Strangle

== History ==
Strangle had its start in the Council when Meme Lord watched it for the first time in 2017. The Booper was the only other memeber to have seen it at the time, and it wasn't until February 8, 2018, when it would be mentioned in the Council for the first time by Meme Lord. The Booper and Meme Lord posted Strangle memes, but nobody would get them as still nobody else had seen it yet, so it wasn't discussed often. Meme Lord finally convinced Mike Kachowski to watch the series at the beginning of December that year, and later Mike Kachowski and Meme Lord successfully convinced Sly Frog Fry to watch Strangle using the funny site on 12/4/2018. Grumpy Cat the Elf also joined the Strangle gang when he started watching in October 2019.
Meme Lord eventually convinced The Snazzmaster to start Strangle on 8/13/2021, and it was on this same day where the Meme Council joke of Snazz not thinking the Strangle soundtrack is great would originate. The greatest hurdle yet, however, would be convincing Tactician to start the series. It took Meme Lord over a year of telling Tactician to watch Strangle until he actually started the show. Meme Lord first asked him on 5/7/2021, when he was still at Abington, and it wasn't until 9/23/2022 that Tactician would follow through. 
Strangle would earn its "Strangle" nickname on 8/15/2021 by The Snazzmaster, during his watch through of Season 1. It was an anagram of Meme Lord's nickname for the show: Stranger Danger. The Snazzmaster also refers to the show as "strang".
== Funny tendrils ==
Strangle has seeped its tendrils(Get it, Strangle reference!) deep into Meme Council culture. While of course theres a plethora of jokes, memes, and several spoiler-tag-ridden book-length conversations between Mike Kachowski and Meme Lord theorizing about the series, Strangle is referenced in Garphic Phone, Midnight Monday Garf's, GMOD, and even has some sound effects and music in the MegaMeme Pack. Meme Lord also has a strange (hehe) trend of posting the sound for the clock from Strangle every time he spots a grandfather clock in any media he's watching. Its totally funny and original!
Strangle also holds the responsibility for being the host of the Jumbler memes, as well as the soap joke; the clip of Will Byers screeching "HE'S LYING" repeatedly has been used countless times in the Council as a response to the soap joke. Additionally, of course, nissan hopper in itself is just a Strangle reference.
Strangle is also, strangely, (see what i did there) responsible for the reformatting of Bee movie emoji and setting the course for Memeskipper, thanks to Sly Frog Fry's opinion on Max's attractiveness in the series.
Strangle remains as one of the most popular live-action shows in the Meme Council, and thus a portion of memebers have agreed to do the 'no funny spoil' strat for Season 5, meaning an anti-spoiler extension will be used, as well as a promise to not watch the trailers or promotional videos. A quest to go in watching the season blind, an episode a day; this is to make the experience as lengthy and enjoyable as possible, as Mike Kachowski and Meme Lord agree that the Season 4 trailer spoiled so much that they were able to accurately predict some of the bigger twists in the series, as well as knowing how most of the most climactic scenes ended.
