Important for my followers to know that I've been growing a mustache lately, and from now on you should be aware of the context that my posts are coming from a guy who has a mustache, rather than some other type of person.

I remember in 2015 when I was 13 I was talking to an older kid and we both agreed that memes way back in the day (meaning stuff from 2005-2010) were really good, and that memes at the time were also very good, but "old" memes from 2011-2013 were really stupid and bad (this seemed like a longer time period at the time). There was a narrative among my generation that memes went from chaotic internet bullshit with no rhyme or reason, to a cringe and embarrassing zeitgeist, to the new ironic and "dank" zeitgeist, which had saved us from the dark age of rage comics and advice animals. I'm not sure what to think of this narrative looking back. Up until like 2020 the narrative persisted that meme culture had become more ironic and self-referential (and therefore better and funnier) over time, but at some point this died out and today what we call memes can be divided between:

"Relatable" slop still being faithfully churned out by /r/dankmemes and 9gag and ifunny, consisting entirely of screenshots of people on twitter complaining about a common problem or insulting their political opponents.

Chaotic internet bullshit with no rhyme or reason.

So did we return to the prelapsarian golden age of memes without realizing it? Did we regress and undo our valuable advancements in the field of irony? Ten years later, when 2012 and 2015 don't seem very far apart, do I still believe that

is funnier than

?

I'm not so sure. I am pretty sure that irony is just not cool anymore. It got old. The memes I see that make me laugh the most these days aren't particularly clever or ironic or surreal. They're stuff like Asgore running over Dess, chicken jockey, or I CAN'T READ MY MAIL BECAUSE I'M FOOLISH. We've returned to a simpler age, relying on the basics. There is no meaningful difference between "PINGAS" and "GYATT".

Oh right my original point was that looking back the best explanation for why we felt the way we did is just because that's how people feel about mass culture at any given time. Whatever was cool recently but no longer cool is incredibly lame. Whatever was cool a long time ago is very cool, and kids these days don't understand how great things used to be. The narrative we constructed was just an illusion.

I've made comments before to the effect that people on the internet are too mad, but in their defense the internet is filled with really infuriating stuff. It makes sense how mad everyone on here is.

it would be really cool if sweetness was like that. And also kind of sexual.

Spicy stuff has an unusually high ceiling, it seems like. Salty foods can only be as salty as salt. Even the sourest candy of all time poses basically no challenge to an adult palate. Spicy foods, though? They can be spicy enough to make you throw up and that’s not even approaching the spiciest food ever. A spicy food can kill you by being spicy

Violence is often defended as being a deterrent, but unless very particular conditions are met, violence consistently functions as an anti-deterrent. The more violence you commit against others, the more likely it is that someone will commit violence against you. If you really value your safety, you should try to be nonviolent.

I feel like it's extremely common for political positions and tribes to be downstream of feelings of humiliation, but there is rarely an effort put forward to explicitly minimize humiliation in society. Maybe there ought to be. People really don't like being humiliated.
