YMMV / Boycott the Caf

• Alternate Character Interpretation:
  • Spinner is a Memetic Badass. For example, it apparently took a classified government space laser to cut into his testicles to remove a cancerous testicle.
  • Jimmy is from the future, sent here to study our earth culture, based on his futuristic looking house in Season 1. He is still crippled because, while his paralysis is easily curable in the future, his superiors wish to punish him.
  • The only times people hang out with Liberty are if they feel sorry for her or if she just hangs around them and starts talking.
    • Oh, and Coach Armstrong really did have sex with Liberty, which they consider on par with bestiality.
  • Manny is apparently so slutty that she cannot go two hours without sex and has seen every penis at Degrassi. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
  • Craig isn't a successful musican: He's just making CD's on his computer while working at a gas station.
    • According to the Facebook pages: He's apparently a slacker with a failure of a band and a group of friends who are just as bad as he is.
  • The only time people are friends with Ellie are if they literally have no one else to turn to, and she is a "last resort". When given the chance, everyone will immediately try to get away from her.
    • They even comprised a list of every character in the show that managed to get away from her.
  • Jay is always stealing something. Especially candy.
  • Anything Marco does is related to his being gay. Also, he's a marionette.
  • Darcy is Too Dumb to Live.
  • Snake is a spineless pussy. See Butt-Monkey on the main page.
  • Paige is a whore.
  • Bruce the Moose is a dog whose brain got switched with a human's. Meanwhile the dog with his brain is wandering around Canada, having wacky misadventures while trying to find his body.
  • Johnny is just fucking with Alli most of the time.
  • Claire is a robot.
    • And now apparently Kitty Forman
  • Fiona is a Hard-Drinking Party Girl (this one's actually canon)
  • Both Riley and KC are prone to having fits of Unstoppable Rage. This one, like Fiona's, really does have a basis in canon, though in the reviews KC's rage often leads to him doing things like pounding a wooden table until it's shreds into wood chips when he's angry. Meanwhile Riley transforms into the Hulk.
  • Wesley is apparently a general of Nick Junior characters, waging a bloody, genocidal war on all of Disney Junior , and refusing to give mercy when asked by the other side.
  • Jenna is Too Dumb to Live as a parent, leaving her baby alone on the lawn among other things. She is also gay, according to one review.
  • Alli is really Too Dumb to Live.
  • Dave and Wesley began their lives by literally splitting off from Connor like amoebas, and thus Connor, Wesley, and Dave are known as "The Three Connors," and Connor himself is known as Connor Prime.
• Badass Decay: Despite both of them worshipping Spinner, they get mad at him during season 4 when he gets a horrible haircut and falls from grace. He wins them back in season 5 though.
  • Sean in Season 6 to their disappointment
• Crosses the Line Twice: Constantly.
• Do Not Do This Cool Thing: And how!
• Ensemble Dark Horse:The Duo have a collection of their own personal favorites:
  • Spinner, their own personal Memetic Badass
  • Sean, at least until he comes back.
  • Jay, the Loveable Rogue
  • Toby, after he is Demoted to Extra.
  • Holly J for a time in Season 10.
  • Wesley White-Connor earned their respect in "Halo" but time will tell if it sticks.
• Fanon
• Fridge Brilliance: An astonishingly valid comparison between the Degrassi principals and certain U.S. presidents [http://www.dumbbaby.net/degrassi/10/41.shtml]
• Hilarious in Hindsight: Once they started reviewing episodes as they came out:
  • Repeatedly saying that Marco would get AIDS... he didn't, but Paige almost did.
  • Detesting all of the new characters and not even referring to them by name for the longest time.
• Ho Yay: There is a list that actually describes all the boys' penises as imagined by Billie and Johnny.
  • They also think that J.T. and Toby are gay lovers.
  • Same with the Websters.
  • They also think Bruce and Johnny are in love but are too dumb to know and Alli Johnny’s beard, but don’t tell her that, you’d be wasting your time.
• Memetic Badass: Spinner is apparently invulnerable, can shatter a person with one punch, and anything he says is law. For example, it apparently took a Military Space Laser to remove his cancerous testicle.
  • Also the only reason for his rejection from police academy is that he would put the whole of the Canadian police force to shame.
  • Sean also gets this.
• Memetic Mutation: Boycott the Caf! Also where Candy Bandits came from.
• Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Liberty in season 6. Sean, on the other hand...
• Rooting for the Empire: Happens a lot, but especially the Candy Bandits. And Rick. And Dean. And Peter, until he breaks up Spinner/Darcy. And Craig's dad; God knows he deserves it.
• The Scrappy: "Jesus Christ I hate her. Fuck you, Liberty." Craig gets a lot of hate as well.
  • Sav has taken up this position because they needed someone to take their rage out on now that Liberty and Craig are gone.
• Seasonal Rot: Season 6 gets this from them, but it gets worse with each passing season apparently.
  • Though "The Nerds" article states that Season 10 is apparently an improvement.
• Shipmanteau: Parodied and ridiculed as gay.
  • Jay + Alex = Jaleco.
  • Sean + Emma = Semen.
• Viewer Gender Confusion: Is Billie a boy or a girl? On one hand he/she often makes masturbation jokes and what not but on the other hand Johnny offhandedly refers to him/her as "she" during one of his recaps (or maybe it was Shania Twain)...Now compound the fact that Billie sometimes spells his/her name as "Billy" and we reach a whole new level of ambiguity.
  • The whole deal with Billie has become very confused indeed. In one recap Johnny seems to out her as a girl, but in another she implies that she's a gay man (or maybe she just meant gay people in general and is thus a lesbian). All we know about Billie is that s/he likes his/her own sex. Now we just need to figure out which sex that is. Gah!
    • The review for "When Love Takes Over' finally solved the mystery: Billie is a Male to Female transsexual.
  • The "Samantha Earle" fake magazine cover.
