10 Memes That Are Deeply Distressing Yet Alluring
Distressing memes have been gaining some fans online lately. We can't say we enjoy looking at them, but they have an addictive quality we just can't scroll past. Humans as a species love to be distressed, just like we enjoy a good horror flick. Scary and cursed content just appeals to some dark part of our minds. We love to be creeped out, and since we also love memes so much, it was obvious the two were destined to combine at some point.
We can't stop enjoying distressing memes in the worst possible way someone can enjoy something intentionally upsetting. You'll laugh but then see these images again in your nightmares. Or you'll just stare transfixed at the computer screen, feeling a little sickened by the dark jokes people came up with. Take a look at these memes to see what the distressing meme phenomenon is all about.

This format from Over the Hedge, entitled What is this place? has just been horribly mistreated. We didn't need to have this image in our minds, but now we can't unsee it.
Wholesome

This image of Homer laying in bed peacefully has been trending lately. Not because of this meme, but because of the less terrifying ones out there involving the formerly not-terrifying image.
