History Website / YTMND

* BoringInvincibleHero: Parodied with some of the entries in Zaalnog's GROARNAK series.

YTMND went down on May 13, 2019 after the site database suffered a fatal crash. This made quite a few news sites (and even this very wiki) to erroneously report that the site was down for good, but Max soon stated that this was exactly not the case, and that he would commit himself to get the sites back to working order, although he was and is still unsure whether or not he will restore the ability to create new subpages. Although for now, Max has since restored the site's ability to display already existing subpages, and his main focus is first and foremost on creating a properly working archive version of YTMND so that the site can be preserved for future generations. The website itself was revived in earnest on March 31, 2020, just in time for its anniversary.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: It's pretty much a time capsule for mid-2000's Internet culture. The rapid decline in active users means that most of their popular memes are from no later than 2008.

Just over two years after Max had originally stated that the site would likely be closing "soon", YTMND went down on May 13, 2019 after the site database suffered a fatal crash. A 2018 archive of the site is available on the Website/InternetArchive, and although Max has since managed to temporarily restore the site's subdomains, the main page, search function, and ability to create new pages all remain down for the count. Max, however, has declared that he will work towards creating a proper and modernized archive version of the site so that it may preserved for future generations.

[[http://ytmnd.com/ You're the Man Now Dog]] was a humor site that lasted from 2001 to 2019.

Just over two years after Max had originally stated that the site would likely be closing "soon", YTMND was finally shut down for good on May 13, 2019 after the site database suffered a fatal crash. A 2018 archive of the site is available on the Website/InternetArchive. Max has also declared that he will work on figuring out some way to have the site properly achieved so it can be preserved for future generations.

* AmazingFreakingGrace: Whenever a celebrity passed away, some sites would show the celebrity while "Amazing Grace" played.

* DyingTown: The site itself. There was a time when the internet was young (not actually, 2006 and 2007) 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]]. In 2016, Max said he was thinking about shutting down the site, saying "I don’t have much interest in the site beyond it being good memories.", and in 2018, they stopped accepting new user signups because of Google shutting down version 1 of its [=ReCAPTCHA=] anti-spam mechanism. And in May 2019, YTMND was shut down for good.

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

The creator, Max Goldberg, made the first site after watching the trailer to ''Film/FindingForrester''. This first site (recreated [[http://oldschoolytmnd.ytmnd.com/ here]]) consisted of some ASCII art and Creator/SeanConnery's "You're the man now, dwag!" line from the trailer. As other people started to create their own Spinoffs of the page by copying the code, Max started listing them. Eventually the list became overly long, so Max bought an entire domain for the sites and made an easy-to-use site generator. Indeed, in the pre-Youtube days, the site became a prime breeding ground for many an internet meme. And the rest is history.

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

* CuteButCacophonic: "How to care for your pet Bat" (batt.ytmnd.com)

* DarthVaderClone: As Darth Vader's ''NOOOO'' is a major fad, several spinoffs and original characters were created, including the nonsensical Vadre, the ''Series/Lazytown'' inspired Darth Stapler, Darth Khan, and many others.

* AnythingThatMoves: Dr-L337, a MemeticSexGod.

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

** 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 from the theme as "Your arms are broken!".

* 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.

* PerverseSexualLust: Stephanie from LazyTown (to the chagrin of many [=YTMNDers=])
