Toddlers? Forth into battle all the same! Let them feel the edge of my blade!

These jokes were writing themselves for a while.

Conjugation problem, hyphen problem... correct all of the English.

As much as I love and miss Europe, I can't stand European politicians' arrogance against their own people. Yes, there's a discussion to be had about undemocratic judges in America also trying to subvert the will of the people, but in the States, the attempted subversion is more subtle and insidious, cloaked in the pious nonsense of "stopping an authoritarian." In Europe, the politicians simply ignore election results (that reflect the wishes of the people) and do whatever they want. Watch Michael Heaver on this subject.

Mine, too. This never even occurred to me.

Either/or works best with parallel structure. Rewrite the sentence.
Right now, the clunky structure is: They're either [present participle], or they're [noun phrase].

Remember the old "Leave Britney alone!" guy?

For those few old farts who still don't know what deadnaming is: it's when a guy named Robert undergoes a trans procedure (surgery, hormones, etc.), renames himself Roberta, and gets called "Robert" by an old friend who can't let go of Roberta's original (and still chromosomal) self. Calling Roberta "Robert" is deadnaming because the old self is presumably dead.

I prefer my memes not to be cut off on the right side.

Comma. Period. Where? Why?

Correct everything—the over-capitalization, the comma errors... everything. Otherwise, I agree.

Grow a pair. Yes—you, too, ladies.

That second quotation mark is in the wrong place.

I wonder if his gravestone will mention Trump.

Satanic Hillary Clinton as portrayed by Elliot Page.

  1. The roadrunner never bested Wile E. Coyote because he was faster. He bested him because Coyote wasn't nearly as clever as he thought he was. That meme kind of misses the entire point of the cartoon.

    1. Dunning-Kruger doubtless played a role, but the odds were always stacked against the coyote: even nature was often metaphysically against him.
