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

Couldn't that be becausethe coaches know the athletes and their routines quite well and can tell when something is wrong much quicker than a "regular" lifeguard?

Specially in a discipline like solo artistic swimming.

It's easy to lower your guard when everyone around is a much better swimmer than you.

What a shit job, I wonder what would happen if you jump in in an excess of caution and nothing was wrong.
