  • Is it any good?

    3.0
  • Common Sense says

    Instant Internet pop culture. Not for kids.

Why We Rated This iffy for Ages 16–18

The good stuff

  • Educational value:

    Some of the animations show a lot of creativity and forethought, although many are offensive.
 

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    If you watch enough of these, you'll see many racial, religious, cultural, and gender groups slurred.
  • Violence:

    Both cartoon and real violence are shown. A realistic snuff film shows a bound woman being shot in the head (is that blood or chocolate syrup?).
  • Sex:

    User-supplied content is sometimes NSFW ("Not Safe for Work").
  • Language:

    Some of the user-supplied content includes vulgarities and hate speech, including the n-word.
  • Consumerism:

    Google ads.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    All three, including a Photoshopped image of Harry Potter drinking a beer alongside Hermione and Ron smoking weed while "How Could This Happen to Me?" plays.

    I rate this title on for age 16 and give it 5.0

    "A must-read book for every 8-year-old"

    Wait, no. :-) This site teaches important internet lessons about internet hazards such as meatspin, goatse, tubgirl, and many others. It might also teach you how to laugh, and how to love (my sites particularly ;-). You could turn the rare viewing of inappropriate content into a teachable moment; I do that for my kids Mr Ross and Tony all the time. Until next time, Dr-L337 is... signing off. :-)

    From an avid YTMND user and author

    As an avid YTMND user I would like to chime in on my thoughts. YTMND encourages creativity by allowing users to create sites. Because YTMND is 100% user created content like youtube or wikipedia YTMND has contents of all maturity levels. The content on YTMND is no better or worse than any public forum with user created content like youtube. In fact much of the content on YTMND are just "mash-ups" or parodies of content from from youtube or the news. To understand the merits of user created content, I highly recommend looking at the YTMND's hall of fame. And as always the best way to know what your kids are looking at on the internet is to browse with them. http://ytmnd.com/users/alphasuede/sites
