* {{baeraad555}}: WebVideo/{{Shadiversity}} really lost me with his reaction to ''VideoGame/EldenRing''. It's not that he didn't like it - it's not for everyone, and for a super-popular game like ''Elden Ring'' there's probably an element of HypeAversion for those who don't, too. It's the fact that when someone posted a response video pointing out a number of inaccuracies in his review (e.g., much of the information he claimed wasn't included ''is'' in the game, you just have to be willing to look for it - and any Soulsborn fan can tell you that for them, that's part of the fun) he showed up in the comments and insisted, in a series of amazingly long replies, that he was still 100% right. Also the fact that he tried to pull rank and claim that as a published writer himself, he was an expert on how much information needed to be provided. Yeah, dude, about [[Literature/ShadowOfTheConqueror that book you wrote?]] I've read it. It's boring - and what makes it boring is precisely that it ''does'' frontload itself with dry factual worldbuilding instead of letting anything be implied or gradually revealed. Again, if that's your thing, that's fine, but don't act like it's impossible for a reasonable person to disagree with you about something so inherently subjective as fiction.

* Samuel: I am never a fan of CreepyPasta in my honest opinion. It either never appeals to me or certain stories are NightmareRetardant. The only fiction I actually did find enjoyable is WebVideo/MarbleHornets due to its realism. However, and I might get some flak for this, the one [[CreepyPasta pasta]] that really rubbed me the wrong way is WebOriginal/JeffTheKiller, which I find his image quite amusing. Anyway, I'd like to go ahead and add a [[DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck certain moment]]. Young Jeff is now horribly disfigured, but he thinks that his "new image" fits his personality. When acting strange, his mother asks the doctor if he is crazy. The doctor says that it's only natural for patients to act that way as a result of painkillers. [[Film/WaynesWorld Excuse me? Baking powder]]? A patient acts very morbid, and yet the doctor suggests that's okay. For the sake of safety, when a patient like Jeff acts as such, leave him in the hospital! That is one of the worst moments I have ever read.

* Troper/IndyRevolution: For me, it was in Plinkett's response to the comments on his ''Film/RogueOne'' review. Some moron trashes ''Film/TheForceAwakens'' in hilariously broken English. What you'd expect is a clever/funny response. What you get? Plinkett simply shows a screencap of TFA's box office returns. Did...he forget about his ''Film/Titanic1997'' review? You know, the one where he says that the film can be the second-highest grossing film of all time and still be crap, and spends a large section of the video [[ViewersAreMorons explaining that the two are usually intertwined, and that crap tends to make the most money?]] And then you have the gall to dismiss all criticisms of a separate movie out of hand by essentially saying, "It made money, so it's good." '''Especially since''' ''Rogue One'' made a shit ton of money too, and you were all too happy to insult it and [[FanHater people who liked it]]. Fuck off.

* Tropers/ImSpidey2: I'm not that much of a fan of [=TechRax=]. While I do like some of his videos, I always found his commentary a bit annoying. I unsubscribed to him today however, upon seeing WebVideo/{{Pyrocynical}} trash his latest video, ''[[https://youtu.be/arVHjiNLDXY Casting Cockroaches + iPhone 7 Plus in Molten Aluminum!]]''. NauseaFuel aside, Tara (Tech himself) seems completely ignorant to the cockroaches[[note]]which seem to be the same breed, meaning that they are a pet-bought kind of roach[[/note]]' suffering (which, by the way, [[HellIsThatNoise you can hear their squeaking as they burn]]), even snickering a few times at them. I always found Tech to be a bit stupid, but this made him hit, as Pyro said, "a new low". And at the end, [[BlatantLies he outright just says that they're "asleep" at the end]]. [[{{Squick}} As one just clings to life in the corner of the tray.]] Yeah, you know what? Fuck you, Tara. You just lost a sub, and hopefully thousands more will follow after watching this twisted excuse of "entertainment" and waste of innocent life.
* Tropers/Bismuth83: [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1wWQb7GYP6d_FdrNts-DpQ Charriii5's]] Everything Wrong With videos for various games, while not as good as those produced by Dartigan, are still enjoyable to me. However, his response to the line "She's a woman, she doesn't know up from down" in his Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves video, was DEFINITELY a DMOS for me. Really? "Oh shit, incoming feminazis, abort video"? Not only are you kinda-sorta aligning yourself with Gamergate, a highly divisive movement, right there, you can't even bring yourself to say "That's SEXIST?!" WHAT?! Even more galling, as he has no problem with calling something racist!

* Togie: Prior to the early post-release days of VideoGame/PokemonXAndY, I really liked [=TamashiiHiroka=]. I found her Top 10s and her Pokémon beta/alpha videos interesting and entertaining. However, she began to gradually degrade in quality. Probably the first video that I found to be below par was her worst [[OlympusMons Legendary Pokémon]], where she tried to look at what she felt were the worst Legendaries competitively. The problem is, she compared many lesser legendaries to cover ones, which are ''[[PurposefullyOverpowered banned from almost every standard format anyway]]''. The most erroneous example was Jirachi, who made it on the list due to the infamous Paraflinch strategy getting nerfed, despite the fact that Jirachi doesn't need said strategy to be effective. Even to this day, I don't think Tamashii has recovered at all, and her stats are reflecting this. She used to get at least 300-500 thousand views on her videos, often breaking into the millions. However, many of her recent videos struggle to break even 100 thousand views.

* Tropers/DrZulu2010: I like ''WebVideo/WhatCultureWrestling'''s content, but the they handle Wrestling/JinderMahal's title victory at Backlash makes them act like the same [[SmartMark Smarks]] they were making fun of (especially Plumpy) but that's for another time. Instead I put the video on "Why Jinder Mahal will fails as a WWE Champion''. Not because of the video itself; I agree with most of Simon's case especially when it comes to not jumping the gun at calling him "the worst champion in the WWE" when his title reign just began but instead it's the title which is misleading and clickbaity. The biggest problem is that while Simon took a moment to truly say why Jinder's push might be risky as a business decision, he spends the rest of the video defending him and saying that with the correct way to be booked, he can bring a breath of fresh air to the promotion and mentioned how people already go on social media to condemn his push before it even started. This feels disjointed since, if more than anything, Simon wanted to play the devil's advocate (what the Why series serves for) but has to do something like this because his opinion is on the minority and he didn't want to upset the majority. I hope Jinder proves them wrong (though, being WWE, I also expect the worst) so What Culture can look themselves into a mirror and see how bad they have handled the situation in hindsight.

* [[{{Tropers/brightentayle}} brightentayle]]: I did enjoy a plenty of ''Top Hats And Champagne'' offerings, in which he takes videos from little-known, entitled and mindless console fanboys and criticizes their logic, or lack thereof. While his content is way more over-the-top than the rest of "Four Horsemen of PC Gaming" (a group which, apart from [=THaC=], consists of [=BulletBarry=], Rags and Fringy), he still provided fair points in defense of video games as a whole - at least, up until his thirty minute rant about [[{{WebVideo/Jimquisition}} Jim Sterling themself]], in which everyone's favourite PC elitist takes these points and, either out of sheer misunderstanding or bigotry, flips them around. To be specific, his victim was a [[{{VideoGame/Cuphead}} Cuphead]]-centered episode of Commentocracy - a show in which Jim plays Duke Amiel d'Hardcore, a pretentious 18th century aristocrat, quoting various [[{{Scrub}} gaming elitists]] on how other people should "git gud" at video games. Not even an actual episode of The Jimquisition. Just a silly video taking piss off silly things. Basically, [=THaC=]'s rather hamfisted interpretation of Commentocracy is that ''Jim is now hands down the advocate for mass casualization of video games, now that he thinks these perfectly normal quotes are bad'', a statement which could perfectly backfire on [=THaC=] himself, seeing how in most of his videos, he basically plays a posh, PC-obsessed cartoon villain to such a degree it's becoming hard to realize where Top Hats's honest opinion ends and wacky characterization begins. To reiterate, Jim's opinion on difficulties in video games is restated time and time again, and is more obvious if you watch their videos on [[{{VideoGame/DarkSouls}} the Dark Souls series]]: Jim can perfectly understand why games can be this easy or this difficult, and they really don't mind if the low or high skill floor in certain titles is justified. None of that has been brought to the drunken mind of Top Hats and Champagne, who decided to make an entire episode not in a dedicated video editor - but in '''a dedicated streaming program''', cracking a couple of jokes about his decreased production values which, as far as improv goes, are completely pointless. As cringeworthy as you might find Jim reciting scrublords while in makeup, Top Hats' attempts at humor, as well as understanding sarcasm, are just as bad, if not worse. Oh, oh, oh, and the comment section, too.

* Tropers/Metalhead14: I love WebOriginal/ScareTheater to death, but his "Desmond Is Amazing" video could have been handled a ''lot'' better, and hundreds of his other fans think so too. I get that he had good intentions, but the way he words everything is just ''awful'' and makes him seem incredibly dismissive of everything. He seemed way too easy on everyone involved; I'm not sure if he rushed this one out or was afraid of being politically incorrect, but he's usually better than this and this video didn't make him look very good. Desmond's situation is a '''very''' serious matter, and Scare didn't handle it properly. Thankfully, he's gotten back on his feet since, but that video really does deserve all the outrage it's gotten.

* Tropers/{{AustinDR}}: While I mostly watch ''WebVideo/BlackCriticGuy'' for his anime reviews, his reviews on films tend to be more of an iffier subject his more contentious reviews being films like ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda3'' and ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2''. But the one review that really irked me was his take on the infamous Netflix film ''Film/{{Cuties}}''. I found myself slightly agreeing with his points such as the film attempting to have a message about over sexualization being wrong (even if I think the film botched it by showing that there were little to no consequences for the girls acting out; rather the film looked like it was ''rewarding'' their behavior). But where I felt Tony missed the mark is exactly ''why'' people were outraged with the film: that would be the casting. Over 600 hundred girls auditioned for the main role and, if it isn't abundantly clear by now, children cannot consent to that kind of stuff. While you could say they accepted the role, there is little way that they would mentally be able to understand the full implications behind what they are being tasked to do. As such, the film shoots its own message in the foot by setting out doing what it preaches against.

* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: In Ottomagic Critic’s commentary on Logomax’s commentary on [[Website/GoAnimate Brendan Barney]]’s harsh message to The Previews Guy, Ottomagic Critic brings up the fact that The Previews Guy has raged in allcaps when correcting people on movie release information. So, what’s the next negative thing he says about The Previews Guy? It’s that he “uploads fucking [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Barney]] VHS openings”. Hold it right there! The Previews Guy has that username because he uploads all kinds of VHS and DVD openings, not just Barney ones. So, since when is associating with anything to do with Barney considered a crime against maturity? Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if Ottomagic Critic [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch hasn’t even watched Barney]]! This is where I gave up on even skimming through this video.

* Tropers/{{Gaucelm}}: I have been a fan of WebVideo/JoueurDuGrenier for years, however, my love for the show was ''really'' tested in the 2012 episode on NES game ''VideoGame/{{Platoon}}'' (and ''VideoGame/MetalGear1''). Already, it starts with a bad omen, being an extended skit parodying ''Film/RamboFirstBloodPartII'' which is more distracting - and unfunny - than anything. But the worst part is when he adresses the KarmaMeter of the game, then makes a comparison to real-life American soldiers by... parodying a photo of the Abu Ghraib scandal. That's right; he is so desperate to hate on the American military that he is willing to cherrypick an isolate torture scandal - of which the guilty soldiers were court-martialed - and that was 9 years old at this point. This just stank of dumb, bitter anti-Americanism from the authors, and because Americans are always AcceptableTargets (doubly so in French media), this was just very low-hanging, low-risk fruit. Even though Creator/DougWalker makes a surprise cameo at the end of the episode, I was still too disgusted to fully appreciate it. Among many Joueur du Grenier episodes, this is one of the only ones I never rewatched (apart from the ''Metal Gear 1'' section).

* ''Tropers/{{Thepenguinking2}}'': Now, lemme preface this first: I am not a fan of Creator/ElectronicArts in the slightest. While I stood up for them in the past, I realize that they've done a lot of scummy stuff, more than even the average Triple A company (The ratings trickery in the mobile ''VideoGame/DungeonKeeper'' game, gutting multiple studios they've bought out, barely even giving ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesBattleForNeighborville'' a chance before cutting support, etc.). So, as to expect, [[https://youtu.be/CPBlnyM9IMc this video by Thomas Game Docs]] about EA stealing someone's game concept caught my interest. On top of all the horrible things they've done already, EA also committed plagarism? This sounds morbidly fascinating! But then it turned out the video was talking about ''Zuma''. A game developed by Creator/PopcapGames. While yes, Popcap is currently owned by EA (And after how horribly handled ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesHeroes'' and ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies 3'' were, I can't deny that they're basically using them as a flesh puppet at this point), Zuma was made years before EA took them over. This includes the sequel, and the DS port, which was released four months before Popcap was finally owned by EA. While the video does mention that Popcap was bought out by EA, it misinformedly states that the sequel was made during this time, which is just plain untrue, as I mentioned before. I don't entirely know if ''Zuma Blitz'' was made before or after the EA acquisition, but the video doesn't even mention it at any point, so that question doesn't matter. But hey! As long as you're mocking [[AcceptableTargets Electronic Arts]], rational thinking is just optional! This is my first time watching one of his videos, but after this miserably uninformed display, it's likely my last.

* Grotadmorv: I was a fan of LetsPlay/WhoIsThisGit until his "unpopular opinions" video. Everything he said came off as unusually and needlessly rude. I made a comment about ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee'', saying that I'm a Peach main and that I found it weird that I was watching a match without all the tryhard tactics I use while playing. His response? "[[CantTakeCriticism How about a comment that actually relates to the video? This is why people can't stand Smash players, because you can't wait to have a pop at others for "playing it wrong" even when that isn't the focus of a video.]]" He deleted this comment right after posting it, probably because he wanted to rant without facing consequences. After this bad experience, I don't watch his videos anymore.

* PugBuddies: I had been dissatisfied with [[https://www.pottermore.com Pottermore]] and its lack of specificity for some time, the article on Remus Lupin's parents and backstory being the only thing I really liked. However, the article on Draco Malfoy was the true Dethroner for me. Let me get something straight first: I realize that Draco is a deeply flawed character; I don't believe he was a JerkWithAHeartOfGold all along; and I think he looks terrible in leather pants. But for the last two books, I identified with him. His experiences in HBP and DH—his nervous breakdown, his hesitation and hedging, the inner conflict he exhibited—echoed my own, growing up in (and later leaving) an abusive fundamentalist household. From the way he behaved in those books, I thought he was a kindred spirit, one who was losing his faith in the cruel god he was raised to serve, knowing he's without allies on either his side or the other side. He was fighting what he thought was his destiny, and it was killing him. That Rowling decided to send him out with a whimper instead of a bang was annoying, but there was always fanfic. And then I read her Pottermore article on him. Turns out, all of that inner conflict that made me identify so strongly with him? Didn't exist. He was always a JerkWithAHeartOfJerk, and those two years of horror BARELY improved his demeanor. Leaving aside how infuriating this Flanderization was, it brings up some pretty horrifying implications for readers like me. "Oh, yeah, that pain and guilt you're feeling over the choices you've been told all your life were right? That's just your inconveniently awakened conscience, asshole! Think you're becoming a better person? HA! You'll never be a hero! You have nothing to offer society! The best thing you can do for the future is stay out of its way. Maybe your kid will be decent, if you play your cards right, but none of that hell you went through can transform you into a hero. You'll always be a villain." I haven't been to Pottermore since, and I don't plan on reading or watching HarryPotterAndTheCursedChild, either. If Rowling thinks that little of readers who identify with Draco, then I see no need to support her latest efforts.

* Tropers/{{Phobosong}}: Voice of Reason's "Balanced Perspective" of the first Equestria Girls with ToonkriticY2k and Past Analysis is a mess, and shows every overused and flimsy argument against the movie, and quite frankly, the problems that plague the MLP analysis community (mind you, this is coming from someone who wasn't even ''that'' big of a fan of the first one, and knew it had plenty of flaws). Even if you don't like EquestriaGirls, it's clear he has a massive BiasStreamroller against it, especially when he mentions how high the movie would be on his "Top Ten Worst MLP Episodes" if it were an episode. One particularly bad part is when, upon hearing that the movie didn't have ''that'' much fanservice, throws in a bunch of references to the show such as Pinkie's party cannon line and a powered up Rainbow taking Scootaloo for a ride in the party as a sort of "take that". While one could argue that there was some fanservice (the Derpy in the credits is a good example), it's really presumptuous to assume that every single one of those references is just "pandering". Believe it or not, [=VoR=], sometimes, writers just want to make little references to past things done by themselves or by other writers on this show they've been working on. But no, just assume that that party cannon line was made just to appease bronies, and not a fun, ironic joke [=McCarthy=] was making that referenced an older episode of hers. Just assume that scene of Rainbow flying with Scootaloo is fanservice, and not just a little nod to how Rainbow and Scootaloo had just gotten a nice friendship in the show. Just assume everything's about you and other bronies. There's other flaws, like scoffing at the idea that Sunset's defeat was a nice tribute to Nightmare Moon's defeat, saying it was just a rehash. This completely ignores the thematic reasons for this similarity: both Sunset and NM had feelings of anger and resentment, turned to magic, and were suddenly taken over by something powerful and evil, only to be freed from their monstrous torment by the Elements of Harmony. ''Of course'' they'd be similar. But, like many reviewers, he seemed to completely miss that Sunset was shocked by her transformation, or rather, he couldn't be bothered to notice that, and what that said about her character. For something called a "Balanced Perspective", [=VoR's=] biased, obnoxious review takes up the spotlight, he has absolutely no intention on being balanced or fair himself, and it ''really'' hurts the review to an infuriating degree.

** {{Tropers/enbyaxolotl}}: I find the video to be particularly pretentious and very self-serving in regards to how Emperor Lemon supposedly views normies. I'm honestly shocked anybody can take it seriously, the video to me reads like some bizarre manifesto, when it's supposed to be a take down of a YouTuber. It's pretty much just a justification for him viewing himself as superior to Behind the Meme, when really they're both just humans.

* Tropers/{{chucknormie}}: I didn't like the ''WebVideo/YouTube'' ''Rewind 2018'' for many reasons, but I can at least tolerate or understand why they did those things. The most popular [=YouTubers=] like LetsPlay/PewDiePie, Creator/ShaneDawson, WebVideo/IDubbbzTV, WebVideo/FouseyTube, WebVideo/RiceGum, Creator/TanaMongeau, and everyone ever associated with Team 10 being left out and replaced with a cast of no-names (excluding Creator/CaseyNeistat and Creator/LillySingh)? Defensible. The wooden acting and cringey dialogue? Defensible. "Old media" celebrities like Creator/WillSmith hogging the spotlight? Defensible. What I couldn't defend, however, was the moment in the middle of the video when the [=YouTubers=] take a break from recapping viral trends of 2018 to pat themselves on the back for "having the bravery" to talk about controversial topics like mental illness or LGBT issues. The problem is that [=YouTube=] is notorious for demonetizing videos that discuss those topics and many more deemed "controversial" because they don't consider it to be advertiser friendly, which makes this line completely hypocritical and insulting to every creator who's actually tried to have a frank discussion on these topics and ended up being unable to earn money from their videos because of it. This particular segment made me realize there's a steep gap in how [=YouTube=] executives believe the site to be and how it actually is.

* Tropers/Amber72004: [[https://youtu.be/yfnuu4TtlZI this video about the documentary of South Park]] by Italian Youtuber Apocaloso, The most of the video is fine, but when he said that animation is genre, which something that [[FandomEnragingMisconception makes animation fans angry]]. Animation is a medium, not a genre, The medium itself predates film and it's one of the most intensely popular mediums as comics and literature, The YouTuber himself needs to some more research when he makes his videos next time.

* [=DevNameless=] So, before this DMOS video aired, I had no idea who Colleen Ballinger was, her "Miranda Sings" videos, nor any of the controversy an allegations surrounding her. I admit, it probably wouldn't be something I watched anyways. Dear god, though, her "apology" video "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceKMnyMYIMo hi.]]" is quite easily the worst way to handle drama I have ever seen. Now, normally, I wouldn't consider a video addressing things a real-life creator did to be fitting for a DMOS, but considering the very nature of the video and what she does in it, I cannot believe in good faith that it wasn't also meant to be genuine content, so to me, it's fair game. The reason I believe it's content? The fact this supposed video addressing allegations of grooming and pedophilia is delivered in the form of a song, because clearly that topic is the perfect time to act like a QuirkyUkulele girl on camera. The actual song itself is legendarily stupid, basically being a long diatribe saying the accusations are overblown, that people are just harassing her for clout without looking deeper into it, and that people don't have a right to criticize her because they've probably done bad things too. I wouldn't even mind if that was her message if she delivered in a well thought out way, addressing each point, going over why she thinks that way, and trying to give a defense, since, while I do believe and listen to people who make these kinds of accusations, I'm willing to give people a chance to make a defense. Unfortunately, she's completley squandered that all that with this stupid idea that makes her seem like she's not taking this all seriously. Perhaps the biggest moment where I realized just how painful this was came early on, when she says "They told me not to say what I wanna say, but they never said I couldn't ''sing'' what I wanna say", which feels like she's saying "OMG look how quirky and eccentric I am. How could someone like me possibly do something horrible like you're all saying".

** [=DevNameless=]: Related to the above, I've heard people talk about Red Letter Media's Star Wars Prequel reviews enough that I feel like they're a SacredCow to some, but I'm still going to call out Mr. Plinkett for his FanHater tendencies and saying people who prefer the prequels to the original trilogy are wrong. I find being a FanHater to be one of the most obnoxious qualities a reviewer can have, no matter who they are, and it's an insult to anyone who might actually like the subject of a view but is open to hearing a critique. I feel like I especially am upset in this case because these are the reviews that codified video essays, and really shaped a lot of online discourse, and I don't think this was a good influence in the slightest. To me, it's like an inverse of the infamous "If you don't buy Donkey Kong Country, you are stupid" quote from ''Series/GamingInTheClintonYears'', just reversed to attack someone who likes something instead of someone who doesn't.

* Tropers/Izzy1: To be honest, ''WebVideo/GradeAUnderA'''s video "THE YOUTUBERS COMPLAINING ABOUT DRAMA RANT (Exposing Matthew Santoro)" rubbed me the wrong way, specifically the part where he insulted LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}. Now, before you make assumptions, I don't follow Markiplier or watch his stuff, but the fact that Grade was insulting him based on his appearance (having dyed red hair) and for calling himself "Markimoo" (which I heard is something his fans call him) rather than what he actually had to say was disappointing. And when he addressed this in his followup video saying that nobody is immune to criticism, I had 2 problems with that: 1. He was completely missing the point of why people were mad at him, for the most part, thinking that people were mad because Markiplier dyed his hair, initially pink for charity and later red out of respect for a dead friend, and saying he shouldn't be immune to criticism as a result, especially since Mark apparently caused more drama with his video. While I'm not sure if that's true, I think I can say that a lot of people, myself included, were more miffed about the way you attacked him for petty reasons, rather than that. 2. He makes a huge point about saying that everyone should be open to criticism, yet on [[https://np.reddit.com/r/GradeAUnderA/comments/4ht7fr/transparency_is_key_more_info_in_comments/ Reddit, he tried to delete a thread criticizing him for getting "annoyed" by it]]. Honestly, I was starting to like this guy's content, but these events turned me off from his videos.

