Our Loss, Comrade, and Other Memes

avatar

Greetings and salutations Hivers. The other day I posted some memes and that reminded me that I haven’t done a meme post in several months. Oh no! So today I thought we’d do another installment of You Should Laugh More and see some memes!

Research has shown that laughter is good for us. It has all kinds of health benefits — physical, mental, even spiritual. It lowers stress, boosts your immune system, and makes life a little more bearable.

And yet, most of us don’t laugh nearly enough.

Yeah, I know. Being an adult is rough. Add in the steady drip-feed of grim news, and it’s no wonder we’re all wound a bit tight. And that is exactly why we need to laugh more.

So here’s a little something to help with that.

Dad Language

Welp… they have my number. How bout that.

Introvert Problems

Not just introverts, I think, but most people these days. Funny how quickly we went to always answering every phone call even though we had to idea who it was to avoiding answering even if we know the person calling.

Old School Goon

To those who don’t know: Gen Z has redefined “goon” (and “gooning”) as a slang word for zoning out in a trance-like state during extended porn browsing sessions.

It definitely gives a whole new context to movies and TV shows that use it the old way… not to mention The Goonies.

Our Loss

Unfortunately so true.

What — another US company is bankrupt again due to stupidity? Time for another bailout!

Pronunciation Humor

You might have to be an English teaching to enjoy that one.

6th Gear

I haven’t driven a stick shift in years. Still fresh enough in my mind though that this made me smile.

And now, your moment of Zen

What do you think? Did it get a laugh — or just an eye-roll? Either way, I’d love to hear your reaction in the comments.

Some hilarious stuff! I agree, we all need to laugh a lot more. The world is full of too much serious constant information flow... Great job!
