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

I'm going to argue a little for team doors though I wouldn't say I'm confident.

Feels like are more things with doors and not wheels than things with wheels and not doors. So many buildings and cabinets and dressers and whatnot. Actually, think of an apartment building. A 1 bedroom apartment will have at least 3 or 4 normal doors plus cabinets and the fridge, times the possibly hundreds of apartments in 1 building, plus probably a couple dozen for maintenance, common areas, and elevators.

I do think how you define the 2 greatly changes the calculation, but I think doors do compete at least

There will also be a door for every breaker box, and for every mailbox.

But most drawers have 4 wheels per drawer, and each rolling chair has 5 wheels. My dresser has 5 drawers and it's on wheels, so that adds 24 wheels to the count, without adding a single door. I still think the wheel are very far ahead, even in aparment buildings, even before taking gears, bobbins, and spools into account

My god, what bizzaro places do all the people commenting here live, where all the furniture has wheels ? Dressers with wheels, fridges with wheels, I'm half expecting TABLES with wheels now 😂

I am in Canada, and most large appliances (that are not built in) have wheels so that it's easier to clean behind them a couple of times a year. The wheels are fairly small, and completely hidden.

Furniture with wheels, like my dresser, aren't as common. It's mostly older, solid wood construction, and the wheels are just as small and hidden as they are on the fridge.

If your larger appliance doesn't have wheels on it, we often buy after-market wheel kits for them. That kit has 32 wheels per appliance in order to spread the weight.

When you add that a lot of drawers here use these types of slides, which adds 4 wheels per drawer, we have some kitchens with over 100 wheels in them.