* fluffything: Normally, I like LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}. He seems like a pretty cool and nice guy most of the time. Which makes the following DMOS all the worse. For me, his worst moment was during his charity LP in May in which he played ''Yoshi's Island'' with Wade and [[FanNickname Stone-Faced Tyler]]. During the playthrough, they answered questions from fans. One of which was "What is your favorite Pokemon?" and Mark stating he didn't like Pokemon. Now, him not being a fan of the series isn't the problem. He's entitled to his opinion. The DMOS part is that he acted like a total douche about it. For one thing, he snarked that all Pokemon games are essentially the same. Not only is this innacurate, since Pokemon games do have some degree of variety to them (Many games have features only exclusive to that particular version), but it's also hypocritical. Many games follow some sort of formula in terms of gameplay, meaning one could argue that the various sequels spin-offs and fan-games of ''Five Nights At Freddy's'' Mark has played are essentially "the same game". Second, he took the whole "If you could choose between ending world hunger and making Pokemon real, which starter would you choose?" meme seriously. He does realize that's a joke, right? Apparently not, since he then remarks about how horrible the world would be if Pokemon actually existed. [[SarcasmMode Because, ya know, pointing out the horrible aspects of a childhood fantasy is soooo mature.]] But, the worst example of his douchiness is how he acts like Pokemon fans are idiots for getting excited for any upcoming games (Again, tying into the whole "it's the same" hypocritical argument mentioned beforehand). It's hypocritical since Mark has gushed over various games in the past as well. The whole thing just comes off as immature, rude, and utterly hypocritical. Again, if Mark doesn't like the Pokemon games, fine. However, he could've handled answering that fan's question in a nicer manner than being a total dick about it.
* Tropers/{{alienhunter}}: I used to love watching LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}, never missing a video that he uploaded. But ever since I watched his video on Bendy and the Ink Machine, I can't help but feel like he really is overreacting to everything, trying way too hard to be funny and pretending to be scared by everything, even if just a shadow. So whenever he gets around to finishing ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtCandys 3'', I don't know if I'll ever watch another video of his again without feeling like it's tainted.

* fluffything: Normally, I like LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}.WebVideo/{{Markiplier}}. He seems like a pretty cool and nice guy most of the time. Which makes the following DMOS all the worse. For me, his worst moment was during his charity LP in May in which he played ''Yoshi's Island'' with Wade and [[FanNickname Stone-Faced Tyler]]. During the playthrough, they answered questions from fans. One of which was "What is your favorite Pokemon?" and Mark stating he didn't like Pokemon. Now, him not being a fan of the series isn't the problem. He's entitled to his opinion. The DMOS part is that he acted like a total douche about it.

* Troper/BronyOftheOctaves: Personally, I used to enjoy MLP-Movie reviewer Hunter Reviews (or as his channel is called [=HeadHunter=] Productions now) because he played off this review show as a part of the MLP Universe, criticizing bad movies. However, he eventually began to do a series that didn't catch my attention, but it did garner form mix opinion called "It Sucked But I Still Played It", which is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. All was fine... until he pulled a complete 180 and did a video entitled: "VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys: It Sucked But I Still Played It". At first, I figured it'd be a video of him just criticizing the difficulty and just not finding it fun, similar to HypeBacklash. What was it instead? A complete BiasSteamroller criticizing the game for being popular, with Hunter giving basically a huge "FUCK YOU!" to the fanbase, LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}, LetsPlay/JackSepticEye, and even Scott Cawthon! It completely felt like a big middle finger to not just fans of the game, but to Mark's Fans, Jack's fans, and even those who respect Scott. It didn't help the comment section was filled with a slew of people attacking each other on whether or not Hunter was in the right. It's even considered Hunter's most polarizing video, and quite honestly made some fans feel he developed a huge SmallNameBigEgo type of thing.

This makes his argument highly hypocritical and brings up a requirement to know how he defines "lolicon".

* Tropers/AspieFangirl1984: I really hate the Virgin vs Chad meme. I used to find it funny, but it seems like it devolved into "Thing I like vs thing I don't like." and it just... annoys me. Many of the reasons for the "Virgin" side being inferior also tend to be quite weak (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Franchise/StarWars Rey is inferior to Ahsoka]] is that... she's human?[[note]] Although I would like to see a non-human protagonist [[/note]]) or stupid (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Film/CaptainMarvel Carol Danvers]] is inferior to [[Film/AlitaBattleAngel Alita]] is because... her gender was changed for no reason?[[note]] Carol Danvers was always a woman, although the mantle of Captain Marvel (which she's held for nearly ten years now) was originally held by a man, who was given a rather divisive [[spoiler:GenderFlip]] in the film in question[[/note]]) And then there's [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/438/423/415.png this one]].

Also, both shows are excellent, and I highly doubt that Creator/NDStevenson "cherry picks" critics, considering that's not how Website/RottenTomatoes works. Also, what I ''really'' hate is how this meme isn't comparing two shows or characters, it's comparing two RealLife people, (who I would honestly love to see collaborate on a graphic novel, but that's beside the point).

** [=DevNameless=]: I'd second this with an added bonus of HarsherInHindsight. The sheer vitriol towards Sakamoto was hard to take for me originally, but it's become near impossible for me to get any enjoyment out of after learning about some of the behind the scenes issues that occurred with the translation of the game. I'll admit that the original Japanese script isn't winning any awards, sure, but knowing that many of the problems in the presentation stem from errors in the translation process, such as being headed by someone without much understanding of the language he was converting it to, only exacerbates isues like Slowbeef going on hateful diatribes towards someone whose crime is more just a misstep than anything else. He's allowed to be frustrated, and I don't mind if he didn't like the experience (I myself find the game something of a guilty pleasure, since I think the gameplay was pretty decent, just overshadowed by how the story goes wrong), but seeing him lose his mind to the point of directing his hate to a real-life person is just unsettling, and doesn't make for an enjoyable experience.

