      The whole genre now is so fundamentally different, it's not "Le epic funny relatable moment" anymore. I dunno if this is one of those "signs and simulacra" things or a "deconstruction" or something, I don't read theory, but I think it might be?

      The same thing happened to doge, it's really weird. Any art history nerds in the chat?

        From what I understand they might be elements of post-irony or meta-irony where the "ironic" subject or medium moves through irony to become unironic again.
