Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cruel

We’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 Formats

Not 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

Sorry dude, you just haven't got the pallet for it. Not trying to shame or anything, I disliked alcohol for a long time so I totally get it.

But now? Holy shit, a good single barrel bourbon is quite literally the best tasting thing I can get on my tongue without going to a Michelin star restaurant. The complexity is off the charts. The flavor is amazing. I wish I could get it without the actual alcohol so I could drink more.

Hey now, my pallet is high definition lol; it’s just that I really dislike the taste of ethanol

I can pick out flavor profiles pretty well, especially since I have family members who enjoy doing so, but having a good sense of taste doesn’t mean I’m going to like everything I taste.

I’ll admit it is interesting to notice complex combinations and just interesting from the chemistry standpoint that we can create notes of fruits or vanilla just by selecting the right brewing container material. But complexity =/= goodness.

If you gave me the decision to choose between a well made Michelin Star level dish but with a strong flavor I greatly dislike (like fennel) or choose a basic homemade grilled cheese sandwich, I would probably take the sandwich
