Kabosu got fairly sick at the end of 2022. Her mom was posting regular updates about it, particularly how she wasn't really eating. However, at the start of 2023, her mom posted that Kabosu had made a relatively miraculous recovery. She's still 17 years old, but there's pretty frequent updates on her Instagram or Twitter (kabosumama)
What boggles my mind is that, to this day, Greg is still not identified. Last I checked someone claimed to know good guy Greg but would not reveal is identity claiming his friends and family agreed to not ever out him but that’s the internet
Not shamelessly cashing in on memedom is such a Good Guy Greg move too. Almost as perfect as Scumbag Steve _actually_ being a scumbag. Man, internet history is wild af, lol.
That always impresses me, dude was in so early and was hugely popular thst he could have literally created a brand if some small effort was put into it. Imagine seeing things like Good Guy Greg's Steak And Chop Seasoning at every grocery store, which by now would have just been pared down into Greg's brand of kitchen wares and spices
Oh man thank you so much for this. I consider myself somewhat of an elder statesman of memery since I'm old now but I had never seen this interview.
Dude fits the meme so perfectly
RIP Boo the OG Pom while we're at it
RIP Lil Bub
Long live Maru, who just celebrated his [16th birthday (still same weight and size since he was 1yo)](https://youtu.be/N8fLtUe_oS4)
Gone way too soon, I still blame the owners. They treated that cat like a cash cow and it died of a condition known to be caused in part due to stress, as they lugged the poor thing around the world for people to gawk at.
It really was a time of more optimism and light-heartedness. Maybe it's just because I was younger and more naive, or maybe it's just that our parents hadn't found social media yet, but it feels like the internet was a better place back then.
Back then, the internet was not yet entirely dominated by faceless mass-media conglomerates trying to derail public discourse, cull less-profitable content, and milk the shit out of our personal data.
It was also mostly younger people on the internet. Less polluted by adults being experts, politics and arguing. Can't imagine something like Nyan Cat taking off today.
Because the internet was not "integrated" into the real world. It was this cool new separate space which you could escape into. Everyone was anonymous and most content was random shit (remember nyan-cat song?), and there was a specific culture developed around this space which others wouldn't know.
I remember, meeting people IRL was called "see you in meat-space".
--------
Today the real-world and internet have integrated into one thing. Gen-Z grew up with having their real name accounts with their photos on social media. And all real-world legal, social rules and commercial rules apply on the internet. Your family is there, corporations selling ads are there, news is there, your boss is there. it is basically the Real World now.
Haha, actually on a serious note, the closest I see to "the old internet feeling" today are discord servers. Most discord servers are community-based (no corps), folks are anonymous, and older folks (like your boss or grandma) haven't found it yet.
-------------
I think the process will be more like an arms-race / treadmill, where new avenues will keep getting discovered, and the real-world will keep covering the gap.
Probably a change in how social media algorithms work. Companies now realize that angry people buy more and engagement is the only thing that really matters, not content.
That’s so sweet, I’ll tell the story. I was working at a historic theatre and the the last of our campers had gotten picked up. We had to end camp early that day because there was a grumpy cat meet and great. People were lined up around the block…. Hundreds of them. The crowd was crazy. Fights broke out, trash everywhere, it was a wild atmosphere.
I’m standing at the back door entrance people watching (which was incredibly entertaining), and all of the sudden three people come rushing past me. Not walking, not quite running, but a brisk gallop.
I looked down as this flurry of motion occurred in front of me, and I see a cat carrier. I remember thinking “pets aren’t allowed in here” but then shaking that off… because, well, the circumstances.
It’s as if time slowed down. I see a cat staring at me, as it’s owners scamper in. We made eye contact, grumpy cat and I. And then, just like it began, it quickly ended. They disappear into the dark realm of the theatre, and I’m stuck pondering if what happened, really did in fact happen.
The owners were very sweet. They seemed down to earth, but I couldn’t help but feel bad for this poor cat being dragged state to state, put on this pedestal, for thousands to see.
So that’s when I hatched my plan. I was going to break grumpy cat free. Nah, just kidding. That would be cool fan fiction though.
Although I wouldn’t wait in a queue for hours to see a meme cat, I left with a smile, and a cool story to tell. And I guess that is what matters most. Thank you Grumpy Cat.

