Pretty sure it's this one.

Edit: no, damn, how could I forget:

I have it on vinyl.

same as last time this was asked:

nihil nova sub sole

Social media is a lot more popular, more memes made and attention spans are a lot lower with the algorithm cancer.

The sun is a deadly laser

I'm gonna use this when my partner is a snack I want.

Perfect score

I still use 1337 5P34K in certain games

The single sold millions of copies and is still fairly popular even outside the use in memes. You are not the only one.

I use this in Helldivers every so often.

I’m no stranger to this meme.

Funny, I hold a similar conspiracy about Montana

So your client never let you down?

open the country

stop having it be closed

The oldest meme I still quote is aggressively Brazilian (the link is a reupload, this is from like 2001)

The oldest international meme that still gets some space in my memory is probably either Over 9000 or This is Sparta.

Anytime there’s a ridiculous argument come out with the “Now Kith”

Rest in piece, flash.

It has its bugs, but im never gonna give it up.

Demotivational

Pop culture references, lack of social application, lack of brainworms weirdness. Also, possibly meme oversaturation and meme culture fragmentation making a meme not universally known to all at the time of its popularity, people live in little isolated social bubbles.

"makin copies"

Not all of them, but there's definitely a very large category of "forgotten" memes that if anybody from that era saved and saw pop back up on the screen, a lot of people would go "woah"

Like one of my favorites is courage wolf. VERY few of those from the first or second waves have survived, most are from the later waves, where even the spinoff memes with the blue pinguin or the rainbow hat dog were old. I have a folder around here with some that I saved, but it's sparse and some of the greatest, most actually inspiring ones were lost among the dumber, more sexist ones and remakes from memory.

I'd argue that courage wolf was one of the most popular memes, and it's weird to wonder what is still out there, yet to be remembered.

All your bases are belong to us

Can you hear it?

I could never choose courage over chaos.

God we're old. One day this will be the meme someone's late grandpa once showed him.

For the win…

Many people never felt the awe…

Why isn’t it XcQ?

“Alright guys, I’m capturing the objective from the enemy!” Enters monotone robotic voice: “All your base are belong to us.”

You know what I remember about this? I remember that if you let it play long enough, the audio and video went out of sync.

I work in IT and constantly use "We Get Signal" and "Main Screen Turn On" while troubleshooting tvs and monitors.
