Discover the Best Hump Day Memes Below:

We Are Trying

“Trying desperately to get over Wednesday,” this hump day meme says. With an assist from a cute, golden puppy we find an image that appears to show that puppy stuck on the hump. Who has not felt this way on a Wednesday before?

Coffee?

Is there one day of the week you tend to drink more coffee than others? For us, it’s Mondays and Wednesdays and we are sure we are not the only ones. This hump day meme says, “Not sure if it’s Wednesday or I just need coffee.” If you have ever felt this pain, you know you better send this meme to someone who cares.

Meta Meme

“If you could stop posting the hump day camel every Wednesday, that’d be great,” this hump day meme says. It’s perfect because the image is from The Office, and the meme is about office culture and the things we send each other to keep things light and somewhat fun. Some folks are over the hump day memes with camels, but we’re not.

How It Works

“Today is Wednesday which means tomorrow is pre-Friday which means the next day is Friday, so it’s basically Friday,” this meme says. We don’t know if we buy this but it certainly is a funny way to frame a Wednesday. We all want it to be Friday so bad we are making up new ways of naming the days preceding it.

TMW…

“That moment when you think it’s Friday but it’s really Wednesday,” this hump day meme says. Somehow this monkey has the perfect shocked reaction face. It looks exactly how you feel when you think you are further along in the week than you actually are. We’ve all been there.

Hello?

“Tomorrow you’ll be saying hello from the other side of the work week,” this funny hump day meme says. If you’re a fan of Adele or know someone who is, chances are they will appreciate this meme. In fact, just about anyone will get a kick out of it.

Stuck in the Middle

With a few misspelled words for added cuteness, this hump day meme says “Now [I] know how Wednesday feels… Stuck in the middle and waiting for the weekend.” The caption sits on top of a very adorable picture of a cat in between some cushions.

Do It

“Have a good Wednesday, you hear?” this fun hump day meme featuring a baby with a very serious expression says. Only you can decide if you will follow this advice. If you’re looking for a Wednesday meme that spreads plenty of cheer even for a group of people you are chatting with at work, this would be the one to send.

Addams

“It’s only Wednesday,” this meme featuring the character, Wednesday Addams of The Addams Family. It’s a fun play on the name and likely a way to give someone a smile. “It’s only Wednesday,” is likely a sentiment you think a few times on the day as we all want that weekend to race to the rescue.

The Time Has Come

“Yes, today is that day,” this hump day meme says. By far, this genre of meme features more camels than you can count. This is one of the more popular forms but it will not be the last one we share with you. You can do it!

Facts

“It’s Wednesday,” this hump day meme informs, “On Wednesdays, we drink wine.” You know wine Wednesday does have a good ring to it. We can’t let taco Tuesday have all the fun. If you’re pouring yourself some vino on Wednesday, you know what meme you should send.

So Close

“We are ‘THIS CLOSE’ to it being Friday,” this adorable dog meme states. We are all for the hump day memes that feature cute puppies because who does not love cute puppies? This one has employed its cute little paws to let you know that Friday is right around the corner.

Yes!

“Hump day, halfway to the weekend,” we find this classic meme template captioned. We could look at cute puppies and cute babies on these memes forever. You can’t go wrong with this wholesome and inoffensive hump day meme. It’s cheering on your accomplishment of living until Wednesday this week. This is a feat worth celebrating.

Say It

“C’mon, say it… say it…!” this hump day meme featuring a camel says. This meme is one of the classic memes in this genre that is piggybacking off of that viral commercial Geico put out in 2013. It was an effective campaign so much so that it spawned memes inspired by its humor and camel character.

True Story

“Nothing screws up your Friday like realizing it’s only Wednesday,” this meme says. While we are not the biggest fan of the actor featured in this meme we will say that these meme gets sent around pretty often. We guess a lot of people get their days mixed up. We’re sure Depp has a time or two before.

On the Horizon

Happy Wednesday! I think I can see the weekend from here!” this hump day meme featuring a standing cat says. Okay, puppies, babies, and cats are all great characters for these memes. This cat that appears to be looking over a mound of snow is just so cute.

