List of Klingon Phrases

Scatman

**Scatman** is a hit 1994 Eurodance song by singer Scatman John, who is best known for having a severe stutter which he developed as soon as he learned to speak. Many of his songs incoporated said stutter which was a big contributor to their success.

Online, the song became an Internet meme as well as one of the first fads on YTMND in late April 2004. Most Scatman sites are remixes or, on rare occasions, make use of the sequel song "Scatman's World".

Cascadese

The **Cascadese language** is an East Germanic Fictional Language used in the Cascadian region of the Pacific Northwest. In it’s fictional context, it is the native language of the Cascadians, the inhabitants Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia. It was created by Brood X, an author of the ZPI website. This language is based off of Gothic but has influence from other Germanic Languages like German and Icelandic because Gothic doesn't have much to work with.
1920s

The **1920s** fad consists usually of a video modified to sepia tone with scratchy lines, dust, and noise added to create the effect to look like aged silent films. Often editing will be topped off with handlebar moustaches, top hats, and monocles to further reflect the styles of the 1920's. Videos involving speech will insert cliché dialogue boxes to simulate silent films. On occasion, an edited still image will be substituted in place of a video. Musical accompaniment is usually a repeating loop from "Happy Days are Here Again" although any stylized music hearkening to the *Roaring Twenties* is acceptable. Other musical selections associated with this fad have been excerpts from the *Cinderella Man - Cheer Up, Smile, Nertz* soundtrack or the *Battlefield 1942* theme.

Because of the nature of this fad, whereas a user takes existing material and transforms it to a stylized format, it is quite often combined with other fads.

Eat Your Soul

The **...Will eat your soul** fad consists of YTMNDs from other fads remade with distorted music and pictures in order to make them look as if they were demons or zombies. The original YTMND was made by alholm2000 on January 26, 2006 and first included Moskau. According to alholm2000, the soundtrack consists of "three versions of the same audio played simultaneously in a chord" using Audacity. When asked exactly how he achieved this, he replied:

> "...I imported the audio into audacity three times, raised the pitch of one of them, lowered the pitch of one of them, and kept one the way it started..."
>
>

The domains often have "**weys**" in them, short for "Will Eat Your Soul". In newer sites of this kind, effects used to "zombify" characters include zooming the camera into their eyes quickly, inverting the picture's colors, and using the song "Ironside" by Quincy Jones (popularized in the Kill Bill movie series). Older ones use Photoshop filters (usually Glowing Edges, although the first used Neon Glow) and distort the sound.

CRAPTMND

**CRAPTMND** is a 4th Corner fad established in late 2006 using intentionally bad MSPaint versions of existing YTMNDs. While many sites have been created, none have achieved significant popularity, and they are for the most part considered a rip off of the Age 9 fad. Some contain an even simpler drawing with messed up sound files of the YTMND fad sites of which they are based upon, some contain audio of the site creator, and some use a text to speech program.

CRAPTMND is also incredibly similar to the "DYTMND" failed forced fad by JoshCube, the notorious user who had been banned for spamming YTMND with those very sites. However, JoshCube's DYTMNDs were not based on fad sites, and were for the most part the same 3 sites posted over and over again. Nevertheless, the CRAPTMNDs are to some extent original as they differ thematically from the Age 9 fads and content wise from DYTMND. While the Age 9 YTMNDs aim at presenting various YTMND fads as seen through the eyes of a 9 year old child, the CRAPTMNDs aim at creating versions of fads emulating a low visual and auditory quality by using the simple paint and sound tool mentioned above. As an alternate universe, CRAPTMND proposes an alternate reality in which YTMND would be based on the simple visual and auditory tools mentioned above. In that perspective, many CRAPTMNDs, while simpler than Age 9, do have a certain artistic value on par with PTKFGS, YESYES, and other alternate universes.

Meth

**The meth fad** began in February 2006 when the user **dannico** created the site "I did meth and all I got was this lousy haircut (educational)". As the site stated, it was meant to be used for educational purposes. The images were taken from the Partnership for a Drug-Free America page showing how taking meth affects people's appearance after a few months. The common format of these sites is to have 2 pictures. On the left would be the original picture and on the right would be the aftermath of taking meth. The page also had a watermark from a county police as the pictures were originally taken there.

