YouTube Poop (often referred to by its shorthand, "YTP") is a Neo-Dada art form consisting of video remixes that are edited from a large array of video clips in order to confuse, stun or entertain the viewer. The source material can be mashed all together into a nonsensical Cross Over story, or just repeat footage of the characters gesticulating oddly or apparently saying something dirtyover and over and over again. There are also well-known phrases such as "PINGAS"◊ or "Do a Barrel Roll!"◊.YouTube Poop started with SuperYoshi testing out Windows Movie Maker, a new piece of software he found in his newly installed Windows XP, using the episode "Recycled Koopa" from The Super Mario Bros. 3 cartoon. The result was a video containing a few clips from the episode repeated and used in a random manner. Later he put this video as The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 Remixed on December 22, 2004, up on his SheezyArt page. The video was well received and SuperYoshi together with his friend RetroJape made similiar remixes using The Megaman Cartoon and later Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. A few more of SuperYoshi's friends joined and started putting their videos on YouTube in order to confuse and anger people who were otherwise looking for regular Super Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog videos. The first three Poops have been brought to YouTube later as I'D SAY HE'S HOT ON OUR TAIL, Dr. Light's Guidance System Show and Robotnik's Sodomy Fest of 2005, respectively.Interestingly, two precursors to the YouTube Poop can be found in Daffy Duck in Hollywood, a 1938 short in which Daffy edits a film reel to produce this, and Cult Toons, a TV show made for Cartoon Network UK that mixed old Hanna Barbara cartoons like The Perils of Penelope Pitstop with wrestling, kung fu and blaxploitation movies for cheap laughs. Richard Nixon even put out an attack ad on Hubert Humphrey in the 1968 presidential campaign that bears a surprising similarity to Poop conventions.It was not until people like The Electric Cheese got to know about these videos and started making ones themselves that the term Youtube Poop was used for them and that they increased in popularity.With the growing popularity YouTube Poop shifted from being videos that confuse people who were looking for regular videos (in fact, the people who started it are more fond of "WTF?" comments than people commenting or repeating the parts they liked in the video and were dismissive of the term ''Youtube Poop'' for a long time) to videos that entertain people by using video sources that have become iconic with the name Youtube Poop.And now even The BBC are getting in on it!!Have a gander at the Forums and Wiki.
Super Mario World, especially the episode "Mama Luigi" ("That's Mama Luigi to you, Mario!").
The episodes, "Rock TV" ("Bash a few blocks and rake in the buckaroos!"), "Yoshi Shuffle" ("It's a stone, Luigi! You didn't make it!") and "Cave Christmas" ("Santa isn't going on a diet!") are also particularly favored.
A clip from the episode "Sonic's Song" of Robotnik spewing Angrish ("DOY! SHOU!") is becoming increasingly common.
Robotnik is an easy target for jokes in this source. Whether it be sharing a cozy hot cup of lapsang souchong tea, shouting WHY?!! WHY?!! WHY?!!, yelling "NO!" at his robot minions, or giving himself a "prrromotion!"
Few people know that the "Diploma Dope" fad came from this source as well.
The Dr. Rabbit cartoons by Colgate (A long saga of Colgate-Palmolive trying to get these off YouTube culminated in the very popular pooper WalrusGuy being banned briefly; his return was taken as a quiet admission by Colgate-Palmolive that the Dr. Rabbit videos could be used).
There also exists a Dr. Rabbit flash cartoon as well as a Dr. Rabbit puppet show. Neither of which are as popular as the standard cartoons, but they still appear frequently in poops.
Almost every other Dr. Rabbit YTP mocks the copyright infringement battles.
I.M. Meen, an old DOS game animated by the folks who animated the CD-i games.
The sequel Chill Manor is also used. Notably the ending cutscene where I.M. Meen "rapes" a chair.
The Volvic Commercials with Tyrannosaurus Alan and George the Volcano: "I'm filling my water with volcanicity!" "Now, I'm off to eat someone's parents."
The "WTF Boom" is rather often used in Poops, to the frustration of the pooping community, who consider it overused and predictable.
