"Shut up, asshole! You are made of sperm!."
A Spanish-language Mexican animated web series made in Flash and created by independent American-based animator Roberto "Darkar" Alatriz. Apparently it is one of the most lucrative YouTube cartoons of Mexico with over 130 million views and more than 6 million followers.
The story is a Slice of Life that revolves around Darkar, an impulsive, immature and rude teenager who lacks any sense of responsibility or respect. Together with his Vitriolic Best Bud Mecoboy, a mysterious being made of jizz, he faces nosense situations that often end with an Aesop Amnesia or a trademark Preemptive "Shut Up".
The miniseries can be found on the VeteALaVersh Youtube channel

Provides Examples of:
- All There in the Manual: The official webpage contains information and names of the secondary characters, but most of the information about them makes no sense at all and is Played for Laughs.
- Apologises a Lot: The Crying Girl, when around Darkar.
- Atomic F-Bomb: In "The Legend Of Melda"Darkar: What the shit cunt fucking FUCK?! How the FUCK do you expect me to beat a stupid 820 feet tall dragon with a wooden sword?!
- Author Avatar: According to
Word of God, Darkar represents his carefree side, while Mecoboy represents his mature side. - Black Comedy Rape: The episodes featuring Luis and Jorge the penguins.
- Bland-Name Product: Lots of them: Nimadres, Nalgonalds, Puchamon, Marochan, The Legend of Melda and Super Mauricio Bros.
- Brilliant, but Lazy: Darkar is likely smarter and more perceptive than even Mecoboy, but he has no real ambition or long-term plans; on the rare occasion he does act it's usually For the Lulz.
- Butt-Monkey: Poor Mecoboy....And the Crying Girl to a lesser degree, though just about every character in the series (even Karma Houdini Darkar) draws the short stick every now and then...
- Catchphrase: Jorge the penguin everytime he is molested by Luis: "I'm not female!"
- Children Are Innocent: Played straight with the Crying Girl, Senovio and Luperdo.
- Cloudcuckoolander's Minder: Mecoboy tries to be this for Darkar, with varying degrees of success.
- Cluster F-Bomb: Actually the focus of an entire story. Darkar walks in the street calling random people 'Bitch' just For the Lulz, until he encounters the Crying Girl, who is sad and depressed because she lost her pet, Snowball. Just when it looks like he is about to console her, he calls her a bitch and walks away.
- Didn't Think This Through: Darkar is pretty much incapable of thinking about anything beyond short-term gratification.
- Dragged into Drag: Poor Jorge the penguin is forced to cosplay as Princess Jasmine from Aladdin in the episode "A Whole New World".
- Dude Looks Like a Lady: Jorge the penguin, so much that he is frequently molested by fellow penguin Luis, who mistakes him for a female. Even after Jorge's multiple attempts to convince him, Luis either does not listen or does not care.
- Eldritch Abomination: Cati la Catarina turns into one when he gets angry.
- Expecting Someone Taller: When Darkar (roleplaying as Link) lands in the castle attempting to save Princess Melda, she says flatly that she was expecting for a "handsome blue-eyed blonde" not a "worthless yellow brat".
- Foreshadowing: It's hinted in easlier seasons that Darkar is smarter and perceptive than he looks, but chooses not to. As it turns out, Season 5 reveals that he was adopted by a scientist.
- Hello, [Insert Name Here]: Parodied in the Puchamon episode. When prompted to give his rival (Mecoboy) a name, Darkar opts for "Vagina". Vagi- err, Mecoboy is not pleased when the game keeps calling him that.
- Heroic Comedic Sociopath: A lot of jokes come from Darkar callously screwing other people over.
- Hollywood Tone-Deaf: Darkar, when singing in the shower in “Velleza” and when ignoring Mecoboy in “Nalgonalds”. Subverted, as in the episodes in which he sings in acoustic, he is a decent singer.
- It Amused Me: Darkar's motivation for almost everything.
- It Runs in the Family: Darkar's Gramps is as awful as him. Not only he burns Darkar with hot tea, but makes Mecoboy explode on purpose. It might be because he is senile, but still an asshole though. Downplayed, as Season 5 reveals Darkar is adopted and not related to Gramps in any way.
