Every customer service call starts by warning me it may be recorded, and then I explain the same problem to four different people like I’m on a press tour. Nobody has ever played that tape back. So here’s a new round of internet memes, same as every morning, picking up where yesterday’s batch left off. Put the hold music on speaker and scroll.

New internet memes to start the morning

I once said the word representative into a phone nine times in a row and got transferred to a survey. If this meme dump got you through the hold music, there are customer service memes for the people on the other end of that call, and work memes for everyone pretending to be busy. The Nightcap lands tonight with another round. If one of these got you, hit a share button below and send it to somebody who is also on hold.

Steve-O edited into a Lord of the Rings scene as Gollum beside Frodo and Sam, from today's batch of internet memes.

Who needs to see this?

Send it to the friend who’ll laugh the hardest, or post it for everyone.
