While it's true that most memes have been created primarily for entertainment purposes, not all of them are positive or happy. These pictures that we peruse for our amusement depict all types of life and scenarios, after all. By the same token, that is not to say that we can't leave the memes we look at in a slightly better mood than when we found them, no matter what their tone may be. So long as they are fulfilling their ultimate purpose of distraction, it's hard to complain or feel deflated. We got to spend however many minutes or hours of our time ingesting the humor of the (not so) fine people of the internet, and that is always a privilege. Well, at least it is most of the time, and it can certainly feel that way if we have been recently deprived of a precious few hours with our screens.
