This was made in 2009 and, well, its just gave me a flash back of before the days of "Rage Faces" and "Le" and reddit, and, it brings a warmth to my heart that i remember these old memes, because, i for one prefer these (except the sparta one) over "pony" bull shit or fucking "rage faces". Now whether or not you agree with me, i just wanted to show facepunch what the internet was like before these shitty rage faces and fucking Ponys...
Those are just as annoying as ragefaces imo.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35127320]I hate how most people these days think rage faces are the only memes.
I remember all of these memes being around... when memes were funny little internet injokes. Nowadays it's just people posting year old rage comics.[/QUOTE]
This. Seriously, their's quite a few good memes that never really get much in the way of attention.

Thank god, otherwise they'd probably suffer the same fate as ragefaces.
How about people bringing memes in real life, my chemistry teacher explaining how to do a problem then someone blurts out "COOL STORY BRO".
Oh god I've forgot about pingas.
Half of those were memes?

Ponies are a meme?
am I missing something

Their are times when it's ok to say a meme, if it fits into the situation. But yelling "Hurr Durr COOL STORY BRO/BRA/SIS/FAG etc" when someone's trying to explain something is just extremely retarded.
I miss CD-I mario/zelda :(
These aren't really that old, just forgotten now. Fucking Reddit and 9gag is the reason why though. Too many people spew out the "memes" from those sites now in real life.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35127557]Don't forget "memebase" for those shitty advice dog clones.[/QUOTE] I can't press the agree button any harder...
Honestly I judge the worth of shit like that on the nature of the content itself. I don't think something is stupid just because it has a rage face. But if its half assed, unfunny bullshit that the author is just trying to metaphorically cash in on the fad, then yeah, its stupid.
A lot of these memes were just as annoying as rage faces, perhaps even more. People will always overuse the living fuck out've memes.
Memes become unfunny once you see kids using them in real life.
I remembered the first time I saw Evolution of Dance.
Old memes got annoying at the time, but goddamn I think they were a lot better than this stupid rageface shit we got now.

Generally they look better than an outline of a man drawn fast shit.

I think that's generally the case with all memes.
I can do you all one better and return to the roots, man.
2007. Highest point of YTMND and when 4chan started getting big.

YTMND is kind of one of those awkward points in meme/fad history, because it's usually too old for people who like the OP's memes/were around when they were popular, and totally forgotten by the new generation of internet users.
Fucking memes being used in real life. I saw some chicks in my school wearing Nyan cat shirts, shirts with the troll face on it, shirts saying, "You mad?" "Cool story, bro," "I herd u leik mudkipz," and a bunch of other shit.
Hell, even my friend keeps saying, "YOU MAD BRO? YOU MAD? COOL STORY BRO SO I HERD U LEIK MUDKIPZ LOL I TROLLED YOU. STOP TROLLING. THAT GUY HAS A POKER FACE LOL."
Grrr.
All your base are belong to us was so catchy.

I tried out ebaumsworld.com just now and was shocked to see it still existed
Oh god the internet nostalgia.

I remember going to ebaumsworld back in 03. I visited the place like how I visit Facepunch; all the time.
You know it seems like memes with audio or animated elements have shorter lifespans than ones that are just still images or text.
"The balls are inert"
I miss that one.
All memes are unfunny. The're like inside jokes, but inside jokes are only funny when your sharing them among a small group of people, once it reaches "meme" status, its not funny anymore.
Although the things they come from can be funny, them as memes themselves are stupid.
