Despite the trying times, we had social media. And yes, social media can be an insensitive and toxic place, but some of the memes and videos people put together on the internet quickly put smiles on our faces and made us forget life's troubles for a brief moment.
With that, here are some memes that brought us joy when we didn't think it was possible.

The #DollyPartonChallenge was inspired by the iconic country singer and activist herself. She posted a photo of herself which is honestly where the meme should have ended because it's the best one, in my humble opinion. But we all know how the internet is. Many four-paneled profile pictures flooded our social media feeds to show how we present ourselves on popular social platforms.

As people started adding their own lines into the subtitles, they created some of the funniest situations, such as famous philosophical sayings, including Nicki Minaj's lyrics. I can't make this up.
