94 Relatable Memes That Understand You Better Than People Ever Will

Scrolling through people’s posts and stories on social media might make you realize that you never had an original thought or experience. What I mean by this is that the most niche situation (like feeling weird touching cold water in the morning) has likely been experienced by at least one person in the world.

Need some proof? Just scroll down through this list of posts, courtesy of the Instagram account Daily Memes. And when you do, let us know in the comments below if any of them weren’t relatable to you. Chances are, not one of them will feel strange or alien-like.

While you're at it, don't forget to check out a conversation with fine artist Katie Peña, who kindly agreed to discuss with us more about the concept of originality.

"To me, 'original’ means channeling the unique lens through which I see the world into my work. Each of our own unique brains carries our own unique and ORIGINAL associations that contribute to our unique perspective, and I hope to capture that in my paintings, whether it’s emphasizing the shimmering light hitting a flower in a painting or bringing a feeling of ‘emotion’ to a painting of an inanimate still life," says fine artist Katie Peña.

"That being said, we can all still be ‘original’ when appreciating and studying the creations of those who have come before us in history, but this can be a narrow line to tread if not done thoughtfully over time and with broad research."

When asked about the importance of originality, Katie said, "Originality is a value that ranks high in my life, but only for how I personally interact with the world, not so much an expectation I value putting upon those in my immediate sphere or even broadly in society. Humans have evolutionary reasons to strike out on their own and conversely to assimilate with groups, depending on the context of the scenario."
