Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWeโ€™re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light โ€” 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, donโ€™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

Once you spot this it becomes impossible not to see it.

Ever notice how most environmentalists in comic book movies and TV are evil, misguided, or at best ineffectual?

Or how a corrupt official can leverage whole armies to chase down the protagonist, but the conclusion is that the system itself is great and should be protected and it was just that one bad egg?

Or the villain in every 80s movies wants to build medium-density housing.

But I really want a nerdy group of white kids and their one black friend to get into hijinks to save the community center!

Itโ€™ll become an abandoned mall.
