I love everyone in this thread building the case for the OP. As you can see, memes are unfunny, boring, and worthless. See the post above mine for the clearest proof.
Been online and on forums since '99 or '00 and can confirm that gaming communities online have deteriorated in the past ~4 years due to memes. Memes all suck. Yes, no exceptions. If it's a meme it's shit and you would have been better off stating what you intended to state in plain English or whichever language you were communicating in.
Hampster Dance was around since 98 or so. Memes predate your user experience.
Have you ever considered
And hear me out
You might be boring as fuck
OP is capable of having original thoughts and ideas. That's boring.
Literally old man yells at clouds
I would pay EviLore directly for access to an On Topic sub-forum where memes are bannable.
I probably would. Heard it was hot shit back in the day. But if it's not anymore, I don't want to pay $10 for something subpar. Although I'm sure SA has their own memes, so it's probably a wash.Why not just head over to SA and pay them for a membership? I don't post or read it much anymore, but I still stand by that $10 as some of the best money I've ever spent. I love their Ask/Tell forums.

Most of you would be immediately eaten alive at SA, so...
Memes were alive and kicking back in those days too.
Talk about rose tinted glasses.
Yeah but the worst that could happen is you'd get probated for 6 hours unless you were really not even trying to fit in.

Memes are like, everything in history
I mean, why would our ancestors make these figures if not for the lulz?
Memes are not some kind of recent phenomenon. OP's claimed halcyon days of the internet were plagued with All Your Base, Mr. T Ate My Balls, Hamsterdance, l33t speak, and all the other memes of its day. It's an inevitable result of mass media. In the TV era they were called "catchphrases."
As far as memes go, the Guile theme goes with everything meme is perhaps the best one since it doesn't get annoying.Guile Theme goes with everything (Maury)
Guile's Theme Goes With Landon Donovan!!!
Also the internet is a better place because of dat boi and caveman sponge bob
Like others have mentioned, they were not everywhere. I've been on forums since 1996. I don't know what hamster dance is.
