Being married can be a wonderful thing, but when you spend copious amounts of time with a single human being, you’re bound to run into a few road blocks. Whether it’s how low (or how high) to keep the thermometer in the house or the endless debate about what to have for dinner, most people who’ve been married for any period of time have come to embrace the humorous side of their union.
The internet is full of funny marriage memes and tweets that perfectly sum up what it’s like to be married to the same person for years on end. The funniest of those memes tend to focus on those goofy everyday occurrences that rankle our partners subtly over time, but there are also lots of memes that focus on the sweet, funny parts of being married. Take a look at some of the best of the bunch.
