>Jenkem
>bitches don't know bout my dick
4chan, and the rest of the internet as a whole, was much more relaxed back then.
now everything is overpoliticized
whats the first meme? AYBABTU?
I miss the dedicated fbf and other captioned meme threads on /b/
2010-2011 was great
First meme I ever saw was Picard Song on ytmnd. I must have been in like 3rd grade, my brother showed me.

Pools Closed, Longcat, duckroll, newfags cant triforce has to be one of the oldest, FeelsGoodMan(you know pepe before the internet bastardized him), chat rooms before those became irrelivant. I guess tits or GTFO would probably be the oldest.

Favorite and older
>>26602368
I said kind of. It's not close to the other memes on here but probably from 2009 - 2010.
>>26601839

Speaking of old memes, how many newfigs know about this page? http://www.4chan.org/flash
It's like a time machine
I have even older ones:
USB line
Sigourney
Candyass
i remember more spam than memes
the red boxes, clockwork orange guy, the lockerz shit, desu, more desu, the two animes pushing each other
>>26602770
>Sigourney

>implying 2009 filters on /b/ are memes

8 years and i've never seen this page? thank you
I've been on the site long enough to remember 2008/chanology was the year of the newfag
Also Jessie Slaughter was only 2010 but I miss when we constantly talked about her

I started coming to 4chan around the same time as the Hal Turner saga.
Back when /b/ was funny.
Exploding knees
It's pretty dumb but it used to make me laugh a lot. Sometimes I still think "Habeeb it" to myself.
>>26603130
this was a quality meme back in the day
anybody else play on the 4chan server back in counter-strike 1.6? all that fy_pool_day lost in time...

I mourn for the lost days of such ancient relics, containing earnest yet incredible power
then again things aren't too bad now, maybe memers of the future will look to the current age as great
>>26603419
I legit miss rage comics. It's a shame that newfags today have no idea that all those 9gag faces and boardwalk meme shirts where shit that was popular around here years ago unironically.
Also, Missing the music but this Webm is bretty good

Everything is so buried in irony now. It's harder to appreciate things. Reminds me of that movie The Comedy. I remember reading stoner comics on /b/ and laughing my ass off. I still love this one
the doge meme
Lolcats anon. And also primordial memes like "copypasta" that aren't even memetastic anymore, but instead, common slang.
Never forget.
Co,mentor origiono
>no one remembers japanese erection
why
>>26601500
That time when creepypastas was the shit on /b/
(can't remember them but for example there was this video of a anorexic ugly trap dancing to strange music, the title of the video was something in spanish)
I'm not an "oldfag" though so it's probably from 2007 at best
>>26601500
I think the oldest 4chan meme might be using Hawaiian Punch cans as a filter for cocks. Because it carried over from Something Awful before 4chan was made.
None of you probably even know what the hell I am talking about, but we still have an old 4chan banner that depicts an anime girl with Hawaiian Punch cans in her eyes.
Now you know the meme it refers to, keep a lookout for it.
>>26604081

>Vid was upload in 2007
Fuck shit. Life was so cool back then.

this is what newfags who want to sound like oldfags consider an "old meme"
>>26601500
Some green girl along with the name "Desu" or something like that?
I never knew what that was.

>>26604298
DOUBLENIGGER is endearing, not offensive.
I rlly enjoyed when moot trolled the shit out of us from time to time too with puddi puddi, word filters, jumping gifs and whatnot. These are not that old.
O RLY from Ebaumsworld forum (where I started) is the oldest meme I remember.

There he is. There he goes again. Look, everyone! He posted it once again! Isn't he just the funniest guy around?! Oh my God.
I can almost see your pathetic overweight frame glowing in the dark, lit by your computer screen which is the only source of light in your room, giggling like a like girl as you once again type your little shitty thread up and fill in the captcha. Or maybe you don't even fill in the captcha. Maybe you're such a disgusting NEET that you actually paid for a 4chan pass, so you just choose the picture. Oh, and we all know the picture. The "epic" fucking meme, isn't it? I imagine you little shit laughing so hard as you click it that you drop your Doritos on the floor, but it's ok, your mother will clean it up in the morning. Oh, that's right. Did I fail to mention? You live with your mother. You are a fat fucking fuckup, she's probably so sick of you already. So sick of having to do everything for you all goddamn day, every day, for a grown man who spends all his time on 4chan posting about some shitty meme. Just imagine this. She had you, and then she thought you were gonna be a scientist or an astronaut or something grand, and then you became a NEET. A pathetic fucking NEET. She probably cries herself to sleep everyday thinking about how bad it is and how she wishes she could just disappear. She can't even try to talk with you because all you say is "WEW LAD". You've become a parody of your own self. And that's all you are. A sad little man laughing in the dark by himself as he prepares to indulge in the same old dance that he's done a million times now. And that's all you'll ever be.
>>26601500
Sure the oldest and longest running meme on 4chan is "OP is a faggot"
>>26604399
Found it

