"Why are you filling up your car?"
"Out of gas."
Is the funniest fucking thing I've seen in months
yeah what would they expect from someone fuelling up their car
Such a dumb question lmao
when she asked that I was so confused like "why do you think?". It was so funny lol.
gives off the same energy as
“how do you keep your pants up when you’re performing? it’s incredible!”
“belt.”
I’m so glad I’m not alone in thinking that was fucking hilarious
"Why are you filling up your car?"
"Outta gas"
Simple man, simple problem, simple answer.
Same energy as “how do you keep your pants up when you’re performing?”
“Belt”
Ted Nivison looked the same in y2k as he does now

To be clear, the Y2K bug absolutely was a thing and a lot of talented programmers and computer engineers worked their asses off to fix the problem. It wouldn't have been the end of the world, but it would have caused a lot of problems if left unchecked.
yeah, even when I was little I realized that either A) Its a scaremonger or B) They are going to fix it before its an issue, no one is going to theorize that this can happen and just only prep
Lots of problems would have arose, however I'm not sure the toasters malfunctioning were among those problems 💀
@@michylapershell9182Futurama be like
This. A lot of time and money was spent trying to ensure there were no major issues when 2000 rolled around. It was a very real thing, but there was also a lot of ridiculous fearmongering around it.
@@NuttyMongrel most of us understood the problem and knew that any important computers had been updated. I don’t remember it being any real concern for most people by the time the year 2000 rolled around.
“Women don’t have much to do with computers”
Literally the first ever computing machine was partially made by a woman, Ada Lovelace in THE EIGHTEEN FORTIES!!, who is also considered to be the first if not one of the first programmers, like. My dude. Check your mfuckin facts
Men don't tend to think women can handle the crazy world of pcs. Yes, women trailblazers 👏👏👏 it's a difficult industry for women to work in still.
Wasn't she lord Byron's daughter or something? Iirc the reason why she even studied math was because her mom hated poets so much (because they're all sluts) that she decided to teach her daughter science instead of arts.
!! the word computer initially referred to the person who programmed, or computed, the machines. it was a job mostly given to women for a number of years because it was considered to be adjacent to being a secretary, which was also essential and extremely undervalued work.
@@tired1923 it's definitely not easy to be a woman working in the industry. My friend (f) got asked by her assistant (m) if she knew how to turn on her laptop because it's" tricky". She was running the whole section of the programming company. Again, his boss. Happened a few months ago. It's happened many, many times to her. Never happened to any man I've met in the industry.
You're completely right, secretaries ran all the machinery in the office.
I'm glad young guys have Kurtis 🇨🇦.
He's wonderfully refreshing and he doesn't live too far away ❤️ .
***Not stalking you Kurtis, I just know the scenery.***
Grace Hopper is one of my heros. Someone else mentioned Ada Lovelace. Catherine Johnson. Anybody who ever thought women couldn't understand computers had no knowledge of the history of the industry. I get it, there seem to be fewer women than men who want to make a career working with them, but history and personal experience tell me that some of the sharpest minds in tech are female.
if kurtis had a second name starting with “f” his initials would be “KFC”. end of the communication.

As a female Computer Engineering student, I can confirm that I know nothing about computers.

As a female learning code, I know nothing about these “ computers “ and times 😕
Have you tried labelling food as "computers"?
I remember we were having a New Year’s party on 12/31/99, and the moment the countdown finished, my dad turned off all the power to the house. The panic from all involved was palpable.
thats really funny lol
I love that oh my god 😭
If I was a father in 1999 that’s exactly what I would do
Best dad of that year
my uncle did the same hehe
The "threaten your physician" part is batshit, but the whole thing about not being able to get a reasonable amount of extra medication to keep on hand for emergencies is an actual concern for the disability community. A disaster can mean pharmacies not receiving stocks of meds, or us not being able to pick up our refills, but thanks to excessive gatekeeping our lives are put at risk by not being able to plan ahead.
Lots of us just skip meds to stockpile, risking our safety
@@riftlee yep. It's horrible. I just order everything as soon as I can, and if I need to miss doses for any reason it contributes to my stockpile.
*sobs in ADHD*
Currently on titration for meds and yeah.. its been stopped in its track. I've found meds that help but not the perfect dose and now I've not even had that for a month :,)
@@doingitwelldotbizone time I lost 3 30 day scripts right after the doctor had written them. Luckily I had just left it on a table at the hospital, but if I had lost it and not found it I would be fucked for 3 months
To be fair, putting the word FOOD on a label makes me immediately suspicious that the contents are not really food.
Contents 100% Completely Edible For Humans
I think the point of that is to get a diversity of stuff, and not just stock up on like 500 cans of the same food which can make you go into a vitamin deficency of whatever that food doesn't have.

