One of cartoonlover's many icons.
cartoonlover98 is an Irish animator and cartoonist who used to be a fairly popular YouTube Pooper, who specialized in 9/11 jokes, ear rape, and completely destroying childhoods in the most hilarious way possible.
Joined 16 January 2012, he had over 45,000 subscribers, and officially retired from YTP to focus on his animations in the Doodle Toons series. His main account was sadly closed for good in August 2019, and his DeviantArt account was closed in 2022. You can find an archive of the latter here
.
Speaking of which, the tropes present in Doodle Toons can be found here.
Tropes Present:
- Accentuate the Negative: The point of his Nostalgia Critic: cartoonlover98 video.
- all lowercase letters: His comments.
- Author Appeal: He tended to poop things he was a fan of.
- He loved Thomas & Friends as a kid. You are guaranteed to see it in all his poops.
- Bait-and-Switch: One of his Deviantart images, titled GIF: The Squeakquel, has a thumbnail that shows Goldie participating in sexual activity. The image itself, however, shows Jelly Bean waving her arms around and wearing a red sweater.
- Another one of his (lost) Twitter pictures is a preview of "new art" with it showing Jellybean with a white substance on her face and Bellybutton with his hand hanging low. The finalized picture in question was SFW.
- Also delivered with a heavy dose of Lampshade Hanging on how he did this joke a few times already.
- And then again on Christmas Day. Then he actually went through with it it (which was not very work-safe).
- Another one of his (lost) Twitter pictures is a preview of "new art" with it showing Jellybean with a white substance on her face and Bellybutton with his hand hanging low. The finalized picture in question was SFW.
- Bowdlerization:
- Later on, he removed the 9/11 joke from "Spingebill Becomes an Anti-Social", which used actual footage of the moment the South Tower was hit.
- Since the original upload of "You Are Still a Sad, Strange Little Man" was age-restricted, someone uploaded a censored version which is now labeled as "kind of clean".
- One reuploader named StarLightTea removes some racist jokes from the videos, including the ending of "Unfinished Simpsons Poop" where Homer says who you can shoot with his new gun.
- Christmas Special: "Roodog's Electrical Nasal Device"
- Cluster F-Bomb: He LOVES this trope. One example being Percy in "Purzee Inhales Fog":Percy: "Oh, bollocks! That fucking horn is so damn loud. It rattles my fucking arse, and it doesn't even make my motherfucking penis tingle!"
- Creator Breakdown: This picture and especially its description. He seems to be getting better, though...
- Everything's Better With Bunnies: Bellybutton the Rabbit, one of his characters and his Author Avatar.
- Freeze-Frame Bonus: Many of his videos have walls of text that only appear for about 1/4 of a second. In one Barney poop, he chastises the viewers for posting the hidden messages in the comments.
- Grand Finale: "You Are Still a Sad, Strange Little Man". A sequel to one of his most popular poops, and a love letter to all his fans who support him.
- I Banged Your Mom: Inverted in "Spingebill and Squardwid Become Butt Buddies"Mr. Krabs: What you're doing is me mother!
- Lighter and Softer: Most of his dA pictures, as well as his Doodle Toons series, are decidedly more family-friendly than his poops.
- Old Shame: Has stated on his Twitter that he is now feeling guilty about his 9/11 jokes. His second Q&A revealed that he did because "everybody else was doing it".
- Punny Name: His Twitter name is 'Jack Ingoff'.
- Recycled Script:
- Two of his videos use the same SpongeBob "knock knock" joke from "Dying for Pie", with the second video it appears in having a message that appears for a split second acknowledging that he already made the joke.
- He also uses the EastEnders theme joke in '(insert quote from movie here)', then lampshades the second time.
- Same with the "Really really?" bit in "Star Shrek", which is also lampshaded.
- Running Gag: Characters flying into the Twin Towers, with plenty of Lampshade Hanging over how offensive it is.
- Ear rape. Tons of ear rape.
- Thomas & Friends jokes.
- Rule of Three: In "You Are a Sad, Strange Little Man":Mr. Potato Head: (anticipating what Andy's present could be) Mr. Potato Head, Mr. Potato Head, Mr. Potato Head.......Senor Chang: GAY—
- Screwed by the Lawyers: Has been affected by YouTube's utterly broken copyright system.
- Self-Deprecation:
- "Nostalgia Critic: cartoonlover98" is perhaps the ultimate example of this.
- Before it was changed, his DeviantArt user page was named "SomeFagNamedJack".
- An unfinished poop's opening credits claimed it came from "Cartoonlover98 is a dickhead" Productions.
- Sensory Abuse: To the point where his slogan was at one point "The number one leading cause of deafness."
- Shout-Out: Has given ones to fellow poopers EmperorLemon and AwfulFawfulTheFalafel.
- Take That!:
- In one video that is presumably lost media, he remarks that while he'll be making less YTPs, he won't quit altogether, "because unlike SOME people, I'd hate to leave my viewers and my impact behind." MoBrosStudios' Author Avatar subsequently pops up for a brief second.
- The same video also ends with him remarking that he won't do reviews — "gotta leave this stuff to the professionals, like Benthelooney." A split-second message subsequently remarks "JOKE!! I feel like a dumbass knowing I used to be a fan of his videos."
- In one video that is presumably lost media, he remarks that while he'll be making less YTPs, he won't quit altogether, "because unlike SOME people, I'd hate to leave my viewers and my impact behind." MoBrosStudios' Author Avatar subsequently pops up for a brief second.
- Token Minority: Try to find another Irish YTPer.
- Troubled Production: The release of the Toy Story 2 poop and the Doodle Toons short "Aww, Shaddup!" have been delayed by issues in production. (The later, in particular, suffered from Jack losing bits of animation while animating and editing. Luckily, he either recovered the missing animations, or wound up re-animating scenes with some errors already in it.)
- Visual Pun: From his second Q&A video:Goldie: Wow! That's the biggest cock I've seen this week!Pip: Can we rub it?(cut to whole scene, where it's revealed they're talking about a chicken)Bellybutton: Of course you can!
- Vomit Indiscretion Shot: Happens twice in "You Are a Sad, Strange Little Man", both scenes involving Rex and Potato Head.
- Vulgar Humor: A running theme in his poops.
- What the Hell, Hero?: In "Plinkplank's Disturbing Glimpse Into Reality", just as he's about to make another 9/11 joke, comments on his other videos calling him out for this slide onto the screen and freeze.
- You Bastard!: In "Benny Gets Fingered by Black People", a split-second message flashes by. When paused, the message calls the viewer out on pausing the video to read the message and typing it up in the comments section to spoil the joke for others.
