Probably not worth worrying too much, but it is important to keep in mind the terms of the site. Your cute or clever meme may end up on a T-shirt.

Yeah, I'm really not concerned about that. Honestly, it's about what I would expect. Especially since they're totally fine with breaking off the agreement for anything you choose to delete, if they haven't already used it.
They already have a store, but I don't see them trying to sell anything based on user uploaded content although it seems to be within their rights if they wanted to.
That's just the standard disclaimer anyone would use if they allow user submitted content. If you change your service in the future, then you need to protect yourself from litigious users.
