Wanted: someone to go back in time with me. This is not a joke.

This thread contains references to a film called "Safety Not Guaranteed" [1]. ;)

No, the film was an adaptation of a classified ad that was popularized by a YTMND page.

Oh really?! Wow, I had no idea.

You’ve got it backwards

The meme predates the film.

Nedm is another meme.

I officially am a boomer spotcorrecting ancient memes

Sorry, that meme started on YTMND in 2005 based on a post in a newspaper from the 90s. Saying the references in this thread are of the movie is like saying any mention online of "Gandalf" is a reference to the Lego Lord of the Rings game.

[Y_Y]

Are you saying that Lego Gandalf travelled back in time to retcon himself into popular fiction?

[mediocrejoker]

Thanks.

I wonder whether the original comment about "doom music" is also a reference to the film? I had never heard of it.

[PickledJesus]

It's the other way around, the film is based on a classified ad, which many years earlier was a YTMND meme/fad. NEDM is also a classic YTMND meme. https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/NEDM

It has a complicated origin, but a lot of YTMND was organic and weird like that.

[wyldfire]

I just assumed it was about ytmnd.

Can you guarantee safety?

[mindcrime]

Maybe if you provide your own weapons...

[starshadowx2]

How many times have you done this before?

Please for the love of everything, let's go. I'm in. This is not a joke.
