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 β€” 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

I sat my girlfriend down to watch Robin Williams' Live on Broadway set because it was stuck in my mind as the greatest comedy show of all time. I love that man and miss him, but we had to turn that set off a third of the way through. It has not aged well

i think he is a great performer but his jokes arent that good.

[–] Soulg@ani.social 8 points 1 week ago

Completely agree. Never been a fan of his stand-up, but incredible comedic actor. And dramatic actor too for that matter

His Michael Jackson joke still makes me laugh.

Same for my mom and I's viewing of "Good Morning Vietnam".

Yeah, uhm. Great film, if you can get past the 1980's Shock-Jock Robin Williams yelling to himself, from himself, at himself, back, forth, ad-nauseum.

Is that the one where he's got an entire table filled with water bottles and he makes it through like half of them by the end of his set?

[–] scops@reddthat.com 6 points 1 week ago

Yes it is. He uses one bottle to make a show of marking his territory like a dog.
