There are a zillion better things to do on the Internet than looking at slut shaming memes. | Source: ShutterStock

There are few things that make me more mad than slut shaming, and the fact that there are a bunch of slut shaming memes made by girls really bothers me. Why? Well, aside from slut shaming in general being gross and sexist, when girls slut shame other girls it’s setting all of us back even further. How? Because it pits us against one another when we should be working together to improve.

But what’s most infuriating about slut shaming memes is that they’re such an epic waste of time, and on top of that–dude, they’re just not that funny.

There are so many better ways to waste time on the Internet. In fact, we’ve conjured up ten of our favorite things with which to occupy ourselves online–and guess what? While some of them may set you back in, say, finishing that paper or starting our algebra homework, none of them will make us slam your heads into glass ceilings. So there! (Please note that reading Gurl.com is obviously the best option, but I’m trying not to be selfish.)

1. Instead of criticizing girls for wearing makeup, you can learn how to apply it.
Wearing eyeliner doesn’t make anyone a slut, so slut shaming someone based on her makeup is pretty stupid, and frankly, it doesn’t make sense. Is a mascara wand a penis? No? Didn’t think so. (And if it is, I have a lot more to learn about animal testing than I thought.) So instead of posting things like this that harp on girls for wearing makeup, how about learning how to do an awesome smoky eye yourself? The fact is, a lot of girls wear makeup out of insecurity–and if you need to pick on anyone else, chances are you’re insecure, too. Check out these awesome YouTube tutorials from inspiring ladies for ideas.

2. Poke your crush on Facebook.
Is poking in general creepy and annoying? Well, yeah. But it’s still not as bad as slut shaming. Plus, he may be into it and message you. That is, if he knows a good thing when he sees it. Who knows? He may even want to poke you in real life. Hi-yoooo!

3. Dogs. On swings.
This needs no explanation.

4. Follow Cher on Twitter.
No, seriously, do it. Or you might miss gems like these:

5. Buy stupid things.
Want an inflatable moose head? Or a garden gnome that moons you? You didn’t know that you did, but you totally do. And so does your little brother and weird cousin who does that thing with his eye at Thanksgiving dinner. Yeah, that one.

6. Meet Scumbag Steve!

You can see more of him here. Doesn’t he sort of look like Mike Posner? No offense to Mike Posner. I don’t know if Mike Posner’s actually a scumbag. I do, however, think a lot of his songs are annoying. Wait, what was I talking about?

7. Tweet at One Direction.
They might just answer. And Harry Styles might just fall in love with you. YOU NEVER KNOW. That’s what I keep telling myself.

8. Spam your dad’s Facebook wall.
Especially if he still gets email notifications whenever someone posts something. Just make sure you’re only writing and posting pleasant things, that way he’s confused as to whether or not he should be pissed at you. I recommend lots of emoticons, followed by, “Dad, aren’t I your favorite?”

9. GIFs!
Pictures that move?! Pictures of Ryan Gosling that move?! Yes please. If there were a way to project these onto my ceiling … nevermind.

10. Bee dogs.
They’re dogs. Dogs that are dressed like bees. That’ll be two hours of your time, thank you.

I’ve never had anyone swoon (or creep on?) me the way this girl has for J.B., but I have had some pretty jealous, clingy kitty cats in my day.

Here’s our Overly Attached Cat Meme.

However, for the most part, these blame the victims of rape, say it’s OK to hit women, insist feminism means women want special treatment (as opposed to equality for ALL), that women only want male attention, and that feminists only exist to hate men. They’re just gross and not funny. There is no punchline. The only punchline we can make out is: “Aren’t women just awful bitches!”

So, how do you bread a cat? You cut a hole in a piece of bread, and stick their face through it. Yeah, we know… might be one of the weirdest Internet trends ever. While it’s kind of cute and funny to see these cats with a piece of bread around their face, we can’t help but feel sorry for these little guys: they look totally miserable!

Check out some of the best cat breading pics we could find, and then let us know what you think:

Clean ALL the Things?

If I could, I would get a sex change and marry illustrator Allie Brosh myself. I, along with the rest of the world, became totally obsessed with her “This is Why I’ll Never Be an Adult” blog, which spawned jillions (yes, jillions, FACT) of “______ ALL the _____s?” parodies. But is anything better than the original?

First World Problems

I know that complaining about my iced coffee having regular vanilla syrup instead of sugar-free should make me feel guilty and pathetic, but thanks to this meme, it just makes me the life of the party! Fail.

Ryan Gosling

It’s no secret that we love Ryan Gosling (Yes. All humans.). It’s also no secret that we love memes. Put them together? Pure magic.

Occupy Wall Street

At some point, the OWS movement reached it’s tipping point and became less about job creation/foreign oil and more about trying to not get beat up by the police. But hey, at least we got a good meme out of it .

Planking

Douche: “Haha get it because I’m stiff like a PLANK, BRO!?”
You: HAHA I hate you.

Haters Gonna Hate

It’s hard to put into words how much I love this turkey. Whenever I’m home alone, I’ll start hooting and flapping and hollering “Haters gonna haaaate!” Gee how am I still single, what a mystery!

Scumbag Steve

Sadly, we have all known some real-life version of Scumbag Steve. Let’s just hope that we aren’t related to/been impregnated by him.

Annoying Facebook Girl

Deep in the night, I breathe a sigh of relief that this isn’t a picture of me. Because I DEFINITELY have done every single thing Annoying Facebook Girl is mocked for in this stellar meme.

Hipster Ariel

I mean, putting glasses on The Little Mermaid? Genius. And uh, worth hours and hours of my time, apparently, too.

Nyan Cat!

I totes saved the best, and most addicting, for last. The song. The cat. The Pop-Tart. The legend. Nyan Cat is officially my boyfriend. There. I said it.

Do you agree with Jenna?

Going viral today is a video from Jenna Marbles (who you may remember from “How to trick people into thinking you’re good looking“), all about how gURLs act on the Internet. We’re thinking it’s half true, half dumb-in-a-good-way.