>Self proclaimed "oldfags" don't know it's a reference to the Heritage of the Future JoJo game and not a stand in for REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>26601500
This was my shit back in bargiko days
This is the oldest pre-internet meme I can remember, excluding basic shit like slang.
I think IMPACT FONT ON IMAGE is about the oldest 4chan meme there is, if you could consider it that. Considering that's literally how normies use the word meme now, it's close enough I guess.
Retarded shit when I first started here.
I'd say Baneposting will be up there for longest running though. Longest running means to me it's posted regularly. It's pretty damn common today and it's been like 4 years.
>>26607317
yeah man baneposting is really fucking old wow i almost forgot haha oldfags for life
>>26606932
Or perhaps he was making a joke on how WRYYYY is the same noise as REEEE, Not implying whatever stupid bullshit you're saying
Kill yourself.
>>26607348
but I specified longest running which is something op asked for. Who the fuck posts about lolcats, duckrolling, doge, etc. etc. etc.? Literally no one. Fuck off retard.
>>26604175

>>26607254
>I think IMPACT FONT ON IMAGE is about the oldest 4chan meme there is, if you could consider it that. Considering that's literally how normies use the word meme now, it's close enough I guess.
Close, but they use meme to mean AN image with impact font. Not the concept as a whole, a single image is its own meme. Anyone can make as many memes as they want in normie world, their meme economy is fucked beyond repair.
>>26607480
im trolled
damn m8 fuk u
>>26607480
You're an old guy! =P
>>26601500
4chan's longest running meme is itself.
>>26601842
>mfw normies stole caturday
>>26607589
>some chucklefuck is set for life because he made a website to repost all that cheezeburger shit
I'm pretty sure the longest running 4chan 'meme' is GETs.
The oldest meme I remember is shoop da whoop
>>26607546
i zozzled
>pic related xD
>>26602785
This place is filthy
>>26607254
Even before Impact font, or maybe at the same time?
There was de-motivational posters. I have a fuckhuge folder of them, all slowly collecting computer dust.
>>26602770

Dear Lord the fucking back story to this one is dark as shit

>>26607944
The oldest pictures I have of stuff like this is from 2005, but I want to say these developed separately because non-ironic versions were up in offices before 4chan existed, along with the snarky editions appearing at about the same time, and became perfect material to be integrated into 4chan when it was discovered.
>>26608264
Ahh, the classic demotivational.

>>26610493
in fact i'm very tired of irony in general
>>26610519
you could say that irony has gone too far
7 proxies is the oldest one I remember that I still find somewhat funny.
>>26610547
its better to laugh at images like these than to feel smug about other people laughing at them
>>26610611
I can only laugh at them because I know they're outdated though.
>>26601842
Moot memes very were always gold,
Mootxico
Moots McDonald Date (my favourite of all time)
Moot and Anon meets in New York
Moot TIME award
Moot vs original r9k WHOLE DEBACLE
Moot coming to random threads
Moot vs W.T Snacks, how he was still morbidly butthurt whenever Snacks was mentioned all the way until 2007-8
Also Chris Chan Original Saga is kind of a classic meme, I think he was originally found in 2008?
It's been a while since moetron

stop it.
candlejack doesn't exist.
this or the weird monkey girlfriend made in ms paint - I couldn't find that image
>>26610611
I don't really know what changed. There's always been some reddit-like entity like ebaums or cheezeburger STEALIN OUR JOKES (man do I miss the days when the word meme wasn't a meme), but now the paranoia over the unwashed masses being among us has hit such a fever pitch that we can't enjoy anything anymore. If mspaint comics had been a new thing today, there'd be le reddit meme vitriol after the first one got posted. I guess the poopoo peepee/rare pepe thing was proof enough of that. Maybe this is just what sustained irony is like, where you turn into an immutable husk of bitterness that can't be genuine or sincere about anything anymore.
It's fucking weird to look back at shit like pic related and realize it originally came from 4chan.
Her tushy looks exactly like sad frog!!!
Her ass is a Pepe!!!!

It was a great time to be on 4chan, when you were still allowed to make non-ironic jokes.
>>26610820
Oh my god, Candlejack got him before he could even start to begin his next sent-
>>26610997
no i'm still here fucker.
>>26610966
The problem are the reddit whores. Unless we joke about so weird or sick things, some little upboat reddit whore will steal it to reddit, and next week youll see it on fucking CNN. That fucking dogpants that was shitposting went viral. After that it becomes a point of "Oh. O-oh." And it becomes embarassing,
How pathetic do you have to be to steal stupid image macros so you can get online approval? Get your own shit, stop riding ours. Unless you are ironic, so meta, so wtf or so sick they cant steal it, youll soon see it in mainstream. Not that i dont love how calling people Cucks is becoming an actual meme magic result.
I thought we had Shkreli memes on lock down but reddit stole those too. Theyre so scummy they even would steal those.

I don't know. Been coming here on and off since 2004 and I can't really remember when certain things were. Efg? Mill house? cockmongler guy?
All I know is that this current incarnation of /r9k/ is shitter than the earlier ones.
>>26611940
Not that guy, but I'd actually say that 09 was just simply another plateau that 4chan fell off of.
I started going to 4chan in 2005, and I specifically remember when thing started going to shit. It was as early as 2007, when 4chan got mentioned on Attack of the Show. That was the year that the term "newfag" was coined, and generally, I consider anyone who joined from 2007 on to be a newfag and contribution to the downfall of 4chan.
Don't get me wrong. 4Chan was never good. Says it in the rules of the internet. But I guarantee you it was less bad.
