Name is derivative of CGP Grey "Humans Need Not Apply" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Pq-S557XQU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Pq-S557XQU

  "X need not apply" is a well-known trope that has historically been used in a discriminatory sense, e.g., "Irish need not apply." "Humans not invited," isn't super derivative of either...

    Well thanks for pointing that out? It's still an excellent video that almost everyone should watch. It's dated, a little, but I am pretty sure it is still going to prove all to true.

      I parsed the comment as 1) "this is not an original idea, here is the genesis" and 2) "look at this cool video." The parent comment was addressing 1 and you are addressing 2.

    Oh yeah it's a "snowclone"