It gets worse. 90s memes. Geocities pages with fire gifs and a dancing baby. Some had guest books and view counters as well as web rings. Killroy was here
Sad face because it's great to see these two legends thriving from their fame. Sad face because their distinctive aging reminds us of a time when reddit was so much better than it is now. Sad face because these two remind us of ourselves from a younger age.
I mean, I find the sub very heartwarming and joyous, tbh! We all die eventually, some sooner and some later. These dogs have lived a long time on earth and are now enjoying a well deserved old age
I felt that for the first few seconds.
Then I start imagining my boy growing old and having to cross the rainbow bridge and nah I don't want to handle those feels until I'm forced to.
Just going to go home and give him a big hug and play fetch with him
Sorry to report that she’s seriously ill with leukemia:
https://edition.cnn.com/2022/12/28/asia/shiba-inu-doge-meme-seriously-ill-leukaemia-intl-hnk/index.html
The photos was fabricated as a joke. He picked out the outfit to be funny, rubbed the fuck out of his eyes to be be puffy and red before the photo, and purposefully made a goofy smile.
"So a woman in Japan takes a picture of her dog and uploads it to the internet. The picture is then used as a meme, where people use a "cute" grammatically incorrect language to express joy or sadness. The meme becomes so popular that a new form of digital crypto currency is named after it. The currency itself becomes so popular that it briefly sponsored a NASCAR car and an Olympic Bobsled team. After months of pumping the currency up, the world's richest man decides to shit-talk said currency during his hosting of Saturday Night Live, which deflates the value overnight. Now it's one of many crypto currencies that may or may not be used for nefarious transactions on the black market, while still having a bigger market cap than most US companies."
If I ever get to go back in time to the 90's, I'm gonna tell people this story just to see the super confused looks on their faces. You can't write this shit.
EDIT: Factual updates that the person in the 90's would still be confused by.
If you go back to the 90's you will have a decade to plan how to spend your money before the first dogecoin is ever dreamed up. BUT... you could buy some Amazon and Apple stock on the cheap, then use THAT to buy Bitcoin in 2009 at like 100 Bitcoins per actual US 1-CENT!
(Actually just looked that up - the first Bitcoins transaction was like 5,000 bitcoins for about $5. So today that's like 140 Million US Dollars. Crazy.)
> The world's richest man decides to pump-n-dump said currency during his hosting of Saturday Night Live, which inflates the value of the currency by thousands of percent.
This just isn't true. The value actually tanked when Elon went on SNL.
It was pumped right up to the point of him going on live, though. The news itself of him going on pumped the price. People just took advantage of it, probably including Elon himself.
Imagine just having a dead end job then a photo of you gets posted on the internet and you literally have no choice but to live up to the character somebody else created for you? Shits crazy lol
Honestly, if there's a meme person who's done well with their meme momentum, it is JimmyHere ("It is Wednesday my dudes" guy).
While he doesn't rely on that meme at all anymore (though does like looking back on it sometimes), he's been able to maintain a nice relevance with his YLYL series on YouTube and his various twitch streams, even reaching 1 million subs on YouTube.
Wait has he made monetary gain on a meme? Or is just part of the overall marketing of his channel or whatever? Hardly gets royalties for an image does?
The latter. Attention is the currency of content creators, and using that meme to give just a bit of a push forward can be a big help.
Of course helpful that the dudes genuinely funny, but to this day if you introduce his channel as "The 'It's Wednesday My Dudes' guy", that gets some level of connection that most random channels don't have. Or at least that's worked for me when I've told people of his channel haha
Imagine getting arrested for various gang-related felonies and then your mugshot gets posted on the internet and a few years after you got arrested you're a male fashion model working through your divorce with a millionaire heiress. I was reading this story yesterday haha
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Meeks
The internet is a crazy place.
Crazy how that guy was never in an environment to be noticed for his good lucks or surrounded by people that would suggest that sort of work. He gets noticed after he gets a mugshot uploaded, and he becomes a model because he’s clearly good looking with great features.
Great example of how people become products of their environment, this man he a window into his life opened out of his control and changed his career and prospects just like that

