WWWhat in the World Wide Web

I have two younger brothers. That’s not the mystery, though. Between 1995 and 1996, there was a thing they would do, and that’s the mystery: On Sunday mornings, we would all watch Nicktoons. The brothers (let’s call them Matt and Dan) were at the age where they fought all the time, and also trolled each other all the time. One of Dan’s greatest trolls would happen during a certain commercial that aired in between cartoons, now lost to the sands of time (the mystery). At a certain point in this certain commercial, Dan would yell this:

“OTT!”

That was weird enough. But as the weeks progressed, Matt would get anxious as soon as the commercial started, and grow more agitated until the moment of truth (and mystery).

Matt: “don’t do it, don’t do it, don’t do it…”,
Dan: “OTT!”
Matt: “DANG IT!”
Dan: trollface.gif

But now, many years later, none of us can remember what started it all. Just the “OTT!”

Since I will probably never be able to afford a speedlite*, I tried a much cheaper solution: using a piece of white paper bounce the built-in flash off the ceiling. My first test subject was the impossible-to-photograph Woody:
