This meme uses juxtaposition and wordplay for humor. It opens with text noting that the world is "on the brink of WW3", then shows the current viral Instagram trend: an optical illusion where people wear tight dresses and hold their arms behind their back, so their buttocks form a perfect heart shape when viewed from behind, appearing like a heart-shaped head from this angle. The original title "Trend I can get behind" is a pun: it means the poster supports the trend, and also references that you view the shape from behind the person. The joke contrasts widespread anxiety over potential global war with the absurd, lighthearted viral trends that still dominate social media. Two examples of the trend are shown side-by-side: one in a red dress indoors, one in a pink dress outdoors.

This image is a two-part social media meme thread combining text posts and a movie still. The first post, from user 'glamour__holic_mommy', uses the public discussion around the Jeffrey Epstein court files to make a joke: 'You know who wasn't in the Epstein files? Jesus. Follow him.' alongside a Christian cross emoji, framing Jesus as a trustworthy figure to follow by virtue of not being linked to the controversial files. The second post, from user 'adhd_memetherapy', parodies this joke structure, writing: 'You know who else isn't in the Epstein files? The Batman. Follow him.' paired with a dark, dramatic still of Batman standing on a destroyed metal structure with fire in the background (likely from Christopher Nolan's *The Dark Knight* trilogy). The humor stems from the absurdity of extending the original joke's logic to a fictional superhero, highlighting the ridiculousness of using absence from the Epstein files as a metric for being worthy of followership.

This image is a collage of three high-resolution photos of the Great Eared Nightjar, a real bird species, paired with a social media comment. The top photo shows the bird perched on a thick green plant stem, while the two lower photos display different close-up angles, emphasizing its distinctive head feathers that create a striking, dragon-like silhouette. The comment below the collage reads, 'The great eared nightjar is pretty much a dragon bird' — a playful, lighthearted observation that draws a visual parallel between the bird's unique crest and the head of a mythical dragon, highlighting the animal's unusual, fantastical appearance.

A meme consisting of two main parts: top text and an animated screenshot. The top text reads: 'When you are almost giving up but you hear your neighbours yelling "keep going, don't stop!" At 3 am (They even started clapping)'. Below the text is an animated scene from Dragon Ball featuring Goku, a character in an orange outfit, lying exhausted on a rocky, debris-strewn ground, appearing to have collapsed. The combination humorously contrasts the dramatic, determined anime scene with the relatable, absurd scenario of late-night neighborly encouragement.

A vertical collage meme titled 'True or false?' with the text 'AVERAGE USERS OF' at the top. It features five rows, each pairing a social media platform logo with an image humorously representing its 'average user': Facebook (blue 'f' logo) with an elderly person squinting while using a laptop; YouTube (red play button logo) with Patrick Star from SpongeBob SquarePants looking confused at a thought bubble; Instagram (gradient camera logo) with a serious/stern-faced cat staring at the camera; Reddit (orange alien logo) with a blue cartoon character wearing headphones and a headset, appearing intense; TikTok (black musical note logo) with a grayscale image of multiple identical human figures standing in a group.

A two-panel meme depicting a man and a woman in a bookstore. In the top panel, the man (labeled 'ME') says 'I DON'T USE INSTAGRAM' and the woman (labeled 'SHE') responds 'ME NEITHER'. The bottom panel shows the same pair: the man is focused on a smartphone displaying icons for various social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, TikTok, etc.), while the woman looks at a screen showing a nature scene (grass, trees, sun). The meme humorously highlights the irony of both claiming to avoid Instagram, yet the man substitutes it with other social media, while the woman's 'alternative' implies going outside/nature.

A two-panel meme. The top panel features parents proudly declaring, 'OUR CHILDREN DON’T USE INSTAGRAM. WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU.' Below this statement, their daughter is shown with the caption 'THEIR DAUGHTER WHO IS ADDICTED TO TUMBLR.' The bottom panel shows their son, captioned 'THEIR SON WHO IS ADDICTED TO 4CHAN/REDDIT.' The humor stems from the irony of parents being unaware their children use alternative social media platforms despite avoiding Instagram.

A two-panel reaction meme contrasting responses to someone discovering one's Instagram versus Reddit profile. The left panel features an animated female character with short dark hair, hands covering her mouth in a playful, amused smile, accompanied by the text 'i found your instagram'. The right panel shows a real male individual with short dark hair, displaying a wide-eyed, shocked expression, with the text 'i found your reddit'. The humor stems from the implication that Reddit profiles, often containing more unfiltered or personal content, elicit a more惊慌 reaction compared to the curated, public-facing nature of Instagram accounts.
