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 I believe he got banned as a result but not sure if it ever was rescinded or just expired.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
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.
Jesus cristc man didcthe threaten to bring back clippy if they didn't showers
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.
Died the first time I saw this. I wish he'd kept up his hobby. It's hilarious.
He got banned after posting, iirc.
It was a pretty serious ban too. 18 months
Fucking legend
9 years?!... Damn, I'm getting old.
I know right? Once you hit 10, you might start seeing some new hairs...
Amazing
Pictures you can smell.
The aroma of stale cheap pizza, days old sweat, and poop.

Looks like Jon Snow
Two of em.
Dude really let himself go.
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
Looks like they say "H E R C"? Does his other hand read "U L E S"? Is that a Klumps reference?
Might be “Zerg Rush”
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.
I mean, in this specific community? Yeah... Just look at the name.
I see Reddit's toxicity is leaking into lemmy.
I'll be honest, this is just weird. ~Strawberry

Not weirder than going around and taking pictures of peoples butts, douchebag. ~Strawberry
