Hilariously Pretentious Puppies

The Condescending Literary Pun Dog Will Become Your Favorite Meme

2011 was certainly the year of the meme, and there's no better way to go out with a bang than with the latest installment of hilarity: the Condescending Literary Pun Dog.

Following the styles of memes that were popular this year, like Chemistry Cat and my personal favorite, Unimpressed Astronaut, the Condescending Literary Pun Dog features some hysterical captions on a photo of a dog wearing glasses. What's not to love?

Writers, Liberal Arts majors, and lovers of classic fiction are sure to love these pun-filled pictures. Featuring some great examples like: "Pavlov? It rings a bell," and "This meme is too specific? It satisfies a very Neitzsche market," the Condescending Literary Pun Dog is sure to kill some time and make you chuckle.
