"Grief shared is halved; joy shared is doubled."

I was going to post a terrible meme to prove that sometimes sharing dumb ideas neither halves ones grief or doubles their joy but instead exponentially increases their confidence that the world is full of idiots.

I had to stop searching because there are so many terrible, horrible, completely idiotic memes out there that people actually share with full confidence that they represent their thoughts and feelings.
