Whang!

Whang!

Күн бұрын

Safety Not Guaranteed was one of the defining memes of YTMND. This meme, or YTMND fad, depicted a time traveling man with a mullet next to a newspaper ad asking for help going back to the past. Accompanied by Paul Engemann's song Push it to the Limit, this meme took over all of YTMND for a long time.
As time went on, however, an increasing amount of YTMND users tried to find out the origin of the mysterious ad. Was it in fact a real ad that had run in a newspaper? Who created it? Was there legitimately a person who believed they had traveled back in time?
A few YTMND users investigated the Safety Not Guaranteed meme, and found that there was actually a phone number attached to the PO Box. Many people called the number, but without finding out much about the ad or the mullet man.
Eventually, coinciding with the release of the Safety Not Guaranteed movie, the person who wrote the original time traveler ad revealed its secrets.

Strange side story about the movie. _Safety Not Guaranteed_ was in theaters at the same time as _The Dark Knight Rises,_ the movie playing during that mass shooting at the Aurora CO, movie theater. People saw _Safety Not Guaranteed_ on the marquee of their local movie theater and thought it was some kind of sick joke in reference to the shooting, so theaters around the country got angry calls and emails. Some theaters even reworded the title or pulled the movie completely.

EDIT: This comment was meant to be a joke about people I’ve heard actually say this guy is like behind the meme, I don’t know how people didn’t get that from how stupid and, as the first replies out it, redundant it was.

two clicks and im subbed :) this is all bringing *me* back in time, to when i was sitting at my desk at work in my first post-college career job ;). really, the 00s were a strange and magical time on the internet, and ill be honest -- i kiiiinda miss it. not that it sucks now, but.. wow. ytmnd, b3ta (which I worked with photoshop extensively at work so it was easy to slack off in images), etc. sadly i have an absent minded professor brain so its really hard for me to reminisce by myself - I'm not remembering what I had for breakfast, so. Really great to listen to this stuff and have the old ashes stirred to see if there are any lit coals of memory left under there. ;)

Not sure there's a more apt combination of specific cultural media that could excite the nostalgia bone more than how you do. Muah!
