    I remember when memes were just a picture of a duck with wheels or a gif of a dancing baby.

    Speaking of ancient memes I showed this to my teen the other day and they didn’t even begin to understand.

      Hmm, wired earbuds (RIP) and the phone with buttons dates it a bit, but captchas are still around (and infidelity). Although, I’m seeing less and less of the distorted text kind these days.

        I haven’t seen a captcha like that in years and my teen didn’t even understand it as a captcha at all. If you’re still seeing those I’m definitely curious where.

    There was a time when memes were just dudes fighting snails in the margins of medieval manuscripts.