@@thatoneinternetguy9258 omgggg 🤣🤣🤣🤣 underrated comment
as a pastry cook, i think i would genuinely pass away if all stand mixers stopped working
As a kid we used a mechanical hand mixer that worked by hand cranking it. Whipping cream took forever with it so my sister and i took turns when our hands got tired. We did have an electric mixer but my parents probably thought it would be too dangerous for us kids to use.
Omg so real. I already have carpal tunnel from piping so much, add hand mixing and I would simply cease to exist I think. I already have to hand mix color into my frosting and that's killer enough as it is lol
Yes we were fine - however it wasn’t because it wasn’t an issue - it is because thousands of people in the IT industry patched all of the systems in time. Believe me it was a major effort that everyone worked on until the final hours. I was present in the healthcare industry during Y2K.
Honestly shout out to all the workers who fixed all that shit under that much pressure
This is so true, I was working at Apple at the time and we barely managed to get the code fixed in time for the midnight switch.
It still was never gonna be the end of the world lol everything just would’ve broke for a while. Houses were never gonna catch fire, coffee pots were never gonna explode, etc.
I remember NHS sent pregnant women a bunch of emails saying their babies were stillborn.
@@pinheadlarry2921 yeah worst case data would just get mixed up. Which can be really bad in a hospital that stores patient data digitally, but it won't cause computers to just explode lol
I love to think that some ancient Mayans were creating their calendar and thought "Right, all the way to 2012. This was hard to make, but I'm sure that the people of 2012 won't mind making a new calendar once this one's time is up.".
why is this so funny-
Some Mayan councilman decided there's no more budget for the calendar stonemason & cut off his funding. On his last day, after the 2 weeks notice of course, he quit at a random place, put his tools in a cardboard box, and left the premises.
People in 2012: WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!
I thought exactly that huauhahua
I mean, that was probably the case, realistically.
I like to imagine the made it thinking; "I wish I could see the reaction of the people from 2012 when they see that it ends"
"They put two k's instead of one. Which begs the question... Y2K?" That is the best pun Kurtis has ever made, maybe ever
LITERALLY SO GENIUS
I think YT should send him a trophy for that one
LITERALLY
I had to literally pause the video and breathe. THE GENIUS OF THAT PUN OOF
Lmao I'm dying over it
I remember hearing my grandparents talking about how we would have to get horses after y2k, because all the cars would stop working, and let me tell you... I was so. Fucking. Excited.
I wanted that damn horse.
😂😂😂
Lmaoo
Fun fact Y2K was a diverted emergency. Things really were going to stop working but a team of computer engineers worked together to fix the issue with the computers and diverted the problem
source? not like i care but-
@@JayChaos-lx8gi "“The Y2K crisis didn’t happen precisely because people started preparing for it over a decade in advance. And the general public who was busy stocking up on supplies and stuff just didn’t have a sense that the programmers were on the job,” says Paul Saffo, a futurist and adjunct professor at Stanford University."
It's more teams of software people all around the world updated all software so software continued working. Not just one team solving everything magically.
Source : my colleagues did that kind of work at the time.
Missed opportunity in the trailer to use “it’s a whisk I’m willing to take”

