A busy week of narrative management, agenda setting and noisy distractions for the “new normal” crowd…but just means more fuel for the meme-fires. Let’s dive right in. 1. COP27 kicked off this week, and the memes did not disappoint. 2. “You will eat bugs and you will be thankful”. 3. …we should all do our …
The spooky season is upon us, and what does that mean? The same as most other mondays, of course: memes. I’ll be honest, the title pun is the major reason these memes are here, but it’s the time of year for fun and frolics and bad dad jokes. 1. We could have filled the whole …
Memes are back again this week, for our quarter-century edition. Yes, it’s already been 25 collections of memes…hasn’t the time just flown by? Well, not for us, but for some people I’m sure. Probably the ones who aren’t doing memes. …shall we crack on? 1. As you’d expect there’s some pretty fertile meme-soil surrounding Liz …
Well it’s Monday again and, for now at least, that means more memes. Yes, Meme Mondays two weeks in a row! Isn’t that a treat? Don’t get used to it. You just know there’s an unhealthy dose of reality out there ready to ruin the fun sometime soon. 1. Some of you may have noticed …

Kim Usbourne Wow, is it meme-time already? Seems like only yesterday I was compiling the New Year’s memes. But since then we’ve had Novak Djokovic denied entry then allowed entry then denied entry again to the Australian Open (or should that be the Australian CLOSED?)… We’ve also had the most backtrackiest backtracking that I ever …
Kim Usbourne Where to begin? While things have much improved, and the narrative has taken a huge battering to the point of collapse, we’re still in a surreal limbo of people defending a nonsensical narrative, because they can’t accept the world we live in… So perhaps it’s better not to begin anywhere, but rather to …
Kim Usbourne Merry Christmas everyone! Congratulations on reaching your second Christmas under the directorship of the NWO. Yes, the WHO are still listing symptoms of the common cold and claiming it’s a plague, and yes, some people are still very keen to believe them… but things aren’t all bad. As more and more people cease …
Kim Usbourne Happy Monday Morning MemesTM everyone. So, yesterday evening the UK Prime Minister announced he’ll be rolling out a million booster shots a day to fight off the scariest of scary Moronic variant (typo: Omicron, excuse me).