Weegee, a singularly creepy image of Luigi derived from his weird sprite in the PC version of Mario is Missing. Before this, Weegee was a standard Image Macro meme. (Nobody ever pays attention to Weegee!)
Malleo, Walleo, and Walweegee have made appearances (For anyone wondering Malleo is like Mario, Walleo and Walweegee are good versions of Wario and Waluigi respectively).
The infamous Rick Roll video. (The music video to Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley)
Western Animation
Other Cartoons based on video games
The US Street Fighter cartoon (though most of the time, it is just the Bison quotes that are used).
This is delicious! Yes! Yes! Yeee-eeees!
Although Guile's got a few of his own ("BISON!!", "SONIC BOOOOM!", "NOOOOOOOOOO!", "Just get in the plane!")
Not to mention Sagat's now-infamous "You like some cornflakes? Hahahahaha!!" line.
Particularly favored episodes are "Love 'Em and Flea 'Em" ("Yard sales?! I LOVE yard sales!"), "You Slipped a Disk" ("WATCH IT, BIRDBRAIN!") and of course, "You Say It's Your Birthday". ("Throwing us out like day-old pizza.")
Poops with this source have lately become hard to find. At one time, all the episodes were up on YouTube, but Disney took them all down and banned every user who uploaded them. The only known episodes still existing on YouTube are the two fan favorites: "Love 'Em and Flea 'Em" and "De Village Elder".
Metalocalypse (A vast majority of the time, it's only clips involving Dr. Rockso, and a vast majority of that time, it's only for a Stupid Statement Dance Mix)
Animaniacs, specifically the episode Clown and Out.
Thomas the Tank Engine: Many episodes of the original series have been pooped by a variety of users. Oft-used episodes include 'The Sad Story of Henry' and 'Toby and the Stout Gentleman'.
One source involves Rugrats, where Stu Pickles is making chocolate pudding at 4 in the morning for Angelica and he then screams because she wasn't hungry anymore.
Because Stu lost all control of his-PINGAS!-
Some classic Disney cartoons have even had their share of poops, especially the Donald Duck short Der Fuhrer's Face.
Adventure Time is used fairly often too, mainly the pilot episode, but "Ricardio" is pretty popular too.
The show's intro is used rather often, as well as the closing credits (which are included in pretty much every single poop containing this source).
Many first-time poopers of this source like to use "Mare in the Moon", especially the opening storyline and Pinkie Pie's big gasp. (Keep in mind, because of Pinkie Pie's personality and because she's a fan favorite to a lot of bronies, the scenes involving her are used often in poops.)
"Applebuck Season" ("Celery!")
"Gryffon the Brush Off"
"Dragonshy" ("Talk about getting your beauty sleep!")
2 Stupid Dogs The scene with Mr. Hollywood and the bird is used the most.
But it's wrong!!!!
For a while "At the Drive-in" was the most used (Mainly on the pre-2010 poops and one poop in 2010), "Come to the snack bar, spend all your money, and at the snack bar ,eat a bunch of yummy!".
Stay Tooned, yet another old game containing very poorly-animated cutscenes. Contains a parody of Seinfeld, called Whinefeld, which is the most well-known part of this source.
3D Dinosaur Adventure. Yet another old DOS game that contains some rather hilarious dialogue with voice-acting that sounds a lot like the cast from The Simpsons. The most well known part of this source is Dromiosaurus, a dinosaur who jumps out and scares the crap out of people in the "Save the Dinosaurs" game.
Sonic X (particularly "SHUT UP!" from the Sonic VS Knuckles episode, but it's also popular to play "Gotta Go Fast" whenever somebody's running/sped up).
Sonic Underground is also used (particularly Knuckles saying "I HATE [X]!").
Pokémon also makes good pooping material, but no special memes have come from it other than the random Internet meme: "So I herd u liek Mudkips?"
Sabrina Online has gotten quite popular with YouTube Poopers thanks to YTPnews1. Particularly, the video Plight of the Artist, where Sabrina screams really loud due to her Amiga computer deleting an important picture that she made.
This might be a case of Misaimed Fandom since the YTPnews guy dislikes the more 'story' based YTPs over the random ones but then again he could be a parody of the 'serious business' mentality.