Omfg-
Oh noooo lol
Nice I'm the 621st like
Dude. That “Why two k?” joke may have been one of the greatest jokes ever written. Not just YOUR greatest joke, kkurtis.
You did NOT just write kkurtis i refuse
Why two k?
Why two k?
why two k ?
why two k ???
My anxiety definitely stems from growing up with the media constantly going through apocalyptic messaging. It's just ingrained in me now. Y2k, the blackout, 2012, Sars, 911, covid 19... I'm not sure if there's more but I can remember each of these issues like it was yesterday.
@@IDAHOJAKE wow, I thought you were just an inensitive asshole without any care for other people's lives but seeing you copy the same thing in multiple comments just makes me feel sad for you
Psst... Ebola.
I don’t know what “the blackout” is lol if you can then mind explaining I searched it up and a movie came up
I was the exact opposite and I just live in if I die i die mode
what was the blackout
Aight not to be a nerd but basically, the concern with Y2K was that when the digits flip over to 00, it doesn't just look weird, the computer actually reads it as 1900 rather than 2000. So if you had a medical record of someone born in 1901, then when they visited the hospital next, the computer would think granny caught a cold a year before she was born. It COULD'VE been an issue, but thankfully it's a fairly easy fix. Helps that we had a good amount of warning in advance, seeing as we don't change centuries terribly often.
The knock on effect could also have cause underflow errors in other systems that used the date for calculations but yeah ultimately not anything harmful just software errors
the why two k joke is legendary. i don’t make the rules. no one will ever make a better joke. this is it.
That’s legitimately the reason I liked the video
@@haha-lj5sq I ducked out and hit like immediately hahaha
The dislikes are from people who don't have a sense of humor.
but it makes me sad tho, cause that was obviously the peak of humanity and it's just gonna get worse from now on
i can’t explain why this joke is the best one ever made
Fun thing: My dad absolutely believed that Y2K was going to happen, and he placed gallons of water all throughout the house. My mom called him an idiot on January 1st, 2000.
Memento Mori!
My dad filled up jugs of water too. But he's always been a bit of a conspiracy theorist.
ah a fellow [redacted] enjoyer, memento mori
Memento Mori
Momento mori, unus annus
17:00 Completely right. In Fallout games, bottle caps are used as money because they decided they're valuable
Isn't something in the first game about 1 bottle cap being 1 bottle of clean water?
I was 6 when Y2K hit. Thankfully my family was sensible, and my father at the time was a sysadmin so he was actively working on making sure systems wouldn't break - and so we knew it was going to be harmless. Fun fact - Y2K only affected Windows workstations, as at the time Unix systems ran a 32 bit integer of seconds since January 1st 1970 (no, that date has no meaning, it was chosen randomly) - which means they would have been fine until 2038. (And now we're running 64 bit systems so we're good for a LONG time)
2012 hit different though. Has anything really felt real since then?
Not all unix stations...
I’m kinda upset that I’ll never get to hear that “why two k?” joke for the first time ever again.

Y2K WAS a real thing, it took hundreds of people thousands of hours to update every system so nothing would crash when the clocks ticked over. If they did nothing, then everything woulda been fucked.

My mother was very nonchalant about the whole thing- I was 10, and our whole family grew up in the woods near a major river here in Alaska, so we were used to expecting difficult events and my own mom survived multiple events to include the Alaskan 1964 earthquake. We woke up the first morning Jan 1, 2000, shrugged, moved on, and about ten years later I saw my first internet cat video. We all turned out to be fine after all 😂 🐈
hey what's it like living in alaska? is it super cold and isolated like the way I usually imagine haha I live in Georgia I'm curious
@@atlanticamnesia large parts of it are pretty isolated, but where I live it's mostly pretty much like living in a normal town. in the winter as it can get to be about 20 below zero as well, but it can also get pretty hot in certain parts in the summer. The trickiest part for me is the daylight shifting because it can impact your mood, being super dark for most of the 24 hour day in the winter time, and mostly light out all day in the summer late into the night. Sorry this comment is late :)
@@zeniascreativespace3890 COOL I never even knew that Alaska got to be dark and freeezing but sounds pretty normal like towns and nice summers and stuff that's so cool!

I was 16. I think I remember this exact BS video. My poor grandmother was terrified. She bought cases of Coleman propane tanks and some -20 degree sleeping bags. Maybe we were going to die, but weren’t going to die cold.
I worked as an IT professional in the late 90's, and let me tell you that the reason Y2K never became an issue is because we worked around the clock from about 95'-97' to patch every single system with updates that fixed the potential issues. It "didn't happen" because we fixed it. Also I'm a bit late to the party. Do I need a patch?

Men: "women don't understand computers or math or time or dates"
Women in the early 1900's who literally held the job description of Computer: "Sorry what was that? I was busy running complex mathematical operations by hand."
Women in the 1960's: "Sorry, what was that? I was busy doing math for NASA to make sure the moon landing will actually work."

Truth about y2k was that it was set to happen, but everything that didn't matter was dropped so that the main computers that actually mattered were updated to avoid it. Didn't stop my dad from shutting off the TV around midnight. He had a ear to ear smile when my 10 year old face turned to wonder and shock that it actually happened. At which point he pointed out the lights were still on and just started laughing.... old man definitely got me there.
fun fact: the US federal reserve actually had a Y2K disaster response team that worked to keep the economy from collapsing in the event that all the computers stopped working and poured billions of dollars of US government money into modernizing financial computer systems across america. the team had a command post in the fed's william mcchesney martin building on the night of the new year, where approximately 100 people monitored the world's transition into the 2000s. the government prepared for a complete recession, stockpiling cash at 90 locations around the US and releasing billions of dollars worth of liquidity into the US banking system. the disaster team stayed up all night to make sure that the country transitioned smoothly into Y2K.

