Thread 149557634

When you see this guy, what is the first song that comes to mind? Banana Phone or Peanut Butter Jelly Time?

>That's just a guy. An alive being

Peanut Butter Jelly Time
The song Banana Phone popped into my head when I read it, but that gif has always been for Peanut Butter Jelly Time to me.

Banana Phone makes me think of YTMND

Peanut Butter Jelly Time.
Banana Phone is a YTMND of Raffi holding a phone with a thumbs up.

Banana Phone makes me think of the old Newgrounds animation where the song gets stuck in a guy's head and drives him insane until he kills himself.

>>149557634 (OP)
when I first saw that guy it was uncommon for pcs to have full audio

>>149558391
anon what? in the 2000s all pcs had audio.

What is the earliest meme that springs to your mind? The one you first saw? I saw an image macro of Yolo Swaggins and some Pokemon ones when I was but a lad. Peanut Butter Jelly Time and The Ultimate Battle of Ultimate Destiny were close behind alongside ThunderLOLcats. That shit was how I found minecraft and ponies. Good thing I didn't get into ponies.

>>149558747
>The one you first saw?
probably kitty cat dance. not on youtube though, it was on some file sharing site that I no longer remember the name of

>Good thing I didn't get into ponies
you were wise to stay away
you don't get into ponies
ponies get into you

The rapper who sang this died in an 11-hour police shootout in 2002.

>>149557634 (OP)
I'm lying, but I'm gonna post this classic anyway

>>149558921
I was going to mention that
He shot a police officer for some fucking reason and when they went after his ass he barricaded himself in an apartment and held a guy hostage
The police didn't even shoot him he fucking shot himself
Why is it that even the Peanut Butter Jelly Time guy feels the need to throw his life away?

Peanut Banana Butter Jelly Phone Time

It's a corporate commercial but that shit was everwhere including internet responses to posts.

>>149557634 (OP)
That's Peanut Butter Jelly Time. Bananaphone is the banana Gundam being held by ASCII art Osaka.

>>149558747
I made shitposts for YTMND (that never got more than 10 views, so don't ask), so pretty much all the memes associated with it. Stole my bike, NEDM, Cat on a Keyboard, etc.

>>149558747
I'm old so shit like Trogdor, All Your Base, Bubb Rubb, etc.

>>149558903
Yeah though that was because I was strictly a kid who wanted boys stuff. MLP was when I was getting into middle school so you wouldn't catch me watching it. But Hub was cool with Dan vs. on it. There was another good show but I can't remember.
>>149559209
Yeah memes were always exploited by advertising to some degree in order to relate to the people being advertised to but that could be like a unique occurrence of it happening pretty quick back then. Am I wrong? Ad agencies/campaigns were slow but I assume I am wrong and whaaaazzaaap was used for a while there before that.
>>149559269
YTMND was something I probably saw memes of on Google but I only really got into it when going on KYM and looking back at some YTPs that were probably referencing YTMDs.
>>149559299
Ancient stuff. Next you're gonna tell me you saw the dancing baby first and that you sent fax bombs or whatever that's called when you faxed black sheets of paper to companies. Homestar Runner is something I think is too old for me to sit through, though I dunno. Maybe it holds up. I saw all your base on Google as well while Bubb Rubb was something I saw through Ray referencing it on Achievement Hunter.
A lot of 2010's stuff kinda had some recursive instances that referenced the OG chan culture that allowed me to find out about a bunch before KYM just made it way easier to get everything before I started posting here. Happy Wheels also had a level with Pedobear in it one time before I knew what a pedo was. It was just an internet thing I didn't fully get.

>>149558747
memes?
Homestar runner (dot com)
zerowing posting
a winner is you
do you have stairs in your house?

but my first image macro experience was getting emails from my godfather in canada, he would get 20 of the best posts from the chatrooms in 1992 and email them to my dad, who would print them out for me to take to school and share with the neighbour kids.

my bones are dust.

>>149559819
Got any of those emails? Anything good?