* Trialman: I used to enjoy the Randomizer Nuzlockes done by [=MrShawnTRods=], until he did one with [[VideoGame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon Ultra Sun]]. Specifically, it was on episode 6 or 8, I can't be bothered checkingchecking, where he had a shiny Froakie. He eventually got the Froakie to evolve, and due to the randomizer, it became a Chatot. His immediate reaction was to release it, making it dead. His reasoning being that Chatot is weak. Firstly, I really disliked this, as it defies the message that the Pokemon series itself has, about not judging just on strength. Secondly, it defies part of the appeal of a Nuzlocke in the first place, being that you need to take what you get, no matter how strong or weak it is. And thirdly, it was the culmination of my big problem with the whole playthrough up to that point, that he was being far too negative. He constantly claimed he would try to be positive, while yelling at the game for completely trivial reasons, and this moment was what fully cemented his extreme negativity. Well, since he had that release knee-jerk reaction, I decided my knee-jerk reaction will be a dislike, and a click on the "unsubscribe" button.
* {{Tropers/ScarletNebula}} Okay so i usually liked Infamous Sphere's Infamous Queer video series, they're usually pretty alright. Not so much her review of ''Film/TheGrandBudapestHotel'' however, now she discovered she doesn't actually like the movie anymore, fair enough, but throughout the video i feel like it's just completely morose and depressing for no real reason. Like i can see why reviewers make video funny, cause otherwise the video is miserable and that's what this review was, miserable. You're reviewing a quirky Wes Anderson movie! Lighten up! Needless to say i stopped watching her videos cause it's not worth it if it's just gonna make me depressed.
* {{Tropers/HaileySawyer101}} This Dethroning Moment of Suck comes from JHall's Pokemon Sun Playthrough comic series. Since this series doesn't have its own section, I figured it would be appropriate to post this in the "OTHER" folder. Get up and grab a snack because I have quite a bit to say. Now I'll be honest. I actually do like this series and I look forward to reading new episodes every Thursday. It addresses various issues with Sun and Moon, such as the long wait to get your starter at the beginning of the game due to excessive dialogue, and at times, pokes fun at them. I also like some of Jhall's Pokemon, with my favorite being Mr. Snuggles, especially when he evolves into a talking Incinaroar that's a calm intelligent 'mon who can turn into a raging wrestler at a moment's notice. Hell, at times, it can even get a little emotional. Despite my love for the series, I'll admit that at times it can fall flat on its face in big and small ways. I think one of the most prominent examples of this for me is in episode 83. So in this episode, Jhall is visiting the Vast Poni Canyon and his Charjabug named Chompers is evolving because of the magnetic field in the area. When it evolves into Vikavolt, it's revealed by the Rotom Dex that Chompers' physical defense lowers when it evolves and Jhall says, "Right. Of course. Did God make this region as a prank or something?" Now what's wrong with this episode you may ask? Well let's take this one step at a time. So the plot of the episode is just one joke about how Charjabug's defense is lower when it evolves and because of this, its evolved form Vikavolt faints when it gets hit by a tiny rock and when Jhall finds out about the lowered defense thing he gets angry and rants about it for a bit. And that's it. That's all you get from that episode. There is a bit at the beginning of episode 84 where Jhall tells Chompers not to get hit and Chompers gets hit but it still isn't all that much. Now I wouldn't have much of a problem with this but the joke feels rather lackluster, as it doesn't seem fleshed out enough to have any sort of real punch. Now here are some interesting facts about Charjabug and Vikavolt. While it's true that Vikavolt's physical defense is lower than Charjabug's, it isn't anything to be too worried about. According to Bulbapedia, [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Charjabug's physical defense]] is 95 while [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Vikavolt_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Vikavolt's]] is only 90. So right here we're only looking at a five point difference, which really isn't all that drastic if you ask me. Also, at level 49, Charjabug is able to learn [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#By_leveling_up Iron Defense]], which boosts physical defense by two whole stages, making the whole "lowered physical defense upon evolution" thing a non-issue. So why I'm I bringing up this information? Well because I feel like Jhall could've used some of it to make the Charjabug/Vikavolt joke work better. In the series, Jhall's Charjabug is capable of being a beast in battle, as seen in episode 47. For the Pokemon who require being in an area with a magnetic field, such as Vast Poni Canyon, to evolve like Charjabug for example, they need to level up in that area first to trigger the evolution. So here's what I had in mind. At the beginning of the episode, we see a battle where Chompers uses Acrobatics or one of its other moves like Spark or Crunch to take out a wild or trainer owned Pokemon in one hit. Now while the levels of Jhall's Pokemon aren't mentioned in most of the series, I'll assume that Chompers is at level 48 due to the fact that Jhall is at Vast Poni Canyon, which you visit towards the end of Sun and Moon before you face the Elite Four. After Chompers wins, Jhall's Rotom Dex informs him that Chompers grew to level 49 and that it can learn Iron Defense, which boosts physical defense by two whole stages. The Rotom Dex asks Jhall if he'd like to replace one of Chomper's moves to allow it to learn Iron Defense. Jhall then arrogantly rejects the offer. The Rotom Dex says, "Are you sure? Its physical defense is going to be lowered by five points when it evolves. It also keeps its weakness to Rock type moves as well." Once again, Jhall rejects the offer and says that Chompers is perfect the way he is. When Chompers evolves, Jhall is very excited to the point where he's bouncing off of the walls of the panel or panels and says, "Yeah! No one can beat him now!" Then, Chompers is suddenly hit by a rock and gets taken down easily. Then, Jhall gets angry and says, "Did God make this region as a prank or something?" to which the Rotom Dex calmly replies, "No. You're just an idiot." Jhall's anger then intensifies to the point where he tries to hurt the Rotom Dex. Also, it could just be me but I feel like Jhall only looked at the base stats for Charjabug and Vikavolt and just made the episode without doing any additional research. As a result, the joke also feels rather rushed and lazy. It's a shame too because I know this series is capable of being really damn funny and putting more time and effort into its jokes.
* Tropers/CaptainTedium: I usually like blameitonjorge's videos, but the video "6 Surprisingly Dark Adaptations of Kid-Friendly Media" had one entry that rubbed me the wrong way. Said entry was the one for ''VideoGame/BombermanActZero''. I understand that the game is one of the most reviled DarkerAndEdgier reboots ever, and I can't really say that I am interested in it, but what I take issue with is how the entry made the hasty generalization that all DarkerAndEdgier reinventions of kids' media are crap and gave more emphasis on ''Act Zero'' being a shitty reboot than on how significantly darker it was than the original ''VideoGame/{{Bomberman}}'', when the whole point of the countdown was to list adaptations of media aimed at children that were unexpectedly darker than the original work, not to kvetch about dark adaptations that are considered inferior to the source material. Heck, it's clear that blameitonjorge didn't check for consistency, as the entries were narrated by different people and the same list had [[SamuraiJack/TropesSeason5 the 2017 revival]] of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'' that aired on Creator/AdultSwim, which actually acknowledged that it was well-received in addition to explaining how it was darker than the original Creator/CartoonNetwork run. The video hasn't made me give up on checking out blameitonjorge's videos, but I really hope that next time he makes sure that the videos' entries aren't narrated by people who miss the point of the video.
* Tropers/{{Keyblade333}}: I used to really enjoy ''Franchise/DragonBall'' youtuber [=AnimeAjay=] due to his breakdowns of various episodes within the franchises in terms of animation, and the production behind them. However what ultimately made me cross into disliking him was his reaction to ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'' episode 71's English dub, where he absolutely lost his shit on twitter about Hit saying: "[[AscendedMeme Time to make the Doughnuts]]". While YMMV on the ''Super'' dub, the sheer levels of anger he displayed towards the dub and community for disagreeing with him was enough to make me unsub and unfollow on twitter, especially when he became a {{Hypocrite}} and called people out for being toxic, but was being toxic himself to people who disagreed with him. His negative attitude also caused his blind fans to actually target the voice actors in involved as well. Even though many other youtubers in the community called him out on his behavior, he refused to apologize, even attacking other content creators over it.
* Tropers/CJCroen1393: Turkey Tom is already fairly controversial, but his video on WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter's [=IndieGogo=] campaign ''really'' qualifies for one simple reason: He briefly accuses Mr. Enter of being a pedophile. Oh I'm sorry, did I say "briefly"? I meant "repeatedly" and "at least five or six times", to the point that after a while, [[PaedoHunt it doesn't even sound like a joke anymore]], it sounds like Turkey Tom ''actually believes'' that Mr. Enter is a pedophile. What's his evidence? That he wanted to make a cartoon about children and has written "atrocious books" (that TT [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch admitted to not actually reading]]) told from the perspective of children. As Mr. Enter himself ends up pointing out in a response video he made, by that logic ''everyone who has ever made a children's cartoon'' should be considered a pedophile. I get that he's a ranting commentator and that sometimes, that job involves some insults, but this is just taking things way too far.
** Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I remember another unnecessary insult made by Turkey Tom, and he even acknowledged that it was unnecessary! In his video where he reads some user comments from his "The Problems with Anime" video, he at one point responds to a user who made an immature comment that said something like "Fuck you, anime is awesome." But when Turkey Tom points out that said user has a profile picture from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', he says something like "[[FanHater Real mature! Really shows how much of a stupid baby you are!]] [[{{Hypocrite}} But I don't know you, so I can't make that assumption.]]" If Turkey Tom knew that he shouldn't make assumptions like that, why did he insult that other user in that way in the first place? So basically, this moment can be summed up by Mr. Enter's catchphrase: "What I'm doing is wrong, I know it's wrong, but I'm gonna do it anyway!"
* LampreyKurage: So, about gillythekid; he isn't bad, but I wouldn't call him good. But one part of his ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' Flash Games video stuck out to me, and not in a good way. Near the end, he talks about how he learned that some of the games he played in past Flash Games were made using Scratch, which is a program for schools that teaches kids how to make flash games. Since it's for kids, it does have limited features, which is one of his prime complaints for it. I could tolerate that...but then at the very end he started insulting a fanmade Zelda game made on Scratch (with admittedly below average controls, but still). Not only does he not understand that the features are limited so Scratch is easily accessible to kids, he's essentially badmouthing a child who could've potentially wanted to be good at programming and damaging their self-esteem by insulting it and not giving them any constructive criticism.
* Tropers/BattleMaster: I've enjoyed reading Website/NotAlwaysRight for years, but recently there was a story about a woman at a pet grooming service having a freakout over being charged $3 more than she was expecting. [[spoiler: We're suddenly told that the OP later found out that the woman killed her dogs and was arrested]] with no warning. Many readers were understandably upset about this and said that especially given that Not Always Right is typically a family-friendly humor site, a trigger warning would have been appropriate. Two days later, a story was published with a title that mocked trigger warnings. Not cool at all.
* Tropers/DukeNukem4ever: ''Ruby Rose [=VS=] Ragna the Bloodedge'' Death Battle Exhibition is a true mess from start to end (what was with [[spoiler: Ruby using almost every signature move of hers and thus winning the fight and Ragna dying for not using any special attacks of his?]]) But no, the main problem is the episode starting with a teaser for the future [=RWBY=] episodes. After seeing this advertisement I immediately knew who would win this battle. [[spoiler: And I was completely right, because Screwattack and Rooster Teeth care so much about their franchise that they are willing to let its [[CreatorsPet characters]] completely obliterate their enemies in Death Battle, One Minute Melee and Death Battle Exhibition (granted, Weiss eventually losing in one Death Battle episode downplays this a bit, but my point still stands.]]
** Tropers/SavageSamurai: I agree but for slightly different reasons. [[spoiler: The main problem is that it's a gigantic advertisement for RWBY. If you're watching the Website/YouTube release, there is even an ad for RWBY Volume 6. However, anyone who's read the description notes that it's a battle between two scythe wielders. Ragna uses his scythe two times and it isn't even apparent that he's used it. I had to actually pause the video several times to even realise he'd used it. Now I don't care that it was biased; to an extent every DBX is biased because the victor is usually determined by the animator anyway. I don't care that it was an ad by Creator/RoosterTeeth. OK that's a lie, I do care but it doesn't mean much in the long run so I can forgive it. I mean if you have the means to promote it, then by all means promote it. However, the thing that gets me is that there was a much better person they could've used to fight Ragna, promote the show and and actually make the fight more interesting and make sense; Qrow Branwen. His Semblance is [[WindsOfDestinyChange inflicting bad luck]] so an argument could be made that he actually could beat Ragna. They're both CosmicPlaythings and use [[ShapeshifterWeapon weapons that are primarily swords but can shapeshift into scythes if the wielder wants]]. For all intents and purposes the description essentially lies and the match would've been much more interesting had Ruby been replaced by her uncle]].
* Tropers/{{chucknormie}}: I didn't like the ''WebVideo/YouTube'' ''Rewind 2018'' for many reasons, but I can at least tolerate or understand why they did those things. The most popular [=YouTubers=] like LetsPlay/PewDiePie, Creator/ShaneDawson, WebVideo/IDubbbzTV, WebVideo/FouseyTube, WebVideo/RiceGum, Creator/TanaMongeau, and everyone ever associated with Team 10 being left out and replaced with a cast of no-names (excluding Creator/CaseyNeistat and Creator/LillySingh)? Defensible. The wooden acting and cringey dialogue? Defensible. "Old media" celebrities like Creator/WillSmith hogging the spotlight? Defensible. What I couldn't defend, however, was the moment in the middle of the video when the [=YouTubers=] take a break from recapping viral trends of 2018 to pat themselves on the back for "having the bravery" to talk about controversial topics like mental illness or LGBT issues. The problem is that [=YouTube=] is notorious for demonetizing videos that discuss those topics and many more deemed "controversial" because they don't consider it to be advertiser friendly, which makes this line completely hypocritical and insulting to every creator who's actually tried to have a frank discussion on these topics and ended up being unable to earn money from their videos because of it. This particular segment made me realize there's a steep gap in how [=YouTube=] executives believe the site to be and how it actually is.
* Tropers/IzzyUneasy: So, here I am, wanderin' on Fanbyte, havin' the time of my life. I got alarmed when they separated characters into tiers(i hate tiers), but then I saw that they called Yoshi a tax evader... and my heart dropped down my gut. Enough said.
* Tropers/Metalhead14: I love WebOriginal/ScareTheater to death, but his "Desmond Is Amazing" video could have been handled a ''lot'' better, and hundreds of his other fans think so too. I get that he had good intentions, but the way he words everything is just ''awful'' and makes him seem incredibly dismissive of everything. He seemed way too easy on everyone involved; I'm not sure if he rushed this one out or was afraid of being politically incorrect, but he's usually better than this and this video didn't make him look very good. Desmond's situation is a '''very''' serious matter, and Scare didn't handle it properly. Thankfully, he's gotten back on his feet since, but that video really does deserve all the outrage it's gotten.
* Thefreepup: I'll admit, while I admire fellow deviantartist Cartuneslover16 for her ability to replicate any cartoon's style, there was one moment in particular that has soured my view on her. It was when she uploaded a picture honoring her late mom's birthday. The picture did a good job at creating such a heartwarming moment, up until I read the part of the description where she mentioned that the reason she added WesternAnimation/UncleGrandpa to the pic was because it renewed her faith in Cartoon Network while trash talking WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo While I can understand and respect her dislike for the show (even if I find it [[SoOkayItsAverage okay overall]]), I do not like how she chose to bring it up in a deviation that is meant to be a touching commemoration for someone who's passed away. It just makes her come across as a petty, whiny brat, which she most certainly isn't. This, combined with how I feel that she has gotten too brash and bitchy towards things she dislikes, has given me a reason to no longer be a fan of her or her work. I'm sorry, Cartuneslover16, but consider this goodbye for now.
* Tropers/{{distantsun}}: WebVideo/LordKaT's comment about Creator/TerryPratchett's "brain degenerating into mush" in his 10 Hardest Adventure Games video, in light of Pratchett's diagnosis with Alzheimer's, was at best an astoundingly bad accidental choice of words and at worst an unfunny, offensive attempt at a joke. I know a lot of LK's humor is on the dark, controversial side, and usually I can appreciate it, but this seriously crossed a line for the sake of an offhand comment that wasn't even particularly amusing even if you're not offended by it.
* Tropers/SickBritKid: While I normally like WebVideo/{{Benzaie}} and his charming, snarky French attitude, his video "TOP 5: Why ''Zelda Twilight Princess'' SUCKS" was just downright stupid (it was nothing but petty nitpicks that were used against the game a full five years ago when it came out), ignorant ([[{{Hypocrite}} really, Benzaie? You're gonna rail against ''Twilight Princess'' for having items that aren't used outside of the dungeons you acquire them in... Even though that showed up in ''Ocarina of Time'', which you shill on endlessly? Or you're gonna bitch about the final item being another Clawshot and how much that sucks... despite the longshot from Ocarina of Time basically just being a longer hookshot]]? Oh, and you're also gonna rail on the game's graphics, completely ignoring the fact that it was made for the UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube and then ported to the UsefulNotes/{{Wii}}?), and just came off like he was trying to bait fans of ''Twilight Princess'' into flaming him and get a whole bunch of views by either the TP fans who came to debate and/or flame him and the TP haters who came to defend his points of view. All in all, it was one of the worst game reviews since X-Play's ''Your Childhood Sucked: Final Fantasy 7''.
* fluffything: Normally, I like ''WebVideo/WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou'' and I find Nash (and Tara) to be pretty funny. But, good gods of bacon do I have a problem with the ending of the ''Regret At Leisure'' episode. Three words: [[FanHater Arlo's Pony Paradise]]. This isn't a good-natured joke at the series itself. No, it's a mean-spirited TakeThat towards the fandom. It basically boils down to "Bronies (and Pegasisters) are stupid for taking a cartoon geared towards little girls seriously!". And, yes, that is Nash's actual opinion on the fandom. Look, if you don't like a show, fine. But being a total dick towards a fandom you don't like. Just because they like to discuss the mythos and everything in a serious and mature discussion doesn't make them stupid.
* GGGG: ''Weekly Manga Recap'' from the 4th of September 2012, previously titled "[[Manga/{{Naruto}} Tobi is]] [[spoiler:Obito]]!" This was just after the non-legal scans hit the web and the massive title was spread across the TGWTG banner in huge lettering, meaning anybody who followed the ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' manga legally (from ''Magazine/ShonenJump'', etc.) or was following the anime had the big reveal spoiled. They were nice enough to change it later to "Tobi is...!" It felt like they were punishing the ''Naruto'' fandom who wanted to receive the story in a legitimate way.
* Tropers/InvaderWeezle: Oh, WebVideo/ChrisStuckmann, it's a shame that I want to leave an entry for this guy. I've always considered him to be my favorite movie reviewer on Website/YouTube, being in that perfect middle ground where he's just a regular guy enjoying movies but then also trying to gain a greater understanding for the medium. But at some point it feels like he's changed to where he has acts more superior to others than he did before, and that's especially apparent in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GamrRXyIUs Analyzed review]] of ''Film/RogueOne''. First off, he had already done [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxWFm5kUBGk two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZHrFZuKYk8 reviews]] of ''Rogue One'', plus he co-starred in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pyzs1MPMXB4 Nostalgia Critic's review]] where, despite following a script meant for comedy, he still presents his same unironic opinions that he presented in his reviews. Since these three videos all came out in December 2016 right around when the movie came out and the Analyzed review came out three months later, it would be fine if he had significantly changed his opinions or had some new perspective on the film, but he doesn't. His opinions are exactly the same as the three other videos he shared them in, and his perspectives are the same as any other think piece criticizing ''Rogue One''. But this isn't about his opinions on the movie, this is about his attitude in his Analyzed video. This video served no purpose but to call out the fans on liking the movie. The way he presented his criticisms in his other reviews was in a reasonably respectable "I felt like these things were weak, I thought these things didn't work, etc." attitude. But in the Analyzed review, his tone is incredibly condescending and passive aggressive to fans of the film, in a more "Stop defending this thing, I'm going to tell you why you're wrong" attitude. He paraphrases common defenses for the film in an indisputably mocking tone, and he blatantly says that you would only really like ''Rogue One'' if you're simple-minded when it comes to ''Star Wars ''and you don't appreciate the "deep" aspects like he does. Which leads into the absolute worst part of this video: everything to do with his "Phantom Menacing" term, which he says is when people are in denial that a movie disappointed them. He's mentioned Phantom Menacing before, but I brushed it off at the time because I won't pretend it doesn't sometimes happen where your own hype can get you to enjoy something a lot more on the first experience than you will in subsequent times. In this video however, it really pissed me off because he's using this to belittle fans of things he doesn't like. He boldly asks "Are people Phantom Menacing ''Rogue One''?" It's like he can't accept that he's in the minority opinion on something, so he just assumes that everyone else is in denial and he's the correct one in all of this, and eventually everyone will come to their senses and agree with him. And combined with his aforementioned comment about how you would only like ''Rogue One'' if all ''Franchise/StarWars'' is to you is "Lol Excitement Action Visuals Fighting Explosions!", it's pretty clear that he doesn't think highly of the intelligence of ''Rogue One'' fans. For that matter, this whole Phantom Menacing thing is insulting to ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' fans. Chris acts like everyone came to their senses and decided Phantom Menace is bad, and there certainly were fans that changed their mind on the movie, but the movie still to this day has plenty of fans who unironically like and defend it. Are they just still in denial after 18 years? Attitudes like Chris's do nothing but try to discredit perspectives. Another Troper included Creator/DougWalker's Disneycember video on ''The Phantom Menace'' on this page for how Doug acts like fans are in denial and are too dumb to realize the movie is bad, and it's the same thing with Chris' video. Just an all-around insulting video that served no purpose but to tell people how dumb they are and how them praising something upsets him, and Chris should probably check his ego.
