    I was older than 30 when those memes came around.

    People say they want memes like we used to have back, only to flip out when a late 2000s/early 2010s style gmod thing blows up.

      Yeah honestly I only still like a lot of the old stuff because of nostalgia. If it all came back in full force it would get old quick.

      I grew up with gmod idiot box and dane cook bits animated with stick figures.

      I think the kids today are doing just fine, at least on the memes front.

    you can choose to not be like that.

    enjoy your old memes but realize you used to be a dumb kid too.

    I never understood the Damn Daniel meme. Like was it ever actually a meme, or is it a meme that it was a meme at all? Cuz I never actually hard anyone actually say that, aside from the occasional youtube poop video.

    Me trying to explain why anything was funny on YTMND to younger generations.

    Granted it’s hard for me to understand why most of it was funny to me either.

      Lots of young folks with time to dedicate to surfing were at the right age where lolrandom was peak humor. They were ripe to receive the shit posts of prodigious animators congregating on Newgrounds and Ebaums etc

    “Rizzler gyatt” doesn’t even make sense

      Yes. It does, boomer. Women can be rizzlers as well with their massive gyatts. A rizzler with a massive gyatt can rizz many men.

        I get the sense that you compensate for lack of gyatt by having rizz, but I suppose it can go either way. The thicc just ain’t quicc.

          So I should ask the doctor for quicc if I think I have rizz? Does thicc heal up the gyatt? And do both come as ointments? It’s like having clapback all over again.

          Rizz = charisma = good flirting. A rizzler is a person who flirts well.

          Gyat = Girl Your Ass is Thick. And is also used as an exclamation upon seeing a thick ass and a term for a thick ass in general.

          So rizzler gyat is a flirtatious girl with a thick ass.

          Also of note “sticking out your gyat for the rizzler” is the song that blew up those words would mean “sticking out your butt for the charismatic guy”

    Guile’s Theme Goes with Everything was my all time favorite meme. Followed closely by Chuck Norris jokes.

    These days I’m really into Bully McGuire.

    There’s a company near me with a product called “Damn, Daniel” and I refuse to buy it, look at it, recommend it, or discuss it with anything less than disdain.

    I try to stay open minded but geez, ‘gyatt’ really bugs me. It’s just a re-phoneticized spelling of half the phrase ‘got damn’, telephone-gamed into a noun somehow.

    I can enjoy or at least accept everything else but please. Stop talking about gyatt.
