This meme shows a person holding a smartphone next to an ancient Egyptian stone carving with hieroglyphs. The arrangement of hieroglyphs (two eyes, a circle, and a mouth shape) accidentally forms a shape that looks identical to the lewd anime 'ahegao' facial expression displayed on the smartphone screen. The top text jokes that ancient Egyptians invented hentai, playing on the coincidental visual similarity and pareidolia (seeing familiar shapes in random patterns).

This meme features a photograph of a woman sitting inside a train next to a window, through which large, scenic snow-capped mountains are visible outside. The woman is wearing a low-cut white short-sleeved top, holding a light-colored bag in her lap while looking out the window at the scenery. The text placed above the photograph reads: 'She: Look at those mountains! Me: I am already looking at them.' The humor comes from a double entendre: the woman in the image is referencing the literal geographic mountains visible outside the train, while the 'Me' narrator of the text is using 'mountains' as a common colloquial sexual euphemism for the woman's prominent bust, implying he is staring at her chest instead of the outdoor scenery.

The image shows an illustrated scene of ancient Egyptian laborers actively constructing the Great Pyramid of Giza in a desert environment. Multiple workers are depicted moving heavy stone blocks, working on the pyramid's foundation, and climbing the partially built structure under a bright, cloudy sky. Overlaid white text reads 'How tf did they build this without any aliens', with the word 'aliens' placed inside a black box on the right side of the text. The meme humorously mocks the common popular conspiracy theory that claims Egyptian pyramids were too advanced to be built by humans alone and required extraterrestrial help, by contrasting the unsubstantiated theory with the clear visual of human workers performing the construction work.

A meme featuring a humorous comparison between ancient Egyptian worship of Bastet (the cat goddess) and modern cat owners. The top text reads 'Ancient Egyptians praying to the goddess Bastet'. Below the text is a photograph of a hairless Sphynx cat standing on a wooden cabinet, reaching up with one paw to touch a glass vase containing a tall white candle. From the bottom of the image, human hands are reaching upward toward the cat, seemingly in a gesture to either worship or prevent the cat from knocking over the candle. The joke lies in equating the cat's mischievous behavior with the reverence ancient Egyptians had for Bastet, a goddess often depicted as a cat.

This is a 4-panel comedic meme playing on a visual pun related to geology. The top of the meme has text reading "Geologists be like:". The top left panel shows a rear view of a curvy woman wearing tight grey jeans, focusing on her buttocks. The top right panel shows a young Black man with a confused, intrigued expression looking down at something off-screen. The bottom left panel reveals a natural rock formation of two large, rounded boulders positioned next to each other that look nearly identical to the buttocks shown in the first panel, with a woman leaning on the rocks in an outdoor rocky landscape. The bottom right panel shows the same man from the top right, looking at a laptop with a shocked, excited, aroused expression. The joke plays on the phrase "sedimentary smash": it frames that geologists, who are passionate about rocks, would find the butt-shaped sedimentary rock formation just as attractive as other people find the human butt shown in the first panel, with "smash" referencing both rock formation processes and the slang term for pursuing a sexual encounter.

This meme displays a screenshot of a Veritasium YouTube video titled 'How Were the Pyramids Built?', which has accumulated 7.5 million views over 7 years, with a photo of the Great Pyramid of Giza as the video thumbnail. Two sections of the screenshot are circled in red: first the video title, second a top comment that reads 'Well the pyramids were built before Isaac Newton invented gravity, so the stones weight wasn\'t a problem.' The humor comes from the absurd, intentionally wrong premise that Isaac Newton 'invented' gravity rather than discovering and formalizing its rules, implying that gravity did not exist before Newton, so moving the massive pyramid stones was not difficult, as a silly answer to the longstanding question of how the pyramids were constructed.

This is a two-panel side-by-side meme that uses an identical photograph of a blonde woman with an excited, happy open-mouthed grin in both panels. The text above the left panel reads 'guys when they see big tiddies', while the text above the right panel reads 'guys when they see small tiddies'. The joke relies on the fact that the facial expression shown is exactly the same in both scenarios, conveying the humorous message that men are equally enthusiastic and attracted to women regardless of their breast size, and appreciate breasts of all sizes equally.

This is a 2-panel satirical Wojak meme mocking people who promote the conspiracy theory that aliens built the Egyptian pyramids instead of native ancient Egyptians. In the first panel, a smug light-skinned Wojak with glasses and a fade haircut claims to a neutral grey alien: 'You guys built the pyramids', and the alien replies 'We didn't'. In the second panel, the same Wojak is now angry, crying, and gritting his teeth as he says to a smiling ancient Egyptian Wojak wearing a pharaonic crown: 'You guys didn't build the pyramids', and the Egyptian responds 'We did'. The joke highlights the bad faith and biased logic of conspiracy theorists who reject both the fact that aliens did not build the pyramids and that ancient Egyptians were the actual builders.

A two-panel meme featuring animated female characters in bikinis, resembling Daphne from Scooby-Doo but in more revealing attire than the original series. The top text reads 'i don’t remember this episode of scooby doo', humorously implying confusion about the non-canonical, provocative scene not present in official Scooby-Doo episodes. The left panel shows two characters from behind in red and pink bikinis, while the right panel shows a close-up of one character with red hair and a purple headband, facing forward with a neutral expression.

This humorous meme depicts a skeleton posed as a recent find at an archaeological excavation site, surrounded by small digging trowels on dirt. The skeleton is modified with exaggerated features referencing modern cosmetic procedures: extremely large lip fillers affixed to its skull, large silicone breast implants placed on its ribcage, long bright pink fake nails on its finger bones, and heavy dark eye makeup drawn on the skull. It holds a smartphone in one hand as if mid-selfie. Text above the image reads 'What Archaeologists will find in 500 years from now'. The joke is a sarcastic exaggeration of current beauty and plastic surgery trends, specifically mocking public figures like Kim Kardashian who are widely known for getting extensive cosmetic enhancements, implying that their non-biodegradable cosmetic modifications will survive long after the rest of their body decomposes to be found by future archaeologists.

The meme features two sections of text above a golden sculpture. The top text states, '*In Japan, broken things are often repaired with gold...*' followed by 'Me in Japan:' below it. The image depicts a shiny, headless golden humanoid sculpture reclining on its side with one arm extended, humorously implying that the 'me' in Japan has been 'repaired' or transformed into a golden version, referencing the Japanese kintsugi technique of repairing broken objects with gold to highlight imperfections as part of the object's history.