* Tropers/MagnusForce: I like ''WebVideo/TREYTheExplainer'' and think his videos are excellently researched. However, when watching his "Top 13 Most Inaccurate Fossil Reconstructions", his bonus example made me {{facepalm}}. He presents us with a reconstruction of a winged ankylosaur called ''Aeolosaurus'' and goes on a sort of mini-rant about how ridiculous it is. The problem is that he took the illustration completely out of context without double-checking it - something I immediately realized because the same image also had a dinosaur called ''[[Film/TheBeastFromTwentyThousandFathoms Rhedosaurus]]'' (which he completely glossed over). With a simple reverse image source, I traced the same pic to [[https://chasmosaurs.blogspot.com/2013/09/vintage-dinosaur-art-be-dinosaur.html a children's book]] that asked young readers to identify two fake dinosaurs in a group of real species, with ''Aeolosaurus'' and ''Rhedosaurus'' being the answers. In other words, that winged ankylosaur was never meant to be taken seriously! He was fooled by a children's quiz that had deliberately invoked ArtisticLicensePalaeontology to make a point! Even worse is that he has discussed kaiju before, so you think he would have been tipped off by the inclusion of ''Rhedosaurus'' (aka the monster that inspired Godzilla!) and realized the pic was purely facetious! For a guy like him, whose videos are all about meticulous research and promoting scientific accuracy, that's a mistake so stupid it's embarrassing.
* Tropers/AwesomeReesee: To be very clear, I hate the reception family wikis, however the atrocious youtubers wiki article titled Angry Mice Lovers Attack Mouse Channel really rubs me the wrong way. Mainly due to literal defense of [[CruellaToAnimals animal cruelty]]. The article [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer literally]] begins with a description of mice and saying that they’re atrocious because they crap on kitchen counters. They then said that they were defending mice for no reason. Again, seriously. Even though the person who uploaded the video was of him setting up a glue trap which he manages to catch 7 mice in the glue trap. He gives them a little ride, and then throws them in the trash. They then said [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman it was okay because they were vermin]]. They also accused the comments of being from [[AnimalWrongsGroup PETA]], yeah, as if [[SarcasmMode all animal rights supporters support PETA]] and not only that they are pretty much hypocrites because of criticizing Peluchin Entertainmen despite him doing the same thing to cats as one commentator said: Why? The animals are being tortured. Any well-rounded, sane human being is going to have a problem with that, regardless of what animal it is. He got a negative vote as a result
** Tropers/SuperSonicAndMario2: The article has thankfully been deleted. It was crap anyway.
** Tropers/MisterToodleoo: One time when I couldn’t remember the word “Miraheze” and was therefore Googling the new Closing Logos Wiki, I stumbled across the Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki, which is a wiki from the group mentioned above. At first, it was interesting to read about the toxicity, even though I noticed an attitude that I don’t like, which I will explain shortly. The Dethroning Moment was when I found that they have an entire page (which I don’t plan on reading) about not one, but two insults that they despise. The first one refers to a certain disease that happens to also be a Dutch curse word, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the people behind the wiki don’t know that. The second one, however, refers to my mental condition (take a guess what it is; it’s often associated with socially awkward geniuses). The reason I’m typing this is because I feel that if too much negative attention is drawn to “improper” use of the latter word, people will be afraid to make metaphors, positive or negative, about it. It would also cause people like me to have OCD thoughts that involve the words in question constantly popping into their heads. (By the way, I had a positive experience involving the word that describes me, but I won’t type it here.) So, in conclusion, I stumbled across a wiki, started reading it, found my BerserkButton and left the site! It’s as simple as that!
* Tropers/{{Nightfurywitch}}: I like WebVideo/RalphTheMoviemaker. I really do. His ''Series/MysteryDiners'' video, his ''Wish Upon'' video and tons others are great! But...I can’t watch his ''Film/FantasticFour2015'' review. Why? It feels like he just wants to hate on kids. It’s about 2-3 minutes straight of it, with no hint he’s joking.
* Tropers/MetalAiAi: [=PatMac=]'s video on [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic Bootlegs]] starts off perfectly fine, then at the 6 minute mark he suddenly makes a quip about how factories would still be producing a line of cheap figures after the death of the universe and erasure of mankind. Here's the problem: I was close to shaking off an existential crisis when I was watching, expecting an entertaining video, only for that cheap joke to make me lose all motivation and even made me consider becoming a LazyBum for the rest of my life because everything would be pointless in the end. Fortunately, I was able to snap myself out of this funk, [[FridgeHorror but what if someone who was suffering from depression wanted to watch the video to cheer themselves up? There's no indication that the video will have a joke like that.]] What I'm trying to say here is that the ultimate fate of life and the universe can be an extremely sensitive subject, because it is a common reason for suicide.
* Tropers/MightyMewtron: I really did enjoy Shady Doorags at least casually, since his channel is the main place to get fairly-consistent analysis on shows like ''WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman.'' However, I'm very uncomfortable after watching his take on ''WesternAnimation/TucaAndBertie,'' titled [[SympathyForTheDevil "Empathy for Your Enemies."]] Many commenters rightfully called Shady out on his take, which calls out the show for portraying Dirk and Pastry Pete as villains without considering their perspective. The video just reeks of both a major misunderstanding of both ''Tuca'' and ''[=BoJack=]'' as well as major uncomfortable implications regarding sexual harassment. Shady seems convinced that the show needs to explore the motivations of sexual harassers and explains that these characters may not have realized they were doing wrong, as if commenting about a coworker's breasts when you're not their friend or holding your employee's head over a boiling pot is an easy mistake anybody could make. He brings up ''[=BoJack=]'''s sympathetic portrayal of immoral characters as a standard for ''Tuca'' to reach, despite ''Tuca'' being [[LighterAndSofter more cartoony and cathartic of a show]] than ''[=BoJack=]'', not to mention that the latter show makes it very clear that the main character's behavior should not be dismissed just because of his FreudianExcuse, and the last ''[=BoJack=]'' season released before this video- which Shady had talked about!- practically revolved around that point. Additionally, Shady seemed to misrepresent some of these situations to prove his point. He says that Bertie's reactions weren't justified because some women might like the things these men were doing...despite the fact that Bertie did have a distressed sexual arousal to Pete's harassment, and it was only after seeing another girl harassed the same way did she realize her mistake. That was the clip with which he opened the video! And he completely glosses over Bertie's [[spoiler:RapeAsBackstory]] which informs a lot of her behavior in these situations, which ironically neglects Bertie's perspective in a video about seeing all perspectives. [[DoubleStandard He also never defends or even mentions Tallulah, a female antagonist,]] making the video less about "empathy for enemies" and more about "empathy for sexual harassers." Overall an extremely uncomfortable video full of UsefulNotes/VictimBlaming where he all but says that he can't relate to this show because he's a man, acting offended that, in the [[Series/MadMen sea of famous shows]] [[Series/BreakingBad with less-than-moral men]] [[Series/TheSopranos as protagonists,]] this show [[CatharsisFactor doesn't expect women to forgive their abusers.]] It's a perspective that taints his ''[=BoJack=]'' videos for me as well, sadly enough.
* Tropers/FalconPain: On the subject of ''Literature/SailorNothing'', there are a number of things I find it hard to stand in a work. Two of them are {{Author Tract}}s that go against my principles and characters behaving illogically in order to make the plot happen. So I had a real problem with the movie theater scene, a scene that is largely irrelevant to the plot in which a working adult refuses to sell his product to an interested consumer simply because she is unpopular at his child's school, leading to a speech in favor of illegal downloading.
* Tropers/Connor2107: During MerkDEnglish's playthrough of ''VideoGame/LifeIsStrange'', Mark makes no effort to hide his dislike for the game, in particular Chloe. He also makes several edgy remarks throughout his gameplay, none of which really bothered me... until near the end of the first episode, where Chloe reveals to Max that Nathan drugged her before the events of the game. Mark mistakenly believes that Chloe was raped by Nathan and says she got what she deserved for trying to scam him. I don't care who someone is or what they've done, saying they deserved to get raped for it is absolutely disgusting.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: In Ottomagic Critic’s commentary on Logomax’s commentary on [[Website/GoAnimate Brendan Barney]]’s harsh message to The Previews Guy, Ottomagic Critic brings up the fact that The Previews Guy has raged in allcaps when correcting people on movie release information. So, what’s the next negative thing he says about The Previews Guy? It’s that he “uploads fucking [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Barney]] VHS openings”. Hold it right there! The Previews Guy has that username because he uploads all kinds of VHS and DVD openings, not just Barney ones. So, since when is associating with anything to do with Barney considered a crime against maturity? Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if Ottomagic Critic [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch hasn’t even watched Barney]]! This is where I gave up on even skimming through this video.
* Tropers/{{Exxolon}}: While ''WebVideo/EpicRapBattlesOfHistory'' is pretty much critic proof there is one moment that while not outright sucking was definitely a disappointment. After Boba Fett's brief cameo in the Hitler vs Vader 3 battle his actual battle vs Deadpool while not bad didn't live up to the high energy style showcased there with a slower and more measured delivery in a lower pitched voice. I was looking forward to Fett rapid firing zingers and got fairly pedestrian verses instead.
** [=InTheGallbladder=]: I gave up around "Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump." Nothing to do with my personal views--the breaking point came with the "surprise" return of Abraham Lincoln Riding A Bald Eagle, a twist so obvious I'm not even bothering to spoiler it. There's just no way in hell for three white rappers to set up a rhyme with "riggers" [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt that didn't foreshadow a]] CurseCutShort from three [[PainfulRhyme (incredibly clumsy)]] lines ahead. And then Lincoln fumbles it from the very start, rhyming "blah blah blah" with... nothing, or at least not an actual word. I'd noticed a drop in writing quality in favor of spectacle from the onset of season 5, but nothing else illustrated it quite as well.
* Tropers/{{dsneybuf}}: Tony Goldmark's ''WebVideo/OneMovieLater'' "review" of ''Film/{{Cats}}'' went from "obnoxious" to "unwatchable" when the OverlyLongGag of Tony and his friends screaming in horror at the movie (a gag that begins before Tony even drives to the theater) stretched all the way into the "Spoilers" section. At this point, it became evident that the video would provide nothing substantial at all, just EarRape (a lot of which I fast-forwarded through, in feeble hopes of finding an actual review). It already had a lot going against it beforehand, between ''Cats'' having nothing to do with theme parks, Tony Tweeting his dread for the movie (which only has its own episode because it won a viewers' poll), and me doubting that his persona could fit a discussion of a Broadway musical. Unfortunately, the final result squanders the opportunity to branch out of his comfort zone. The general cheapness of his channel also renders unlikely the possibility that he rushed this out to make time for something grand.
* Tropers/{{Pgj1997}}: I'm in the minority here when I say that [=GameDude8899=]'s reviews aren't as bad as people thought they were, but I will agree that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hyLB1tIIII Mario Smash Kart]] is him at his lowest. The whole video is just one big disorganized mess. His arguments fly by way too fast, giving the viewer zero time to take them in. Now, all of [=GameDude=]'s videos feel like this in my opinion (him listing off bullet points, and never explaining himself any further), but this review in particular felt really aimless. One minute, he's talking about the little issues he has with the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' series, the next he's complaining about the ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' games completely out of nowhere (I guess he pulled a Website/ScrewAttack by thinking "you can play as Mario, so they're Mario games"), and then he complains about ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' for some reason. All throughout, there are these extremely anecdotal arguments that I can only assume were just thrown in as jokes (not that they're even funny to begin with), most of which drag on for way too long and throw off the pacing. I do agree with some of his arguments (like how poor ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'''s online was, or the lack thereof in ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii''), but can someone tell me what the point of this video even was?
* [=InTheGallbladder=]: WebVideo/RealTimeFandub's take on the ''VideoGame/SonicRiders'' series. In particular: The climax of ''Zero Gravity'' doesn't resolve in a cutscene. How could they have addressed this? Have the cast speak over gameplay footage, as in the legendary ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' dub. How did they address this? Five long, self-indulgent minutes of Penny and Marble mutely dicking around in VideoGame/GarrysMod, for them and the rest of the cast to kill time talking over. It's worse in that it isn't a BigLippedAlligatorMoment; they try to make it a plot point in what few minutes are left. Ryan, the only actor whose lines were consistently good throughout, put it best:
-->I don't use the word "fucking stupid" loosely...
* [=PickePacMan=] (LetsPlay/SuperLPHeroes): I've been watching the races for a lot of months and enjoyed a lot of them despite people like [=GoldGleeGamer1=] being an unfunny CaptainObvious and never making an effort to improve channel problems and Sinisterkun's obnoxious background noise drowning people out and ruining the commentary. It's because a lot of the other members being actually entertaining are why I watch the races, but the "Wizards & Warriors" race is what killed the whole group thanks to [=GoldGleeGamer1=] basically saying "I'm not going to bother fixing what's broken" and everyone getting into topics that are both sensitive or viewers watch to get away from. When Sinisterkun said "Too bad!" after Lady Lexis said "Let's stay out of politics" was the third strike in a single race killing the entire channel.
* Saberwulf2018: WebVideo/TheCriticalDrinker's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LKaBY222KQ review]] of ''Film/RamboLastBlood'' failed in so many ways possible, with most of it relying heavily on Critical Research Failure (no pun intended). First off, while ''Last Blood'' was meant to be the GrandFinale of the ''Rambo'' saga as a whole, he's not the kind of character to get an epic poignant heroic sendoff. He even goes as far as to claim that he isn't Rambo at all, despite being played by Creator/SylvesterStallone, due to him being more talkative, clean-cut, and easy-going, even going as far as to call him an imposter. He had just came home for once, and stayed there peacefully for years. In the [[Film/FirstBlood first film]], he got back from Vietnam and hadn't settled back yet. In [[Film/RamboFirstBloodPartII the second]], he just got out of prison. [[Film/RamboIII The third]], he was living peacefully in Thailand and was raising money to help monks build a monastery. In [[Film/RamboIV the fourth]], Rambo was depressed and nihilistic and wanted to stay isolated from society. Now come the fifth film, Rambo had found a home, stayed settled for years, and also raised a family. He was also on pills to cope with his PTSD. And Rambo built a tunnel under his home because he was a Vietnam vet, and it was heavily inspired by the Vietcong utilizing the underground tunnel network during the war. Then he goes as far as to criticize not saying which college Gabriela was going to. I thought starting off on general education was what was needed before deciding what field you were to major in. Gabriela's father was just meant to be irredeemable and selfish, and besides, most baddies in ''Rambo'' were always one-dimensional. And the reason why Rambo didn't do any recon in an urban environment is probably because of him being on his pills for his illness. Also, the HumanTraffickers [[BondVillainStupidity keeping Rambo alive]] [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown after beating him to near death]] was out of pure arrogance, as well as Rambo being so easy to gang up on and not seemingly pose a threat. They also wanted to make an example out of him and Gabriela so that they could scare away anyone who confronted them. When Rambo went back to rescue Gabriela from the traffickers, [[DropTheHammer he used a hammer on them]], not an axe. And when Rambo stopped taking the pills, that was when he decided to go back to killing. Again, the pills kept his PTSD at bay. The reason why he built his tunnel to be wired with explosives was because he wanted to make Hugo and his men feel desperation, fear, and helplessness, like what Gabriela did. And the villains did figure out that Rambo was responsible for one of their brothels getting hit, but Hugo had told Victor to let it go and ignore him, to just go back to business. And the worst thing is him criticizing TheStinger, where Rambo rides into the sunset rather than have him die from his wounds. Rambo is not the kind of character to be killed off so easily, it's almost as if he wanted Rambo to die in the end. While he may not have hated the film out of political differences like what most critics have been, I still feel like he was just being spiteful towards it.
* eirigfi: I love Stories of Sodor and most of the episodes. Most of them. Shunted ins't necessarily bad just... weaker. It retells the race between Thomas and Bertie but with real life consequences. The issue comes after the race. To be fair to Edward, he does make some good points that it was stupid and reckless but I think he's making a big deal out of this. Yes racing down the branchline is risky but no one was hurt and this is Thomas' first offense that he knew of. From there, things don't get bad again until the very end where Edward mentions that Thomas and Eric weren't very happy with him when they return it's just swept under the rug. Gee Edward, why would they be so upset at you for overacting? Oh and one more thing, wasn't your temper part of the reason for the closure of your old home Edward? You should have learned from that. But yeah, a pretty weak episode to a great series.
* Tropemaster849: While I prefer the normal ones, I do have a soft spot for Death Battle Exhibition as they are extremely fast paced and I tend to prefer the fights to the research sections. As such, I was really excited for the opener of Season Five, which was ''Thor vs. Vegeta''. But when the video was over, all I could wonder was if the team was trying to screw up as much as possible. First off, the actual fight is only around thirty seconds, with more time on the Ringmaster. Second, the fight has some of the worst 3D animation ever seen. Everything felt way too slow for a fight between two god powered beings. Finally, the death of the loser(who I won't say for spoiler reasons) was so tame I couldn't even tell how they died. While the following battle, ''Mulan vs. Lucina'', did redeem the season, it shouldn't have needed too.
* ScarletNebula: I don't mind Rock Critic/Crash Thompson but The Worst Rock Hits of 1990 has one really bad part that sinks the video for me. So for an hour he builds up the number 1 choice for the list, only for it to be... Cherry Pie. Okay that's fine, the band doesn't even like that song themselves so that isn't the issue. It's the fact that it was a build up to a really awful period joke. Which, besides being gross anyway, just wasn't funny.
** Alex D. Large: I find Crash Thompson to be one of the worst Doug Walker clones out there. He fits the quota so well: over-the-top screaming in an ear-grating high-pitched voice, shit-talking the things he hates, is a horrendous impersonator, and being critical towards those people like he thinks they're going to listen to him. And some of his reviews run for far, far too long. When he rebranded his channel, he said that he would stop the long videos, [[LyingCreator but wouldn't you know it, he's still doing long-ass videos]]. Anyway, one of those examples comes from his review of Bad Religion's "Into the Unknown". Not even thirty seconds in the review, he note that the band's name should not be confused with Godsmack's song of the same name. As he plays a live performance of the song, he starts outright screaming that the song consists of only one note, and screams further at the crowd cheering. That made me shut the video off outright. What makes matters worse is that when actually covers the song for his "I Hate This Song" series, he plays that same clip, only he speaks over his screaming lines in a monotone voice. [[SarcasmMode Like that's going to make that any better]].
** darksteel: I generally like Crash's videos, especially his long ones (I liked that "Into the Unknown" video, aside from the pointless Godsmack jab). But ever since he dropped the Rock Critic moniker, his output has gotten less and less consistent. By far his worst moment, though, was his "Worst Albums of 2020" video, where he put "F8" by Music/FiveFingerDeathPunch at #1 solely because he hated the band's music video for "Living the Dream". He assumed that it was promoting anti-masking, which in reality isn't true, as nobody in the band (Zoltan Bathory included) said they were against COVID mandates or masks or anti-vaxxers. Even if that is true, it still reeks of hypocrisy on Crash's part, considering he has shown to have no problem whatsoever giving glowing praise to Music/SystemOfADown and {{Music/Deftones}} and not putting them in "the bin" despite the two bands both having members that have been FAR much explicit in being anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers then FFDP. So him putting "F8" at #1 just feels a convenient excuse for him to bash the band (and their fans) yet again, which feels oh-so-tiresome and predictable. His reviews of their albums have always been pretty bad, feeling like he's stereotyping them and their fans needlessly and this essentially just confirmed that.
* [=treehugger0369=]: I love [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVTKO1D_G19UlK03ezaADag Snarled]]. I love creepypastas, but my ADHD won't tolerate reading full-length ones, so Snarled's "Something Scary" videos provide a good "bite-size" dose of horror that doesn't overwhelm my attention span. That said, after three years and change of that series (from their first Something Scary video to the uploading of the video I'm ranting about), they dropped one hell of a dud: "[[https://youtu.be/fn6ndXDrJLc Whispers That Bite]]". The cliffnotes version is: a girl is constantly shunned and bullied by her classmates after moving to a new school, and is just told by her school councellor to not let it get to her (Red Flag #1). Upon arriving home one day, she goes on social media and the taunts continue their via her heckler's FB posts, and she begins to believe that what they're saying about her is true, culmiating in her suddenly being covered in unsightly welts that resemble insect bites ([[SarcasmMode which does wonders for her self-esteem in the face of everyone calling her a freak and a monster]]). They go away the following day after she stands up to her bullies mocking her for the welts, but the whole thing just rubbed me the wrong way: It's basically treated like the welts are the victim's fault for letting those words get to her, instead of the bullies for saying those words in the first place. I'm gonna copy and paste my comment on that video here, and hopefully this explains why this is one of the few videos I intentionally clicked the "dislike" button on. (Trigger Warning for the spoilered paragraph: [[spoiler: Suicidal Ideation]])

[[spoiler: As someone who contemplated suicide due to bullying back in high school, this story really hit home for me. And every time I tried to tell my teacher, I was always told "Woman up and deal with it." (I was the only girl in a class of engineering students, hence the bullying; this was a class at a vocational school.) They only took action when, after venting to the councellor about this and other things (mainly finals stress on top of the news that I'd be moving to Florida--I lived in Maryland--immediately after I graduated that year), I was handed a harassment report to fill out and I let slip on the "extra comments" section that I was having those kinds of thoughts as a consequence. I'm not convinced anything would have ever been done if they didn't learn that they were close to having a dead body on their hands. And I only had like five classmates out of a class of like 18 (go figure how many other students were in the school) doing this; I probably wouldn't have lived long enough to fill out the report if every single student was ganging up on me.]]\\

Chris here was pretty much being told the same thing I was; suck it up and try not to let it affect you. But it's not that simple, especially in the time of your life where you're experiencing the most changes and you're trying to figure yourself out. That's the time of your life where outside comments have the most influence, and when you're hearing them every single day, from so many other people, and can't even escape them when you leave (as evidenced by her seeing them on her FB feed), and are hearing or seeing no contradicting evidence that they're right, it's impossible to not start to believe them. It doesn't matter how much of a loner you think you are; humans are naturally social creatures, and being shunned by literally everyone else can be devastating to a person's psyche, no matter how "above it all" they want to be.\\

