satire

Is it that hard to get?

We've all seen those insane college dorm room transformations floating around the internet now that we're in back-to-school season - you know, where a college student supposedly converts a hideous tiny dorm room into a gorgeous space that looks fit for a Kardashian. Well, people on the internet have started to roast these "transformations" and call them out for being fake, because let's be honest...what college student realistically has the time or money for that? 

Have a look!

For every action there is an unequal and opposite overreaction.

Donald Trump's former personal attorney Michael Cohen made headlines on Tuesday after he pleaded guilty to eight criminal charges, including violations of campaign finance rules, and the paying off of two women (including Stormy Daniels) with whom Trump had affairs. The latter took place under the direction of Trump himself, according to Cohen's lawyer, Lanny Davis.

Cohen could serve up to five years in prison under his plea agreement. 

While we wait to see what happens in the end, here are some satirical memes we've picked out for your viewing pleasure!

Need to peruse the best wares of Donald Trump memes, these tremendous examples should be just what you're looking for.

JK Rowling, the queen of drawing out random details of the Harry Potter franchise, is back in the limelight for, well...drawing out random details of the Harry Potter franchise - details that absolutely no one asked for, of course. 

She told Radio Times last week that Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald had an "intense and passionate" relationship that had a "sexual dimension to it." Of course, her actual statements got twisted in subsequent reports, but the roasts and parody tweets that have come from it are absolutely still valid!

Most of us are familiar with the satirical stylings of "news" sites like Clickhole and The Onion that bring us that hilarious political and social commentary we all crave from time to time. Unfortunately however, some poor dummies just never got the "fake news" memo. 

The following are those people...

Some people just don't understand the wonderful art of satire.

Come on, people. How much do you need explained to you?

"Every Straight Girl on this Site" is a tweet that refers to women who have positive qualities who date men with negative qualities. The original tweet was specifically about women who live in beautiful apartments dating men who sleep on a dirty, disgusting mattress on the floor. People on Twitter have since begun exaggerating the scenarios into complete satire, resulting in hilarity.

Remember to check your sources, or you might end up like one of these doofuses, getting mad over something that you didn't even realize was a joke.

Oh sweetie, calm down it's not real.

Either they don't get the joke or they don't want to. None of us wanted it to be this way.

If there was ever an appropriate time to utter the old Southern saying "bless your heart," it's right now. It's probably safe to say that most people in the English-speaking world are familiar with the troll-y ways of publications like The Onion or Clickhole, yet some naive souls, like the following, never got the memo. It's totally okay to laugh now and feel sorry for them later.

Just when you think people can't stoop low enough, they respond seriously to an Onion article. Is it a lack of critical thinking skills? Poor reading comprehension? Zero sense of humor? Bogus knowledge of the real world and an inability to distinguish between fact from fiction? Okay, yeah it's probably a combination of all of these. Anyway if you liked these then here's more times people assumed The Onion was trying to be a reputable News source.
