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

I call bullshit too. Especially because I was at this exact airport a couple of weeks ago, and they specifically asked what kind of milk I wanted when I ordered a coffee.

There are often multiple places to buy coffee in airports.

And you should never underestimate stupidity.

When I was in the army, during one exercise a fellow NCO didn't have his blank-firing adapter on his rifle, as it's a bright yellow bulb on the end of your barrel. (It does two things, smashing the balsa-wood bullet of the blank and increases pressure in the barrel to enable properly function of the recharge even with the much lower powder-charge of the blank.)

So I looked closer, and he didn't have the safety catch on safe on his rifle. So I took it away from him — fast. And what you do to secure a gun is to remove the magazine and pull the bolt back to check if it's loaded. And it was. Sure, it's a "blank" with very low charge and balsa wood bullet, but it's still not safe.

My point being that this fucking töhö had been accepted in leader training and graduated from it in the Finnish military, when even the first minutes of any basic ass gun training should've prevented him from doing precisely what he did; pointing a loaded gun at someone.

So I can completely believe a Frenchman not knowing what oat milk is, no matter if he worked customer service in an international airport.

"We have milk, or... special milk" (waggles eyebrows)
"Uh, just milk please"
