Transcript:
Caesar: It's the real millennium this time. Think anything's going to happen? Huey: Yeah, right...I'm not falling for that again - not after last year's dud. No terrorist attacks, no rogue nuclear launchings, no massive power outages, no global economic crisis, no new world order. No judgment day, no armageddon. Nothing!!! As a conspiracy theorist, it seriously damaged my credibility...I was owed an alien invasion or an earthquake or something!! Caesar: Say, who started this whole idea that the world would end in 2000, anyway? Huey: Not sure. Prince, I think. Caesar: Boy, I bet he really felt dumb. Huey: Yeah, he needs to stick with the freak-nasty songs and leave the doomsday predictions to someone else...

People to this day fail to understand the hard work that went into preventing the Y2K disaster. Because we succeeded people think it wasn’t a threat. It was.

I prefer to sing it as “Tonight I’m gonna potty like it’s 1999” and then you can bypass the whole doomsday thing altogether