A problem with the fad is that it was overused for certain people, mainly Darth Vader and Star Wars.

The song accompanying these sites is "Overdose" by Tomcraft.

Noooooo!

**No** is an interjection in the English language used to express doubt, refusal, or disbelief.

It became a YTMND fad following its dramatic use in *Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith*. In the movie, Darth Vader, having just been encased in his famous armor, shares the following dialogue with Emperor Palpatine:

**Palpatine:** Lord Vader...can you hear me?
**Vader:** Yes, master. Where is Padme?  Is she safe? Is she all right?
**Palpatine:** It seems, in your anger, you killed her.
**Vader:** I...I couldn't have! She was alive! I felt it! **NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!**

Redily created darthno.ytmnd.com on May 20, 2005 using a leaked print of the movie for the picture and sound. Because Vader's "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" was generally panned by moviegoers, it was widely circulated on the internet and has become one of the most popular sites on YTMND.com. As of July 2006, DarthNo has an average rating of 4.14, over 800,000 all-time views, and a spot on the YTMND Hall of Fame. Despite its popularity, only one user has sponsored it: Nai255 for $23.97.

The NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! fad is a series of YTMNDs depicting Vader using his infamous line in all manner of situations, usually those that would not warrant such an outburst. Vader on Wheel of Fortune has also been inducted into the Hall of Fame, and NOOOller Coaster was plugged by Max in an interview with Wired Magazine.

Space Ghost is also occasionally used in place of Darth Vader, with a sound clip of him shouting the same thing (and stopping to catch his breath) in the episode "BooBooKitty" from *Space Ghost Coast to Coast*. In the episode, Space Ghost, during his interview with David Lander, shares the following dialogue with Moltar:

**Moltar:** Hey, Space Ghost, look out the window.
**Space Ghost:** Well, BooBooKitty! Come crawlin' back to Daddy, huh?
**Moltar:** Isn't she drifting precariously close to your big pin?
**Space Ghost:** *(gasps)* **NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO**
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... ***(takes a breath)*** NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

How Many Megs of Ram, Carmine?

**How Many Megs of Ram, Carmine?** is a fad based on an infomercial for the Apple Performa computer. The original YTMND site, created by flipu4reel in November 2007, was an excerpt of the informercial, which features the fictional Martinetti family and their experiences with a Performa computer. In the site, an elderly woman named Rose comes to the door of the Martinettis' home, asking "Is Carmine in?". Carmine, the grandfather of the family, met Rose on the Opera Lovers forum while on the Apple Performa and begins to show the Performa to Rose. Rose asks, "How many megs of ram, Carmine?", in which Carmine exclaims, "Eight!" (almost always typed as ATE due to the way Carmine pronounces the number).

## External links

Byrd

The **Byrd** fad, also known as the **Barbaric** fad, is based on a speech by late Senator and former KKK member Robert Byrd on dog fighting, given in Congress after NFL star Michael Vick was indicted as part of a dogfighting operation. During Byrd's speech, he repeated the word "barbaric", to describe the act of "training these poor creatures to turn themselves into fighting machines." The fad started in July 2007 with a site created by Lemonei, which had a picture of Senator Byrd, audio from a section of his speech, and the text: "let that word resound."

Howard Dean

**Howard Dean** was a 2004 Democratic presidential candidate and current chairman of the DNC. On January 19, 2004, Dean lost the Iowa Caucus to rivals John Kerry and John Edwards. During the post-caucus, he made a speech that very likely ruined his chances at taking the Democratic nomination:

*"Not only are we going to New Hampshire, Tom Harkin, we're going to South Carolina and Oklahoma and Arizona and North Dakota and New Mexico, and we're going to California and Texas and New York … And we're going to South Dakota and Oregon and Washington and Michigan. And then we're going to Washington, D.C., to take back the White House! **Yeaaaaagggggh!!!**"*

A few months later, during the launch of YTMND, the speech was quickly picked up and parodies came up. Early parodies did not require much effort, and just involved putting Dean's popular "whitehouse" and "yeaggh" into various other quotes (like Bananaphone and Stapler).

