Internet memes

For all of you who saw the Interwebz grow.

Here is a huge timeline with the populars memes that appeared over the years. It gets a little thin if you go back beyond 1999, but there's still the Oracle in 1989

I think I need to watch Benny Lava again.

But hell, I don't think I even have time to scroll through that entire timeline, never mind look at all the memes I never knew about.

There are things there I haven't heard of and things I think that are missing. Great find.

One of my recent favourites still has to be Garfield without Garfield. Pure gold.

I'm not dissing the link, it's a remarkable piece of work--someone put in an amazing amount of effort. I'm just afraid it's going to suck me in.
