Generally speaking, though, we are more likely to focus on the entertaining and even soothing effects of the content right in front of us than we are on the annoying, unpleasant, screen addiction side of things. When our brain is full of thoughts about all the boring and stressful aspects of existence, a little stupid internet humor is exactly what so many of us are hankering for. It is a way to forget about the negativity for a while, and even when the memes tackle some negative topics, they make them seem slightly more lighthearted.
In this sense, they are the perfect thing to engage with at the end of a long day, or even just in a quiet moment. Sometimes, you have to make that moment quiet by force, but having such a compelling distraction can help with that. The great thing is that memes will be there any time and any place that you need to call on them to give that pleasant, brain-massaging distraction. That is the beauty of almost always having some kind of screen close by.
