History Memes That Use the Olden Days as a Punchline
When I was a sullen teenager with a vintage clothing addiction and an ever-growing record collection, I would often find myself thinking «I wasn’t made for these times.» I likened myself to an old soul – world-weary and wise, with a timeless charm and worldly intellect. While some of this is probably thanks to living …

A Healthy Helping of Historical Memes
I was not a cool kid. Up until high school, my experiences with friendship generally started with convenience and were maintained by mutual interests. But because I was not cool, these interests were a bit unorthodox. I was obsessed with reading ultra-bleak history tomes, as well as even bleaker fiction. Much of my choices surrounded …

Nerdy Memes For Well Rounded Intellectuals

Art History Memes For Masters of Realism
If you think about it, paintings were the original memes. Past painters made realistic depictions of people with all sorts of intentions in mind.
