What A Time To Be Alive

When dreams become memes.

What A Time To Be Alive
Know Your Meme

It's such an amazing time to be alive right now. Not because of all the great technology avaliable to me in the 21st century, that is ever so slowly bringing us closer together as a species. Not becasue, thanks to the ubiquity of smart phones, all the information I could ever want is avaliable to me 24/7. Not becuase of the massive amounts of mulitmedia entertainment around to keep me perpetually entertained. It's a beautiful time to be alive in America becuase my two favorite things in this world just merged together: Politics and Dank Memes.

In a truely brilliant stroke of attempted millennial outreach, the Hillary Clinton Campaign made the assertion that Pepe the Frog is synonymous with White Supremecy. Understandably, defenders of Pepe were rather upset that their beloved manic frog was being linked, through Simone Biles caliber mental gymnastics, to White Supremecy. I, on the other hand, want to personally thank Hillary Clinton and her campaign becuase she just gave me an excuse to post the dankest Pepe memes I can find, in order to demonstrate the diversity of this classic gem, and make a relevant political statement using those memes. A rare oppurtunity, almost as rare as this actual White Supremecist Pepe that CNN made:


Pepe doesn't support the superiority of the white race, instead he supports motherhood:

Pepe is motivational

Pepe promotes friendship

Pepe is enjoyed by people of all ages

You can even use Pepe to help your campaign

Pepe is the conduit for social commentary

Pepe is even an inspirational basketball star

See Hillary Clinton, how can you say Pepe is a symbol of white supremacy when he stands for so much more? It couldn't be because your campaign is so out of touch with the world, especially millennials, that you aren't even aware of memes and internet culture, could it?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
