That was only 9 years ago? Maybe I'm not that old.
Right? I would have guessed closer to 15.
Yeah why does it always usually feel the other way around (XYZ thing happened 15 years ago?? I thought that was last year!) but for this one I had the same reaction as you, "only 9 years?".
Obama was still president. How's the age now? I feel like it's been an eternity. Not a limbo type of thing, but more of a "Different Strokes" theme keeps playing but skips right back to the beginning before hitting the chorus...for so many years...
All while showcasing his own from the opposite angle. I believe he got banned as a result but not sure if it ever was rescinded or just expired. Classic either way
Expired if I remember right.
Yes, he got banned for a year or something.
An IT professor just told me he had to go over basic hygiene with his class. Sometimes stereotypes exist because they're true.
It's funny, I visited a technologie University the otherday. It was open to the public. Two student were talking about a 3rd one. Saying the guy didn't wash and spent his time studying.

So is lemmy just geriatric millennials reliving their reddit heyday?
The community is called c/antiquememesroadshow, so that's kinda the point there.
I'm talking about it's presence on r/all (or whatever you call that on lemmy).
There was recently a "movement of the month" or however you'd call it where everybody decided to post vintage memes, and I think somebody seized the opportunity to make a space for it and ride the wave.
Last month, it was beans.

Lemmy has very limited content right now - don't like it? Start creating your own content, maybe it'll make it to the top of all as well
I see Reddit's toxicity is leaking into lemmy.
You are in antiquememes sooo...yes?
In the sense that we are trying to get back to a time when our platform of choice wasn't a cesspool, yes.
I mean, in this specific community? Yeah... Just look at the name.
We are just regular millennials. Oldest millennials are in their 40s.
Yeah that's me! Early 1981 birthday

The fucking prayer hands 🙏 🤣
Didn't he get banned or something too?
Yes. For a year or so.
Pictures you can smell.
The aroma of stale cheap pizza, days old sweat, and poop.
I never realized how important MtG was to the plumber community.
Why have I never noticed that he has gas station pumps tattooed on his knuckles lmao
They're letters. Not sure which ones, but definitely letters. Just a weird font. I definitely see what you're saying though.
Alright yes those are definitely letters now that I zoomed in but 
what I'm talking about for those that don't see it
110% i can see the gas pump, especially with the pointer finger.
That far-right one sure has an interesting shape to it.

Hmmm maybe, but all I can see is the dashboard low fuel light lmao
The one where he’s teary eyed is outstanding
9 years?!... Damn, I'm getting old.
🙏
I have been in hundreds of packed rooms before, but I have never experienced a packed room that smells as bad as a room packed with MTG fans.
Obligatory "I remember when that was first posted" comment.
Fucking legend
One of the greatest memes of all time.
I knew what I was going to see and I clicked through anyway. Why did I do that? Why did I keep on clicking past the 18+ filter?
