Thank me later…
Don’t quote the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written.
EPIC WIN
I take issue with the first description of the first one. It is an evolution from what was courage wolf. Courage wolf was a meme template where the top line set up the situation and the bottom showed how you courageously did something in response.
People then took it to the next level with insanity wolf, the one depicted here. The top line is the same, setting up some kind of situation. But the bottom line changed to doing something absolutely insane that no person would ever ever do in real life.
Wow… Just when I thought it was over it just kept going… 😂
A time when memes were fun and goofy. Now it’s all smug-looking wojaks. Can’t we all agree to go back to those days?
We already have
There’s still goofy ones, you just gotta look harder
Eh, we had ragefaces before we shifted to those image captions. And we also had demotivational posters before the ragefaces
Early rage faces could be good. The low barrier of entry allowed people who couldn’t before to express some funny ideas. Then they ran out of ideas and continued to beat the dead horse.
This post is too damn

Real Confession Bear memes were my favorite
I don’t know why exactly but Good Guy Greg always cracked me up.
Maybe it’s because I’m an asshole. Still waiting to see one of those memes pop up.
Far too many people are using confession bear to gather sympathy for non-confessions
“My boss told me to kill 52 orphans and yell racial slurs at black people but I told him to fuck off, even though you shouldn’t swear. (Now please go ahead and tell me how good of a person I actually am)”
Like I said. “Real” Confession Bear memes.
le gem
The 8th one, with the lady crying, is definitely wrong. It was a first-world problems, something people wirh comfy lives would complain that are not a real problem.
That’s basically what it says, just worded differently.
“Third” should be “first”. I think its a slip of the keyboard.
