These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.
YMMV: Donald Duck
Archive Panic: We're talkin' about a character who has appeared in a considerable quantity of videogames, thousands of newspaper strips, a frickin' helluva lot in animation, and an absolutely monstrous amount in comic book stories...which have been released in a non-stop basis since 1934 and are unlikely to ever stop as long as The Walt Disney Company operates.
Crack is Cheaper: Don's (almost) complete filmography of animated shorts is available through The Chronological Donald sets on the Walt Disney Treasures. You can easily snatch the four volumes via Amazon, if you have 307 bucks or so laying around. If you live outside of the US, prepare to add shipping costs to your paycheck...
Relax, only two 60's shorts are missing from them.
Fantagraphics Books is doing its own domestic reprint series of Barks' stories that promises to be significantly cheaper.
Ear Worm: "Who's got the sweetest disposition?" Listen to it here!
Germans Love David Hasselhoff: In the Netherlands, Poland, Italy and the Nordic countries, Donald Duck is more popular than Mickey Mouse.
Also thanks to Italian and Nordic comics being translated he is also very popular in Germany and France.
Hilarious in Hindsight: In one comic book adaptation called Lost in the Andes!, Donald, Scrooge McDuck and their nephews discover a world that is similar to the world of Minecraft well before the video game was invented.
Memetic Badass: It's a bit of a running joke on 4chan's /co/ that Donald can basically win in any fight, up to and including destroying the Death Star single-handedly.
From the Silly Symphony comic in which he sends Goofy to a watery death, his satisfied pose in the last panel is often used to show him pimpwalking away from all sorts of catastrophes.
Nightmare Fuel: Donald going mad with godlike power in "Trombone Trouble". Along with him saying, "Power, power, POWER!" and then laughing evilly. The sharp teeth certainly didn't help when he was laughing evilly.
Donald roaring and taking a huge bite out of wood in "Donald's Double Trouble".
Donald literally turning into a devil at the end of "Soup's On".
Thanks to them editing the context, the prime time special "Down and Out With Donald Duck" treats Mickey's treatment of Donald in the short "Magician Mickey" as a moment that's left Donald severely messed up and revealed that it still gives him nightmares.
Older Than They Think: The name Donald Duck first appeared in a written poem, More Hoozoo in 1931. (However, the illustrated duck did not resemble the character as we know him.)
This is bound to happen to any youngster that discovers Donald through his moremodernappearances and takes time to realize the character is 77 years old.
Tear Jerker: The ending of "Donald's Happy Birthday" is a pretty good contender for one.
We're Still Relevant, Dammit: In computer.don, Donald is depicted as being pathetically behind the times (having a rotary phone and an old fashioned ice box that Goofy stops by to refill), and is repeatedly labeled a dweeb because of it.
