2018-07-04 19:07:19 UTC  

if only so that countries will stop trying to cripple it

2018-07-04 19:07:35 UTC

2018-07-04 19:08:12 UTC  

If I take a fucking nap for a day or two off the internet there's some new bullshit meme

2018-07-04 19:08:13 UTC  

i've found my calling in life, i must become a professor of meme history

2018-07-04 19:08:21 UTC  

and I have to dig for an hour to find the source

2018-07-04 19:08:30 UTC  

academia is DEEEEEAAAD

2018-07-04 19:08:38 UTC  

Okay how about this, for an example miss

2018-07-04 19:09:31 UTC

2018-07-04 19:09:41 UTC  

like a solid week of history that will be taught in meme history for generations

2018-07-04 19:09:47 UTC  

vrchat was popular for less than 6 months

2018-07-04 19:09:49 UTC  

the original knuckles drawing in that style was done by Gregzilla, for a joke.
Gregzilla then did a video where he made that drawing sing "I don't want to set the world on fire"
Then a friend of mine, Framerater, co-opted the drawing with permission and made a short series of singing videos
Then someone entirely unrelated made a 3d-model of it for VR chat
And somehow suddenly people started using it to reference Who Killed Captain Alex

2018-07-04 19:09:52 UTC  

And the suddenly

2018-07-04 19:09:54 UTC  

DO U KNOW DE WEY

2018-07-04 19:10:03 UTC  

The first three lines of that took 6 months

2018-07-04 19:10:09 UTC  

the last two lines were like, two weeks

2018-07-04 19:10:12 UTC  

?? ?? ? ??? ? ?

2018-07-04 19:10:27 UTC  

Taking all of that apart then

2018-07-04 19:10:38 UTC  

imagine reverse-enineering that meme

2018-07-04 19:10:50 UTC  

who is knuckles? why was that short clip of him saying "oh no" funny in that context and video?

2018-07-04 19:10:56 UTC  

Why was making him sing humerous

2018-07-04 19:11:00 UTC  

Why did framerater make more?

2018-07-04 19:11:03 UTC  

why did someone make a model?

2018-07-04 19:11:06 UTC  

If meme historian become an actual thing then all my years on 4chan would not be for nothing

2018-07-04 19:11:08 UTC  

Why use Who Killed Captain Alex?

2018-07-04 19:11:15 UTC  

What is Who Killed Captain Alex?

2018-07-04 19:11:17 UTC  

Why is it funny?

2018-07-04 19:11:29 UTC

2018-07-04 19:11:32 UTC
