Backstreet Boys Are Gay[edit]

Non-notable flash movie and alleged internet fad. Possibly even speediable as attack page. Sandstein 05:31, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can confirm that it indeed was an internet fad about five years ago, but only from memory, not from reliable sources. Kusma (討論) 05:34, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- According to List of songs by "Weird Al" Yankovic, this song (titled "Which Backstreet Boy is Gay?") is misattributed to Weird Al but really by "The Morning Show at Z100 Portland". "Which Backstreet Boy is gay" gets 107,000 Google hits, which is more than what "The last page of the Internet" has, which has a Wikipedia entry. I would still like to see some sources.

Redirect to internet phenomenon. The more notable Miko Miko Nurse does. Royboy crashfan 06:03, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Very famous in Oxford, London, Belfast, Leicester and many other places on my email list of 2000, but I don't expect you youngsters remember 56kbps modems and 4GB hard drives, when Flash 3.0 was the pinnacle of compressed animation. I still have a copy of the file, and it is still amusing. I might post it somewhere for all to see. Some of the fads I've heard of, some I haven't; I'd never heard of Miko Miko Nurse and for some reason, still know nothing about it. Keep the Which Back Street Boy is Gay article and I'll tidy it up myself. --die Baumfabrik 06:41, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

delete and/or redirect. The fad-of-the-week is not encyclopedia material. Ned Wilbury 16:10, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
