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

My 83 year old grandmother with budding dementia watches nonstop AI generated stories set in pre-industrial times on YouTube, only second to court TV. She says it’s comforting, and she just wants to be entertained with content that feels like the same thing.
Meanwhile her perceptions are being shaped by those comfortable fictions. Worse than written fiction? Who knows, we're all test subjects at this point.
I can’t take it away from her… she gets mad and throws a tantrum.
Ah....Good luck with that. Been there myself.
