    Why do old memes feel like soihumor?

    • 2 years ago
      Anonymous

      It has a pretty obvious outcome - when the old memes were being created, they were new and interesting. What makes soihumour soi is the repetition, like those reddit screenshots of fifty people all making the same jokes for updoots. "What's the deal with airline food?" was actually a funny bit when Seinfeld did it the first time, and it was just one joke in a lineup of dozens of other jokes. It only starts to turn soi or boring when it gets repeated by unoriginal shitters trying to milk it for clout and updoots.

        The funny thing about old YTP memes was the repetition. The funny shit you could get out of an old format. Those memes stayed popular and fresh for years and CDI Zelda does to this day.

          That's more like variation on a theme, or slightly changing context, which is still funny

          yes, as in Cinemaphile was reddit, and then reddit was developed as a standalone website on the basis of Cinemaphile culture. reddit then as i say became a mirror that reflected Cinemaphile back at itself, Cinemaphile hated looking at breasts cringy hideous appearance and then set out to become the opposite of that. pretty standard stuff

          Reddit was Cinemaphile except it had an upvote system, and Cinemaphile didn't even have (You)s back then, so anons were creating content for the sheer lulz of it, the participation. And then you turn that around and turn it into clout and upvotes and suddenly people are just saying shit to get clout and dopamine points, which trivialises and cheapens the entire process of generative culture. ... I have thought about this a lot.

              I dunno man. You weren't there, you can't know, etc. It was a lot of silly, transient fun at the time. Mostly because it was new, we hadn't had 15 years of people repeating the same shit. This was back before anything on the internet ever spilled out into the real world. The big drawcard was that people used to using forums and BBs with like 20 posts per day all of a sudden got exposed to this one, huge site that had so much content that you'd get a whole new frontpage every time you F5'd.

                this is the worst thing that happened. i still remember seeing tumblr/sa feminists talking points like privilege etc for the first time and then the inevitable reaction they got from sites like here and then gamergate exploding. then almost all sites became political because everyone became sure their typed sentences have real word consequences when they would be mocked for taking the internet too seriously before 2010

        Yeah it’s because you guys are so fricking mentally I’ll that prolonged exposure to jokes you even like leads to hatred and misanthropy. Even now looking at an old gif you thought was funny you’re like ‘yeah current humor is shit and the world is made of bad people who take even funny things and ruin them by doing them until it makes me sick’. How about you just drop this bullshit entirely and say ‘ha mudkip was funny’ or even forgive the new generation for thinking equally as silly things are funny

          While I'm baring my soul about this stuff -- it's not about "bad people who take funny things and ruin them", it's more like "people took free culture that created funny things and turned it into a moneymaking machine that beats a dead horse, then normies plugged into that machine". Mudkip _WAS_ damn funny. For that matter, there's nothing wrong with the newer generation, there's plenty of interesting and funny shit coming out of zoomer humour and culture that I think is fricking great.

            If that’s the case I just don’t see what the corruption is supposed to be. Mudkip is funny and he got shared and enough people thought it was funny that it ended up being a fad. Sure that can be annoying but with a little patience and understanding that kids and new posters get carried away sometimes, you don’t have to register this funny image as some type of cultural problem. I definitely get it, the internet makes a lot of this stuff cringe, but it really doesn’t make sense to get mad at people for being into something you got over

                Man I remember Pepe/wojak in 2009 being still very ... unexportable outside Cinemaphile. It took until like 2016 for it to jump simultaneously into being generic templates and to be fricking everywhere else.

                Twitch is really where Pepe enters the mainstream.
                Image boards are niche. Reddit as much as it is, still niche. People don't really post only reaction images on Twitter/FB and usually do memes with more words/a joke in them.
                When twitch got a chrome extension called BTTV which allowed channels to add customizable emotes is when pepe finally hit mainstream mainstream. Also showed that most twitch watchers/influencers also browse Cinemaphile. I constantly see new/old memes making it mainstream because of a big streamer added it to their meta emote list.
                Wojaks are now growing in popularity on twitch too.