The character, Phonofoot (an image of Littlefoot with a phonograph for a head who continuously utters the phrase, "And it flew real low."), usually appears in these poops.
Sesame Street has even had its fair share of poops, especially the one featuring Jack Black.
Most Sesame Street poops involve the Cookie Monster, particularly the sketch where he's in the library, where he tries to guess what's in the box with Kermit The Frog, and where he cooperates with the Count.
The Welcome To Pooh Corner special, Too Smart for Strangers, is a popular source for sentence-mixing poops. ("Fuck you, Tigger!")
The sound clip of "FUS RO DAH!" from the trailer for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (but rarely from the actual game) is often dubbed into videos where someone goes flying, often with the bit of the theme song that picks up after it and the narration preceding it included.
Dawn of War: Soulstorm has become a major source of Poops. The pure cheesiness of some of the character's speeches (SPEHSS MAHREENS! METAHL BAWKSES!) is truly worthy of it.
In UK-based poops, footage of children's author Michael Rosen is frequently used, due to his unusual appearance and odd facial expressions and because the source videos consist of him talking for a long time without background music, making it very easy to sentence mix.
At one time, Michael Rosen threatened to take down all the YouTube Poops because he didn't like how people were sentence-mixing his messages to have him say inappropriate things. Some poopers took down all their Michael Rosen poops in order to be safe, but eventually, Rosen lightened up and said his stuff could be used.
One particular skit with Penn & Teller where Penn says, "Shut the fuck up!"
Barack Obama's speeches are used often.
The infamous video featuring Ugandan priest Martin Ssempa lecturing a crowd about the "evils" of homosexuality, more commonly known known as the "EAT DA POO POO" video.
Some dialogue from the Monty Python sketches and movies are used in poops.
The DVD menus of assorted DVD's released by DiC Entertainment with Inspector Gadget instructing the users has become very popular amongst the sentence-mixers.
Youtubepoop (apparently banned due to numerous reports of copyright violation)
Other variations/sub-fads include, but are in no way limited to:
List Poops: A line from a certain source is repeated numerous times, with the noun or verb of the sentence changed to something different each time. For instance, the aforementioned Sonic Says segment has often been pooped this way so that he continually says, "Then, ya [verb]!"
"And Who Are You Supposed To Be?": A variation of the list poop. A clip of a judge character (from the Adventures Of Sonic The Hedgehog episode "Best Hedgehog") asking the title question is repeated numerous times, and each use of it is followed by a different clip as if the character featured is giving a response.
Obey X, Destroy Y!: Another variation of the list poop. The list repeats a clip of Wario saying "Obey Wario, destroy Mario!" from the Super Mario Land 2 commercial, with the characters' names replaced by two different nouns each time, usually from the same source. Often, X is an evil thing and Y is a good thing (i.e. "Obey Cheatsy Koopa, destroy some grandma!" or "Obey Psycrow, destroy Earthworm Jim!"), but other times, it's a combination that just sounds silly ("Obey Mr. Turtle, destroy Mr. Owl!" or "Obey my cap, destroy club jackets!").
Dinner-Spaghetti Poops: This is a term used to describe an unproffessional poop that contains overused memes, random meme-replacement, and barely any effort. Also known as Dinner-Spaghetti Faggotry or Spadinner poops.
The X Dilemma: A situation is set up, then resolved anticlimactically, followed by an abrupt cut to a Vanity Plate (usually the one used by Dic Entertainment).
Ear Rape: Turning up the volume randomly or distorting the sound heavily.
Spaghetti Sus: Playing a word or line halfway through then reversing it.
Tennis: one person produces a short poop, the other answers with another short poop mixed out of the first one and some own material.
This Video is Better than X: A short clip, either something that's silly when taken out of context, absurdly trivial, or a super-short Poop, combined with a title that promises "This Video Is Better Than" something (a popular video game or movie, or another fad).
"X's Microgames": Various actions featuring the titular Poop character set to audio from WarioWare, along with said series' characteristic "Action!" commands. The Poops made with programs such as Adobe Premiere (and some with Movie Maker or even WarioWare DIY Showcase for Wii) often include such items as lives, points, and boss games for added realism.
