Memes Throughout the ages episode 298: Ain't Nobody Got Time For That
78m 4s
The meme "Ain’t nobody got time for that" originated in a 2012 Oklahoma City news interview where resident Sweet Brown described her panicked reaction to discovering her apartment building was on fire. She famously said the phrase while running out without shoes, capturing a moment of genuine, human chaos. The clip went viral on YouTube, gaining over a million views within days and spreading across major media outlets. It became a symbol of early internet culture, where authenticity and real-life moments resonated more than artificial satire. Sweet Brown later filed a copyright lawsuit against Apple and others for using her likeness in a music remix, though the case was dismissed. The meme is now recognized as a classic example of internet humor — simple, relatable, and rooted in everyday human experience — proving that powerful, lasting memes don’t require complex editing or irony. Its enduring popularity highlights a shift in online culture: from over-satirized content to genuine, unfiltered human moments.

are born in a plane what are you gonna do so if I if I'm clear my throat a few times my I think I'm getting sick again so that's great I've already I'm like already stuff in someone at my school got me sick on the first dude are we serious like it's not like it's not like I can't go to school bad but like my nose is very obviously stuff what people are so I was about to say they say the effort are so bad ours ours I don't know what I'm trying to say they're so yeah on Siri I'm sanitary unwashed plebians they go the same place as me yeah that's probably how I just describe it anyway um to the actual meme here ain't nobody got time for that what is this meme now this is a little a little bit of niche information for me here so sweet brown is um the the pseudonym what's this what is a pseudonym a pseudonym a pseudonym I'm totally not looking up right now is a fake name that a person uses instead of their real man pseudonym sounds like pseudo sonic yes pseudonym exactly it's a it's an alias you could say used by Kimberly Wilkins who is in or was at the time we can't be too sure now in Oklahoma City resident who was interviewed by her local news station which was K4 news which is channel 4 after evacuating from her apartment building that was set on fire now um when she was she was talking about the thing um she said ain't nobody got time for that I guess I don't know hold on I I've I guess it's not I guess it's not maybe was just like on the news instead ain't nobody got time for that in a funny way and she became popular did she say that because she was being interviewed about the I don't know maybe what is it they're like there's an entire interview so probably yeah probably the origins it's gonna stay something I'd hope so because I'm kind of larping here all I know is ain't nobody got time for that I think that's what a majority of you also don't forget remember I get you kids oh yeah because there are wording everybody out here that that guy was also on a on a music review no that dude was cool that was a guy that was a guy yes did you not why is it like a big there is a voice is very obviously a man he's like he's like a big fat black dude he's not fat he was skinny was he I don't yeah I'm thinking of a different video okay I thought for a long that was a woman I mean it kind of does look like he has a bra on I think it's just like a like his voice like he just has a higher pitched voice sounded like a guy I'm thinking sorry I was thinking of a different video what's the um there's another one that's similar to this it's um hold up yeah that one yeah that's what you're thinking yeah okay yeah that's the one I was thinking oh sorry sorry I'm larping here so anyway people would post this is a huge reaction image a lot of people love using this is a gift in various different discord servers and messages because I mean that's where you use gifts typically of the older variety of people yeah you're not really gonna see someone younger using this gift because people who are younger now in the use gifts it's like um I don't know it's a nothing burger um but yeah that's the that's the the meme she's um in the video she is I believe in front of the building it's obviously the building that got burnt you can it can very much it's a chart of the mountain ignited building um so yeah she's in front of the building that got lit on fire or in back it kind of looks like the back of a building um and she's uh she's talking she's talking to the camera she's like ain't nobody got time for that yeah that's the meme alright so uh we'll play the uh the audio right now even though I'm sure you you know even though you've probably already heard it we'll play it here one resident describes her horrifying experience when she first realized the complex was on fire well I woke up to go give me a cold pot then I thought somebody was barbecuing I said oh lord Jesus is a fire then I ran out I didn't grab no shoes and none Jesus ran for my life and then the smoke got me I got drunk guy this anybody got time for that yeah that's that's the thing is that's the meme I mean, I've already known this, but. I feel like memes are just so much simpler, like now it has to be like I Like just just some random clip and then that's like some AI stuff to it. My piece. Okay. I would be I used to be a pretty big fan of The AI lasers, but you know tight Sorry, oh, I'm having like an anger. We are all a place kind of tired of them Yeah, it's getting a little repetitive now Takes What are you quoting Supposed to be a thing from American dad, but somebody did that AI thing to it. Yeah, it's funny when we did it Yeah, that was funny because but but there's a that was funny because it was like a You know we did it. So it was funny The joke is it's funny because it's stupid, but the I just like It's just starting to get a little repetitive. It's in my opinion. It's become kind of like like Even like it's for its satire of like like boy Reddit humor, but it feels like it's becoming Reddit you can't you can't use satire so many times That's why I'm like I'm kind of done with satire stuff. I Feel like I don't want actual jokes back. I think that's where we're we're