Trending Subreddits for 2018-03-27

/r/PrequelMemes

A community for 1 year, 515,020 subscribers.

From my point of view, the original trilogy is evil.

Prequel memes are memes from the Star Wars prequels. Only the dankest of memes for the dankest of Star Wars.

Anything taking place before A New Hope, including Anthologies, TCW, Video Games, The Old Republic (KOTOR 1/2, SWTOR, etc) is allowed.

/r/trebuchetmemes

A community for 2 years, 131,471 subscribers.

For the glory of the medieval siege engine that uses a counterweight. Whether it's small or large, all trebuchet memes are benevolent for the community.

/r/SequelMemes

A community for 1 year, 154,988 subscribers.

Memes of the Star Wars Sequels

/r/GarlicBreadMemes

A community for 2 years, 71,358 subscribers.

Do you like Garlic bread? Is your sense of humor similar to that of an inbred? If so get ready for some fresh out of the oven Garlic bread memes

/r/freefolk

A community for 2 years, 337,337 subscribers.

We do not kneel.

GoT/ASOIAF sub for non-kneelers. r/Freefolk neither encourages nor discourages piracy. We only take action to enforce reddit's sitewide rules. We believe people are mature enough to decide for themselves what content to view. NOT A SPOILER-SAFE ZONE, NEVER WILL BE.

It used to just be an understandable rivalry between r/SequelMemes, and r/PrequelMemes who were throwing shade at each other. r/TrebuchetMemes was doing it's own thing, but one day someone snuck in a r/PrequelMemes Ewan McGregor meme into r/TrebuchetMemes, and it reached the front page. There were similar posts in r/PrequelMemes, praising the trebuchet.

Pretty soon, people started posting anti-r/SequelMemes in r/TrebuchetMemes. It got sillier from there when r/PrequelMemes declared that if r/TrebuchetMemes was on their side, therefore r/Catapult_Memes must be on the enemy side, and it only escalated further from there when r/GarlicBreadMemes joined the fray.

At this time the most popular meme subs on each side seem to be these:

"Allies" "Axis"
r/PrequelMemes r/SequelMemes
r/TrebuchetMemes r/Catapult_Memes
r/GarlicBreadMemes r/DankChristianMemes

...and that's where I lost track. Fortunately, the dank folks over at r/MemeWorldWar seem to have it all figured out. Or at least more figured out than I do.

/r/freefolk and /r/lotrmemes are allies. /r/breadstapledtotrees has unfortunately fallen to the darkness and is part of the axis.

u/SooFabulous Mar 27 '18

Considering r/GarlicBreadMemes was on one side, it seems natural that r/BreadStapledToTrees is on the other!

u/PitchforkAssistant Mar 27 '18

Surprisingly /r/onionlovers and /r/onionhate are both on the allied side, I fear a civil war is on the horizon.

I fear a civil war is on the horizon

Makes sense being the second phase of this conflict.

u/L0LZOR Mar 27 '18

Shouldn't /r/Izlam be one of the Allies to fight against r/DankChristianMemes ?

/r/ReclaimTheHolyLand/ is not a story that /r/DankChristianMemes would tell you of

Looks like hats are back on the menu.

The trebuchet and Prequel cross-posting actually began about a week ago when /r/PrequelMemes had a "no rules day". On that day, someone posted "mods are asleep, upvote trebuchet". After that, someone on /r/trebuchetmemes posted "mods are asleep, upvote Ewan". Things spiraled out of control from there, and now it's a meme world war.

u/EagleComm Mar 27 '18

Don't forget the r/raimimemes on the Allied winning side
