    Hell I’m young enough my generation’s stupid shit was posted to the internet. We yoloed and had rage comics about le epic bacon, as we asked what the fox says and sang about Friday and calling us maybe, and now it’s cringe but it’s also good memories of our youth. Hell that doesn’t even touch on the hell that was the homestuck kids (who are now adults, many even have ok taste now). And it all happened right here on the devil’s own internet. It’s still up as Tumblr likes to dredge up from time to time.

    Someday 67 will be that for the kids these days. And more will come. Some may be like rickrolling and become classic, but in a less omnipresent form, while others will be like homestuck and be weirdly influential on future culture when you look at how terrible it is in retrospect. But it’s theirs to do.