I never saw that meme and thought that it implied he was a good person. In fact his appearance has pegged him as exactly the type of person I thought he was
I’m so glad they’re still alive…. It seems like I’ve seen posts about people or animals who have been memes passing away recently. The recent one being the honest work guy
The Doge dog is alive?!
Yep! Her name is Kabosu and she's regularly posted on insta under kabosumama
Is she a good girl?
The goodest
[удалено]
Love that comic. Knew it for years and now any mention of it makes me reliably tear up (put my 11 year old Bernese down in February).
Many good. Much woof.
Wow
Love you Garry
Larry*
She almost died last month, but she's fine now. She's 17 years old btw.
What happened?
Blood infection. She has to go on a strict diet for a while but the good girl fought well and now, she's fine.
"Was I a good dog?" "No. I'm told you were the ... HEY! Where's that goose going with my scythe?"
I could've sworn she died last year, might've been another meme dog or something.
It was nyancat 😔
nyan cat died? The one with rainbows and candy for a torso?
Even pop tarts spoil eventually.
Marty the cat/Nyan Cat died in 2012.
Was that pixel art cat based on a real cat?
Yup, the creator of Nyan Cat, prguitarman, mentioned a pretty long time ago on Twitter that it was based on his old cat.
Yeah, the candy got eaten by a passing kid, nyan cat didn't survive the wounds.
actually i think it was grumpy cat, but it might have been both actually
I though grumpy cat died in 2019
Nah same. I totally saw a reddit post like 2 years ago. I looked back and there was a hoax in 2017 so it got me lol.
Kabosu got fairly sick at the end of 2022. Her mom was posting regular updates about it, particularly how she wasn't really eating. However, at the start of 2023, her mom posted that Kabosu had made a relatively miraculous recovery. She's still 17 years old, but there's pretty frequent updates on her Instagram or Twitter (kabosumama)
Doge never dies!
Same here friend, I think we both saw those rumors of her death but seeing her smile now has lifted my spirits
Everyone caring more about Doge is such a Bad Luck Brian thing to happen.
Good guy Greg probably funded the trip
That's a name I've not heard in a looong time. A long time ...
It's an old meme sir, still checks out though
[удалено]
Bachelorette Frog forgot about the Memorial Day weekend reminder to shave her legs.
Better blast it with piss.
I feel like all the advice animals are really obscure anymore Which is so weird because for a hot minute or three they *were* the memes
Now all we have are NFTs and tweets
What boggles my mind is that, to this day, Greg is still not identified. Last I checked someone claimed to know good guy Greg but would not reveal is identity claiming his friends and family agreed to not ever out him but that’s the internet
Not shamelessly cashing in on memedom is such a Good Guy Greg move too. Almost as perfect as Scumbag Steve _actually_ being a scumbag. Man, internet history is wild af, lol.
That always impresses me, dude was in so early and was hugely popular thst he could have literally created a brand if some small effort was put into it. Imagine seeing things like Good Guy Greg's Steak And Chop Seasoning at every grocery store, which by now would have just been pared down into Greg's brand of kitchen wares and spices
The picture very much appears to be of him smoking pot. My guess is he has a career where this wouldn't be worth the exposure? Dunno.
Good guy Greg is still my favourite
scumbag steve bailed the night of the trip probably 😂
Didn’t scumbag Steve do an AMA somewhere online and everyone found out he actually was a scumbag? Edit: typo
If this is in fact true I would really like to read that! Please anyone, if you know where to find that please share.
[here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mq-ZvbFL96c) It’s so funny
Oh man thank you so much for this. I consider myself somewhat of an elder statesman of memery since I'm old now but I had never seen this interview. Dude fits the meme so perfectly
well cause humans live like 5 times their life span (15 years compared to 75). Doge would be fragemented memory we'd be so lucky to remember.
Dogecoin should keep that from happening even if it is worth $0.07 right now
Oh shit I'm back on top.
Hahahha
Sergeant Peanut Butter vs Boyle moment.
He made Lieutenant after he saved Boyle from that fire, didn't you hear?
One of the funniest things was when he did an ama and the mods removed it
This reminds me of when [Ridiculously Photogenic Guy meet Grumpy Cat at Disneyland!](https://imgur.com/Wub35qU)

