Some communities have standards. We do not.
Have fun posting!

Welcome to loweffortmemes! This is your space for:

Posting memes that took you 30 seconds to make
Sharing weird, niche, or confusing content that doesn't fit elsewhere
Embracing the beautiful art of minimal effort, maximum vibes
Whatever random stuff makes you laugh (high effort memes welcome too!)

Community Guidelines:

No standards, but we still have rules: Just because we accept low-effort content doesn't mean anything goes. Normal instance rules still apply- don't spread hate, be civil to others, etc.
All memes are good memes: That meme you made in MS Paint? That oddly specific joke about your niche hobby? That high-effort masterpiece? That thing other communities thought was "too low quality"? All perfect!
Don't kill the vibe: We're here to laugh at dumb stuff together, so keep things chill and fun.

Let's celebrate the fine art of doing the bare minimum and somehow making it work (but also the maximum if that's your thing)!

TLDR: meme gud

I like black licorice. Well, the real stuff anyways. That synthetic flavor is terrible. The meme made me look up the real FDA warning lol

Eating large amounts of black licorice, particularly for those over 40, can pose health risks. Specifically, eating two ounces or more daily for at least two weeks can lead to serious health problems, including irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmia), high blood pressure, and even congestive heart failure. This is due to the presence of glycyrrhizin, a compound in licorice root, which can cause potassium levels in the body to drop.

So, the problem is for specific persons with already low potassium and high sodium in their systems, especially those people over 40, by eating at least 2 ounces of black licorice every day for at least two weeks

I like black licorice, but there's no way I would eat it daily for at least two weeks. It's just an occasional palate cleanser kind of thing.

Palate cleanser. For when you dont want the pesky sensation of happiness. It'll cleanse that right out.

If you want the cleansing to be thorough, try adding about 2% of Ammonium chloride to your Licorice.

2 ounces are about 56 gram. I love licorice, but eating that much every single day is a bit extreme.

I eat like, 300 grams at a time? But also not daily, it's just what the size of the packet is.
