Am I the only one who can't stand memes??

After watching my husband go through all these weird pictures/posts/jokes with memes and the like.. I find myself so utterly annoyed I can't even sleep.  ... grrr.  Sometimes I feel like I must be the only person anymore who just doesn't find 99% of them funny.  And staring blankly at my hubby just gets me an "explanation" of why they're funny - which never seems to help.. so I've learned to just chuckle for half a second and he's satisfied I "got it".  It's not that I don't get the jokes - I do.  It's not that I don't have a sense of humor.. I do.  Rather sarcastic, quirky, often dry, and usually involving taking things literally or hearing them wrong simply because I can.  😉  It's just that these "memes" are usually so stupid they simply cease to amuse.  (Probably this also correlates to my problems with a good portion of today's (and yesterday's) "comedy" movies and 80-90% of sitcoms. .. perhaps more..)  Granted, I realise that is simply my opinion.  Most people seem to find all that stuff incredibly funny, and I at least put on a good face for it.. but some days.. inside, I'm simply seething with the need to scream.  Now, however, that's not to say I don't find some of today's stranger "geeky" internet trends darn funny.  ICanHazCheezeburger? cats .. that, I can look at all day.  Failblog?  You bet... Most of the time that's funny.  I've even been "converted" to actually watching - and laughing my rear off at the "Jacka$$" films.  (Although they're still incredibly stupid.. haha)..   But memes?  Count me out.  Sorry hubby.. and the rest of the world.  Re-roll.  Format, Reinstall.  Something similar.  But please, get rid of them!!  🙂

I am a 45 year old American wife, mother, and gamer. I’ve lived in the Midwest most of my life, and enjoy it for the changing seasons. My favorite movie is Labyrinth, my favorite game is Sims 4, and I have tattoos related to both. My favorite colors are purple, red, and green. When I’m not playing games (which is rare) I also enjoy reading and crafting. I’m also an animal lover, and have had many types of pets over the years. Currently, I have a dog named Cassie who is a Jack Russel / Beagle mix and three young fancy rats (all of whom are rescues). I run this Sims 4 Blog where I post screenshots and stories about the different challenges I play. Also here are the Sims 4 challenges I've written, and a place for me to store all the Sims 4 knowledge I've gotten over the years. I am also a Sims 4/variety streamer on Twitch for my mental health, fun, and to meet new people. I have also recently been accepted to the EA Creator Network, which is a dream come true! I look forward to meeting you!
