Philosoraptor is 15 years old, Bad Luck Brian and Success Kid are 12 years, but Doge (without that background) is 10 years. Best I can do is $3.50

Doge (without that background) is 10 years.

The last one is a mix of doge and advice dog, which is almost 18 years.

One might say a forgery

Bad Luck Brian and Success Kid are 12 years

Bad Luck Brian looking old af was in a recent "The General Auto Insurance" commercial.

First, I'm amazed no other insurance company has thought of this.

Second, Bad Luck Brian can deliver his lines better than Shaq.

I mean, it just tricked some Lemmings into watching an ad.

Cheapskate Rick? I have a whole warehouse filled with him. You'd have to pay me rent to pawn that.

Doge is older than philosaraptor, forced meme and was a bannable offense on just about every *chan site for 10 years

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Once was a bannable offense, now a cryptocurrency affected by Musk xweets

There's no point or sense in my comment, pretty much the same as with what's going on with the world as of lately

They could only kill the messengers, but never the message

[–] Microw@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

Was about to say this, no way these memes are 10 years old. Even feels wrong regarding Doge tbh
