If a meme is already bad, there is no reason to make it worse by adding on a terrible, cringeworthy caption. There is a fine line between a good meme and a bad meme, and it is not hard to cross that line at all. All it takes is one too many emojis to turn a meme into a visual nightmare. There have been many memes over the years that maybe were funny at one point, and now just deserve to rest in the comedy cemetery.

Unfortunately, though, some people don't understand this, and they raise them up to try and make them funny again, in a terrible act of comedy homicide. Comedy homicide is like kicking a meme while it's already down, no one is enjoying it, it just isn't worth it. Reddit's /r/comedyhomicide is a subreddit that features a mass amount of these memes made so much worse by their terrible captions. It is a painful, upsetting sight to see, but there is a certain amount of bad humor behind it. Here are 25 dead memes with captions making them even worse.
