The good'old days of r/adviceanimals...
Back when I visited icanhascheesburger
I was big on memebase back then
Now they're mostly Twitter screenshots ;_;
We need to go back.
15? this is more like 20.
2006 we weren't posting image macros en-masse like this. They definitely existed but I don't remember seeing a lot of these until at least 2009-2010
Keep in mind the general population wasn't really on Facebook until 2007 and people weren't posting this stuff to myspace
I'm also being nitpicky and autistic about it so feel free to ignore me
yeah it was definitely more niche. i remember when the motiwational poster format made way to the advice dog format, and at that paint we banically just copy-pasted the images around different forums.
And things were better for it.
old people memes lol
!remindme 10 years "call this guy old"
As if I am not already an old fuck merely pointing out ownership by labeling these memes appropriately
no no no old people memes is ai slop posted by bots on facebook
Hey, mid thirties isn't old.
Hey, 39 is still mid thirties!
It's literally the end of thirties.
Mid to late 30s
lalalala not listening
Hey, we all come from somewhere.
We all come from the past.
This post is giving me psychic damage
what was up with the multicolor haxagonal-ish backgrounds?
It was the style at the time.
It's the hallmark of the "Advice Animals" category of memes.
Advice Animals [...] are a type of image macro series featuring animals [...] that are accompanied by captioned text to represent a character trait or an archetype that fits the role of a "stock character". While many Advice Animals use a color wheel background, some use unedited versions of the original photo.
