We are living in uncertain times, many are afraid of what the future holds, and indeed wondering when this will ever end as life as we knew it seems to be in the distant past right now.

The COVID19 pandemic is a serious subject, but as with all times of hardship and fear, people turn to humor to help them cope and it is a great way of coping.

Keeping each other’s spirits up is always needed.

Here are a few of the memes and posts that are circulating with more coming out daily and keeping people amused.
