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

Also hot is “chaud” in French which could sound like “oat”

Yeah but milk is lait, the guy is not dumb enough to think she was ordering some chaud milk by using both languages.

It’s either lait chaud or hot milk, or "hawt" milk in that case.

We struggle with the oa sound and some "arrr" sound (that’s what ended our pirate career). The worst English word for a French is probably "horror", it sounds like the name "Aurore" with a hot potato in the mouth, something like "Howwowr"
