A tram worker told me that joke a few months ago: Why did the 7 dwarfs only take 1 hobbit? ^To make a hobyte out of him^
Or smth like that. I forgot it honestly
Ah yes there was a whole series of those. Very distinguished.
Jesus: "Sure, I guess 🤷🏻"
Maybe it wasn't on purpose, but it's nice that it's in Roman numerals for him.
I feel like this was a Father Ted gag but there's a good chance I just manufactured this memory.
I don't remember that but it does feel right.
Ikr? Very right.
It's meme'in time!
Not really a meme but I lost my shit when I first saw this
It was at that moment…..
Hopefully they were both okay. They might be, TBH, dogs seem to love that stuff.
Seriously, no harm intended for doggies
They passed on...
I don't think it was then, but it's been many years now. 😁
Do a BARREL ROLL!
Lol that one is an absolute classic.
Fuuuu— 😱
The oldest meme on my phone from 2019
Oh no! Not STEVEN! 😱
Famine is busy.
Some people advocate to spay and neuter your pets, I have other ways to help control the pet population.
Oh man, I haven't seen that one in ages. I laughed my ass off the first time I found it.
Finally, one that's truly ancient.
How are you now.
Man, I miss watching Letterkenny for the first time. It was a great time.
Meme from 2021 during COVID
It's ironic because the government-trusting sheeple kept dying from spike protein turbo cancers.
Oh really? Got a source for that?
Oh, they're referring to the vaccine. I thought the meant the many recalled foods.
No I'm pretty sure they're one of those anti vaxxer dumbasses.
Not that old, april 2025, I got a new phone around that time
"Prove you are human by wasting more time on this shit than a robot ever would"
Unironically. HTTP with micropayments is looking less dumb than it probably sounded at the time. At least that would help keep whatever hacker site up, instead of being a pure waste to everyone.
A 2011 webcomic
Nedroid Picture Diary
This has been sitting around since 2013.
That's metal as FUCK, though! 🤘🏼😁🤘🏼
Man Im glad I know that this is a thing so if I ever see it irl I wont immediately check myself into an insane asylum
That comment on the bottom 😂
Perfection
That's amazing. Never ever delete it!
Still a better love story than Twilight
"It's an old meme, but it checks out."
I mean, OP did ask for old memes. One like this absolutely qualifies.

This is the oldest screenshot of a meme I have on my phone. I probably have many memes that were made before this chronologically that I screenshotted at a later date, but I do not care enough to scroll through them all and find out
That's high octane nightmare fuel right there!
I wonder how many of those five doctors know how to spell diarrhea 🤔
You might want to look over the edge of your plate into the Oxford dictionary and realise that for the language that you speak there are multiple spelling conventions
from 2021, I thought I had older but I must have purged.
That Venn diagram is honestly a work of art, holy f— sh—.
Got some real Duckman vibes from this one.
This gif awakens something in me
There is a video upload limit so i can’t post all_your_base.swf, but it seems to like Afro Ninja
People claim that "youth nowadays have some terrible brainrot". Let me present you... the brainrot of 2006! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qItugh-fFgg
THROWBACK, I laughed so hard and long at this in my early teens. Looped it dozens of times until my sides hurt. Good times.
I think this is the oldest meme in the comments
"Milhouse being not a meme" being a meme NOT a meme...
Sheesh, all you young whippersnappers are really dating yourself.
Here's mine:
Also, let's replace "phone" with "device", mmkay?
edit: whoa, that's an updated version. I remember it saying CDs.
BTW there's some interesting variations:
Who you calling young? I remember when this one was still fresh!
This one no longer holds up, with all the furries everywhere running a lot of the IT.
And boy oh boy, was it a boy!
Love this one! Made me literally laugh out loud to the point where I startled my cat 😂
Also this one is cropped and has a weird white balance or something 🫠
Idk if the first one counts so have two.
Cute because bunnies and stoned 🐰🍃
Lol I miss this style of meme.
Timely as we're getting into chilly weather up here and I live with teenagers. Though my kids wouldn't be caught dead in a winter hat.
That's a pretty plump ass for such dinky legs, ngl.