Grumpy About It

Here’s another cat hump day meme. However, this one has a more serious tone. “This is my ‘It’s only Wednesday,’ face,” the meme informs. Have you ever seen a cat look so mad in your entire life? We think this one is in tune with its big cat ancestors and we would not cross it. If you’re a grump on Wednesday, you have found the best meme for you.

Yikes

“Some people call it ‘hump day.’ I call it false advertising,” this slightly naughty hump day meme says. We would not suggest sending this one to anyone in your office as they could be offended. But, to a trusted friend, this is a pretty hilarious meme to send them.

Big Question

Here’s another one of the more ris·qué hump day memes out there. “If it’s Wednesday but it’s not raining, does that make it dry hump day?” this silly meme asks. Again, you do not want to send this one to your colleagues as they could be offended by the caption. Be smart and only send this meme to someone you trust.

Also How It Works

“I don’t always write the word Wednesday, but when I do, I pronounce it in my head as ‘Wed-nes-day,” this meme states. It’s funny because it is dumb and that’s okay when we’re talking memes. This meme was much more popular a few years ago but we hope you bring it new life online.

Running Late

“Teacher: ‘You’ve been late three days this week. Do you know what that means?'” the caption says. “Me: ‘It’s Wednesday?” If you or someone you know is constantly running late, you know which hump day meme to send.

Don’t Get Ahead of Yourself

“Thought it was Thursday but it’s only Wednesday,” this classic meme format says. It really is important to not get ahead of yourself when you have days left to work. You don’t want to get your hopes up only to be left so down low. Just two more days!

Hurry Up

“Hump day. I can almost see the weekend,” this hump day meme says. How cute is this baby’s face? We want to share his joy with everyone. If you can almost taste the weekend ahead on a Wednesday, send this meme to your buddies.

How Long?

“Happy hump day? Has it been seven years already?” this meme asks. We’re not sure if there is a Star Trek connection here that we are not getting but we liked the idea of a meme that uses hyperbole to describe how slowly the passage of time feels when you are mid-week of your 5-day. Trekkies of the world, you know what to do.

Never Gets Old

“I know it’s Wednesday, it’s on the card right here… But, I still want it to be Friday,” this hump day meme says. Who could forget in 2015, when Steve Harvey tried to crown the wrong Miss Universe? It became such a viral moment that is so cringe-inducing that it’s hilarious. This meme puts it to good use in such a hilarious fashion.

There you go! We hope you got a kick out of these hump day memes and that you will share them with others who can relate to them. If you liked these memes, keep reading for even more hilarious memes. These were discovered by Mamas Uncut’s Ryan Brennan.

25. Stairs + Monday Morning = Trouble

Those of us with a multi-story home understand the pain of having to walk downstairs every single morning – same with people that live on the second floor of an apartment building. Whether you’re going downstairs to make some breakfast or to get to your car, there’s nothing worse than making that trip on a Monday. I swear, each step feels like I’m taking three steps. 

24. We Can All Use a Punching Bag on Monday

A punching bag is anyone’s best friend on a Monday. It’s a great way to release stress, anger, anxiety, or any other emotion you’re feeling – which often comes in abundance on Mondays. Did you know that most people don’t even smile before 11:16 AM on Mondays? A study in the UK came to this conclusion and it confirms the notion that people rarely smile on Monday morning. 

23. I Smell It, Do You Smell It?

Mondays are so bad that you can smell it from a mile away – as soon as the sun starts setting on Sunday, your entire mood starts to change. And when your mood starts to change, you’ll do anything to try and make yourself smile. Did you know that Monday is the most popular day for online shopping? Apparently most people counter the Monday blues by emptying their Amazon cart.  

22. That’s a Lot of Work

As if Mondays aren’t already a headache, seeing the influx of work floating on your desk at 8 in the morning – or whenever you clock in to work – makes matters much worse. And for some reason, the pile only gets bigger as the day goes on. Did you know the FDA approved the world’s first commercially-produced birth control pill on a Monday? See, Mondays aren’t that bad.

