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

I actually enjoy the ones with unintentional double meanings. Corporate redid my building at work a few years back.

  • We have a picture mural of the local city skyline featuring a big billboard that they couldn't be bothered to get marketing to photoshop into one of ours. It's an ad for a local real estate company and apartment group with known ties to organized crime. It's named for the owner's last name and I shudder to think how much money these people burned on SEO shifting results to not immediately return all the sordid details of the court case that landed one of the brothers in jail for some serious shit including connections to homicides (those didn't stick, but the financial crimes did). Makes me giggle because in one of the wall sized photo murals this billboard is like 4ft wide. Who the fuck approved that?

  • We also have "inspirational quotes" up on the walls. Big custom ordered vinyl sticker shit. One from Winnie the Pooh effectively works out to "Don't waste time thinking shit through, just work! Fuckin' YOLO!". My coworkers now say we'll blame Winnie the Pooh if one of our projects blows up.
