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 feel like this is more the iOS experience, personally.

Yeah, I've had iOS friends tell me that I didn't send images "as photos" because it didn't show up in their photos app when they download it, and that they needed me to "send it as a photo instead of a file". I'm like my brother in Christ, it's a jpeg, just figure out where you downloaded it to. Apparently it's confusing getting image files that weren't automatically imported into the gallery into the gallery, because it's typically seamless or something. So when they download a jpeg a certain way instead of having it sent on iMessage they get lost.

I've also had friends on iOS tell me that iPhones can't open zip files, and I'm like surely that's not true.

Apple knows your shit better than you (R)

I mean I relate to it on android, God forbid you want to find and edit a config file

Also google. To a lesser extent windows.

And between the iPhone's influence and the general disregard of Java for the local filesystem, we got... whatever the fuck this is.
