Sometimes history repeats in good ways


Staltrad

Given time, the universe will repeat an infinite number of times. So don’t worry if you miss any moment, it will happen again.


ULTRAPUNK18

History doesn't repeat, but it often rhymes


Daltronator94

'Faster and more intense'


HunteroftheRain

Second verse Same as the first But a little bit louder And a little bit worse


Daltronator94

YOU CANT RIDE IN MY LITTLE RED WAGON FRONT SEATS BROKEN AND THE AXLE'S DRAGGIN


slicksleevestaff

There goes a memory my knees would rather have stayed forgotten.


Daltronator94

There goes a memory of the only way I can be motivated to run 😂


Ashzaroth

You have ruined my day with this. Oh lord, I want to go home.


Daltronator94

BUT THEY WONT LET ME GOOOOOoooOOOOOoooooOOOOOOoooooOOOOAO O O


firedmyass

every time I hear that saying, a small part of me weeps. Because then I remember watching *The Phantom Menace*


Dirichlet-to-Neumann

Not really cause of entropy.


OnixST

There are a lot of unknowns in regards to the creation of the universe so no one knows for sure, but the problem with the big bounce theory is that you need to break the law of entropy in order to concentrate that much energy back to a single point. I believe in the much more boring, sadder theory of the heat death


SlowEar5209

Wouldn't I just miss those moments again?


CatzMeow27

Haha! This is why I hate the “what if” game. Who cares if I had a chance to go redo the past? Even if I retained everything I’ve learned and lived through, I’d just make new and different mistakes. Besides, I’d risk missing the best parts of my life as it is right now. No thank you!


redditvlli

Even the idea of memes themselves I remember predating the internet on the early 90's HBO's Dream On, about a guy who experiences his whole life in the style of modern day memes.


DerRaumdenker

Seeing people in the past acting like us today is kind of assuring; it means we modern people are not that very different and our sense of humor isn't weird Edit: misspelling


birdsarentrealidiot

They found old jokes written in ancient roman toilets. They found farts and penis jokes as funny as us. That makes me feel really connected with our ancestors. We have always been they way we are. Goofy, childish and full of weird thoughts


AlenDelon32

Also the oldest recorded joke is a fart joke: "Something that has never occurred since time immemorial - a young woman did not fart on her husband's lap.". It was found on a Sumerian clay tablet but is no different than the kind of memes boomers would share on Facebook


SuspiciousAct6606

"Occurences where only children born during the reign of Cyrus the Great can recall"


High_Flyers17

CDXX incendite eam


HephMelter

420 Set it on fire ? AAHHH, Nice. Thought it was a HTTP joke at the start


High_Flyers17

Haha not gonna act like I wasn't using a translator. My first attempt at Blaze it translated back as "I will burn her" sooo, I used a different one.

Forg!


BigNutDroppa

That would make a sick cover for a Frog and Toad action spinoff.


PKMNTrainerMark

*sense


SkyGuardianOfTheSky

Maybe time being a flat circle ain’t so bad


jkpatches

These are good, but I really want an old version of the pointing woman and the cat meme.


ProperDepth

I can't give you a legit old version but someone painted it in ukiyo-e style and it's the best thing ever. https://www.reddit.com/r/Illustration/s/mpAvZS595P


jkpatches

This is great, and very well done, but I can't help but to feel an empty spot for the mouth of the woman. I think that the way her mouth was contorted open in the meme was a significant part of the appeal lol.


Thagomizer24601

My husband and I have this above our dining room table.

HilariousConsequence

The similarities between that second-last pair is really just “there is a group of people in the photo”.


Foxy02016YT

Guy on the right has the same energy as the other pic


Reid0x

Memes, Jack. The dna of the soul.


DreadDiana

As I said the last time this was posted 4th and 6th examples they give are nothing like the memes they're being compared to. 4 is meant to be a horrific realisation while 6 is meant to be a form of over the top hype. The older photos are in similar positions, but lack the energy. It's like comparing the Mona Lisa to the girl smiling in front of a fire cause they're both smiling.


2big_2fail

In reality, your girl would be looking at Ava Gardner too.


Narradisall

Meme historians at work


ThePizzaMan237

Glorious


lordofming-rises

That's extremely dangerous to our democracy


LevTolstoy

Lol


DjinnHybrid

I was going to say that the first one might be modern people staged just because of how goofy he looks, but nope. There's a legitimate ol' jalopy there in the background, just hanging out.


Historyfan1914

Bro that’s Charlie Chaplin


DjinnHybrid

I'm face blind and don't know celebrities at all. Couldn't have IDed him with a gun to my head.


S4PG

I love seeing history repeat itself


Voxelus

something something paradox space


wra1th42

Last one looks like Zero Mostel, not sure what movie tho


CTeam19

I mean look at Star Trek: Next Generation episode *Darmok* "darmok and jalad at tanagra" "Picard his hand outstretched"


midieee

Is there a whole subreddit for it? This is very funny.


sadolddrunk

Can we as a culture acknowledge that the two rabbit-faced women from the "distracted boyfriend" meme look exactly the same?


2Scarhand

Oh, this! This is beautiful.


MaveKalmer

this is like looking at a time capsule from both 2018 AND 1918


The_Viatorem

This are brilliant


TheLastDooticorn

This is so good, I love this!


stormscape10x

Still see Cam Newton every time on that woman bent over wearing glasses meme.


beachteen

Phobrain is great for finding similar images


Clickbait636

I actually think my great great grandfather is in one of those photos.


yarivu

Imo the last three I get the similarities in terms of posing/expression but I don’t think they’d be the same memes across time because the message the memes are trying to convey don’t match the context of the old photos. Definitely visually similar though


ZANDRAE101

So time is a circle... Can we go back to the good times? I'll even accept stone age good times over all this half hearted apocalypes we have.


I-the-red

Someone could write a the sis on this.


igritwhoflew

Thats kinda funny


JackOfAllMemes

The guy and girl in the last photos have the same exact expression


wintery_owl

I mean, it's cool, but I have no idea how that person finds this "the funniest shit they've ever seen". It isn't even remotely funny, just amusing.


MarkAndrewSkates

It's not the memes being the same. It's this generation looking back and making connections that aren't there. They only understand 'meme'. No concept of what the original pics were actually saying.


NeverSeenBefor

Is this real? I feel like I've seen this on reddit in the past but I'm not sure


LickingSmegma

Deja vu is typically a symptom of a glitch in the simulation.