starting to go because like look at um the other Cavaliers that's an actual meme Yeah, yeah, that's and that doesn't mean that actually does have makes sense to it depending on the context Like there's no satire there and like the um the whipping up whipping up blank in a kettle like that's not That's not satire. That's the actual video itself Just different versions of it. So I think we're starting to get away from The era where everything has to be satire to be funny and we're actually making jokes again Yeah Well, yeah, Jesus Christ anyway Um Yeah, I agree with what BCA said this this was during the the era of the internet where where like normal human interactions and things that were just naturally funny Were memes It wasn't just like over the top thing where you have to like edit a bunch of stuff together or do this or do that or try and be ironic or And stuff like that It's just a normal news interview. That was funny. That's a meme Just taking like any like Lifer of some sorts from like a movie TV show and then putting in some sort of like context to it with the clip that would make it funny as well Yeah, that was well that would make a good meme. That's what I think a good meme. You're just saying what memes are Whatever me with a name Anyway bca Yeah, can you tell us the origin of this meme where it came from all That jazz, you know, yeah, this is really short on the morning of April 7th, 2012 a three alarm fire broke out at an Oklahoma city apartment complex in Oklahoma Leaving yeah, I wonder where that happens guys leaving one person hospitalized from smoke inhalation in five units damage The local station in K-4 news channel four was among the first to arrive at the scene an interview and during an interview one of the Displace residents sweet brown during the interview She stated she had woken up to get a cold pop when she thought someone was grilling before she realized there was a fire Brad, but if you were in an apartment in small smoke, would you think someone was grilling? No, I think oh my god the apartments on fire. Yeah Also, it would be really dumb to have a grill that is life tip for you If you ever buy a grill or you at your house have a grill on your porch or near your house move it far away from your house Yeah, those things blow up I I have one like right outside my house probably not a smart idea on I wouldn't deck Yeah, that's yeah, wow Well, he's wrong, you know Get put it there. Yeah, it was if it happens. It happens Know at some point because the the things have like gas canister is below them and It takes one one little small fire and can move he wants to get a Um a gas oven, but I'm like really against that They're just like sounds bad. Oh, yeah, cuz they can like blow up. Yeah Yeah, let's put a let's put a huge Yeah, yeah, I don't want either of those Just like a just like a huge ticking time bomb right in my kitchen. That's exactly what I want And uh, yeah, so she she then realized oh, yeah, there's a fire and she proceeded to run out of the apartment without she was on Describing the heavy presence of smoke from the fire and she uttered ain't nobody got time for that Which became one of the most memorable lines and I'm gonna listen to the interview really quick to See what she's saying this I bet she's saying something in relation to she didn't have time to put our shoes Me let me see you that would make sense Yeah, yeah, so she's she's saying it in reference to not grabbing her shoes Well Sorry, I was just about to say like actually nothing I was about to say a sneaker's o-tool would never do that The cook first uploaded was first uploaded to youtube by k4 employee ten malleve I bet I budgeted that so bad. I bet it's like malleable or something on the same day However, another version uploaded by youtuber lucas mar on April 9th became the most shared version of today Getting over one million views and over 109,000 Facebook shares within 48 hours I think this is one of the first times we have ever seen Facebook shares Mentioned and I know your mean thing. Yeah, we never This is so old and Facebook used to be one of the top. Yeah, it still is one of the top, but like one of the most famous Platforms for social media. We never really talk about Facebook a lot But like this is yeah, because we we talk about usually like either coven error slightly pre-COVID and then a recent stuff. We haven't done a ton of older stuff. Yeah, we need this try and start doing that We need to try start doing that. Yeah, or sure Yeah, we should at least like older ones that are worth talking about. Yeah I agree Yeah, so that's the origin All right, if 41 second clip uh, if this happened today, do you think she would have been like hawk to uh, like she would have gotten super famous Do you even think this would have gotten clipped? Honestly, I'm not sure just because there's like Think about how many interviews are exactly like this or like yeah Maybe oh my god What will happen? So I just opened k4 Oklahoma news for their their youtube channel and I see a video posted 50 minutes with no views A video posted 19 minutes with nine views and a video posted 20 minutes ago Jonathan dilly arrested on seven counts of our word How did you get away with seven? Oh, okay, well, that's a huge difference there. Yeah, don't falsely accuse him now Yeah, allegedly How did he get away with six? I don't know You thought after after the first one. Maybe they'd be a little suspicious of him if I get well Maybe he did them all one after another, but popular and we got a popular Six is crazy though. That's like a kill streak Oh, yeah, so they individually posted the the clip of ain't nobody got time for that I think after it started getting a little popular Dude, I need to I need to just talk about this really quick. I'm so tired of getting this like Just poor child's youtube channel in these stupid ads because it's very obviously his father running these Bobby's adventures AI Uh you just post videos of his child named bobby doing stuff and then puts AI everywhere and like makes him like Pillai on like hover bikes and stuff This kid is going to hate his father when he grows up This um Like could you imagine your entire life being like put on youtube and not only that Your AI until like kingdom come I'm here.
