The Morning Commute: 25 Morning Memes and a Costume Worn Since September

Somewhere a kid picked a Halloween costume in September and has worn it to the grocery store, the dentist, and bed ever since. I respect it, mostly because I have been wearing the same hoodie since March. October makes everyone a little unhinged, which is great for morning memes, and a fresh pile lands here every morning, with last Friday’s batch still up if you fell behind. The first one comes with an uninvited roommate.
