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

Is a transistor a door? Then doors (and it's not even close). Otherwise wheels because gears are wheels.

Glad I'm not the only one who thought transistor

I'd classify them more as gates, not doors.

Gates typically contain doors, yes?

Depends, I wouldn't say one of these has a door:

It does contain multiple gearwheels however...

I'm more likely to count individual bearings in a ball bearing as a wheel than a transistor as a door

Individual ball bearings are definitely wheels.
