Skate videos popularized the use of the fish eye lens. Music videos had people waving their hands around in the face of the camera because it looks cool through that lens. The idea was applied to still images, and this is the result.

It was the last decade of magic before the Chaos Lord drained all of it from the land.

Also, every video used a fisheye lense, it was the law of the land.

Look, it's the same every time a new gadget comes out and takes the world by storm only for it to become boring after a few years. If you weren't around in the late nineties it's hard to explain just how exciting fingers were.

In the 90's and 00's there was a photographic movement to take photographs with more depth using more hand and arm movement to make more dynamic images. Some say it came from comic book artists and others say it started as everyone doing the double thumb and index finger as a ergatz frame gide of what you were about to film, but this time you were the subject.

Anyways it got popular so people with cheap cameras and phone cameras started propping them up and trying to do some of it and most of the time they didn't have enough time to get their hands right. So they started to take all these pictures of themselves with weird hands and people started doing it on purpose, and then photographers picked up on the trend.

Well that big ass asteroid was coming in 2012 so we had to make sure and be ready to catch it. But since it's really big everybody had to work together to do so. Then we just yeeted that thing up like a volleyball and it went away. And that's why we're still alive today.

Even Limp Bizkit’s “Significant Other” album art did it.

It was pioneered way before 2000

Nu-Metal Pose, meant to be a way of "connecting with the audience"

To show they were not AI generated. At that time AI usually got the number of fingers wrong. 😉

That's when fingers began to fing

One might even say it was virtually insane of them to do this.

So there is precisely one photograph of me on the internet and you just helped me prove to my wife that it's actually me because I'm doing that pose. WHO ELSE WOULD BE THAT RIDICULOUS.

Yesssss I've been trying to win this argument since like May now I get to pick brunch today

Fisheye's became super popular because of skating is my uneducated guess

They had to prove they weren't ai

Same reason everyone started doing the stupid duck face shit in the 2010s then everyone started doing peace signs again.

The newest generation isn't immune to stupid shit just like every other decade isn't.

is the guy at the 3rd image Limp Bizkit?

It was before the invention of the duckface.

You ain’t goin nowhere!

This is being done today. Ever notice how Youtubers/streamers are always waving their hands across the screen like they're doing ninja chops or something.

MDMA and DXM is my guess

Casting spells, or maybe that was just me.
