History Heartwarming / StuartAshen

* In his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_B4xETR65rM 2016 Easter special,]] he actually starts to be endeared by the chick money box he originally bought as tat, going so far as to put it off safely to the side and keeping the [[spoiler: literally rotten]] candy away from it, stroking it "like a hound" and threatening the [[spoiler:literally rotten]] candy if they get near it again while declaring it under his protection.

* His laughing at the antenna on the fake iPhone 5. It's one of the few cases when his laughter was entirely natural, it cements his JustForFun/OneOfUs status.
* Ashens and the Silver Skull exchanging gifts in "Poundland is the Best Thing About Christmas". It's because you keep expecting a subversive punchline but it never happens.

** This extends to pretty much any time something makes him break-down into legitimately happy laughter.

* His comments on how disgusting it is that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XNJM_Kamyg this thing]] (a [[ShoddyKnockoffProduct POPStation]] based on the events of 9/11) should exist (heartwarming in a similar way to the Peter Popoff example above).
** He seems particularly outraged both at the repeated use of images from the attack on both the packaging and the game (commenting on how it's a picture of people's friends and loved ones dying), and at just how lazy and obvious an attempt to cash in on a major event it is.

* Most of the stuff he reviews on his channel, unless it's something that he either ''really'' likes or would have bought anyway, usually ends up being sold on [=eBay=] or donated to local charity shops. After reviewing the Casio Loopy, he revealed that while he didn't personally think much of the console or its games (beyond the stickers it printed out being surprisingly high-quality), it was such a rare and unique item that he donated it to the Cambridge Centre for Computing History.

* For the first time in the history of his channel, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Znmo1dMXerc Stuart digs through an Estonian military ration]] and finds that not only is the food of surprisingly high quality, ''he enjoys everything in the ration.'' Even the porridge, which he was nervous about from the word go. It's quite nice to see the food gods throw him a bone after all the crap he's eaten on his show.

* During the September Loot Crate, Stuart finds an Alien action figure.

-->'''Stuart:''' ''[Takes a bite, then silence]'' ...oh, my God...''[{{Beat}}]''...it's ''actually quite nice!''

* His fanboyism taking hold as he discovers an AT-AT commander minifigure in the Lego Advent Calender, especially considering all of the prequel junk he had to put up with to that point.

* The way he calls Peter Popoff an "astonishingly vile [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]]" for his exploitation of down on their luck people is oddly heart-warming.