It shouldn't be on the victim to not let themselves get hurt by other people's words and actions, and the school failed her when the councillor implied that that was what needed to be done instead of taking steps to have the bullies actually disciplined. And don't @ me with "They can't punish every student"; if every student is picking on this one kid, that's an even bigger failure on the school's part because that kind of environment doesn't come out of nowhere.
* Tropers/{{AustinDR}}: While I mostly watch ''WebVideo/BlackCriticGuy'' for his anime reviews, his reviews on films tend to be more of an iffier subject his more contentious reviews being films like ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda3'' and ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2''. But the one review that really irked me was his take on the infamous Netflix film ''Film/{{Cuties}}''. I found myself slightly agreeing with his points such as the film attempting to have a message about over sexualization being wrong (even if I think the film botched it by showing that there were little to no consequences for the girls acting out; rather the film looked like it was ''rewarding'' their behavior). But where I felt Tony missed the mark is exactly ''why'' people were outraged with the film: that would be the casting. Over 600 hundred girls auditioned for the main role and, if it isn't abundantly clear by now, children cannot consent to that kind of stuff. While you could say they accepted the role, there is little way that they would mentally be able to understand the full implications behind what they are being tasked to do. As such, the film shoots its own message in the foot by setting out doing what it preaches against.
* Tropers/{{KrazyTVWatcher}}: While I will admit that DaveTheUsher and his playthrough of the Sega Genesis video game Barney's Hide and Seek was hilarious at times, I did not like the end of the final part. Leading up to the final level, the Farm, Dave's freakouts were in between for me. When he got to the farm, him telling the "noise" in the music to shut up then later mimicking the music had me laughing each time he did it. However, my DMOS is during the credits, Dave outright said that [[MeaninglessMeaningfulWords the developers had no shame in wanting the music and sounds]]. What really turned me away from the video is when DTU yelled out [[PrecisionFStrike "FUCK YOU!"]] to Eric Swanson, in addition to him saying that he [[ArsonMurderandJaywalking should rot in Hell just because he composed music and sounds for the game]]. Again, while I admit that his playthrough of the game was funny at times, this was not one of his better moments.
* Tropers/{{AustinDR}}: I am subscribed to both Top 5 Videos and their horror-themed spinoff. In their list of "Top 5 Horror Movie Villains We All Root For", they list [[Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal Lecter]] as being their number one pick on the grounds that Lecter didn't really kill anyone and attacked the police officers because they were being rude." This, however, completely ignores the fact that he gruesomely murders the guards, including going as far as to wear one of their faces as a mask, when he was rightfully being detained.
* Tropers/Kirby0189: There was a "Top 10 Worst VideoGame/MegaManX Weapons" video I found a little problematic with some strange logic (such the entry on the [[VideoGame/MegaManX5 Dark Hold]] focusing on it being too similar to the [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Time Stopper]] when he doesn't like weapons being reused from past games when it being just as bad as the Time Stopper because it only works on one boss and cannot be turned off until it quickly runs out of energy could have made a substaintial point all on its own), but it still made a lot of good points. The #1 spot was a giant cheat however, as it lists every VideoGame/MegaManX7 weapon. X7 is my GuiltyPleasure, but even I admit that most of its weapons are awful, and the video expressed similar thoughts to mine in how they consume too much weapon energy and X's targeting makes them useless compared to the regular X-Buster most of the time, but sticking all eight weapons into the same spot is a bad move because it implies that they are all equally bad. Really, the Moving Wheel or Explosion should have been in the #1 spot with entries all to their own unacompanied by the other six. Also, despite him trying to insist that it's not a cheat, the start of the video had him say that he had to scrape the bottom of the barrel for the early entries because there weren't enough truly-awful weapons to fill out ten spots. Then maybe you should have spread out some of the X7 weapons across the list to help pad it out with actually bad weapons? The entry on the Splash Laser was the worst. Anyone who was played X7 knows that this weapon's charged form tears through enemies and bosses, and the wiki says that it is the most powerful weapon X can obtain from a Maverick. This goes completely unaddressed, not even as a "yea it can do this, but on the other hand it sucks because...", with the entry showing it alongside footage of the [[VideoGame/MegaManX2 Bubble Splash]] and trying to make the point that it's too similar, even though the footage clearly shows the Bubble Splash firing a few small bubbles that float upward while the Splash Laser fires a stream of water that goes downward, and then the Splash Laser's charged form firing large bubbles straight forward in rapid sucession (and the Bubble Splash's charged form, which is really different from anything the Splash Laser offers, is conveniently left out). If the logic is that all bubble weapons are the same, then he should hate the Bubble Splash too for using bubbles like the [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Bubble Lead]]. If you're going to bash something from X7 (which I have no problem with because I know it's bad even if I enjoy it), at least make substantial points that don't make it look like you're grasping at straws.
* Tropers/AspieFangirl1984: I really hate the Virgin vs Chad meme. I used to find it funny, but it seems like it devolved into "Thing I like vs thing I don't like." and it just... annoys me. Many of the reasons for the "Virgin" side being inferior also tend to be quite weak (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Franchise/StarWars Rey is inferior to Ahsoka]] is that... she's human?[[note]] Although I would like to see a non-human protagonist [[/note]]) or stupid (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Film/CaptainMarvel Carol Danvers]] is inferior to [[Film/AlitaBattleAngel Alita]] is because... her gender was changed for no reason?[[note]] Carol Danvers was always a woman, although the mantle of Captain Marvel (which she's held for nearly ten years now) was originally held by a man, who was given a rather divisive [[spoiler:GenderFlip]] in the film in question[[/note]]) And then there's [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/438/423/415.png this one]]. Now, I love both WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower and WesternAnimation/{{Hilda}}, but this... is really stupid. I don't remember being [[CharacterShilling told why I should like]] Adora. Also, both shows are excellent, and I highly doubt that Creator/NDStevenson "cherry picks" critics, considering that's not how Website/RottenTomatoes works. Also, what I ''really'' hate is how this meme isn't comparing two shows or characters, it's comparing two RealLife people, (who I would honestly love to see collaborate on a graphic novel, but that's beside the point).
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: At one point in the ''Animated Anarchy'' video on ''WesternAnimation/FelixTheCatTheMovie'', a clip from the movie is shortened to make it sound like the man who would later become the Duke of Zill was banished from the Kingdom of Oriana just because he was disfigured in an accident and had to rebuild his body. The critic in the video then proceeds to call the people who banished him horrible people and says “No wonder he doesn't like you!” However, if the movie clip hadn't been edited, you would have heard that the future Duke wanted a powerful book that the people in charge of the Kingdom wouldn't let him have. I don't know if this is a deliberate case of ManipulativeEditing or if the critic somehow didn't know that the dialogue he cut out actually matters, but there you go.
* Tropers/SoaringEagle: I don't know who [=TheClooch=] is, but after watching his video "VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}: How to Kill a Video Game", I don't think I want to know more. Regardless of your opinion on the current state of Blizzard's latest, the bad balancing, and whether or not it deserves a sequel, to call the game "dead" is like calling Franchise/StarWars "dead"; neither is true, no matter how much the fandom complains about either. As far as I'm concerned, a game is only dead when there are less than 1,000 players, or the servers shut down. Oh! But the big reason why the video makes it on this page, in my opinion, is one line towards the end of the video, regarding when Overwatch "died": "It was dead on arrival." You heard it here, friends: a game that has almost 50 million players worldwide, made over $500 million in its first year alone, and won numerous awards since launch, was "dead on arrival". I've seen numerous users around the Internet trying to convince people that Overwatch is the worst game ever made, but this video has to be the worst case.
* Tropers/BigJimbo: Coming across a ''WebComic/GarfieldMinusGarfield'' reaction video by a [=YouTuber=] called "The Click", I found it funny initially... but then he reads one where Jon seems to vomit after breathing the air outside his house or something, and his reaction is "Corona." Say what you will about COVID-19 jokes, but I find the ones that either come across as "Get it? It's funny because COVID exists" or shoehorn in a mention extremely infuriating, and taking that out of the equation, how about people who are given anxiety by the very mention of the virus? This moment alienated me so much, I'd rather not watch another of these videos.
* Scsigs: Oof, am I probably gonna get heat for this entry if his stans find out about this entry here. Anyways, since this is the section for one-offs & actual people that make content online, my choice is Edwins Generation/Edwin Costa. This dude is a fucking trainwreck of a human being, from the fact that he lucked into being a commentary channel when he used his old roommate Cyr and Cyr's ex Dasha to exploit terrible things they've done (both deserving of backlash and not) to gain clout and bring hate to them, he defended a proven sexual predator by resurrecting a 5-year-old drama that'd been long since buried, and he's proven himself very [[CantTakeCriticism incapable of taking any form of legit criticism]], egotistical, HolierThanThou, IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance, and extremely hypocritical ever since he started covering Onision, which is what I'm going to talk about. In 2019, he started reacting to Onision's videos when he became a hot-button topic to talk about. Then, he befriended most of his victims and made it seem like he was actually affected by Creator/{{Shiloh}} like one of his now-friends was to put him on the same level as him by dragging Shiloh down like he did Cyr and Dasha. I'm in no way defending what Shiloh did at that time, but he clearly used it for clout gain when he could. Fast forward to early 2021 and he's suddenly on the Discovery+ Onision documentary ''Onision: In Real Life''. This is where it gets hysterical. So, he didn't tell ''anyone'' he was gonna be in it, not the victims (whom he's supposedly friends with), or his other commentary friends. In fact, he openly criticized it being made before and after he filmed his parts for it online. However, when screenshots leaked early of the first episode and showed he was in it, he immediately got questioned by everyone who said it was a ''very'' hypocritical move. He quickly claimed he "vetted the producers thoroughly" beforehand and told his commentary friends that he agreed to do it because he had the producers promise him he could "get a shot in at Chris Hansen." The documentary aired and his "shot" was a milktoast take about how Chris Hansen exploited the victims when he interviewed them for financial gain (which, Hansen's an investigative journalist and he's been doing that job for years because he got paid through it. How else is he going to make money?). Not only that, but he appeared in all of 6-7 minutes of the doc's first 3 episodes and the majority of his screentime was made up of explaining how Onision might've became popular so quickly over a decade ago on [=YouTube=], how [=YouTube's=] monetization program works, and the "shot", which Hansen then used as a way to do a TakeThat back at the commentary people who criticize him, as Edwin and his friends do, justifiably or not. The best part is that a stan of someone Edwin's repeatedly criticized in the past in some of his videos hacked into his Twitter account and screen recorded his [=DMs=] with a bunch of people. One set of which with Steven Asarch, one of the main producers and presenters of the docu series, when leaked revealed that he didn't vet him ''nearly'' as thoroughly as he said he did, nor did he actually get a promise to "Take a shot" at Hansen. He was genuinely lying and, when called out on it, couldn't take the backlash and deactivated his Twitter and took a break from the internet to try to let the backlash die down. So, tl;dr, I believe the Onision docu series is his dethroning moment, as he's shown to be a hypocrite because he neither likes Chris Hansen, nor did he avow the doc being made beforehand, a sellout because he clearly did it for clout, as he admitted he didn't get paid money to be in it and he was clearly expecting to be paid in exposure instead, and the fact that there's proof that he's willing to say what he thinks he needs to to make himself look like a victim in every place he can, as he claimed the producers purposely manipulated his footage to omit things, or cast things in different lights in the finished product and ''he'' was manipulated into being in the doc and said the things he said, he's clearly not the person he wants everyone to think he is and the backlash he's getting is well deserved.
* ''Tropers/{{Thepenguinking2}}'': Now, lemme preface this first: I am not a fan of Creator/ElectronicArts in the slightest. While I stood up for them in the past, I realize that they've done a lot of scummy stuff, more than even the average Triple A company (The ratings trickery in the mobile ''VideoGame/DungeonKeeper'' game, gutting multiple studios they've bought out, barely even giving ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesBattleForNeighborville'' a chance before cutting support, etc.). So, as to expect, [[https://youtu.be/CPBlnyM9IMc this video by Thomas Game Docs]] about EA stealing someone's game concept caught my interest. On top of all the horrible things they've done already, EA also committed plagarism? This sounds morbidly fascinating! But then it turned out the video was talking about ''Zuma''. A game developed by Creator/PopcapGames. While yes, Popcap is currently owned by EA (And after how horribly handled ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesHeroes'' and ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies 3'' were, I can't deny that they're basically using them as a flesh puppet at this point), Zuma was made years before EA took them over. This includes the sequel, and the DS port, which was released four months before Popcap was finally owned by EA. While the video does mention that Popcap was bought out by EA, it misinformedly states that the sequel was made during this time, which is just plain untrue, as I mentioned before. I don't entirely know if ''Zuma Blitz'' was made before or after the EA acquisition, but the video doesn't even mention it at any point, so that question doesn't matter. But hey! As long as you're mocking [[AcceptableTargets Electronic Arts]], rational thinking is just optional! This is my first time watching one of his videos, but after this miserably uninformed display, it's likely my last.
* ''Tropers/Siegfried1337'': While I still respect [=KonekoKitten=] for his commentary videos on ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'', one moment that almost pushed me to my RageBreakingPoint was that when he posted a video about "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j6Buy2ngB0 the truth about roblox bans...]]". In the video, Koneko talks about how some Roblox bans were absolutely justified since they were actually doing shady stuff and used Inspect Element to cover up the truth about some of their bans. That part gave me an absolute headache since I have seen most bans on Roblox be legitimate (and in case what you are wondering, yes, I have done my research on their accounts), so it really stood out that Koneko would say such a thing. Given how unpopular Roblox moderation is, and the fact that getting mistakenly banned is tragically common, and this basically nearly made him a massive BrokenPedestal to me, since this is a complete 180 from his well thought-out his videos were, seeing him do that made me less likely to continue supporting him if he continously holds this view. Trust me, when people do hot takes, at least most of them know how to get proof on how to make a good hot take, but this is not one of them.
* Levitator: WebVideo/CinemaWins used to be one of my favorite Youtube channels. It was a fresh breath of positivity in the noxious haze of [[CausticCritic Caustic Critics.]] I always felt like it was a channel for everyone to unite and defend the things the cruel internet hated. But then came his awful, awful video for {{Film/Elysium}}. I'll admit I didn't really like this movie that much, partly because I considered it to have an EsotericHappyEnding, but I'd seen the channel effectively defend movies I didn't like that much before and I enjoyed the alternate perspective, so I was looking forward to seeing it. But then the video consisted of constant bashing of capitalism, unfunny "eat the rich" jokes, and relentless EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory claims. Lee pretty much said that he considered the USA in 2021 to be a cyberpunk dystopia already. His closer segment, often the best part of his video, contained ignorant opinions about subjects such as food waste (restaurants and stores throw out food because of government regulation and the possibility of being sued!) that demonstrated Lee shouldn't be expressing opinions on such complex issues. He also suggested that his radical views shouldn't be considered a political issue, which only makes me wonder if he's even met a conservative. I'm not going to stop watching his videos because of this, but this is the first WebVideo/CinemaWins video to put me in a worse mood than when I started, and if that isn't a DMOS, I don't know what is.
* JHD0919: [[WebVideo/{{Animerica}} Animerica's]] "Top 25 Anime No One Should Ever Watch" was a hot mess. The "I'm right and you're wrong" attitude was prevalent throughout the video, but nowhere more so than his [[Anime/CodeGeass Code Geass R2]] segment. Will Ryan brings up how the season was upvoted higher than [[Anime/CowboyBebop Cowboy Bebop]] and [[Anime/SpiritedAway Spirited Away]] on Anime News Network, and then has the gall to ask the voters if they've lost their minds. Will. Buddy. It's okay if you hate R2, you're entitled to your opinion, but stop acting like it's an objectively bad show. What you did here is pass off your opinion on the show as if it was objective fact, and that anybody who disagrees with that "fact" (massive quotes there) is objectively wrong. This act was far from the only problem with the list, but it was the one that annoyed me the most.
* Asue: WebVideo/TotallyNotMark deserves a mention. His reviews, while not spectacular, are okay at best and inoffensive at worst. But there's something that needs to be adressed and that is his apparent obsession with ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'''s Episode 5 and its poor animation when it was first broadcast. If it was just mentionned in passing or even just a point of criticism when reviewing the show (and he did), it wouldn't be much of a problem. The issue is, he keeps bringing it up. A lot. And when someone criticized him for it, instead of considering it maybe a dead horse joke at this point, he smugly admitted that [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer he has the original broadcast of the episode saved and he loves to watch it]], completely dismissing the criticism at all. If he [[CantTakeCriticism can't take criticism]] for a friggin' overused joke, well, why would I listen to him? On a minor note, his "Every Difference In Dragon Ball Z Abridged" video feels like a waste of time, as it tells the [[CaptainObvious obvious (as if anyone would mistake any element of the parody for something from the orginal series)]].
* Tropers/Ordeaux26: I never thought that [[WebVideo/MLPAnalysis MisAnthro Pony]] was that amazing of a channel, but his review on ''Film/{{Cuties}}'' was what made me lose all respect for him. While I agree that the film is worthy of criticism and is quite a massive problem in many ways, but he took that criticism way too far. Specifically, the part where he shows comments from a bunch of people on Twitter and encourages his viewers to harass them and report them to get them banned, even going so far as to include links to various commenters and people who supported the film in the video description. He also wanted to shut down Netflix as a whole simply to the film and, in general, attacked anyone who liked the film, even if they weren't being bad.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: A Microsoft Sam-utilizing [=YouTuber=] named Sam da Vlogger used to call out immaturity in the [=GoAnimate=] community. However, I later found out that his online girlfriend caused him to act mean-spirited from mid-2019 to mid-2020, when he closed his [=YouTube=] account. This obviously explains the video that caused me to give up on his channel for the third time (that's right, I had two DMOS's before this one, but they were from before the aforementioned mean-spiritedness). In said video, he made mean comments to a [=YouTube=] user, who I think was named Some Person, who left a comment pretending to use [=GoAnimate=] logic to teleport to Dragonland. Sam was basically assuming that Some Person was an immature brat who doesn't "deserve to watch" ''WesternAnimation/DragonTales'' just because the person unironically referenced [=GoAnimate=] and had a ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' profile picture. To top it all off, he showed a screenshot of mean comments directed at Some Person, but in a way that endorsed them instead of calling them out like he probably would have from 2016 to mid-2019.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I think the group called Accuracy in Media has done good work, but I unsubscribed from their emails after one of their articles assumed the worst about ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed''. The logic of the article is as follows: because a film critic got in trouble for describing the movie as "horny", and because of the existence of sex scandals in Hollywood along with media that the article claims sexualizes children (one example the article gave was ''Film/{{Cuties}}'', which didn’t even originate from Hollywood, and no, the American marketing of the film was not referred to at all), then the aforementioned critic must have "said the quiet part out loud" and ''Turning Red'' must be bad for kids! Judging by this and their article on ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyANewGeneration'' ([[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch both of these articles got all their information on the movies in question from news sources that AIM might usually critique]]), I think Accuracy in Media should watch children's media first before deciding if it’s bad for kids.
* Tropers/RWBYraikou888: I used to really like WebVideo/MangaKamen's content, especially during his days in WebOriginal/TheCommentaryCommunity when he primarily used Skull Kamen. I was always invested in his ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' and ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' content, always got a kick out of him knocking the ivory off the towers of people like Verlisify, and while I am admittedly a fan of ''WebVideo/GameTheory'', I still enjoyed his content that ragged on it as sort of a balancing act. However, two events eventually made me realize he had become increasingly arrogant and antagonistic, and led me to [[BrokenPedestal outright unsubscribe from him]]. Firstly, his disdain towards ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}''. As soon as he first uploaded "What's Wrong with RWBY?!", I knew that his channel was [[ThisIsGonnaSuck about to take a dark turn]]. Now, him not being a fan of ''RWBY'' isn't a problem in its own right, as the show has a few blemishes that could be amended, but the way that the video was presented reigned eerily similar to the likes of Creator/LilyOrchard, who, last I checked, he had no respect for following her transition to more rant-based content. If it had been as simple as "Why RWBY Doesn't Do Enough For Me", I feel like it could have been more digestible, but the fact that he ended up hopping on the bandwagon of turning ''RWBY'' into the internet's second-biggest punching bag after ''Sonic'' made me realize how far gone he had been compared to his previous videos, where he delivered takedowns to people who deserved it. What made things even worse was a Reddit thread I found where he discussed with a ''RWBY'' fan that he keeps talking down on the show because he think there are an uneven amount of defenders and detractors weighing too hard on the side of defenders, but if the amount of influence spread by the likes of Vexed Viewer and Hero Hei are any indication, I think he's got it backwards. The fact that he hasn't stopped the ''RWBY'' backlash to this day only reinforces how I feel he's too arrogant to see reason. Second, and the thing that actually made me unsubscribe from him, is his unfriendly rivalry with [=TheMetalBlade5=]. Now, don't get me wrong, I feel as though Metal was just as in the wrong as him, and I also unsubscribed from his channel following his attempt at ranting on the ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind Golden Wind]]'' dub and subsequent calling out of [=RiverDude=] Covers, but everything that Kamen tried to deny about his distorting of Metal's attempt at reasonable discussion and adding fuel to the fire made me come to realize that Kamen holds a perpetual NeverMyFault attitude, and after removing his jokes of Skull Kamen being a perpetual ButtMonkey for his attempts at naysaying, it made me find out just how egotistical he could get. The fact that I used to be a fan of both Kamen and Metal made me feel bummed out that the two could never see reason, as it meant that Metal would have his image at the time sullied further, while Kamen descended more and more into self-importance and couldn't be reached out to. In the end, I felt as though [=MangaKamen=] was a breath of fresh air in the vitriolic world of [=YouTube=] commentaries, but ultimately [[HeWhoFightsMonsters became the thing he was initially subverting]].
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I stumbled across [=FoxAkimbo=]'s video "[=YouTube=]'s DISGUSTING Terminated Channels...", and I found that when he briefly talks about [=OfficerPoop247=], he acts as if any content involving Caillou deserves to be taken down, while neglecting, or perhaps not knowing, to explain how [=GoAnimate=] Caillou videos are different or even the real reason why that account got terminated. To that I say, "Well, that was unprofessional!"
* Tropers/Amber72004: I was on the Mondo Media website when I spotted The 80s movies Made Today video from Like, Share, Die. Most of the segments of the video are fine, Like the ET part, But it got to the A Christmas Story segment, Where Ralph gets shot by the police, Really? He didn't do anything but got a rifle for Christmas A police wouldn't even a shoot a kid if they have a gun, In the original movie, He shot his glasses out by accident, In here, He gets shot by the police, Any police wouldn't even shoot a kid unless if it was the parent, And also, the movie is set in the 1950s, not the 1980s, so it was a bit of critical research failure that the series had. If crosses the line twice, then I don't know what is.
* Tropers/Amber72004: [[https://youtu.be/yfnuu4TtlZI this video about the documentary of South Park]] by Italian Youtuber Apocaloso, The most of the video is fine, but when he said that animation is genre, which something that [[FandomEnragingMisconception makes animation fans angry]]. Animation is a medium, not a genre, The medium itself predates film and it's one of the most intensely popular mediums as comics and literature, The YouTuber himself needs to some more research when he makes his videos next time.
* Tropers/Amber72004 [[https://hecknopoohsadventures.tumblr.com/post/80103838421/ok-can-we-please-talk-about-this-jerk-the This post from an anti-Pooh's Adventures Tumblr blog]] is just badly-written about a user on Deviantart, The users puts hyphens on words such as ''sick f**k'' and ''High time'' and misspelled the word ''Quality'' and he uses all-caps on his post as well, This just come as very unprofessional at best and poorly-written at worst.
* Tropers/MelancholyUtopia: I'm indifferent towards ''WebVideo/TheWarpZone'' for the most part: they have some semi-funny sketches (as most of them, in my opinion, have jokes that are too generic, unoriginal or just extremely dated as fans already made the same jokes ages ago) in their "If X had Y" type videos, and I like the accurate voice acting of the game characters. That said, one time made me sigh in disappointment, and that was in their "IF POKÉMON HAD FACEBOOK" video. In one of the sketches, in response to Giovanni arguing intelligent design over evolution, Misty replies with "Nobody intelligently designed ''these'' guys". and showed pictures of Garbodor, Rotom and Klefki. Then Klefki writes a post and says "I'm Keys!!" Haa-haa. Two of those made me cringe as they are just reiterating the same boring, old observation that "these pokémon are just objects and it's ridiculous!!!" Never mind the fact that Garbodor is supposed to be an embodiment representative of the pollution/trash problem in New York City, a place the Unova region is based on. An even worse offender in this case is Klefki, however, as if you bothered to do even a modicum of research is based on the pagan belief that fairies are to blame for small objects, such as keys, going missing, hence why it's a fairy-type, and which I personally considered kind of a crafty way to reinforce the unique "steel/fairy" type combo. Also, in Japan, there's an old mythos that carrying a specific iron charm will ward off those types mischievous creatures, again alluding fairy and steel together. Furthermore its name is a take on the French word clef, which means key. Yet the guys who wrote these sketches have the gall to say they weren't "intelligently designed". Look, it's perfectly okay if you don't like their designs, but it's plain dishonest and objectively wrong to say no thought was put behind their aesthetic. Another thing, has there ever been some kind of invisible rule in some official Pokémon rulebook that says Pokémon can't be based on objects? Not that I can recall, since the Magnemite, Voltorb and Grimer evolution lines (from Gen I) exist.
* Tropers/Amber72004, I was watching LS Mark's video on Shut Up Cartoons when he shows black and white clips of people crying and that's he uses the annoying baby crying sound effect in the background, The sound effect was very annoying, so I skipped it. Why would you add a baby crying sound effect in background with footage of adults crying? That's like using a child crying sound effect used in background with footage of old people crying, That is just annoying that this baby crying sound is used in the video.

