The older the internet gets, the more it's like a city that keeps building on top of its own ruins. What's is your favorite bit of internet archeology if memes are like artifacts and relics?

Pretty sure this is actually older than Keyboard Cat.

Edit:

Ok so, this whargarbl is 2008, technically, keyboard cat was first uploaded in 2007, but it didn't "become a meme" untill somebody else used the clip at the end of another video, for comical effect, in 2009.

    I'd forgotten about that brief period where we all put giant black frames around all our memes. Feels classier. It was hell on the printer ink though.
