Cute, but I'd be surprised if that was a real sign at any point in time.

The McDonald's at Yass is actually open 24 hours, and I'm pretty sure that has been the case for at least 20 years or so when I last visited.

I lived near this sign and passed it a dozen times, they only took it down in the last few years. It was pretty infamous, even before it hit the internet.

That meme is old as fuck. I legitimately burned a cd of "funny pictures" with this on it 25 years ago for a friend in highschool because we both had dialup and sharing pictures was just too cumbersome.

A CD of "funny pictures"? Even with ancient tech, that must have been a crazy number of pictures, funny or otherwise.

I'm not doubting your claim, I'm just impressed by your commitment. I also had a huge amount of "funny pictures" and a dodgy Internet connection, but I didn't have any friends, so I setup DDNS to host pictures that no one but I would ever see.

I leave you with this funny picture: https://xkcd.com/512/

edit: I forgot, before I used DDNS, I put many of my pictures on an Angelfire account used by my friend's StarCraft clan. At the time I didn't realize Angelfire was free, at least at that tier, and was unable to convince my parents to pay for one. Even with our piddly 28.8 connection, it was worth it. This was, I think, the last image I uploaded there (sorry about the reddit link):

edit 2: At least for me, the reddit link didn't work. Here's another version of the same picture:

Yeah, I used to just accumulate every meme I could at LANs back before people called them memes. I think at the time Id just upgraded to an 8 Gig hdd.

I had memes about Windows 95.

Back when the word 'macro' was still a thing....

Nice! Not to one-up (or one down) you or anything, but my HDD was 6.4GB. Last time I tested that drive (which was admittedly a few years ago), it even still worked. It was a Quantum drive, a brand I've otherwise not heard of, but one which was apparently notable enough to to get its own Wikipedia page.
