The older the internet gets, the more it’s like a city that keeps building on top of its own ruins. What’s is your favorite bit of internet archeology if memes are like artifacts and relics?

Technically that was a screensaver not a meme. How about the Oswald/Ruby band?

So many references from the pre-youtube era occupy a permanent part of my brain.

I’m in my 40s and Homestar/TGS/Sbemail quotes are more of my vernacular than I even know. I’ll watch an old toon with my partner and they’ll be like “THAT’S WHY YOU SAY THAT IN THAT WAY?!”
The system is down. There’s a swiss cake roll in your motherboard.
TGS and Group X got me through college.
Two hawt chaim and cheesus and two meester cokes.
I have to stop myself from making references, because it’s so old that they don’t land anymore.

When I was young and that video was new, one weekend I went to hang out with a bunch of friends. They were all quoting it and I hadn’t seen it. I was real worried about Al’s butt until someone showed me the video.

I wish I still had it, but circa 2009 I was in high school taking a web design class, one of our projects was to design a website for an amusement park, being a bunch of nerds in a programming class, we had some pretty weird ideas for parks, mine was MemeLand
Off the top of my head
The front gate was a big circle being held open by 2 hands (goatse, if you’re not familiar I recommend not googling that)
There was a picture on the wall of shame at the entrance saying that Milhouse was not permitted (Milhouse is not a meme)
The tallest roller coaster was the Longcat
A leekspin Ferris wheel
A petting zoo full of cats, mudkips, badgers, and other meme critters
A chocolate rain log flume ride
The RickRollerCoaster
A dark ride “Queen Boxxy’s Castle”
There was a drop tower sort of ride sunken into a deep hole called THIS IS SPARTA
A gravitron ride sponsored by Blendtec
One of the food options available in the park was NONE Pizza with Left Beef.
Bawls was the only beverage option.
Remember, it’s not “Somebody set us up the bomb!”, it’s “Somebody set up us the bomb!” The Engrish is so bad it’s hard to use the original syntax!