* Tropers/LucienRen: Its sequel follows the same path, with a Pikachu that is shown as level 6, despite having defeated legendaries, the worst part this second part came out shortly after Ash became world champion. Which goes to show that no matter how many achievements Ash has, he will always be a loser to Gumbino.



* Trialman: I used to enjoy the Randomizer Nuzlockes done by [=MrShawnTRods=], until he did one with [[VideoGame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon Ultra Sun]]. Specifically, it was on episode 6 or 8, I can't be bothered checking, where he had a shiny Froakie. He eventually got the Froakie to evolve, and due to the randomizer, it became a Chatot. His immediate reaction was to release it, making it dead. His reasoning being that Chatot is weak. Firstly, I really disliked this, as it defies the message that the Pokemon series itself has, about not judging just on strength. Secondly, it defies part of the appeal of a Nuzlocke in the first place, being that you need to take what you get, no matter how strong or weak it is. And thirdly, it was the culmination of my big problem with the whole playthrough up to that point, that he was being far too negative. He constantly claimed he would try to be positive, while yelling at the game for completely trivial reasons, and this moment was what fully cemented his extreme negativity. Well, since he had that release knee-jerk reaction, I decided my knee-jerk reaction will be a dislike, and a click on the "unsubscribe" button.
* {{Tropers/ScarletNebula}} Okay so i usually liked Infamous Sphere's Infamous Queer video series, they're usually pretty alright. Not so much her review of ''Film/TheGrandBudapestHotel'' however, now she discovered she doesn't actually like the movie anymore, fair enough, but throughout the video i feel like it's just completely morose and depressing for no real reason. Like i can see why reviewers make video funny, cause otherwise the video is miserable and that's what this review was, miserable. You're reviewing a quirky Wes Anderson movie! Lighten up! Needless to say i stopped watching her videos cause it's not worth it if it's just gonna make me depressed.
* {{Tropers/HaileySawyer101}} This Dethroning Moment of Suck comes from JHall's Pokemon Sun Playthrough comic series. Since this series doesn't have its own section, I figured it would be appropriate to post this in the "OTHER" folder. Get up and grab a snack because I have quite a bit to say. Now I'll be honest. I actually do like this series and I look forward to reading new episodes every Thursday. It addresses various issues with Sun and Moon, such as the long wait to get your starter at the beginning of the game due to excessive dialogue, and at times, pokes fun at them. I also like some of Jhall's Pokemon, with my favorite being Mr. Snuggles, especially when he evolves into a talking Incinaroar that's a calm intelligent 'mon who can turn into a raging wrestler at a moment's notice. Hell, at times, it can even get a little emotional. Despite my love for the series, I'll admit that at times it can fall flat on its face in big and small ways. I think one of the most prominent examples of this for me is in episode 83. So in this episode, Jhall is visiting the Vast Poni Canyon and his Charjabug named Chompers is evolving because of the magnetic field in the area. When it evolves into Vikavolt, it's revealed by the Rotom Dex that Chompers' physical defense lowers when it evolves and Jhall says, "Right. Of course. Did God make this region as a prank or something?" Now what's wrong with this episode you may ask? Well let's take this one step at a time. So the plot of the episode is just one joke about how Charjabug's defense is lower when it evolves and because of this, its evolved form Vikavolt faints when it gets hit by a tiny rock and when Jhall finds out about the lowered defense thing he gets angry and rants about it for a bit. And that's it. That's all you get from that episode. There is a bit at the beginning of episode 84 where Jhall tells Chompers not to get hit and Chompers gets hit but it still isn't all that much. Now I wouldn't have much of a problem with this but the joke feels rather lackluster, as it doesn't seem fleshed out enough to have any sort of real punch. Now here are some interesting facts about Charjabug and Vikavolt. While it's true that Vikavolt's physical defense is lower than Charjabug's, it isn't anything to be too worried about. According to Bulbapedia, [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Charjabug's physical defense]] is 95 while [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Vikavolt_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Vikavolt's]] is only 90. So right here we're only looking at a five point difference, which really isn't all that drastic if you ask me. Also, at level 49, Charjabug is able to learn [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#By_leveling_up Iron Defense]], which boosts physical defense by two whole stages, making the whole "lowered physical defense upon evolution" thing a non-issue. So why I'm I bringing up this information? Well because I feel like Jhall could've used some of it to make the Charjabug/Vikavolt joke work better. In the series, Jhall's Charjabug is capable of being a beast in battle, as seen in episode 47. For the Pokemon who require being in an area with a magnetic field, such as Vast Poni Canyon, to evolve like Charjabug for example, they need to level up in that area first to trigger the evolution. So here's what I had in mind. At the beginning of the episode, we see a battle where Chompers uses Acrobatics or one of its other moves like Spark or Crunch to take out a wild or trainer owned Pokemon in one hit. Now while the levels of Jhall's Pokemon aren't mentioned in most of the series, I'll assume that Chompers is at level 48 due to the fact that Jhall is at Vast Poni Canyon, which you visit towards the end of Sun and Moon before you face the Elite Four. After Chompers wins, Jhall's Rotom Dex informs him that Chompers grew to level 49 and that it can learn Iron Defense, which boosts physical defense by two whole stages. The Rotom Dex asks Jhall if he'd like to replace one of Chomper's moves to allow it to learn Iron Defense. Jhall then arrogantly rejects the offer. The Rotom Dex says, "Are you sure? Its physical defense is going to be lowered by five points when it evolves. It also keeps its weakness to Rock type moves as well." Once again, Jhall rejects the offer and says that Chompers is perfect the way he is. When Chompers evolves, Jhall is very excited to the point where he's bouncing off of the walls of the panel or panels and says, "Yeah! No one can beat him now!" Then, Chompers is suddenly hit by a rock and gets taken down easily. Then, Jhall gets angry and says, "Did God make this region as a prank or something?" to which the Rotom Dex calmly replies, "No. You're just an idiot." Jhall's anger then intensifies to the point where he tries to hurt the Rotom Dex. Also, it could just be me but I feel like Jhall only looked at the base stats for Charjabug and Vikavolt and just made the episode without doing any additional research. As a result, the joke also feels rather rushed and lazy. It's a shame too because I know this series is capable of being really damn funny and putting more time and effort into its jokes.
* Tropers/CaptainTedium: I usually like blameitonjorge's videos, but the video "6 Surprisingly Dark Adaptations of Kid-Friendly Media" had one entry that rubbed me the wrong way. Said entry was the one for ''VideoGame/BombermanActZero''. I understand that the game is one of the most reviled DarkerAndEdgier reboots ever, and I can't really say that I am interested in it, but what I take issue with is how the entry made the hasty generalization that all DarkerAndEdgier reinventions of kids' media are crap and gave more emphasis on ''Act Zero'' being a shitty reboot than on how significantly darker it was than the original ''VideoGame/{{Bomberman}}'', when the whole point of the countdown was to list adaptations of media aimed at children that were unexpectedly darker than the original work, not to kvetch about dark adaptations that are considered inferior to the source material. Heck, it's clear that blameitonjorge didn't check for consistency, as the entries were narrated by different people and the same list had [[SamuraiJack/TropesSeason5 the 2017 revival]] of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'' that aired on Creator/AdultSwim, which actually acknowledged that it was well-received in addition to explaining how it was darker than the original Creator/CartoonNetwork run. The video hasn't made me give up on checking out blameitonjorge's videos, but I really hope that next time he makes sure that the videos' entries aren't narrated by people who miss the point of the video.
* Tropers/{{Keyblade333}}: I used to really enjoy ''Franchise/DragonBall'' youtuber [=AnimeAjay=] due to his breakdowns of various episodes within the franchises in terms of animation, and the production behind them. However what ultimately made me cross into disliking him was his reaction to ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'' episode 71's English dub, where he absolutely lost his shit on twitter about Hit saying: "[[AscendedMeme Time to make the Doughnuts]]". While YMMV on the ''Super'' dub, the sheer levels of anger he displayed towards the dub and community for disagreeing with him was enough to make me unsub and unfollow on twitter, especially when he became a {{Hypocrite}} and called people out for being toxic, but was being toxic himself to people who disagreed with him. His negative attitude also caused his blind fans to actually target the voice actors in involved as well. Even though many other youtubers in the community called him out on his behavior, he refused to apologize, even attacking other content creators over it.
* Tropers/CJCroen1393: Turkey Tom is already fairly controversial, but his video on WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter's [=IndieGogo=] campaign ''really'' qualifies for one simple reason: He briefly accuses Mr. Enter of being a pedophile. Oh I'm sorry, did I say "briefly"? I meant "repeatedly" and "at least five or six times", to the point that after a while, [[PaedoHunt it doesn't even sound like a joke anymore]], it sounds like Turkey Tom ''actually believes'' that Mr. Enter is a pedophile. What's his evidence? That he wanted to make a cartoon about children and has written "atrocious books" (that TT [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch admitted to not actually reading]]) told from the perspective of children. As Mr. Enter himself ends up pointing out in a response video he made, by that logic ''everyone who has ever made a children's cartoon'' should be considered a pedophile. I get that he's a ranting commentator and that sometimes, that job involves some insults, but this is just taking things way too far.
** Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I remember another unnecessary insult made by Turkey Tom, and he even acknowledged that it was unnecessary! In his video where he reads some user comments from his "The Problems with Anime" video, he at one point responds to a user who made an immature comment that said something like "Fuck you, anime is awesome." But when Turkey Tom points out that said user has a profile picture from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', he says something like "[[FanHater Real mature! Really shows how much of a stupid baby you are!]] [[{{Hypocrite}} But I don't know you, so I can't make that assumption.]]" If Turkey Tom knew that he shouldn't make assumptions like that, why did he insult that other user in that way in the first place? So basically, this moment can be summed up by Mr. Enter's catchphrase: "What I'm doing is wrong, I know it's wrong, but I'm gonna do it anyway!"
* LampreyKurage: So, about gillythekid; he isn't bad, but I wouldn't call him good. But one part of his ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' Flash Games video stuck out to me, and not in a good way. Near the end, he talks about how he learned that some of the games he played in past Flash Games were made using Scratch, which is a program for schools that teaches kids how to make flash games. Since it's for kids, it does have limited features, which is one of his prime complaints for it. I could tolerate that...but then at the very end he started insulting a fanmade Zelda game made on Scratch (with admittedly below average controls, but still). Not only does he not understand that the features are limited so Scratch is easily accessible to kids, he's essentially badmouthing a child who could've potentially wanted to be good at programming and damaging their self-esteem by insulting it and not giving them any constructive criticism.
* Tropers/BattleMaster: I've enjoyed reading Website/NotAlwaysRight for years, but recently there was a story about a woman at a pet grooming service having a freakout over being charged $3 more than she was expecting. [[spoiler: We're suddenly told that the OP later found out that the woman killed her dogs and was arrested]] with no warning. Many readers were understandably upset about this and said that especially given that Not Always Right is typically a family-friendly humor site, a trigger warning would have been appropriate. Two days later, a story was published with a title that mocked trigger warnings. Not cool at all.
* Tropers/DukeNukem4ever: ''Ruby Rose [=VS=] Ragna the Bloodedge'' Death Battle Exhibition is a true mess from start to end (what was with [[spoiler: Ruby using almost every signature move of hers and thus winning the fight and Ragna dying for not using any special attacks of his?]]) But no, the main problem is the episode starting with a teaser for the future [=RWBY=] episodes. After seeing this advertisement I immediately knew who would win this battle. [[spoiler: And I was completely right, because Screwattack and Rooster Teeth care so much about their franchise that they are willing to let its [[CreatorsPet characters]] completely obliterate their enemies in Death Battle, One Minute Melee and Death Battle Exhibition (granted, Weiss eventually losing in one Death Battle episode downplays this a bit, but my point still stands.]]
** Tropers/SavageSamurai: I agree but for slightly different reasons. [[spoiler: The main problem is that it's a gigantic advertisement for RWBY. If you're watching the Website/YouTube release, there is even an ad for RWBY Volume 6. However, anyone who's read the description notes that it's a battle between two scythe wielders. Ragna uses his scythe two times and it isn't even apparent that he's used it. I had to actually pause the video several times to even realise he'd used it. Now I don't care that it was biased; to an extent every DBX is biased because the victor is usually determined by the animator anyway. I don't care that it was an ad by Creator/RoosterTeeth. OK that's a lie, I do care but it doesn't mean much in the long run so I can forgive it. I mean if you have the means to promote it, then by all means promote it. However, the thing that gets me is that there was a much better person they could've used to fight Ragna, promote the show and and actually make the fight more interesting and make sense; Qrow Branwen. His Semblance is [[WindsOfDestinyChange inflicting bad luck]] so an argument could be made that he actually could beat Ragna. They're both CosmicPlaythings and use [[ShapeshifterWeapon weapons that are primarily swords but can shapeshift into scythes if the wielder wants]]. For all intents and purposes the description essentially lies and the match would've been much more interesting had Ruby been replaced by her uncle]].
* Tropers/{{chucknormie}}: I didn't like the ''WebVideo/YouTube'' ''Rewind 2018'' for many reasons, but I can at least tolerate or understand why they did those things. The most popular [=YouTubers=] like LetsPlay/PewDiePie, Creator/ShaneDawson, WebVideo/IDubbbzTV, WebVideo/FouseyTube, WebVideo/RiceGum, Creator/TanaMongeau, and everyone ever associated with Team 10 being left out and replaced with a cast of no-names (excluding Creator/CaseyNeistat and Creator/LillySingh)? Defensible. The wooden acting and cringey dialogue? Defensible. "Old media" celebrities like Creator/WillSmith hogging the spotlight? Defensible. What I couldn't defend, however, was the moment in the middle of the video when the [=YouTubers=] take a break from recapping viral trends of 2018 to pat themselves on the back for "having the bravery" to talk about controversial topics like mental illness or LGBT issues. The problem is that [=YouTube=] is notorious for demonetizing videos that discuss those topics and many more deemed "controversial" because they don't consider it to be advertiser friendly, which makes this line completely hypocritical and insulting to every creator who's actually tried to have a frank discussion on these topics and ended up being unable to earn money from their videos because of it. This particular segment made me realize there's a steep gap in how [=YouTube=] executives believe the site to be and how it actually is.
* Tropers/IzzyUneasy: So, here I am, wanderin' on Fanbyte, havin' the time of my life. I got alarmed when they separated characters into tiers(i hate tiers), but then I saw that they called Yoshi a tax evader... and my heart dropped down my gut. Enough said.
* Tropers/Metalhead14: I love WebOriginal/ScareTheater to death, but his "Desmond Is Amazing" video could have been handled a ''lot'' better, and hundreds of his other fans think so too. I get that he had good intentions, but the way he words everything is just ''awful'' and makes him seem incredibly dismissive of everything. He seemed way too easy on everyone involved; I'm not sure if he rushed this one out or was afraid of being politically incorrect, but he's usually better than this and this video didn't make him look very good. Desmond's situation is a '''very''' serious matter, and Scare didn't handle it properly. Thankfully, he's gotten back on his feet since, but that video really does deserve all the outrage it's gotten.
* Thefreepup: I'll admit, while I admire fellow deviantartist Cartuneslover16 for her ability to replicate any cartoon's style, there was one moment in particular that has soured my view on her. It was when she uploaded a picture honoring her late mom's birthday. The picture did a good job at creating such a heartwarming moment, up until I read the part of the description where she mentioned that the reason she added WesternAnimation/UncleGrandpa to the pic was because it renewed her faith in Cartoon Network while trash talking WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo While I can understand and respect her dislike for the show (even if I find it [[SoOkayItsAverage okay overall]]), I do not like how she chose to bring it up in a deviation that is meant to be a touching commemoration for someone who's passed away. It just makes her come across as a petty, whiny brat, which she most certainly isn't. This, combined with how I feel that she has gotten too brash and bitchy towards things she dislikes, has given me a reason to no longer be a fan of her or her work. I'm sorry, Cartuneslover16, but consider this goodbye for now.
* Tropers/{{distantsun}}: WebVideo/LordKaT's comment about Creator/TerryPratchett's "brain degenerating into mush" in his 10 Hardest Adventure Games video, in light of Pratchett's diagnosis with Alzheimer's, was at best an astoundingly bad accidental choice of words and at worst an unfunny, offensive attempt at a joke. I know a lot of LK's humor is on the dark, controversial side, and usually I can appreciate it, but this seriously crossed a line for the sake of an offhand comment that wasn't even particularly amusing even if you're not offended by it.
* Tropers/SickBritKid: While I normally like WebVideo/{{Benzaie}} and his charming, snarky French attitude, his video "TOP 5: Why ''Zelda Twilight Princess'' SUCKS" was just downright stupid (it was nothing but petty nitpicks that were used against the game a full five years ago when it came out), ignorant ([[{{Hypocrite}} really, Benzaie? You're gonna rail against ''Twilight Princess'' for having items that aren't used outside of the dungeons you acquire them in... Even though that showed up in ''Ocarina of Time'', which you shill on endlessly? Or you're gonna bitch about the final item being another Clawshot and how much that sucks... despite the longshot from Ocarina of Time basically just being a longer hookshot]]? Oh, and you're also gonna rail on the game's graphics, completely ignoring the fact that it was made for the UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube and then ported to the UsefulNotes/{{Wii}}?), and just came off like he was trying to bait fans of ''Twilight Princess'' into flaming him and get a whole bunch of views by either the TP fans who came to debate and/or flame him and the TP haters who came to defend his points of view. All in all, it was one of the worst game reviews since X-Play's ''Your Childhood Sucked: Final Fantasy 7''.
* fluffything: Normally, I like ''WebVideo/WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou'' and I find Nash (and Tara) to be pretty funny. But, good gods of bacon do I have a problem with the ending of the ''Regret At Leisure'' episode. Three words: [[FanHater Arlo's Pony Paradise]]. This isn't a good-natured joke at the series itself. No, it's a mean-spirited TakeThat towards the fandom. It basically boils down to "Bronies (and Pegasisters) are stupid for taking a cartoon geared towards little girls seriously!". And, yes, that is Nash's actual opinion on the fandom. Look, if you don't like a show, fine. But being a total dick towards a fandom you don't like. Just because they like to discuss the mythos and everything in a serious and mature discussion doesn't make them stupid.
* GGGG: ''Weekly Manga Recap'' from the 4th of September 2012, previously titled "[[Manga/{{Naruto}} Tobi is]] [[spoiler:Obito]]!" This was just after the non-legal scans hit the web and the massive title was spread across the TGWTG banner in huge lettering, meaning anybody who followed the ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' manga legally (from ''Magazine/ShonenJump'', etc.) or was following the anime had the big reveal spoiled. They were nice enough to change it later to "Tobi is...!" It felt like they were punishing the ''Naruto'' fandom who wanted to receive the story in a legitimate way.
* Tropers/InvaderWeezle: Oh, WebVideo/ChrisStuckmann, it's a shame that I want to leave an entry for this guy. I've always considered him to be my favorite movie reviewer on Website/YouTube, being in that perfect middle ground where he's just a regular guy enjoying movies but then also trying to gain a greater understanding for the medium. But at some point it feels like he's changed to where he has acts more superior to others than he did before, and that's especially apparent in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GamrRXyIUs Analyzed review]] of ''Film/RogueOne''. First off, he had already done [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxWFm5kUBGk two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZHrFZuKYk8 reviews]] of ''Rogue One'', plus he co-starred in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pyzs1MPMXB4 Nostalgia Critic's review]] where, despite following a script meant for comedy, he still presents his same unironic opinions that he presented in his reviews. Since these three videos all came out in December 2016 right around when the movie came out and the Analyzed review came out three months later, it would be fine if he had significantly changed his opinions or had some new perspective on the film, but he doesn't. His opinions are exactly the same as the three other videos he shared them in, and his perspectives are the same as any other think piece criticizing ''Rogue One''. But this isn't about his opinions on the movie, this is about his attitude in his Analyzed video. This video served no purpose but to call out the fans on liking the movie. The way he presented his criticisms in his other reviews was in a reasonably respectable "I felt like these things were weak, I thought these things didn't work, etc." attitude. But in the Analyzed review, his tone is incredibly condescending and passive aggressive to fans of the film, in a more "Stop defending this thing, I'm going to tell you why you're wrong" attitude. He paraphrases common defenses for the film in an indisputably mocking tone, and he blatantly says that you would only really like ''Rogue One'' if you're simple-minded when it comes to ''Star Wars ''and you don't appreciate the "deep" aspects like he does. Which leads into the absolute worst part of this video: everything to do with his "Phantom Menacing" term, which he says is when people are in denial that a movie disappointed them. He's mentioned Phantom Menacing before, but I brushed it off at the time because I won't pretend it doesn't sometimes happen where your own hype can get you to enjoy something a lot more on the first experience than you will in subsequent times. In this video however, it really pissed me off because he's using this to belittle fans of things he doesn't like. He boldly asks "Are people Phantom Menacing ''Rogue One''?" It's like he can't accept that he's in the minority opinion on something, so he just assumes that everyone else is in denial and he's the correct one in all of this, and eventually everyone will come to their senses and agree with him. And combined with his aforementioned comment about how you would only like ''Rogue One'' if all ''Franchise/StarWars'' is to you is "Lol Excitement Action Visuals Fighting Explosions!", it's pretty clear that he doesn't think highly of the intelligence of ''Rogue One'' fans. For that matter, this whole Phantom Menacing thing is insulting to ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' fans. Chris acts like everyone came to their senses and decided Phantom Menace is bad, and there certainly were fans that changed their mind on the movie, but the movie still to this day has plenty of fans who unironically like and defend it. Are they just still in denial after 18 years? Attitudes like Chris's do nothing but try to discredit perspectives. Another Troper included Creator/DougWalker's Disneycember video on ''The Phantom Menace'' on this page for how Doug acts like fans are in denial and are too dumb to realize the movie is bad, and it's the same thing with Chris' video. Just an all-around insulting video that served no purpose but to tell people how dumb they are and how them praising something upsets him, and Chris should probably check his ego.
* Tropers/MagnusForce: I like ''WebVideo/TREYTheExplainer'' and think his videos are excellently researched. However, when watching his "Top 13 Most Inaccurate Fossil Reconstructions", his bonus example made me {{facepalm}}. He presents us with a reconstruction of a winged ankylosaur called ''Aeolosaurus'' and goes on a sort of mini-rant about how ridiculous it is. The problem is that he took the illustration completely out of context without double-checking it - something I immediately realized because the same image also had a dinosaur called ''[[Film/TheBeastFromTwentyThousandFathoms Rhedosaurus]]'' (which he completely glossed over). With a simple reverse image source, I traced the same pic to [[https://chasmosaurs.blogspot.com/2013/09/vintage-dinosaur-art-be-dinosaur.html a children's book]] that asked young readers to identify two fake dinosaurs in a group of real species, with ''Aeolosaurus'' and ''Rhedosaurus'' being the answers. In other words, that winged ankylosaur was never meant to be taken seriously! He was fooled by a children's quiz that had deliberately invoked ArtisticLicensePalaeontology to make a point! Even worse is that he has discussed kaiju before, so you think he would have been tipped off by the inclusion of ''Rhedosaurus'' (aka the monster that inspired Godzilla!) and realized the pic was purely facetious! For a guy like him, whose videos are all about meticulous research and promoting scientific accuracy, that's a mistake so stupid it's embarrassing.
* Tropers/AwesomeReesee: To be very clear, I hate the reception family wikis, however the atrocious youtubers wiki article titled Angry Mice Lovers Attack Mouse Channel really rubs me the wrong way. Mainly due to literal defense of [[CruellaToAnimals animal cruelty]]. The article [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer literally]] begins with a description of mice and saying that they’re atrocious because they crap on kitchen counters. They then said that they were defending mice for no reason. Again, seriously. Even though the person who uploaded the video was of him setting up a glue trap which he manages to catch 7 mice in the glue trap. He gives them a little ride, and then throws them in the trash. They then said [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman it was okay because they were vermin]]. They also accused the comments of being from [[AnimalWrongsGroup PETA]], yeah, as if [[SarcasmMode all animal rights supporters support PETA]] and not only that they are pretty much hypocrites because of criticizing Peluchin Entertainmen despite him doing the same thing to cats as one commentator said: Why? The animals are being tortured. Any well-rounded, sane human being is going to have a problem with that, regardless of what animal it is. He got a negative vote as a result
** Tropers/SuperSonicAndMario2: The article has thankfully been deleted. It was crap anyway.
** Tropers/MisterToodleoo: One time when I couldn’t remember the word “Miraheze” and was therefore Googling the new Closing Logos Wiki, I stumbled across the Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki, which is a wiki from the group mentioned above. At first, it was interesting to read about the toxicity, even though I noticed an attitude that I don’t like, which I will explain shortly. The Dethroning Moment was when I found that they have an entire page (which I don’t plan on reading) about not one, but two insults that they despise. The first one refers to a certain disease that happens to also be a Dutch curse word, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the people behind the wiki don’t know that. The second one, however, refers to my mental condition (take a guess what it is; it’s often associated with socially awkward geniuses). The reason I’m typing this is because I feel that if too much negative attention is drawn to “improper” use of the latter word, people will be afraid to make metaphors, positive or negative, about it. It would also cause people like me to have OCD thoughts that involve the words in question constantly popping into their heads. (By the way, I had a positive experience involving the word that describes me, but I won’t type it here.) So, in conclusion, I stumbled across a wiki, started reading it, found my BerserkButton and left the site! It’s as simple as that!
* Tropers/{{Nightfurywitch}}: I like WebVideo/RalphTheMoviemaker. I really do. His ''Series/MysteryDiners'' video, his ''Wish Upon'' video and tons others are great! But...I can’t watch his ''Film/FantasticFour2015'' review. Why? It feels like he just wants to hate on kids. It’s about 2-3 minutes straight of it, with no hint he’s joking.
* Tropers/MetalAiAi: [=PatMac=]'s video on [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic Bootlegs]] starts off perfectly fine, then at the 6 minute mark he suddenly makes a quip about how factories would still be producing a line of cheap figures after the death of the universe and erasure of mankind. Here's the problem: I was close to shaking off an existential crisis when I was watching, expecting an entertaining video, only for that cheap joke to make me lose all motivation and even made me consider becoming a LazyBum for the rest of my life because everything would be pointless in the end. Fortunately, I was able to snap myself out of this funk, [[FridgeHorror but what if someone who was suffering from depression wanted to watch the video to cheer themselves up? There's no indication that the video will have a joke like that.]] What I'm trying to say here is that the ultimate fate of life and the universe can be an extremely sensitive subject, because it is a common reason for suicide.
* Tropers/MightyMewtron: I really did enjoy Shady Doorags at least casually, since his channel is the main place to get fairly-consistent analysis on shows like ''WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman.'' However, I'm very uncomfortable after watching his take on ''WesternAnimation/TucaAndBertie,'' titled [[SympathyForTheDevil "Empathy for Your Enemies."]] Many commenters rightfully called Shady out on his take, which calls out the show for portraying Dirk and Pastry Pete as villains without considering their perspective. The video just reeks of both a major misunderstanding of both ''Tuca'' and ''[=BoJack=]'' as well as major uncomfortable implications regarding sexual harassment. Shady seems convinced that the show needs to explore the motivations of sexual harassers and explains that these characters may not have realized they were doing wrong, as if commenting about a coworker's breasts when you're not their friend or holding your employee's head over a boiling pot is an easy mistake anybody could make. He brings up ''[=BoJack=]'''s sympathetic portrayal of immoral characters as a standard for ''Tuca'' to reach, despite ''Tuca'' being [[LighterAndSofter more cartoony and cathartic of a show]] than ''[=BoJack=]'', not to mention that the latter show makes it very clear that the main character's behavior should not be dismissed just because of his FreudianExcuse, and the last ''[=BoJack=]'' season released before this video- which Shady had talked about!- practically revolved around that point. Additionally, Shady seemed to misrepresent some of these situations to prove his point. He says that Bertie's reactions weren't justified because some women might like the things these men were doing...despite the fact that Bertie did have a distressed sexual arousal to Pete's harassment, and it was only after seeing another girl harassed the same way did she realize her mistake. That was the clip with which he opened the video! And he completely glosses over Bertie's [[spoiler:RapeAsBackstory]] which informs a lot of her behavior in these situations, which ironically neglects Bertie's perspective in a video about seeing all perspectives. [[DoubleStandard He also never defends or even mentions Tallulah, a female antagonist,]] making the video less about "empathy for enemies" and more about "empathy for sexual harassers." Overall an extremely uncomfortable video full of UsefulNotes/VictimBlaming where he all but says that he can't relate to this show because he's a man, acting offended that, in the [[Series/MadMen sea of famous shows]] [[Series/BreakingBad with less-than-moral men]] [[Series/TheSopranos as protagonists,]] this show [[CatharsisFactor doesn't expect women to forgive their abusers.]] It's a perspective that taints his ''[=BoJack=]'' videos for me as well, sadly enough.
* Tropers/FalconPain: On the subject of ''Literature/SailorNothing'', there are a number of things I find it hard to stand in a work. Two of them are {{Author Tract}}s that go against my principles and characters behaving illogically in order to make the plot happen. So I had a real problem with the movie theater scene, a scene that is largely irrelevant to the plot in which a working adult refuses to sell his product to an interested consumer simply because she is unpopular at his child's school, leading to a speech in favor of illegal downloading.
* Tropers/Connor2107: During MerkDEnglish's playthrough of ''VideoGame/LifeIsStrange'', Mark makes no effort to hide his dislike for the game, in particular Chloe. He also makes several edgy remarks throughout his gameplay, none of which really bothered me... until near the end of the first episode, where Chloe reveals to Max that Nathan drugged her before the events of the game. Mark mistakenly believes that Chloe was raped by Nathan and says she got what she deserved for trying to scam him. I don't care who someone is or what they've done, saying they deserved to get raped for it is absolutely disgusting.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: In Ottomagic Critic’s commentary on Logomax’s commentary on [[Website/GoAnimate Brendan Barney]]’s harsh message to The Previews Guy, Ottomagic Critic brings up the fact that The Previews Guy has raged in allcaps when correcting people on movie release information. So, what’s the next negative thing he says about The Previews Guy? It’s that he “uploads fucking [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Barney]] VHS openings”. Hold it right there! The Previews Guy has that username because he uploads all kinds of VHS and DVD openings, not just Barney ones. So, since when is associating with anything to do with Barney considered a crime against maturity? Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if Ottomagic Critic [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch hasn’t even watched Barney]]! This is where I gave up on even skimming through this video.
* Tropers/{{Exxolon}}: While ''WebVideo/EpicRapBattlesOfHistory'' is pretty much critic proof there is one moment that while not outright sucking was definitely a disappointment. After Boba Fett's brief cameo in the Hitler vs Vader 3 battle his actual battle vs Deadpool while not bad didn't live up to the high energy style showcased there with a slower and more measured delivery in a lower pitched voice. I was looking forward to Fett rapid firing zingers and got fairly pedestrian verses instead.
** [=InTheGallbladder=]: I gave up around "Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump." Nothing to do with my personal views--the breaking point came with the "surprise" return of Abraham Lincoln Riding A Bald Eagle, a twist so obvious I'm not even bothering to spoiler it. There's just no way in hell for three white rappers to set up a rhyme with "riggers" [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt that didn't foreshadow a]] CurseCutShort from three [[PainfulRhyme (incredibly clumsy)]] lines ahead. And then Lincoln fumbles it from the very start, rhyming "blah blah blah" with... nothing, or at least not an actual word. I'd noticed a drop in writing quality in favor of spectacle from the onset of season 5, but nothing else illustrated it quite as well.
* Tropers/{{dsneybuf}}: Tony Goldmark's ''WebVideo/OneMovieLater'' "review" of ''Film/{{Cats}}'' went from "obnoxious" to "unwatchable" when the OverlyLongGag of Tony and his friends screaming in horror at the movie (a gag that begins before Tony even drives to the theater) stretched all the way into the "Spoilers" section. At this point, it became evident that the video would provide nothing substantial at all, just EarRape (a lot of which I fast-forwarded through, in feeble hopes of finding an actual review). It already had a lot going against it beforehand, between ''Cats'' having nothing to do with theme parks, Tony Tweeting his dread for the movie (which only has its own episode because it won a viewers' poll), and me doubting that his persona could fit a discussion of a Broadway musical. Unfortunately, the final result squanders the opportunity to branch out of his comfort zone. The general cheapness of his channel also renders unlikely the possibility that he rushed this out to make time for something grand.
* Tropers/{{Pgj1997}}: I'm in the minority here when I say that [=GameDude8899=]'s reviews aren't as bad as people thought they were, but I will agree that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hyLB1tIIII Mario Smash Kart]] is him at his lowest. The whole video is just one big disorganized mess. His arguments fly by way too fast, giving the viewer zero time to take them in. Now, all of [=GameDude=]'s videos feel like this in my opinion (him listing off bullet points, and never explaining himself any further), but this review in particular felt really aimless. One minute, he's talking about the little issues he has with the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' series, the next he's complaining about the ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' games completely out of nowhere (I guess he pulled a Website/ScrewAttack by thinking "you can play as Mario, so they're Mario games"), and then he complains about ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' for some reason. All throughout, there are these extremely anecdotal arguments that I can only assume were just thrown in as jokes (not that they're even funny to begin with), most of which drag on for way too long and throw off the pacing. I do agree with some of his arguments (like how poor ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'''s online was, or the lack thereof in ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii''), but can someone tell me what the point of this video even was?
* [=InTheGallbladder=]: WebVideo/RealTimeFandub's take on the ''VideoGame/SonicRiders'' series. In particular: The climax of ''Zero Gravity'' doesn't resolve in a cutscene. How could they have addressed this? Have the cast speak over gameplay footage, as in the legendary ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' dub. How did they address this? Five long, self-indulgent minutes of Penny and Marble mutely dicking around in VideoGame/GarrysMod, for them and the rest of the cast to kill time talking over. It's worse in that it isn't a BigLippedAlligatorMoment; they try to make it a plot point in what few minutes are left. Ryan, the only actor whose lines were consistently good throughout, put it best:
-->I don't use the word "fucking stupid" loosely...
* [=PickePacMan=] (LetsPlay/SuperLPHeroes): I've been watching the races for a lot of months and enjoyed a lot of them despite people like [=GoldGleeGamer1=] being an unfunny CaptainObvious and never making an effort to improve channel problems and Sinisterkun's obnoxious background noise drowning people out and ruining the commentary. It's because a lot of the other members being actually entertaining are why I watch the races, but the "Wizards & Warriors" race is what killed the whole group thanks to [=GoldGleeGamer1=] basically saying "I'm not going to bother fixing what's broken" and everyone getting into topics that are both sensitive or viewers watch to get away from. When Sinisterkun said "Too bad!" after Lady Lexis said "Let's stay out of politics" was the third strike in a single race killing the entire channel.
* Saberwulf2018: WebVideo/TheCriticalDrinker's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LKaBY222KQ review]] of ''Film/RamboLastBlood'' failed in so many ways possible, with most of it relying heavily on Critical Research Failure (no pun intended). First off, while ''Last Blood'' was meant to be the GrandFinale of the ''Rambo'' saga as a whole, he's not the kind of character to get an epic poignant heroic sendoff. He even goes as far as to claim that he isn't Rambo at all, despite being played by Creator/SylvesterStallone, due to him being more talkative, clean-cut, and easy-going, even going as far as to call him an imposter. He had just came home for once, and stayed there peacefully for years. In the [[Film/FirstBlood first film]], he got back from Vietnam and hadn't settled back yet. In [[Film/RamboFirstBloodPartII the second]], he just got out of prison. [[Film/RamboIII The third]], he was living peacefully in Thailand and was raising money to help monks build a monastery. In [[Film/RamboIV the fourth]], Rambo was depressed and nihilistic and wanted to stay isolated from society. Now come the fifth film, Rambo had found a home, stayed settled for years, and also raised a family. He was also on pills to cope with his PTSD. And Rambo built a tunnel under his home because he was a Vietnam vet, and it was heavily inspired by the Vietcong utilizing the underground tunnel network during the war. Then he goes as far as to criticize not saying which college Gabriela was going to. I thought starting off on general education was what was needed before deciding what field you were to major in. Gabriela's father was just meant to be irredeemable and selfish, and besides, most baddies in ''Rambo'' were always one-dimensional. And the reason why Rambo didn't do any recon in an urban environment is probably because of him being on his pills for his illness. Also, the HumanTraffickers [[BondVillainStupidity keeping Rambo alive]] [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown after beating him to near death]] was out of pure arrogance, as well as Rambo being so easy to gang up on and not seemingly pose a threat. They also wanted to make an example out of him and Gabriela so that they could scare away anyone who confronted them. When Rambo went back to rescue Gabriela from the traffickers, [[DropTheHammer he used a hammer on them]], not an axe. And when Rambo stopped taking the pills, that was when he decided to go back to killing. Again, the pills kept his PTSD at bay. The reason why he built his tunnel to be wired with explosives was because he wanted to make Hugo and his men feel desperation, fear, and helplessness, like what Gabriela did. And the villains did figure out that Rambo was responsible for one of their brothels getting hit, but Hugo had told Victor to let it go and ignore him, to just go back to business. And the worst thing is him criticizing TheStinger, where Rambo rides into the sunset rather than have him die from his wounds. Rambo is not the kind of character to be killed off so easily, it's almost as if he wanted Rambo to die in the end. While he may not have hated the film out of political differences like what most critics have been, I still feel like he was just being spiteful towards it.
* eirigfi: I love Stories of Sodor and most of the episodes. Most of them. Shunted ins't necessarily bad just... weaker. It retells the race between Thomas and Bertie but with real life consequences. The issue comes after the race. To be fair to Edward, he does make some good points that it was stupid and reckless but I think he's making a big deal out of this. Yes racing down the branchline is risky but no one was hurt and this is Thomas' first offense that he knew of. From there, things don't get bad again until the very end where Edward mentions that Thomas and Eric weren't very happy with him when they return it's just swept under the rug. Gee Edward, why would they be so upset at you for overacting? Oh and one more thing, wasn't your temper part of the reason for the closure of your old home Edward? You should have learned from that. But yeah, a pretty weak episode to a great series.
* Tropemaster849: While I prefer the normal ones, I do have a soft spot for Death Battle Exhibition as they are extremely fast paced and I tend to prefer the fights to the research sections. As such, I was really excited for the opener of Season Five, which was ''Thor vs. Vegeta''. But when the video was over, all I could wonder was if the team was trying to screw up as much as possible. First off, the actual fight is only around thirty seconds, with more time on the Ringmaster. Second, the fight has some of the worst 3D animation ever seen. Everything felt way too slow for a fight between two god powered beings. Finally, the death of the loser(who I won't say for spoiler reasons) was so tame I couldn't even tell how they died. While the following battle, ''Mulan vs. Lucina'', did redeem the season, it shouldn't have needed too.
* ScarletNebula: I don't mind Rock Critic/Crash Thompson but The Worst Rock Hits of 1990 has one really bad part that sinks the video for me. So for an hour he builds up the number 1 choice for the list, only for it to be... Cherry Pie. Okay that's fine, the band doesn't even like that song themselves so that isn't the issue. It's the fact that it was a build up to a really awful period joke. Which, besides being gross anyway, just wasn't funny.
** Alex D. Large: I find Crash Thompson to be one of the worst Doug Walker clones out there. He fits the quota so well: over-the-top screaming in an ear-grating high-pitched voice, shit-talking the things he hates, is a horrendous impersonator, and being critical towards those people like he thinks they're going to listen to him. And some of his reviews run for far, far too long. When he rebranded his channel, he said that he would stop the long videos, [[LyingCreator but wouldn't you know it, he's still doing long-ass videos]]. Anyway, one of those examples comes from his review of Bad Religion's "Into the Unknown". Not even thirty seconds in the review, he note that the band's name should not be confused with Godsmack's song of the same name. As he plays a live performance of the song, he starts outright screaming that the song consists of only one note, and screams further at the crowd cheering. That made me shut the video off outright. What makes matters worse is that when actually covers the song for his "I Hate This Song" series, he plays that same clip, only he speaks over his screaming lines in a monotone voice. [[SarcasmMode Like that's going to make that any better]].
** darksteel: I generally like Crash's videos, especially his long ones (I liked that "Into the Unknown" video, aside from the pointless Godsmack jab). But ever since he dropped the Rock Critic moniker, his output has gotten less and less consistent. By far his worst moment, though, was his "Worst Albums of 2020" video, where he put "F8" by Music/FiveFingerDeathPunch at #1 solely because he hated the band's music video for "Living the Dream". He assumed that it was promoting anti-masking, which in reality isn't true, as nobody in the band (Zoltan Bathory included) said they were against COVID mandates or masks or anti-vaxxers. Even if that is true, it still reeks of hypocrisy on Crash's part, considering he has shown to have no problem whatsoever giving glowing praise to Music/SystemOfADown and {{Music/Deftones}} and not putting them in "the bin" despite the two bands both having members that have been FAR much explicit in being anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers then FFDP. So him putting "F8" at #1 just feels a convenient excuse for him to bash the band (and their fans) yet again, which feels oh-so-tiresome and predictable. His reviews of their albums have always been pretty bad, feeling like he's stereotyping them and their fans needlessly and this essentially just confirmed that.
* [=treehugger0369=]: I love [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVTKO1D_G19UlK03ezaADag Snarled]]. I love creepypastas, but my ADHD won't tolerate reading full-length ones, so Snarled's "Something Scary" videos provide a good "bite-size" dose of horror that doesn't overwhelm my attention span. That said, after three years and change of that series (from their first Something Scary video to the uploading of the video I'm ranting about), they dropped one hell of a dud: "[[https://youtu.be/fn6ndXDrJLc Whispers That Bite]]". The cliffnotes version is: a girl is constantly shunned and bullied by her classmates after moving to a new school, and is just told by her school councellor to not let it get to her (Red Flag #1). Upon arriving home one day, she goes on social media and the taunts continue their via her heckler's FB posts, and she begins to believe that what they're saying about her is true, culmiating in her suddenly being covered in unsightly welts that resemble insect bites ([[SarcasmMode which does wonders for her self-esteem in the face of everyone calling her a freak and a monster]]). They go away the following day after she stands up to her bullies mocking her for the welts, but the whole thing just rubbed me the wrong way: It's basically treated like the welts are the victim's fault for letting those words get to her, instead of the bullies for saying those words in the first place. I'm gonna copy and paste my comment on that video here, and hopefully this explains why this is one of the few videos I intentionally clicked the "dislike" button on. (Trigger Warning for the spoilered paragraph: [[spoiler: Suicidal Ideation]])

