29 NEET Memes That Capture the Beautiful, Soul-Crushing Art of Doing Nothing

NEET Memes

There was a time when being a NEET—Not in Education, Employment, or Training—wasn’t an identity, just a temporary blip in the existential static. But thanks to the internet, this once-unspeakable limbo state has evolved into a fully realized subculture, complete with its own aesthetic, its own lore, and, most importantly, its own memes. And that makes sense: memes are the perfect medium for the NEET lifestyle. They require minimal effort, offer maximum relatability, and let you engage with society without actually engaging with society.

Whatever Happened to Raine Pare-Coull From ‘Are You Afraid of the Dark?’

Raine-Pare-Coull

For a certain slice of ’90s kids, Are You Afraid of the Dark? wasn’t just a TV show—it was the definitive late-night experience, a kind of bootleg Twilight Zone for kids who thought Goosebumps books were a little too basic. It aired on Nickelodeon, which meant it was supposed to be for children, but it always felt like it was for someone slightly older—like that weird cousin who let you watch Scream before your parents thought you could handle it.

5 Historic Photos That Speak Volumes

A German mortar crew in the ruins of Stalingrad. August, 1942

The city is a corpse. It has been dead for weeks, but it does not stop burning. The mortar crew crouches in the ruins, hunched figures in uniforms stiff with sweat and grime.

A shell lands somewhere nearby. The ground heaves, bricks shatter, dust rises in great choking clouds. No one flinches. They have learned that fear is a luxury, an indulgence for those who still believe they will survive this war. Here, in the ruins of Stalingrad, there is only the next shot, the next order, the next moment. Nothing beyond that.

30 Memes That Sum Up Parenting Better Than Words Ever Could

Parenting is weird. Not in the obvious ways—like the sleepless nights or the existential realization that you are now legally responsible for a tiny human who has no concept of object permanence—but in the way it systematically rewires your entire understanding of time, patience, and the fundamental nature of reality. You start saying things like “We don’t eat crayons,” completely unironically. Your phone’s camera roll becomes a chaotic mix of blurry toddler action shots and screenshots of things you’ll never actually buy. You develop an encyclopedic knowledge of Paw Patrol lore against your will.

The Monologue That Makes ‘Andor’ the Best Star Wars Show

Lonni Jung: And what do you sacrifice?

Luthen Rael: Calm. Kindness, kinship. Love. I’ve given up all chance at inner peace, I’ve made my mind a sunless space. I share my dreams with ghosts. I wake up every day to an equation I wrote 15 years ago from which there’s only one conclusion: I’m damned for what I do. My anger, my ego, my unwillingness to yield, my eagerness to fight, they’ve set me on a path from which there is no escape. I yearned to be a savior against injustice without contemplating the cost, and by the time I looked down, there was no longer any ground beneath my feet.

What is… what is my sacrifice? I’m condemned to use the tools of my enemy to defeat them. I burn my decency for someone else’s future. I burn my life, to make a sunrise that I know I’ll never see. No, the ego that started this fight will never have a mirror, or an audience, or the light of gratitude. So what do I sacrifice?

Everything.

Feed Your Brain With These Fascinating Facts

In 1985 Michael Jackson bought the Lennon–McCartney song catalog for $47.5m then used it in many commercials which saddened McCartney. Jackson reportedly expressed exasperation at his attitude, stating “If he didn’t want to invest $47.5m in his own songs, then he shouldn’t come crying to me now”

It started as one of the great music friendships—two icons, two geniuses, two men who had both reshaped the industry in their own ways. Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney, together, had created some of the catchiest collaborations of the 1980s: Say Say Say, The Girl Is Mine. They admired each other, respected each other.

And then, Michael Jackson bought the Lennon-McCartney song catalog.

25 Memes That Perfectly Sum Up ‘Nice Guy’ Energy

Look, we’ve all met him. The self-proclaimed “Nice Guy” who holds open doors, sends “good morning” texts, and reminds you (often) that he’s not like other guys. But somewhere between his 47th passive-aggressive DM and a long-winded rant about how women only like jerks, you start to realize—this “nice guy” routine? Yeah, it’s got a catch.

The internet has, thankfully, turned this phenomenon into a goldmine of memes, where the Nice Guy™ is exposed in all his fragile, entitlement-fueled glory. Whether he’s complaining about the friend zone, rage-posting about how “women don’t appreciate real gentlemen,” or flipping from sweet to sour the moment he gets rejected, these memes capture the comedy and cringe of it all.
