15 Not-So-Funny Memes That Had Their Potentials Obliterated

The issue with memes being so accessible is the fact that literally anyone can do whatever they want with them. Anyone can call any image or screenshot a meme and share it wherever they want. This leads to users with poor taste oversaturating what could have been a chuckle-worthy image with far too many laughing emojis and capitalized exclamations. Honestly, a lot of times the original meme wasn't even funny, which makes it so much worse. It really shows how low the bar is for some to call something funny. Maybe I envy those people somewhat. Imagine thinking anything is joyous. Imagine not having such a niche sense of humor.

Anyways, Instagram, for whatever reason, seems to be a breeding ground for ruined memes. Reddit users have come together to collect obliterated memes from across social media (mostly Instagram, honestly) to compile them into /r/ComedyHomicide, where jokes go to die. Here's a collection of 15 cringeworthy times people thought they were helping the cause, when in reality they were killing it, if not kicking it while it was already down.
