Everyone knows YTP's. They peaked in the early 2000s and are still going somehow. I never see anyone talk about the "edited" video's. Search "spongebob edited" or any other popular media at the time (usually cartoons from the early to mid 2000s).<p>I feel like I've never seen anyone talk about these even though ones like "grandma's kisses" got over a million views.<p>It seems the only real difference is that unlike YTP's changing around what characters say to sound funny. Edited videos just slap in pngs and soundbytes from popular 2000s movies & comedians over what the characters are saying.<p>These video's are totally cancer now and i could never watch them again but I feel like they are a big part of youtube & internet history that nobody mentions. I remember hearing spongebob drop f bombs and laughing my ass off at like 12 years old.
Maybe rephrase your title using "Ask HN:"<p>Also, if you included a link, I'd check it out, but I have no idea what you're actually referring to. Color me curious though
