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.

I still think of this ancient aliens guy when I see some galaxy brain take or outrageous grift:

'all your base are belong to us' might have been the first meme I remember where people really used it in all sorts of circumstances, pretty early viral meme