They get like really bad views too. Yeah, it's like a hundred something. Like, come on man. I became a Thor in the arcade where we lose if he A.I. is this or not. Yeah, I'm sure he won't do that. Okay, yeah, he A.I. is it and he becomes Thor. He's playing A.I. music too. It's like the whole show. And then fireworks, the show of the socks. What? What do you mean? I could not imagine being this child. That would be so upset. It's like, it was like evil FGTV. Try to. He commented on a flamingo video. Oh, no, you don't know about the drama that happens when the nothing burns, that nothing burns a drama. Yeah, I've kind of heard about it. It's like he said he said something about FGTV dirty supporting Trump and then he went and commented on his videos, like, hey Alberto, and then I'm in the rest of the comment. And he got me to put him so much he deleted the comment. Why do you? Why do you get mad? Because he felt attacked, I guess, even though he did do that. For what? It's not even like he said, like, any he said, like, all of it. It really wasn't that bad. Like, I was watching the video and I'm like, well, he got mad over this and kind of just like, nothing is a very obvious joke. I don't even like to think about dirty anymore because it would make me sad to like, to like, to like think of him as the same person, you know, yeah, fall from grace. Anyway, super mega man 10 bless you, I caught well, potato, you said the wrong thing. I'm so this was to say God Ram, stop being nice to me. What other night? What are you talking about? What is going on? And can you tell us how this means as when I was going to say wake up? Are you talking me to wake up? Yes, earth to run HGM hello. Okay, well, okay, first of all, I was going to say I was waiting for mega man to say yes and then I was going to say the thing that he didn't. We have a gas leak in your house, maybe, wait, can you hear me? Yeah. So, okay, are you like gas lading me right now? Yeah, you have a gas leak, uh, okay, I kill you, uh, kind of, I never say, yes, kindly and friendly. Yes, you had, I swear to, well, you say it's a prize, something, you usually just say super mega man 10. Oh, you know, you know, you know, you know, okay, where is where is, all right, super mega man 10. Can you please tell us how this meme spread? Gladly. The video was reposted on posh.o on April 10th and e-bombs world of the following day. New sites, including hyper vocal, long island press, and WCSH Portland, as well as culture sites, hip-hop, wired, gocker, and Buzzfeed, we reported on the video between April 10th and April 11th on August 23rd, Boston radio station, WAAF, released a ringtone feature, released a ringtone feature in the catchphrase from the interview. Do you think she got any money from this? No, follow the interview right here on April 12th, NBC conducted a follow up interview with both sweet brown and her son, who were apparently shot by the amount of YouTube views her original news report had received. The interview appeared on MSNBC the same day. On April 13th, Lucas Murr, Mark, who uploaded the original new clip four days prior, found sweet brown via her son. He brought her four cases royal crown cola, which sweet brown responded, "I really got the time for this copyright lawsuit." On March 9th, 2013, Oklahoma Daily newspaper News OK reported that Kimberly Wilkins has filed a federal copyright infragment lawsuit and a compensation of 15 million against Apple Inc. Seattle, Seattle based program, the Bob River show and a number of other parties for unauthorized views of her likely likeness for commercial purposes. According to the article Wilkins filed her first complaint against "I got brown, just brown and shining." A remix based on audio samples from her K4 News interview clip, which became available for purchase via Apple's iTunes store in April 2012. While the song has been since taken down from iTunes, the suit has since moved to the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma in remains pending. Well, do you think it's still pending to this day? Let's see. What's the case called? Do we? I don't know. Probably Kimberly's something. Just look up, "I have bronchitis," whatever. "LTG suicide stream in two days." "I have bronchitis versus the United States of America." Anyway, if you really think about it, Hawk 2 really wasn't who different from what has already happened in the world. The difference with Hawk 2 wasn't funny, and this was amusing. Yeah, this is true, because they're both interviews. I still have a few other views. What? Sorry, I'll stop reading chat now, what were you saying, room? Oh yeah, comparing