I remember this, well, not this instructional video but the whole Y2K crisis. I remember all the older generations saying “see this is what happens when you rely on all this ‘TECHNOLOGY’” usually with dramatic air quotes around technology. People thought everything in the world was just gonna stop and we were gonna go back to the Stone Age. And then midnight rolled around and literally nothing changed. I remember my uncle who was chemical engineer but was also like brilliant about everything really didn’t think anything was going to happen. So I wasn’t that scared. Everything scientific wise I have ever asked him has been right from what my memory serves me. But it was a huuuuuuuuuge deal.

Y2K is a joke because 300 billion dollars was spent to ensure nothing happened. Lots of updated firmware, my dad was working in factory robotics at the time, apparently it was a big deal for corporate and industry but not nearly as big a deal for average people. It was better in the long run, cause it meant we stopped using systems from the 1960s.
I'm sure others have said this but the only reason nothing happened on the year 2000 was because there was a ton of attention that went to the problem. Countless numbers of people worked really hard to prep computer systems, update software, and set up new systems in order to ensure that everything kept working. The risks were very real although some, like all the nukes launching were complete fiction, but if we hadn't done anything there would've been significant problems. So credit to all the people who worked hard to avert any issues with Y2K.

Issa joke
or maybe a *commentary* youtuber‼️‼️
That "why are filling up your car?" question had the EXACT energy of the "how do you manage to keep your pants from falling?" vine

So my Grandma was working as a head IT in a huge food distribution warehouse leading up to and after 2000, and she once told me that one of her coworkers asked her what they were going to do on y2k, to which she responded “I’m going to come to work, and you’re going to come to work, and if anything is wrong we’ll fix it before the warehouse workers get here”
20:09 WHAT LMAO
Normal people in 2012: OH GOD WE'RE GONNA **DIE**
Tumblr in 2012: ayo the oncler is kinda hot
Oh my god I just got war flashbacks reading that
I can see the fan art again smh
This thing is returning nowadays btw, I just need to know why
@@BurnTheTeddy probably because a lot of people that were kids when the movie first came out are in their teens or early twenties and so they're only now getting into the fandom for it
@@jaydenp.1690 that makes sense, a friend of mine is reeealy into the Onceler and she is a teenager
I died at the "why are you filling up your car?" "Out of gas" that guy is my hero.
Literally lmal
I love really obvious answers to dumbass questions
his tone and comedic timing was impeccable i hope he’s doing well in 2021
He’s a legend
Omg same lol
People definitely hoarded toilet paper during Y2K. I know this because there was a King of the Hill episode about it.
I was working for a small company as a database developer during Y2K. I was pretty much the only tech/ developer, and management insisted I spend the night at work on 12/31/1999 to make sure everything was okay. Being alone at work with high speed Internet all night gave me the perfect opportunity to download music and play games. We did have some issues with our billing system, but I had fixed those months in advance. And yes, all I had to do was test our code with future dates to figure out what needed to be fixed.
When my great grandma died my parents went to go clean out her house. They didn’t keep much, but what the did keep was a 2 liter bottle of 7 up filled with water labeled Y2K. We still have it in our house 20 years later. It is my favorite family heirloom.
‘Don’t drink until Y2K’ lol
Wow that's funny and interesting
Your great-great...son shall drink it on y3k
@Happy Camper 😟
@Happy Camper my lord
No lie, that “why two k” joke is probably the funniest thing I’ve ever heard and will ever hear
Guy: How do you spell acknowledge?
Other guy: well I hate spelling so probably ack! Knowledge!
the best joke ever
I smashed the back of my head into my bed 😂😂😂
I don't get it
it was so good i was in shock but i should expect it from kurtis
The “Why are you filling up your car?” “I’m out of gas!” exchange has the same energy as when someone asked my mom what she’d be doing on December 21 2012 for the end of the world, and her response was “Celebrating my son’s birthday, because IT’S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD!”
Can we all give my mom a round of applause?
History video said one of the three creators of ibm found y2k in the mid 60s and pointed it out. And they all continue to do nothing. The adults who were afraid of Y2K are just people who figured out how to use a computer when Facebook came out. If at all
dude with his most 2000s chill ever responded "outta gas" as casual as his lack of fear is my spirit animal from now on
@soinu foig what.
@@shrubgrass what'd they say?
@@squiid4731 your pfp sent me lmfao
I don't even watch Ted nivision but he looks exactly like him it weird
'Why are you filling up your car?"
"Outta Gas"
Took me out
If I were that reporter I would never get over it. I'd stay up at night thinking about how I asked that question on tv.
@@Maialeen she’s probably sitting in her bed right now staring blankly at a wall. i’d never forgive myself tbh
SAMEEEE
“Are you filling up your car with gas because of the soon to be fall of all technology?”
“Why are you buying bottled water?”
“Life”
I had a college job at a call center for Bank of America. For about 6 months they had a number for people to call for ytk. They got me. Weird time in my life
Kurtis is literally 18 during 2012 lmao made me question our age gap
Bit sus that Kurtis is going to several places where marriage between cousins is legal 🗿🤨
Self report for knowing
WHY DO YOU KNOW THIS
Kinda sus you know this...
It’s all adding up
The truth has finally come out 😟
“the last stand mixer” was like an snl level sketch dude holy shit
Yes!!!! 👏👏
Right? And I just came from Drew's SNL video where he said that some RUclipsr skits are better than some SNL skits and I immediately thought of Kurtis
@@ashleysheree7057 same lmao
That's not saying much.... It's SNL
@@ashleysheree7057 yO I JUST CAME FROM THERE TOO
I was born in 1998 so I don’t remember Y2K but I do remember 2012 and it was absolutely hilarious being in English class as a freshman and us watching the clock as it ticked past the minute the world was supposed to end
kurtis with a mustache and kurtis without one are two entirely different people. prove me wrong.
can we all just appreciate how the universe came together specifically so Kurtis could make the best y2k joke of all time
Yes we can.
we need to stop this comment at 2000 likes
Thousandth like congrats dude
I was proud of myself because I thought of the joke the moment I saw that 😆 I would have lost my mind if he missed it. 👏 His pun detector never fails though!
Maybe the only possible y2k joke in the world indeed
I’m disappointed that Kurtis didn’t make a “mixer? I hardly know her” joke
1.2 k likes yet no replies
well there's two now

