  • The most NICHE memes you will ever see. I've been seeing these "niche memes" more and more on Instagram, so obviously I had to make a video about them.
    In this video, I will do my best to decipher these things, and let you know why these niche memes need to stop.

      If you look up "dude" in the dictionary and it doesn't have "noun. Kurtis Conner" as a definition or a photo of him looking high, it's not a good dictionary.

      I see you, as I am, are speaking from the future and yes. When I went back and saw there was a point in which the signature stache wasn't there I was like GASP but then I enjoyed the videos anyway because they're just as funny 5 weeks ago as 5 years ago.

    Honestly this sort of thing is really fascinating to me, in terms of what are they thinking and why are they translating it this way? In general teenage girls really are the originators of so much culture. The feelings and trends and how they see themselves have such an interestingly large effect on the internet and other culture. Of course society doesnt recognize that, cuz teenage girls are just basic and dumb, right, but actually girls and young women are the originators of a lot of the meme landscapes and internet culture.

    I am totally guilty of liking niche memes, but I've never understood the ones that are like "my style vs the style I want" but literally both sides are cute so it's like what are you proving here? That you already have good style? idk but I've never understood why they're called memes lol

      they're called memes because technically a meme is any type of media on the internet that gets spread around and gains popularity
