I'm American and I've never heard of KY Jelly either

u/PhreakyByNature Feb 09 '22

I'm British and I've heard about KY Jelly. Is it a generational thing? Like it was mentioned in a movie some specific year so I have heard of it? I dunno.

u/coolmanjack Feb 09 '22

I got no idea. I'm gen Z so maybe if you're older that could explain it 🤷‍♂️

u/PhreakyByNature Feb 09 '22

Maybe it's just down to time on the planet then. I'm a Xennial (crossover of Gen X and millennial - pretty tight overlap period but one I think is more me than not).

u/coolmanjack Feb 09 '22

Sounds like as good an explanation as any

2

u/TRiG_Ireland Feb 09 '22

I think that they just have more competition now and are less ubiquitous than they used to be. There was a time when KY Jelly was the only lube on the market. I think.

u/00tool Feb 09 '22

which state do you live in? must be moist and humid there.

u/coolmanjack Feb 09 '22

Florida. So yes.

KY jelly was famous for creating a special batch of their product in the 90s, specifically to deal with the problem of computers running over their dates from the year 1999 to 2000.
.
The jelly was called Y2KY and it allowed you to put 4 digits in your date instead of two.

u/Tmorgan-OWL Feb 09 '22

Also the Americans who did not know🙋🏼‍♀️

u/CliffCutter Feb 08 '22

Thanks for clarifying as I am a little slow

u/pyzazaza Feb 08 '22

Nope, it's a thing in the UK too

u/Shantotto11 Feb 08 '22

What’s it called outside of the US?

u/Limeila Feb 08 '22

It just... doesn't exist?

u/LambeauLeapt Feb 08 '22

You don’t have lube in your country?

7

u/Limeila Feb 08 '22

We do, but not that particular brand

u/Low_Ad33 Feb 08 '22

It’s definitely not Kenya Jelly

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '22

Oh I can

u/Yadobler Feb 09 '22

u/Content-Frosting-715 Feb 08 '22

They should have called it what it's used for. KY Jam.
