Brazilian humor is funny, silly, and self-deprecating, meaning, it is perfect for memes! A few months ago, Brazilian users started tweeting about unexpected dating ideas–from naps after lunch to visits to the notary, with the hashtag #ideiadedate (date idea) 😜

We are the 4th online community in the world, and our memes usually start on Twitter, before migrating to Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. For those who are not part of our culture, it may be quite hard to understand our memes. It is common for foreigners to wonder why we laugh about tragedies, but we face so many challenges in our daily lives that the only way for us to cope is to laugh about it.

🗣️The whole idea of going on a date was not really a thing in Brazil before dating apps took over. We used to meet people at a night out, through friends, but a ‘date’ was something we used to see in American movies. Today, everything changed. Even the word ‘date’, in English, became part of our vocabulary.
