Lately, people have been posting really old memes (Advice Animals etc), but I do like that. It feels a bit like gathering all the parts of recent internet culture that were actually fun and using them to start over.

I first read this in a french accent.

Only when I got to the second part did I realise that it was not in fact an accent.
