Default Internet Fads: The Best and The Worst

I was trying to remember the other day; "What were the big internet fads that a lot of people know about?" and I could only come up with three or four.
I think it would be fun to remember the good times, the bad times, and the old times (really old fads); from Bananafone to All Your Base.

Any takers?

Uh, Mal...

That thread recently shows that WSC wasn't really a fad after all. Apparently they're still actively whooping and sexing. And I dunno about the rest of us, but I, personally, am a huge supporter/member of the Red Army of Chardish. Of course, I still want the g-bin war to happen so we can own everybody. I don't see why it can't happen, really....

Fad: Anything by Group X that has a flash made for it.