Later Dean sites after the relaunch of YTMND in 2005 put in much more effort. There were remixes of his quote (e.g., Whitehouse rangers and Whitehouse Busters. Others were parodies of Outkast's "Hey Ya", the most popular one being a remix of the refrain featuring Lou Costello.

Even 2 years after the fad was popular, Dean sites have been popping up along YTMND. Many involving remixes and audio fixes of Dean's popular "yeagh" quote.

His famous 2004 "scream" after polling third in the Iowa caucuses has been widely parodied outside of YTMND as well.

Metal Gear Solid

The ***Metal Gear Solid*** fad is a parody of the death sequences from the popular series of *Metal Gear Solid* video games.

## Origin

In the games, whenever the main protagonist, Snake, dies, a member of his backup team is heard frantically trying to contact him through the Codec (radio) as the Game Over music plays. In the original *Metal Gear Solid*, the most popular death sequence occurred when Otacon radioed the recently deceased Solid Snake and cried out thusly:

*"Snake, what's going on? Snake? SNAAAAAAAAAAKE!?"*

This sequence quickly attained cult status for it's ludicrous melodrama and half-hearted voice acting. However, it became so popular that the sequel (*Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty*) had a similarly scripted death sequence far more often, and every single death sequence in the threequel (*Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater*) contained the now infamous "SNAAAAAAAAAAKE!?".

## Fad

The first YTMND did not feature Otacon calling for Snake, but Luigi calling for Mario:

*"Mario? MAAAAAARIOO!!!!"*

The site became popular for it's time and eventually spawned spin-offs months later featuring other fad characters of 2004 (such as Ugoff, Kirk, etc...). The fad never really became full-blown instantly, but rather, grew at a steady rate, sometimes spawning multiple sites each day. Eventually, in 2005 the *Metal Gear Solid* fad was noticed, and has sometimes made it's way to various fad conglomerates.

*Metal Gear Solid* sites still spawn once in a while, most of them taking in decent ratings.

Esc

**Esc** sites involve an animated .gif image with the idea of the viewer pressing the Escape key to freeze on one frame. The original site, press esc to stop!, posted by typogra in December 2006, used this concept to have viewers test their hand-eye coordination by stopping it on the "WINNER!" frame.

Although this goal is seen in some spin-off sites such as The Rating Game, many new sites used this same concept to instead accomplish viewing one specific message or image in a randomly selected environment such as in Wheel Of Morality. This concept was given new life with the advent of YTMND 2.0 and the option of both a foreground and background image, resulting in frenchbreadpizza's I should Totally (Press Esc. 2.0).

However, the method of pressing the escape key to freeze the .gif image reportedly only works in popular web browsers Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. Mac users running Safari report issues with this sites. One suggested solution is to instead press command+period to stop this image, however this method has not been tested. To restart the YTMND, simply refresh/reload the page.

Raymond

**Raymond** sites feature a GIF of Ray Barone (Ray Romano) from Everybody Loves Raymond, dancing with his hands through his shorts in front of his wife Debra (Patricia Heaton) in a bedroom. The first site with the GIF on record, Starcraft 2 Announced!!!, was made on February 18, 2008 by houseofcards; by the end of the next day, 10 had already been made.

Most Raymond sites feature a title that suggests the viewer will see the first pictures of a new product, a fad site, or some similar joke; instead, the GIF appears—usually tiled—and is set to random music (video game background tunes, etc.). They are, in effect, spammy bait-and-switch pranks.

Since its creation in February 2008, many other GIFs (of Raymond, Frasier, and other sitcoms and videos) have been made by houseofcards and others, and used in similar fashion.

Gay Fuel

**Gay Fuel** is a YTMND that refers to an American energy drink marketed to the gay community. It was created by inkdrinker. inkdrinker states that he originally discovered the image from a previous YTMND created by petercoffin. He recontextualized the YTMND, changing the looping sound file and zooming text into something more easily propagated. His YTMND has garnished much more success and notoriety than petercoffin's version.

