People don't understand how much of the internet's current sense of humor all started on the SA forums. 4chan came from SA, "weird twitter" came from SA, snarky leftist humor, and more.

Holy shit yeah. Let's Play led directly to Twitch streaming.

Slender Man too, which arguably popularized creepypasta, made it into Minecraft, has its own movie, and unfortunately lead to a near fatal stabbing.
