25 Images That Are Supposed To Be Funny, But Reveal A Rather Sad Truth

Humor comes in many forms. There's a lot out there that's just plain funny, but there's also some content online that is something else, too. Once in a while, the perfect combination of funny and sad comes together to create an image that hits hard, but also makes you laugh a little. It turns out we all like laughing at the difficult things in life in order to help us cope. The relatability or simple everyday frustrations portrayed by these images are oddly alluring, even though they might leave us a little sadder than we were before we saw them.

That's not to say the humor doesn't balance it out, though. There's a lot of fun to be had with pointing out the modern struggles we're all getting pretty sick of dealing with. Plus, these images help us relate to the online community a little more, because our take on the world can finally feel more universal. Consider them your support system as you navigate the tumultuous modern age. Here are some of our favorites.
