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]. ;)

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_Not_Guaranteed

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.

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

Thanks.

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

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.

I just assumed it was about ytmnd.

Can you guarantee safety?

Maybe if you provide your own weapons...

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.