21. You’re Going to Have to Drag Me

One of the hardest things about Monday is getting yourself out of the house and into your car so you can go to work. Your legs start feeling heavy and you start to question whether you actually need a job or not. Did you know nearly half of all employees across all sectors are late to work on Mondays? Are you one of them? Or are you someone who likes to get to work early? 

20. Yeah, I Don’t Get Mondays Either

This is one of those expressions I tend to use frequently on Mondays. Just the idea of Monday alone will have me wondering, “Why? Do we need this?” I don’t know about you, but I can do without a Monday every now and then. Did you know there’s a Japanese American actress, singer, and songwriter named Monday Michiru? Imagine having Monday as your first name!

19. We All Have Our Monday Mask

When Monday rolls around, we all put on our happy faces as we go to work and try to act as normal as a society should. Behind that mask is an exhausted, dull, and defeated expression that wouldn’t fly at work. Did you know Monday is the most popular day for employees to call in sick or show up to work sleep-deprived? That could be part of the reason why we hate Monday!

18. Watch Out, They’ll Sneak Up On You

Mondays are known to sneak up on us. Once Monday passes, it seems like it takes forever to get to Friday. And once we get to Friday, the weekend is gone before we know it and it’s Monday all over again. In 2022, there are a total of 52 Mondays and the same will reign true in 2023. Be prepared for 2024, though, because there will be 53 Mondays – that’s a whole extra Monday!

17. Mondays Suck for Everyone

Next time you’re looking for pity as you try to make the most out of Monday, just remember that we’re not the only ones that have bad Mondays – it’s a universal thing. Animals, plants, and insects have the case of the Mondays every now and then, so it’s only natural. Did you know we spend nearly 12 minutes every Monday complaining about the fact it’s Monday? 

16. It Was All Going Well Until Monday Showed Up

Like we mentioned before, those Mondays come up so fast – one second it’s Friday night, the next second it’s Monday morning and you’re in the car on your way to work. Let’s not forget that the United States dropped a bomb on Hiroshima on a Monday – August 6, 1945, to be exact. Let’s hope no more bombs are dropped on any more Mondays, we have enough to worry about!

15. And Just Like That… POOF!

We spend five days of the week looking forward to the weekend and when it finally comes, we don’t have nearly as much time as we need to fulfill all our desires – that’s five days of ideas and plans that need to be crammed into one weekend! Here’s a fun little fact about Monday – it’s the only one of the seven days that doubles as an anagram (you can spell dynamo out of it). 

14. You Can’t Escape Mondays

Wouldn’t it be cool if we could just escape Mondays – as if they didn’t even exist? That must be what having Monday as your regular day off feels like, the freedom to be happy on a day where everyone else hates life – it’s powerful in a way. Did you know in some countries and religions, Monday is actually the second day of the week? That’s right, the week starts on Sunday!

13. Mona Lisa? More Like Monday Lisa!

I’m sure we can all relate to Monday Lisa – sometimes there’s just no time to do your hair and get ready. The pure exhaustion from the weekend removes any ounce of care you once had. This is how I woke up on Monday and this is how I shall look on Monday. Did you know the Titanic sank on a Monday – April 15, 1912, to be exact? I don’t think that’s a coincidence.

12. That Monday Came Out of Nowhere 

It was the weekend and I was just stringing along for the ride and then out of nowhere, BAM! That Monday came out of nowhere and knocked me right on my butt. I guess you have to be careful out here because Mondays don’t playaround. Just listen to the song called Manic Monday by the Bangles – a girls rock band that wrote the song in honor of hating Mondays. 

11. Cats Are the Lucky Ones

A lot of people say they want to be rich so they can do whatever they want, but I’d much rather be a cat – they do whatever they want, walk around like they own the place, and sleep most of the day. They also have no perception of what Monday is – none of that exists in their mind. Did you know that Mondays are often the best days to start a new routine or list of tasks/goals?

