YMMV / The Misadventures of Skooks

Go To

  • Crosses the Line Twice:
    • Fred's abuse of Daphne would normally not be funny if it didn't occur in scenes such as Velma sounding like a phone on hold in part 1.
    • In part 5, Robin randomly says the n-word as a response to Fred saying "Gosh, imagine owning your own...", followed by Daphne saying she would love to own one.
  • Fountain of Memes:
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • "Just wait until I get my hands on that Bat-dick". Years later, Batman: Damned features a completely naked and uncensored Bruce Wayne, including his Bat-dick.
    • Red Dead Redemption 2 has a caveman in the game files that no one's been able to locate in-game. Due to his file name he is probably dead, so players speculate that the model may be frozen in ice if it's in the game. No one's been able to tell if he's the sheriff, though.
  • Ho Yay: Lots of jokes or edits involving same sex coupling.
    • Fred and Shaggy have a lot of it, with The Stinger to the final part being the ultimate example.
    • To say nothing of Shaggy and Skooks. Regardless of whether it's dreamed up, implied or explicit, we ALWAYS get a front row seat.
    • Velma ends up almost kissing Daphne in part 1, but Fred intervenes.
    • In part 5, when the... odd video of Velma dancing rather suggestively plays, Daphne remarks "Mmm, you bet!".
  • Memetic Mutation: The entire thing (especially on Tumblr and in the YTP community), but special mention goes to the following:
    • "Watch me swooce right in!"Explanation 
    • "Am I glad he's frozen in there and that we're out here and that he's the sheriff and that we're frozen out here and that we're in there and I just remembered! We're out here! What I wanna know is, where's the caveman?"Explanation 
  • Nightmare Fuel:
    • Shaggy using Velma's corpse as a puppet in part 5.
    "The head! Look at the head! Look at the head!"
    • ...Strongman?
    • "Yes, Shaggy, WE'LL ALL HAVE A SNACK."
      • "Batmilk?!"
    • "Don't let it bite ya. Don't let that spider bite ya!"
    • Fred getting impatient with Daphne wasting time in the photo booth.
    Fred: C'mon, Daff, get the fuck outta there, we have work to do. Daphne? *pulls out a gun* DAAAAAAAAAPHNEEE?!
    • Whenever Skooks freaks out. It's not pretty.
    • In part 5, Batman gets a hook (a very sharp one at that) through the eye. And the gasp he makes right after... Well, unless you know it's the narmtastic death wail that Leon makes in Resident Evil 4.
  • Signature Scene: The frozen caveman scene from Part 3 is the most widely reposted and widely quoted moment from the series, thanks to how well it encapsulates the YTPs' blend of Surreal Humor and Rapid-Fire Comedy.
