Successful black man where have you been?
Trump has been in office. He went into hiding.
Venezuela.
There are no successful black men, and we’ll prove it by making sure they leave the country.
There was a time when all memes were demotivational posters.
Despair.com (apparently still around!) was my go-to back in the day for those
I miss those
It was a more civilized age back then…
We where supposed to build the future.
Got addicted to memes instead.
Sorry Gen Z
But those memes though

Wait, TikTok wasn’t supposed to be the whole future? /s
Ate too many Avocado Toasts for it and forgot to shake the job tree with all the jobs for us.

I remember when memes were just a picture of a duck with wheels or a gif of a dancing baby.
I remember when we sent memes via fax…
My ancestors inscribed memes on big-ass boulders.
Alright Gramma, let’s get you back to bed
You used to have to call the internet on the phone!
I wasted untold hours on the old quickmeme site.
There was a time before that too.
Yeah plain text based & image only memes
I put on my robe and wizard hat, that dancing baby gif, all your base, etc
There was also some push back on posting images with text embedded because it makes the text unsearchable/not compatible with screen readers at the time/forced font and color that can make it harder to read, but then the image macro sites took off that made it simple for anyone to create from a template and there was no turning back
there was also the motivational poster era, the “wut” year, whatever ytmnd was/is…
I’m surprised that All Your Base hasn’t made a comeback. I figured with the broken English, catchy phrase, and danceable tune it would surely trend again.
I dunno if it’s gonna take off (every zig)
It has no chance to survive

Back when racism was at least thinly veiled…

Agree. The whole point is to lean into a racist stereotype, and then subvert it.
I miss the veil
I missed this guy!

A simple crop turns it into a modern meme

Ah yes, people used to break the internet, now we’re breaking real life.

There was a time when memes were just dudes fighting snails in the margins of medieval manuscripts.

The past.
