What makes this great is that Age of Empires II came out in 1999. Windows XP came out in 2001. Meaning Ensemble Studios was using one of the most popular photos of all time before it was cool.

Age of Empires II did it first

H-------- was this one a pain ever since wikis went from PNGs to WEBPs but I did it Next one is 2008 Part 2 but that will be another long break inbetween since these take such a long time to do
This one morphed from being about memes and more about internet history as a whole. I really didn't wanna litter the ground with just Advice Animals so I put as much I could here I kinda abused the grape vineyard in the middle, mainly due to how many memes n images tended to only show the bottom half of the person. Leeroy is kinda just standing there. A few of these reference YTMND, Sabrina is there simply for the fact she was there at the time, same with Ian and Anthony. My biggest stretch was DEUUUEAUGH which I debated on adding back n forth. There is a lot of empty space simply because I didn't wanna repeat too much from the previous one
While less fitting of Bliss I decided to deal psychic damage but also nostalgia for some who went through middle n elementary school during these times. Like the last one I will be making a Part 2 to fill in all the things I missed. To refer to a previous comment on the last one here we got Grand Dad instead of Fortran
