Proof that parents will never understand memes
Everyone knows that the minute you have to explain a joke to someone, you miss the whole point.
Kids these days have taken internet jokes to a whole new level. Where a well-placed winking face or a quirky chain message would do, they have introduced memes and animal filters. How can any parent keep up with all these developments?
In an attempt to understand what was so fascinating about memes, comedian Drew Tarver's father read through some of Drew's favourite internet jokes.

Who would even think that any of these are funny, you ask?
Well, the truth is nobody knows - but it's provocative.
