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

Left pic: triangle cut, peel on, not blanched, not floured or cornstarched, kept room temp, likely cooked too cool in a shallow pan to avoid smoke and having to clean up.
Right pic: peeled, square cut with a purpose-built slicer, blanched, floured, frozen then thawed before double-frying at 300 then 375; basket hanged to drain, tossed with fine salt.
Also phone camera vs DSLR with proper lighting and color correction
Great example of how a headline can instantly shift the narrative and bypass critical thought, like “The War in Gaza” or “Hasan shocked his dog”
I do both frys at 350
blanched is a whole ass process you can't gloss over it you are doing a disservice to anyone who doesn't know niche culinary terms but want to cook better chips.
You should eat your own shit if you think glossing over fries and Gaza are comparable things. But then again you reinforce a point that you somehow intended and didn't intend to make, at the same time. Great job. Or did you intend it entirely to make a point this whole time? 4d chess mate hats off.
You should have stopped at the camera thingy.
Same, friendo. 🤪
Hmm.
Criticising someone for comparing fries to Gaza, but in the same comment criticising their lack of detail on the blanching technique. We're getting to Inception levels of irony.
dun… dun… dun-dun… dun-dun-dun…
