There is no denying it: Pedro Pascal is having a bit of a moment. Between his gruff, fatherly role as Joel in The Last of Us, those unnerving Merge Mansion advertisements, and that 'Nicolas Cage Looking At Pedro Pascal' meme, he's been all over ALL of our screens. Not that we're complaining. The actor is the man of the moment. People are proclaiming him both “Daddy” and “Zaddy,” and it's not hard to see why. Between his acting ability and kind, funny, and thoughtful interviews and off-screen mo…

There are some pretty bonkers conspiracy theories out there that are only convincing if you're stoned enough, but unless you're living in blissful ignorance, there are probably more than a few things you're a little skeptical about. In a recent r/AskReddit thread about plausible conspiracy theories, incredulous people discuss all the things they're particularly suspicious about, like dollar slice places in New York (are they a money laundering front?) and memes about movies and TV shows (are the

It's rough out there, y'all. And by “out there” I mean the online dating landscape . It's funny that as meeting new people has become easier (with the help of apps like Tinder and Hinge ), it's also gotten harder. While in the old days of Okcupid I was able to message a normal guy, and then meet him for a fun date, nowadays it seems like there are just four trajectories: Option 1) Play pen pals for a couple of weeks and then get unmatched for some unknown reason. Option 2) Meet up for a casual…

Here we go again. Once more we find ourselves smack dab in the middle of the week, a day many people here in the United States refer to as “hump day." Though both the days of the week and their assigned dates may be arbitrary markers, the whole annoying plight of being alive certainly is not. This is why it's integral that we try to find ways to make the whole ordeal a bit more bearable. That's where we come in with the glorious things we call memes. There's not much in this world that brighten…

Ta ta, I'm off to see Tatianna

It's meme time

My baby, my baby, you're my baby

Remember when Tumblr was absolutely chock full of p*rn? We do. And while we don't really care that that's changed, it does tend to seem like the Internet has, largely, become a slightly less spicy, sexy place. While we may not want to be inundated by graphic gifs or surprise photos of sexual organs, things do seem a lot more tame, and a lot more boring. The truth is, much of this is due to the very strict policing of Facebook , TikTok and Google. We can barely use the word “a**hole” without fea…

Small businesses are not an unequivocal good in society. Many small business owners underpay their employees, nickel and dime their customers, and, worst of all, provide a subpar product. We tend to look at small businesses as virtuous fighters in a world where every industry is getting more and more monopolized by the second. While I think that it's good that there are silly little stores that only sell sauces or socks, their niche uniqueness does not make them inherently good for a community…

Where were you in the year of our lord 2012? I distinctly remember that I was in an English exam the minute that the world was supposed to end. Luckily, it did not, and I didn't read John Steinbeck for nothing. For me, 2012 was the year my world went online. It was the first year I had unrestricted internet access, and I was getting exposed to more information than I could properly take in. I would spend hours scrolling through meme websites, looking at different variations of the same image ma…

People talk a lot of sh*t about “mid” things. For those of you who are unaware, “mid” is slang used to describe things of average or even poor quality. But we like to take it literally, especially when we're talking about " mid memes. " We see mid memes as the ones that aren't the funniest but still give you a little chuckle. See, these kinds of memes may not make you laugh out loud like some of the clever top-tier memes, but they still offer a welcome respite from the stresses of everyday life…

The "millieons" vs Drake is going down on Twitter right now.

Back in the mid-aughts, I was part of an exchange program that took a few lucky Americans on a trip to Japan for a few incredible weeks. It was a little nerve-wracking to think about traveling in a country where I couldn't read or speak the language, but to my surprise, it was incredibly easy to get around, and to ask for help (in English) with my timid voice. It seemed most people could speak English, and were excited to learn about where I was from in America. While there was anti-Bush graffi…

You don't have to crack open a textbook or a non-fiction account of some historical event to indulge in a little history. Right now, it's perfectly understandable that any of us would want to escape the present with a little trip to the past. But what if we told you that the journey through time could be one that is humorous in nature? I know, we're blowing your minds right now. But it's true. All you have to do to enjoy some historical teachings and humor is scroll through some history memes .…

It still makes me smile that "Goblin Mode" was Oxford's 2022 Word of the Year. Say what you will about British dictionaries, but they sure have a sense of humor. The idea that “Goblin Mode” is not a real word is simply hogwash. “Goblin Mode” is more of a word than the word “hogwash!" Words are invented all the time, and even if a word only makes waves within a small community, it is still a word. My family made up a term that I believe could gain traction due to its usefulness. My dad defines a…
