- toyg 3y agoWould make for a nice webservice, like those Pokemon/StarWars/etc apis. Ironically, those quotes will likely survive a lot of more modern content. Even viral stuff, these days, will disappear incredibly quickly - bat an eyelid and the imgur link is broken, the twitter post is paywalled, the reddit thread is taken down... And any private service like Discord or Slack will happily burn everything after a few months. "The internet does not forget" is such a massive lie.
