first meme you remember
For me I think it was lolcats
>>768458398
For me it was Millhouse
>>768458487
It has never been a meme
earliest I have. dancing baby or hamsterfag usurps this easily.
>>768458398

>>768458398
This cat always gave me an uncanny feeling even when I was younger. It’s probably. A shopped or stuffed figure but still it just looks weird
>>768458881
ah yes! but maybe it was more of a geek reference back then maybe a proto-meme

remember xiao xiao stick fighting? came out when the matrix was getting big. Heard they modeled some of the sequel action scenes after the xiao animations.

This was absolutely everywhere in the 70s. I guess it replaced "Kilroy was here" for my generation.
>>768458881
the father of all.
First time I saw this was in the 90's as a Starcraft cheatcode.
I remember being like
>But this sentence isn't right what's going on?
>>768458398
Andre the giant has a posse
>>768460268
>>768460525
>>768460549
I think I should have said "internet" memes
>>768460311
>the father of all
For internet memes that's actually >>768460012
For memes in general, the oldest known is pic related "SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS"
gets me every time
>>768460605
Too late now
>>768460613
explain this sator thing plz?
>>768460605
Then I'd have to say it would be a tie between the dripping blood bar gif, the spinning goat skull gif, and/or the "under construction" gif, as seen on every Tripod and Geocities site ever made.

It's a palindrome, also works vertically which is why it's in the square. No one is entirely sure what it's supposed to mean, we just know it was a meme that started in ancient France and lasted about 2000 years. Also its meaning was something like "The sower is at the plow."
"Where the beef?"
I was probably 5 years old when that ad campaign started running.
>>768458522
Milhouse not being a meme is the meme.
>>768460840

>>768461007

You're fired.
>>768458487
kek
I remember lurking the "it took a crane to get it out" thread
>>768460840
ABRACADABRA is a lot older than that.
>>768461184
as a palindrome? cause it's not
>>768461184
Naw, they're both from the roman empire, but abracadabra came later.
>>768458398
Yup, op got it for me, too. I was about 12 at the time.
Damn kids.
>>768461253
>>768461342
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
works perfectly
jokes aside: when you read it from right to left you get ARBADACARBA
not a palindrome

it is alive, but barely kicking.
Not even doom music can save it though.
>>768458398
My first meme was also lolcats. This pic right here is what brought me to 4chan for the first time.
>>768465712
thing is nowadays I really don't get why we were so crazy about this
>lol it has intentionnal typos lol
On a side note, the first time I saw this was on vanilla wow forums, this is where I also heard about 4chan the first time.
All your base was probably the first one I ever heard. When I first found 4chan Longcat and Lol wut pear was the fist I remember seeing.
I'll be there in 30 minutes. You old fags with your fingerboxes know what's up.
