"Did you know the Arrow in the knee" meme has taken

Post » Mon Jun 18, 2012 2:37 am

About 2 weeks after Skyrim's release this meme exploded all over the internet. Every other comment on youtube has to do with taking an arrow to the knee or the occasional creative mind saying "i took a knee to the arrow" or some spinoff of it. It's absoluetly horrible. This meme has butt [censored] the minecraft forums and made youtube it's [censored]. And I come to the Skyrim forums and I haven't seen a single arrow knee comment. I applaud you.

I used to talk about taking arrows to the knee on networking sites, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

Should have been here a week or two ago.

Now leave and take you stupid meme with you. (Or stay, but leave the meme at home.)

That's mainly because the Black Plague that is known as "the arrow in the knee" has moved on and out of this website to cause pestilence in others.

It's lingering effects still remains though.

I know it has jumped the shark, because my senior citizen mother called me 3 days ago and asked me what it was. I told it was referring to an assassination attempt on a Kardashian. She's still doing google searches.

I'm glad it's dying down in this region of the internet, it's way overused. Still not as funny as "Stop right there, criminal scum!".

Merged? Yes.... Deleted? Only when being directed towards a thread with the same topic. Such is the way of how this particular board operates.

Frankly I don't mind it, except when a user of that meme completely reaches just to get a laugh from someone. Recently, instead of laughs, they're mostly getting chirping crickets.

That meme is already a has-been. Those still using it are so far left behind it's not even fun. It's dead. Luckily.

This was never a good or funny quote to begin with, in other words, perfect for making a meme out of.
