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

There are many biological things you could easily consider a door, but there are no biological wheels.

Also planes have doors to enclose their wheels. When not in use as well as doors for the passengers and pilots to enter the plane. I think on average there are more airplane doors than airplane wheels.

There absolutely are biological wheels. The ATP synthase molecule has an axle and rotor that spins, and you have ~1 quintillion in your body.

Other than most planes have multiple wheels per gear. And especially so the heavier it gets.

For planes, I'm on the wheels side

That's a hot take, considering there is a door above every row of seats on a plane for passengers carry-ons, not to mention all the doors for all the stuff the flight attendants have stowed away that has to be able to be closed off. There are SO MANY doors on a commercial plane.

Are those really doors though?

And if so the rollers on the back to help them pivot are wheels....

I don't know enough about how airline storage door hinges are built to know if I can agree with them having wheels, but most hinges I do know of don't contain wheels.

Hinges are not wheels

Yeah planes probably have an balance between wheels and doors.

I can see the biological angle I think that's a bit stupid, if we consider transistors doors then doors win by a giant margin. So I considered the simple definition, like a car door or house doors and same with wheels
