The best memes to start 2025 with!

1) Me at 11:59 p.m. on New Year's Eve vs. me at 12:01

When you're old so by the time it turns 12:01 a.m., you just wanna pass out.


2) Your first mistake as soon as it turns 2025:

It's almost as if we've been set up for failure.


3) When your work sends you an email saying: Welcome back for your first day of 2025!

Ummm... so you're really just gonna ruin my year like this?


4) Showing up to work for the first time in a week and a half after almost forgetting what day it was and when you had to go back in

For those who have to work on January 2, or worse, January 1, we wish you the best of luck.


5) Me at work opening emails that all start with "Happy New Year!" be like:

Man, c'mon. Why couldn't this email be from someone famous or something instead? Or something saying I've won the lottery?!


6) Someone just asked me what my plan was for New Year's. This is my response:

Hey, at least I get to rest for one more day before I gotta go back to work and start whining!


7) Is it too early to start pre-drinking for New Years?

Nope, alcoholism waits for no one.


8) The best way to end and start the year...

Yeah, we're not falling for this one again.


9) When the first 365 days of the year are always the hardest

Hands up if you can relate!


10) When it's December 31st and someone says "See you next year!"

How about we leave these lame jokes behind next year, Jonathan?


11) My plans for New Year's Eve:

At this point, it's being old and sleeping over going to work on the second day of the new year 2025 any day.


12) January 1st be like: "This is going to be my year!" And when October hits...

Do any of us have ANY original experiences?


Happy New Year! May 2025 bring all that you wish for.
