Post The most cliche'd thing in the 'nets?
OK, so the other day a question nags at me: What is the most cliche'd thing in the history of the internet? Out of curiosity I tried 4chan. Bad idea. Then I remembered where I can find a good place filled with intelligent, rational gentlemen who may be able to sate this curiosity: DRLFF.

So, tl;dr: what do you think is the most cliche'd thing in the history of the internet?

If you press ALT + F4 you'll probably find out what is.

Yeah, maybe it's giving people intentionally bad advice. But that's not really confined to the internet.

Perhaps it's the old System32 trick?
My computer's never been faster.

Finding a picture of Haiti and holding F11?
Visiting a website and holding F5 to do a VERY short term DOS?

Gee, everyone knows what the most cliche'd things on the nets are.
They even made a complete list of 'em, that will probably solve all of your questions about the subject. Here it is.

Most cliche'd? Internet culture. It's so 2000's.

I knew from the start that it was a rick roll. It isn't too hard to guess.

lol has been worn down from it's literal meaning to "this is humorous to some degree", due to how convenient it is to type. Same with other such acronyms.
But I don't know if that could quite fit as a cliche or not...

Maybe I'll make a website about what qualifies as a cliche or not. I could even put .gif animations of fire that marquee on it!
