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

"I've only included relevant experience on the copy of my resume that you received" Couch experience isn't relevant. Hiking experience isn't relevant. Experience as the forgotten pawn of the machinations of capitalism isn't relevant.
Alternatively: "I'm not required to disclose medical information, and won't be discussing the matter any further."
Or fuck 'em: "Yes, but I will not."
It's called "text formatting." Look it up.
That question's always implied to me that the interviewer was stalling and hoping I wasn't paying attention —or they'd only skimmed the thing. Likely both.
Reply: "Which one do you need clarity on?"
I just learned about this. "I was on sabbatical"
Can always say you worked for party city or similar. Or x-twitter for that matter, seems like they pretty much don't have a functioning HR department, so who's going to stop you claiming you did whatever there
Don't lie on your resume.
As others have said, there's better answers than lying. From telling them that you only included relevant experinece, took a sabbatical to work on some passion projects, inform them that you do not have disclose medical information, to saying fuck-off.
The worst thing you can do is jeopardize a potential offer or your future employment standing by a flat out lie that's verifiable by a standard background check.
Lying on your resume is literally the game in a job market that wants five years experience in tools that have only existed for six months.
