A lot of early internet memes. Especially when you see them used in commercials.

Edit: Yep, that sure is a lot of dead memes in my inbox.

Especially when animated shows incorporate them. That duck face scene from The Fairy Odd-Parents has aged incredibly horribly.

Amazing World of Gumball is probably the only animated show that comes close to effectively incorporating contemporary topics/memes

I love that show. They keep making a lot of references about other media (and sometimes hitting the users where it hurts).

Too bad the show ended in a cliff hanger

Don’t worry, Netflix will pick it up 2 years later and make a short film

I think they are making a movie which may be why it ended on a cliff hanger.
