Stands for "Not Even Doom Music". Apparently, A YTMND was created which featured a rather brutal act of animal cruelty - a .gif of a kitten being placed in a cage, doused with gasoline, and then lit on fire. A YTMND regular, 'Spotz', approved of the site enough to give it 5 stars due to its usage of music from "Doom". Another user, 'titanium-gecko', appalled that anyone would upvote such brutality, proceeded to give 1-star votes to all the sites of those who did. When confronted by Spotz, who stated his reasoning was simply for the featured music, his reply, posted on one of Spotz's sites, was as follows: "Okay Spotz. Since you do not "condone" burning kitten your sites have been 3'D until further notice. Still... nothing justifies 5'ing burning kittens. Not even Doom music." The acronym that this comment produced has since spiraled into an uncontrollable fad which is an amalgam of those who understand the origin and an ever increasing group who have no idea what it means, or do but do not find the fad justified. They have made sites featuring the acronym, elements from past sites (i.e. chapstick, a cat; live, dead, burned or otherwise), completely unrelated elements (scenes from the show 'Lost') or even other fads, mostly to either express their displeasure or to jump on the bandwagon. Some simply like the loop of the Coburn song (from the original site, "http://nedm.ytmnd.com/") which has become the unofficial soundtrack, and desire the full track.
