Most internet memes are typically intended to make people laugh since they're humorous bits of media that bring people together through laughter and sometimes light jabbing.

Sometimes, however, memes can get a little too real and hit close to home. While memes are meant to entertain, they can also educate and make people think deeper. Memes speak hard truths and real facts in an enjoyable way. They can be both funny and sad at the same time. It makes sense though, memes come out all the time so for some of them to depict real-life situations is just to be expected.

Reddit's /r/FunnyAndSad is a subreddit full of memes that are a little too real. They make hard pills to swallow a little easier, in a "spoonful of sugar" sort of way. Still, though, thinking about these can be a bit daunting and upsetting, so try not to think about them too long.

Here are 24 memes that are both joyfully funny and painfully sad at the same time.
