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

Not to mention all of the "Thanks to my sponsors, please buy their products" ad breaks inside of the videos themselves.

SponsorBlock for YouTube addon

DeArrow for clickbait.

YouTube added a “jump ahead” button to skip sponsor segments (I think it just goes to the “most watched” area of the video; which is always right after the sponsor segments).

They really don’t want any money being made on the platform unless they’re getting a cut

Wait, what? Did they?? I've never seen that! Is it just rolling out? It seems like I see their new rollouts later than a lot of others.

If a video is popular enough there will be a button to jump to the most watched segment. Nothing to do with sponsors, but sometimes the end of the sponsored segment matches the spike. Use sponsorblock if you want to skip sponsorships reliably

Honestly I just spam the right arrow key

Ooooh that's a ten second skip! You've halved the wear on my right index finger joint over the course of my remaining life, and I can't thank you enough 🙏 what other keyboard shortcuts are there??

Click on your profile pic and there'll be a "keyboard shortcuts" button. Generally the most useful (for me at least) are JKL, F for fullscreen, I for pop-out player, and ,/. to skip by 1 frame back/forward
