They just don’t make memes like they used to, and none of us can just run in without fearing the wrath of strangers. The folks who take games too seriously won.
Maybe not everywhere, but multiplayer games for sure have more serious elements to them than I ever thought.
In a way, this is what I wanted back in the 90s when so few people understood the potential of video games as a serious art form.

Ya rly!
internet’s oldest memes
2005
Dancing baby would like a word
Chewbacca would like a word.
Chewbacca ate my balls.
You get it
Yeah that’s maybe youtube’s oldest meme (probably not), not the internet.
One of. Not the oldest meme, one of the oldest.
Dancing baby was way before youtube existed
There was a lady lawyer show on TV called ally mcbeal and she was like crazy or something and used to hallucinate the dancing baby. I don’t remember it that well as it was an old people show and I was a kid but yeah way before youtube
Dancing baby was everywhere, truly the first Internet driven viral phenomenon. And yes, it did feature in Ally McBeal which was a huge TV show mid-late 90s which goes to illustrate how truly viral the dancing baby meme was at a time where Internet usage was still limited to only a minority of people with access to desktop computers.
I meant leroy, not the baby.
Wait, what? Ask A Ninja uploaded a new video?!
It’s been - what? - 14 years since the last one…
Is the internet coming back alive again? Is nature healing?
Homestar Runner released a video too!
Ask a ninja is back! He’s been uploading at least once a week for a couple weeks now.
Man, reading that old 2005 PC Gamer article really brings me back to older, better and happier times of gaming journalism too. It even mentions the bundled DVD with demos, mods and goodies you’d get each month. Those really were the days.
Sure but… I’m subscribed to Humble Monthly. So instead of getting a CD with a magazine containing a bunch of demos, I get a bunch of keys for full games. A lot of them pretty neat indies.
For gaming news… Well, on Lemmy there’s this guy.
Not a guy
Wish leeroy wasn’t staged man. Biggest disappointment.
We’ll always have the memories from before we knew.
He’s done a couple new ones, exact same format and theme song and everything. It was surreal having that pop up in front of me.
hahahha oh man, I’ve never seen that. that’s really funny.
Still one of my favorite memes of all time.
