Weegee Fad: Should it end prematurely?

I've been thinking about this for some time now, and I think now is the time to do this.

Like many other people, I think there shouldn't be any more new Weegees. They are anoying and are complete [removed]. As ED said, these people are just trying to look important. The only "Weegees" are Weegee, Malleo and Fortran. The rest of the characters from Mario Is Missing, Mario's Time Machine, Super Mario World Bros, and Super Bioman are minor and aren't important.

I'm not linking to there, but. I'll tell ya this:

Aren't fads supposed to get outta control?

SERIOUSLY! Fads are supposed to be the some of the most overrated stuff of all time. The only way to end a fad is to just let it die down.

Really, that's how the old fads USA had, before WWII, died.

What do you think?

Re: Weegee Fad: Should it end prematurely?

I think that everything born in 4chan needs to die now.

That includes rickrolling, lolcats, fake motivators, and weegee amongst others.

They were amusing at first but they soon became tiresome.

If cats could talk, they'd express themselves far better than "OMG 12 YEER OLD GIRL IS TYPPING FOR MEE!!!!1!!". Oh, and Weegee seems to be a bad MS Paint creation. Tell me, why do we need more of that?

rickrolling - should stay
lolcats - should stay
fake motivators - you mean like rickrolling? if you do, they should stay.
weegee - I don't know who the heck "Weegee" is but it's kinda annoying and taking up all the REAL inspiration and more topics. DOWN WITH WEEGEE! UP WITH FUN!

Re: Weegee Fad: Should it end prematurely?

Appearantly, people don't know the true Weegee fad, as started by LinkMahRoi (who was once TheMarioBrother). It all started when TheMarioBrother wanted a true brother to Weegee. So he created Malleo. Then, a lot of people started to make their own creations, based off of art/sprites of bad/pirated games. That sprung up "weegees" like Sawneek, Linkzzz (who is worthy because the movie he starred in was supposed to be a serious fan-movie, and then it turned into a lulz fest.), and even Gazen Vahwes who was based off of that horrible Friday the 13th game for the NES. Then came Fortran, Boozuh, Boozur, and Yushee, again by TheMarioBrother and the rest of the cast from Mario is Missing Deluxe edition. But there also came horrible photoshops of Weegee into other characters, and... you guessed it, RECOLORS OF WEEGEEES! TheMarioBrother then set parameters of good Weegees for the fad. Stuper Bowsa, TheMarioBrother's Super Mario Brothers Hack, soon got involved with the fad, and then popped out Link Mah Boi (TheMarioBrother's version of Link) and Captain Lou Albano (a guy who once voiced Mario. AKA that guy who says "DO THE MARIO!"), but before the fad went into full circle. Also in the fad came Ragamiicho, Fortran's brother from Super Mario World Brothers, and Tode, based off that Toad face from Mario is Missing.

LinkMahRoi is only ticked at the fact that's there's a bunch of Fakegees, and recolors of Weegees.

Which brings us to this:

You fail at internet phenomenon.

Weegee was created 8/11/2007 by the LUEser MonkeyInCloset and popularized by 4chan

It started that way, and then got popularized by TheMarioBrother. I just told one part of the story. You just told another.

Re: Weegee Fad: Should it end prematurely?

Fake motivators are OK, but lolcats, weegee, rickrolling and ALMOST EVERY MEME FROM 4CHAN should be terminated.

Like someone said, Weegee was once an unfunny fad, but now, he's not stale thanks to TheMarioBrother (now known as LinkMahRoi) and Weegee would've been stale if it weren't for Malleo, Fortran and Yushee (and maybe Ragamiicho)

Re: Weegee Fad: Should it end prematurely?

rickrolling - Funny the very first time, then it ended up being in every video on youtube.
lolcats - 1/2 the time, it's actually funny. The other half is just annoying.
fake motivators - YES.
weegee - Get out, plz.

I do too. Rickrolling is stupid and really scares me. Thats the reason I never have my sound on. LOL I can tell if people are going to scare you sometimes because they say in the description "Awesomest sound EVA!" or "Be sure to turn your volume up all the way". But seriously, GET A LIFE PEOPLE!


Back. For now. Maybe.

Yeah, some memes are funny, but they all get annoying. And I don't think we should mention 4chan on a childrens site...>_>;
