Internet Meme Scenery

Posted by Queuebot in Blog & Internet on May 28, 2009 at 12:33 am


Andy Baio of waxy.org blog posted 23 photos of backgrounds from various internet memes. Like Garfield without Garfield, the result is strangely disconcerting.

Would you still recognize what these Internet memes are, well, without the actual memes?

These photos are banal out of context. Only someone familiar with the original memes would sense something’s amiss, like the set of a play waiting for the actors to stumble into history.
