What does it mean, where does it come from, why are the memes so funny?

From what I understand, there was a subreddit called r/195. The idea was there is a "rule" that when you visit the subreddit, you have to make a post. So people would post a meme with the title "rule". 196 is an offshoot of that which was created when the moderators of r/195 shut it down because they got tired of moderating it