them. I'm trying to think of what to say. It really isn't too different, because this was just a random local news channel. It's really not. And then the guy who got Hawk 2 was just some random club interview person. It's really funny. He got no fame at all from this. That's so funny. Hey, that's my shoulder. It's my shoulder really coming out. Hold on. Reptuch manage to find the lawsuit. I'm trying to see if I can find it. Okay, so apparently it was settled in 2013? Lossu pendant, hold on, let me see here. Okay, no, apparently it was dismissed without prejudice. Dude, she should have won. I hate when people use people that just so happen to get famous from memes, like for advertising without their permission. Yeah. And then they're like, "Why are you suing us like when you sue them for using their likeness?" Yeah, because you said something funny right now. So, now imagine someone took that and got like 10,000 views on a YouTube video and then started pumping out merch of it. I'd want to sue them just for fun because I can. Yeah, but they're putting out merch of it. Yeah, I don't really care, I just want them to not be happy, so I'm going to sue them. Think of all of the sunset saga money. Okay, that's why I'm going to sue them. Okay. I'm going to take the money from them.
that. Okay sorry I read chat I read chat that's fine. I am deleting that. Anyway I'm trying to find like if she got lawsuit what's the word lawsuit settlement. That's a good one. What what happened? I think it what happened at the end of the Kimberly Wilkins the only name the only reason I'm remembering her last name is because the Wilkins the Wilkins from Nick Cheesy. Can you remember? I don't remember. Okay so apparently it was just dismissed and I think that was it. It was removed it was taken down though which that might have just been because they didn't want to deal with the backlash. But the the court case itself was dismissed so nothing came of that. Anyway before we give our thoughts on the on the meme. Do we have anything we want to add to it? It's all funny and then hard to. No I got nothing. And neither do I. Okay. I think it's pretty good. Very classic I still quote it from time to time. Yeah it's all right. It is all right. That's all you ever have to say. Oh it's all right. Maybe if you guys stop picking all right memes I'll say something more. Oh what's verity? What's verity? What's verity? What's verity? It's good or it's all right or it's funny. I will I'd say that it is a meme that encapsulates that era of the internet where instead of having to make something overly complicated to be funny and to force something to be funny or to just last for two weeks it's a meme that stands on its own that can go on and still be entertaining and meaningful years later because it's something so simple and so human as an interview because it's an interview. It's a it's a natural everyday normal thing which is inherently funny because it's a part of human culture. Yeah. Yes. Yeah but it's all right. You know what dude. You know what? You know what? It's it's it's this meme is pretty good because people would make remixes out of it. If you make song remixes and that was a huge popular thing back in the olden days of YouTube where sound or song remixes you like using the clip. Remember Sparta remixes that is literally that but yeah. Should we play that here? So remixes? No not the Sparta. Don't do it just in case because I don't know if it's obvious. Oh okay. That's a good idea. But one of the most famous like this isn't this isn't ain't nobody got time for that but the the house intruder though it like he's breaking through your windows that just natural people. That was a sound that was a sorry mix of of another interview. Yeah. Of a guy doing things I cannot say. Well yeah it's it's a staple of classic internet culture and it's it's cool that was a thing. Now was that so hard to say? No. Okay. Okay. Mega man. Now it's your turn. Oh no no no no. Look at this one. You don't and you don't got to say anything. It's okay. Yeah. You actually do. We're not gonna kick those. What do you know from? Did you hear that? No I didn't. What do you say? I ain't got no time for that. Ooh. See I because he doesn't have time. He's got no time. He's got no time. He's got no time. Yeah. That's kind of niche. Oh what is it? Well you know what I mean. Yeah name another finale for a song. I hope stop. Well stop. Anyway. See you all in the meme games. Goodbye. Goodbye. Hello everyone and welcome to the meme games. The part of the show where we play games based on a subset of episodes before RepTGM would like to go in front of them.

