| − | '''Advice Max''' is a [[forced fad]] in which [[max]] gives pieces of YTMND-related "advice" in a style akin to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYDYRwX2dLw Advice Dog]. These sites almost always require prior knowledge about "insider" YTMND topics to get the joke.
| |

| |
| − | Advice Max sites are typically sarcastic in nature. {{y|advicemax7|Some}} involve max being sarcastic towards YTMND, while {{y|advicemax24|others}} are sarcastic towards max. Some sites are about other users or fad characters and highlight specific characteristics about them.

| − | == History ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Ironically, the Advice Dog meme has roots in YTMND. User TEM006 was the original creator of the image on which the meme is based. In September 2006, he created {{ytmnd|happypup|YTMNHD}}, making YTMND one of the first websites to ever have the image. Nearly two years later, after the "happy dog" image had developed into a 4chan meme, the image resurfaced as {{ytmnd|advicedog|Obey Advice Dog}}. This site was simply a typical Advice Dog image from a meme generator paired with music from the video game We Love Katamari.

| − | The original Advice Max site was a take on this YTMND. Keeping the music, {{ytmnduser|eightbitprodigy}} changed the image to one of max in front of an orange and white background (representative of the website's color scheme at the time). The advice was "CREATE A MOON MAN SITE / FARKKKLE WILL VOTE 5," thereby setting the precedent that most, if not all, of max's advice would be YTMND-related.

| |
| − | Although eightbitprodigy has created over 30 Advice Max sites (a majority of the total sites existing), this should not keep it from being a fad. Indeed, it wouldn't be the [[Lifeguard_Whale|first time]] for a fad to exist under these circumstances. Besides, the Advice Max concept has been applied in different ways by multiple {{y|adviceindian|users}}, and it is a concept recognized by frequent YTMND users. One might also argue that since it is an extension of an existing meme, it shouldn't really be considered a fad. Again, this wouldn't be the [[O_RLY|first time]] for this to happen.
