Austin went this way back in the '00s.

The city leadership decided throwing tons of events would boost business in the city. So you took this kinda quiet college town and juiced up with an endless parade of car races, festivals, and corporate events without ever building out public infrastructure.

On top of that, downtown kept expanding well past the point that the traffic can accommodate it.

So you just get these nightmarish jams all through the city constantly.

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
