Funny Tweets From People on the Struggle Bus

A philosopher once said, “Seek not perfection, seek only to live, for in living there – aw, dammit! I just spilled coffee all over my smock. My NEW smock. Dad was right, I’ll never make it as a philosopher. Stupid Carl. STUPID.” And you know what? He was right.

Here are tweets from ten people who are trying and failing and trying again.

10. Skin deep

Honestly even the fact that you’re talking about cleaning your room seems a little braggy to me.

9. High standards

When you realize that you may not be the catch you imagine yourself to be.

8. Don’t mind me

When you’re so in the moment you can’t smell your kitchen on fire.

7. Minimalism

I’m less concerned about the folding chair and more concerned about the two dozen paddles on the back wall.

6. Special delivery

I’ll bet he just ate all your fries and didn’t want to admit it.

5. This is just grate

How…how did you manage to get home like that?

4. The juice is loose

Gonna clean those things down to a pulp.

3. The pie goes on forever

Hey last time I checked you were my bank, not my mom.

2. Recipe for disaster

Honestly I thought the food might just be more impressive.

1. Shoe-less and clueless

At least you’re not stomping around trying to pretend your rights are being violated.

None of us has it fully together. And that’s ok. Just make sure to share your failures with others, because they’re usually really, really funny.

Memes for Folks Who Are Just Trying Their Best

I can’t count the number of times that I’ve thrown my arms up, totally frustrated, and said “Look, I’m trying my best!”

I’ve tried my best to count how many times that’s happened, but I failed. Because it turns out, my best isn’t really all that good.

My best is a normal person’s average. My 10 is general 5. But it’s all I’ve got, darn it, so I’m just gonna keep trying. And I’m gonna keep looking at memes about other people who are similarly struggling to do life.

11. Risk assessment

Bombs away, I guess.

10. Doesn’t add up

So even with a machine whose entire function is doing math perfectly, I’m still wrong.

9. Mixed signals

Am I really this stupid or are you just confusing?

8. Down the drain

Oh crap, oh man, there’s gotta be an undo button around here somewhere, right?

7. Give me a break

This is how close I am to snapping right now.

6. Pull the trigger

It breaks my heart to break their imaginary hearts.

5. Feel the fizz

Man, that’s the best part of the drink.

4. Lean in

Somebody give me a sign!

3. Can’t handle it

Can’t believe I pulled it off again.

2. Self-sabotage

It’s no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy.

1. Stand in formation

I’m still not gonna be able to do it.

I did my best to come up with an outro for this, but I failed yet again.

What have YOU failed at recently?

Memes for People Who Are Onboard the Struggle Bus

Are you currenlty on the struggle bus? We understand. There’s a lot of us on here. In fact, it’s getting crowded, and I think I might have just missed my stop.

But while we’re (not) enjoying this ride, we CAN enjoy some struggle memes.

12. No alarms and no surprises, please

Welp, guess tomorrow is just gonna be suffering.

11. Define “fun”

That’s literally impossible and you know it so stop mocking me.

10. Very suspicious

I know something terrible is just waiting to pounce on me and I’m determined to be ready for it.

9. Sky rockets in flight

I think I’ll puff puff pass on paying that right now.

8. Endless regret

Well well well, if it isn’t the consequences of my own actions.

7. Work it

Our survival rate is darn near 50%.

6. Let it go

We both know it’s never gonna happen, let’s not fool ourselves.

5. The isolationist

Yo I didn’t know you’d be inviting all these…yanno, humans.

4. Out of time

I think Einstein might have had some stuff to say about this.

3. Warning

That’s nothing a little electrical tape can’t fix.

2. A terrible diagram

There’s really no overlap, I am forever screwed.

1. You’re going down

At least I’ll be remembered for something?

With memes, even a ride on the struggle bus doesn’t seem so bad.

What’s your favorite way to ease the struggle?

Tweets for People Who Are the Hottest Mess

Raise your hand if you think you’re a hot mess.

Now raise your other hand if in trying to raise that first hand you somehow hurt yourself, knocked something over, or set fire to your greater metropolitan area.

