Every October I eat like a long winter is coming, then go sit in a heated apartment. A bear named Backpack won Fat Bear Week, Alaska’s online vote for the chunkiest bear, for doing exactly that, and he got over 100,000 votes while I got a look from my doctor. The funniest memes land here every night, and Thursday night’s memes are still up too. Grab a snack and dig in.

The funniest memes to close out the weekend

Backpack gets to sleep until spring, and the rest of us have an alarm set for tomorrow, which feels unfair. The Morning Commute picks you up tomorrow morning with a new batch, and another Nightcap lands tomorrow night for your late night memes fix.
