okay, maybe we can get them chronologically.


of course the most recent is the "All your base are belong to us" crap
before this there was Mahir
we had hampsterdance, and all the other "insert noun here-dance"

umm.. okay I can't remember anything else. these things are the crap that was super-hot on the web for a few weeks, then like no one remembers it. what else was there?
 
You know, All your base are belong to us has really caught on

All the sudden someone in my CP class shouted it out in, and he doesn't even know what the hell AT or somethingawful are. Apparently its spreading through other means. And I'm not sure if LOB started it or not, but that Eminem is dead thing from awhile ago was on my local radio station. What dumbasses, they thought he really was dead and they were mourning him.
 
Anandtech is hardly the main spreading point of "all your base are belong to us".

it was all over the net before it was here

 
How about all those "under construction" icons and stuff everywhere a long while ago. Not exactly a trend but its damn lame looking back at it 😀
 


<< where did &quot;IS SUCK&quot; come from? >>



that is actually a genuine Anadtech-ism. many argue that it came from the movie Office Space, when the foreign dude in the car says &quot;This... this is a SUCK&quot;. but he only said that in the previews for the movie, in the actually movie he said &quot;This... this is a F*CK!&quot;

and it was being said around here before Office Space I believe, it was originated in a thread about Staples I believe
 
i hate that term &quot;is suck&quot; and also &quot;Noun OWNS!&quot; that one bugs me two.
as far as tthe inet trends go, remember NAPSTER BAAADDDD!!! gotta love those camp chaos clips.
joe cartoon was another with the frog blender thing, and gerbil in the microwave.

<< Have you guys forgot about the &quot;Ate my balls&quot; or &quot;whateverDANCE&quot; sites? <ie. hamsterdance>

>>



okay, I dont know what the &quot;ate my balls&quot; thing is, but the ___dance was in my original post

 
That damn dancing baby from Alley McBeal. Although the altered version of it stagering around with a cigarette hanging out of it's mouth, a bottle of whiskey in it's hand, and peeing all over the place was quite humorous.

Other fads -

- The whole &quot;priceless&quot; thing
- the &quot;L33t hAx0r oWnZ j00&quot; thing
 
vi_edit: that baby is not from ally mcbeal, it is a 3d animation made as a demo for either a vid card or a 3d rendering company. ally mcbeal stole it.
 
ahh, good contributions vi.

the stupid baby, I HATE that thing.. grr.

as for the priceless thing, that was another big one. some were pretty funny though, lol.


oh, then there was the &quot;WASSAP&quot; parodies, like the Elian Gonzales one, and the superfriends one, and others
 
The baby is a 3D Studio Max demo.

The Chemical Brothers made a little video with it to Block Rockin' Beats... cool, if you like the Chemical Brothers 😀
 
Hmm dont know if this qualifies as a trend but those damn &quot;Paid-to-surf&quot; pyramids were annoying. And Stinger pics are terribly annoying.
