YIAY

Go To

Inspired by Jacksfilms’s Yesterday I Asked You series, or YIAY for short. I’m going to ask a Jacksfilms-style question, and other posters must give humorous answers. Tomorrow, I will repeat the question and give my favorite answers. I will then let another poster ask a new question, and the cycle repeats (at least) every day.

Example of a YIAY video.

If the original poster isn’t available to give their favorite answers, another poster is free to step in and give theirs (barring their own).

I have a question for you. Describe TV Tropes in just 4 words.

I got hired as a dildo tester. Probably should have taken it slower. (By the way, my review: product will probably have limited appeal to consumers.)

Trimming the hedges, one trope at a time.

Being hired as a Doctor.

All the boringness of a normal hospital, but without the laying in bed and watching TV.

Prepare to diode.
