it immediately," she continues. "I'm not sure if the Satan guy realized the potential of the short handle and this page being relationship-oriented. Maybe he just thought it would be a page about ships, I don't know…"

If God wanted people to use the metric system he would've given them ten fingers
Johnnynatfan 9 months ago
I still don't get why people in other countries give a s**t what system we use in the US. Seriously? Does it really bother you that much? Who cares? There are a lot of other stupid s**t we do that are WAY more important than the way we measure things. Have you seen who we voted for? Be offended by that and get over the imperial system hatred already.

Because there have been serious incidents caused by this, like airplanes running out of fuel mid flight (e.g. Gimli Glider) or NASA's Mars Climate Orbiter disaster.

You're going to blow their minds when you tell them how much a liter of water weighs.

The meter was supposed to be based on science. Some division of the distance from the equator to the north pole. They got it wrong by a significant percentage. So the meter is basically as much a human construct as the foot.
Lyoness 9 months ago
I believe the difference isn't doing it "wrong" per se but that metric is based on multiples of ten vs a variety of random numbers. In metric 10mm = 1cm, 100cm = 1m, 100m = 1km and so on. It's just more logical that saying there are 5280 feet in a mile.

5,280 was chosen by practical measurers who wanted a number evenly divisible by so many others.
Arthur Waite 9 months ago
I was taught that the mile was the distance that a Roman troop would cover in 1000 paces, and it comes from 'milles passum' in Latin. So, it's actually metric in design.

Well trying to teach the metric system to us in the 70s elementary school was an unmitigated disaster. Jimmy Carter tried to get America to switch. But teachers nationwide kept getting the same questions over and over, 'But how does that translate to inches/feet/miles?' etc.

17.6 Football fields in a mile. 5,280 feet. Football field is 100 yards. A yard is 3 feet.

"I've always had a mission in mind for this page, and that has consistently been for 'ship' to be a space on the Internet where anybody can come for a pick-me-up," she tells Bored Panda.

When you live in a Golden Age of Miracles, it is all too easy to become jaded and assume that this is the natural order of the universe, thus losing sight of the sacrifice and work that went into creating that Golden Age. After a few generations, you are well on the way to losing all of that, as folks begin to assume that 'this is how it always was, and how it always will be, no work required on my part'.
"Whenever I feel down or upset and I need something to distract me and make me feel better, I can just scroll through my own page and all the posts usually make me laugh or make me feel good, or usually elicit some other type of positive emotion," the creator goes on. "That is the main mission." When deciding what content to include, Monda most often goes for fun and cute quirky stories, funny incidents or funny thoughts, and self-empowering posts.

The lesson I take is that if I want the world to view me as healthily masculine (I do, I do!) I need to up my "act like a lesbian" game.
Monda also tells us that she wants "ship" to be a safe place where people can come to have a laugh without being triggered or offended. "I try to keep the space mostly wholesome, mostly feel-good to get away from all the triggering stuff on the Internet."

I WAS that professor. Turns out, that pseudoephedrine is REALLY good at stopping a runny nose but when they tell you to take three a day, they don't mean to take them all at once. And codeine really helps with the coughing but doesn't really take the edge off. Having a few cups of coffee might have been a bad idea too. Best class ever though

I saw a thing the other day where this guy says that if we were given a human to take care of for the rest of our lives, we would find ways to be good to that person, and actually that person is ourselves. You don't have to 'love' yourself, just take care of and be kind to yourself.
"I also try to keep in mind relationship-oriented posts, and I'm not just talking about romantic relationships," she adds. "I'm talking about a connection between two people, or two organisms because you can have a relationship with your cat, you know?"

Were you the nice, generous American kids in Germany? I guess even if you were kind, the German kids would have been Kinder.
Interestingly, "ship" has helped Monda in her own romantic life as well. The page is where she met her current boyfriend about four years ago! "He responded to one of my stories with a meme from 'The Office,' I thought he was cute, and the rest is history! We moved states over the years and now live together in Daytona Beach by the ocean." So, memes bring people together quite literally, it seems!

... And THAT is why James Bond always gets Three-Star gourmet service in every restaurant in the world. They all think he's a Michelin reviewer!
Although now "ship" is mostly just memes and funny posts, back in the day, Monda would give relationship advice to her followers as well. Unfortunately, during COVID-19, she just had too much on her plate and had to stop. "It was too much work for me, since I've always worked in my daily profession too," she says. "I would like to resume that again eventually."

So, Pandas, which quirky stories from "ship" did you like the most? Do you have any funny or wholesome relationship stories to share with us? Let us know in the comments! And if you want to see more from Monda's page, check out our previous article about her page or give her a follow on Instagram!

I watch Studio Ghibli movies to recharge my soul. (Well - all but one; you can probably guess which one. But, to be fair, that one wasn't directed by Miyazaki.)

My slightly autistic trait as a child was walking round the Reptile House and Aquarium at London Zoo babbling away happily to my father about snakes and fish like a small version of human Wikipedia. One day I turned round and realised I'd been followed by a group of American high school kids who insisted I carry on as I'd unintentionally given them most of the answers to a quiz sheet they had to fill out...one of my proudest moments as a veeeeeery odd 7yr old.