Banana Phone, but I wasn't aware of memes and I didn't "see" it, it was my cousin's ringtone.
as for visually seen and perceived as a widespread phenomenon, no idea. maybe gangnam style?
>>149559819
"back in my day memes had a supply chain" is a wonderful anecdote

>>149559926
mate, it was the early 90, these were printed off the work machines on continuous form paper, most of them were just text, the occasional ascii style image of a pinup, or a neat little helicopter. by the end of the 90s it was mostly white Arial text over an image, the one i remember most was "everytime you masturbate god kills a kitten" over a Japanese ad with two domo's chasing a kitten.

>>149558747
My parents were early adopters of the internet so I was using it as a little kid in the late-90s and remember stuff like the Seinfeld "MY BALLS" edits, the internet is a series of tubes, hamster dance, Japanese Pokemon Rap, Hyakugojyuuichi, etc.

Peanut Butter Jelly Time. How is this even a question?

>>149558747
my great aunt showed me dancing baby when i was like 5.

t. born in 92

Did anybody have peanut butter jelly time as a ringtone?

>>149558436
that shitty gif is from the fucking 90s

>>149560270
Yeah, gotta be hampter dance for me

>>149558747
Pools Closed meme was the first ones I remember seeing my first time here.

>ponies get into you

God damn that is the motherfucking truth, isn't it?

It's been over ten years past, now, but the fucking horses still don't leave my head, not really.

I feel like I could flip a switch and go right back to being a Brony, it's merely convention and circumstance that have made the fandom die in my heart. There was some powerful meme magic at work with the Horse Show. If you lived through it you'd understand. They got their hooks into you, those six.

Unfortunately that shitty banana also reminds me of that piece of shit called ebaumsworld

>>149558747
>What is the earliest meme that springs to your mind?
I'm old enough to remember Hampster Dance

>>149558747
That dancing ooga chaka baby in aol chatrooms

>>149557634 (OP)
I remember how much he kicked ass in MUGEN

>>149558747
Shoop da Woop.
I used to watch stick figure pivot animations at a young age which became the first meme I saw.

>>149567038
That reminds me, I think a Happy Wheels level or something else also had shoop da whoop and I didn't understand blackface at the time either. I was this close to imitating that shit and getting in trouble. I think it was on a subconcious level that I remembered Jynx from Pokemon but then I think I remembered something about blackface being bad so that held me back.

>>149558747
probably trollface

>>149558747
y'see, the kids, they listen to the rap, that gives them the brain damage

>>149568431
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME AND YOU?

>Banana Phone makes me think of the old Newgrounds animation where the song gets stuck in a guy's head and drives him insane until he kills himself.
Actually He almost kills himself but the gun is a fake. Then he's told he was in a reality/game show all along, upon which he goes berserk and murders the host.

I feel so old.

>>149558747
Hampsterdance on some pre-Youtube non-Newgrounds flash site.

Oldest I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is Break My Stride.

Anyone have the gif with the guy in the bucket getting chased?

>>149558747
the first memes i saw was skits and short videos or gifs shared via bluetooth on cellphones and floppy disks to put on the pc. i dont know if any one you giys are familiar with "guy was mistaked by fucking his cow" skit or "guy was mistaken by eating dog poo out of the ground" bit. 2000s kid btw. also short cgi funny animals cartoons. like the ice bear on the treadmill.

heck yeaah. shake that thang.

>>149558747
Not THE first but one I remember clearly from my first days of the internet was some really fat kid dancing while some female vocals twanged in the background, the lyrics were indecipherable to me.

The first time I heard banana phone was on an Idiots of Gary's Mod video. Dr. Breen was smiling so big and loving the song.

>>149571424
>GONADS IN THE LIGHTNING

When I was in 3rd grade, my friend and I would print pictures out from funnyjunk, ebaumsworld, etc. and show them to eachother on the bus. Picrel made me laugh so hard the busdriver yelled at us

>>149569204
Link?

Also did anyone remember weegee? I’m like an 04 kid so I’m a bit of a zoomer but it was a pretty cool time with weegee a bit.
