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

What about Carlin? Haven't heard cringe about him but .... Wondering
He's unlikely to make a new special
Fair.
And his stuff aged like a fine wine
Still holds up
Got a little dark towards the end. Not wrong per se, just. Not lighthearted.
He was lighthearted?
Early on. Even in the 80s.
I mean, who doesn't remember he was Mr. Conductor?

Oh shit he was. Sorry I never watched thomas the tank engine. My first carlin experience was him jerking off on the phone with his mom or something?
Yeah, You Are All Diseased wasn't exactly a fun comedy show.
Carlin is a lot like the book 1984, in that every point of view on the political spectrum thinks it's about/for them.... leftists love him because he hated religion and republicans, right wingers love him because he hated political correctness and hippies, and both sides just ignore all the shit he said they don't agree with....
.....he that sounds just like the bible too!
edit: Jacob Geller just did a video on this actually.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cdowB9udPc
