Something is on fire
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Something is on fire is a common tactic employed by unfunny IRC users, saying "brb <insert object> is on fire!!!!" in an attempt to generate lulz. Rather than owning up and admitting their horrible sense of humor when called out on it, the user will continue to assert that something is, in fact, on fire.
Despite the serious lack of lulz in this old meme, "Something is on fire" jokes keep showing up on Bash.org, a site well known for its unfunny IRC quotes.
Example
- <penispump> brb cat is on fire
- <vaginarooter> you aren't funny.
- <penispump> no srsly!!!1
- <vaginarooter> if you have the time to tell us, pictures plz.
- <randombystander> pwned
