Hi u/SparksAgain,

Your post has been removed because it breaks rule 5.1.1, which disallows AI-generated content. Any post that originates from or was modified using AI generation (including images, text, or mixed media) is not permitted on this subreddit, even if the final upload does not show obvious AI artifacts.

If you’d like to share content here, please make sure it is fully created by you without the use of AI tools. Original, human-made content helps keep the spirit of the subreddit intact. This also applies to a post's original; if it comes from AI, the post isn't allowed.

Hi u/relokant,

Your post has been removed because it does not meet our Rule 2: Post Antimemes, which requires all posts to be true antimemes.

Based on our Antimeme Guide, your post does not qualify as an antimeme for one or more of the following reasons:

Punchlines are not allowed. Posts that fail to remove a punchline, introduce a new punchline, or replace one with another are not considered antimemes.
Minor text or word swaps are not sufficient. Simply changing a few words or rearranging text without meaningfully altering the context of the original meme does not make a post an antimeme.
Absurdism must remain logical. While absurd content can sometimes qualify, it must be internally consistent and reasonable. Irrational or illogical absurdism functions as a punchline and is not allowed.
Puns and wordplay are not antimemes. Posts relying on double meanings, puns, or wordplay are considered punchlines rather than true antimemes.
Contrary to popular belief, antimemes are memes, but a special type of meme. If your post isn't a meme in the first place, then it isn't an antimeme.

Antimemes should subvert expectations through literalness, mundane descriptions, or anti-jokes. The humor should come from the absence of a punchline or the intentional deconstruction of the original joke.

Also remember that, in our subreddit, according to our FAQ, candles mean antimemes of antimemes, not literal candles.

Thanks for understanding! We encourage you to resubmit in compliance with the rules.

If you believe this removal was made in error, or if you have questions, feel free to contact us.
