Hello, all users of r/boneachingjuice!
We’ve noticed quite a few submissions from users that seem to be unsure of the brand of humor we appreciate here.
Firstly, we are a sub for edits of existing memes and comics. However, our tastes are more specific than that.
We here at r/boneachingjuice enjoy humor in the spirit of the original “bone hurting juice” meme[1].

But what does that actually mean?
Well, we’ve thought about it, and it basically comes down to this:
OUCH is an easy to remember mnemonic for the following:

(Why do we allow adding text? Well, the template[6] for the OG “bone hurting juice” meme just had J. Jonah Jameson pausing and laughing, not saying “It tasted good” and “Ow my bones hurt oof ouch”, so text was obviously added.)

Furthermore, the imagery can be edited in minor ways *if they are not needed for the joke to make sense*.
By editing the imagery too much to suit your joke, you can basically force the template to say whatever you want. Then what’s the difference between a normal meme and what you’ve just done?
Instead, let the template *tell* you what it wants to be.
Example[7] from u/ensellharbrish, that removes the text from the “Open” sign of the original[8] to turn it into a paper boat.

Reordering of panels is not allowed (again, you’re forcing the template to say what you want), but cropping of panels from a larger template is allowed as long as they don’t come from different parts of the template.
Example[9] from u/Amargosamountain, which takes only a few panels from the original[10], but only from one part of the template, and doesn’t reorder them.

Example[11] from u/Mrj760, which flips the entire template[12] to change its context.

EDIT: These and other blank meme templates are now not allowed.
~~We are aware that SrGrafo regularly makes meme templates that have a fill-in-your-own punchline contest attached to them. Some have already become a meme unto themselves, such as~~
~~Since these don’t actually have a punchline, there’s no real **C**ontext to shift. We will therefore make an exception for these and similar blank templates, as long as the edits produced are juicy enough.~~

If I could contribute something as well to this topic:
This[1] is a google doc made by a user named Fubz in the earlier days of /r/bonehurtingjuice that was originally part of the mods attempts[2] to define what BHJ was before it went off the rails. It's incomplete, but it's a good bit of information about what BHJ was originally about.

Also yes, the Jameson meme was the one that started the sub, but the first recorded mention of bonehurtingjuice online was this meme[3], per the KnowYourMeme page[4].

Petition to tighten up the definition of U in O.U.C.H. I've been seeing a lot of posts on this sub lately that aren't really unorthodox misinterpretations of meme templates. Often it'll just be a character asking for whatever happens in the next slide to happen to them, or the characters will make a meta reference to how oddly drawn they are. That is an overly literal (not to mention low effort and unfunny) interpretation of the meme template which falls under the definition of anti-meme.
