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

It was in the 90s. Then somewhere in the early 2000s somebody came up with the idea to write a sitcom, that the audience laughs at instead of the laugh track.

Al Bundy does not need laugh tracks

That show is like basic b and bro indoctrination propaganda

Friends is just a big American dog scooting it's butt across the carpet of comedy.

At a "friend's" insistence a few years ago, I watched the first 5 episodes of Friends and maybe had one unintentional chuckle. It just isn't funny.

Back then the first season or two of shows wasn't good. They needed time to grow the beard.

When friends first went on the air, I remember being puzzled. The name was super lame, the episodes weren't funny but people loved it.

I was too young to understand that if you're good looking enough, everything you do is funny.

Wasn't all that funny when it was new either
