I love me some surreal memes and anti memes.

I liked political compass memes at a time but comments always ruin those.

Bone Hurting Juice!

Being super literal about what is shown in an extremely cartoonish comic is just peak comedy to me.

[–] scytale@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 month ago

There are some very hilarious greentext out there if you can filter through the racist/sexist/misogynist ones disguised as jokes.

You can mention topics if you'd like too. Like MOTHS

Is there a fuckmoths community? Because those things are fucking terrifying, and there should be.

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I will personally sue anyone who dares make that community.

Infact I'll surround their house with lamps too

The Stop Doing X They have played us for absolute fools one.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Catchy songs like Shoebody Bop and Le Poisson Steve

[–] tequinhu@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Math memes (and science memes in general, when I can understand them)

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I read that as moth.

Philosophy memes I always preferred to science

[–] tequinhu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Philosophy memes are also awesome, though I rarely see them around

There was an incredibly small moment where people were photoshopping horses into unrealistic places. I loved that.

Horses are funny

Horse : how did I get here

A bit of a niche one: I am a big fan of the TTRPG Lancer, and a popular meme format is describing things in the game by cutting and pasting bits of the rulebook like a classic ransom letter

Thats the good stuff

[–] Kyle_The_G@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

[–] trevdog@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

the pack and trippin through time

I love trippin through time too

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

Absurdist shitposts and things that look offensive at a glance but actually aren't

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I miss r/okbuddyphd. It's possible to study so much it starts interfering with your ability to interact with normal people, who made more reasonable, balanced life choices, and that's what those memes spoke to.

Oh yeah I loved those!

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I particularly used to get a kick out of the fifthworldproblems kind of surrealism back in the day

These days, I'm less particular, just make me laugh

[–] capuccino@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Do you mean genres like political, tech... or genres like shitpost, brainrot? Or something more specific? Like memes of chairs... or... moths?
