Hugh Neutron Out of Touch

Hey pops. This thing work?
== Origins ==
It all began on February 10, 2021, when Meme Lord, remembering a video used vehemently during the My Ride From Outer Space wars, tells Mike Kachowski that this new meme video, an AMV of Hugh Neutron dancing to 'Out of Touch' by Hall & Oates was featured today on a meme site the two use. During this time, Meme Lord was actually about halfway through watching Jimmy Neutron for the first time, so that certainly added more fuel to the flames for this meme.
On Februrary 15, 2021, Mike Kachowski posts a video, using the Hugh Neutron video as a bait-and-switch for My Ride From Outer Space. Meme Lord would have his revenge though. From this point forward Meme Lord began hiding Hugh Neutron Out of Touch in every video he posted, often either having a fake thumbnail or a fake beginning all together that would switch to Hugh. This process was identical to the Ride From Outer Space memes, but Meme Lord would continue to take it further than he ever did with Ride. Hugh Neutron Out of Touch is featured in many Midnight Monday Garfs as well.
On February 16, 2021, Meme Lord would enact one of the most complex processes for this joke yet. Creating two fake brand accounts, Nintendo and FitMC, Meme Lord created entirely false videos and channels masquerading as Nintendo and FitMC, with matching profiles and even a completely new fake thumbnail that closely resembled FitMC's style of thumbnail for the FitMc video. Meme Lord would post the links in the Council like usual. The FitMC video was dubbed "PopBob RETURNS to 2B2T?", and the Nintendo video "Nintendo Direct 2.17.2021". Meme Lord posted the FitMC video like usual in the youtube-videos channel, but he really wanted to sell the Nintendo one home, and thus uploaded it and immediatley questioned why it was uploaded a day early. Snazzmaster is quickly hugh'd, but, playing along, acts like its strange that it was uploaded early and tells Tactician and Mike Kachowski that they should check it out. Sure enough, it is revealed that it worked, as well as the FitMC video. Meme Lord even hides a Hugh at the end of his most recent youtube video.
Meme Lord takes things yet to another level, using a siren to play Hugh Neutron Out of Touch at Mike Kachowski's house at around 9:50 PM. Unfortunately Mike Kachowski would only just about hear the music, and did not know what it was until Meme Lord informed him shortly after. 
At this point the joke is full steam ahead and "out of touch" is said constantly, Meme Lord uploading a video to his Youtube channel that is quite simply just the original itself under the false pretense: "I swear I promise this is not Hugh Neutron dancing to "out of touch" by Hall and Oates". It was. By mid February, similarly to (guitar solo), the entire script for the video is posted as if its a copypasta. Meme Lord even makes a copy of one of Mike Kachowski's school presentations and replaces every single slide with the video. 
On 4/11/2021, Meme Lord makes a vocode of the video to Ride From Outer Space and shares it with the Council, and the next day, Meme Lord publishes "Hugh's Paradise", a vocode of the Hugh video to Gangsta's pradise, to his channel. It was here when Meme Lord got an idea.
On April 13, 2021, Meme Lord starts work on a remastered version of the Hugh video. Having to install an entire new editing program in order to get the timing perfect, the project ended up taking 6 hours. Meme Lord got every original clip in the video from the respective Jimmy Neutron episodes, as well as recording new audio for the opening segment. Also replacing the music with an official remastered version of Out of Touch and adding a little extra bass and reverb in Audacity to make it stand out more. Finally, the video was done, and uploaded to Meme Lord's youtube channel. The video would prove to be quite a success overall and got plenty of views, but on June 29, 2021, tragedy struck. The original Hugh Neutron video, which was presumably uploaded by LithiumCactus, was taken down. Thus Meme Lord's remaster was the only version left on youtube. Fortunately, someone archived the OG on the WaybackMachine.
This HD 1080p remaster somewhat replaced the original clip whenever it was used as a meme on the Council. Megamind, however, still used the original. 5 days later, the Snazzmaster would upload his own "remaster" of the remaster, simply putting the Among Us drip theme over the entire video. Meme Lord and Tactician plan in June to someday go into the soundbooth and play Hugh Neutron Out of Touch over the audotorium speakers at Abington Heights High School, but unfortunately the one opportunity that presented itself was foiled by the choir teacher. Tactician finally completed this mission on 6/10/2022, where he played the full video over the loudspeakers in the auditorium, and recorded the event. 
In July, Meme Lord, Sly Frog Fry, and Mike Kachowski plan to surprise Tactician at his play of Freaky Friday, and how else to do it then wearing Hugh Neutron masks? At the end of the play, Meme Lord shoves all the masks into a mtn dew can and gifts it to Tactician, mimicking a bouquet of flowers.
After graduation, the meme would be kept going, Meme Lord putting the video as qr codes all over his college, and even successfully playing it on a jumbotron once. On December 13, 2021, Hugh Neutron Out of Touch would join the ranks of NextBots that Meme Lord created for gmod.
== Legacy ==
Hugh Neutron Out of Touch is without a doubt the most popular bait-and-switch style meme in the Council to date, though it can be argued that Gottems have been around longer. Regardless Meme Lord and Mike Kachowski have not gone to farther reaches over any other joke, and Hugh isn't going anywhere anytime soon. The Hugh video is rarely still used in direct edits, but is instead usually snuck into the end of videos by either Mike Kachowski or Meme Lord as a callback to the meme.
