If you are to spend anytime on the internet lately, you have likely seen Wojak memes — those relatable, if not absurd or hilarious images that sum up the struggles of modern life from every purpose. From the dreaded “Wojak in despair” to the hopeful “Doomer Wojak”, these memes tend to capture everyone who has experienced the rollercoaster that is life.
Having gone through the trenches of memes and internet subcultures myself, I’d say that Wojak memes aren’t just funny images; they’re also a form of self-expression that brings us all together. So, hold onto your hats because the Wojak meme family tree is here to entertain you, and I guarantee from now on you will look at those silly faces in a totally different way.