@@breannaliszak1763 I like that multiple people liked that
My aunt had a Y2K party, My cuz and i went at midnight and shut off the fuse box & ooooh do i remember the sounds of peace and laughter that did not come out of that house at all. lmao 🤣 🤣
no cuz that why 2 k was literally the best joke ive ever heard like it was perfect
y2k can never be not funny, it’s like the early, “a.i. turning against humanity” scare
@Joshua Roehl Lol what’s with the youtube link?
HELP MY!!! My muscles are too big! I am a big tall man and my muscles are even BIGGER! I use them to get views but they HURT so much!!! Because they are heavy. Do you have any advice, dear ar
I forgot Y2K was like a thing and i was like ?people have to prepare for the guy who made that one song??? what did he do?
Except that it was actually a legitimate problem that a lot of people did a lot of work to fix. The only reason it wasn't a huge disaster is because it was actually taken seriously by businesses and governments.
@@MathewWalls Yeah, you can tell who was there and who wasn’t. And they think covid presented supply chain issues, uncertainty and hoarding. 🙄 The whole world held its breath at 11:59:59 in each region. The. Whole. World.
So the morals here are:
• Keep two liters of water hidden around your house.
• Just because something says food on it doesn't mean it is food.
• In case of emergency, threaten and/or beg your doctor for more prescription meds.
• Women can't grasp the concept of time.
• The kids were Adam and Eve the whole time.
Why doesn't this comment have more likes?

Not enough ppl read and get here? I love it.

literally can’t believe you missed the opportunity to say ‘we can’t whisk it’ during that movie trailer.
9:52 I truly thought this was gonna break into “mmm whatcha say”

@@ceoofbananaco.9960 I watched the video alone and laughed at that part alone. Then I saw BooMia's comment and I was like haha I love laughing with other people about this part. And if you still think it's dumb to do that in the comment section then come up with something funnier than what you hate instead of just hating it.
@@chlojo1231 ty I second this! Thanks for the comment BooMia :)
knowing that there were probably so many people who missed out on celebrating the MILLENIUM, a literal once in every 10 lifetimes event, because they were too busy worrying about a couple zeroes on computers is insane