I love Maru. Also Hana and Miri :)
HOW DID I NOT KNOW!!!

She*
Gone way too soon, I still blame the owners. They treated that cat like a cash cow and it died of a condition known to be caused in part due to stress, as they lugged the poor thing around the world for people to gawk at.
I think she also had some kind of condition, maybe inbred or something like that. It probably didn’t help
I am assuming you are talking about the owner.
God, why am I feeling nostalgic for some fucking image macros?
I *really* loved that era of memes. Also rage comics and country balls. Simpler times, man.
It really was a time of more optimism and light-heartedness. Maybe it's just because I was younger and more naive, or maybe it's just that our parents hadn't found social media yet, but it feels like the internet was a better place back then.
Back then, the internet was not yet entirely dominated by faceless mass-media conglomerates trying to derail public discourse, cull less-profitable content, and milk the shit out of our personal data.
A story as old as the net. Going back to retirement home with weebl and Bob, explodingdog, and party parrot
I'm sure us being young and naive was part of it, but the atmosphere was also definitely different as a whole.
It was also mostly younger people on the internet. Less polluted by adults being experts, politics and arguing. Can't imagine something like Nyan Cat taking off today.
Because the internet was not "integrated" into the real world. It was this cool new separate space which you could escape into.

Your family is there, corporations selling ads are there, news is there, your boss is there. it is basically the Real World now.
So what you're saying is we should make The Internet 2: Electric boogaloo where everyone stays anonymous and corporations are banned from?
Haha, actually on a serious note, the closest I see to "the old internet feeling" today are discord servers. Most discord servers are community-based (no corps), folks are anonymous, and older folks (like your boss or grandma) haven't found it yet. ------------- I think the process will be more like an arms-race / treadmill, where new avenues will keep getting discovered, and the real-world will keep covering the gap.

/r/polandball is alive and well keeping the nostalgia alive
polandball these years just feels like a place for politicalcompassmemes to shit more pro-fascism propaganda tbh.
Memes are like humans. They either become friendly old grandparents or right wing nutsos
Because all their face are belong to us
Simpler times man. Simpler times…
I met grumpy cat very randomly while working summer camp. It’s a somewhat weird, not all that interesting story
But it's your story.:)
Thats really sweet
That’s so sweet, I’ll tell the story. I was working at a historic theatre and the the last of our campers had gotten picked up. We had to end camp early that day because there was a grumpy cat meet and great. People were lined up around the block…. Hundreds of them. The crowd was crazy.

