The 'Techno Interests Me' meme features an image of a character looking oddly serious or detached, often wearing sunglasses or a suit, with the caption expressing a dry interest in techno music. While its origins are rooted in various early 2010s internet subcultures, it gained massive traction within the electronic dance music community to satirize the 'too cool for school' attitude often found in the underground scene. It is frequently used to mock people who take their music tastes too seriously or to ironically show excitement for something in a very monotone, robotic fashion. Today, it remains a staple for ravers and tech enthusiasts who want to signal their niche interests with a touch of deadpan humor.
