For the best videos in the history of YouTube. All sh.itjust.works server rules apply here. This is an archival community so moderation will be strict to keep the quality of posts at a consistently high level.
Some Rules
- No reposts unless it's been over 12 months and the original post wasn't highly upvoted.
- Tag NSFW
- Videos must be from before 2018. If they have been deleted and reuploaded, please make a note of that.
- Videos need not be originally from YouTube. If they were uploaded to some other platform (atomfilms, ebaumsworld, newgrounds) but fit the definition of an internet classic, that's fine. But you must post a link to a YouTube reupload, not to another website.

So it's a double negative situation and you aren't aware of how big a deal Newgrounds was when this came out? Or was the sarcasm that you are aware of that? π
Haha, honestly, I donβt even remember Newgrounds. I was pointing out that I still think itβs a YouTube classic since itβs been on there for almost its entire existence, but maybe I underestimated how popular Newgrounds was.
It would be accurate to say that Newgrounds made it famous, YouTube just kept it accessible to newer audiences as Flash was killed off.