This is actually a perfect one for this. Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to put it in a sentence. How do we play this game in a sentence? What we must do is we must take the meme that we just did which is ain't nobody got time for that and we need to put it in a sentence. Whoever has the best sentence out of the three of us gets a point they win the meme games. All that. That's right. We have a pigeon wheel. We call it the email that has all three of our names on it. We are going to be spinning it. See those first second and third in today's meme games. Let's spin it again. Not again. Let's spend a see those first. It was language. Trump is at all massive. Is that 2023? 2024 I think. Mega Man is going first in today's meme games. Let's spin it again and see it goes second. Did we do skimpy Biden? No he should have. Skimpy Biden. Jo Jo Jo. Skimpy Biden. Skimpy Biden. Skimpy Biden. Red you're going second and the stage means it means I'm going last. Unfortunately it's over ready. Yeah. Whoa. What do you mean you can guess? I guess. I don't know. Every night. Yeah. I'm every night doing this. Mega Man. I'm sorry. Mega Man is not doing it every night. We've spent every night at nails so we know what we're talking about. It is niche. That's pretty niche. Anyway. Do you use first? I do not pay attention at all. Mega Man is going first. Three, two, one, put it in a sentence. Mega Man you're going first. Okay. Put it in a sentence. Mega Man. I'm trying to think here. Actually I said the perfect came from putting it in a sentence because it's literally like a sentence. We do really good at it. Thank you. I need a think of mine. Oh god. It's okay. Got it. Walked. Where would you like to steal? It's still what I said. I've gotten breeze. Got any threes? Go fish. Well, like go upload. I've suffered one year ago, buddy. Hey. Okay. Listen. We would do the video if I ever get the flush. What is the status? I don't.

Peter since I'm going to I'll ask my dad tomorrow What I keep forgetting but I don't I haven't been forgetting about the video But I've been forgetting that we need mr. Peterson to do the video Uh-huh. I also um, I do really want to redo the the music video I want to make like a full music video for um the viral song. I I like the idea of remaking Training to buskies, but at the same time I don't because I don't want it to like make the original version like I don't know obsolete But yeah, I'm sure we'll do the music video Have you have you not been feeding him oh? Oh, sorry Come on man What are you gonna do? Let him go wouldn't it be funny if like this whole time we weren't joking We do actually have some dude named Julius locked in our basement.

No You know you like recently did I did yeah, we'll do another one soon We Guys, I'm gonna save you guys in our TTA. Let's be in space from south. It's horrible Yeah, it was awful like it's it's fundamentally it was a bad movie like it's not even just like actually the worst thing I think I have ever seen I I'm honestly gonna agree with you on that. It's literally it fundamentally this doesn't have anything to do with the actual content itself Like the characters and the story of anything. It is fundamentally a bad movie It doesn't do anything that a movie should do. It doesn't set up the world. It doesn't set up the characters It doesn't even set up the story properly. It just does things things happen They're like there's like a one scene that goes on for five minutes where it's in the main characters head of her like fighting these demons for some reason But like that never does anything. It's it's would it's a pointless movie that does nothing Like it looks Terrible there's a waste of my time, but we had fun The straightway millions for the best part of the movie They were they weren't even that funny. It's just like compared to everything else. They were so much better. Yeah Yeah, mega man, let's talk. Let's it's time to have a conversation Let's have a conversation about clopping mega man. No It's called clopping mega man Um, I don't know what's a what's what's the worst Interaction you've had at your job.

Oh, no That's horrible wait. I have to fight people that are good No, I got to fight real people Gents 70% of Fortnite lobbies now are bots. You're originally at the beginning is 35% I hate this game That's so stupid. That's actually that's actually one of the reasons I don't want to spend money on the game I don't want to buy stuff and then fight bots Listen, I know it was the game was harder when there were no bots But it was more fun because like winning head meaning Yeah, what I meant something I feel like I need to play reload or OG even OG's full of bots now and Reload started getting full of bots. I have to play like ranked and stuff to fight real people Like remember when remember when they they brought back OG again Yeah, I know we're not 100% real people and we were getting our butts kicked. It was fun though. It was scary I got I got no G win the day before they changed it back so That's cool. You're real don't you? It's like it's a good thing, but like for some players like me that don't want to be constantly be doing that all the time Okay, but yeah, but how are you doing a better at the game? If you're just fighting robots that barely know how to shoot straight. I'm getting better I think there's it sucks This this is why if I spend money on fortnight, it'll be the last ten dollars.
