YAASSS content:
• Ads/media where 'the man' tries to appeal to young people using their vernacular in a lame, pandering way
• Ads/media that tries to appeal to young people but is self-aware and/or well executed
Ratchet content:
• Children's media and commercials for children's products that don't involve inter-generational pandering (this isn't a place to collect all advertising and media that's aimed at kids) Nickelodeon/Cartoon Network/Disney/etc.
• Text messages, emails, PMs, or other forms of interpersonal communication not sent as an advertisement
It temporarily worked. They are interesting, even entertaining in some cases but i wouldn't describe them as funny outside of sheer absurdism.
It's the holds up spork of Zoomers.
even when used as sarcasm against millennials those memes are painfully dated:
I still see the board meeting memes being made every once in a while, I haven't seen any of the other ones in three years
The board meeting meme still has a lot of potential, imo but deep fried memes sometimes occur naturally through jpeg artifacts.
Its an old format for sure, but i live for the vitriolic spite it represents
