Welcome to General Memes
Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cruel
Weβre here for laughs, not fights.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it light β 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, donβt 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

When I was young I thought the ending was the coolest thing ever because taking a person's elemental bending away is like ripping your entire being away. Like stripping a billionaire of all of their assets and cash. Horrible blow to their ego, lifetime of suffering, etc.
But now that I'm older, Aang should have just killed the bastard. The fight was hella cool tho.
Amazing how, as you got older, your opinions got more basic and animalistic.
Kids really are incredible.
There are good reasons to not leaving Ozai alive that a child wouldn't factor in but an adult would. Namely a revanchistic coup against Zuko to reinstate either Ozai or Azula and restore the Fire Nation empire, while Azula was redeemable in theory Ozai wasn't, my source for that last bit being that he is voiced by Mark Hamill.
Point is that leaving him alive while idealistic and honestly pretty gnarly also leaves loose ends.
