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

“The treadmill was originally invented in the early 19th century as a punishment device for prisoners, designed to keep them engaged in hard labor while also generating power for tasks like grinding grain or pumping water. Over time, it evolved into a popular piece of exercise equipment for fitness and health.”
Sure glad that’s changed!
That explains the name, I guess.