It’s ok. I understand. I’m a hot mess, too. Last week I severely injured myself while yawning in the morning. There’s not much that’ll push you harder to say “screw this I’m staying in bed” than that. But a lot of people on the internet are hot messes too, and they turn that hot mess into a hot take, and place that hot take on Twitter for all to enjoy.

Check out these ten tweets by and for people who are just like you, you beautiful disaster.

10. The customer is always wrong

Just because you don’t mean anything doesn’t mean you can’t wreck me.

9. Reset

If I could call a do-over on existence I probably would have ten times by now.

8. Take me away

Imagine having this conversation 48 times a night.

7. I don’t mouth so good

Forget it, I’ll just go ahead and never speak again.

6. Dating in the modern day

Elizabethan courtship etiquette has nothing on the internet age.

5. The big questions

I need to report this original tweet for rudeness.

4. The Devil’s in the details

My demons have resorted to cleaning up just so they have something to wreck.

3. Pain in hindsight

These are the scars that truly never disappear.

2. Time and place

Don’t forget to follow it up with a “haha, but I dunno, man, it’s whatever.”

1. Out of funding

I’m sorry, what the hell app is this?

If you’ve managed to scroll through all of that without disaster, congratulations. Give yourself a high five! Oh, that made you sprain your wrist? And the whole office was watching? Nevermind, just get out of there, I’m sorry.

What’s your biggest “hot mess” moment recently?

Important Lessons That 2020 Has Taught All of Us

What have we learned in 2020 so far?

It’s kind of impossible to say. On the one hand, it feels like the year in which we all lived a thousand lifetimes and gained the perspectives and heights of wisdom that come with such figurative reincarnations. On the other hand, it kinda feels like we’ve gone nowhere and done nothing and learned jack squat. Maybe the truth is somewhere in between?

To shed some light on the subject, let’s have a look at these ten 2020 memes and see if we can discern a lesson from them.

10. Nothing makes sense

God is just extremely drunk right now.

9. Protect yourself

They saw their chance and they took it, by golly.

8. Stock up on arrows

Those folks had it right from the start.

7. Take every opportunity

You never know what year might be your last chance to really start some sh*t with Uncle Ron.

6. It’s a nice excuse

With an attitude like that, not many people are gonna ask questions.

5. It’s the little things that count

If only I could pretend to be busy around other people instead of pretending to be busy around no people.

4. The more things change, the more they stay the same

How many dudes have just been riding this wave?

3. Standards will shift

I don’t even wanna know what the 2021 goals will be.

2. Remember to excuse yourself

I can feel the heat of a thousand grocery aisle stares just reading this.

1. Stay safe out there

Having to face off with this crisis hasn’t been easy, but we’re doing it.

Not sure if those are actually the most helpful lessons in the world, but at the end of the day, at least they’re lessons?

What have you learned in 2020?

10 Memes For the Hot Messes Out There

We hope you’re having a good weekend. Or wait…is it the weekend? Or is it Wednesday? Or…February? I don’t know, I’ve honestly had a hell of a day, and it feels like just another one in a long series. But I’m doing my best – I’m hanging in there! And so are you!

We’re all doing what we’ve gotta do.

Call me crazy but I think I might be getting mixed signals here.

8. Rev me up

It’s all theatre of the imagination, baby.

7. Text dilemmas

So much is lost when you can’t see the weird look on my face.

How are you hanging in there lately?

Tweets That Sum Up 2020 in a Nutshell

It’s strange to think back to the beginning of this year, when we were all having little semantic arguments about whether 2020 was technically the start of a new decade or not.

(For the record, I don’t care what the official system is, the decade starts when the third digit changes, that’s just common sense.) Little did we know that a short while later we’d be having arguments about whether 2020 was technically the start of the apocalypse or not.

At least we got some funny tweets out of it?

12. Butt of the joke

Thanks, I hate it.

11. Isolation syndrome

It has been a year of very mixed feelings for us introverts.

10. Taste the rainbow

The only vacation I can afford anyway.

