The older the internet gets, the more it’s like a city that keeps building on top of its own ruins. What’s is your favorite bit of internet archeology if memes are like artifacts and relics?

    I wish I still had it, but circa 2009 I was in high school taking a web design class, one of our projects was to design a website for an amusement park, being a bunch of nerds in a programming class, we had some pretty weird ideas for parks, mine was MemeLand

    Off the top of my head

    The front gate was a big circle being held open by 2 hands (goatse, if you’re not familiar I recommend not googling that)

    There was a picture on the wall of shame at the entrance saying that Milhouse was not permitted (Milhouse is not a meme)

    The tallest roller coaster was the Longcat

    A leekspin Ferris wheel

    A petting zoo full of cats, mudkips, badgers, and other meme critters

    A chocolate rain log flume ride

    The RickRollerCoaster

    A dark ride “Queen Boxxy’s Castle”

    There was a drop tower sort of ride sunken into a deep hole called THIS IS SPARTA

    One of the food options available in the park was NONE Pizza with Left Beef.

    Bawls was the only beverage option.
