25 memes that spoke to our soul and left us laughing and nodding in agreement

Have you ever wondered how memes became so popular and if they started with the internet itself or if they have a prior history? Richard Dawkins introduced the term back in 1976 in his book, “The Selfish Gene.” Kirby Conrod, a professor of linguistics at Swarthmore College, said: “I would explain the concept of a meme—a self-replicating chunk of information—by asking someone about an inside joke they had with friends or an advertising jingle that’s been stuck in their head for 20 years.” A meme is an idea commonly shared by many people in a culture, according to The New York Times. 

Meme creator Saint Hoax has millions of followers on Instagram. He defines memes as "the ability to capture insight in a way that is in complete alignment with the zeitgeist." We all laugh at memes, they even make us think a little sometimes, but the best part about memes is their reliability.

Today, we bring to you relatable memes from the Twitter handle Women's Humor. Ariane Sherine is an expert on comedy and is the person behind Women's humor. Speaking to Bored Panda, she discussed her process: "I used to read the news to come up with ideas.