"X Does Y For About Z Minutes": a short scene repeats for the indicated time. Kinda like above, except without music, but varying effects (slowed down, black and white etc). This one was made popular by the now-removed "Tigerzord Loses His Head For 10 Minutes" which used the clip from the Season 3 episode "Ninja Quest Part 1"
"Youtube Poop Music Videos", or "YTPMV": can be used to refer to either a fan music video made with clips from Youtube Poops, or a Stupid Statement Dance Mix made from YTP fodder. Occasionally their creators betray some genuine musical talent, as is the case with It's From the Show and others by igiulamam. The term "YTPMV" is also mostly applied to any pitch-shifted sound in sync to a song.
"This Video Contains X": The original video was an image of Dr. Robotnik, as his infamous "Pingas" soundbyte was synced up to the Gourmet Race music from the Kirby series through pitch and speed changes. It was forced into a fad when the creator created a second one and said that it was fad material. However, this fad split two ways after that:
Path 1: Another random character's head is super imposed on top of Robotnik's and a soundbyte from the new character is synced with the old music.
Path 2: Robotnik's head is superimposed on top of another character's in another image. The "Pingas" clip here is synced up with a song relating to the series the new image is from. Because there may be multiple characters in this image, other characters from The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog may be placed upon them. A variation to this path is to instead use Morshu, and sync his "Mmmm" clip with music.
Path 3: This father fad syncs up Japanese McDonald's commercials with another song. This fad gave birth to the above two fads, but is presently on its deathbed.
"X Bonk": Similar to the above fad but with the superimposed head of The Scout from Team Fortress 2 yelling "BONK!" (and possibly "BOINK!") is synced up with another song.
"U.N. Owen Was X?": A random clip is synced up with Flandre's theme from Touhou.
Sparta Remixes: Sound clips from a character synced up to a techno song.
"What is X?": Shows a clip of the famous Saturday Night Live sketch with Jim Carrey of the three guys in the car rocking out to the song, "What is Love?" only with the heads replaced with YTP characters and memes playing in sync with the music.
Other: These are just like the above fads, but are rare and often hidden inside of larger poops. In them, any random clip is synced with any random song.
"Flash Poops": Telling stories starring the most well-known characters used in YouTube Poops by using tools such as Macromedia Flash.
"#71519": Random sound clips are added to the 1st season opening of The Critic to make it look like the people in the clips are calling Jay Sherman, the main character, keeping with the theme of the show's opening Couch Gag. The name of the fad comes from the title of the video that spawned it, "Filler #71519".
"Squidward": An image is distorted for 10 seconds, with the distortions aligned with the song Gentle Breeze from Trauma Center. Often times, these images involve the Spongebob Squarepantscharacter the fad was named after.
"THIS VIDEO WILL BE FLAGGED": A character repeatedly says and/or does something dirty, often by the means of Manipulative Editing.
Collaborations: One person on the Youtube Poop forums organizes a "collab", when everyone must make a poop of a specific subject or doing a specific thing; for example, an Anime collab would be a collection of anime poops by several poopers compiled into one video (or more depending on the length). It's less likely for more popular poopers, and it's usually the obscure ones that enter these collabs.
"Nooo...": In a clip of the character Buttercup from Powerpuff Girls cowering in fear of a sludge monster, Buttercup's voice is dubbed over and a different face is overlayed on the sludge monster.
"Fucking": A scene progresses mostly as normal except that splices of the current speaker saying "fucking" randomly punctuate words.
"_____ has been forbidden to speak": A long video clip is played in sequence but with every vocal sound removed through smash cut.
"Nouns Replaced with X": Certain words of a clip (often the Hotel Mario intro) are replaced with another clip, leading to Mad Libs?esque dialogue.
X's Y Rap: A character raps to their situation. Started by Ed's Grounded Rap.
"ナイト・オブ・【X】" ("Night of X" in Japanese): A random clip is synced up with Night of Nights, a remix of Sakuya Izayoi's theme from Touhou. A Variation is McX'd where the video is similar to the audio: McRoll'd/Ronald McDonald Insanity.
