Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’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 FormatsNot 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

Neither are too bad honestly. The gorilla is not gonna hunt you or anything, you could just hide somewhere and wait the 24 hours out.

The snakes would probably be even less of a threat as they would find somewhere warm to chill and not bother you that much.

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 months ago

Strategy is opposite for either, hide from the gorilla, walk around and let the snakes hide from you (and avoid good snake hiding places.)

Canada goose will rip yer balls off.

"Don't you remember when that plane had to land on the river in New York 'cause Canada Gooses flew into the engine? It's 'cause Canada Gooses likely had intel there was a pedophile or two on board and took matters into their own hands. As they should!"

Always have

Geese and swans will fuck you up fo sho. They puff up all big-looking and just attack.

BAAAAWWWWWWW

Silverback, easily. The gorilla will be avoiding me too, and I won't step on it by accident.

[–] Bubs@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

What if the gorilla gets angry at you? Short of finding a large gun, I don't think there's any way to stop him.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

He'll probably charge me and then let me off with a warning. If we're assuming unusual behavior, then a team of black mambas could easily kill me too.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

I'll simply avoid making fun of him

[–] Bubs@lemmy.zip 12 points 3 months ago

That's a tough one. The gorilla is big and easy to spot, but if he ever gets angry at you, you're guaranteed dead. The snakes are harder to spot and numerous, but would be more predictable in their aggression as long as you don't accidentally startle them.

I think I would have to go with snakes. It's much easier to snake proof a roof than it is to gorilla proof a room. As long as there are no holes, snakes will never get in. You would need a full on barricade to stop an angry gorilla. Plus depending on the stores available, you could probably kill the snakes with little risk using traps or poison.

Are the stores left open? That sounds like a pretty good time

[–] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The gorilla goes from a threat to an accomplice. I bet he'd love to help raid the food court.

Me ensuring my survival by handing the gorilla a bunch of pretzels and bonding over our love of Auntie Anne's

At the prices they charge, it's more like they're robbing us. We're practically modern-day Robin Hoods in this situation!

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 6 points 3 months ago

Just for fun?

Coconut mall intensifies

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

Depends. What's in it for me? If the answer is nothing, then my answer is neither.

Wait, you get cheap beverages? Where!?
