Title: Meme Hills Injoke Graveyard
Post by: Chocofreak13 on March 04, 2013, 10:45:31 PM
the purpose of this thread is nostalgia. "remember when i had a mauu value?" "remember when i was the riddle master?" "remember when i used to rhyme everything?"

so many injokes have come and gone, let us mourn (or celebrate) their loss here.



i still want my Mauu Value established, btw. i want to know how many lolies to put in my album. >>;

Various nostalgic things, these might not necessarily be memes or in-jokes but they still stand out for me:

-Everyone being Gay For Bella, which was both flattering and a little scary. And the resulting love triangle/quadrangle/pentagon/n-gon ...  >//<
-Creation of Mertvaya Ruka-tan (OSC group effort in making an OS-tan at its finest, imo) AND the subsequent uptick in transmission from UVB-76 (or whatever the name of the radio station [supposedly] associated with the Dead Hand system is called) which was an eerily well-timed coincidence.
-When Stew showed up and my internal monolog was something like WHO IS THIS NEWBIE WHO KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT MY / AURORA / C-CHAN'S CHARACTERS, HE SEEMS COOL BUT I DON'T TRUST HIM TO STICK AROUND and then I gave him the proverbial side-eye for like the next week but I realized he really was an awesome guy and would be around for awhile. uwu
-The departure of C-chan and my not-too-long-thereafter break from the site. :(
-Back when Nej was the totally random Troll Lord Extraordinaire, basically like the Pinkie Pie of OSC but with more insanity. <3

There are others I can't think of atm. x.x Will post when I think of more....

Indeed. I admit, I'd want her if she was interested in me >w>;;

Some I can remember, ranging from personal in-jokes with a few users to moments of history:
- Swiss Cheese Collections. I have a folder of some pictures I took of the site during that April Fool's joke, and I still often find myself mentioning Swiss cheese whenever possible as a nod back to that.

- Everyone is bi for Penti. This one stems from Kari pointing out that she's compatible with 3 of the 4 fetishes I named off in the old Fetishes topic, as well as a few awkward moments with Stew, Zen seemingly flirting with me, and Pit being very supportive of this meme when I mentioned it to her a few years back. Apparently it even cropped back up in my dreams and mixed itself with the "everyone is gay for Bella" meme in a fever dream I had months ago; in which Bella and I got married...and I was the bride ^^;;

- One that I primarily circulated on Skype was that sometime in the future, Nej's science experiments will result in me being sent back to the past and becoming Fedora-tan (Our admin; not the character). Given how he and I seem to have similar interests, as well as Pit being supportive of the aforementioned "Everyone is bi for Penti" meme, it seems plausible LOL

interesting, but we've never heard of that here.

not that it's not interesting, but the point of this thread was to recount old jokes born here. :\

I'm too new, I wouldn't know any.

Give it time and you'll experience some :3

EDIT: Here's one I thought of, that I'm not 100% sure if it counts; since it's an in-joke between me and Kari instead of something something everyone on the site knows of

- JUNGRE. This one stems from the amazingly cheesy and fanservice filled '90s OVA, Jungle De Ikou; which I watched during my trip last summer. When we sat down to watch the first episode of it, we got a good laugh over how the show's title in the intro was misspelled as "Jungre De Ikou". Since then, we simply refer to it as "JUNGRE" (Yes, always in all caps) -w-

JUNGRE

trololololol, haven't thought of that in awhile. xD


hm, this thread is going to require some excavating.

let's see, not sure if they count as memes, but there's the

-Warp Zone. Frustrated by the prospect of there being OS-tan pictures out there on sites we couldn't access (or at least not without huge amounts of proxy), Nej created the NCORP Warp Zone, a convenient portal to access image boards on this site. sadly, about a year after it was created, the site (Kasumi Uploader) either went down completely or took down their OS-tan boards, either way for restructuring, taking all of the OS-tan images with it. it didn't help that the pics i had gotten were stored on an external drive, which subsequently failed, meaning we have basically no record of all the old/rare pics that were there, noteably the OS-kun ones (including some UBER-rare pics of a young 3.1-kun).

and the

-Slashfic Writing Contest. Nej got the idea that for valentine's day 2011, we should all write some OS-tan Slashfics. there was quite a bit of talk, but in the end i was the only one that delivered, creating Poke Her, a fic involving 2k-tan and one of my OCs, Myeko. in the end, since no one else posted, i won by default, and also discovered my gift for writing porn.

I wasn't around for the Slashfic Writing Contest, but I do remember the IS YOUR BODY READY challenge; of which I've written 2 stories for (Probably my proudest is Director Who: The Lost Episode; which centers on 2k-tan waking up the morning after, as she slowly pieces together what, exactly, she and Rodney McIntosh (My OC) did last night)

Also, mentioning Poke Her reminds me of how I often crack jokes about the one-and-a-half foot member xD

Another one I remember was Bella's short-lived habit of, for emphasis, quoting something someone said 3 times over, with increasing text size each time. I actually did that once as a joke; since she said "doctor" in a post she made in RPT a few years back, and I wanted to use that as a segway into assorted Doctor Who pics
Title: Re: Meme Hills Injoke Graveyard
Post by: Chocofreak13 on March 13, 2013, 11:38:25 PM
nej did that a lot too, if i recall. it's still a great way for emphasis. -w-

a really
great
way.


speaking of which, does anyone remember the CSI Glasses Meme? interesting as it was, it got kind of....
transparent.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Title: Re: Meme Hills Injoke Graveyard
Post by: Nichi on March 13, 2013, 11:47:11 PM
What I meant was not the person saying something with increasing text like that, I meant they quoted someone 3 times over and increased the text size each time on the part they wanted to emphasize the most

Also, I wouldn't count CSI as an OSC meme; given how I've seen it on GameFAQs a lot, and Know Your Meme has a page on it. Seems like a more general internet meme :\

i know what you meant, but i had nothing relevant to quote. so i made do. :\

as for the CSI thing, fair enough, but it got really popular here which is why i mentioned it. :\

I do.  Then again, I just like Falco and never knew it was a thing.

seems like it became a thing. after all, Weiner Blut is pretty trend-inspiring. :0
