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 don't have anything against artificial meats, but I would be pissed.

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 1 month ago (4 children)

I feel like this wasn't the first straw, so to speak.

Turkey is overrated, let's make buffalo wings the new traditional meat

[–] Confused_Emus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago

Seconded. Anyone ever seen a buffalo fly? They clearly aren’t using them anyway.

[–] socsa@piefed.social 3 points 4 weeks ago

Hah I literally proposed this at Thanksgiving this year.

Wait, are we related?

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Has anyone ever made buffalo wings with turkey wings instead of chicken? Hmmm...

Quorn Turkey Roast is pretty good.

Also, turkey is garbage meat.

[–] kogasa@programming.dev 8 points 4 weeks ago

Turkey is delicious. Big skill issue

The question is whether expectations were just not met or whether lying was involved.

Serving food under false pretense is not OK. People should be informed what they are consuming.

I wouldn't want to be served meat in something otherwise vegan just because they think it doesn't count.

Looks like the fight was semi successful given that shiner on the left eye

ITT: People with skill issues when it comes to turkey.

[–] oatscoop@midwest.social 3 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

People would be saying the same thing about brisket if that was the traditional Thanksgiving meal.

Turkey is a surprisingly unforgiving meat being made by a lot of home cooks that don't that don't actually know how to properly prep and cook it.

The picture is probably AI or the post itself is AI. I couldn't find the actual post from Fox News. All I could see is social media posts posting this screenshot.

(This is the most meta thing I've done.)

[–] grindemup@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

Why can't it just be fake (like Photoshop)? Shit man does everything gotta be AI these days? 🥲

If that is not an AI image I will eat my hat

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Give one reason why someone would need to create an AI image of a guy with a black eye.

Those images are found all over the internet. It is literally easier to just pick one from a search engine than it is to generate one.

It also hasn't got the dynamic range AI images have.

[–] DrSteveBrule@mander.xyz 6 points 4 weeks ago

I'm not going to claim that image is AI but there are tons of AI images that exist that could easily be substituted for real and already existing images. There is so much AI bullshit out there that has no reason for existing, yet it does.

All I'm saying is that the inverse would be talked about for years

[–] BigBenis@lemmy.world 24 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (4 children)

No it wouldn't be. I grew up vegetarian and I regularly had people sneaking meat into my food, giggling after I ate it and mocking me for "no longer being vegetarian". Nobody ever cared.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah that's normal unfortunately. Decking them for it on the other hand…
