MemberIndeed Juno indeed... Welp, let's get back to it
*Rule 78: people like to blame everything on the internet.
Second, lot of the rules here are unapdated, changed and will changes + and some are based on personal stereotypes.
As new stuff is made others get less viral, still alive in mêmes or history but not as commonly used as before.
like rule 72, Megalovania isn't as viral as it was 2 years ago, so less new songs are remade with it, they usually made more for fans rather than to go viral.
Chuck Norris mêmes, are a lengend 👌
