While there might be a limit to what can and can’t be a meme, it seems that, collectively, we have yet to find it. The truth is that years and years of engaging with internet humor has allowed people to slowly but surely look at every bit of human experience through the lens of “what sort of meme can I make this into?”
The “More Stupidity Should Be Painful” Facebook Group is dedicated to memes and posts about human stupidity and other often relatable topics. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your thoughts in the comments below.

I went to someone's leaving party last week. At the end of the party I went to help clear up. The guest of honour was at the sink with the tea towel drying off the newly washed dishes. I said he shouldn't be doing that, since it was all for him. He is a decent bloke and said he didn;t mind. My reply? "It's your party, you can dry if you want to!" I will never tell a better joke. Only three people heard it.....

Load More Replies...How ignorantly rude! Pigs are not filthy, smelly animals. They are intelligent and playful. I'd much rather my neighbor was a pig instead of the cretins who reside here.
Pigs are VERY clean animals. The reason they roll around in mud, and sit or lie in mud, when they're outside is so the mud protects their skin from the sun's rays.
They make lovely house pets, trainable and friendly, affectionate and smart. Only real problem is they become huge adult animals...difficult in city housing. Know someone who had one, was a sweetie but getting her out, on a leash, for daily walks , etc....became a real problem with her ability to cope wiih stairs, steps. Grew too big to carry upstairs and down. Eventually given to a country small farm family, where she was loved and could be herself. Even the Korean Pigmy sized pigs become relatively huge, very heavy, and since they are intelligent enough to grow to become a real l charming and loving pet , they really suffer when they must be rehomed.. just not a good idea.
That's why memes feel so accessible: they're reacting to collective experiences, feelings, and pop culture moments in a fast, clever bundle that encourages a moment of solidarity. Memes reduce complex concepts or feelings into tidy, snappy images using common templates that specifically tackle common irritations, in-jokes, and timely situations.
Because they require minimal effort to understand yet echo our own thoughts, memes foster a sense of belonging and validation, reminding us that we’re not alone in life’s little absurdities. After all, memes function by encoding emotions we've all experienced, Monday morning anxiety, deadline panic, or nostalgia for what used to be. They magnify minor annoyances with exaggeration (e.g., "When you spill coffee on your shirt five minutes before a meeting"), making personal frustration shared laughter.
Oldie but goodie. I think there is one about locked outhouses out there somewhere.

That graph suggests some bears should be able to pass a degree course. Never heard a bear quote Shakespeare... yet.
Load More Replies...Last time Jehovah Witnesses knocked at my door I had so many questions for them about their religion that they couldn't wait to get away from me, then have never been back, job done 🙏
The real reason the send JW to witness is not to get converts, it's to teach young JW's that the outside world is hostile and will treat them poorly so they better stay in their cult. The kindest thing you can do it's be polite to the jw's! Let them know the world outside their religion isn't as evil as they're brainwashed to believe

That affective shock gives immediate solidarity: seeing your exact feeling reflected back at you can be strangely comforting and cathartic. In their nature, memes rely on common experience. From juggling several Zoom meetings at home to dealing with sibling conflict, memes give voice to common situations everyone recognizes on the spot.
I am currently waiting for the episode I am watching to end so I can hang out my washing, so this was a good reminder!

By speaking about the things that occur daily, waiting for your pizza to get delivered, losing your keys, or buffering video, memes validate personal experience as universal fact, creating instant resonances between strangers. The hallmark of an accessible meme is brevity. A single picture or brief video clip with a snappy caption is all it takes to deliver layers of meaning without needing attention spans of a few seconds at most.

This parsimony of language is well adapted to quick digital scrolling, delivering a passing laugh or wince of recognition and then freedom to continue. Memes use well-established templates, "Distracted Boyfriend," "Expanding Brain," or simply reaction shots, that carry pre-loaded meaning.

Children often develop the same fears/phobias as their primary guardian has because it's learned behavior. My mother was terrified of spiders, so I developed the same fear. The cure? I took a shortcut through campus that brought through a tunnel that was covered with webs and spiders. The first time was terrifying, but repeated go-throughs brought an appreciation of these mighty little arachnids.

Wolf spiders get treated like royalty around my place. They're the cheapest pest controller you can't buy.
When a standard image turns see-something-new with new text, the brain instantly recognizes it, freeing up mental space to savor the joke rather than decode its structure. This pictorial shorthand accelerates understanding and makes the content feel "inside" rather than enigmatic.
Women will never understand how joyful it makes us to unsnap your bra, whip it off, fling it across the room, then look at the magnificence.
Ironically enough, only the women in my life ask why I stopped wearing bras. First of all, no one carries a holster when they don't have a gun to put in it. Second of all, what are you new?

Every meme community will develop its own slang, variations, and inside jokes, highlighting a collective sense of membership among members. A tech-support meme community can joke about blue-screen crashes, while pet-owners' communities share cat-and-dog humor. Enjoyment of such inside references becomes a marker of in-group membership, and this makes community ties stronger and more enthusiastic about content shared by those "in the know."

