The video is called “the grapefruit technique”.

Have literally no idea

In no particular order, it would contain the words:
“Use” “a” “grapefruit” “to” “satisfy” “your” “man”

wat? I might be stupid at this point

I think it’s goatse.

No that’s lemonparty

You need to grapefruit your man

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.

You ever click on a link while thinking 'this is a bad idea"…

The sound… the sound haunts my dreams

slosh slosh slosh shluurp

The internet is wild, people spend most of their time in small echo chambers and they think that is the whole internet.

I mean, back when this was a meme the whole internet was like a single echo chamber, especially in the early days of YouTube and even more so prior.

hmmm… I’m pretty sure I’ve been around since before YouTube started and don’t have any idea, so I still think is the case.

I think people tend to not understand how big internet is, even back then. This makes it difficult to know which memes really made it all the way to become THAT popular (and even those are not know by everyone, some people just don’t follow memes)

I love how instead of “oh, I don’t get this joke, oh well” you’ve gone directly to “these other people don’t understand the internet as well as I do!!1”
😂

That would be me. The only thing I did back then was play video games. There was no web browsing unless it was for a game. I didn’t even know what a meme was until about ten years ago when I started using Reddit and branched out from gaming related themes.

No. No it wasn’t. I’ve been here since YouTube started and have never seen this. People thinking they’re experience is everyone’s experience is wild.

Had a colleague that told me about some memes with a gay porn star. He couldn’t grasp that I neither know the guy nor the memes. Allegedly they were all over the internet for years. I’ve never seen any of them since.

This guy is a libertarian right wing incel, so I’m pretty sure our internet experiences are completely different.

I mean, there is a shared experience for people who were online when things started. I remember Newgrounds, eBaum’s World, Nyan Cat, Epic Rap Battles of History, StumbleUpon.com.

I imagine you also experienced some or most of that short list to some extent.

We think of things like numa numa being everywhere, but can you believe there were people who didn’t see it at the time? Wild.

Ahh, yes. The golden era of usenet flaming.

Yes let’s project our experience onto others

I’ve been using Internet since late 90s and I have no idea what that is
