dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in [email protected], it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I think it’s a holdover from the British colonial days. Puerto Rico has one too.

I keep forgetting that a lot of people on the internet were too young to remember/not born around the time of the handover in 1997.

My anime poisoned brain always remembers Neo-Hong Kong being the host country for the Gundam Fight tournament lol.
