Internet memes you discovered really, REALLY late?
Me? The Hampster Dance. My in-laws sent our little son a card that plays some of the dance version when you open it up. Now, of course, it's stuck in my head all the time. In doing a bit of research, I discovered this particular meme is from 1998. Yes, folks, I just discovered a 10-year-old internet phenomenon.

Who knew Roger "King Of The Road" Miller could be so entertaining when played at a high rate of speed?

I seriously had no idea what this was until two years ago.

3. Don't feel bad - I am completely ignorant of both Hampster Dance and Dancing Baby
I have only the vaguest notion what a rickroll is. I guess these things don't show up a lot on the kinds of sites (*cough* porn *cough*) that I usually frequent...