What happens when you synch the infamous Angry German Kid video with Yukari's Necrofantasia? Something so Crazy Awesome you have to see it to believe it. And then you find out there are similar videos for almost every Touhou song ever made...
Other: These are just like the above three fads, but are rare and often hidden inside of larger poops. In them, any random clip is synced with any random song.
"X ZONE": Clips of X are synced to the song "RED ZONE" from Beatmania IIDX.
Cocaine: Replacing a word with the same word from a song. It also spawned a sub-fad called "Money" where you do the same, but with the line "We've got to have ... money!" said by the villain of Tom and Jerry: The Movie.
"Filler Poops": REAL short poops, made very quickly.
"FCKED": A scene from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 is shown, with one character's sentence quickly mixed so it sounds like they are saying the titular word (though not intended to accurately sound like "fuck"). After that a clip of Luigi saying "koop" (from "Koopa") is synced with a classic video game song.
"file_name.extension": A character (usually Gwonam from the Zelda CD-i games) says the titular phrase, then the video abruptly changes to a quick repetition that flips and/or rotates instantly upon every repetition, and a random song plays without synchronization. Some videos are also named in the vain of "video.avi" for no reason.
In a spin-off fad, the file name is the name of the song that plays at the end, and one or more characters (usually from Hotel Mario) say the name of the song. These usually end with King Harkinian saying or doing something odd.
"Patrick hates _____": Shows a clip from a Spongebob episode where a TV drops in from out of nowhere. What's viewed on the screen is a random video. Squidward comes by and watches some of it, but then Patrick turns it off and says, "I hate this channel."
Unnecessary Censorship: Putting a bleep sound over innocuous words to make the sentence sound more dirty. A good example from an Aladdin one was Aladdin breaking the snake staff and telling the Sultan "Jafar has been BLEEP-ing you with this!" Considered lazy in recent days, what with the rise of sentence mixing.
Many attempts at a "Youtube Poop: The Movie" have been made, becoming a fad in itself.
WalrusGuy has announced that he is attempting to make an officialYoutube Poop movie.
"You Dare Not Agree with X?": The "Ren Snaps" sequence from The Ren & Stimpy Show, but with a random YTP character in Ren's place at the President's desk. Sometimes, the character's catchphrases (like Morshu's "Mmmmm" and Robotnik's "PINGAS!) are mixed into it.
"______ Drops By Squidward's House." Squidward is shown bathing; after which point the door opens and another character or object is overlaid while Squidward screams.
"Strike Up the Band!": The scene from Beauty and the Beast when Lefou strikes up the band for Belle and Gaston's wedding, only with a different song playing in place of "Here Comes the Bride".
"______'s Sneeze of Doom": Shows a clip from a random movie or TV show where a character sneezes, but the sneeze instance is extended, and the audio is replaced with Sneezy's big sneeze from Snow White And The Seven Dwarves.
"Guile's Theme Goes With Everything!" Not necessarily YTP-related, but still plays a random clip from any form of movie, cartoon, video game, etc. playing Guile's Theme from the Street Fighter series.
A simillar fad is The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air fad where a music from a show or game plays alongside the theme song of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (at the same speed rate). The two will always fit together no matter what.
"YouTube Poop Sucks!": At one point, someone made a video entitled "YouTube Poop Sucks!", which showed a silent brief clip of Robotnik having tea with his mother being looped for about 45 seconds. It then showed a different clip from that episode being played back and forth about 8 times, then back to the original clip for another 30 seconds, and then, the video got cut off just when something else was about to happen. When this video was posted, it started a chain of video responses that had the same style only using clips from different sources. This went on for about three or four days but eventually stopped.
This Video Will Give You Nightmares:A seemingly normal scene (Usually from the CD-i games) involving a face closeup slowly turns into a face indicating rape or a gory/frightning face a few seconds into the video. A creepy ambience plays in the background for the extra effect.
Mabe Village:A picture of a character is edited several times with the theme song of Mabe Village from The Ocarina of Time.
YTP RPGs: Flash poops where characters battle each other in a Final Fantasy style gameplay.
