    Nowhere in the rhyme does it say Humpty is an egg.

      That’s actually a common misconception.

    Was looking up a source to say it was actually a cannon all along, and found out that apparently the guy who originally said that just made it up???

    Fun wikipedia page. I guess I’ll have to scrub that bit of misinformation from my brain now.

    Tl;dr No one really knows what the meaning was.

    Fun fact

    It doesn’t mention anywhere in the nursery rhyme that humpty dumpty is an egg :)

    This, in fact, is an excellent example of adhering to the prime directive.

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