I did too, of course, but could you explain for those who didn't? <.<
Of course, it's a play on the Mean Girls meme "Get in loser, we're going shopping"
Pictured are two characters from the mid-nineties series Babylon 5, both of whom risked their lives and made personal sacrifices multiple times in order to defeat the primary antagonist, "The Shadows". Central in that fight is "The One", prophesied by the same species as the bald boneheaded person in the picture
The Rangers have the motto: "We live for the one, we die for the one"
Goddammit that's fantastic. I completely forgot that bit. And both are or become rangers (spoilers for a 30+ year old show)
Be careful it's an antique...
Do it right, now.
Usually if something is going to shit I mutter "it's happening dot gif" under my breath and no-one gets it.
This image gave me an aneurysm
Tbf, Venus deserves its own special ranking for being so extra about being inhospitable to anything resembling organic life 😄
Except if you want to live in a high-altitude balloon. Then it's A-tier. At least of options shown.
That's unironically true, and could be presented exactly that way in a textbook. Should it really count as a meme?
I'd argue a counterpoint: Miata
I can hear this picture.
Fkin lol
It's done double duty!
So nice you used it twice!
Obrigado, burrinho.
All these comments could have been individual posts. Such wastefulness. Reconsider, recycle, repost!
¿Por que no los dos? 🤷🏻
Aw, go on
I see what you did there 😉
Edit: It's literally one of the oldest memes..
This one is so old I didn't know how to save a picture without taking a screenshot of it o.o
Clearly says "15 hours ago" 😛
OCaml: 🤔 → 😍
And this one
i love it when a meme comes together
This technically counts as a meme. July 2008.
Talk about prescient...
I'm not actually sure what the oldest meme on my phone is. But I guess this is a pretty good candidate:
You guys aren't going old enough, this will have been taking up storage space for ten years as of next May
Christ, cars is 10 years old?
Cars just recently turned 20 years old
I was in 4th grade when that movie came out...
Look, I'm young, ok?
Twitter after Musk remade it in his own image
Do you have a warrant?

Aww, look at that horrifying insect monstrosity! He's eepy! 🥰😄
People save memes on their phones?
You don't?
No. Why?
Because you're the exception here and I wanted to ask a question I knew the answer to like you did 🤷🏻
Not the OP, but I don't have any memes on my phone because I don't normally use it to look at memes.
Now on my computer I've got stuff saved from well before they were even called memes.
they bring me joy when I look at them, it's nice to laugh again
Do private memes count? This is one of my kids. We've used it a lot in our private family chats over the years. I formally release it into the wild.
Crappy crop so your family doesn't get blinded by that sun-looking artifact behind you
We also have a set of family stickers/memes 😂
I've been meaning to do this actually. Thanks. I've shared it.
CrackerMilk
Here's mine. Not sure if meme.
Mine is this classic Norm joke, i had the video clip downloaded but to save some fediverse diskspace and bandwidth i'll link it instead
Well, that's a relief!
Oldie
Why would I save a meme to my phone?
Why would someone do a totally reasonable and normal thing?
Posting anything other than a short sentence from a phone is unreasonable. It's for emergencies, shitposting can wait till I get to the PC.
Obviously, a lot of people don't roll that way, but it seems like they kind of want to even if they don't.
Why not?
Waste of storage space.
What is storage for then
Apps, temp storage for photos/video and for caching shows/music streams.
Ah, but you see you have to buy a new phone! New and shiny phone! To save your life!
Nah, I'm gonna keep that one until a critical functionality breaks. Also finding a cheap new phone with a 15cm screen or smaller is a pain.
What movie is this? Seems interesting.
Not sure which one, but it's from The Samurai Trilogy.
Thank you! 🙏
There a some old memes that were very popular that would get one banned today.
This is in poor taste because the girls did not order drone strikes. Also it has a very boomer/racist stench. I encourage you to try again.
