The Star Wars Kid had a pretty bad time being a meme apparently. I was initially tempted to think he should've gotten over it and appreciated being a meme, but then I remembered it was pretty early internet culture, and I imagine it definitely made you more of a loser at school bad then. Lots of bullying and whatnot.
