This is the low-hanginng fruit I came here to upvote, if not post myself had I been faster.
Remember when they were jokes instead of regurgitated ad slogans?
Remember when memes were just asking if you remembered a thing
What a minute!
We don't have that brand here, so whenever people would quote that slogan online, I thought it seemed kind of sinister, like a quote from a horror film/game. I was so disappointed to find out it's just a snack brand :(
They're terrible cookies never buy em.
rewrites the quote on twitter, screenshots it, and posts it back on lemmy
Back when the concept of a cat eating a cheeseburger was the pinnacle of comedy?
It still is. We've been going downhill ever since.
I dunno, the cat playing a keyboard really gave the burger cat a run for its money.
That cat's grammar and spelling were terrible, and it was hilarious.
I remember when "meme" ment an idea that had caught on in the public mind, not any image with text slapped on it.
I broke around the time my coworker started referring to funny videos or pictures as memes.
Hell yes! At least the demotivational posters were in dark mode!
I remember when they moved or you could interact with them via FLASH.
And you could right-click to rewind instead of waiting until the gif finished
THANK YOU.
