Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’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 FormatsNot 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

Most British comedies that I've seen have 6 or 7 episodes per series.

Some of my favorites that follow the rule ...

  • The Black Adder
  • Red Dwarf
  • Garth Marenghi's Darkplace
  • The Mighty Boosh (9 episodes in series 1)
  • A Bit of Fry and Laurie
  • Peep Show
  • That Mitchell and Webb Look
  • The Cleaner
  • Upstart Crow
  • Black Books
  • The IT Crowd
  • Fawlty Towers

Even Monty Python's Flying Circus only had 13 episodes per series. The Carol Burnett Show, which ran in the US at the same time, had 24 to 30 episodes each season.