- Karma Houdini: Darkar is prone to moments of petty Comedic Sociopathy, and always gets away with it. The only time he ever gets punished is in Season 5 after he bothered Mecoboy and El Bombo a bit too much.
- Killed Offscreen: Happens everytime at the end of the Cati la Catarina sketches, with the eponymous ladybug murdering his companions because they pissed him off.
- Kindhearted Cat Lover: Apparently the Crying Girl is this. She even owns a white call named Snowball.
- Large Ham:Darkar: "I WANT A HAMBURGUEEEEEER!!"Darkar: "TECNIQUE OF THE DRAGONS DEADLY SCROOOOOOOTUM!!"Jorge the penguin: "I'M NOT FEMALE!!"
- Limited Wardrobe: Subverted in Season 2, as Darkar changes his trademark striped shirt for a striped hoodie.
- Made of Iron / Nigh-Invulnerability: Mecoboy is very durable due to being an alien, exploding and getting destroyed many times with no visible scratches or injury.
- Made of Phlebotinum: Mecoboy is a sentient being made of semen. Season 5 reveals he has alien origins.
- Major Injury Underreaction: During the Christmas 2010 Episode:*after Darkar chokes Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer*Santa Claus: You killed my reindeer, you asshole!Darkar: Really? Nah, he is just asleep. Hey, I need you to bring me the Super Mauricio Bros. game.
- Moral Myopia: Darkar has no problem with screwing other people over to get his way, but the second someone retaliates he'll moan about they're being cruel to him.
- Musical Episode: "Tacos","The Flesh-eating Ward" and "Bitch (The Musical)".
- Never My Fault: Darkar tends to blame anyone for everything that goes wrong, even when it's clearly his fault due to his poor impulse control. Given Darkar's own mental instability and the fact he indirectly killed his adoptive mother, it's quite likely that accepting responsibility for what he's done would break him.
- No-Dialogue Episode: The Episode “A Day at the Beach” consists in Mecoboy watching the sunset in the beach. And then he smiles, with a smile from his heart. Subverted when Darkar tries to parody a technique from Street Fighter and kicks him in the face, doing a Moment Killer.
- Once an Episode: Poor Mecoboy, so many times bullied, insulted, owned or destroyed by Darkar.
- One Dialogue, Two Conversations: After Darkar throws Mecoboy one of his hair pubes just For the Lulz. The two start screaming at each other, saying different dialogues at the same time.
- Only Sane Man: Mecoboy.
- Also Jorge the penguin, in his segments.
- Rich Bitch: Princess Melda
- Single-Target Sexuality: Luis the penguin is pretty much Jorgesexual.
- Shout-Out: Lots of them, but in one episode, when Darkar uses his usual Preemptive "Shut Up" at Mecoboy, he says "Costa Rica, pura vida!", which was the Catchphrase of a character from Just Another Weekend, an older work by the author.
- Subliminal Seduction: "Ukulele of Time" (a parody of Ocarina of Time) has a sign that says "Obligatory Subliminal Message. Errm......Sex."
- Straight Gay: Luis the Penguin.
- They Killed Kenny Again: Mecoboy has being killed at least 5 times per season most of the time by Darkar himself, only for him to turn out alright in the following episode.
- Darkar is a lesser example but he has died 3 times in the series. One of them is case of Negative Continuity but the other two surprisingly were acknowledged in the respective following episodes after it happened.
- Vague Age: The author himself, when asked about it, has said that he hadn't really decided on exact ages for any of the characters. Darkar is in his late teens, according to Word of God.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: According to Word of God, Darkar sees Mecoboy as this. Not so much in Mecoboy's part.
- Voodoo Shark: Various times. Always played for laughsMecoboy: (talking about Darkar becoming a giant) How the hell did you became so big?Darkar: "DRINKING LOTS OF CHOCHOMILK!!"
- Wasteful Wishing: When Darkar poops a magic lamp, the three wishes he asks for are:
- Make Mecoboy explode.
- To clean the bathroom, because he made a mess while pooping the lamp.
- A new remote for the TV, because he can't find his. At first the genie refuses, because he's angry about how stupid his wishes are... then Darkar wishes for the genie to eat the exploded remains of Mecoboy. The genie gives him the remote.
