Welcome to General Memes
Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cruel
We’re here for laughs, not fights.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults
Rule 2: No Forbidden Formats
Not every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
- NSFW memes must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.
Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

They also record the same scene multiple times, so the laughs may even be from a different take.
…and not necessarily even from the same joke or scene. All you can say with a „live studio audience“ is that the laugh you hear will have been recorded that night. Maybe even from the warm-up act.
That's also a high sell. Some sound engineer somewhere definitely has a favourite laughtrack they like to use. There's bound to be inside jokes as well.
What you can say is that it's more genuine than a single overused laugh track. In fact, it's probably the simplest way to get variety - just use the actual laughs when they're okay, and swap those "not okay" with ones from older takes/scenes/episodes.
