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

I have in fact not met any asshole cats, the worst i've experienced is cats outdoors who scurry away when approached.
If a cat is "an asshole" then something is probably wrong, maybe it has an injury/disease that no one realizes because cats instinctively hide that, or it's being mistreated somehow without people realizing it.
All the cats i've gotten close to have been lovely, not necessarily actively cuddly at all times but if they don't want snuggles it will be quite obvious and then i just leave them alone and that's that.
Replace “cat” on that argument with “person” and it sounds a lot like dating someone because you plan to “fix them” or think “if I just love them enough”
I don’t like like cats because they remind me of shitty people I’ve dated.
Edit: and the immediate downvote (or arguments in real life) reminds me of times when you say “hey… your partner is kinda mean to you sometimes” only to hear “YOU DONT KNOW THEM LIKE I DO!!! THEY LOVE ME!!!”
Wrong guess again.
I have two cats, sisters from the same litter. One is an asshole that only shows affection for the two hours before feeding time. The rest of the day is pure asshole.
The other one who grew up in literally the same situation from birth is generally pleasant.
