The site, in 2006
A page about the 'All your base' meme, a garbled line from the opening scene of the video game Zero Wing.
The line is from the 1991 Sega Mega Drive version, whose English script was written by a Toaplan staff member and not a professional translator. Unlike most memes of its time, it had no crude jokes.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Meme Machine: Where the jokes everyone repeated got started.
