The audio is from the episode &#8220;Lovesick Sonic&#8221;. In the clip, Sonic teaches about viewers about how being &#8220;touched in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfertable&#8230; is no good.&#8221; Today this is still the most viewed instance of &#8220;Sonic Sez&#8221; on <span class="caps">YTMND</span> with over 213,000 hits.</p> <ul> <li><a href=http://sonicsez.ytmnd.com/>Sonic Says</a></li> </ul> <p>Other examples include:</p> <ul> <li><a href=http://sonicytmnd.ytmnd.com/>Sonic with fad advice</a></li> <li><a href=http://yetanothersonicsays.ytmnd.com/>Sonic says&#8230;quite a lot, actually</a></li> <li><a href=http://subliminalsonic.ytmnd.com/>Sonic Says: Subliminal Messages</a></li> <li><a href=http://ytmndbeatsall.ytmnd.com/>Sonic Says <span class="caps">YTMND</span> Pwns All</a></li> </ul> <p><strong>The Lawsuit</strong><br /> On January 11th, 2007, <a href=http://ytmnd.com/news/?news_id=56><span class="caps">YTMND</span> posted a notice</a> that they had been issued some sort of legal documents from <span class="caps">SEGA</span> calling for the end of the Sonic Says meme, but the link to the document is no longer valid.</p> <p>One possibility is that <span class="caps">SEGA</span> issued a Cease and Desist notice for copyright violation, but the Sonic YTMNDs were found to be fair use as parodies; but this is pure speculation. The meme has since outgrown <span class="caps">YTMND</span>, and can be found as a Youtube Poop.</p> <h2>Youtube Poop</h2> <p>The same clip has appeared in a number of Youtube Poops</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/IEaMAjXLKB0&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/IEaMAjXLKB0&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/E9zFV3VP3-M&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/E9zFV3VP3-M&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KejnZAx7dH8&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KejnZAx7dH8&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/58Dksf5JJpQ&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/58Dksf5JJpQ&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3EXEYP1U5xw&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3EXEYP1U5xw&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> 2009-09-06T06:23:50Z 83 13 293 http://knowyourmeme.com/system/icons/83/original/Sonicsays.jpg?1236394532
