What are your favorite old memes, the kinds that still delight and amuse you personally even if they might have fallen out of everyday use? (hexbear.net)

I think I'll always enjoy amogus shenanigans, even the utterance of the in-game slang, long after that game fades from public awareness. I can't even fully explain it, it presses fun buttons for me.

I feel the same way about astronaut-2 astronaut-1 though it may be because the concept is so strange and so specific yet is also so applicable.

Showing my age, I still remember this one fondly, even if it's older than a lot of people posting on this site, right now.

Bushisms I am too young to remember

"Now watch this drive" passes my lips far more often than is proper

Trumpisms that have largely aged out of public perception, e.g. "many people are saying this"

SHEEEEEESH

There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee - that says, fool me once, shame on... shame on you.

Fool me... you can't get fooled again.
