Our Holiday Gift Guide 2019: What to Buy For the Holidays According to Your Favourite Meme
It’s the dankest holiday gift guide ever.
It’s been a difficult year. So what soothes the soul and makes us laugh? Memes, obviously. Whether it’s the seemingly endless iterations of Spongebob memes, the absurd new genre of moth memes, or tide pods as a forbidden snack, we can’t help but get swept up in the #relatability of it all. And maybe we’ve looked at too many of them lately (hey, we said it was a tough year), but we’ve decided to organize our annual holiday gift guide around our favourite internet in-jokes to create the dankest holiday gift guide ever.
Whether you’re buying for a bad bitch who always escapes from the slipperiest of situations (Rihanna’s stilettos) to a gossip-wielding self-care obsessive (Kermit sipping tea), these are the gifts you need on your radar this holiday season.
