Welcome to General Memes
Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cruel
We’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 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, 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

a door handle has a latch assembly which is arguably a wheel, as is the turning cylinder, if it has a lock it could have a bunch more "wheels" too, and the "rose' (the round part that covers the hole the cylinder passes through to connect the two handles) could also be a "wheel" depending on your definition.
One could count a hinge as a wheel as well.
Not every cylinder is a wheel. Not every handle is connected to a door, and not every door has a handle. Sliding doors are doors, but not drawers. Cabinet doors are doors but not windows. A hinge is not a wheel. Plumbing isn't a wheel. Your capillaries and glands are not wheels.
Your definition is wheely bad
how are you defining wheel?
For the purposes of this question, I think the best definition is simply: a wheel is called a wheel, and a door is called a door. The definition is in the name. That basically eliminates most nonsense haha
