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

It's the meat to skin/bone/exoskeleton ratio. Same reason why we tend to eat chicken and turkeys but not budgies or sparrows.
That makes sense, i don't want to eat shrimp shells and all that. But that makes me wonder, would this be any good to eat?
Slimy yet satisfying.
Wichitty grubs, which can be similar in size to that bug, are great bush tucker.
Taste like peanuts right?
Depends on the wood they’ve been eating!
Very cool! I still wouldn't eat one raw, but I'd try it cooked I think
I learned recently that young cicadas are apparently really good when you cook them.
I can’t eat anything that looks like that, insect or seafood. I don’t even like shrimp!
Americans in the South fry tomato hornworms. Never had them but I hear they taste like tomatoes.
Pro tip: Hunt them at night with a UV flashlight.
