Turboweasle: everyone's favorite speedy rodent

Most of us probably know what a meme is, but for those of us who don't, look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_meme

tl;dr:  Something (usually something funny) that is said over and over again until it becomes commonplace and easily recognizable by a group of people.

As the community gets larger and larger, I think we ought to begin chronicling the moments that made this group of fruits, douches, nerds, and old geezers great.  Everyone is encouraged to join in, as I can't remember everything deserving of being remembered in this community.  Links are much appreciated, and if the instance occurred on GF or another site that systematically cleans out old topics, copypasta would be excellent.

I'll try to keep this updated as new suggestions are brought forth, but mods, feel free to edit my post if I go on a spree of inactivity and new stuff arrives.

Anyway, to start off this list of memes and such, I can think of no other way than to post, at the head of the list, the infamous NL Link topic.  Vets know exactly what I'm talking about; newbs, feel free to educate yourselves-- you won't regret it.

Also, commentary on some of these events is encouraged greatly.  However, I must ask, if you're going to write of comment, try to make it grammatically correct to the best of your ability.  I want this topic to be the home of everything that is great in this community.  Thanks.

Now, the list:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=942015&topic=43312016

This is the legendary topic itself.  NL Link's lack of American innuendo knowledge created a scene of hilarity for everyone watching.  5/25/08, 11:00:44 PM.  Nevar forget.

This one should definitely be copypasta.  I award five Internets to whomever does so for me, as I am a lazy sack of poo.

Here's a classic WT vs. everyone else thread:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=942015&topic=45604418

Here we have a gem of a post from Kechua, whose lack of English grammar knowledge spawned the meme "LAG SHIELD TO THE LAG SHIELD" (courtesy of Warmarine):

http://wiiunite.smfforfree3.com/index.php/topic,3823.msg43168.html#msg43168

Zzz shows us all how important he is, again (courtesy of Ressy):

http://wiiunite.smfforfree3.com/index.php/topic,8300.msg133101.html#msg133101






If someone could find the original "ggs nice springy" topic, a link will warrant 2 Internets.  Each noodlegirl topic will receive 1 Internet apiece, and some of the good clan-war flame wars will be awarded 1 Internet each as well.  Happy hunting, and get posting.  This is the history of the one of the most successful Wii communities out there-- don't you want to take part in it?  Also, the original "This game is died" topic from the famous Wii gamer Zzz will get 10 Internets.

I've decided to keep tabs of who gives the links and award them Internets.  The list is below.

1/6/10-Warmarine now has 1 Internet total
1/8/10- Ress has 1 Internet total

Damn, I've been planning a WU "history treasure hunt" for a while, but haven't had time on a computure to do so. I was gping to give away wii points to a winner too. Tongue

But anyways, turbs, this is fantastic. Especially since lately I've been scolding the newer members on doing their "WU history homework" by searching older threads/topics.
I can't do links, so would a mention of some epic ones suffice? 

Some particular ones would be you and I8's 1000 or so post thread about the 1v1.
Another would be where AOW drew Dreamr and NDS gramatically pwnt some dudes with all seriousness.
I know a few people made a couple topics in Ress and my honor to highlight our spats, and a few were sent to the backdraft. Cheesy The list can go on.

I just read it too. I laughed when Zzz said "We invented the way the new guys play. There is nothing they can do that we havent seen before." Lol. That was the best part.

I have a question. There is a certain individual that leaves his stupidity spread all around the forum and not in a specific thread. A little here, a little there... as a result all the flaming is spread about. Is there a certain way you want everything catalogued? Like, "he said this here," "this guy responded like so over there," and so on.

Eh, I'm not partial to any particular format.  As long as it's understandable, it'll work fine.