*Gay Fuel* has spawned several different copies, and has created a spin-off where notable YTMND characters drink Gay Fuel. Original gay fuel sites were just photoshop meshes and add-ins to other fad, but later sites had effort and compared various "gay people" to the drink.

The song used in the fad is "Tarzan Boy" by Baltimora, and was later used for sites depicting homosexuality (not neccessarily gay fuel).

Eventually, the Gay Fuel fad partially inspired the GAYTMND universe.

List of Na'vi Phrases

As a fully developed Fictional Language, Na’vi has a large number of words and phrases. When translated literally, the words often come out in an odd form of organisation in comparison to English.

## Phrases

#### Greetings

* kaltxì = Hello
* ngaru lu fpom srak = How are you? (Literal: Do you have peace / wellbeing?)
* oel ngati kameie = I see you (Not exactly your usual everyday greeting, but one nonetheless.)

### Common Questions

* Ngari solalew zìsìt apolpxay? = How old are you? (Literal:  As for you, have passed year how many?)
* nga za‘u ftu peseng? = Where do you come from?
* fyape syaw fko ngar? = What are you called? (Literal:  how calls one to you?)

### Specific to Na'vi / Na'vi idioms

* Fwäkì ke fwefwi =  Mantis doesn’t whistle; don’t expect someone to do something that isn’t in their inherent nature.
* taronyut yom smarìl =  The prey eats the hunter; everything goes wrong that can.
Pi

**3.141592653589793...** is a YTMND started in late 2005 that pays tribute to Hard n' Phirm's song **Pi**, where over 190 decimals of numerical pi are performed. The audio for the site isn't taken directly from the song; Instead, the sections of the song that recite the The image for the site is the Pi symbol overlayed with the first 521 digits of the number pi (much more than the 190 in the song).

The symbol **π** refers to number that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to it's diameter. Because the number pi is an irrational number, it can not be exactly represented as a fraction. It follows that when pi represented as a decimal number, the decimal places will never terminate or repeat. Pi is often approximated as 3.14, but the decimals go on infinitely--hence the absurdity of enumerating the number pi verbally.

Spinoffs of this fad often involve mathematical curiosities (irrational numbers or otherwise) with the decimals overlayed onto the symbol (often in green): for example, **e**, **i**, **√2**, and Euler's formula.

As of June 6, 2012, the original YTMND is currently the 29th most favorited, the 17th most voted on, and the 8th most viewed site on YTMND. The views for the original site go up significantly on March fourteenth, aka 3/14, aka Pi Day.

The full version of the song is approximately 3 minutes and 14 seconds in length.

A **Midvoter** is a user who only uses the voting.

## Midvoters

* cubetriangle
* Midvote
* Midvoter
* el-communist-voter
* TheManWithNoFace (originally a downvoter, converted to midvoting after another YTMNDer spammed his inbox and profile. Has now converted back to downvoting, however).

* Downvoter - A YTMND user who only (or mostly) votes 1 star
* Splitvoter - A YTMND user who only (or mostly) votes 1 or 5 stars
IPhone

The **iPhone** is a device developed and sold by Apple, inc. In addition to making telephone calls and playing media (a la the iPod family of products), it can run small programs called "Apps". YTMND sites that follow this fad use an iPhone commercial which demonstrates several Apps along with the repeated phrase, "There's an App for that". The first site of this fad was There's An App For That by ericcondon posted in April 2009.

Calvin and Hobbes

**Calvin and Hobbes** is a comic strip by Bill Watterson. In February 2006, the user Fearless submitted a YTMND for G4's "Attack of the Shows" contest called "This is a Feel Good YTMND". The YTMND displayed the last comic strip ever created in the series, accompanied by the song "Concerning Hobbits" from Lord of the Rings. A few days later, the user ddrfreak created an altered version of the strip, replacing comic bubbles with material used in the "Safety Not Guaranteed" fad. This site initiated the fad. Most of these sites incorporate other fads, with the music choice depending on the fad being used.

