I would settle for Lemmy understanding how to use this meme.

Yeah, OP kind of got this backwards.

[–] samus12345 11 points 1 year ago

I assumed it meant that 2012 was too new.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Unless they just forgot a hyphen. There's a big difference between "post-2012 era memes" and "post 2012 era memes".

AMR moderator meetings look more like this.

Seems like Lemmy is pretty happy with that option

Some stay dry and others feel the pain

I move away from the mic to breathe in

Are 10 yr old memes really considered vintage?

[–] MetalFingers 12 points 1 year ago

10 years might as well be a hundred in internet time

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

10 years is good enough for scotch, and at 25 it's a classic. So ya seems as good a bar as any.

Well yeah, that'd be the year Wind Waker came out (remember getting it at launch) so that's vintage to me.

Edit: oh fuck no I've just realised. That was 20 years ago.

Just before joining Lemmy, I made a modern updated version of this comic if that helps.
