This week has been rough, and it’s just barely Thursday. It seems like there’s way too much unhappiness and strife and stress for an otherwise lovely week in October. Well, what better way to cheer up than with the classics? Here are some memes from long ago and not-so-long ago to help us make it through until the weekend.
First, the Chanel of memes: the classic “hang in there, baby”.
Yes, that kitty has been hanging in there since the 70s. Good job, kitty!If you need the power of the meme while on the go, you can get the hanging kitty on a T shirt.
Then there’s one of my favorites, from Sandra Boynton.
Don’t let the turkeys get you down (another throwback, this to the 80s). Yes, there’s merch, too– get a mug to keep you cheery AND caffeinated.
And then there was you got this.
The penguin knows that you got this.So does Ryan– hey girl…
At Fit is a Feminist Issue, know that anytime, anywhere, we got you.
We got you, babe. Even if the rainbow is a little faded.Even your bathroom toiletries got you. In a good way.
I'm a feminist public health ethicist (yes, that's a thing). I'm interested in heath behavior change, particularly around eating and activity, and how things other than knowledge affect our health decisions.I'm also a cyclist (road, sort-of-off-road, commuter), regular yoga-doer, occasional swimmer and kayaker and leisurely social walker.

One thought on “Throwback Thursday: feel-good memes we can all use”
Not quite the same, and it never “went viral” as there was no such thing when it was made, but I once got a t-shirt at a local bike event. This was back when Jane Fonda’s workouts were a big thing, and people often said, “No pain, no gain.”
This event was a take-off on Tour de France, and its shirt read, “No Pain, No Pain.”
I still wear it frequently!
