I can’t believe I missed that out. You won all my Internets, good sire.

Yes, of course, but that’s just one. And it’s nothing compared to lolcats and will never be that popular either. In a month I’ve seen maybe 2 or 3 pants status. I’m wondering if something really strong and viral could come out of Twitter. Or it’ll remain only a way to show things that started elsewhere.

http://mashable.com/2009/04/24/daily-twitter-memes/ 24 daily Twitter memes? Really? Think Twitter is strong enough to spawn serious, long-lasting and viral memes? Just asking here.

Pedobear! <3 All time favorite. And lolcats. Also, not a favorite, but special mention for technoviking. RIP.

Jamie? Not really the “Johnny on the spot” type of person, is it not? You do know the Cold War is over, right? (Just asking.)

Have been quite busy these last few days and didn’t really take the time to take a look at all the changes. Seems quite good though. There is a thing that I couldn’t help but notice, though: “You don’t have permission to view that page.” That’s what happen when I try to access my Dashboard. I mean, shouldn’t I still be able to access it or something? ;)

Funny. I logged in here to open a thread about him. Was about goddamn time, this kid rocks life. I mean, seriously.

Of course. People are curious. They see that shit and want to know what it is, where it’s from. It’s been massively spammed on the chans recently. But if you filter a little: http://www.google.com/insights/search/#q=girugamesh&date=today%2012-m&cmpt=q It’s already diminishing. Quite a lot. The chans community know what it is about now, and are probably fed up. It all goes back to normal. (Until the next shitstorm?) It still has the forced meme status in my opinion. And should not be added, unless...

ooooh the fun, oh the fun! http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/04/27/time-magazine-throws-up-its-hands-as-it-gets-pwned-by-4chan/

For the record, it’s officially a forced meme since last march 9th or 10th. I’ll always remember that night. Girugamesh shitstorm forced me to take refuge in a shelter (like everyone else not wanting to an hero), but with my usual stupidity, I got locked in with sniper and Bawksy. Took me a week to clean the blood off my boots.

Yeah it’s from a commercial for Sakuracon, a stupid anime/Japanese/weeaboo convention in Seattle. Girugamesh is a forced meme. Can also, sometimes, refer to a Japanese Metal Band. But it’s mostly a forced meme. (I’d an hero myself if I were from that band. Or at least change my name or something. Seriously.)

Ashty won. But to quote a proud anon: “It was just a competition that /b/ entered way too late for it’s own good. Is the internet over now that Kutcher won? Nope. Infact, it might be better off. The power of Internet prevailed over the old media (CNN), youth over old people, fame over faith. The true winner here was Twitter. Basically, since we did a great job of fucking up their site, they were able to find the weaknesses, and are now able to code their site accordingly. In addition, all the huss and...

I think that’s the funniest part, actually. At least to me. There are quite a lot of subjects about this, but nobody really cares. And, I mean, why should we? :p

Update: as it is more than likely Basement Dad will never win that race, the new goal is to make Britney win the 1mil get. Anons are having a lot of fun right now it seems!

No agenda here, me believe. They decided to use this dude just so Kouchner wouldn’t have the get. (And seriously… giving the false Fritzl more views than Ashton or CNN does bring a lot of lulz!) And… err… Jamie? Never heard of Fritlz? The guy that kept her daughter locked in his basement and raped her for 24 years? You need to watch the International News from time to time. ;) (Also: he’s really Austrian, but somehow everyone got butthurt when Anon said he was Australian. So there you...

No, it is not. It can support a meme, though.

Nothing could be more wrong.

Linking a pic from 4chan… facepalm

Well, my position is still "you should add it in if the meme /needed/ the Internets to evolve and-or spread. So I’d say Ran Ran Ruu could fit in, but it’s so irrelevant that I wouldn’t bother adding it. I mean, who needs to come up here to know how it started? Know Your Meme is different than ED for it gives real and serious answers on how a meme started and evolved. I think you should let go anything that has no back story. tl;dr: unless you find something really interesting to say, fuck it.
