If you’re the seventh friend, enjoy these memes while your six mates are at the pub

We are sorry for your loss

4 years ago

Today marks the start of the new rule of six, where you can be fined for meeting up with more than six mates indoors and outdoors. Since it was announced on Wednesday, people have had time to take a long, hard look at themselves and ask “Am I the seventh friend?”. If you can’t think of who the seventh friend is then, we’re sorry, but it’s probably you.

If you are in a group of seven, know a seventh friend or are one, let these 17 cracking memes be your light in this tough time.
