Alas, I am older than the internet. I lived through the dark days of old. A lawless and unfiltered time, a time when the only limitations were your imagination and your 14.4kbps dial up modem. I saw great meme empires grow into dominance and then crumble into dusk like ancient civilizations. In the early days of memes, there were no rules, anything and everything was attempted, and whatever went "viral" (before this term existed) is what later shaped the entire internet. Cats mostly, but other things too. Darker things. Much much darker than cats even.
