Bittersweet Memes That Will Hit A Little Too Close To Home

These nose-huffing memes will make you laugh and realize that you're not alone.

The internet is a great place for finding a community. Whatever your interests, with a few clicks, you can come online and connect with others to share your world—whether it be through fandoms, TV shows, books, politics, gaming, hobbies, or, more likely, humor.

Given that many of us have grown up online and, for the most part, massively overshare our experiences, it can be really nice to see that others relate to your feelings—especially considering the dark state of the world. This is probably why, regardless of our emotions, we end up sharing them online.

When we have good news, we share it with the world online; on the flip side, when we’re feeling down, we doom-scroll, which rarely makes us feel any better. So, if you are in a good mood, it’s probably best to take advantage of it, get off your phone, go outside, and embrace the day.

But if you’re in a low mood, this is the right place for you. Luckily, the expression “misery loves company” is also true of the internet, and wherever you turn, there is likely a joke based around it—so check them out below.
