About

When I'm Bored is a video remix series featuring short clips and images from various fandoms compiled into a fast-paced montage sequence and set to the Audiostalkers remix of "Let Me Hit It" by Sporty-O. Many of the video titles use variations of the snowclone template "When I'm X."

Origin

YouTuber ancasgirl95[1] uploaded a video titled "When I'm Bored" (shown below, left) on August 31, 2010, which featured several short clips and images of the character Yoko[2] from the Japanese anime series Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. Much of the source material was taken from the music video "Kirameki Yoko Box – Pieces of Sweet Stars", [3] accompanied by the Audiostalkers[4] remix of the song "Let Me Hit It" (shown below, right).

The video remained somewhat unknown until October of 2011. Within two years of being uploaded, the video received over 9,900,000 views.
