Every street has one house that goes full Halloween the second October starts, and this year Home Depot’s twelve-foot skeleton can talk, so that neighbor now has a spokesman. I own one plastic pumpkin and I am weirdly defensive about it. If you caught yesterday’s meme dump, you know how this works: a fresh pile of funny memes every weekday at lunch. Grab the sandwich and start scrolling.

That is the batch, and I would like the grandma dinner schedule written into law. Eating at 11am and then sitting down until bedtime is the only retirement plan I fully understand, and I am closer to it than I want to admit. The cat that barely survived a sneeze and the soaked little bird having the worst commute of its life are my two favorite things this week, which tells you exactly how my week is going. Hilarious memes do not fix anything, but they make Wednesday feel about four hours shorter.

Another pile lands tomorrow at noon, and Classic Memes shows up later this afternoon for anyone who wants the older stuff. If you need more to scroll while the skeleton across the street stares into your living room, yesterday’s classic memes still hold up, and so do the funny pictures in Sunday’s spooky meme dump. I check both on my phone in the drive-through line, and I am not proud of it. If you know somebody drowning in email at their desk, send this their way with the share buttons below, and they will owe you a sandwich.
