Oldfag here.

In 2015-2016 this site was electric. It seemed like every few days we would see this in the world that fit with some meme. There was this sense that there was some sort of feedback loop between the bullshit that made us laugh on here and the things happening in reality.

Eventually we found an avatar for that general feeling in pepe the frog and we started calling it meme magic.

Then we found 'Kek' the chaos God and started joking about how Pepe and Kek were related since both had frog avatars.

Then we found the song Shadilay by an Italian disco band named P.E.P.E

It was absolute mania around here by then, because every single thing that happened felt almost "too perfect". There seemed to be signs everywhere assuring us that we were a part of something strange and incredible.
