We couldn't collect the funniest memes of the week without including memes on the two biggest events of this week. So just for you, we have a bunch of Thanksgiving memes and Black Friday memes that will either make you roll on the floor laughing, or cringe at the memory of too much food and too much shopping
GIFs are having a super week! First, they were named "word of the year" by the Oxford American Dictionary. (We had our fingers crossed for "go go juice.") Then, a Tumblr of Bill Cosby GIFs took the Web by storm.
The funniest memes of the week are back and better than ever. We start off with a meme about Papa John's, the subject of a lot of hate on the internet due to his very public stance against Obamacare. When it was announced that Papa John's was planning to cut employee hours and raise the price of pizza, the internet almost exploded with rage. Well, that's an exaggeration, but let's just say people were angry.
The funniest memes of the week are back, and boy do we have some of the funniest memes that ever meme'd for you. Between 'Intellectual Baby' and a late Halloween meme, this week is bound to get you laughing.
You know how we love our reaction GIFs -- those tiny moving pictures that always seem to best capture how we feel. Here, we have a special lineup of reaction GIFs for the election. No matter if you're an Obama supporter, a fan of Obama, or the rest of the world, we have a reaction GIF here just for you.
Everyone knows funny man Owen Wilson. And most teenage girls (and women) have swooned over Miley's fiance Liam Hemsworth. But did you know that Owen has more than just Luke in his family -- he also has brother Andrew Wilson? And that Liam Hemsworth and brother Chris Hemsworth of 'Thor' fame also have an older brother of much less renown? Check out these famous actors and their brothers in the business who you may not know.
This week's list of awesome gifs is perfect for those of you stuck inside dealing with the hurricane aftermath. We've got gifs of sassy Obama and an even sassier dog — plus, a funny take on Gangnam Style! And you thought storm coverage couldn't be fun...
The best memes of the week are back, with whole new bunch for you. For all our readers stuck at home because of Hurricane Sandy, we know you need the entertainment. So look no further, we've got enough fresh memes to keep you laughing until the lights come back on (well, maybe not that long).
This week's list of GIFs is particularly awesome. We have more than a few funny animal GIFs but don't act too surprised. Sometimes we at TheFW just can't help spreading our love for cats doing adorably funny things, such as our first GIF of a cat finally figuring out who was really behind her toy.
We couldn't have made a list of awesome GIFs from this week without including the cooler-than-you daredevil Felix Baumgartner. His amazing free-fall jump blew our minds, as did the GIFs commemorating it.
We didn't have to travel too far into the depths of the internet to come up with the best memes for this week. Some current events outside the internet (gasp!) prompted some great memes. The second presidential debate in "town hall" style was especially inspirational. From the debate we got 'Binders Full of Women,' 'Menacing Josh Romney,' and more.
