Three of these can be heard on sight.

Objectively better than most memes today.

Thankfully, Bush will be gone soon and Americans will never be stupid enough to elect a President that terrible again.

[–] spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, we'll just get mega stupid because of a black president and elect the American Nazi Party leader to president.

[–] D_C@lemm.ee 8 points 7 hours ago

Ha, that will never happen.
Next you'll be telling me they'll elect a rapist reality TV star failed businessman who has numerous casino bankruptcies under his belt!!! Impossible.

I'm not trollllling, I'm boxxy!

Edited this to be a quote, so it's a bit more obvious that I'm not claiming to be boxxy

Oh hey I remember this obnoxious BS. I wonder what ever happened to her.

I don't care what anyone says, Dramatic Chipmunk will never ever stop being HILARIOUS

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 7 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

It's a prairie dog, though.

[–] LiamMayfair@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 9 hours ago

Ah, a fellow dramatic connoisseur.

[–] MrDrProfJimmy@lemm.ee 6 points 13 hours ago

Got any more room on this hill for one more?

[–] PrincessLeiasCat@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Piano cat and dramatic look gopher!

[–] LiamMayfair@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Actually, it's a prairie dog.

Source: obsessed over the damn meme for months, when the lifespan of a meme was measured in months, not days.

Haha that’s a fantastic story, thanks for sharing. I was also obsessed but didn’t track it down!

Rick Rolled my whole class a month ago. The person I passed the most time with this year didn't get it and found it stupid. I felt old. How did they live up to today and never heard about Rick Rolls

[–] proudblond@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

My kids’ music teacher did it. They were playing songs with boomwhackers and she had a YouTube channel going with songs and the video told them when to hit each note. Anyway the last one she did said it was Beyoncé but it was Rick. This was third grade and I’d say at least half of them got it.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 10 points 11 hours ago

Fortunately you were there to educate them.

As in, you are not going to let them down, not going to run around and desert them, not gonna make them cry, not gonna say goodbye, not gonna tell a lie, and hurt them... 🎶🎵

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 4 points 8 hours ago

This guy just Rick rolled us in a meme image.

Thank you, what a gem.

Everything from October 2007 to around 2014 in my memory is just a blur of TF2 updates and fun community events my server did.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 3 points 9 hours ago

piano cat is timeless!

Ah, I miss a time when memes were universal. I remember the first time I discovered Reddit and just scrolled r/f7u12 and laughed so hard I was in tears

[–] Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org 10 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

Alright. Lets go, 1, 2, 3, 4:

[–] Omega_Jimes@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 hours ago

No duckroll?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 12 points 14 hours ago

Okay, I've been at uni for two years and haven't really achieved much (what with this weird heaviness I'm feeling and my job and all) but I can totally graduate this year. I can almost taste it it's so close. Wow there are people who've been here for 10 semesters and still haven't graduated. What's that like? Haha, 4chan is so funny.

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 10 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I definitely didn't have a reaction image phone case in middle school. Definitely not. Nope. Stop asking.

[–] oxysis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Say about your reaction image phone case in middle school… how cringe was it?

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 7 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

As cringe as you can imagine. Rage comic era. Collage. Like 8. 🙃

[–] oxysis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 12 hours ago

Oh that is very rough, I’m sorry
