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

A gear is called a tandwiel in dutch. Which translates to teeth wheel.
So those are wheels and they are everywhere.
Fair, but I think when somebody says "wheel", they're talking about the things on cars or bikes or chairs or whatever that help it move
Counting gears and such just seems way to technical for a casual debate between friends at a bar
At least, for me. But every friends group is different
It's called a cogwheel in English
Look, I'm not about to let Dutch tell me what's a wheel and what isn't. 😉