"X tells the Queen of Hearts to shut up": Shows the Queen of Hearts yelling "OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!" and then shows another random character yelling back at her (usually its "Shut up!")
Xcube:A character's [[catchphrase]] is played to the gamecube intro. EG Robotnik's PINGAS or Morshu's MMMM.
Edd's Doorbell: A scene from {{Ed,Edd,N Eddy}} where Ed presses a doorbell. The ring of the bell is turned into a song of some sort like Tetris.
Sentence-Mixing:
Sentence-Mixing is something that has grown to be very popular in the YouTube Poop world. This is where they make a character say a completely different phrase by mixing around all his lines. Here are a few examples of some sentence-mixed jokes:Hotel Mario
The first spoken line in Hotel Mario is Mario saying, "Nice of the princess to invite us over for a picnic, eh, Luigi?" Poopers often joke that Mario is saying "Gay Luigi", as if he's calling Luigi gay.
In the intro, Luigi breaks the fourth wall by saying, "And you've got to help us." The "got to help" part is often made to sound like he's saying, "Go to Hell."
As stated above, the Sonic Says about sexual harrassment is really popular for sentence-mixed lines. Various different types of messages have been made from it.
Probably the most popular one: In the episode, "Boogey-Mania", Robotnik saying "Snooping as usual, I see", is made to make him or other characters say, "penis".
Another popular way to make this word is in the Christmas special, which is taken out of Robotnik saying a line about happiness.
The user, Boogidyboo, popularized the usage of the phrase "Chocolate-covered cock" in Robotnik poops.
Dr. Rabbit's World Tour
This source has been sentence-mixed to death by many poopers who have made Dr. Rabbit say many inappropriate or sex-related messages. The most popular ones are "ass" (taken from "acid") and "CUM!" (taken from "Australia, here we come!")
Volvic Commercials
A lot of poopers like to have George the Volcano say, "My handsome volcano cock" in these types of poops.
When Tyrannosaurus Alan says "I've only got a brain the size of a pea". Pea is made to refer to urine.
It is also popular to make George or Alan say "cum" from "Come on world".
"My birds" and "grabs life by the conkers" are very popular.
Portraying the Fat Controller as being in homosexual relationships with any number of characters, most notably his butler. Occasionally his name is changed to "The Fat Cunt" or "The Fat Troll" to accompany this.
The Fat Controller is debatably the most popular Thomas Youtube Poop character, who in addition to the above is often portrayed as being either a Memetic Badassinvoked, a Cloudcuckoolander, or an anime fan (or sometimes all three).
The engines themselves are all usually portrayed as sex-crazed lunatics, despite their lack of genitalia.
Sentence-mixed sex jokes are notably mostly confined to poops using Ringo Starr's narration, due to laziness and the availability of pre-set swear words (although a Michael Angelis swear pack is also available, it is less abused).
Mario's Fundamentals
Some popular sentence-mixed phrases from this source include:
"That's a gay game!"
"No! Fuck you!"
"Big boobs!"
"I'm a gopher!"
"Mario has to pass gas."
"Here's-a your boner!"
"You suck!"
"That's-a going online!"
Too Smart for Strangers
Most common for this source is Tigger saying, "Fuck you," to random characters and Pooh telling Piglet that he wants to touch his butt.
The Villain Song in this movie has had an infinite amount of sentence-mixed jokes, most of which contained swearing, and it helped that the song contained the word "hell" several times.
These have become very popular with a few sentence-mixers, who have made countless different messages with this source, but some particular favorites are:
"Move the glow around my butthole."
"You asshole"
"If you want to watch the episodes with the English subtitles on, you suck."
Some specific poopers have managed to sentence-mix this source to death to make the characters say just about anything sexual or otherwise.
One thing that's really popular with poopers is having Twilight Sparkle say, "For fuck's sake, Spike!", which is actually mixed with a line said by another character that Tara Strong voiced on a complelely different show.
The "Meet The Team" videos have been sentence-mixed so much due to all of the lines in each one making for good snowcloning material (for example, using Meet The Heavy: "It cost $12 to touch my gun...for 400 seconds."). Some poopers will even use voice clips from the game itself, providing even more sentence-mixing shenanigans.
