I would settle for Lemmy understanding how to use this meme.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah, OP kind of got this backwards.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

I assumed it meant that 2012 was too new.

[–] Ajen@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Unless they just forgot a hyphen. There's a big difference between "post-2012 era memes" and "post 2012 era memes".

AMR moderator meetings look more like this.

Glory to Arstotzka

[–] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 years ago

Seems like Lemmy is pretty happy with that option

Let's go back further

Lets go chocolate rain

Some stay dry and others feel the pain

I move away from the mic to breathe in

Are 10 yr old memes really considered vintage?

[–] MetalFingers@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

10 years might as well be a hundred in internet time

[–] AlwaysNowNeverNotMe@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago

10 years is good enough for scotch, and at 25 it's a classic. So ya seems as good a bar as any.

Well yeah, that'd be the year Wind Waker came out (remember getting it at launch) so that's vintage to me.

Edit: oh fuck no I've just realised. That was 20 years ago.

Just before joining Lemmy, I made a modern updated version of this comic if that helps.

Let's celebrate chueginess together with !2010spics@midwest.social !
