It's weird reading ancient 4chan threads because the post quality in them would probably get you mocked and told to fuck off if used today. A lot has changed in 10 years, and not just what memes that where spammed
>>133507883
It's not how you post, but the context behind the way it's posted.
What you have to understand about things like memes and catch phrases is that its core, its origins are no different from inside jokes. Think of it this way: consider a real life setting where your own group of friends or social circle has your own jokes that only those within said group understand because the jokes were built around things you all experienced and so on, i.e. the context matter as much as why the punch line happens. These inside jokes are a thus a quick way to establishing your interactions within said group.
Nevertheless, at some point, you're probably going to get bored of said jokes and move on.
But then somehow some other groups you've never interacted with start repeating the punchline to the jokes, without understanding the context or rationale. It would have felt really awkward. That's basically what's going on.
Throw in some obligatory internet hostility and you get what you see.
>>133508596
It also has to do with the fact that the demographics have shifted notably.
When /a/ (or 4chan) began, it was a bunch of 15 year olds that got here for a few hours per day to joke about stuff and have an interesting time. Nowadays, there are plenty of 20+ year olds who spend all their waking hours here. This site is no longer a place to experience adventures, it is home to these people. When you find new and exciting things in your home on a regular basis, then the sanctity of your home is breached. You cannot relax like this.
It's like waking up at night and hearing strange voices from underneath your bed, and so you turn on the light to see what's going on and somebody says: Don't mind us, we're just refugees. You shall scarcely notice us. Say, would you mind fetching that spoon and feeding me this jelly doughnut?"
When sub-communities on /a/ develop new memes, many of the other anons are looking at that development with resentment. It's not because they hate jokes or because every new meme is from reddit. It's because change in your home that comes up unsolicited is bad change. I still hate "b owls" and the winning thereof, and that one's not even recent. In contrast, the first screenshot I saved from 4chan was just somebody responding to a post of mine. It's not funny, but it was a heart-pounding experience back then.
>>133496815
I never knew that people that fucking dense existed.
>>133508596

I never screencap my own posts, but whenever someone else caps my post I save it. I don't post it, though, that would be far too embarrassing.
That bulge where?
>>133510566
I didn't post it because everyone's already seen it before.
>>133496815
>>133510117
Except for the part where that phrase is commonly used in a comedic context. It's not necessarily meant to be understood literally. Not to mention that we see Araragi wake up at home on the next morning, so the guy has a point.
>>133510075
>This site is no longer a place to experience adventures
I agree with most of the things you said, but certainly not this. Maybe it isn't like the old days, or maybe we have a different definition in mind, but I still believe in the potential adventure of browsing this site. Just look at the fun we had with our new admin. I don't think adventure is dead, it's just a bit harder to wake up than before.
>In contrast, the first screenshot I saved from 4chan was just somebody responding to a post of mine.
I wish I was this cute when I first came here. Do you still have it?

>>133496815
>2015
>classic
>>133510636
I think it's just that when you're new everything about 4chan feels like an adventure. Once you've been here for a few years a lot of the stuff that an outsider would view as incredibly strange just feels like another day.
Memory also makes the big, exciting moments stand out more so it seems like they used to happen more frequently.
>>133510636
>I don't think adventure is dead,
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply it's dead, but that those people don't come here to for adventures.
Yes, the screenshot still exists.
>>133500236
Anyone have the Kekura image? That was a great thread.
He's coming back for her birthday, right?
>>133495469
>>133510075
Exactly.
>In contrast, the first screenshot I saved from 4chan was just somebody responding to a post of mine. It's not funny, but it was a heart-pounding experience back then.
So I'm not the only one, huh.
>>133510683
There's a point where you reach Nirvana and just end up lurking 99% of the time anyway. You know what you come here for and just ignore everything else. Hell, you can even recognize the stages that other posters are most likely in.
>>133510841
I came here to laugh, not cry ;_;
>>133510970
Honestly if you haven't seen that image a thousand times by this point you're definitely a newfag

>>133503451

Plebest of plebs who surely thinks Monty Pyton is only known in the UK and Anime is unknown outside of Japan.
Oh, and surely that "Hollywood" thing is just a local affair.

More like 3 years and 3 weeks.
>>133511414
Epic thread. Also (and I'm aware this might be a strange tangent) love how the caps turned out. Animating the link in the threads and saving it as a gif is pretty creative, but wouldn't work out any other way. If this was made today, there would be 100 identical replies with all the reaction images smothering the actual good bits. Just seeing that the original post has a lot of replies is enough.

Personal favorite because of the cute factor.
It's like an animu plot, but more hilarious. Would put the thread up, but never saved it. Just the article from the thread.

Not that old, but still find it hilarious on the stupidity.
>>133511959
did you never watch FMA?
>>133511993
Yeah, but years ago. I don't remember much expect the main plot.
>>133512035
go re-watch it. Then look at the screen cap again.
Fuck those were the days.
>>133511986
Same thing happened a few weeks back
>>133512063
i wonder if it's the same anon doing it every time and is purposefully acting like a troll
or if it's a new anon who doesn't get the joke...
or if it's an anon copycatting the original anon who didn't get it to continue the meme....
or if it is that same anon that is really that oblivious.

>>133514245
Crop and google search give results.
Not a classic but the best one are already posted.
Not really a "classic" but does anyone remember a thread in /adv/ about an anon asking for advice in life but his background story is the entire plot of CLANNAD? And while people at /adv/ answering seriously /a/ was laughing their asses off?
I vaguely remember someone posted the same but with Tsukihime's back story.
Every time.
Anyone got the screencaps of the thread where a group of anons wanted to make a pmc because of black lagoon?

Me too and that reminds me I don't get banned anymore. Not complaining but I'm not so quality that I wouldn't get banned.
