VP Debate Memes Are Lighting Up Twitter
"Every woman I know has given this look when some man attempts to mansplain or present an idea that isn’t theirs."

On one hand, there was a lot less yelling during the vice presidential debate than the presidential one that preceded it. On the other hand, there was a lot of interrupting, plenty of straight-up lies, and some very odd segues. But there's one thing that the VP debate between Kamala Harris and Mike Pence provided much of: Memes. Memes! One of the only things that could possibly spark joy in an election like this one—in a year like this one, for that matter! We all need some good memes right now!
Plenty of the memes used Kamala Harris' truly epic side-eye as a jumping-off point. Others took aim at Pence. Whatever you thought of the debate, you no doubt need a laugh and a stiff drink, and while I can't provide the latter, please allow me to present the memes.
