Bored Panda got in touch with Sam Grannis, the creator and admin of the page and he was kind enough to share some more. Firstly, we were curious to learn more about how the page was created in the first place.
“I always loved memes, I was constantly posting on Facebook and was always told “I post the best memes” and that I should make an Instagram account dedicated to just memes. On top of that, I had followed a few meme accounts on Instagram at the time and noticed that some accounts were making money. I thought “The memes I post are better, I could do this”. And so I created my account in 2017,” he shared.
Well after my 2yo read this (on their own of course) they said, “well mommy, I would propose the notion that it’s not due to a mundane lifestyle. It’s more indicative of an insecure personality, a fragile ego if you will. They seek validation through technological services that connect humans to one another.”
Naturally, given the literal hundreds of thousands of followers, we also wanted to hear Sam’s opinion on what made the page so popular. “I have a knack for identifying what people will find funny/relate to, on top of that I also go out and do my way to post content that hasn’t been shared by 100 other accounts before I post it. So my followers know they’re gonna get hot new content on my page.”
As a teacher I make a point of telling the student teachers that they should always ALWAYS make sure they are on the janitors’ good side. They will not make your life harder if you are not, but, my goodness, can they make your teacher life easier if they like you!
"I've got friends in high places"... b***h please, I've got friends in low places. The people that know the inner workings of this place, that know everything that goes on and when... what doors are unlocked, or can be unlocked... people that are easier to bribe and can have a direct personal effect on your every day life.

Janitors are THE unsung heros of EVERY work place! Without them doing their job, EVERY workplace would come to a slimmy greasy halt within a month! As for shareholders, those are the useless blood sucking sacks of dog 💩 that we need to get rid of!
When I was a kid, we always loved the custodians; they were the cool adults that we wouldn't get in trouble with lol
I was a lunchlady for a few years and would fill in for the janitors if they needed. Gotta say, it was one of my favorite jobs ever.
My Sister lives in a very rural area and they only have 2 schools for the whole town. She was a custodian/janitor/teaching assistant and had to help cover both schools. She knew EVERYTHING about the Faculty, Students, Parents and the administration both personally and professionally. Hell, it doesn't matter where you work, I can guarantee that if you want dirt or gossip ALWAYS go to the housekeeping, janitors or custodians because they see and hear pretty much anything and everything that you can think of.
Janitors are VERY important and I have worked with janitors who were so intelligent and kind. The head janitor at my high school was incredibly beloved by faculty, staff, and students, that we had a party for him when he retired.
My now adult children's elementary school had two of the most genuinely loved janitors. One died in an accident on Thanksgiving Day. They weren't going to have the funeral until the day the kids went back to school. But the school decided to stay closed that day and all of the kids and parents were at the funeral. It was beautiful.
AWW, that was so nice of them. Please accept my deepest condolences and please send my deepest condolences to the janitor's family.

School I'm in now, cleaner is definitely considered a respected member of staff - kids even got her flowers for bringing in loads of mud after a rainy sports day. I have been in schools where it's not the case, but they are the minority here.
Be nice to the people serving lunch too!!! Every job deserves respect.
Always treat the custodians with the same respect as you do the principal.
When I started teaching, the janitor made twice as much as I did, and he was maybe ten years older. I even had my masters! Definitely was a better job!
"Ew he touches trash". That isn't bad at all. When I was a kid, I helped my dad clean an office building. If you want to know "Ew", go back in time to when everyone smoked, and you had to empty ash trays and wipe them clean. Your hands will smell of cigarettes for days.
I love ya but I feel like you missed the point of this post entirely

So we asked Sam to give his best shot at breaking it down. “A good meme contains a funny image/video with a super relatable/funny caption,” he shared with Bored Panda.
5 hours of prepping, 2 hours of roasting, 20 minutes of plating... 10 minutes to eat said meal, 25 minutes of rinsing dishes 2 hours of dishwaser and 20 minutes of putting dishes away. Now it's time for breakfast! LOL!
It's the ones who didn't grow up with South Park and family guy who are offended by every little detail of their simple minded life.
“The image/video is the most important component of a meme, you can have an average caption but if the content you’re using is really good, it will carry the meme and still be really funny. If you’re able to write a caption that hasn’t been overused and is still relatable/funny and the image/video you’re using is great in itself, that’s the recipe for a viral meme.” Interestingly, the caption might be one of the oldest indicators of a meme, that separates it from a generic “funny image.”
At the same time, managing a page that posts memes might be harder than it seems. The internet is changing with content rules morphing year to year, often without warning. “Running a meme account has become harder and harder as time goes on, unfortunately. The TOS (terms of service) gets stricter every day.”
“Every piece of content I post is heavily vetted by me, I have gained a very strong understanding of what’s allowed and what’s not throughout the years. Stuff that you wouldn’t even think would be removed gets removed. Any big account that’s been doing this for a long time and is active works really hard to keep its page afloat.”
“I’ll just put it this way,” Sam shared, “If I were to hand my account to a random person, I don’t think the account would remain longer than a week. It takes a very strong understanding of the TOS to carry on. What sucks about that is the quality of content suffers but it’s what must be done to maintain your account.”
It is always helpful to learn some off-grid basic techniques. Since +/- 30 years more and more of our activities depend heavily on things circling the globe and can be switched off by the owner at any given time, without notice. Or fail, without the possibility to have a technician get it go within hours. Prepper craze is not necessary, but ask (grand)parents how they handled things before satnav and smartphone were a thing. And learn to read maps, understabd street signs giving directions and some basic navigation skills.
As a former wildlife hospital volunteer, I would take a goose over a squirrel any day. Squirrels are terrifying, and they go for your face.
That isn’t dumb for a 4-5 year old; it’s just the way they reason until they learn otherwise. Unfortunately, some people never seem to outgrow this level of reasoning.
I was at a friend’s house. He said “make yourself at home!” So I kicked his a*s out because I hate visitors. And that’s when the fight started…
My alcoholic chain smoking neighbor was the one most concerned with me buying myself a cup of coffee once a week or so.
I can't wait to pull that on my daughter when we are shopping tomorrow.
To save embarrassing Google searches - A group of men covering another person with reproduction juice.
I hope they were tears of joy because that joke is hilarious, particularly for a seven year old
I painted a friend a picture of The Last Supper using every comic cat I could think of in place of the people. Bill was Jesus & dressed as Elvis. I titled it “The Last Shrimp Cocktail”. - These things happen. And I would have bought that. I would have it hanging in my house.
