Being a woman in 2023 can be both empowering and challenging. That's why we still need sources of laughter and inspiration, and @laughing.chicks on Instagram provides exactly that.
This account is a space to come together and look at the shared experiences of womanhood with a bit of levity. From navigating the dating world to dealing with sexist bosses, it has us covered with their funny and relatable memes.
So let's join the account's 454K followers and take a look at what content it has to offer.

We managed to get in touch with the person behind @laughing.chicks and they agreed to tell us more about running the account.
"Initially, the page began as me creating memes that I thought were funny," they told Bored Panda. "I was working and my work is very boring and I wanted to do something more expressive. So I started creating the page and memes."
"Over time, as the page grew, I realized that there are people much funnier than me. So I started curating more and giving them credit. Along the way, I have not only supported creators but have made friends such as Nina Marie (@ninamariedaniele) and Vinny Fasline(@vinnyfasline). Over time, I got an understanding of what my followers like and more importantly, do not like, and selecting memes is now second nature."
"I found relatable memes are the ones that resonate the most. [Universal topics,] such as complaining about work, or bonding with your coworkers tend to do the best."
However, the account owner added that the platform also indirectly dictates what to post. "It really depends on Instagram, they keep innovating and changing the algorithm, and as creators and curators, we have to adapt. For example, Instagram went very heavy about a year ago on videos, but now they have come back to photos and added more value to them. So hoping to keep staying ahead of the algorithm and making new partnerships with comedians to keep the page engaged and growing."
I have NO, absolutly NO problem with taking an apple really quickly and slice it up. For my three year old. Do I do it for myself?....... Take a guess.

Heck yeah! Peanut butter (or cookie butter!) on apples is amazing

I do this too! I like it so I can check for maggots as well, not that I’ve ever found one, but it’s so much easier to eat like that.
Oh god, ONCE I found a worm in a segment of a Cuties tangerine. I peel them into segments and hold each segment up to a light before I eat them now XD

Sometimes I chop one up and add it to a salad. There was a time that I would have laughed at that, but I was a fool then!
I prefer it soaked in butter, cinnamon and sugar and baked inside two flakey crusts.
I wanted to add here that it's pretty simple and easy to just make the pie filling! Takes like 20 minutes, after that time it's totally worth it if you're craving it. I've done it before and I will do it again

I like juicy apples. I do not like apple juices flowing down my face. I cut up my apples, like an adult.
Bad front teeth crowns had me eating apples this way for years. Now, I'm so used to cutting apples into wedges, I automatically do it even with my new stronger implants.
I prefer them peeled because the peel somehow comes off and stays in my mouth to chew and chew and chew too long.
I love to slice it thinly across the apple instead of wedges. I think it tates so much better cut across. I do the same with strawberries.
That is why I got the apple slicer for my kids. Of course it was for kids, not for me... But they still cannot really appreciate sliced up apple drizzled with melted chocolatte.
It is perfect and not so big commitment to eat the whole apple immediately
Yup! I love eating my ice cream with a tiny spoon like u got at Baskin Robbins!
Same! But now in my 40's and still do that. Then my 8yr old daughter asks me if I'm a grown a s s woman 😂
Okay, but have you considered cutting up an apple into small pieces with a paring knife, and then eating it, it feels so good.
Yes, instead of like when I'm 35, and have to do the apple cutting myself.
Add brown sugar to the bowl...then you get to dip apple slices in brown sugar. So good! (Or I might just be reliving a piece of my childhood. Either way, enjoy your apples :-))
If you don't sprinkle cinnamon and sugar over it before consuming it, what are you even doing with your life?
The only civilised ways to consume apples is baked in a pie, apple crumble, and apple cider.
No kids here... Single... I can differentiate between genuine kids issue and utter nonsense parenting.. I sympathise with the former parents... We were all there as kids... What i do not understand is bad behaviour and the reason we need to adjust. Seen parents bring kids to movies which are meant for adults to understand... Why? of course, the kid is going to cry.. or throw tantrums.. babysitting can be an issue... But we are not part of your deal
Ugh, I will have full on conversations with my husband about what the plan is for tomorrow. When tomorrow comes, he will ask me what we are doing like we never spoke about it. I even do the "look at me when we are talking" thing if I want to make sure he is paying attention, but even that is hit or miss.
If state law allows (some u.S. states do have regulations around burials) most mortuaries will bury you in a cardboard box. And for cremation that is always an option. If you are worried about a service, you can rent a coffin. Much cheaper. It's wild what you start looking into when you turn 40.
If only there were cheaper alternatives that would leave about $2000-3000 difference on her account. But hey, brand!
When you think you're ahead of the game, then life kicks you on your butt.🤦♀️
Or because you have no children, you can pay them to life with you and help take care of you!! Just make sure your siblings have more than one child!! Gotta share those kids!!
I try to get the boys together every 6 months, all of us go out, drink and vent about our life, good mental health and all that. Honestly though, trying to organise 8 guys is worse than herding cats.
Last night I dreamed that I drew a picture of a man with a unibrow and went around telling people, "Look, it's DoriBROW Gray!" I have never read "The Picture of Dorian Gray" nor seen the movie. In the same dream, I drew Will Smith's head on a cockroach body, and his feet were huge noses. What is my brain doing?! (I woke up and drew the second one IRL XD )
I'm a lifelong nailbiter and I got acrylic nails put on a few months ago. It was AMAZING being able to scratch itches XD but I forgot I didn't have stubby nubbins and literally scratched welts onto myself a few times. My cats and puppy liked the new "automatic" itch scratchers on my fingers as well XD
I’m 41 :( and I recently found a photo of my biological mom when she was 44. I look like I’m maybe 30. She looks like she’s a hard-used 70. Don’t do drugs and smoke and drink, kids! XD
Not even going to lie, the level of smarta** that I am...I would be that husband
you dont have to be drunk :-D i frequently meet people at concerts, befriend them on FB and never meet again but become fun FB friends.
Or stick a straw in your eye and pretend you need to go to the hospital
I dated a girl during high school once who insisted on paying for dinner, since she asked me to go there...which was fine, we were totally cool and on the same page, until I put some money down to leave a tip. Girl lost...her...damn...MIND! She made a scene, loudly reamed me out for trying to spend my money, and I got all the stares on our way out. And then we went to a movie following that, for bonus awkward! She had driven, so there was no backing out until the end of the date
