Military Meme

I thought it would be important to post a Military meme as they are usually what is considered the 'front line'. It is a niche community but still very broad. I think this meme emphasizes the freedom we take for granted but are beginning to realize as quarantine is deepened. This is something the Military is more accustomed to.

This picture is a perfect depiction of the unnecessarily extreme measures some Americans are taking during grocery shopping, i.e. covering up abundantly, stocking up on toilet paper, etc. This humor is more targeted at making fun of the ignorance of some people.

Corona Virus Quarantine Workout Meme

This meme explores the interesting dynamic quarantine creates between extreme productivity and extreme laziness. There has been a mental healthy struggle to not drown oneself in trying to be productive with all of the extra time everyone has.

Corona Virus North Korea Meme

This image comedically explores how in North Korea there was a man who tested positive for Corona Virus and the leader of North Korea Ordered him to be shot and he was killed. This is a more detached form of humor because the post is American, but we truly only know what North Korea wants us to know about them.

Corona Office Show Meme

This meme connects to a very funny scene in the show 'The Office'. This meme is poking fun at the executive order that mandates groups of 5 people as the maximum number of people that can be together. Making a joke out of this order might illustrate the lack of severity Americans are viewing the pandemic with. #VART3030

Corona Virus Clorox Meme

The meme is a can of Clorox as if it is drinkable soda. It is playing upon the recent conference President Trump had in which he said we could 'inject Clorox to prevent the virus'. This was so significant that Clorox came out with a statement addressing this, stating their product is not meant to be consumed or put in the human body at all. The type of humor present in this meme is very satirical. It brings to light the humorous and unfortunate reality of our ignorant President.

Corona Virus Gucci Belt Meme

This is a meme that dissects how the United States is handling the COVID-19 pandemic. This is one of those memes that is funny but hits really close to home because it makes the viewer realize a harsh reality. Of course, we have more resources and options than a third world country. However, the way our country is handling this situation is not optimal.

Easter Last Supper COVID Meme

The COVID-19 Pandemic has lasted through Easter now and of course the Last Supper reference makes sense. With the increased use of Zoom by schools, businesses, and families the post imagines the Last Supper happening over Zoom.

Vitamin Gummy Memes

This meme focuses on the lack of stability felt by people everywhere. There is also a large part of internet culture that argues the amasingness of gummy vitamins over pills/chew able tablets. I am not sure where the man holding the watermelon came from. #FordhamUniversity #VART3030
