Also I don't think that era of humor was purely gen z. I feel like it was the meeting place between millennials and gen z on the internet. I have a friend who when I used to work with him he'd make shit like that.

Same. The younger side of the Millennial generation invented comedy like "Dave", but it was a bit more niche. Youtube poop like PINGAS is pretty much the same exact humor as this.
>>
>>220937868
that's a fair connection actually. Maybe I'm overthinking it, but it feels like it's "humor through distortion" or something like that. Either way I'm not gonna begrudge the next generation for kind of melding with the previous generations humor in their own way.
I'm concerned for gen alpha though, and not in the "kids ruin everything" way.
>>
>>220933966
I liked that one, but I never got the appeal of annoying orange. Guess I was a bit more into the Harry Potter and a stone/secret porn cellar fandubs Those were clever and over the top absurdist. Now the lady that did them sold herself out and works for the state doing edutainment animation like why the EU is great and how to not die from covid. It is funny because she got famous for tranny jokes and racism and now is a 40 year old woke spinster

No millennial is young enough to have ever enjoyed Annoying Orange, unless they are literally retarded.
>>
>>220938614
But wasn't annoying orange "peak millennial" and vanished before zoomers even started using the internet?
>>
>>220938702
>2009-2014
gen z would have been children at that time who couldn't have been reasonably blamed for liking something miserable like that. I'm sure there were millennial fans as there are fans of all things from all times, but it was pretty commonly derided with "what the fuck is this shit" type of responses.
>>
>>220938741
internet historian fren, who liked the Lord of the Weed series? This is another one that just absolutely did not connect with me. Maybe I just don't like weedbro humor or the fact that lord of the rings was super boring and parodies even more so, because they were made by lotr fans which don't have the capacity to make fun of their holy books unlike star wars fans
>>
>>220938823
going that far back, the strikezones for what we look at as cringe humor now were a bit different. The userbase of the internet as a whole was a lot smaller, so generally it was only enthusiasts and dorks finding stuff like that. There's a lot of stuff that looking back on it, it wasn't funny, but there was a big culture turn of the millennium around just creating stuff, and things like early flash were just like that a lot.

there was still a variety of tastes back then but it would be the same people who liked those flash videos of japanese songs being incorrectly subtitled (think like the Yatta! song)
not to sound like an old man yelling at clouds, but you have to seperate pre and post iphone internet as seperate eras where communities were a lot more scattered and niche compared to afterwards.

Sorry to ramble. to answer your question, it would probably be young millenials, dudeweedbros, and the more tech savvy gen X.
>>
>>220938982
Please ramble more. I enjoy it. Makes me reminisce about those days. They were horrible, but the entertainment was better than it is today. Nigahiga and those british gay dork comedy guys were also big before youtubers turned into influencers and were handled by boomer money bag agencies.
>>
>>220938741
The oldest zoomers were legal adults in 2014. There is no way in hell most fans of Annoying Orange and Fred were millennials.
>>
>>220939067
I really miss the old internet, and even early youtube a lot. Lot's of things that you only found because either you took the time crawling the internet for it, or someone else told you about it.
there's still little pockets of wonder to find these days but you have to search really hard, and sometimes it's fleeting.
I remember my friends wanted to be youtubers way back before there was really much money in it. Honestly I miss even the terribly unfunny stuff because it was made with sincerity that has died in a lot of peoples hearts that are now too afraid to be cringe in order to find their own niche.
>>
>>220939124
I was saying the majority of the fans would likely be gen Z because most of that generation would be kids in those year ranges. yeah the oldest of them would be adults by the time annoying orange finished, but when it started, the oldest of them would be 12-13, with the rest being younger of course. Those are the year ranges it makes sense to be into something dumb like that.

true, true.
I also miss the true meme format days. the red and blue penguin one for example, ehrmagerd girl, the lot. God I made so many stupid Javert memes, it was so fun. I think Game of Thrones season 3 and 4 were the last times the internet genuinely was funny and creative with memes and material before it turned into just reposting the exact same meme so everyone sees it, no more scrapping and making your own version of it.
Maybe coffin dance was truly the coffin dance of the internet.

from this I'm guessing you either came to the internet a bit after me or are a bit younger. No hostility intended, I just remember when those first showed up that there was a wave of people calling them "the cancer" and how it was around then that I heard people trying to say "meme" out loud in public for the first time.
like I said, nothing meant by it, there's just a significant amount of my gray matter that is dedicated to scattered memories of early /b/, and the pre 4chan internet on forums as well.

I remember one that existed for almost no time at all but it was "dog help bear get apples" and it was just so pointless, but it happened anyways, and practically no one else remembers. All these moments etc etc.
>>
>>220939623
some of them were funny. a lot of oc was made on /b/.
There were also the ones like FUUUUUUU with panels and people would draw. even with the generic ones that got reposted everywhere, it invited a lot more oc than now

>some of them were funny.
for sure, I just remember the culture around it as the internet grew bigger. As the wider public grew to know about internet culture, there was this frustration with calling everything a meme (as well as with saying the word out loud which is where the whole "maymay" thing came from.
it was mostly just a bunch of the previous guard not liking how fast the internet was changing since it really did explode into popularity. rage faces were something that everyone enjoyed, then got sick of (on 4chan) by the time they were called rage faces and everyone else was adopting them, but when they came back for a short while years later, to be honest I liked that. it was also nice seeing them return after how the site had been going downhill in a lot of ways.
>>220939691
that makes sense, I was on since the late 90s, so it was largely like I said, people reacting to change that was happening faster than it had ever happened before.

Also I think there was this general fear of people not wanting to draw up new jokes and just rely on templates, and well, templates were never bad but there's always going to be concerns over people losing that spark.


As a side note, I found a community on reddit making posts about that bear apples thing I talked about 16 years ago, which itself must have been 5 years since it was a thing on /b/

Of the jokes in this image?

Boomer>Zoomer>Millenial>Gen X
>>
>>220934199
Gen Z is inside jokes but there was never any context behind them to begin with.
>>
>>220940593
Hell no, they get worse the older they get.

Boomer is easily the worst, since it's just old man yells at cloud, those darn kids and their stupid video games. The joke just feeds the boomer's already inflated ego, nothing more.

Gen X is better, but still bad. Just a dad joke and pop culture reference combo. Definitely unfunny, but at least it's not spiteful like that of the boomer.

Millennial is approaching funny, but definitely not there. Self-deprecating and bordering on witty, but ultimately corny and lame.

Zoomer one is a riot. I laugh every time I see that meme.
>>
>>220937686
Finally GOOD Gen X animation

there is no such thing as humor, just statements any arbitrary worldview isn't conditioned to parse on first contact. the more un-retarded you become, the more jokes go from being funny to being trite or simply static.
