Imagination is not restricted by time or space. The same can be said about memes. While today’s actualities will always get the most focus due to their relevance, there’s nothing stopping the meme time machine from going to the future - or to the past.

On this occasion, one Imgur user takes us on a journey back to somewhere between the years 476 and 1453. While the memes they made technically weren’t made in the Middle Ages, they certainly feel like they could’ve been, and their comedy is priceless. Scroll down to check them out!

    People always think they would be in the noble classes in the past, when in actuality aristocrats were a tiny minority of the population. Then again, they’re probably also the kind of people who think they’re the reincarnation of someone famous, and not some average man or woman—-or possibly a cow—-living an average life long ago. Noone, including famous people, can be reincarnated as thousands of people in one lifetime. They can only be reincarnated as one person per lifetime, so most of those who think they’re someone like (for example) Genghis Khan reincarnated are most likely one of his victims reincarnated, or weren’t cycling through a life at that time at all.

    I am not good as a "pick up artist". But I'm still gong to suggest to you wannabes that if you want to woo a woman, do not start with telling her she is TRYING to look good. Just a thought. That is all.

    That’s because it’s other people’s blood, not his. So physically he’s fine. He’s just not ready to talk about the rest of it, where he’s not fine at all, quite yet.
