This is a 3-panel edited meme using footage from the 2011 film *Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2*. The first panel displays the small, mangled, bloody CGI creature that represents the fragmented piece of Voldemort's soul trapped in the afterlife limbo setting from the film. The second panel shows Harry Potter standing in the same limbo space, with overlaid text of him asking 'WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?'. The third panel shows Albus Dumbledore standing opposite Harry, with overlaid text responding that the creature's horrific state was caused by burping, coughing, farting, choking, and hiccuping all at the same time. The joke frames this absurdly unfortunate simultaneous set of bodily functions as an unimaginably terrible fate worse than death, matching the original post's title.

This is a two-panel low-effort MS Paint style meme. The top panel depicts a stick figure factory worker wearing a hard hat, standing next to a conveyor belt carrying red triangles, holding up an unexpected blue circle, with accompanying text expressing confusion: 'a circle?? in the triangle factory??'. The bottom panel shows the same worker shoving the blue circle directly into a square shaped hole on a sorting bin, which also has pre-filled triangle and circle shaped holes full of assorted mismatched shapes, with text stating 'that fits in the square hole'. The humor comes from subverting the common 'correct peg for the correct hole' expectation, acting as a relatable joke about cutting corners, ignoring rules, or forcing mismatched solutions to problems in workplace or everyday settings.

This is a two-panel comparison meme. The left panel displays the well-maintained, cheerful official Thomas the Tank Engine character from the beloved children's show *Thomas & Friends*, facing the viewer with a friendly, happy smile. The right panel features a heavily weathered, decayed, abandoned real-life prop of Thomas's face, which appears worn, skull-like, and dilapidated as it sits discarded inside a run-down concrete shed. The caption above the panels jokes that the character, framed as a real working actor, became ruined by drug and alcohol abuse, humorously presenting the damaged prop as the character's current state after falling on hard times.

This is a single-panel humorous meme featuring a real Dalmatian dog with characteristic black and white spotted fur, sitting on light-colored square tiled flooring. A person's hand is seen petting the dog's neck, and the dog is looking calmly upwards towards the person. A semi-transparent black text banner is overlaid across the upper half of the image, reading: 'Selling my cow he ain't moo'ed yet I think he Spanish'. The joke derives from deliberate absurd misidentification: the poster pretends the spotted Dalmatian is a spotted cow, and uses the nonsensical punchline that the cow (dog) is Spanish because it has not made the typical 'moo' sound of a cow, leaning into random, silly absurdist humor popular in internet meme culture.

This is a single-panel meme featuring Chuck Norris in his iconic cowboy role from *Walker, Texas Ranger*. The meme tells an absurdist joke playing on the classic 'Chuck Norris fact' trope: the text reads 'When Chuck Norris arrived at the gates of Heaven, St. Peter showed his ID to Chuck Norris.' The joke flips the expected scenario where a visitor shows ID to Saint Peter to enter Heaven, leaning into the long-running meme that Chuck Norris is extraordinarily powerful and intimidating, even to divine beings. The meme is originally titled 'Sayonara Chuck', referencing the joke context.
