Nearly everyone from both sides of the political spectrum have fun with Trump memes. And occasionally an idea rolls around that's so simple and pure, it makes us forget the ominous and unstable times we live in ---- this is one of those ideas. SNL Writer Josh Patten has taken trolling Donald Trump's stubbornly endless stream of fleeting thoughts, occasional announcements concerning the state of world affairs, and not-so-rare incendiary cultural commentary....to new heights by pretending like he's having a personal texting convo with DJ Trump himself. The resulting hypothetical texting correspondence is alarmingly believable, and entirely hilarious. 

The last time we were talking about Adele was after she revealed photos of her dramatic weight loss back in May. The internet is yet again talking about her appearance, except this time it's in a far less favorable light. The award-winning singer-songwriter is facing some serious internet criticism after donning Bantu knots for Notting Hill's Carnival. The occasion is a celebration of Caribbean culture, and many felt that Adele's use of the hairstyle was more cultural appropriation than appreciation. As one can imagine, Twitter users were very quick to jump on the look, to admonish the singer, defend her, and (most humorously) meme the shit out of her. While we've included some of the more serious takes in this gallery, we've chosen instead to focus on the humor. Cultural appropriation isn't funny, but mocking people who are guilty of it? Bring it on.

There's a time and place to discuss your relationship woes. Choosing an enclosed airplane at 30,000 feet in the air with no real escape plan is NEVER the way to go. Because she was forced to sit in the same row, this brave woman did exactly what needed to be done and live-tweeted the entire stomach-churning events of an in-flight breakup.

Recently a tweet went viral. The tweet basically suggested that someone had stated that they were an Edinburgh Zoo employee and a "penguin erector". The job was to pick up penguins who fell over after looking up at planes passing by. Sounds like the best job!! However, the Zoo made it a point to sadly shut down that rumor mill...

As a kid, I often fantasized about having a superpower. It's true that I may have spent too much time with my older (and male) cousin, but the idea of being "special" like one of Professor X's mutant wards was an attractive fantasy. Judging by the popularity of X-Men, I probably wasn't alone in my yearning. The comics and movies, however, have done more than allow people to escape reality via superhero material. Over the last year the X-Men have inspired some seriously clever memes on Twitter - something that's a bit more relevant to our adult (and extremely online) tastes. 

The memes generally follow the format of Professor X asking about a person's superpowers. The jokes riff on some pretty unimpressive skills or mutations, and the clever jokes unfold from there. While many of these are a bit less than fresh, the format has been seeing a comeback over the last month. We hope to see more of this smart humor, but in the meantime, we've rounded up some of our favorite examples of the meme. Maybe that's our superpower.
