they become old when they get posted on facebook. They become vintage when most of the facebook boomers stop using them.

Give me a break it's been like 15 years and I didn't feel like looking it up.

When will the minion memes become vintage, will the Facebook mom's ever let them die?

I don't know when they become old but this is a straight fossil. It feels like my whole life has passed since this meme

You were probably young when you saw this meme, so i'd imagine the majority of your life did pass since you saw it. Memes get old when we get old, but now their cool again, so we are too.

That’s a pretty generous early placement for Reddit

You might be right. I just couldn't think of anything else to put ahead of it without throwing shade at Lemmy's federated allies.
