For when you need a laugh!

The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!

But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

While religion figures will often try their best to extract money, it's still "free to play", and I would say occupies mind rather than body.

I think for-profit healthcare is a better example in this case - literally charging you to keep your body alive (E: though capitalism a whole and its commodification of the things we all need to survive in addition to healthcare like water food and shelter would also qualify).
