About
Federal Regulations, also known as Black Man Dancing Saying No, is a meme trend that uses a viral video of TikToker @flyguyyagga, AKA Bomboclaat Boss, dancing and gesturing "no" with his hands. The video is typically overlayed with a joke about obscure, outdated or niche federal laws. Memes about federal regulations denying certain practices were popularized on TikTok in December 2023 and spread to Instagram in January 2024.
