You're the Man Now Dog is a humor site created in 2001.The creator, Max Goldberg, made the first site after watching the trailer to Finding Forrester. This first site (recreated here) consisted of some ASCII art and Sean Connery's "You're the man now, dog!" 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.Though the site was a well-known internet humour nexus in the mid-2000s, peaking in popularity around 2006-2007 and even getting mentions and write-ups in traditional media, the site began to sharply decline in relevance and traffic in The New '10s as sites like YouTube and Facebook grew in popularity, absorbing the niche market that YTMND had originally catered to. Left largely un-updated, most of the infrastructure that the site was built around has been slowly rendered obsolete, though a small but loyal userbase kept the site profitable enough to remain running through the middle of the decade.YTMND went down on May 13, 2019 after the site database suffered a major 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 not the case, and that he would commit himself to get the sites back to working order, even if it meant that new subpages could not be created. Max was able to restore the site's ability to display already existing subpages, and his focus shifted toward 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 30, 2020, just in time for its 19th anniversary.It also has its own wiki.

Dying Town: 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 this site, and a wasteland in this one.

AlternateCharacterInterpretation
 YTMND (Website) / int_54f999c
comment
Alternate Character Interpretationinvoked: Mac Tonight, an originally harmless advertising mascot who was turned into the evil Moon Man. Doc Louis and Little Mac training◊ in the NES version of Punch-Out!! became Little Mac pursuing Doc the bike thief with "Nigga stole my bike!" To the point that the 2009 Wii remake added a scene stating that the bike did belong to Mac. Cosmo Kramer is often characterized primarily by his actor's racist outburst, so he is commonly portrayed as a hot-headed racist prone to shouting the N-word at the slightest provocation. Darth Vader is also primarily characterized on the site by his infamous NOOOOO! at the end of Revenge of the Sith, so rather than a badass, intimidating villain, he more commonly appears as a man who is constantly failing at things, even to the point of sympathy. Similarly, Captain Kirk is portrayed as being obsessed with Khan to the point that he blames him for every bad thing that happens and yells at him constantly. Dr. Billy V. Koen, in reality a kind but slightly eccentric engineering professor, is often characterized as a sinister, threatening, or even supernatural villain. Former New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin, due to his bizarre and racially insensitive 'Chocolate City' speech, is often shown as actually obsessed with chocolate, as in the food. In canon, Severus Snape killed Dumbledore as part of Dumbledore's own plan to help the former infiltrate the Death Eaters. On YTMND, Snape kills Dumbledore (or other random people) just because.

Alternate Universe
 YTMND (Website) / int_8430699a
comment
Alternate Universe: 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 Bizarro Universe versions of popular YTMND fads under the label of PTKFGS. Soon after, sites with the YESYES label followed, which is basically a Take a Third Option 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 Multiverse known collectively as "Fourth Corner". HEH is considered by some to be the official 4th Corner Universe, as it is also in the trailer. However, those against this idea point out that HEH is technically a part of the "Yes...Yes!" line. Let's not forget YTMNSFW, the Not Safe for Work version suitable for more mature stuff. The apex/nadir of the running gag was SEAOMF.

Unnecessary Combat Roll
 YTMND (Website) / int_8a0bc642
comment
The "Epic Maneuver" fad, wherein people do things in an unnecessarily epic manner, sometimes failing. The original was taken from the overly dramatic and badly acted Unnecessary Combat Roll underneath a really slow-moving door from Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Best of Both Worlds: Part I".

Also, the behavior of trolls Pilleater and Johnny Lurg 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!"

My God, What Have I Done?: The user Murdarmachene was the first one to make a site using the soon - to - be - infamous Moon Man gif (pairing it with a completely non-offensive song). Farkle and the Moon Crew then created the Moon Man fad by taking the gif from that site and reposting it hundreds of times, accompanied by racist TTS messages and the signature KKK chant. Murdarmachene allegedly quit YTMND (at least, under his original name) because he was so ashamed of what he had accidentally started.

Non-Natural Number Gag: The rating scale only goes from 1 to 5, but certain users leave comments indicating that they intended to vote outside of the scale, whether it's 0 (which can be accomplished by simply not voting), a number off the scale like 6, 7, 8, 599, 3500, or 9001, or something completely ridiculous like 'voting percent sign'. Max also once used his admin powers to vote negative one million on a site, which was later deleted.

Bizarro Universe
 YTMND (Website) / int_f57372a1
comment
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 Bizarro Universe versions of popular YTMND fads under the label of PTKFGS. Soon after, sites with the YESYES label followed, which is basically a Take a Third Option 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 Multiverse known collectively as "Fourth Corner".
