It's probably my favorite meme from the last few years. It really is a classic.

Gonna start using this Raichu and see if anyone notices.

The meme is 8 years old.

Counterpoint: my dad sent me a cheezburger meme yesterday and I only need to go back a couple weeks to find rage comics memes in my group chats. I’m honestly surprised at how long memes can stay relevant; when they first started being called memes, it felt like they could only have a lifespan of a few weeks (though that’s basically the definition of survivorship bias).

I recently realised the Slowpoke/Internet Explorer meme template is never going to die.

Is Raichu more of a sex symbol than Pikachu nowadays?

That title goes to Vaporeon

I guess now is a bad time to ask for slightly thicker line art

When the meme is devolving:

Dont talk to me or my son ever again

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Well, yeah. Memes are all about evolution.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

They certainly weren't intelligently designed.

I just want a picture of a got dang hotdog.

Keep sharing the meme and it'll end up in Ubers before long.