[[spoiler: As someone who contemplated suicide due to bullying back in high school, this story really hit home for me. And every time I tried to tell my teacher, I was always told "Woman up and deal with it." (I was the only girl in a class of engineering students, hence the bullying; this was a class at a vocational school.) They only took action when, after venting to the councellor about this and other things (mainly finals stress on top of the news that I'd be moving to Florida--I lived in Maryland--immediately after I graduated that year), I was handed a harassment report to fill out and I let slip on the "extra comments" section that I was having those kinds of thoughts as a consequence. I'm not convinced anything would have ever been done if they didn't learn that they were close to having a dead body on their hands. And I only had like five classmates out of a class of like 18 (go figure how many other students were in the school) doing this; I probably wouldn't have lived long enough to fill out the report if every single student was ganging up on me.]]\\
\\
Chris here was pretty much being told the same thing I was; suck it up and try not to let it affect you. But it's not that simple, especially in the time of your life where you're experiencing the most changes and you're trying to figure yourself out. That's the time of your life where outside comments have the most influence, and when you're hearing them every single day, from so many other people, and can't even escape them when you leave (as evidenced by her seeing them on her FB feed), and are hearing or seeing no contradicting evidence that they're right, it's impossible to not start to believe them. It doesn't matter how much of a loner you think you are; humans are naturally social creatures, and being shunned by literally everyone else can be devastating to a person's psyche, no matter how "above it all" they want to be.\\
\\
It shouldn't be on the victim to not let themselves get hurt by other people's words and actions, and the school failed her when the councillor implied that that was what needed to be done instead of taking steps to have the bullies actually disciplined. And don't @ me with "They can't punish every student"; if every student is picking on this one kid, that's an even bigger failure on the school's part because that kind of environment doesn't come out of nowhere.
* Tropers/{{AustinDR}}: While I mostly watch ''WebVideo/BlackCriticGuy'' for his anime reviews, his reviews on films tend to be more of an iffier subject his more contentious reviews being films like ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda3'' and ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2''. But the one review that really irked me was his take on the infamous Netflix film ''Film/{{Cuties}}''. I found myself slightly agreeing with his points such as the film attempting to have a message about over sexualization being wrong (even if I think the film botched it by showing that there were little to no consequences for the girls acting out; rather the film looked like it was ''rewarding'' their behavior). But where I felt Tony missed the mark is exactly ''why'' people were outraged with the film: that would be the casting. Over 600 hundred girls auditioned for the main role and, if it isn't abundantly clear by now, children cannot consent to that kind of stuff. While you could say they accepted the role, there is little way that they would mentally be able to understand the full implications behind what they are being tasked to do. As such, the film shoots its own message in the foot by setting out doing what it preaches against.
* Tropers/{{KrazyTVWatcher}}: While I will admit that DaveTheUsher and his playthrough of the Sega Genesis video game Barney's Hide and Seek was hilarious at times, I did not like the end of the final part. Leading up to the final level, the Farm, Dave's freakouts were in between for me. When he got to the farm, him telling the "noise" in the music to shut up then later mimicking the music had me laughing each time he did it. However, my DMOS is during the credits, Dave outright said that [[MeaninglessMeaningfulWords the developers had no shame in wanting the music and sounds]]. What really turned me away from the video is when DTU yelled out [[PrecisionFStrike "FUCK YOU!"]] to Eric Swanson, in addition to him saying that he [[ArsonMurderandJaywalking should rot in Hell just because he composed music and sounds for the game]]. Again, while I admit that his playthrough of the game was funny at times, this was not one of his better moments.
* Tropers/{{AustinDR}}: I am subscribed to both Top 5 Videos and their horror-themed spinoff. In their list of "Top 5 Horror Movie Villains We All Root For", they list [[Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal Lecter]] as being their number one pick on the grounds that Lecter didn't really kill anyone and attacked the police officers because they were being rude." This, however, completely ignores the fact that he gruesomely murders the guards, including going as far as to wear one of their faces as a mask, when he was rightfully being detained.
* Tropers/Kirby0189: There was a "Top 10 Worst VideoGame/MegaManX Weapons" video I found a little problematic with some strange logic (such the entry on the [[VideoGame/MegaManX5 Dark Hold]] focusing on it being too similar to the [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Time Stopper]] when he doesn't like weapons being reused from past games when it being just as bad as the Time Stopper because it only works on one boss and cannot be turned off until it quickly runs out of energy could have made a substaintial point all on its own), but it still made a lot of good points. The #1 spot was a giant cheat however, as it lists every VideoGame/MegaManX7 weapon. X7 is my GuiltyPleasure, but even I admit that most of its weapons are awful, and the video expressed similar thoughts to mine in how they consume too much weapon energy and X's targeting makes them useless compared to the regular X-Buster most of the time, but sticking all eight weapons into the same spot is a bad move because it implies that they are all equally bad. Really, the Moving Wheel or Explosion should have been in the #1 spot with entries all to their own unacompanied by the other six. Also, despite him trying to insist that it's not a cheat, the start of the video had him say that he had to scrape the bottom of the barrel for the early entries because there weren't enough truly-awful weapons to fill out ten spots. Then maybe you should have spread out some of the X7 weapons across the list to help pad it out with actually bad weapons? The entry on the Splash Laser was the worst. Anyone who was played X7 knows that this weapon's charged form tears through enemies and bosses, and the wiki says that it is the most powerful weapon X can obtain from a Maverick. This goes completely unaddressed, not even as a "yea it can do this, but on the other hand it sucks because...", with the entry showing it alongside footage of the [[VideoGame/MegaManX2 Bubble Splash]] and trying to make the point that it's too similar, even though the footage clearly shows the Bubble Splash firing a few small bubbles that float upward while the Splash Laser fires a stream of water that goes downward, and then the Splash Laser's charged form firing large bubbles straight forward in rapid sucession (and the Bubble Splash's charged form, which is really different from anything the Splash Laser offers, is conveniently left out). If the logic is that all bubble weapons are the same, then he should hate the Bubble Splash too for using bubbles like the [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Bubble Lead]]. If you're going to bash something from X7 (which I have no problem with because I know it's bad even if I enjoy it), at least make substantial points that don't make it look like you're grasping at straws.
* Tropers/AspieFangirl1984: I really hate the Virgin vs Chad meme. I used to find it funny, but it seems like it devolved into "Thing I like vs thing I don't like." and it just... annoys me. Many of the reasons for the "Virgin" side being inferior also tend to be quite weak (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Franchise/StarWars Rey is inferior to Ahsoka]] is that... she's human?[[note]] Although I would like to see a non-human protagonist [[/note]]) or stupid (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Film/CaptainMarvel Carol Danvers]] is inferior to [[Film/AlitaBattleAngel Alita]] is because... her gender was changed for no reason?[[note]] Carol Danvers was always a woman, although the mantle of Captain Marvel (which she's held for nearly ten years now) was originally held by a man, who was given a rather divisive [[spoiler:GenderFlip]] in the film in question[[/note]]) And then there's [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/438/423/415.png this one]]. Now, I love both WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower and WesternAnimation/{{Hilda}}, but this... is really stupid. I don't remember being [[CharacterShilling told why I should like]] Adora. Also, both shows are excellent, and I highly doubt that Creator/NDStevenson "cherry picks" critics, considering that's not how Website/RottenTomatoes works. Also, what I ''really'' hate is how this meme isn't comparing two shows or characters, it's comparing two RealLife people, (who I would honestly love to see collaborate on a graphic novel, but that's beside the point).
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: At one point in the ''Animated Anarchy'' video on ''WesternAnimation/FelixTheCatTheMovie'', a clip from the movie is shortened to make it sound like the man who would later become the Duke of Zill was banished from the Kingdom of Oriana just because he was disfigured in an accident and had to rebuild his body. The critic in the video then proceeds to call the people who banished him horrible people and says “No wonder he doesn't like you!” However, if the movie clip hadn't been edited, you would have heard that the future Duke wanted a powerful book that the people in charge of the Kingdom wouldn't let him have. I don't know if this is a deliberate case of ManipulativeEditing or if the critic somehow didn't know that the dialogue he cut out actually matters, but there you go.
* Tropers/SoaringEagle: I don't know who [=TheClooch=] is, but after watching his video "VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}: How to Kill a Video Game", I don't think I want to know more. Regardless of your opinion on the current state of Blizzard's latest, the bad balancing, and whether or not it deserves a sequel, to call the game "dead" is like calling Franchise/StarWars "dead"; neither is true, no matter how much the fandom complains about either. As far as I'm concerned, a game is only dead when there are less than 1,000 players, or the servers shut down. Oh! But the big reason why the video makes it on this page, in my opinion, is one line towards the end of the video, regarding when Overwatch "died": "It was dead on arrival." You heard it here, friends: a game that has almost 50 million players worldwide, made over $500 million in its first year alone, and won numerous awards since launch, was "dead on arrival". I've seen numerous users around the Internet trying to convince people that Overwatch is the worst game ever made, but this video has to be the worst case.
* Tropers/BigJimbo: Coming across a ''WebComic/GarfieldMinusGarfield'' reaction video by a [=YouTuber=] called "The Click", I found it funny initially... but then he reads one where Jon seems to vomit after breathing the air outside his house or something, and his reaction is "Corona." Say what you will about COVID-19 jokes, but I find the ones that either come across as "Get it? It's funny because COVID exists" or shoehorn in a mention extremely infuriating, and taking that out of the equation, how about people who are given anxiety by the very mention of the virus? This moment alienated me so much, I'd rather not watch another of these videos.
* Scsigs: Oof, am I probably gonna get heat for this entry if his stans find out about this entry here. Anyways, since this is the section for one-offs & actual people that make content online, my choice is Edwins Generation/Edwin Costa. This dude is a fucking trainwreck of a human being, from the fact that he lucked into being a commentary channel when he used his old roommate Cyr and Cyr's ex Dasha to exploit terrible things they've done (both deserving of backlash and not) to gain clout and bring hate to them, he defended a proven sexual predator by resurrecting a 5-year-old drama that'd been long since buried, and he's proven himself very [[CantTakeCriticism incapable of taking any form of legit criticism]], egotistical, HolierThanThou, IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance, and extremely hypocritical ever since he started covering Onision, which is what I'm going to talk about. In 2019, he started reacting to Onision's videos when he became a hot-button topic to talk about. Then, he befriended most of his victims and made it seem like he was actually affected by Creator/{{Shiloh}} like one of his now-friends was to put him on the same level as him by dragging Shiloh down like he did Cyr and Dasha. I'm in no way defending what Shiloh did at that time, but he clearly used it for clout gain when he could. Fast forward to early 2021 and he's suddenly on the Discovery+ Onision documentary ''Onision: In Real Life''. This is where it gets hysterical. So, he didn't tell ''anyone'' he was gonna be in it, not the victims (whom he's supposedly friends with), or his other commentary friends. In fact, he openly criticized it being made before and after he filmed his parts for it online. However, when screenshots leaked early of the first episode and showed he was in it, he immediately got questioned by everyone who said it was a ''very'' hypocritical move. He quickly claimed he "vetted the producers thoroughly" beforehand and told his commentary friends that he agreed to do it because he had the producers promise him he could "get a shot in at Chris Hansen." The documentary aired and his "shot" was a milktoast take about how Chris Hansen exploited the victims when he interviewed them for financial gain (which, Hansen's an investigative journalist and he's been doing that job for years because he got paid through it. How else is he going to make money?). Not only that, but he appeared in all of 6-7 minutes of the doc's first 3 episodes and the majority of his screentime was made up of explaining how Onision might've became popular so quickly over a decade ago on [=YouTube=], how [=YouTube's=] monetization program works, and the "shot", which Hansen then used as a way to do a TakeThat back at the commentary people who criticize him, as Edwin and his friends do, justifiably or not. The best part is that a stan of someone Edwin's repeatedly criticized in the past in some of his videos hacked into his Twitter account and screen recorded his [=DMs=] with a bunch of people. One set of which with Steven Asarch, one of the main producers and presenters of the docu series, when leaked revealed that he didn't vet him ''nearly'' as thoroughly as he said he did, nor did he actually get a promise to "Take a shot" at Hansen. He was genuinely lying and, when called out on it, couldn't take the backlash and deactivated his Twitter and took a break from the internet to try to let the backlash die down. So, tl;dr, I believe the Onision docu series is his dethroning moment, as he's shown to be a hypocrite because he neither likes Chris Hansen, nor did he avow the doc being made beforehand, a sellout because he clearly did it for clout, as he admitted he didn't get paid money to be in it and he was clearly expecting to be paid in exposure instead, and the fact that there's proof that he's willing to say what he thinks he needs to to make himself look like a victim in every place he can, as he claimed the producers purposely manipulated his footage to omit things, or cast things in different lights in the finished product and ''he'' was manipulated into being in the doc and said the things he said, he's clearly not the person he wants everyone to think he is and the backlash he's getting is well deserved.
* ''Tropers/{{Thepenguinking2}}'': Now, lemme preface this first: I am not a fan of Creator/ElectronicArts in the slightest. While I stood up for them in the past, I realize that they've done a lot of scummy stuff, more than even the average Triple A company (The ratings trickery in the mobile ''VideoGame/DungeonKeeper'' game, gutting multiple studios they've bought out, barely even giving ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesBattleForNeighborville'' a chance before cutting support, etc.). So, as to expect, [[https://youtu.be/CPBlnyM9IMc this video by Thomas Game Docs]] about EA stealing someone's game concept caught my interest. On top of all the horrible things they've done already, EA also committed plagarism? This sounds morbidly fascinating! But then it turned out the video was talking about ''Zuma''. A game developed by Creator/PopcapGames. While yes, Popcap is currently owned by EA (And after how horribly handled ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesHeroes'' and ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies 3'' were, I can't deny that they're basically using them as a flesh puppet at this point), Zuma was made years before EA took them over. This includes the sequel, and the DS port, which was released four months before Popcap was finally owned by EA. While the video does mention that Popcap was bought out by EA, it misinformedly states that the sequel was made during this time, which is just plain untrue, as I mentioned before. I don't entirely know if ''Zuma Blitz'' was made before or after the EA acquisition, but the video doesn't even mention it at any point, so that question doesn't matter. But hey! As long as you're mocking [[AcceptableTargets Electronic Arts]], rational thinking is just optional! This is my first time watching one of his videos, but after this miserably uninformed display, it's likely my last.
* ''Tropers/Siegfried1337'': While I still respect [=KonekoKitten=] for his commentary videos on ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'', one moment that almost pushed me to my RageBreakingPoint was that when he posted a video about "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j6Buy2ngB0 the truth about roblox bans...]]". In the video, Koneko talks about how some Roblox bans were absolutely justified since they were actually doing shady stuff and used Inspect Element to cover up the truth about some of their bans. That part gave me an absolute headache since I have seen most bans on Roblox be legitimate (and in case what you are wondering, yes, I have done my research on their accounts), so it really stood out that Koneko would say such a thing. Given how unpopular Roblox moderation is, and the fact that getting mistakenly banned is tragically common, and this basically nearly made him a massive BrokenPedestal to me, since this is a complete 180 from his well thought-out his videos were, seeing him do that made me less likely to continue supporting him if he continously holds this view. Trust me, when people do hot takes, at least most of them know how to get proof on how to make a good hot take, but this is not one of them.
* Levitator: WebVideo/CinemaWins used to be one of my favorite Youtube channels. It was a fresh breath of positivity in the noxious haze of [[CausticCritic Caustic Critics.]] I always felt like it was a channel for everyone to unite and defend the things the cruel internet hated. But then came his awful, awful video for {{Film/Elysium}}. I'll admit I didn't really like this movie that much, partly because I considered it to have an EsotericHappyEnding, but I'd seen the channel effectively defend movies I didn't like that much before and I enjoyed the alternate perspective, so I was looking forward to seeing it. But then the video consisted of constant bashing of capitalism, unfunny "eat the rich" jokes, and relentless EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory claims. Lee pretty much said that he considered the USA in 2021 to be a cyberpunk dystopia already. His closer segment, often the best part of his video, contained ignorant opinions about subjects such as food waste (restaurants and stores throw out food because of government regulation and the possibility of being sued!) that demonstrated Lee shouldn't be expressing opinions on such complex issues. He also suggested that his radical views shouldn't be considered a political issue, which only makes me wonder if he's even met a conservative. I'm not going to stop watching his videos because of this, but this is the first WebVideo/CinemaWins video to put me in a worse mood than when I started, and if that isn't a DMOS, I don't know what is.
* JHD0919: [[WebVideo/{{Animerica}} Animerica's]] "Top 25 Anime No One Should Ever Watch" was a hot mess. The "I'm right and you're wrong" attitude was prevalent throughout the video, but nowhere more so than his [[Anime/CodeGeass Code Geass R2]] segment. Will Ryan brings up how the season was upvoted higher than [[Anime/CowboyBebop Cowboy Bebop]] and [[Anime/SpiritedAway Spirited Away]] on Anime News Network, and then has the gall to ask the voters if they've lost their minds. Will. Buddy. It's okay if you hate R2, you're entitled to your opinion, but stop acting like it's an objectively bad show. What you did here is pass off your opinion on the show as if it was objective fact, and that anybody who disagrees with that "fact" (massive quotes there) is objectively wrong. This act was far from the only problem with the list, but it was the one that annoyed me the most.
* Asue: WebVideo/TotallyNotMark deserves a mention. His reviews, while not spectacular, are okay at best and inoffensive at worst. But there's something that needs to be adressed and that is his apparent obsession with ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'''s Episode 5 and its poor animation when it was first broadcast. If it was just mentionned in passing or even just a point of criticism when reviewing the show (and he did), it wouldn't be much of a problem. The issue is, he keeps bringing it up. A lot. And when someone criticized him for it, instead of considering it maybe a dead horse joke at this point, he smugly admitted that [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer he has the original broadcast of the episode saved and he loves to watch it]], completely dismissing the criticism at all. If he [[CantTakeCriticism can't take criticism]] for a friggin' overused joke, well, why would I listen to him? On a minor note, his "Every Difference In Dragon Ball Z Abridged" video feels like a waste of time, as it tells the [[CaptainObvious obvious (as if anyone would mistake any element of the parody for something from the orginal series)]].
* Tropers/Ordeaux26: I never thought that [[WebVideo/MLPAnalysis MisAnthro Pony]] was that amazing of a channel, but his review on ''Film/{{Cuties}}'' was what made me lose all respect for him. While I agree that the film is worthy of criticism and is quite a massive problem in many ways, but he took that criticism way too far. Specifically, the part where he shows comments from a bunch of people on Twitter and encourages his viewers to harass them and report them to get them banned, even going so far as to include links to various commenters and people who supported the film in the video description. He also wanted to shut down Netflix as a whole simply to the film and, in general, attacked anyone who liked the film, even if they weren't being bad.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: A Microsoft Sam-utilizing [=YouTuber=] named Sam da Vlogger used to call out immaturity in the [=GoAnimate=] community. However, I later found out that his online girlfriend caused him to act mean-spirited from mid-2019 to mid-2020, when he closed his [=YouTube=] account. This obviously explains the video that caused me to give up on his channel for the third time (that's right, I had two DMOS's before this one, but they were from before the aforementioned mean-spiritedness). In said video, he made mean comments to a [=YouTube=] user, who I think was named Some Person, who left a comment pretending to use [=GoAnimate=] logic to teleport to Dragonland. Sam was basically assuming that Some Person was an immature brat who doesn't "deserve to watch" ''WesternAnimation/DragonTales'' just because the person unironically referenced [=GoAnimate=] and had a ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' profile picture. To top it all off, he showed a screenshot of mean comments directed at Some Person, but in a way that endorsed them instead of calling them out like he probably would have from 2016 to mid-2019.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I think the group called Accuracy in Media has done good work, but I unsubscribed from their emails after one of their articles assumed the worst about ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed''. The logic of the article is as follows: because a film critic got in trouble for describing the movie as "horny", and because of the existence of sex scandals in Hollywood along with media that the article claims sexualizes children (one example the article gave was ''Film/{{Cuties}}'', which didn’t even originate from Hollywood, and no, the American marketing of the film was not referred to at all), then the aforementioned critic must have "said the quiet part out loud" and ''Turning Red'' must be bad for kids! Judging by this and their article on ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyANewGeneration'' ([[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch both of these articles got all their information on the movies in question from news sources that AIM might usually critique]]), I think Accuracy in Media should watch children's media first before deciding if it’s bad for kids.
* Tropers/RWBYraikou888: I used to really like WebVideo/MangaKamen's content, especially during his days in WebOriginal/TheCommentaryCommunity when he primarily used Skull Kamen. I was always invested in his ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' and ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' content, always got a kick out of him knocking the ivory off the towers of people like Verlisify, and while I am admittedly a fan of ''WebVideo/GameTheory'', I still enjoyed his content that ragged on it as sort of a balancing act. However, two events eventually made me realize he had become increasingly arrogant and antagonistic, and led me to [[BrokenPedestal outright unsubscribe from him]]. Firstly, his disdain towards ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}''. As soon as he first uploaded "What's Wrong with RWBY?!", I knew that his channel was [[ThisIsGonnaSuck about to take a dark turn]]. Now, him not being a fan of ''RWBY'' isn't a problem in its own right, as the show has a few blemishes that could be amended, but the way that the video was presented reigned eerily similar to the likes of Creator/LilyOrchard, who, last I checked, he had no respect for following her transition to more rant-based content. If it had been as simple as "Why RWBY Doesn't Do Enough For Me", I feel like it could have been more digestible, but the fact that he ended up hopping on the bandwagon of turning ''RWBY'' into the internet's second-biggest punching bag after ''Sonic'' made me realize how far gone he had been compared to his previous videos, where he delivered takedowns to people who deserved it. What made things even worse was a Reddit thread I found where he discussed with a ''RWBY'' fan that he keeps talking down on the show because he think there are an uneven amount of defenders and detractors weighing too hard on the side of defenders, but if the amount of influence spread by the likes of Vexed Viewer and Hero Hei are any indication, I think he's got it backwards. The fact that he hasn't stopped the ''RWBY'' backlash to this day only reinforces how I feel he's too arrogant to see reason. Second, and the thing that actually made me unsubscribe from him, is his unfriendly rivalry with [=TheMetalBlade5=]. Now, don't get me wrong, I feel as though Metal was just as in the wrong as him, and I also unsubscribed from his channel following his attempt at ranting on the ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind Golden Wind]]'' dub and subsequent calling out of [=RiverDude=] Covers, but everything that Kamen tried to deny about his distorting of Metal's attempt at reasonable discussion and adding fuel to the fire made me come to realize that Kamen holds a perpetual NeverMyFault attitude, and after removing his jokes of Skull Kamen being a perpetual ButtMonkey for his attempts at naysaying, it made me find out just how egotistical he could get. The fact that I used to be a fan of both Kamen and Metal made me feel bummed out that the two could never see reason, as it meant that Metal would have his image at the time sullied further, while Kamen descended more and more into self-importance and couldn't be reached out to. In the end, I felt as though [=MangaKamen=] was a breath of fresh air in the vitriolic world of [=YouTube=] commentaries, but ultimately [[HeWhoFightsMonsters became the thing he was initially subverting]].
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I stumbled across [=FoxAkimbo=]'s video "[=YouTube=]'s DISGUSTING Terminated Channels...", and I found that when he briefly talks about [=OfficerPoop247=], he acts as if any content involving Caillou deserves to be taken down, while neglecting, or perhaps not knowing, to explain how [=GoAnimate=] Caillou videos are different or even the real reason why that account got terminated. To that I say, "Well, that was unprofessional!"
* Tropers/Amber72004: I was on the Mondo Media website when I spotted The 80s movies Made Today video from Like, Share, Die. Most of the segments of the video are fine, Like the ET part, But it got to the A Christmas Story segment, Where Ralph gets shot by the police, Really? He didn't do anything but got a rifle for Christmas A police wouldn't even a shoot a kid if they have a gun, In the original movie, He shot his glasses out by accident, In here, He gets shot by the police, Any police wouldn't even shoot a kid unless if it was the parent, And also, the movie is set in the 1950s, not the 1980s, so it was a bit of critical research failure that the series had. If crosses the line twice, then I don't know what is.
* Tropers/Amber72004: [[https://youtu.be/yfnuu4TtlZI this video about the documentary of South Park]] by Italian Youtuber Apocaloso, The most of the video is fine, but when he said that animation is genre, which something that [[FandomEnragingMisconception makes animation fans angry]]. Animation is a medium, not a genre, The medium itself predates film and it's one of the most intensely popular mediums as comics and literature, The YouTuber himself needs to some more research when he makes his videos next time.
* Tropers/Amber72004 [[https://hecknopoohsadventures.tumblr.com/post/80103838421/ok-can-we-please-talk-about-this-jerk-the This post from an anti-Pooh's Adventures Tumblr blog]] is just badly-written about a user on Deviantart, The users puts hyphens on words such as ''sick f**k'' and ''High time'' and misspelled the word ''Quality'' and he uses all-caps on his post as well, This just come as very unprofessional at best and poorly-written at worst.
* Tropers/MelancholyUtopia: I'm indifferent towards ''WebVideo/TheWarpZone'' for the most part: they have some semi-funny sketches (as most of them, in my opinion, have jokes that are too generic, unoriginal or just extremely dated as fans already made the same jokes ages ago) in their "If X had Y" type videos, and I like the accurate voice acting of the game characters. That said, one time made me sigh in disappointment, and that was in their "IF POKÉMON HAD FACEBOOK" video. In one of the sketches, in response to Giovanni arguing intelligent design over evolution, Misty replies with "Nobody intelligently designed ''these'' guys". and showed pictures of Garbodor, Rotom and Klefki. Then Klefki writes a post and says "I'm Keys!!" Haa-haa. Two of those made me cringe as they are just reiterating the same boring, old observation that "these pokémon are just objects and it's ridiculous!!!" Never mind the fact that Garbodor is supposed to be an embodiment representative of the pollution/trash problem in New York City, a place the Unova region is based on. An even worse offender in this case is Klefki, however, as if you bothered to do even a modicum of research is based on the pagan belief that fairies are to blame for small objects, such as keys, going missing, hence why it's a fairy-type, and which I personally considered kind of a crafty way to reinforce the unique "steel/fairy" type combo. Also, in Japan, there's an old mythos that carrying a specific iron charm will ward off those types mischievous creatures, again alluding fairy and steel together. Furthermore its name is a take on the French word clef, which means key. Yet the guys who wrote these sketches have the gall to say they weren't "intelligently designed". Look, it's perfectly okay if you don't like their designs, but it's plain dishonest and objectively wrong to say no thought was put behind their aesthetic. Another thing, has there ever been some kind of invisible rule in some official Pokémon rulebook that says Pokémon can't be based on objects? Not that I can recall, since the Magnemite, Voltorb and Grimer evolution lines (from Gen I) exist.
* Tropers/Amber72004, I was watching LS Mark's video on Shut Up Cartoons when he shows black and white clips of people crying and that's he uses the annoying baby crying sound effect in the background, The sound effect was very annoying, so I skipped it. Why would you add a baby crying sound effect in background with footage of adults crying? That's like using a child crying sound effect used in background with footage of old people crying, That is just annoying that this baby crying sound is used in the video.

