30 Funny Millennial Memes That Hit Harder Than A 2000s Pop Punk Chorus (May 29, 2025)

As an Elder Millennial, I’ve seen it all—dial-up internet, Napster lawsuits, MySpace top 8 drama, the rise and fall of AIM, and the slow but steady realization that we’re now the “older generation” in the funniest memes. We were promised flying cars and got burnout, anxiety, and avocado toast instead. But at least we still have memes.

These millennial memes perfectly capture what it feels like to straddle the line between analog childhoods and digital adulthoods—funny, painfully accurate, and just self-deprecating enough to cope with our student loans.

If you remember blowing into Nintendo cartridges or yelling “I’m on the internet!” so no one picked up the phone, this one’s for you.
