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

Who is economy. Baby don't hurt me. No more.

Also:

Europeans: "Americans never travel anywhere. Get a fucking passport!"

five minutes later…

Europeans: "Americans?! Here?! Fucking hell!"

Me, an American while in Paris: oh shit, Americans. Don't make eye contact. Fucking god, ugh I'm in a bad mood now

Oh, yeah I know... Objectively. It's a familiarity breeds contempt thing I guess lol

Meh, I saw an American tourist get up and scream at a waitress "why don't you speak English!"

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 2 points 2 weeks ago

See what I mean? You can't be too careful, lots of Americans are nutters.

Oh are you afraid of the whole "well fancy that, we're from the same country! Let's be besties" spiel?

I would lie until they took a hint. "I'm from Antarctica. I got this accent from a door to door salesman. What do I do? I'm a prominent actor in tapeworm kink."

It's always funny to see local waiters pamper American tourists because they know they'll get tipped well. But also, from what I've heard from US friends, for many it's cheaper to literally fly to Europe and vacation here than take a vacation domestically.

Spent a weekend in Paris last year. Meals were €40-€100 for two with wine.

Can’t get out of happy hour in America without spending $40 for one.
