We turn to the internet for many different things. Takeaway suggestions? Yep. Carrot cake recipe? A-ha. To lift yourself up on a hard day? Sure. And sometimes, the internet becomes somewhat of a mirror of ourselves. Where we look at the posts surfing there, cringe, laugh, and go ‘Yep, been there, done that.’

This is what the Twitter page laconically named “Relate” is all about. You look at the Tweets and find the hilariously relatable situations and scenarios that hit close to home. The page is new, launched in September 2021, but with the rapidly growing audience of 61k followers, the chances are we are going to see a lot more relatable content.

Without further ado, I leave the stage to tweets and memes that poke fun at universally recognizable moments that are only human.

I heard that's the trick some websites use to force you to choose a new password when their database has been corrupted/isn't safe anymore

The relatable tweets Twitter account follows the internet’s obsession with absurd jokes, relatable memes, and digital humor. So in order to find out more about what makes such seemingly frivolous content so popular on the internet, we spoke with Lina Survila, the chief editor at Abstract Stylist. “Memes have become an internet culture, but they are also a tool of communication,” Lina said and added that a lot of content on the internet “is created because of the memes or are the memes.”

The success of memes may be explained by the fact that they help us communicate our emotions as well as to express more complex thoughts, ideas and scenarios. “Sitting behind the screen and trying to express your emotions might be difficult. That's why emojis and memes are there for us. This kind of content can easily increase your engagement on social media as a lot of users really appreciate a good laugh or an easy, understandable way of communication,” Lina explained.

Someone once pointed out that when you revisit cartoons you loved as a child, you suddenly see where the "villain" or the overprotective parent is coming from. I believe the example given was the Little Mermaid - as a kid, you agree with Ariel; as an adult, you totally get where King Triton is coming from!

“Memes can explain a lot of difficult things and help easily express your beliefs. Being funny with the memes can bring you a lot of attention. E.g., talking about some serious things like health, memes are very useful in describing why it's important to do your regular checkups,” she said.

Funny tweets are also the perfect type of content for sharing with our friends on the internet. “They're short, easy, and straight to the point. Sometimes they're used by others to immortalize the author's way of thinking. The famous ones bring so much attention that they become t-shirts, fridge magnets, or even posters.”

One week into getting COVID, even this is no longer an option; I used to look forward to going to sleep, now I don’t even have that solace. Every hour of every day COVID’s been kicking the f ucking s hit out of me. Everything’s extremely painful, physically, mentally whatever. I had a shower yesterday, that was a MASSIVE victory.

I think thats how it is with most people. Its impossible to be happy all the time... sure, for some life is harder and some have it easier - but i will never believe the myth about having a "happy life" (as a constant state of being happy). Just happy moments.

Absolutely me! But after 10 years I'm starting to suspect that doing nothing could be the cause. I'm not sure though, so I'll invest few more years into checking this theory. Maybe double checking...

Overthinking is such a blessing and a curse. It works out in your advantage 10% of the time and it's glorious but the other 90%....buckle up.

For some reason, I am WAY better at meeting people face-to-face than doing video calls and maybe regular phonecalls. The latter stresses me out to an unreasonable degree, and I don't get why. But yeah, text chats are the most superior form here!!

I think most people sound really extroverted online because they dont have the energy to be like that in real life. Texting "HIIII!!!!" online is much easier than saying it irl
