I think it should be scientifically proven by now that the closer you get to a major holiday, the more likely it is that you wake up with a strong feeling of apathy about doing anything except goofing off (or maybe a touch of festive baking). The fact that the Christmas holidays are right at the end of the calendar year only makes this worse. We’re ready for a break, and we want this 365-day time period to be over.

It’s frustrating to be stuck in this limbo. It will come as no surprise that at Memebase we offer one simple solution to it, which is to distract yourself with as many memes as you find humanly possible. By the time the big day rolls around, you might have eye strain, but hey! You had something to think about other than racing out the door at work as soon as the clock struck 5. Everything comes with a sacrifice.
