      we had memes in the 90s? I thought we were just fucking around with emoticons back then.

        Off the top of my head: dancing baby and Marylin Manson having a rib removed to suck his own member.

        Memes itself are way older than that though. Think about Kilroy and the ‘S’ you drew in school.

          I don’t know where that Manson rumor started but I do know that every single kid in my middle school all wanted to talk about it all the time. This was my first experience with being over saturated with a meme nearly to the point of physical violence. Absolutely no one would shut the fuck up about it ever and me not wanting to hear about it anymore made me the weird one.

        A meme is a recurring pop-culture action, phrase, or image. Text-overlaid pictures are a category of meme format with sub-categories of meme topics.

        Anyway, the parent comment probably meant text-overlaid pictures about 90s topics.

        We had taglines and bbs signatures. Those were pretty similar.