        I mean frick, with actual Monty Python this is a huge understatement. Most people alive in Britain had never seen anything like it, and it took at least a decade for anything else to catch up with it. Yeah, early Cinemaphile (and SA, even Fark.com for that matter) was a lot like this.

      There was always a troony/trap thread on /b/, and it'd get spammed with gore, the usual shitposting about calling people homosexuals and traps gay but the reality you have to accept back then was this. People just thought it was a fetish, a degenerate, garbage fetish but in the end just another form of homosexualry. Furgays and beastgays that routinely had daily threads on /b/ were seen as much worse. As well as brownies and e-girl threads. Then somewhere between then and now the bisexual/gay traps that liked to dress up in feminine clothing and camprostitute on /b/ ended up unionizing. Trannies gained full on widespread support by the medical industry and an astroturf campaign out of nowhere popularized and started legitimizing the movement in the eyes of the public as something more than another degenerate fetish posted that has a nonstop bumped thread on /b/. The monster ballooned and grew out of control to the point we are now today.
      There was always trap threads. But there wasn't always trannies. The trannies are the evolution of the cancer that was there and overlooked.

        not always, and that didn't start happening regularly till later.
        I never saw a linetrap thread get that kind of treatment, and everyone loved >her

        >People just thought it was a fetish, a degenerate, garbage fetish
        this is true, but also a little bit misleading. Being a degenerate was kind of a positive thing back then, a kind of badge of honour.
        The culture of the time was against the mainstream, and there were zero mainstream trannies or troony acceptance. It was rebellious (and funny) to coom to traps/futa. It was almost seen as a challenge to fap to shitting dick-nipples or 2girls1cup, that would make you a trve Cinemaphilener.
        You have to remember that back then it was overwhelmingly a weeb site, where today it's overwhelmingly a right-wing political site. Degenerate is something you now apply to your political enemies, not yourself.

        >Furgays and beastgays that routinely had daily threads on /b/ were seen as much worse.
        Also completely true, they were (rightly) shat on as long as I can remember.

          I mean I jacked off to it but I was also an impressionable 12 year old when I started posting on Cinemaphile in 2008. Also jacked off to furry shit and I had to cleanse a lot of that mentally out of my mind years ago when I took a step back from my horny teenager years and really looked in a mirror. The main reason I remember the gore is because I couldn't tell you the number of times that I shamefully went into a troony or fur thread and found gore posted every other post. I remember that as early as mid 2009 when the gore spammer happened. Fricking shocked I don't have a gorufetish to this day by powering through jacking off when scrolling through fully expanded images and seeing a mans torso cut open etc.
          There was definitely an echo chamber for traps and a supportive community in that thread of others who partook in the homosexualry but every 3rd or 4th post was also heckling and mocking. Just with less vitriol. Because at the time these were just seen as run of the mill homosexuals who liked to crossdress and not she/her pronoun whose transitioning to full female and was protected by their therapists note saying they could sit out PE class.

            I was the same age as you when I started coming here and fapping to trannies, but a couple of years earlier.
            Was Cinemaphile a thing by 2009? Because I stopped using /b/ and switched to there as soon as that board was launched, then came to Cinemaphile when Cinemaphile became the incel board. I can't remember when I switched to videos for fapping, but I remember my habit was to save pictures to my ipod/PSP to fap to later. So maybe I'm just forgetting about the early gore spam because I could just close those threads or not open the pictures because I wasn't browsing with my dick out. But I still feel like that came a bit later and there wasn't much negativity about trannies. Also that seems like I would have ignored that as the work of a single autist, since you didn't have post cooldowns or captchas back then, so you didn't need to coordinate that kind of stuff.
            Anyway, I never stopped fapping to trannies and I never will. I'm not as impressionable as you so I won't allow myself to feel bad about cooming to them. It feels good, I like it.

              Yeah, Cinemaphile was big in 2009, I think it started in later 2008. Fricking hell that was fun for a little while before it turned into the Cinemaphile that we know today.

        See, the thing here is that a trap by definition has to pass well enough to be able to trick a heterosexual man into thinking they're female. Trannies are all obviously men and they're so mentally ill that they chug experimental pharmaceuticals in the vain hope they can change their anatomy.