Soylent Green is people

*Soylent Green is people* is a popular quote from the 1973 film **Soylent Green.**

During the early days of YTMND, the user Grog created a classic-styled YTMND from the movie. The picture showed Charles Heston looking at pieces of soylent green, yelling his popular catchphrase along with the text "Soylent Green is People." The site became popular and was eventually made as a moderators favorite. It did not really catch on as a fad instantly, but over time, it was referenced and spawned parodies.

Smoothmedia

**smoothmedia** is best known as being the creator of YTMND For Gameboy, YTMND Pianist: NSMB, and most recently, The "Un-Funny" Truth About Scientology YTMNDs.

For the most part smoothmedia is known for making "faggy short films" that appeal to the broad spectrum of YTMND users, and are therefore highly rated. He hasn't really started any fads, but has made significant fad contributions/collaborations.

During the height of YTMND: For Gameboy's popularity, smoothmedia attempted to sell his YTMND making services on Ebay, in response to YTMND implementing more advertisements, thus selling out. Initially bids were realisitic, but after the bids reached $30 users began bidding ridiculous amounts (ie. $99,999,999) and thus the transaction was never made.

smoothmedia coined the term "ROFLBROTHEL" and made an accompaning site ROFLBROTHEL!...LOL!. The term has failed to catch on beyond a few ytmnd users.

smoothmedia often makes YTMNDs making fun of conservative commentator Tucker Carlson, and actor Christopher Walken.

He has a habit of including a colon (:) in the title of his YTMNDs. 23 of his sites contain the colon character.

Holy Crap

The **Holy Crap** fad was first created by Cdawg82191 on April 26, 2006. Upon its creation the site featured a blank screen with only a period on it. The way the text zoomed out to a vanishing point, the period took on the illusion of a meteor with a trail behind it. This effect is only possible on YTMND due to the site's use of 3-D text.

The meteor site initially received high ratings. After users began commenting on the site, a background image of a city was added. It then went through several edits. The initial song used was "Requiem for a Tower", but due to massive complaints about the overuse of the "Fire Spirit" theme, he changed the song to Yasunori Mitsuda's "Lavos' Theme" from the video game *Chrono Trigger* mostly due to gamekid's suggestion. Ironically, the site was originally intended as a joke expected to get no more than a 2 star rating.

YTMNDs of this type often have a variety of different texts, sometimes aligned with the image. Though many incorporate the zooming text into their joke, some ignore the zoom and simply use the text as ASCII representations.

KOENTMND

## What is KOENTMND?

KOENTMND is a fad created in October 2006 based around the eccentric University of Texas professor Dr. Billy V. Koen. His professional site can be found here. KOENTMND sites primarily focus on using sound clips taken from Dr. Koen's inspirational messages. Though the fad was started initially by many UT students, it has since grown in popularity to interest a wide range of YTMNDers. KOENTMND sites have been sponsored and have achieved high ratings, including some top viewed exposure. Users to this day continue to make KOENTMND sites and their popularity is ever growing.

## Making KOENTMND

The users demsthenes and NiteSky have made sites featuring all of the content used in KOENTMNDs so that others could make their own as well: KOENTMND: Construction Set and KOENTMND: Construction Set II respectively. The music usually used for KOENTMND sites is Infected Mushroom's song entitled *Semi Nice*.

## Criticism

KOENTMND started as an inside joke that wasn't really supposed to make sense, until it became popular. Many users have complained that KOENTMND has been hijacked by featured users who killed the fad, sometimes comparing it to NEDM.

Marbella

* It is the 9th song on the "album" called "Aliens, Candies & Booze".
* Sound: It is a very poppy song that is catchy and has melodies that stick out.
* Structure: It is very simple. It has a verse and a pre-chorus, that that takes us to the chorus. Then we go to the explosive bridge riff that is followed by the verse that was at the beginning.
* About: It is about a place called Marbella in morocco. The reason why i wrote about it is because i visited the place in February 2019, but the song is not about my trip.
* Writing: this song was written in Kärsämäki in October 2018. It came together very easily, but the only thing i remeber from the process is coming with the chorus.
* Opinion: This is one of my favorites from this "album". I really like the melodies here. This song was performed activily till the 3rd album and after thats its been performed from time to time.
Dick Cheney

During the weekend of February 11th, 2006, Dick Cheney made headlines in the news when there was a mishap during a hunting trip. While shooting quailes, Cheney accidentally shot his friend Harry Whittington, an attorney from Texas. He was rushed to a hospital where he recovered from his wounds.

