The COVID19 (coronavirus) pandemic has forced a lot of changes in our habits and way of life. Former office workers are working from home in order to practice the recommended social distancing necessary to flatten the curve.
Sadly, many workers have also been laid off and have applied for unemployment benefits to weather the economic fallout of this pandemic.
But humans are also more resilient than we think. Amateur and professional comedians, parents who are new to working at home, and many others are preserving their sense of humor as we all adjust to our new normal. Here are some memes that stand out, and will hopefully give you a laugh as you hunker down.

We’re likely to see more of these memes as parents, unemployed folks, and performers come up with fun ways to try to make sure people have a laugh and stay safe. In the meantime, avoid going out if you have the option of working from home, and remember to wash your hands.
