Feminism is really hard for dudes. Between second-wave and third-wave and post-feminism and men’s rights subreddits, we’re not sure when we’re being helpful and when we’re getting it wrong. Not Quite Feminist Phil is the sexist pseudo-feminist we’re afraid of becoming.
I’d like to dedicate Fake Feminist Phil to LOLGOP and everyone else who mocked the GOP fake-feminist ticket.

Good Guy Greg always has your back. 10 Guy is too high to function. Combined, they really aren’t as helpful as they want to be.
Redditor Medikated resurrected this photoshop combo two days ago. It had a moment a few months ago, but it deserves more attention. Below are my own Good 10 Guy Gregs. Submit one to /r/adviceanimals, or make your own at Quickmeme!
My dear friends,
The internet is a marvelous place. How perfectly astounding it is to learn the secrets of the deepest jungles and most obscure Kardashians, all at the touch of a button! However, the “Condescending Wonka” meme has got me all wrong, and I’d like to set the record straight.
My protege, Charlie Bucket, insists that there is no such thing as bad publicity, and the Oompa-Loompas have warned me: “What do you get when you go to the press? / Reporters who question your business success.” But I simply cannot bear the idea that I would condescend to children, when in fact, I hold them to quite rigorous standards.
Reverse Racism Randy’s schtick is pretty obvious. He wants to feel oppressed, despite playing life on Easy Mode.
(Randy is based on a picture of Senator Jon Tester, who actually seems really decent. This meme is a response to his face alone, not his politics.)

Inspired by Caveman Circus’s “video game logic”, we found 15 classic games that embody memes, song lyrics, and other famous pop culture quotes. And we still avoided doing a “Somebody That I Used to Know” parody.
The head of Apple Retail, John Browett, recently decided it would be a good idea to cut back on staffing in the stores. While Apple backpedals, you can have fun applying Browett’s thinking to everything else in the world, with our Browett Makes It Better advice meme!
Prince Harry has spent the Olympics with his brother William and William’s wife Kate Middleton. Bloggers like to call him Third Wheel Prince Harry. Which sounds to me like the name of an advice meme! So I made him one.
Breaking Bad season five starts Sunday, so to catch everyone up, here’s a recap of last season’s major events, starring Insanity Walter, Awkward Gus, Marie Problems, and more.
Season 4 spoilers, obvs.
“Overly Attached Girlfriend” is the street name for Laina, a wide-eyed girl who made an intentionally creepy parody of Justin Bieber’s “Boyfriend”. The OAG name mostly comes from an advice meme her first video spawned. She’s since made two more “fan videos” singing creepy versions of pop songs. And now she’s done a 13-minute Q&A.
Laina is self-effacing and playful. And she’s popular enough to get half a million views on a Q&A. Seems like a keeper, which is I guess my stupid way of saying I hope she makes a lot more videos and keeps developing her comedy.
A lot of advice meme practitioners on Reddit seem to disdain child-based memes, in a way that, say, Tumblr doesn’t. I get it partly — they rehash the same “this little piggy” and “pooped my pants” jokes. But every meme’s repetitive.
It smacks of “look at my cute kid”-ism, maybe? And the single-male cohort of Reddit looks down on those who have chosen to spill their seed into a woman, fertilely.
Well, other Redditors make them anyway, and Drunk Baby is funny.
Like most of Reddit’s advice memes this year, it started in an /r/pics post. You can wade through everyone’s submissions on Quickmeme, or see the best twelve below.
