This video is the new possible meme I'm researching:

Anyone have any info?

I laughed at the first one (Jump, you pussy!), but after that, it just seemed repetitive and like something PETA would get their panties in a bunch about.

Garrys mod uses these quite a bit.

Used in YTP a lot. Specifically the "IAMGOINGTORAPEYOU!!!" Part.

The thing that I find most interesting about this video is how long it took to accumulate those 2 million views. Look at the timeline:

Uploaded in March of 2006, at first it barely got any views at all. Point D marks where it began to get substantial traffic from Facebook. Point C shows a lot of referrals from a site called 1000apor.se which looks to be defunct at this point.

This seems to be sort of a "sleeper hit" in the world of viral videos. There was no singular event that exposed it to masses of people all at once. Instead, it gradually accumulated views. It makes me wonder how often that kind of thing happens.

Actually, It's like Amazing Horse, there were a LOT of reuploads, it was hard to find the original. Could that have something to do with the viewcount accumulation?

Here's another video featuring some of the audio from the cat video:
