[[http://www.youtube.com/user/BaratsAndBereta Barats and Bereta]] are an Internet comedy duo who write, act, and post skits on their Youtube channel as well as their own [[http://www.baratsandbereta.com/ Homepage]]. Some of their older, better known works are [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhcA4Ry65FU Mother's Day]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtEp5yc-g3A Auto Insurance]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiXhQUym0fA Flag Makeover]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fad6eZTDikA Douche Off]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvltzwkUEEA Mantage]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5rF_X-8LiI Jesus Pwned U]]. There are also some short series, such as [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAXwaqbRol4 Ad Guys]].
They are probably known most for their usage of MundaneMadeAwesome and NarmCharm as vehicles for their work.

** "F U!" is a video composed of three people flipping off annoying people in the most amazingly over-the-top fashions possible. The first person lets his dog shit in a guy's yard right next to his paper, the second person, a girl, blows a kiss to someone's boyfriend while the girlfriend is walking right next to him, and the third guy drank all his roommate's beers. It must be seen to be truly appreciated.
** "Boston Jury Duty" is one big TakeThat at the New York Yankees. It's a slow burn, but the pay off is so worth it.
** "Hypnosis" ends with one to Music/JustinBieber.
