A a short lived boring show heralded by hot topic goths everywhere as Nickelodeons "last hope" or the last great Nick show. Invader Zim is more of an icon for it's ironic fanaticism by hot topic goths buying up the merchandise more than they ever watched the show. Invader Zim wasn't cutting edge or had any real unique factors despite what it's fanbase says.
They blame Sponge Bob for it's demise, not realizing that Sponge Bob was a success even 2 years before Invader Zim aired, and the fact that many other Nicktoons survived the reign of Sponge Bob such as Chalk Zone, Jenny Teenage Robot, Fairly Odd Parents(which is actually the reason Invader Zim failed) and Jimmy Neutron, all shows that had good long runs.
Sponge Bob was actually Nick's last savior since they could probably run Sponge Bob all day and still bring in higher ratings than their whole current lineup.

Invader Zim is more popular for it's ironic consumerism by "non-conformist" goth kids, rather than the viwership its self.

Get the Invader Zim mug.A dead website, Facebook ate it's lunch.
Myspace launched in 2003, and got it's surge of popularity around 2005. It was good at first, but had it's problems, easy to hack, lack of care by the ones who ran it, asshole Myspace gangsters and scene kids galore.
Myspace popularity started to wane around 2007, as Facebook's popularity started to rise. Since Facebook was cleaner, didn't allow modification of it's profile pages, had the status updates, and generally kept out the annoying attention grabbing and the asshole antic(for a while).
Now days Myspace has dropped to around 30 something in the Alexa ranks, while Facebook is number 2 in the Alexa rank.
Myspace's plague of problems, and the drama that began to form around it can be said to have contributed to Myspace's fall. But their lack of care for updating anything useful on the site was a big problem, they neglected the Myspace Group pages, never fixed any major bugs or loopholes that allowed for hackers, and never responded quite well to help for users.
Thus their fall happened. Only people on there now are late people, scene kids, and maybe the Myspace gangstas.

Myspace was once a great website, but has now fallen to the feet of Facebook, due to Myspace's own incompetence.

Get the Myspace mug.Probably one of the best blogs on the internet, because it's a bunch of hipster hating hipsters, and they're cool because they can take a little joke about themselves,
Made by Carles, but no one really knows who Carles is, a girl or a guy, old or young, etc. We don't know.

Get the Hipster Runoff mug.A person who's an asshole,dickhead, or douche but is still pretty lovable because they aren't an asshole to the full extent nor a that one relentless shithead who's always giving you a hard time. A lot of sarcastic people are lovable asshole.
Can be a friend and an asshole at the same time.

Get the Lovable Asshole mug.A tacky overpriced fashion by some guy named Nigo in Japan. Bape caught on around the mid 2000s around 2005-2006 in America mainly because it was spearheaded and shown off by guys like Lil Wayne, Pharrell and the whole Hyphy movement. Bape also spawned a fashion that's dead now thankfully and spawned a many imitators using the overdone design atheistic as Bape, on hoodies, shirts, and other shit and sold for less than Bape, to people who couldn't afford it or simply lived in cities with no stores that sold it(almost every American city that's not L.A. or New-York).
Bape further proves that if you slap rarity, a high price, and put the only stores that sell it in famous cities know for status(New-York, Los Angeles, Tokyo) that you can get a few status obsessed assholes with the money to blow to buy something that's just ugly, like most clothing items that cost money, just overdone with a label on every inch of the clothing.
Bape is only supported now by rich hypebeast who want to be urban in the suburbs. Even then, you may find it rare to find a hypebeast who still wants Bape.

Get the Bape mug.Geek Chic is a recent (retarded) trend that has popped up everywhere. First starting with hipsters, but like everything hipsters do, it has gone mainstream. Everyone thinks they're a geek now because the have a Facebook or own a high tech phone. Geek Chic has nothing to to with actual geeks, seeing as real geeks could care less about fashion and a lot of them think it's a vapid hobby.
Geek Chic within it's self is an oxymoron and ironic twist of events by people who are generally not geeks, attractive men and women who want to act like geeks but don't actually have the passion for geeky hobbies or the intellect. Real geeks got picked on, and were proud to call themselves geeks because they could construct their own PCs or were very good at math or something, not because they spend massive abouts of times on Xbox play Call Of Duty or in some consumer electronic like an iPod or iPhone. Real geeks consider iPods and iPhones basic shit.

Kate is the most popular hottest chick in school yet she fakes like she's a geek in Geek Chic. Knows only basic stuff about tech, and is only an average student.
Many celebrities nowadays dress in Geek Chic because it's the hottest new trend, and are not really geeks.

Get the Geek Chic mug.Microsoft's foray into the PMP(personal media player) market, and a rival to Apple's iPod. The Zune was released in 2006, had a bigger screen than the iPod's of the time, was capable of playing FM radio, and played more music formats than the iPod.
Though at the time it was more advance than the best iPod at the time when it was released, the Zune failed to catch on due to bulky design, software(that was bad at first) and also the it wasn't that much better than the iPod. Apple also announced and released the iPhone and iPod Touch withing a year of Zune's time on the market, which also could have had an effect on Zune's sales and popularity.
In 2009 Microsoft released the Zune HD, which at the time had a clearer screen than the iPod Touch, and a way more sleek design, but lacked browser and app capabilities like the iPod Touch. The Zune HD has also had a bad time on the market.
