* CanadaEh:
** Buckley often mentions that he is from Canada, which he claims is essentially the same country as the US. However, some of his videos deal with strictly Canadian topics (e.g. any video concerning his hometown of London, Ontario, the 2011 and 2015 Canadian Federal Elections, the 2011 Canada Post strike, Canadian marriage fraud, Verizon's attempt to enter the Canadian cellular market, Target's failure in Canada, etc).
** Buckley often says that Canadians are a bunch of pussies, especially in sports other than hockey.
** In his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvoin_KQhjc "Tim Hortons' Cup Sizes" video]], Buckley claims that he is not very Canadian. He doesn't follow hockey, hates winter, thinks Music/TheTragicallyHip sucks, and doesn't drink Tim Hortons coffee, all of which, particularly the first and last, he claims may be acts of high treason against Canada.
** While his "Musical Autopsies" usually stick with hit songs or popular artists on the American Hot 100, he discusses a then-Top 10 [[CanadianMusic Canadian song]] by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkdi_7cKFic Serena Ryder]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_content Canadian content law]] in one video. In the same video, Buckley says most Canadian entertainment is terrible, arguing that popular Canadian artists such as Music/JustinBieber, Music/{{Nickelback}}, Music/CelineDion, Music/BryanAdams, and the Music/BarenakedLadies are actually the best Canada can do. He also implies that most Canadian music is amateur work produced in someone's backyard shed, and Canadian radio stations (by law) have to play it, since they can't play Music/{{Rush|Band}} [[AwesomeButImpractical 6 times an hour]].
** In the "CRTC vs Porn" rant, he claims that the CRTC[[note]]Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission[[/note]] preserves Canadian heritage one shitty show and song at a time by acting as the last line of defence against America's vastly superior and more well produced entertainment.
** In the "Buzzfeed Canada vs. White Males" rant, Buckley puts on [[NWordPrivileges an exaggerated Canadian accent]] when Buzzfeed is looking for Canadian writers.

* "Worst Songs of 20xx": Released in mid-December, Buckley discusses the worst songs of the year in question. The 2010 to 2018 lists were presented as traditional top 10 lists, while the lists since 2019 are presented in an "awards show" format, similar to [[UsefulNotes/GoldenRaspberryAward the Razzies]].

** Buckley [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O32TQSvfEM hates YouTube]]'s Content ID system for allowing the owners of copyrighted material to decide whether or not a Content ID claim violates copyright rather than having either [=YouTube=] themselves or an impartial third party review the claim objectively. Buckley states that he has no problem with companies enforcing copyright; however, he ''does'' have a problem when a company illegitimately flags or blocks a video that ''should be'' protected under UsefulNotes/FairUse, specifically his own ''Musical Autopsy'' videos.

* HairTriggerTemper: Buckley gets angry often and rants in his videos about a ''lot'' of things, including: [[https://youtu.be/oBYuRw0fliA entitlement]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWK_wicOTvU requests]] for videos on certain topics, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wv_U9PXCZeg useless comments]]", content thieves, special treatment for celebrities, "first world problems", crowdfunding for-profit projects, modern labor unions, modern society, socially progressive politics and activism, "nice guy" syndrome, people who cheat on their partners, people who deny addiction or glorify drug use, obsessed fandoms, nostalgia for the late 20th century, nationalism, bad music, and bad grammar.

* KarmaHoudini: In "Cyberpunk - No Consequences For Failure?" he notes the depressing reality of the refund rate for VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077 to be, at the highest when you accumulate CDPR and Forbes' own estimates to be a ''' Two Percent''', despite the press and media outlets claiming the game was refunded en-masse. Buckley then says that these numbers show that gamers are apathetic to the situation, and that games can release in an Early Access-like state, and ''still'' sell millions of copies, despite everyone involved ''knowing'' the game is broken.

** In his video, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1Ahqmtof2M "Revisiting The Ten Worst Songs of 2012 (in 2022)"]], he makes fun of several of the artists in the video after looking at what they were doing in the interim. He notably does ''not'' make fun of Music/JustinBieber too much, primarily because he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome (essentially paralysing parts of his face, stopping him from singing), and notes that it's not really how a music career should end for anyone, and that he's not gonna touch that for the sake of a joke; he has standards (His caption read "I'm an asshole, not a fucking asshole!").
