Why do people expect something to be funny forever? Most memes are barely funny in context. Then they are ironically funny, and then they find a place on Facebook where they spend eternity. Why are le rage comic not funny? People loved them. People who post memes now were like 4 when rage comics were cool.
Not sure those are one-to-one. I remember just about every local news station doing the Harlem Shake, but as far as I can tell not one has reenacted the coffin dance (but I’d love to be proven wrong).
Trends in general, be it fashion or hit music or whatever, come and go. It’s human nature. Memes follow the same pattern so they fall out of style/out of heavy use after a while.

Same thing that happened to the Harlem shake
Not sure those are one-to-one. I remember just about every local news station doing the Harlem Shake, but as far as I can tell not one has reenacted the coffin dance (but I’d love to be proven wrong).
It became a Fortnite emote at one point. Or maybe it was PUBG. I forget. But shortly afterwards that was the end of that.
Wasn’t Mr Peanut killed for that and was a huge thing? https://media.tenor.com/RK_kAumki6YAAAAC/dance-coffin.gif
