“Fuck yo couch!”
And thus awoke a dark urge in the mind of JD Vance.
Buy another one, ya rich motherfker!
Man, back in those days I thought we were truly in the post-racism era. Then I grew up and saw how the world really was, and social media happened and allowed all the awful people in the world to find each other.
Nobody tell them that yelling random jokes from somewhere at other people are memes in their purest form.
FUCK YO COUCH!
You betta axe sumbody
I went to cancun that year for my senior trip. It was non stop 18 y/o boys quoting chappell show to each other. Take me baaaack
What do you mean no memes? This was 2004 and there were a bazillion Rick James memes as far as I remember.
If anything it feels like the purest form of meme for something to be quoted repeatedly like that lol
I remember after Mork and Mindy first aired and all the kids were saying ‘na-noo na-noo’ at each other and trying to get their fingers to do the handshake.
I was in high school at the time. I remember everyone yelling “Whaaat! Okay!” at each other like Lil Jon
Showed all of Charlie Murphy’s real hollywood stories to my s/o who had never seen them. They hold up, we were crying laughing.
I think the genius of those skits is they were true stories and Charlie Murphy wasn’t acting. Like the dramatizations of them were obviously supposed to be ridiculous and comedic, but the stories themselves were basically a retelling of what actually happened.
I’m Rick James bitch!
UNITYYYY!
I’m Rick James bitch!
I think it may have been a little before. April 1999, the premiere of Who Wants to Be A Millionaire? Everyone was talking about it. We were ALL going to be millionaires. We all dressed like Regis for awhile (…right?). The new millennium was right around the corner. Things can only go up from here.
contestant on final question. It’s super hard.
“I’m going to use a lifeline to phone my dad. Hey, dad? Yeah. I’m on Who Wants to be a Millionaire and just wanted you to know I am about to win a million dollars.”
hangs up, gets right answer, wins a million bucks
Dude was epic.
I was working in a cubicle farm at the time, and everybody was on the phone all fucking day for weeks trying to pass the call-in test for Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Absolutely no work got done by the entire IT department of a major corporation for that whole time. I’m surprised that show didn’t have a worse effect on the economy than 9/11 or COVID.
You are the weakest link. Goodbye.
I went to see him at a college in this era and he couldn’t even perform his set because drunk frat boys kept screaming it at him
White people yelling “I’m rick James bitch” at him is literally why he stopped doing comedy for like a decade.
That and some industry people tried to fuck him on a contract or something
I thought it was them quoting Clayton to him
What did the 5 fingers say to the face?
Memes have existed long as humans have.