9. Love schedule

I’m sure our “QUICK OPEN EVERYTHING UP OH F*** CLOSE IT AGAIN” strategy will start working any minute now.

8. Long hair, don’t care

I’m guessing you’re wrong but a man can hope.

7. Busy busy busy

Panic attacks burn a lot of calories too, it turns out.

6. Corn-n-tine

I’ll never take the little things for granted again.

5. Sweet release

I found myself thinking the other day “Can’t wait for the Fall so this mask isn’t so hot.”

4. Cancelled activities

Just because they were stupid doesn’t mean they weren’t plans.

3. Beat the devil out of it

The gentlest among us have their limits.

2. Safety from numbers

If ya’ll screw me over on this, so help me…

2. Cursed monkey paw

It sounds like paradise until you can’t leave.

1. A new low

The plot twists in this movie are getting out of control.

Eventually this year will fade away with all its horrors, but we’ll still have these funny tweets. So that’s…something? I guess?

What’s the best and/or worst part about 2020?

Memes for People Who Are Firmly Aboard the Struggle Bus

We’re all on the struggle bus right now.

All of us. The bus has been upgraded to like a double-decker Greyhound situation and even then it’s insanely overcapacity, which just adds to the problem because WE’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ALL CLOSE TO EACH OTHER LIKE THAT.

I think my metaphor might have gotten away from me there. Just like my mental health has. At least I’ve got these struggle memes that I can look to for reassurance that I’m not the only one feeling this.

13. Goin’ down

Why have abs when you can take naps?

12. Glitter bomb

How come everything isn’t exactly what I want all the time?

11. A wrench in my plans

My smile is a lie and we both know it.

10. Low-effort

What’s the point in having robot butlers if we don’t let them live our lives for us?

9. Like and subscribe

You wanna know how I got these emotional scars?

8. So close

This feels like a very expensive and mean joke.

7. Yo, teach

How do you do, fellow kids?

6. Lightning round

When you’re too busy to get busy.

5. Play stupid games…

…win stupid prizes.

4. Small defiance

You can only push me around so far, Google.

3. Survival instinct

Sounds like you’re dating a psychopath but OK.

2. To the limit

What if I’m cute while I do it?

1. Missed opportunity

He’s literally sleeping on the chance of a lifetime.

Browsing struggle memes probably isn’t as effective as therapy, but it is considerably cheaper, so there’s that.

On a scale from 1 – 10, how aboard the struggle bus are you right now?

Talk it out in the comments.

Memes for Those of us Who Are Struggling Hard Right Now

I’ve been struggling a lot lately, with all of this nonsense going on, and I’m looking into talking with a therapist again. I think that’s a healthy thing to do that nobody should be ashamed of, even if you’re just trying to work through some “normal” bad feelings you’ve got about things.

However, therapy is…kind of expensive, so while I do some comparison shopping, I’m pretty glad I’ve got memes as a stop-gap.

Obviously that’s a joke, memes aren’t a real substitute for mental healthcare. They can be pretty damn cathartic though, and surely that’s a semi-therapeutic thing. So check out these 12 struggle memes, and maybe feel a little better knowing that someone out there gets it.

12. It’s rewind time

Try summarizing this year without punching something, I dare you.

11. Futile exercise

“This will be my year to get fit,” we all lied to ourselves…

10. This is America

Things accelerate quick.

9. It’s a sign

Me too, kid. Me too.

8. Just the beginning

Don’t even joke about something like that.

7. Worry Warrior

Can’t start screaming if you never stopped.

6. Keeping up appearances

[annoyed grunt]

5. Psychic visions

Man, I’m a regular Miss Cleo.

4. Left behind

I swear we were doing something before…

3. The adventure begins

Learn the warning signs, me.

2. Inflated expectations

It’s like a reverse Grinch.

1. Hope

No jokes on this one. Just take a breath.

If you’re struggling hard right now, you are definitely not alone. Remember to reach out. Remember to clear your head now and then. You’ve got this.

What’s your biggest issue with this year?