Memes evolve rapidly, reacting to news, trends, and pop moments almost in real-time. A TV moment or celebrity blunder that goes viral becomes a blueprint within hours, riding the wave of collective focus. It is this promptness that makes memes fresh and on the move, if you're a late arrival to the punchline, the joke's already stale, so much so that the feeling of being up-to-date when you finally get it adds to the sense of community.
Yeah! Walking is just as good as running.

In times of anxiety, pandemics, political turmoil, personal traumas, memes are employed for mass coping. By capturing worry or loss in illogical humor, groups process difficult emotions in community, reducing loneliness. Educational memes even evolved as a response to negativity, offering good, empathetic matter that inspires resilience and hope.

I hate dead animals in the house. Almost as much as I hate trophy hunters.
Mounting k**l on the walls has never been an aesthetic choice for me despite all the years I hunted. It's actually very perverse.
I can only hope thes two fed a family a years worth of protein. There is no other valid reason to hunt them. And I have known msny people who needed to get a deer to feed his family. There is NO other valid reason to hunt. Wild animals prey upon others, ..and so humans also hunt. ... To feed their families. And we thank the animals for that.
My mother is a teacher. Last year she had one of these gems on a form the parents had to fill out: "Marital status: satisfactory" 😆
What's sad is there are people out there that fill forms out like this.
Relatable memes thrive because they mirror our inner thoughts, social pressures, and cultural shorthand. They deliver emotional resonance, shared validation, and instant humor in a format tailored for our fleeting attention. Whether you’re laughing at a perfectly captioned animal GIF or rallying behind a darkly comic take on current events, memes remind us that our individual quirks are part of a larger, laughing-together humanity.
They make me doubt my own humanity , like I go through my day happily thinking I'm human then suddenly I get shoved with one of those and I feel like a replicant in blade runner

we use plenty of spices and herbs, beans on toast (the beans are slightly spiced) is just a quick and easy comfort food
Roast beef? Chops? The US doesn't really have their own food either. There is absolutely nothing wrong with beans on toast!
You're right; nothing wrong with beans on toast. And there is nothing wrong with English food. I've had great food in England. The US also has food unique to its regions. Yes, it is influenced by colonial presence, like everywhere else, but is unique to the areas it was developed. Examples: Creole food that uses French influence with local herbs and seafood, real, smoked all day BBQ, southwestern dishes based on native staples like corn, squashes and peppers. Pan-pacific California cuisine, etc. Both countries get smacked for having boring unhealthy foods, but literally every country has some blah staple. That shouldn't be what we judge them for.

I worked a whole day with a pair of underwear bunched up behind my knee in my leggings. No one said anything!
Who among us hasn't found a sock or underpants in our trouser leg at work? Another reason why line drying is better than an automatic dryer.
Well, at least they weren't a pair of her " Emergency, haven't done laundry yet " panties. AKA Grannie Panties.
My friend told me this little story: her husband went to the gym in the morning, and brought good clothes to put on after showering (they were going to have lunch with her parents). Anyway: he's getting dressed in the locker room, puts on his pants, and her red lace thong comes out of one leg. He's shocked and his friends die laughing - "Is there anything you want to tell us, bud?" and "Hey, it's ok, we still love you". But the best one (in my opinion) was a text from his best friend the next morning: " We were talking about you, and we all think you're very brave." 😂😂😂
I once did my comedy show with a black wrap around skirt that had WHITE underpants sticking to it with static. Didn't notice until I got home. No one said anything. geezelouise

Female here and not fussed about celebrating, but my mum always insists. Even this year, when my sister in law (whose birthday is the day before mine) is 37 weeks pregnant and not really wanting to celebrate either! My best birthday since I turned 18 was when I was 20 and sharing living with housemates, who were away for the day/night. I had the day off uni, mum was not around, and spent the day watching tv alone and eating a lasagne, fairy bread and croissants.

This year was the first time I'd ever forgotten about my birthday. Never, ever thought it would happen as I loved my birthday celebrations growing up. I read a lot of manga (yes, I am a nerdy geek otaku 😋) and so many characters have to be reminded that a certain day is their birthday, which baffled me. But when your days run into each other and even holidays don't matter, forgetting one's birthday is actually quite easy.
My family nor I could ever forget my birthday. My next-older sister's is the day before, her husband's is two days later, their daughter's is the next day, another niece's is four days later and her father's (now deceased) is eight days after hers. Mom's mom's was the day before the other niece's. All we do anymore is text each other even though we all live within 10 miles of each other.

Yeah, sorry, not me. Bloody idiot contraptions, and worse are the idiots who think they're so "amaaaaaazing." it's a bloody phone
Yeah, I almost fell for that one when I was 8. Common sense prevailed.
We just made it a contest who could spit the seeds off of the porch the furthest!