10. How I Feel at Work Every Monday

This is actually a scene from Season 2 of Scrubs – a popular television show that takes place in a hospital setting (it’s Grey’s Anatomy, but comedy). Dr. Kelso embodied what all of us feel like on Monday – we just want destruction in our path! The only positive thing about Monday is that it’s the least likely day to experience rain. I mean, that has to stand for something, right? 

9. When Monday Walks Up On You

When I first saw this meme, I immediately thought of the Will Smith slap on Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. I know I speak for all of us when I say we’ve all been slapped in the face like that – in fact, it happens everytime Monday rolls around. Did you know that watching your favorite television show or movie (or listening to your favorite song) can help your Monday go better?

8. Those Early Monday Tears… 

How many times have you woken up with tears streaming down your face because it’s Monday? Don’t worry if it’s a regular occurrence because you’re not alone – though you should seek help for it if it starts to compromise your ability to live a happy and healthy life. Did you know that most people are up to 30% less productive on a Monday compared to other days of the week?

7. We Need a Good Plan for Stopping Monday

I bet if we all worked together and created a plan for stopping Monday – doing away with it – we could come up with something. The problem is no one has ever tried, but that shouldn’t stop us! In all seriousness, that’s not really possible, but one can dream, can’t he? Did you know that most people weigh more on Mondays than they do the rest of the week? Another reason to hate Monday.

6. Imagine If Everyday Was Monday

Can you imagine if every day was Monday? It might sound terrifying, but I think it would actually solve our problem – in a similar way than just doing away with it period. If every day was Monday, there wouldn’t be anything to hate because it would just be a new day – every day. Did you know that people above the age of 40 are at an increased risk of being stressed on Monday?

5. Winnie the Pooh Doesn’t Like Monday

I have to say, I feel for Winne the Pooh on this one. I would’ve had the same reply if I was in his situation, no doubt. The only thing worse than being prepared for Monday is finding out it’s Monday, on Monday. I guess it wouldn’t be too bad if you found out later in the day, but it would ruin your day if you found out early in the morning. Has that ever happened to you? I hope not!

4. Mondays Are Too Long 

Does anyone else feel like Mondays take 20 times longer to end than any other day? I know it’s impossible, but that’s what it feels like! The morning seems dragged out, the work day takes forever, and then the work never seems to finish when you get home. Not only that, but you have four more days ahead of you before the weekend, so you better buckle up and wake up!

3. We’re Always Confident Until Monday Appears

I don’t know about you, but I always get a little too confident on Sunday night. I make a plan for myself to get a lot done on Monday and I feel good about it – until I wake up the next morning. Then it’s just downhill from there. Did you know that more heart attacks happen on Monday than any other day of the week? The same goes for suicide – if you feel depressed, reach out for help!

2. We’ve All Been There, Haven’t We?

For five days of the week, most of us set an alarm for early in the morning – usually several hours earlier than what we’d like. When we wake up on Friday, we’re relieved to know that we won’t need an alarm clock the next two days. Unfortunately, your body is so used to waking up early that even without the alarm clock, you’re still waking up at 5, 6, or 7 in the morning. Ugh!

1. SMONDAY

I don’t know what’s worse – Monday or SMONDAY. For those that don’t know, SMONDAY is the moment when Sunday evening starts to feel like Monday. You start to feel the anxiety of all that’s to come and it starts to ruin your last bit of peace before the work week begins. Don’t let SMONDAY win – enjoy your Sunday night, clear your mind, and remain in good spirits!

Monday Memes Help Us Get Through the Week

We can all agree that Mondays are always a bad way to start the week, but let’s also agree that Monday memes make it a little bit better. At least they put a smile on our face and force a giggle out of us – even if it’s just for a moment. If you know Mondays like I do, you need that moment.

Whether you hate Mondays or love Mondays, let’s vow to not let that hatred ruin anyone’s day – or week, for that matter. Mondays are hard and Monday memes help capture it in a hilarious way, but let’s not fall to the stereotype. Instead, let’s make the most out of each Monday we get.

Besides, there are good things that happen on Mondays – for starters, we’ve got Monday Night Football to look forward to (during football season). Monday is also, statistically, the best day to buy a new car and the most likely day of the week to see a rise in the US Stock Market.
