Edit history

Because of Wikipedia's edit history, we have to cite the edit history of the article before it was moved to YTMND. The edit history can be found at /history. Messedrocker 13:02, June 19, 2006 (CDT)

Alright, the edit history is added, but warning, the edit history page is huge as fuck. Messedrocker 13:06, June 19, 2006 (CDT)

 this page violates use-mention, and should keep the list of fads separate from the description of the fads.
 in fact, lists in general should be put to use all over ytmndwiki:

NEDM

I really think NEDM should be added to this page. There's over 21 pages of NEDM sites on a ytmnd search. Also that's not counting alot of pages that don't have NEDM in the title (like Manson's Scientology Secret). Edit. I just added it, figured you people wouldn't bitch too much. Also I left the NEDM subarticle in the misc. fads sections (but it should probably be deleted now that this is where it belongs). --Moheevi 19:03, July 6, 2006 (CDT)

Butt racing

...is listed both at Fads and Miscellaneous fads. I'm kindofa YTMND n00b, is it a big fad or not? --It's Smiddle, LOL | That's GOOD! 03:10, June 21, 2006 (CDT)

Butt racing should be taken out of the most popular fads, it only has 3 pages worth of YTMNDs. Patriarch 00:35, June 26, 2006 (CDT)

It has 4 if you include the alternate spelling "buttracing", for what that's worth.  :) What is the threshold for "popular" fad status? I would count it as important, because it is readily recognizable. Also, the reason there are so few, is that they take more time to produce than the average ytmnd. The Vader "NOOO" has ten bajillion ytmnds simply because of all the morons who crop an image in MSpaint and use the same WAV and call that a ytmnd. Steben 04:58, July 13, 2006 (CDT)

"ROFL; books"

In the PTKFGS entry, it says that it can be "ROFL; BOOKS" instead of "lol, internet". Isn't it "omg, internet"? Searches: ptkfgs+omg YTMNDs (secret commie stuff will appear, but try don't care), PTKFGS+rofl YTMNDs. The "omg, internet" fad is reparodied, but not "ROFL; books". --It's Smiddle, LOL | What is Talk Page? 06:54, June 21, 2006 (CDT)

Bill Cosby

In: Bill Cosby from a fictional Kids Say the Darndest Things skit shown on The Simpsons where he asks a child what he likes to play. The child says "Pokémon," which Cosby then rambles about incoherently.

Wasn't it Family guy and not The Simpsons?

No, it was The Simpsons, from the episode 'Hungry Hungry Homer'. Funnily enough, the Cosby sample from Family Guy is the one where Cosby says 'I had an uncle named Stewie' Vitafin 15:36, July 6, 2006 (CDT)
