Bayan, he's a dupe, he's Brian originally comes from the famous anecdote about the mother-in-law ("Buried the mother-in-law. Broke two accordion"), which was published in 1999 in the forum of the Car.<url> so often that it has become a well-known and very popular offtopic (network message beyond the predetermined themes of communication). Users became known as the author of "the accordionist" and the joke "accordion." A similar effect was caused by getting this joke on a Joke website.<url>. Pretty quickly the word "Bayan" turned the Internet into a symbol of old jokes, or just the banality akin to the "bearded joke"


Some of the word "Bayan" is regarded as an abbreviation of "Was a I did not know." It was also hypothesized about the origin of the word: "Bayat (to tell) > Bike > Bayan".
Another suggestion regarding the origin of this word as an Internet-MEMA, referred to contemptuously, mocking the meaning of "Bayan" as provincial and antiquated musical instrument.



The effect of using the replica of the "Bayan" is enhanced if it is to make an image of a musical instrument, or similar to it – accordion, if that allow the capabilities of the site. Or, when speaking, to portray the game on a Bayan/accordion.


Accordion will be the April fools joke about untied laces and a white back. Since they are not new and known to almost everyone.
Application examples:
- Bayan. It was a year ago."
- [:|||||||||:] (smiley depicting accordion)
- [:||||\/|||||:] (the same thing, only ripped)
- [:]/\/\/\/\/\/\[:] alternative
- [:}<|><|><|>{:]
- (\__/)
- (='.'=)
- E[:]|||||[:]Z — Bunny-boyanistaya
- (")_(")
Now jokes with the use of MEMA "Bayan" users came up with a sequel on the principle that it's not even the accordion - the harp, it is not even the harp is a flute, etc.


In more rare cases, "Bayan" is used with a different meaning, such as:
medical disposable insulin syringe, aka little red riding hood or insolence;
- battery (cast iron radiator) in the chamber;
- slang for a car Honda Accord;
- machine for fingerprinting;
old Russian or Slavic singer is mentioned in "Word about Igor's regiment";
- weekly music newspaper of the Russian Empire;
the tool Yandex.Direct for banner advertising.
