Depends on how obscure a meme is. At least with people in their 20ies, even the ones who arent internet people will know the more popular memes

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

That is definitely not true these days. Too much internet out there.

Unless it's badger, badger, badger era. These kids don't even know about Trogdor, the Burninator.

What?

I was a kid when that came out and definitely only know it because of "AntiqueMemes" content lol

Did you know Homestar Runner at all?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I always thought it was the same thing as Homestuck and avoided both!

Oh, you missed out so much. Fortunately, the site is still mostly usable, though last time I checked, the games did not work.

Used to watch Homestarrunner on dial-up.

Would take about 20 to 30 minutes to load a 3-4 minute toon.

Don't miss that part of internet antiquity.

I do miss when videos used to fully buffer though! Now, if I have a crappy connection and I pause to let the video load, it mostly doesn’t.
