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'm thoroughly lost. Where did I use any variation of that?

While I'm here, you've reminded me of another issue: I use the "swipe/glide" typing feature on Android all the time, and it routinely screws things like that up. Yet another reason to not be too critical since the person may know the correct usage, but didn't notice the technology fail.

It was a joke. I purposely picked a word you didn't use and made a common grammar correction comment.

I was being pedantic is a sarcastic way.

Story of my life. They're and their, your and you're, don't and didn't for some reason.
