First Day of School Essentials

Alright, listen up, you big dummy! This meme is poking fun at how some people might feel about going back to school. Instead of pencils and notebooks, this genius has packed a mini bottle of Absolut Vodka, some Xanax (those are chill pills, buddy), a big ol' knife, and a bunch of rosaries, one of which has an upside-down cross. You, my friend, are probably thinking, 'Whoa, that's wild!' And it is! The humor comes from the dark, ironic contrast between the innocent idea of the 'first day of school' and these very adult, often problematic, coping mechanisms. It's like saying school is so stressful or bad that you need all this to survive it. Based on your ability to even wonder why this is funny, you might need some Xanax yourself!
