What Fits into The Subreddit[edit | edit source]
Fuck it to death, in other words you have to make it despacito enough. Take a bad meme and make it worse, which can be a bad and unfunny meme a cringe image, or a bad "deep" meme.
Top 5 Posts[edit | edit source]
Rules[edit | edit source]
- 1. Fuck the meme to "Death"
- 2. Post Source/Origins in the comments. Make a top-level comment with a link to the source/origi (i.e. the meme that you ruined). Make sure everyone here can easily access the original image! Upload it to imgur or your butthole if necessary.
- 3. Discriminator 2000 (Do not discriminate) Do not hate minorities and certainly not majorities.
- 4. Mom knows best (No Banned Memes)
- 5. Your are promoted to cstomer. Do not promote your stuff here. We are not a bulletin board where you can post stuff about how you want us to check your 3 subscriber youtube channel or your dumb "dark humour" discord.
- 6. Don't be unwholsome 0 😤😤, nothing too edgy that would go against the reddit TOS. this includes but is not limited to posts glorifying/calling for violence and sexualization of minors (even when it's just used as a punchline to the joke). discrimination/ha

On December 18th, mod u/lets_clutch_this would announce a second r/ComedyNecrophila necro contest, it would follow the same rules as the first contest. It would be extended until the end of February 2022 due to the small amount of submissions. The contest would receive around 80 submissions, a somewhat large step up from the 49 submissions in the last one, thus it was decided to have a 16 meme bracket instead of an 8 meme bracket. The winning entry would be Toothpaste Hair by user u/ImA_NormalPerson987. With the other entry coming in just 8 votes shy of 1st place. The top 4 would receive discord nitro gifts, the top 2 would receive a hall of fame mention and the winner would receive their post being featured in the subreddit sidebar for one week.

PizzaCakeComics Ban[edit | edit source]
On March 12th 2023, a popular genre of memes on r/ComedyNecrophila (PizzaCakeComics) would be banned on the subreddit due to them being constantly posted and the subreddit becoming somewhat stale. The comic series would actually go viral thanks to the subreddit as many would use the artists' comics and exploit them to make something new out of them. The users of the subreddit wouldn't be very happy with this change, as the announcement would get constantly upvoted and be stuck at 0 votes. The PizzaCakeComics memes would finally be unbanned after someone solved a mod riddle that would once again unban the meme on the 27th of April.
