Memes. They fill up our Instagram feed. They make our lives better and are everywhere and of every topic. They can make even the darkest of the darkest things sound funny, and the dumbest of the dumbest things sound sensible. Over time, there have been many topics that memers use to bring joy into people’s lives.
These never fail to crack one up. Currently, apple’s brand new gadget, the wireless Bluetooth headphones, AirPods, have proved themselves to be a raging new template, on their extreme practicality, extreme impracticality, and their debateable price. This list shows some of the funniest AirPod memes out there now.
When I see Someone Wearing AirPods…
This meme from There’s something about Mary, shows Ben Stiller in a way, we all would think of someone as soon as we heard of him using AirPods. It’s insanely funny and relatable, making this the #10 meme on the list. An iconic face, for an iconic meme, produces a joke that will probably be stuck in your head the next time, you hear the word AirPod.
Good luck, getting it out…you’ll need it. A whitish strand in his ear, looking a lot like an AirPod makes this meme a lot funnier, and the other ear missing it highlights another problem. People constantly lose their AirPods!
AirPod users in a fight
Now, when a pair of headphones cost over $200, people will show them off. But the main problem with AirPods is that they fall out. This meme accurately shows an AirPod user in a fight, taking advantage of the AirPods multitasking feature, although Apple probably didn’t make AirPods for this.
But, hey.. when one pays $200, use them every chance you get just as this AirPod user has done, although this is not highly recommended. The caption of “No, they don’t fall out” would make this meme a million times funnier.
People who got AirPods for Christmas
Now, this one hits hard and on a very relatable note, as well, because not everyone can easily afford AirPods, so they buy them on really special occasions, like a birthday, or in this case, on Christmas.
This links both AirPods as a symbol of wealth, success, and sophistication and the fact that they are extremely expensive, which never fails to activate that little laugh inside of us. Because, deep, deep inside of ourselves, we all know, this is exactly what we would do.
AirPod Strap- “This Is Fine”
This meme sheds light on the AirPod strap, which basically kills the function of buying AirPods over normal headphones. The portability is the practicality, and this kills the portability, thus the practicality. A simple case of de-evolution, rather than evolution easily explains this meme.
The picture on the right with the dog saying, “This is Fine” is clearly ironic, as he is sitting in a room which is on fire. This is an indication of everything being the exact opposite of fine, fitting perfectly in this case.
Battery Problems
Using a familiar face, in an unfamiliar format, this meme uses Drake to get the message across. It’s pretty common to hear Apple product users complain about the short battery life.
Usually, one expects Apple to solve the problem, rather than intensify it, which is kind of what Apple did while making the AirPods. It is a well-known fact that WiFi usage and connections to Bluetooth devices, decreases battery life, so AirPods= less battery. Wow Apple, great job listening to the community.
Apple AirPods2
Now, this one’s pretty easy. The stem of the AirPods looks like a toothbrush, which really got some hate online. A user fixes this problem by removing the stem altogether. However, that’s not a recommended design for the next version of the AirPods, okay Apple? A clever idea gone wrong might have the stem-haters think twice before complaining about the AirPod stem again.
This user simply cuts off the stem, like a piece of celery to literally remove the problem altogether, making nobody proud…including the ones who got him those AirPods.
Big Brain Time
This goes in a completely different direction from the one slightly above. It shows the evolution of entertainment in music listening starting with the basic, normal headphones signaled by a small brain, then a wireless headset, with a bigger brain, then the AirPods with a really big brain and then a completely different type of AirPod, with the biggest brain. Obviously sarcastic and satirical, it’s a good meme, which doesn’t fail to make you laugh.
Oral B-Pods
Again mocking the toothbrush-like stem of the AirPods, this meme compares the original AirPods, to a toothbrush. It provides a terrifyingly uncanny resemblance, alerting all of us to be on the lookout for fake AirPod users. Oral B-Pods: making your ears and teeth brighter… although that may be a health hazard.
Fiji Water- AirPods
This meme perfectly captures the essence of all the other memes. Yes, AirPods are expensive, which is why people make fun of them, but this meme from a popular anime shows Fiji-water drinkers looking down at AirPod users as they both are going through the same thing, but Fiji-water drinkers have obviously faced more backlash than AirPod users, and are telling them to get over it as they did.
AirPod Stonks
A very big-brained user saved himself $200 after he expertly devised a plan to cut the wires off of his regular headphones, making them look like AirPods. The school confiscates them, and when the user goes to retrieve them, gets brand-new, peak condition AirPods, for absolutely free.
This was funny enough to make the #1 on this list and quite possibly the funniest AirPod meme, ever.
