History YMMV / BarneyBunch

** Betty [=DeVille=] is openly gay in the ''Rugrats'' [[WesternAnimation/Rugrats2021 reboot]], essentially making the Betty Bunch canon.

* HilariousInHindsight: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hNgUWNt6fw This]] GagDub of WebVideo/{{Fred}} being gay is silly to watch now that Lucas Cruikshank has come out as gay.

* CantUnHearIt: In non-Barney Bunch videos with Microsoft Sam, such as ''Machinima/GuardsNRetards'' or the infamous "My [=ROFLcopter=]" video, it's hard not to hear the "soi soi soi soi soi soi" as the sound of ejaculation. Hell, one can't hear the voice itself without thinking of Drew Pickles.

** The concept of cartoon characters as homosexual and violent misogynistic rapists is homophobic at its core, but is done in such a ridiculous and over-the-top fashion that it falls into this trope instead.

** Autistics, especially with the terminated users [=DrewPicklesIsSwell1957=] and [=Strawhatpirate1991isback=] (which has led many to speculate they're the same person, though the former denied this at least twice). Some users, like with fetish artists, claim that trolling them is ForGreatJustice given that many of the people on the internet they view as assholes or "[=lolcows=]" have the disorder - but it's even more debatable.

** [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Every. Single. "Commentary". Video]] made by the now-terminated [=DrewPicklesisSwell1957=]. He was practically limbo dancing using the line as a limbo pole. He made [[PointAndLaughShow "look at this loser" rant videos]] out of so-called "nostalgiatards", fanboys of WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic, WebVideo/PhantomStrider, and WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter, [=DeviantArt=] fetish artists, and anybody he didn't like (especially if they have autism) and all while encouraging people to troll them.

* FandomRivalry:
** The Singonia subsection of the community and the ''Music/{{Vocaloid}}'' fandom after some members of the latter thought Singonia songs were Vocaloid songs.

** Many Barney Bunch video makers seem to really hate [[UsefulNotes/{{Feminism}} feminists]] and left-wingers, so expect Drew [[PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad to rant about left-wing topics]] in the videos. Unfortunately, this causes some videos to go beyond CrossesTheLineTwice and into borderline cyberbullying, particularly if the author has a ''genuine'' dislike for whatever group/cause/issue is being targeted in the video (even including homosexuals, depending on how much irony was intended when using the Barney Bunch's core premise). Even some of those who [[EveryoneHasStandards usually support the author's views]] find this to be [[DontShootTheMessage pretty off-putting]].

** Whether or not Stu Pickles is supposed to be a flaming homosexual or a bisexual foot fetishist, but many users question the very existence of this debate, arguing Stu is a flaming homosexual through and through; on one of Blood's videos, somebody attempted to push the bisexual Stu idea, in which Blood told him to simply 'fuck off' in a since-deleted reply. Every known Stu Pickles video during the late 2010s portrays him as flat out gay.

** The Blood-style videos (the ones with just one image of a character and with titles like "DREW PICKLES IS A REALLY GAY GAY GAY MAN!") are viewed by some as having grown tiresome, however this hasn't stopped it from essentially becoming the predominant mode of Barney Bunch videos throughout the mid-late 2010s.
** Someone [[https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCHGQwpx8LCdsTIgjXG4hz7A/discussion actually commented]] on [=DrewPicklesiswell1957=]'s Discussion board that his Drew Pickles commentary videos are this.

** Blood On The Dance Floor, a scene-electronica band from Florida, are so hated that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6bCv2t7SGs a video]] was made in which they audition for the Barney Bunch and are ''rejected.''

* SoBadItsGood: No one will admit that the videos are skillfully made, but one's opinion of them depends on one's sense of humor. The self-aware humor in some later videos definitely helps. The reaction on [=VidLii=] throughout the middle of 2019, though minor however seemed to fall into DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible.

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: Rape lets you get your way.

** Drew Pickles' claim that Ronald [=McDonald=] is better known as the Penis Clown.

* HarsherInHindsight: Some more recent Wiggles videos involve them having heart attacks from eating too much shit. Greg Page nearly died via cardiac arrest during an original members (Greg, Anthony, Murray, and Jeff, who are usually depicted in BB videos) reunion gig for Australian bushfire relief.

* FridgeBrilliance: The Quaker Queer was added in 2009, a seemingly random character - unless you remember how in ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'', Chuckie often mentioned his fear of "the guy on the oatmeal box." This was covered in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XiAnA2trzE this video]] and furthered upon in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qc3BV5VZjW8 this one]].

** Some people's reaction to "Drew Pickles Goes To" videos. In fact with new users, it's seen an obvious decline in quality, being completely usurped by videos about the Wiggles, WesternAnimation/Doug Funnie/Skeeter Valentine, Ronald [=McDonald=] and others.

** There was a huge one over pre and post-2011 videos presumably after the 2011 feud mentioned on the Trivia page. With the advent of Blood-style videos and various influxes of new users, this seems to be no longer the case.

* HilariousInHindsight: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hNgUWNt6fw This]] GagDub of WebVideo/{{Fred}} being gay is silly to watch now that Lucas Cruikshank has come out as a gay icon.

** Some people's reaction to "Drew Pickles Goes To" videos.

* MemeticMutation: The main page's photo of Drew became quite the meme after it's usage in Barney Bunch videos, however the community has barely crossed over with the general meme landscape.
* MoralEventHorizon: Obviously given the context of these videos, this is very common, but in mid-late 2010s videos, characters cross this line literally all the time with no inhibitions or remorse, ESPECIALLY The Wiggles.

* SoBadItsGood: No one will admit that the videos are skillfully made, but one's opinion of them depends on one's sense of humor. The self-aware humor in some later videos definitely helps. The reaction on [=VidLii=], though minor however seems to fall into DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Some classic video makers tend to dislike new videos, but this seems to be going away.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' character Drew Pickles goes from Angelica Pickles' doting and well-intentioned father who is HappilyMarried to Charlotte Pickles to a DepravedHomosexual who likes to rape men and beat women to death.
