Tay Zonday, Numa Numa, David After Dentist, Dramatic Prarie Dog…

Superbowl effect, they are all dead.

Dang…you beat me to posting it! D:

Cool.
Fortunately, this isn't enough to kill it.

Good…I liked those memes.

At least it wasnt parodied… Just showcased (except the dramatic chipmunk, they messed that one up).

0:34 'Flying saucer thing that takes people to confirmed world' :P

Beyonce was the best part of that ad.

The best part of all time. Of all time!

Seems that we got a double dose of memes this super bowl.
Here's yet another super bowl commercial with a well known meme.

I laughed last night when I saw it.

I had seen this last night, and as soon as the dramatic prarie dog came on I thought to my self……… FAIL.

Oh god.

The death of the internet is nigh.

When I first saw this commercial I was like They're taking mah internets away from me!

It was really inevitable, guys. The internet we've come to know and love has become so mainstream over the years that other medias such as television aren't afraid to expose what they can from it. This was the only sad future I saw for the internet since a few years ago. Media takes what it can from other forms of media and that's the damned truth.

Youtube is not underground. Millions of views online = better than a lot of cable TV shows.

Beyonce: not a meme.
Zombie: They weren't invented on the Internet, but the internet appreciates and makes a lot of them; much like cats.
David After Dentist: Millions of views. Been used on The Colbert Report.
Trailer for The Hangover: not a meme.
Weather widget: signifies that what we're seeing is "a computer." Also not a meme.
Dramatic Chipmunk: Classic Meme. Three years old. Around 56 million views between the top three instances. This is the opposite of an inside joke.
Twitter: is Twitter.
Ninja: See Zombie.
Mech, Alien Spaceship, Knight: signifies "video games"
Matt McAllister's 155 T-Shirts: 4 years old. 12 million views.
Numa Numa: millions of views across multiple videos on Youtube, and Newgrounds. He's done commercials for Geico.
Flickr: is Flickr. Owned by Yahoo!
Tay Zonday: True, 4chan is responsible for really kickstarting people's attention in Chocolate Rain, but he was embraced by mainstream media within weeks.
Facebook: is Facebook

The ad is for Vizio Internet Apps, integrated into Vizio HDTV's.

Nothing underground was spoiled in this ad. Tay Zonday and Facebook are not underground. Everything in this ad is and has been mainstream for a long time.
