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

Like most fermented foods, alcohol is absolutely an acquired taste and if you haven't acquired it yet then I'd say you're not missing out on much of anything. I'm still not at the point where IPAs and hard liquor taste like anything except poison to me.
Asking as you're willing to have a (1) drink with folks socially, I'd say that's very true.
People who abstain entirely are not seen favorably by most people.
Yeah most IPAs aren't great. Hard liquor depends, whiskey can be good but most aren't that amazing, vodka is bad on its own, gin is almost all bad, rum is mid, other stuff really depends and most of it's better with something actually nice. I have a love hate relationship with a bottle of mead I got for my birthday last year (it's 50% but I kinda love meads). IPA should taste like the cans look tbh, they always have the silliest designs then I get let down by it just being IPA again.
Respectfully, entirely disagree on gin; it's made with flowers.
But – especially if you like citrus – the real joy of gin is the way you can play with flavors in many of its cocktails.
Entirely agreed on IPAs, though; there's so many more interesting beers out there.
