15 Anti-Memes That Are Technically Very True
Everyone understands the premise of a meme to some extent. A funny photo paired with a joke or phrase that matches it. Memes are honestly quite simple, and their purpose is to entertain. But for those who like the world to be a boring place, there are also anti-memes. Anti-memes are memes that have been made literal. The joke has been erased, so instead of the ending being funny and unpredictable, it's just true and accurate. Although there technically is no joke or sarcasm with these kinds of memes, for some reason they still are pretty enjoyable.
Something about the sheer plainness of them catches people off guard and in turn still entertains them. It is strange but very real phenomenon. For those who enjoy anti-memes, luckily there is a whole subreddit dedicated to them. Reddit's /r/antimemes is made for sharing the most literal memes around. These 15 memes may not be the memes someone would expect, but they're kind of refreshing in a way.
