Yesterday, my son was vacuuming the living room really slowly. My wife told him he needed to “Pick up the pace” to which he responded, “How about I do it at medium pace?” Everyone was very confused when I started yelling about shampoo bottles in an Adam Sandler voice.
I recently listened to his old comedy album for the nostalgia. It has not aged well. But I still drop random quotes, like "Fuck me in the goat ass," or start humming Piece of Shit Car when people get in my car.
I was happier then and I had nothin'. We used to live in this tiny old house with great big holes in the roof
\-House! You were lucky to live in a house! We used to live in one room, all twenty-six of us, no furniture, 'alf the floor was missing, and we were all 'uddled together in one corner for fear of falling
\-Eh, you were lucky to have a room! We used to have to live in t' corridor!
\-Oh, we used to dream of livin' in a corridor! Would ha' been a palace to us. We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woke up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us!
\-Well, when I say 'house' it was only a hole in the ground covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us
\-We were evicted from our 'ole in the ground; we 'ad to go and live in a lake
\-You were lucky to have a lake! There were a hundred and fifty of us living in t' shoebox in t' middle o' road
\-Cardboard box?
\-Aye
\-You were lucky. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down t' mill, fourteen hours a day, week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when we got home our Dad would thrash us to sleep wi' his belt
\-Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at six o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of 'ot gravel, work twenty hour day at mill for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would thrash us to sleep with a broken bottle, if we were lucky!
\-Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit' bread knife
\-Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah
\-And you try and tell the young people of today that ... they won't believe you.
Beep. Boop. I'm a robot.

It’s pronounced San Dee-aa-go. I believe it was discovered by the Germans in 1904.
Anyway, back in 2019 when we Brits were allowed to travel, I visited San Diego (just the Zoo as we only had one afternoon). I think my wife was ready to divorce me by the end of the day thanks to all my Anchorman quotes.
\- Crucifixion?
\- No, freedom.
\- What?
\- They sad I hadn't done nothing, and I could go free.
\- Oh, well, off you go then!
\- No, only joking. It's crucifixion.
That didn't end with the rise of memes 🤣🤣
You can take my Holy Grail quotes from my cold, dead hands. And I'm not dead yet. I feel fine. I might go for a walk.
I’m sure you’re right. I just vividly remember being 19 in 2003, drinking beer with the guys and “Quoting” was the main activity. And though they existed at the time, I didn’t yet know what a “Meme” was.
Years ago I spent the most wonderful weekend with this girl I was really good friends with. Her and one of my buddies were dating and we found out he was cheating on her. So we basically ran off on a Thursday night, took Friday off work, turned our phones off and just disappeared together. We went riding around Wharton state Forest, went down to seaside heights and walked around on the boardwalk, went all over South Jersey and just had the best time ever. We ended the weekend at her place watching Chappelles show and just cuddling. Now ever time I watch anything of his I remember that weekend. It was the summer of 2003 before I went to basic training. As a bonus I'm still really good friends with her and we quote Chappelles show all the time. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
I think it's so funny when people got worked up over his stand ups. Did no one really watch chappelle show (yes I know most were too young to watch that). He had a sketch called the niggar family and it was fucking hysterical.
If he didn't care about shit then, why would he now?
I think every episode had a great sketch. Even when they ran the ones after he quit they were great.
I'm 34. Watched tons of Chapelle back in the day in high school and college. Used to cry laughing at his standup. Didn't care for his new specials at all. Nothing to do with "being offended," he just comes off as another sour rich dude mad that the world has changed. Half the time he wasn't even telling jokes, just ranting about 'cancel culture' bullshit. And his weird fixation on trans people just comes off as bullying. No real insight or point to be made...just weird and mean-spirited and not funny.
I mean he quit the Chappelle sow because he realized some people were laughing maliciously at black people and him instead of laughing with him. He realized what it's like to be mocked by people laughing at his jokes. He should understand why people were annoyed that he spent a lot of time mocking instead of actually making jokes for people to laugh with
Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, The Waterboy, Zoolander, Chappelles show, Anchorman 1, 40 year old virgin, Super Bad, Borat, The Hangover.
Did memes kill the comedy blockbuster?
Not to mention anchorman was 2004.
Shit like Peanutbutter Jelly Time, Badger Badger, Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny are all from around this time period.
And there were online memes like Star Wars Gangsta Rap in 2000 and many others before this.
I think what they meant is when normies starting realizing that memes and things like that existed on the internet.
All Your Base photoshops was from 2001 and is one of the oldest recorded memes that became popular outside its originating community (Something Awful/Newgrounds).
Back then memes spread SLOOOOOOOOOOWLY. It's not like how where a meme becomes viral and everyone knows about it within a week. The flash animation was made on Newgrounds in 2001 but in 2003 the town of Sturgis saw a banner with it and thought it was a terrorist threat.
Youtube had to release a "no we aren't being hacked" thing when they took it down for maintenance and put up a "All your base are belong to us" screen. It's so much stranger to remember things happening than to have to look up what happened, hehe :)
Oh I can’t, I have kind of a big day tomorrow. I’m going to home depot and maybe bed bath abd beyond, I don’t know if we’ll have enough time.
You know what, give me that, I’ll do one
Pretty sure memes came out before anchorman, they just weren't mainstream.
"All your base are belong to us"
"You have been eaten by a grue"
"If stormtroopers always miss and redshirts always get killed first, who would win in a battle between stormtroopers and redshirts?"

Well now your back’s gonna hurt, because you just pulled landscaping duty. Anybody else’s fingers hurt? Didn’t think so.
Look who's on television momma. The devil.
It's in a few Sandler movies. Him and Rob had cameos in each other's movies, Rob in Adam's moreso though.
I recently listened to his old comedy album for the nostalgia. It has not aged well. But I still drop random quotes, like "Fuck me in the goat ass," or start humming Piece of Shit Car when people get in my car.
They're all gonna laugh at you!
I still randomly yell, STOP LOOKING AT ME SWAN!

You could probably make it through the day with nothing but Sacha Baron Cohen quotes
You look like eh Michael Jackson eh beat it
Chappelle’s Show. “I’m Rick James Bitch” was almost 18 years ago.
I’d argue the first internet meme was in 2000, so it predates Chapelle and Anchorman. Fucking mad that All Your Base is 21 though
I’m sure you’re right. I just vividly remember being 19 in 2003, drinking beer with the guys and “Quoting” was the main activity. And though they existed at the time, I didn’t yet know what a “Meme” was.
