People jumping between tasks throughout the workweek often find themselves waiting for Friday. The much-anticipated weekday marks the commencement of the weekend and offers a sense of relief and freedom to office-goers.
The significance of the weekday has long been marked by popular internet slang like Friyay and TGIF (Thank God It's Friday). While Friyay is an informal name for the fifth weekday, TGIF is popularly used to express joy for the ending workweek and excitement for the weekend.
The ways to express this joy have only evolved over the years and now involve weekend humor, Friyay puns, and TGIF memes.

Exploring 7 best Friday memes exuding the TGIF energy
After a long and tiring work week, it's officially time to tune in to the TGIF energy with some quirky Friday humor and memes. From feel-good jokes to memes about booze and work, the TGIF humor is guaranteed to keep you entertained through the weekend.
Some of the best Friyay memes that can help you tune into the TGIF energy are:
1) You can't defeat me
The meme references the popular scene between Hella and Thor from the 2017 Marvel movie, Thor: Ragnarok. It features Monday (Hella) saying that the reader (Thor) can't defeat her, only for Thor to say that Friday (Surtur) can.
2) Friyay morning
The cutesy meme comments on how waking up on a Friday morning has people feeling better than the other days. While Friyay is still the last workday of the week, it often has people motivated in anticipation of the upcoming weekend.
3) It ain't urgent if it's Friyay
The meme featuring American actor John William Ferrell makes a satirical commentary about a quirky dialogue between a boss and an employee. While the boss asks for something to be done because it's urgent, the employee hints that nothing is urgent on Friday.
4) Inner Peace
The best part about Friyays is probably the one where you leave office. Simply stepping out of the office means it's almost the weekend and has people experiencing an unprecedented feeling of freedom and peace.
5) Just one drink (wink)
The meme featuring Kathryn Hahn from the 2021 Marvel series WandaVision, makes a satirical joke about having a single drink on Friday. Kathryn's winking meme implies that she won't be stopping at one drink, and with the weekend beginning, the viewer doesn't need to put a limit on the booze either.
6) There are better days ahead
If there's anything better than Friyay then it's the weekend days, Saturday and Sunday. Whether you plan to take it easy at home or go out partying, the weekend days are the best for it all.
7) I would fight for you
The playful meme references a popular image of a Cheetah and her cub, to make a light-hearted commentary about manager-employee relationships.
It shows the supportive side of the manager who schedules the tasks for Monday, and the appreciative side of the employee who is ready to go as far as fighting for the manager.
Trending
Friday memes bring some much-needed joy to people's lives and allow them to subtly celebrate the end of the work week. While people may tune in to the TGIF energy differently, what remains the same for everyone is the calming feeling of relief as the workweek transitions into the weekend.