Brutal Legend
Dinner Warrior discovered that the narration of this source could be sentence-mixed to say anything at all.
Tropes commonly invoked with these videos:
Accidental Innuendo: invoked Attention is often drawn to it through videos that take lines out of context to make them sound dirty.
Beat: Somewhat common in poops, undoubtedly used to show that a character is either Too Dumb to Live or Comically Missing the Point. Here's an example from Link Discovers Ganon's Least Favorite Colour:
Gwonam: It is written that only Link can defeat Ganon and Link is in space.
Berserk Button: Naturally, what will piss off a character in a YTP depends on the pooper, but there are some things that will be a Berserk Button for a character no matter whose YTP they're in. For starters, whenever someone messes with The King's dinner, it never ends well for them.
Butt Monkey: Considering the nature of YouTube Poop, everybody has been this trope at least once, but there are some characters who appear in Youtube Poop almost exclusively as a Butt Monkey. Duke Onkled from The Legend Of Zelda C Di Games is a notable example, partly because he was already a Dirty Coward in the game. Luigi from the The Super Mario Bros. Super Show is another, partly because of the "Mama Luigi" episode, which had Yoshi thinking Luigi was his mama, and Mario laughing at this.
Comically Missing the Point: In many instances. For example, take any scene, and zoom in on some person or object in the background or off to the side, and make a big deal of it. Another great example is how important the wheeze is from the line "That's 'Mama Luigi' to you, Mario! *wheeze*"—important enough that commenters will observe when it is missing. This may also be used to point out Off Model moments.
Complete Monster:invoked Dr. Rabbit is often made into one in poops. Contrary to what some think, it wasn't started in response to the saga involving Colgate making copyright claims for the videos containing the character, but after it was through, a lot more people started portraying him as such.
Continuity Nod: Happens rarely, but some poopers do reference events in previous poops.
Crapsaccharine World: Due to the nature of Youtube Poops, this usually happens to the setting that they take place in. A notable victim of this trope is Hyrule, which is often portrayed as a seemingly stable kingdom but ruled by a tyrant and his often depraved royal servants. Recently, Equestria is also getting this treatment in poops, not really helped by the fact that the Princess which rules over it has been dubbed "Trollestia" by the fans of the actual show.
Deadpan Snarker: Not as common of an archtype as you would think, as most characters in YTP tend to ignore the "deadpan" part and outright snark or insult another character. As a result, those who appear in vids almost exclusively as one are usually such in canon, such as Kyon from Haruhi Suzumiya and Frollo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Everyone Is Gay: Happens a lot, and when it does, it's turned Up to Eleven. The King's Secret is a good example.
Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Many YTPs have titles this easily applies to, often because there isn't much to describe. This applies especially often to titles of the form "X does Y for Z minutes." (Sometimes with an added note about fitting or unfitting music played.) This would be an example.
invokedFanon: Hyrule's royal family living in Ludwig's Castle Hotel from Hotel Mario, among many others.
King Harkinian's "Munf Munf" cereal is another that has transcended to become fanon, as well as his "Dinner Blaster".
invokedSubverted Kids Show: While kids' shows aren't the only thing used in YTP, they are one of the main things in it, and the comedic effect of editing things to sound vulgar is a lot more noticeable when the source material itself is for children. This is taken Up to Eleven by YTPs of Edu Tainment shows like "Dr. Rabbit's World Tour."
They Killed Kenny Again: Almost every regular Youtube Poop character has been killed at least once.
Trademark Favourite Food: Or more accurately, memetic favourite food; various major YTP characters have foods they are associated with because of lines from source material.
◊ or "Do a Barrel Roll!"
◊.YouTube Poop started with SuperYoshi
testing out Windows Movie Maker, a new piece of software he found in his newly installed Windows XP, using the episode "Recycled Koopa" from The Super Mario Bros. 3 cartoon. The result was a video containing a few clips from the episode repeated and used in a random manner. Later he put this video as The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 Remixed on December 22, 2004, up on his SheezyArt page. The video was well received and SuperYoshi together with his friend RetroJape
