Moon Man began as a forced fad by farkle. His Moon Man YTMNDs usually take a .gif of a 1988 McDonalds commercial starring "Mac Tonight", a character dressed in a costume with a blue crescent moon for a head whom farkle referred to as "Moon Man", with dialogue created by an internet speech machine, usually spouting racist or otherwise offensive rhetoric. Farkle would end almost every Moon Man YTMND by repeating KKK over and over again, adding to the racist overtones of the YTMND. For a while, farkle was regarded as a troll and his repetitive YTMNDs weren't treated well by the YTMND community, but as their over-the-top racism caught on, his YTMNDs got more popular and received higher and higher ratings, and the fad would eventually be adopted by other YTMNDers, leading to the creation of other Moon Man sites, most of them retaining their familiar racist rhetoric. The fad seems to be peaking even to this day, with Moon Man YTMNDs that received ratings in the high 3s upon creation slowly accumulating more and more 5s as the fad grows in popularity, and some of the top Moon Man YTMNDs now boast ratings of 4.3 or more, despite never actually appearing on the Up and Coming or Top Rated lists.
