(Tom) 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 should be allowed

Quality vote should stay

(Sam) 1 shouldn't be allowed

For (Sam) 2, I feel like reposts of the top ten posts or posts from the past week shouldn't be allowed

(Sam) 3 could be allowed depending on (Sam) 2

(Sam) 4 would be hard to verify depending on the popularity of it outside of subreddit. I personally have a few antimemes that I would love to post but I didn't make them, so I'd say (Sam) 4 should be allowed

(Sam) 5 should be allowed

I hope school and work and life overall goes well, and I can't wait for that website :D

I don't think 4 should be allowed because it has a punchline

This is just the philosophical debate of what the difference is between something being ironic and having a punchline.

It’s cut and dry. A pun is a joke formed by the deliberate misapplication of a word with multiple meanings. There’s nothing inherently ironic about that, though something can be ironic and still a pun.
