Tiny People Dancing in Food sites feature a tiny person or tiny people, usually celebrities or pop stars, dancing in normal sized food or drink.

History

The concept of celebrities in food was not entirely new to YTMND, as lizardman created Mariah Carey Dancing in Butter in January 2006. Lizardman's site features a normal sized Mariah Carey dancing in an extremely large tub of butter. In these newer sites, the celebrities are minuscule and the food is normal sized. Lizardman even made this distinction himself here.:

Oh, and the difference between mine (MC in Butter) and these others is that while Beyonce, Jacko, and Shakira are all tiny and dancing in normal sized food, Mariah is normal sized and it's the butter that's gigantic. Just FYI.

Style

One of the noteworthy characteristics of these sites is the video-realistic quality of the tiny dancing celebrity within the animated gif. This effect is achieved by painstakingly rotoscoping a number of video frames and inserting that sequence into a larger composition.

What’s up people. I am laundry. I am a 25 year old male from the great lakes state, otherwise known as Michigan.

Site naming

I started out doing the "</ \>" as a way to be different and I thought it looked cool(stupid, I know). Then I stopped doing it for a couple sites. I was then asked why I stopped doing it, and I said "gee, idk my bff rose?" I was then told that it was my thing, my calling card and thus I started doing it again. I suppose it is now a permanent figure in my site making, deal with it.

IRC

I hang out in IRC (internet relay chat) on efnet. You can find me in the channels of #?! And it’s offshoot channel of #tgubg. I started going on IRC because I wanted to participate in all these theme nights I kept witnessing on the front page, then once I became a regular in the channel they stopped doing them. Joke is on me I suppose. I guess I stay in there now for all the highbrow topics of discussion going on all the time(heh, not really).

Artfag?

I have been called an artfag on a couple of occasions. I guess some of my sites tend to be artsy, so I consider the title as a badge of honor.

Other crap you probably are not interested in to know