My nana once told me that you can get pregnant from swallowing a watermelon seed. Uh, you do remember I live on a farm, so I pretty much knew how babies are made from a young age.
Apparently there are cases of plants growing in people's lungs, not stomachs. Here's one example for those with strong constitutions: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2009/apr/16/urals-lung-operation-fir-tree
Well known scientific fact...will grow inside you...ummm ? Didn't you ever see that ???
take it a bit further Our teacher told us if you eat a wattermellon sead. That is how babies get in a girls belly.
my mom insisted that too - and sunflower seeds AND bubblegum was going to clog up my insides... none of the above..
Try three annoying dogs. Food, outside, puppy dog naps. In that order a couple times a day. I have a fence and leave the door open most of the day. The babies still p*o on my carpet run outside and quite this!
I have 4 cats and 2 dogs. The cats are the ones causing all the problems. My one cat, Ruby, a tortoise shell, runs the house.
Absolute waste of a perfectly good Monte Carlo

Okay, I was gonna leave a gross comment about the underwear on the bumper earlier, but I thought I would have some decorum, then I saw this .Hilarious!!!
My husband has fabulous long lashes and he let our kid put mascara on him once, she was asking him for weeks and he finally gave in, he could have his own mascara line
I used to wear glasses and I hated my eyelashes. I would cut them so they wouldn't gunk up the insides of the lenses.
Oh please. I don't have to think it. I know it just ain't the case, sadly.

Y'all are seriously missing out by not having seen The Matrix.
Load More Replies...I agree with this, I do not agree with the new trend of men shaving off their eyelashes because it's too feminine.
Agreed. Stupidly dangerous. And so many guys won't go to the doctor either, so if something happens to their eyes...there's that.

There's an old joke, Pavlov is having a drink at the pub after work, the phone rings. D**n he exclaims, I forgot to feed the dogs
This is the whole basis of CBT. When the dark feelings come, start to think of something less negative, less anxiety inducing. Over time the brain will react more positively, like Pavlov's dogs their minds immediately react in the way they've been trained to. We can train our brains to react more positively and less anxiously/depressed. It's a sticking plaster, but even plasters have their uses.
My clean washing is on the chair since Friday, it's not a weekend job so they will be put away monday
My washer has a cycle for “refreshing” clothing, such as that on the chair. Obviously, I’ve never used it.

"Vacancy" could imply it's talking about job opportunities, in which case this is perfectly reasonable, or maybe it's a hotel and nobody speaks English or Chinese.
Racial discrimination, but only the Japanese know that. Very clever IMO
Dawn is not the problem; your lack of knowhow is. I have no issues cleaning this.

Load More Replies...This is partially incorrect. They had super cold water for many of the scenes, including that scene in the ocean for 'realism'. They had hot tubs set up for the cast to warm up in between takes without having to dry off.
And there was a Breton guy swimming in the cold water, saying "it is fine, come and enjoy!"
Load More Replies...The water was definitely NOT warm. Most of the cast complained to the Actors Guild that they got sick from being in icy cold water for many hours and for days in a row. Apparently, the filming of that movie was a nightmare for the cast.
cats are obligate carnivores. they cannot be vegan. they will get very sick. suffer for a long while (a few months, maybe a year?) and die a painful death. obligate carnivore. MUST have meat.
True. This is horrible. I’m a vegetarian but I would NEVER deprive my cats or turtle of meat.
Load More Replies...Several studies have shown that commercially available vegan cat foods do not meet all of a cat’s nutritional needs. It is a really bad idea to feed your beautiful kitty cat vegetarian or vegan cat food. Cats are obligate carnivores, meaning their anatomy and physiology are designed to get the nutrients they need from animal tissues, not from plants.The health risks of a vegan diet for cats are pretty severe. Cats are simply not able to digest a plant based diet. They can't digest starches at all, and even with supplements they are at extremely high risk of health problems caused by the diet.
Vegetarian for a cat? Cats are carnivores, there is nothing in that they would eat unless starving.
Vegans need to stop pushing their diets on their pets. I know not all vegans are like this. If you truly love animals you give that animal what it needs to live.
If I was a cat and had to eat vegan food I would look like that as well.
They need taurine. I doubt a vegan diet would make for a happy cat even if it’s nutritionally complete. Vegan cats who go outside have been known to supplement their diets themselves so a vegan cat is likely to be harder on the local wildlife,
And this (and a million other reasons) is why I will be forever single if anything ever happens to my husband.
I divorced him, I am single, and I plan to stay that way.

As a therapist I would have definitely allowed my clients to make a voodoo doll.
This is the honest truth. I had a counselor tell me that I should go live in the woods. Of course, this was after how much I hate people and society. Fair enough, I guess. 😁

It's ‘hello’ best response is ‘yeah, you?’ Not to be confused with ‘Are you alright?’, that's usually more serious
