Might sound a bit biased since I was raised during that time but I loved the MLG era. Overall the show of skill and memes that gave memories to many. Can't really say the same about the new memes which are straight up random content people repeat over and over again for like a month and then forget like goldfish

All they do is add "Skibidi" to each word in the dictionary and say "Sigma" before every word. "Sigma" doesn't even mean anything positive, it means a f**king character you'd find on a keyboard.

I'm Greek and the way sigma is used is extremeley offensive to me.

When was the last time you saw a keyboard with a sigma on it?

Idk, I don't know any keyboards in the language it comes from. I think it's Latin or Greek.

i do agree too
at the very least, back then we knew that it was all for fun/jokes/satire whatever while the new kiddies take their beloved skibi-bullshit completely seriously

The MLG Era of the internet was Semi-Brainrot. As of now, Gen Alpha Brainrot is Pure, and Hell on Earth. It infects the mind and consumes the Body, becoming one With the "Skibidi-Rizz Fanum Tax Ohio Sigma Kai Cenat Rot" that is Modern Brainrot. Beware the Internet, for it is in its darkest days right now...

Anyways, thank you for coming to my Ted Talk-

exactly
brainrot has always been around, we just didn't notice it (much like how gen alpha doesn't notice that this skibidi toilet and whatever other crap is also brainrot)
that, and also, vine... literally the tiktok before tiktok

I used to watch Lankybox a lot as a middle schooler, assuming that Justin and Adam were some innocent, funny guys just fooling around and making funny content for me to laugh at. But I stopped watching them because all they do nowadays is scream their heads off and act like nine-year-olds just for likes and views and crap like that. I HATE IT

Yeah but to be fair TMNT wasn’t really brain rot
2 ups, 6d
back in the days, that, and other shows, was all that children wanted to do. it may not have psychological effects like youtube shorts and tiktok does, but it sure as hell took up a lot of their life.
