someone posted an old meme. memers memed in response, and we are now living blissfully in the eye of a cat-5 meme tornado.

Seems safe to say we've moved into cat-5e territory at this point.

How do any memes start?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Someone doesn't let the memes be dreams.

Don't let your memes be beans.

[–] Dee 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No it's okay, we're doing old memes so technically beans still count.

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

Technically, old memes are “memes that happened before now”, so I guess this checks out…

[–] Rootiest 3 points 1 year ago

Ah yes, wet memes.

When you're having a really good meme and.. well you know.

Dude.... You're not mysogynistic right?

[–] Viking_Hippie 4 points 1 year ago

How not?

...damn, that doesn't work

Why do we use this meme to ask about things if the whole point of the meme is you won't ask? It seems like a bad use of the template.

Btw, I have no idea how it started either. My guess is people just had old memes saved and wanted to post them to give more content.