Once the news broke out, sites quickly spawned on ytmnd alerting others on the news. However, it wasn't until a site later that day by the user vinwiesel called "Cheney's got a gun" that the fad took off. The site showed animation of Dick Cheney shooting Wittington in a fake video game called "Dick Hunt", a parody of "Duck Hunt". The song that accompanied it was "Janie's Got a Gun" by Aerosmith. In the song, Steven Tyler's voice makes the name "Janie" sound like "Cheney", which in a way makes the purpose of the music similar to the interpretation-based YTMNDs. The site stayed on the top 15 for days and racked up over 400,000 views. The original site was so popular, it was included in the fad conglomerate " YTMND sings in perfect harmony".

After that site, the fad sites started to come. Most of them were parodies of the video games "Duck Hunt" and "Doom". Some sites involved the use of the "indestructible" fad. Others used the Aerosmith song as well as a parody song that popped up a week later. The fad slowly died after the first few weeks.

He was parodized since July 2004, but not regularily enough to be mentioned as a fad, so the fad officially started in February 2006.

Creating an animated gif

Creating an animated gif is not too difficult. There are various programs available, some free and some not.

The most user friendly tool is Adobe Imageready, and this tutorial will cover that. Other great programs are the Flash programs made by Adobe and Macromedia (Adobe now owns Macromedia). Still better is Adobe After Effects, an industry standard special effects program.

## Adobe Imageready

Imageready lets you open quicktime movie files, and save them as animated images. Open your movie file, and resize it in the Image menubar. In the top right pallete, click Optimize, and then under the Options, change the "lossy" slider. The more lossy the image, the smaller the file (but worse the quality). Then, go to File and Save Optimized. It should save as an animated gif. Check to see that the saved file is under 3MB; if not, you'll hve to make it smaller and/or lossier.

## Adobe Photoshop CS3

With Adobe's release of their third Creative Suit software package, Imageready was eliminated and the animation features were brought into Photoshop CS3. If this is the software you are using, simply choose File > Import > Video Frames to Layers. This will bring up a dialogue asking you to specify which specific section of the video you would like to import as well as giving you the option to import every other frame, which produces a smaller, albeit jerkier, clip. Once you select the section of the video to import, Photoshop opens the frames in its Animation window. This interface is very similar to the one found in Imageready. Once you have completed your animation, select File > Save for Web & Devices which brings up the optimization dialogue, again very similar to Imageready.

## Adobe Premiere

Adobe Premiere can export video to animated gif format. When you have the video you want to be put into a gif ready, just click File>Export>Media. This will then open a box, and you need to change the format to Animated Gif. This will then open Adobe Media Encoder and convert the video into Gif. you may want to open the file with Photoshop or a similar program afterwards to make sure the Gif loops correctly.

## GIMP

GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a free software raster graphics editor. It is primarily employed as an image retouching and editing tool and is freely available in versions tailored for most popular operating systems including Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, and GNU/Linux. Opening several images as layers and saving as a gif with animation gives users the ability to make animated gifs cheaply. Gifs can be optimized and scaled down to avoid site-bloat.
Hermione and Conan

"Hermione and Conan" was a very brief fad that sprang up after user tigerman made the original YTMND "Hermione and Conan Raise the Roof" on July 13, 2007, which consisted of a short clip of Emma Watson and Conan O'Brien sarcastically dancing during his interview of her on July 12, 2007 on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. The loop was set to Tube and Berger's "Straight Ahead", already famously associated with Conan O' Brian on YTMND. The fad was born when users began creating sites featuring Watson and O' Brian dancing in other contexts such as at a rave or a disco, each with their own individual accompanying music.