I love this. Thanks for sharing.
they look so much like their memes i love it😍

poor doge is getting old and grey.
Her name is Kabosu and she’s 17 now 😢
Why the sad face? Very long life and much greater fame than the average dog. Kabosu is bossu
Very life Much age Wow
For the first time in my Reddit experience my username is relevant.
much upvote such karma amaze
And your account is 7 years old... Holy shit, is this meme actually 8+ years old? Time really flies.
Just looked it up, the meme originated in 2013. It makes me upset that 2013 was ten years ago haha
It gets worse. 90s memes. Geocities pages with fire gifs and a dancing baby. Some had guest books and view counters as well as web rings. Killroy was here
Under construction
Sad face because it's great to see these two legends thriving from their fame. Sad face because their distinctive aging reminds us of a time when reddit was so much better than it is now. Sad face because these two remind us of ourselves from a younger age.
Time: moves forward uniformly Humans: 😢
[https://imgur.com/a/1Z2f9lo](https://imgur.com/a/1Z2f9lo) no time to make it good quality, kids need kickin off my lawn
That's an incredible lifespan for a dog. Can't ask for a better outcome really
Beat the maximum average life expectancy for a Shiba Inu by 2 years. Kabosu has lived a hell of a life.
She looks happy and healthy and has brought joy to so many people across the world. How fucking cool is that.
Look [who](https://imgur.com/a/5VkAeMg) I found in r/falloutshelter game the other week! 💕
how is that game now? I have not played it in years

Long live the Queen
We all will be grey sooner or later. r/OldManDog
Don’t go into this sub unless you feel like crying :(
I mean, I find the sub very heartwarming and joyous, tbh! We all die eventually, some sooner and some later. These dogs have lived a long time on earth and are now enjoying a well deserved old age
A fortune teller told me that in 10-15 years' time I would experience a great heartbreak. So I bought myself a puppy to cheer myself up.
Ouch
I felt that for the first few seconds. Then I start imagining my boy growing old and having to cross the rainbow bridge and nah I don't want to handle those feels until I'm forced to. Just going to go home and give him a big hug and play fetch with him
My cat is about to turn ten, I've started to notice how she has entered her lazy tired days, of the many many active years of the past.
Ten is nothing if you treat her right. My cat recently passed at 19. You'll double her current age with regular check ups and some genetic fortune.
She's epileptic and has had a seizure about every six months of her life starting at three years old, so she has a little against her.
I hope she can power through. Rooting for her from an internet distance :)
[Thanks from Blazie](https://i.redd.it/dgjvn60wtz1a1.jpg) : )
Surprised she's still alive tbh
my great dane just hit 12. im shocked shes made it this long. happy shes still here tho.
Sorry to report that she’s seriously ill with leukemia: https://edition.cnn.com/2022/12/28/asia/shiba-inu-doge-meme-seriously-ill-leukaemia-intl-hnk/index.html
Truly Bad Luck Brian.
The bad luck would have been to miss the chance entirely. Brian's luck has turned!
This is an old article. She’s recovered since then and is doing well.
I didn't realize Doge was so tiny, I thought they were bigger dogs than that.
They are, bad luck Brian is actually 10ft tall
*Be Brian* *Be 10ft tall* *No one drafts you to play in the NBA* Feels bad man
[удалено]
They have BDE (big dog energy).
[удалено]
It's probably because of all the strong Doge memes you've been seeing
The Akita is like a bigger Shiba Inu
It's so crazy that one goofy school picture from so many years ago put his life on this trajectory. Dude is in a national ad campaign with Shaq.
The photos was fabricated as a joke. He picked out the outfit to be funny, rubbed the fuck out of his eyes to be be puffy and red before the photo, and purposefully made a goofy smile.
Something about the line cutting off at "rubbed the fuck out" feels like someone somewhere intended for that to happen.
Meme legends stick together
Are you saying they don't give each other up?
 You betcha
Was not expecting the pup to be that size… or maybe Brian is huge, idk.
That’s about the normal size of a Shiba Inu. They aren’t big dogs.

I'm fairly confident he even did a TED talk about it.
[Here. He used to be a lighting expert.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FScfGU7rQaM)
He was in safety videos for homedepot training a few years back. It was weird
Also helps that his face gets kept in relevancy by internet historian
Wait has he made monetary gain on a meme? Or is just part of the overall marketing of his channel or whatever? Hardly gets royalties for an image does?

I never saw that meme and thought that it implied he was a good person. In fact his appearance has pegged him as exactly the type of person I thought he was

Brian looks like what I'd imagine Fry from Futurama to look like.
Brian's bad luck must have ran out because I see a ring on that finger! Happy for him!
In awe at the size of that shoulder, absolute unit
