This. And 9gag's userbase was utterly incapable of understanding the mems correctly. Which lead to plenty of them being used in completely inadequate situations. It became shameful to use them because of how they could be associated with 9gag's absolute failure.

normies happened
they destroy every meme they touch
No. This was cancerous from the start. Epic fail guy was never funny either. This crop of memes was the beginning of the end.
Memes used to be mostly non sense in jokes. You can cry about normies all you fucking want but memes like this and Pepe which are designed to be adapted to anything. Any emotion and type of person, those are the memes that are easy for normies to co opt. Spamming do a barrel roll and desu desu desu wouldn't have taken off on twitter or Facebook . Nobody would have understood. The problem was never 9gag or normies. The problem was turning memes into fucking templates. You faggots ruined 4chan. This shit and the advice dog type macros.

They basically made Impact fonts have the same "impact" as Comic Sans. RIP Impact-based macros.
