Oooh, that was when Mayahee, mayahoo was first on YT wasn’t it? That and all those twisted humour animations. Fun and disturbing times.

Apologies, it’s been a while I forgot the name. I just knew it started like that.

And “Kilroy was here” is a meme that predates computers

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

It even predates me.

[–] bluewing@lemm.ee 3 points 5 days ago

It's possible Kilroy predates the Roman Empire. And he will certainly be here after the heat death of the universe.

I need more backstory on that one! I'll search the web, but I definitely heard that name before and never knew who he was!

It’s one of the earliest memes from graffiti done by allied soldiers

Hehe wow! Quite some history there!

Turns out I knew "him" from Styx!

And as I recall that concept album was about being forced to conform in an authoritarian state.

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

And it's a great album to this day.
