Rsdude099 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Yes, yes, I mean those things like The Game, mudkipz, rick rolls, stuff like that. How do they start? Where do they come from (besides 4chan)? Pretty much done with rs now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star. Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I thought Mudkipz came from deviantART... It's just a fad. Someone says it, another copies it, then another person repeats it and so on. ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 What's the "soi" meme? Like, "My roflcopter goes soi soi soi soi soi soi." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaziek Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Most of them originate from 4chan, but if you want to know why they exist, well thats an incredibly complex question. Memes are just a part of human nature. They exist in real life too, just look around you. and also, no star, the mudkip meme originated from this story; [hide=storytime]Today being Halloween, I decided to [bleep] with the major [developmentally delayed] at school when I came out of science for break. He was dressed as Ash. Knowing this was going to happen, I brought a Mudkips doll. Thus I started the conversation, making sure no one saw me. "So I heard you like Mudkips..." "MUDKIPS? I LUUUUUUUUUUUUVE MUDKIPS." "O RLY? So, would you ever [bleep] a Mudkips, that is.." (he cuts me off before I could said 'if you were a mudkips') "OF COURSE." "Well I just happen to have a Mudkips here, and..." Before I finished the sentence, which would have resulted in me hitting him across the face with the doll, he grabbed it. In one swift motion his pants were down and he was violently humping it. Not to get between a man and his Mudkips I started to walk away, because there is no way I'd be caught wrestling a half-naked crazy guy humping a Mudkips. Needless to say, within 5 to 10 seconds, some girls saw him and started screaming. I cooly walked into a restroom, pretending nothing had ever happened; not that I had intended that outcome, but now that it was in play I didn't want to be involved. I came back out two minutes later, and like any wanton act on school grounds there was now a huge crowd around him. He was still [bleep]ing it and baying this real [bleep]ed up 'EEEEEEEEEEINNNNF EEEEEEEEEEINNNF' sound. Suddenly a scuffle broke out in the middle, meaning he probably did something stupid. I asked someone what had happened. A girlfriend of one of the football players tried to get him to stop, but he bit her for trying to take it away. Someone called in a few football players (all dressed up like Road Warrior) who proceeded to pummel the [cabbage] out of the guy. Meanwhile the school police were freaking out and having trouble getting in to the situation. A few minutes later the intruder alarm went off and we were all shuffled into classrooms. Over the intercom the principal announced that someone had thrown a flaming plush toy into the library. Uh.. what the hell. So we were kept there and about 30 minutes later the principal came on again. This time he was saying that whoever was behind the beating should turn themselves in. All of a sudden this woman began yelling, "I WILL SUE YOU FOR DAMAGES. YOU LITTLE PUNKS, I'M GONNA SUE..." and it was cut off. I asked an office later what had happened. Apparently his mother had come to pick him up and threatened to sue for the beating and 'whatever else happened.' The school threatened to counter-sue because of lewd conduct, inciting a riot, and starting a fight. So I ask you: do you like Mudkips?[/hide] which made its way onto the internet quite a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shamwow thing will probably pass as the news dies down (I still don't get it nor know wth Shamwow is), and I've not heard of Billy Mays. But you never know what will turn into a meme, it's pretty random. I'd love to become a memeologist one day. There's so much psycholohy you could put behind them, but then again it could just be put down as group of bored people on the internet. Like kids finding a fart funny. I edit for the [Tip.It Times].

whiteguy Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 On Saturdays, people on 4chan posted pictures of cats with captions, it was called Caturday, but it apparently spread over the internet and people started calling them lolcats, eventually most of 4chan stopped using it, as it gained popularity, and i think it's considered a Dead Meme (same thing happened with rockroll on that parade, it's when a memes get mainstream.) So that's the story of lolcats :thumbsup: My Last.fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
