Bubb Rubb was originally an offline sensation several years ago, following a news interview with him on his 'whistle tips', which were a local nuisance due to the extremely loud screeching sounds they produced. When asked about these devices, he responded with "The whistles go WOO!". This, along with several other quotes by Bubb Rubb and his assistant Lil Sis became a hit both online and offline. eBaum's World in particular was capitalising on the fad, hosting Photoshops, remixes and even a soundboard people had created based on the Bubb Rubb incident. A few YTMNDs were also made, mainly classic-style captures of clips from the interview.
For whatever reason, Bubb Rubb became a fad on YTMND in 2007, following several high-quality parodies, which in turn led to more spinoffs and remixes on YTMND. One recent parody, Zelda: The Bubb Rubb of Time, is now the 4th highest rated YTMND ever, the pinnacle of Bubb Rubb's recent influence on the site. Shortly after these sites were created, Bubb Rubb's popularity once again faded. However, there were enough parodies created during this short period to consider Bubb Rubb as a 'true' fad, years after its popularity elsewhere.