People Share the Secret Battles They Are Currently Fighting in Life

People say that everyone out there is fighting a secret battle. It could be health-related, it could be depression, sadness, rage, money troubles, love troubles, etc. The point is that everyone is dealing with something.

AskReddit users shared the private battles they are currently enduring.

Remember to be kind to everyone and help people out whenever you can. You never know what people are going through.

1. Terrible.

“My mother has weeks or months left… Doctors aren’t optimistic, but this is indeed my last holiday with her.”

2. Still haunted.

“My mom died unexpectedly in December of 2011.

I am haunted by all the ‘what ifs’, ‘should haves’, and ‘never agains’.”

3. Torn apart.

“Honestly….depression. Cancer has literally torn my family apart. I lost my biological father, my stepfather, 2 aunts and numerous cousins to it. My daughter doesn’t have it but she stays sick, a lot.”

4. Hang in there!

“Diagnosed with 2 different types of cancer this year. And surgery, radiation. Starting to recover and figuring out what life will be like from here on out as I turn 40 in 3 months.”

5. A dark abyss.

“Trying to continue life with my daughter gone. I miss her so much every day. I’m fighting the guilt that’s constantly eating me alive because I didn’t protect her. I should’ve been more watchful but I failed my sweet baby. Life is nothing but a dark abyss without her and I’m not sure I’ll ever see light again.”

6. Staying clean.

“Going through methadone treatment while my two brothers are still using drugs. I’m clean now but it’s still a tough battle, especially because we live together.

I appreciate all the support and kind words reddit peeps. I’m in the middle of tapering down already, 30 mg left, and if anyone is facing a similar struggle just know YOU CAN DO IT! You’re the master of your own destiny.”

7. My psychosis.

“Psychosis. I’m under immense pressure to try and seem normal, to laugh like I’m normal and react and talk and socialize like I’m normal. But it’s hard when I’m hearing and feeling things that aren’t real, or when I believe things that make other people get weirded out. I feel like I’m at constant war with my head and I want so hard to just seem well-adjusted, and to not be fucking annoying all the damn time.”

8. Looking for a job is demoralizing.

“Currently dealing with unemployment and trying to stay positive in the sea of rejection letters. Luckily, I have an interview coming up but that is stressing me out because I don’t what I’m going to do if that doesn’t go well.”

9. Still grieving.

“It’s been a while since my husband died and no one talks about him anymore, it’s as though he never existed but I still grieve for him every single day.”

10. Exhausted.

“I just wish I existed outside of my own fucking head. Attempts at reaching out met with indifference feels like contempt after so long. .

3 people I love have died in the last year. I feel so fucking alone.

Nobody is having an easy time and I can barely think of anything positive, and when I do and share it, indifference is what I’m met with.

It’s exhausting. I don’t want to do this anymore for no reason.”

11. Reality.

“I have a baby with serious health issues who will likely have disabilities.

There are a lot of other things along with that situation.

Sprinkle in my own anxiety disorder / depression… Struggling mightily with life right now.

I don’t see it getting better. This is my new reality.”

12. A shell of my former self.

“Depression, Anxiety, PTSD.

Car accident at 16 left me clinically dead and in a coma. Massive anxiety from that along with PTSD.

Last year I lost my S/O because of a drunk driver.

I have horrific nightmares about both incidents. I’m a shell of my former self.”

13. This is sad.

“I want to kill myself, but I’m the only person who gives a crap about and helps my disabled friend in another state who is routinely abused and taken advantage of.

I mean, I guess I also don’t want to hurt my parents, but they should have thought ahead before reproducing when they knew how fucked-up their heads were. But my friend never asked for a neurological disorder. She doesn’t deserve to suffer alone.”

14. He doesn’t need to know.

“My kid is dying. Incurable, fatal disease. My wife and I decided to tell no one, not even family, because at that point our little boy will find out, and why does he need to know? He just needs to be a little boy and enjoy the life he has.”

15. Heartbroken.

“The girl i thought i was gonna marry broke up with me. I’ve been going through a faith crisis which has always been huge for me. I just feel so broken and lonely…”
