39 of the Funniest Memes from the Week of July 8, 2024
Unfortunately for Dua Lipa, it’s legal to own a ukulele in the U.K. — a hard truth she was recently forced to confront at the famed Glastonbury Festival. There, an enthusiastic ukulele player asked her to listen to his freaky strumming for a full 30 seconds. She kindly obliged him, and went through a visible range of emotions during that brief period of time, which the Twitter timeline couldn’t help but turn into a hilarious meme.
The “Levitating” singer wasn’t the only one to get memed into oblivion this week, though. Joining her were the Inside Out voices people have in their own heads and a whole lot of things that are running just like Joe Biden.
‘I’m Running’
Despite everyone clamoring for the exact opposite, President Biden doubled down on his presidential campaign in a new fundraising email. “Let me say this as clearly and simply as I can: I’m running,” he maintained.
What kind of company is he keeping with all that running? Everything from Microsoft Edge after you uninstall it, to your dog when you put its leash down, to Tom Cruise in literally every movie he’s in.
Dua Lipa’s Enduring Face
Ahead of her headlining performance at this year’s Glastonbury Festival, Dua Lipa decided to join the masses and enjoy the festival grounds. But being among the masses means dealing with the annoyances that celebrities typically have the privilege of avoiding — like having to rub elbows with an Instagram musician with dreams of becoming famous. She put on a brave face while enduring his lackluster singing, and in the process, she gifted us with a versatile reaction photo for the ages.
‘Inside Out’ Starring What’s Inside Other People’s Minds
The Inside Out sequel smashed a Pixar record by becoming the studio’s highest-grossing film of all time — surpassing the likes of Toy Story and The Incredibles. But along with its $1.2 billion box-office glory, it also managed to birth one of the week’s hottest memes. While the film’s young protagonist deals with her anthropomorphic emotions, Twitter users shared what Inside Out would look like if it took place inside their heads. And lord have mercy on anyone who has a bunch of vapid West Hollywood bartenders haunting their inner dialogue.
