* OverlyLongTitle: "[[http://ylmtiotocytstwotdadsfse.ytmnd.com/ You Let Me Take It On This One 'Cause You're Too Scared To Walk Out The Door And Do Something For Somebody Else]]", based on a line from the CallingTheOldManOut scene in ''FindingForrester''. Incidentally, the actual movie had a word cut out for the trailer ("...'cause you're too [[PrecisionFStrike damn]] scared...").

** The "Epic Maneuver" fad, wherein people do things in an unnecessarily epic manner, sometimes failing. The original was taken from an overly dramatic and badly acted UnnesseceryCombatRoll underneath a really slow-moving door from StarTrekTheNextGeneration.

** The second is the opposite: involving taking an entire song sung in a foreign language and using InMyLanguageThatSoundsLike to write English lyrics for it. This one started with an interpretation of the Finnish version of the ''WesternAnimation/{{Ducktales}}'' theme, which was actually spun off from a "Dew Army" type site which only interpreted one line as "Your arms are broken!".

** The first involves taking one line from a song that sounds like something else and pairing it with an appropriate picture. This collection was named the "Dew Army," after [[http://dew.ytmnd.com/ a famous YTMND]] of DavidHasselhoff singing "[[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Du]]"

* DyingTown: The site itself. There was a time the when front page moved so fast, it'd be different every time you refreshed. Now, it stays static for days on end. It's portrayed as a zombie town in [[http://returnofmax.ytmnd.com/ this site]], and a wasteland in [[http://newuserytmndtutorial.ytmnd.com/ this one.]]

** YTMND also hates 4chan with a passion.

* LaughablyEvil: This seems to be the entire appeal of the Moon Man fad/character

** The "Epic Maneuver" fad, wherein people do things in an unnecessarily epic manner, sometimes failing.

* BigEater: Ugoff is often portrayed this way, due to the line in his commercial where he announces "Ugoff is hungry!"

** The "Epic Manuver" fad, wherein people do things in an unnecessarily epic manner, sometimes failing.

** Charles Moonington, Moon Man's stereotypical British alter ego

* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible[=/=]Offensive: Invoked by the troll "hivemindedindividuals", whose [=YTMNDs=] were artistic montages of [[ShockSite shock pictures, such as gore, beheadings, naked corpses]], et cetera, and would make bizarre Dali-like statements in the comments. Despite all the annoyance towards him, he managed to make front page somewhat regularly.

The main feature of the site is to allow users to create their own pages, or [=YTMNDs=], using a GIF animation, an [=MP3=] file and the site's patented zooming text.

* {{Mondegreen}}: Two fads based on them. The first involves taking one line from a song that sounds like something else and pairing it with an appropriate picture. The second involves taking an entire song that is sung in a foreign language and using InMyLanguageThatSoundsLike to write English lyrics for it.

** The Epic Manuver fad, wherein people do things in an unnecessarily epic manner, sometimes failing.

** After the trailer that started it all was posted as an [=YTMND=], many users started wondering what would have happened if Max had decided to use one of Sean Connery's other lines, namely "Punch the keys, for God's sake!" or "Yes...Yes!". Eventually, some users started creating BizarroUniverse versions of popular [=YTMND=] fads under the label of [=PTKFGS=]. Soon after, sites with the [=YESYES=] label followed, which is basically a TakeAThirdOption spin on the fads. Then, since Connery only had these three lines in the trailer, many users worked around it by using some of his other lines from the film to create a fourth Alternate Universe. Which one of the many candidates is the true fourth universe is still under dispute, but the general consensus seems to be that the fourth universe is in fact a [[TheMultiverse Multiverse]] known collectively as "Fourth Corner".

* BeamSpam: Baron Lasers

* CloudCuckooLander: VinnyWeapons, the user who always made the same comment: "the robots have taken me. please send help." Also, the behavior of trolls Pilleater and JohnnyLurg often reaches this territory, such as the time the former user pretended that he went blind. Two months later, he posted, "I can see again!" The user zomglolwtfzor usually epitomizes this trope, but occasionally breaks character.
* ConquerorFromTheFuture: Future Conan

* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: Raptor Jesus

* HeManWomanHater: Chad Wardenn

* JailBaitWait: Many users eagerly counted down the days until Julianna Rose-Mauriello, the actress who played Stephanie on LazyTown, would become 18, and made many [=YTMNDs=] celebrating the occasion when it actually did happen

* LoudnessWar: The FPA and ear rape fads, some mixes would easily reach levels 12 or 13 on the MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness, such as [[http://vote5moonmankhanvaderbergkampfpa.ytmnd.com/ this]] (and that's only a roughly typical example).

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Moon Man

* StylisticSuck: The "Age 9" and "CrapTMND" fads.

* TradeSnark: Popularized by the user Murdarmachene

* WeDidntStartTheBillyJoelParodies: It's got one, entitled "[[http://wdstw.ytmnd.com/ We Didn't Start the Website]]".

[[http://ytmnd.com/ You're the Man Now Dog]] is a popular humor site.

* LoudnessWar: Taken BeyondTheImpossible with the FPA and ear rape fads, some mixes would easily reach levels 12 or 13 on the MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness, such as [[http://vote5moonmankhanvaderbergkampfpa.ytmnd.com/ this]] (and that's only a roughly typical example).

* AntiquatedLinguistics: Used in the Medieval fad (although some people get it wrong and cross the territory into SpockSpeak instead

* {{Catchphrase}}: In ye old days of 2006, a troll would serially downvote any YTMND with "you fail, please try again ^_^". The trolling was prolific enough to trigger rage and memes... and inspire similar trolls to leave catchphrases of their own.

* BuryYourGays: The [=FaggotPSA=] gang seems to often enforce this

* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-AfvgFfSSk This track]] from ''ChronoTrigger'' indicates that [[MemeticMolester Brian Peppers]] is around the corner.