Bingo

A bingo site is an interactive fad started in late July 2006 that requires other users to leave a comment in order to be included in the site. A bingo site will usually be themed (US States, other fads, spots on a map, etc...). A user would post in the user comments area of a spot they wish to claim in that picture. During the day, the site will be updated to show which users claimed that spots. In some cases, a picture may accompany the user. The sites were usually accompanied by *The Chimes of Liberty* as arranged by Edwin Goldman.

The fad lasted a few days before dying out.

Fish biscuit

*Fish biscuit* is a fad started in October 2006 based on a scene from an episode of Lost in which the character Sawyer is being held prisoner in a cage. Sawyer figures out how to work some mechanisms in the cage, holding one lever while pegging one on the other side of the cage with a shoe, which causes a machine to play a song, declare "reward" and most importantly deliver him food—a biscuit shaped like a fish.

One of his imprisoners, Tom, walks up to the cage at that point and says, "Hey, you got yourself a fish biscuit. How'd you do that?" The fad generally incorporates this line, and occasionally some other dialogue, including Sawyer's answer that he had figured out their "gizmo", and Tom's observation that it "only took the bears two hours" to figure out the same thing, and his offer, "bring you some antiseptic later".

The "fish biscuit" in the show appeared to be a large, very hard biscuit in the shape of a fish—seemingly designed for a large animal to eat, but some YTMNDs use a rather disgusting image of an actual whole fish partially wrapped in a pastry.

Seizes Control

The **Seizes Control** fad began in March 2006 with Altron88's Princess Peach Seizes Control, featuring Princess Peach and other elements from the Super Mario Bros. games superimposed over stills from a speech by Adolf Hitler at the Berlin Sportpalast. The original, unaltered images can be seen in an early spinoff, Hitler Seizes Control.

## Fad Structure

Seizes Control YTMNDs typically work by substituting Hitler with either a subject completely unlike him (e.g., Lambchop) or a subject the site's creator wishes to compare to Hitler (Eric Bauman). YTMND characters are sometimes used to illustrate their unstoppable power (Chuck Norris) or their singlemindedness (Milton Waddams).

## Criticism

There has been much criticism regarding the fad. Most people believe that it does not take much effort to whip out a "Seize Control" site, saying that all they have to do is to replace the signs and Hitler's face with the character being used in the fad. As such, it eventually waned into dead fad status.

## Music

The music used in almost all Seizes Control YTMNDs is "Advent: One Winged Angel" by Nobuo Uematsu from the movie *Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children*.

Khan

**Khan** sites feature Captain Kirk's "KHAAAAAAAAN" scream from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. The original site pre-dates YTMND; it was found on the :/contrib page of the original yourethemannowdog.com. However, its popularity carried over, and the scream became a staple of early-era YTMND.

Khan! was the first major fad on YTMND, sparking hundreds upon hundreds of imitators, and setting the precedent for fad or spin-off sites of notable YTMNDs.

Most recently, members of the "Forgot Poland" Army started making "KHANTMND" sites that mix the most popular sites with the Khan scream. It is done the way many Poland sites are done, but is much less popular.

The dialogue between Admiral James T. Kirk and Khan from the original scene is as follows.

**Kirk:** Khan, you bloodsucker. You're gonna have to do your own dirty work now, do you hear me? DO YOU

**Khan:** Kirk... Kirk, you're still alive, my old friend.

**Kirk:** Still, old, friend. You've managed to kill just about everyone else, but, like a poor marksman, you keep missing the target.

**Khan:** Perhaps I no longer need to try, Admiral.

**Kirk:** Khan... Khan, you've got Genesis, but you don't have me. You were going to kill me, Khan. You're gonna have to come down here. You're gonna HAVE TO COME DOWN HERE.

**Khan:** I've done far worse than kill you, Admiral. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on hurting you. I shall leave you as you left me, as you left her: marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet, buried alive. Buried alive.

**Kirk:** **KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNN!!!!!!!!** (echo) **KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNN!!!!!!!!**
