There’s no rush that can compare to the average meme scrolling session. Rare is the distraction that gives us so much quick, easy access entertainment without even having to make a real commitment. 

It’s no exaggeration to say that memes have revolutionized our sense of humor, as well as the subject matter which we find most compelling when it comes to procrastination. Whether this is a good or bad thing depends on who you ask, and what meme you’re looking at, but there’s no denying that there’s no coming back from this.

In a way, scrolling for memes is like the ultimate comfort food. While we might not always know what’s coming, we know that we’re going to get the instant gratification of a couple of seconds of enjoyment, at least on some level. We might have a lot of better things to be doing than this, but they can wait.
