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

The poems you wrote as a child are still better then the ones you didn’t write as an adult because you lost the motivation to express yourself that way.

I still like one of the poems I wrote at 16. I'll accept that and NO other.

Edit. Just went and reread it. Turns out I don't like it 😭

That would be perfect silence for me. Don't think I'd mind it.

You know, I wouldn't be mad. However, I would hope they'd curate that shit. Some of my poems back then weren't bad at all. But, the ones that were bad were really bad; vogon grade.

I haven't written a real poem in years now, and it had been a while before that one. But I was bloody prolific as a teenager and young adult.

vogon grade

OK, now that's an interesting and uncommon reference

I'm glad someone caught it :)