* Trialman: I used to enjoy the Randomizer Nuzlockes done by [=MrShawnTRods=], until he did one with [[VideoGame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon Ultra Sun]]. Specifically, it was on episode 6 or 8, I can't be bothered checking, where he had a shiny Froakie. He eventually got the Froakie to evolve, and due to the randomizer, it became a Chatot. His immediate reaction was to release it, making it dead. His reasoning being that Chatot is weak. Firstly, I really disliked this, as it defies the message that the Pokemon series itself has, about not judging just on strength. Secondly, it defies part of the appeal of a Nuzlocke in the first place, being that you need to take what you get, no matter how strong or weak it is. And thirdly, it was the culmination of my big problem with the whole playthrough up to that point, that he was being far too negative. He constantly claimed he would try to be positive, while yelling at the game for completely trivial reasons, and this moment was what fully cemented his extreme negativity. Well, since he had that release knee-jerk reaction, I decided my knee-jerk reaction will be a dislike, and a click on the "unsubscribe" button.
* {{Tropers/ScarletNebula}} Okay so i usually liked Infamous Sphere's Infamous Queer video series, they're usually pretty alright. Not so much her review of ''Film/TheGrandBudapestHotel'' however, now she discovered she doesn't actually like the movie anymore, fair enough, but throughout the video i feel like it's just completely morose and depressing for no real reason. Like i can see why reviewers make video funny, cause otherwise the video is miserable and that's what this review was, miserable. You're reviewing a quirky Wes Anderson movie! Lighten up! Needless to say i stopped watching her videos cause it's not worth it if it's just gonna make me depressed.
* {{Tropers/HaileySawyer101}} This Dethroning Moment of Suck comes from JHall's Pokemon Sun Playthrough comic series. Since this series doesn't have its own section, I figured it would be appropriate to post this in the "OTHER" folder. Get up and grab a snack because I have quite a bit to say. Now I'll be honest. I actually do like this series and I look forward to reading new episodes every Thursday. It addresses various issues with Sun and Moon, such as the long wait to get your starter at the beginning of the game due to excessive dialogue, and at times, pokes fun at them. I also like some of Jhall's Pokemon, with my favorite being Mr. Snuggles, especially when he evolves into a talking Incinaroar that's a calm intelligent 'mon who can turn into a raging wrestler at a moment's notice. Hell, at times, it can even get a little emotional. Despite my love for the series, I'll admit that at times it can fall flat on its face in big and small ways. I think one of the most prominent examples of this for me is in episode 83. So in this episode, Jhall is visiting the Vast Poni Canyon and his Charjabug named Chompers is evolving because of the magnetic field in the area. When it evolves into Vikavolt, it's revealed by the Rotom Dex that Chompers' physical defense lowers when it evolves and Jhall says, "Right. Of course. Did God make this region as a prank or something?" Now what's wrong with this episode you may ask? Well let's take this one step at a time. So the plot of the episode is just one joke about how Charjabug's defense is lower when it evolves and because of this, its evolved form Vikavolt faints when it gets hit by a tiny rock and when Jhall finds out about the lowered defense thing he gets angry and rants about it for a bit. And that's it. That's all you get from that episode. There is a bit at the beginning of episode 84 where Jhall tells Chompers not to get hit and Chompers gets hit but it still isn't all that much. Now I wouldn't have much of a problem with this but the joke feels rather lackluster, as it doesn't seem fleshed out enough to have any sort of real punch. Now here are some interesting facts about Charjabug and Vikavolt. While it's true that Vikavolt's physical defense is lower than Charjabug's, it isn't anything to be too worried about. According to Bulbapedia, [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Charjabug's physical defense]] is 95 while [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Vikavolt_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Vikavolt's]] is only 90. So right here we're only looking at a five point difference, which really isn't all that drastic if you ask me. Also, at level 49, Charjabug is able to learn [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#By_leveling_up Iron Defense]], which boosts physical defense by two whole stages, making the whole "lowered physical defense upon evolution" thing a non-issue. So why I'm I bringing up this information? Well because I feel like Jhall could've used some of it to make the Charjabug/Vikavolt joke work better. In the series, Jhall's Charjabug is capable of being a beast in battle, as seen in episode 47. For the Pokemon who require being in an area with a magnetic field, such as Vast Poni Canyon, to evolve like Charjabug for example, they need to level up in that area first to trigger the evolution. So here's what I had in mind. At the beginning of the episode, we see a battle where Chompers uses Acrobatics or one of its other moves like Spark or Crunch to take out a wild or trainer owned Pokemon in one hit. Now while the levels of Jhall's Pokemon aren't mentioned in most of the series, I'll assume that Chompers is at level 48 due to the fact that Jhall is at Vast Poni Canyon, which you visit towards the end of Sun and Moon before you face the Elite Four. After Chompers wins, Jhall's Rotom Dex informs him that Chompers grew to level 49 and that it can learn Iron Defense, which boosts physical defense by two whole stages. The Rotom Dex asks Jhall if he'd like to replace one of Chomper's moves to allow it to learn Iron Defense. Jhall then arrogantly rejects the offer. The Rotom Dex says, "Are you sure? Its physical defense is going to be lowered by five points when it evolves. It also keeps its weakness to Rock type moves as well." Once again, Jhall rejects the offer and says that Chompers is perfect the way he is. When Chompers evolves, Jhall is very excited to the point where he's bouncing off of the walls of the panel or panels and says, "Yeah! No one can beat him now!" Then, Chompers is suddenly hit by a rock and gets taken down easily. Then, Jhall gets angry and says, "Did God make this region as a prank or something?" to which the Rotom Dex calmly replies, "No. You're just an idiot." Jhall's anger then intensifies to the point where he tries to hurt the Rotom Dex. Also, it could just be me but I feel like Jhall only looked at the base stats for Charjabug and Vikavolt and just made the episode without doing any additional research. As a result, the joke also feels rather rushed and lazy. It's a shame too because I know this series is capable of being really damn funny and putting more time and effort into its jokes.
* Tropers/CaptainTedium: I usually like blameitonjorge's videos, but the video "6 Surprisingly Dark Adaptations of Kid-Friendly Media" had one entry that rubbed me the wrong way. Said entry was the one for ''VideoGame/BombermanActZero''. I understand that the game is one of the most reviled DarkerAndEdgier reboots ever, and I can't really say that I am interested in it, but what I take issue with is how the entry made the hasty generalization that all DarkerAndEdgier reinventions of kids' media are crap and gave more emphasis on ''Act Zero'' being a shitty reboot than on how significantly darker it was than the original ''VideoGame/{{Bomberman}}'', when the whole point of the countdown was to list adaptations of media aimed at children that were unexpectedly darker than the original work, not to kvetch about dark adaptations that are considered inferior to the source material. Heck, it's clear that blameitonjorge didn't check for consistency, as the entries were narrated by different people and the same list had [[SamuraiJack/TropesSeason5 the 2017 revival]] of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'' that aired on Creator/AdultSwim, which actually acknowledged that it was well-received in addition to explaining how it was darker than the original Creator/CartoonNetwork run. The video hasn't made me give up on checking out blameitonjorge's videos, but I really hope that next time he makes sure that the videos' entries aren't narrated by people who miss the point of the video.
* Tropers/{{Keyblade333}}: I used to really enjoy ''Franchise/DragonBall'' youtuber [=AnimeAjay=] due to his breakdowns of various episodes within the franchises in terms of animation, and the production behind them. However what ultimately made me cross into disliking him was his reaction to ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'' episode 71's English dub, where he absolutely lost his shit on twitter about Hit saying: "[[AscendedMeme Time to make the Doughnuts]]". While YMMV on the ''Super'' dub, the sheer levels of anger he displayed towards the dub and community for disagreeing with him was enough to make me unsub and unfollow on twitter, especially when he became a {{Hypocrite}} and called people out for being toxic, but was being toxic himself to people who disagreed with him. His negative attitude also caused his blind fans to actually target the voice actors in involved as well. Even though many other youtubers in the community called him out on his behavior, he refused to apologize, even attacking other content creators over it.
* Tropers/CJCroen1393: Turkey Tom is already fairly controversial, but his video on WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter's [=IndieGogo=] campaign ''really'' qualifies for one simple reason: He briefly accuses Mr. Enter of being a pedophile. Oh I'm sorry, did I say "briefly"? I meant "repeatedly" and "at least five or six times", to the point that after a while, [[PaedoHunt it doesn't even sound like a joke anymore]], it sounds like Turkey Tom ''actually believes'' that Mr. Enter is a pedophile. What's his evidence? That he wanted to make a cartoon about children and has written "atrocious books" (that TT [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch admitted to not actually reading]]) told from the perspective of children. As Mr. Enter himself ends up pointing out in a response video he made, by that logic ''everyone who has ever made a children's cartoon'' should be considered a pedophile. I get that he's a ranting commentator and that sometimes, that job involves some insults, but this is just taking things way too far.
** Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I remember another unnecessary insult made by Turkey Tom, and he even acknowledged that it was unnecessary! In his video where he reads some user comments from his "The Problems with Anime" video, he at one point responds to a user who made an immature comment that said something like "Fuck you, anime is awesome." But when Turkey Tom points out that said user has a profile picture from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', he says something like "[[FanHater Real mature! Really shows how much of a stupid baby you are!]] [[{{Hypocrite}} But I don't know you, so I can't make that assumption.]]" If Turkey Tom knew that he shouldn't make assumptions like that, why did he insult that other user in that way in the first place? So basically, this moment can be summed up by Mr. Enter's catchphrase: "What I'm doing is wrong, I know it's wrong, but I'm gonna do it anyway!"
* LampreyKurage: So, about gillythekid; he isn't bad, but I wouldn't call him good. But one part of his ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' Flash Games video stuck out to me, and not in a good way. Near the end, he talks about how he learned that some of the games he played in past Flash Games were made using Scratch, which is a program for schools that teaches kids how to make flash games. Since it's for kids, it does have limited features, which is one of his prime complaints for it. I could tolerate that...but then at the very end he started insulting a fanmade Zelda game made on Scratch (with admittedly below average controls, but still). Not only does he not understand that the features are limited so Scratch is easily accessible to kids, he's essentially badmouthing a child who could've potentially wanted to be good at programming and damaging their self-esteem by insulting it and not giving them any constructive criticism.
* Tropers/BattleMaster: I've enjoyed reading Website/NotAlwaysRight for years, but recently there was a story about a woman at a pet grooming service having a freakout over being charged $3 more than she was expecting. [[spoiler: We're suddenly told that the OP later found out that the woman killed her dogs and was arrested]] with no warning. Many readers were understandably upset about this and said that especially given that Not Always Right is typically a family-friendly humor site, a trigger warning would have been appropriate. Two days later, a story was published with a title that mocked trigger warnings. Not cool at all.
* Tropers/DukeNukem4ever: ''Ruby Rose [=VS=] Ragna the Bloodedge'' Death Battle Exhibition is a true mess from start to end (what was with [[spoiler: Ruby using almost every signature move of hers and thus winning the fight and Ragna dying for not using any special attacks of his?]]) But no, the main problem is the episode starting with a teaser for the future [=RWBY=] episodes. After seeing this advertisement I immediately knew who would win this battle. [[spoiler: And I was completely right, because Screwattack and Rooster Teeth care so much about their franchise that they are willing to let its [[CreatorsPet characters]] completely obliterate their enemies in Death Battle, One Minute Melee and Death Battle Exhibition (granted, Weiss eventually losing in one Death Battle episode downplays this a bit, but my point still stands.]]
** Tropers/SavageSamurai: I agree but for slightly different reasons. [[spoiler: The main problem is that it's a gigantic advertisement for RWBY. If you're watching the Website/YouTube release, there is even an ad for RWBY Volume 6. However, anyone who's read the description notes that it's a battle between two scythe wielders. Ragna uses his scythe two times and it isn't even apparent that he's used it. I had to actually pause the video several times to even realise he'd used it. Now I don't care that it was biased; to an extent every DBX is biased because the victor is usually determined by the animator anyway. I don't care that it was an ad by Creator/RoosterTeeth. OK that's a lie, I do care but it doesn't mean much in the long run so I can forgive it. I mean if you have the means to promote it, then by all means promote it. However, the thing that gets me is that there was a much better person they could've used to fight Ragna, promote the show and and actually make the fight more interesting and make sense; Qrow Branwen. His Semblance is [[WindsOfDestinyChange inflicting bad luck]] so an argument could be made that he actually could beat Ragna. They're both CosmicPlaythings and use [[ShapeshifterWeapon weapons that are primarily swords but can shapeshift into scythes if the wielder wants]]. For all intents and purposes the description essentially lies and the match would've been much more interesting had Ruby been replaced by her uncle]].
* Tropers/{{chucknormie}}: I didn't like the ''WebVideo/YouTube'' ''Rewind 2018'' for many reasons, but I can at least tolerate or understand why they did those things. The most popular [=YouTubers=] like LetsPlay/PewDiePie, Creator/ShaneDawson, WebVideo/IDubbbzTV, WebVideo/FouseyTube, WebVideo/RiceGum, Creator/TanaMongeau, and everyone ever associated with Team 10 being left out and replaced with a cast of no-names (excluding Creator/CaseyNeistat and Creator/LillySingh)? Defensible. The wooden acting and cringey dialogue? Defensible. "Old media" celebrities like Creator/WillSmith hogging the spotlight? Defensible. What I couldn't defend, however, was the moment in the middle of the video when the [=YouTubers=] take a break from recapping viral trends of 2018 to pat themselves on the back for "having the bravery" to talk about controversial topics like mental illness or LGBT issues. The problem is that [=YouTube=] is notorious for demonetizing videos that discuss those topics and many more deemed "controversial" because they don't consider it to be advertiser friendly, which makes this line completely hypocritical and insulting to every creator who's actually tried to have a frank discussion on these topics and ended up being unable to earn money from their videos because of it. This particular segment made me realize there's a steep gap in how [=YouTube=] executives believe the site to be and how it actually is.
* Tropers/IzzyUneasy: So, here I am, wanderin' on Fanbyte, havin' the time of my life. I got alarmed when they separated characters into tiers(i hate tiers), but then I saw that they called Yoshi a tax evader... and my heart dropped down my gut. Enough said.
* Tropers/Metalhead14: I love WebOriginal/ScareTheater to death, but his "Desmond Is Amazing" video could have been handled a ''lot'' better, and hundreds of his other fans think so too. I get that he had good intentions, but the way he words everything is just ''awful'' and makes him seem incredibly dismissive of everything. He seemed way too easy on everyone involved; I'm not sure if he rushed this one out or was afraid of being politically incorrect, but he's usually better than this and this video didn't make him look very good. Desmond's situation is a '''very''' serious matter, and Scare didn't handle it properly. Thankfully, he's gotten back on his feet since, but that video really does deserve all the outrage it's gotten.
* Thefreepup: I'll admit, while I admire fellow deviantartist Cartuneslover16 for her ability to replicate any cartoon's style, there was one moment in particular that has soured my view on her. It was when she uploaded a picture honoring her late mom's birthday. The picture did a good job at creating such a heartwarming moment, up until I read the part of the description where she mentioned that the reason she added WesternAnimation/UncleGrandpa to the pic was because it renewed her faith in Cartoon Network while trash talking WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo While I can understand and respect her dislike for the show (even if I find it [[SoOkayItsAverage okay overall]]), I do not like how she chose to bring it up in a deviation that is meant to be a touching commemoration for someone who's passed away. It just makes her come across as a petty, whiny brat, which she most certainly isn't. This, combined with how I feel that she has gotten too brash and bitchy towards things she dislikes, has given me a reason to no longer be a fan of her or her work. I'm sorry, Cartuneslover16, but consider this goodbye for now.
* Tropers/{{distantsun}}: WebVideo/LordKaT's comment about Creator/TerryPratchett's "brain degenerating into mush" in his 10 Hardest Adventure Games video, in light of Pratchett's diagnosis with Alzheimer's, was at best an astoundingly bad accidental choice of words and at worst an unfunny, offensive attempt at a joke. I know a lot of LK's humor is on the dark, controversial side, and usually I can appreciate it, but this seriously crossed a line for the sake of an offhand comment that wasn't even particularly amusing even if you're not offended by it.
* Tropers/SickBritKid: While I normally like WebVideo/{{Benzaie}} and his charming, snarky French attitude, his video "TOP 5: Why ''Zelda Twilight Princess'' SUCKS" was just downright stupid (it was nothing but petty nitpicks that were used against the game a full five years ago when it came out), ignorant ([[{{Hypocrite}} really, Benzaie? You're gonna rail against ''Twilight Princess'' for having items that aren't used outside of the dungeons you acquire them in... Even though that showed up in ''Ocarina of Time'', which you shill on endlessly? Or you're gonna bitch about the final item being another Clawshot and how much that sucks... despite the longshot from Ocarina of Time basically just being a longer hookshot]]? Oh, and you're also gonna rail on the game's graphics, completely ignoring the fact that it was made for the UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube and then ported to the UsefulNotes/{{Wii}}?), and just came off like he was trying to bait fans of ''Twilight Princess'' into flaming him and get a whole bunch of views by either the TP fans who came to debate and/or flame him and the TP haters who came to defend his points of view. All in all, it was one of the worst game reviews since X-Play's ''Your Childhood Sucked: Final Fantasy 7''.
* fluffything: Normally, I like ''WebVideo/WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou'' and I find Nash (and Tara) to be pretty funny. But, good gods of bacon do I have a problem with the ending of the ''Regret At Leisure'' episode. Three words: [[FanHater Arlo's Pony Paradise]]. This isn't a good-natured joke at the series itself. No, it's a mean-spirited TakeThat towards the fandom. It basically boils down to "Bronies (and Pegasisters) are stupid for taking a cartoon geared towards little girls seriously!". And, yes, that is Nash's actual opinion on the fandom. Look, if you don't like a show, fine. But being a total dick towards a fandom you don't like. Just because they like to discuss the mythos and everything in a serious and mature discussion doesn't make them stupid.
* GGGG: ''Weekly Manga Recap'' from the 4th of September 2012, previously titled "[[Manga/{{Naruto}} Tobi is]] [[spoiler:Obito]]!" This was just after the non-legal scans hit the web and the massive title was spread across the TGWTG banner in huge lettering, meaning anybody who followed the ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' manga legally (from ''Magazine/ShonenJump'', etc.) or was following the anime had the big reveal spoiled. They were nice enough to change it later to "Tobi is...!" It felt like they were punishing the ''Naruto'' fandom who wanted to receive the story in a legitimate way.
* Tropers/InvaderWeezle: Oh, WebVideo/ChrisStuckmann, it's a shame that I want to leave an entry for this guy. I've always considered him to be my favorite movie reviewer on Website/YouTube, being in that perfect middle ground where he's just a regular guy enjoying movies but then also trying to gain a greater understanding for the medium. But at some point it feels like he's changed to where he has acts more superior to others than he did before, and that's especially apparent in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GamrRXyIUs Analyzed review]] of ''Film/RogueOne''. First off, he had already done [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxWFm5kUBGk two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZHrFZuKYk8 reviews]] of ''Rogue One'', plus he co-starred in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pyzs1MPMXB4 Nostalgia Critic's review]] where, despite following a script meant for comedy, he still presents his same unironic opinions that he presented in his reviews. Since these three videos all came out in December 2016 right around when the movie came out and the Analyzed review came out three months later, it would be fine if he had significantly changed his opinions or had some new perspective on the film, but he doesn't. His opinions are exactly the same as the three other videos he shared them in, and his perspectives are the same as any other think piece criticizing ''Rogue One''. But this isn't about his opinions on the movie, this is about his attitude in his Analyzed video. This video served no purpose but to call out the fans on liking the movie. The way he presented his criticisms in his other reviews was in a reasonably respectable "I felt like these things were weak, I thought these things didn't work, etc." attitude. But in the Analyzed review, his tone is incredibly condescending and passive aggressive to fans of the film, in a more "Stop defending this thing, I'm going to tell you why you're wrong" attitude. He paraphrases common defenses for the film in an indisputably mocking tone, and he blatantly says that you would only really like ''Rogue One'' if you're simple-minded when it comes to ''Star Wars ''and you don't appreciate the "deep" aspects like he does. Which leads into the absolute worst part of this video: everything to do with his "Phantom Menacing" term, which he says is when people are in denial that a movie disappointed them. He's mentioned Phantom Menacing before, but I brushed it off at the time because I won't pretend it doesn't sometimes happen where your own hype can get you to enjoy something a lot more on the first experience than you will in subsequent times. In this video however, it really pissed me off because he's using this to belittle fans of things he doesn't like. He boldly asks "Are people Phantom Menacing ''Rogue One''?" It's like he can't accept that he's in the minority opinion on something, so he just assumes that everyone else is in denial and he's the correct one in all of this, and eventually everyone will come to their senses and agree with him. And combined with his aforementioned comment about how you would only like ''Rogue One'' if all ''Franchise/StarWars'' is to you is "Lol Excitement Action Visuals Fighting Explosions!", it's pretty clear that he doesn't think highly of the intelligence of ''Rogue One'' fans. For that matter, this whole Phantom Menacing thing is insulting to ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' fans. Chris acts like everyone came to their senses and decided Phantom Menace is bad, and there certainly were fans that changed their mind on the movie, but the movie still to this day has plenty of fans who unironically like and defend it. Are they just still in denial after 18 years? Attitudes like Chris's do nothing but try to discredit perspectives. Another Troper included Creator/DougWalker's Disneycember video on ''The Phantom Menace'' on this page for how Doug acts like fans are in denial and are too dumb to realize the movie is bad, and it's the same thing with Chris' video. Just an all-around insulting video that served no purpose but to tell people how dumb they are and how them praising something upsets him, and Chris should probably check his ego.
* Tropers/MagnusForce: I like ''WebVideo/TREYTheExplainer'' and think his videos are excellently researched. However, when watching his "Top 13 Most Inaccurate Fossil Reconstructions", his bonus example made me {{facepalm}}. He presents us with a reconstruction of a winged ankylosaur called ''Aeolosaurus'' and goes on a sort of mini-rant about how ridiculous it is. The problem is that he took the illustration completely out of context without double-checking it - something I immediately realized because the same image also had a dinosaur called ''[[Film/TheBeastFromTwentyThousandFathoms Rhedosaurus]]'' (which he completely glossed over). With a simple reverse image source, I traced the same pic to [[https://chasmosaurs.blogspot.com/2013/09/vintage-dinosaur-art-be-dinosaur.html a children's book]] that asked young readers to identify two fake dinosaurs in a group of real species, with ''Aeolosaurus'' and ''Rhedosaurus'' being the answers. In other words, that winged ankylosaur was never meant to be taken seriously! He was fooled by a children's quiz that had deliberately invoked ArtisticLicensePalaeontology to make a point! Even worse is that he has discussed kaiju before, so you think he would have been tipped off by the inclusion of ''Rhedosaurus'' (aka the monster that inspired Godzilla!) and realized the pic was purely facetious! For a guy like him, whose videos are all about meticulous research and promoting scientific accuracy, that's a mistake so stupid it's embarrassing.
* Tropers/AwesomeReesee: To be very clear, I hate the reception family wikis, however the atrocious youtubers wiki article titled Angry Mice Lovers Attack Mouse Channel really rubs me the wrong way. Mainly due to literal defense of [[CruellaToAnimals animal cruelty]]. The article [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer literally]] begins with a description of mice and saying that they’re atrocious because they crap on kitchen counters. They then said that they were defending mice for no reason. Again, seriously. Even though the person who uploaded the video was of him setting up a glue trap which he manages to catch 7 mice in the glue trap. He gives them a little ride, and then throws them in the trash. They then said [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman it was okay because they were vermin]]. They also accused the comments of being from [[AnimalWrongsGroup PETA]], yeah, as if [[SarcasmMode all animal rights supporters support PETA]] and not only that they are pretty much hypocrites because of criticizing Peluchin Entertainmen despite him doing the same thing to cats as one commentator said: Why? The animals are being tortured. Any well-rounded, sane human being is going to have a problem with that, regardless of what animal it is. He got a negative vote as a result
** Tropers/SuperSonicAndMario2: The article has thankfully been deleted. It was crap anyway.
** Tropers/MisterToodleoo: One time when I couldn’t remember the word “Miraheze” and was therefore Googling the new Closing Logos Wiki, I stumbled across the Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki, which is a wiki from the group mentioned above. At first, it was interesting to read about the toxicity, even though I noticed an attitude that I don’t like, which I will explain shortly. The Dethroning Moment was when I found that they have an entire page (which I don’t plan on reading) about not one, but two insults that they despise. The first one refers to a certain disease that happens to also be a Dutch curse word, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the people behind the wiki don’t know that. The second one, however, refers to my mental condition (take a guess what it is; it’s often associated with socially awkward geniuses). The reason I’m typing this is because I feel that if too much negative attention is drawn to “improper” use of the latter word, people will be afraid to make metaphors, positive or negative, about it. It would also cause people like me to have OCD thoughts that involve the words in question constantly popping into their heads. (By the way, I had a positive experience involving the word that describes me, but I won’t type it here.) So, in conclusion, I stumbled across a wiki, started reading it, found my BerserkButton and left the site! It’s as simple as that!
* Tropers/{{Nightfurywitch}}: I like WebVideo/RalphTheMoviemaker. I really do. His ''Series/MysteryDiners'' video, his ''Wish Upon'' video and tons others are great! But...I can’t watch his ''Film/FantasticFour2015'' review. Why? It feels like he just wants to hate on kids. It’s about 2-3 minutes straight of it, with no hint he’s joking.
* Tropers/MetalAiAi: [=PatMac=]'s video on [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic Bootlegs]] starts off perfectly fine, then at the 6 minute mark he suddenly makes a quip about how factories would still be producing a line of cheap figures after the death of the universe and erasure of mankind. Here's the problem: I was close to shaking off an existential crisis when I was watching, expecting an entertaining video, only for that cheap joke to make me lose all motivation and even made me consider becoming a LazyBum for the rest of my life because everything would be pointless in the end. Fortunately, I was able to snap myself out of this funk, [[FridgeHorror but what if someone who was suffering from depression wanted to watch the video to cheer themselves up? There's no indication that the video will have a joke like that.]] What I'm trying to say here is that the ultimate fate of life and the universe can be an extremely sensitive subject, because it is a common reason for suicide.
* Tropers/MightyMewtron: I really did enjoy Shady Doorags at least casually, since his channel is the main place to get fairly-consistent analysis on shows like ''WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman.'' However, I'm very uncomfortable after watching his take on ''WesternAnimation/TucaAndBertie,'' titled [[SympathyForTheDevil "Empathy for Your Enemies."]] Many commenters rightfully called Shady out on his take, which calls out the show for portraying Dirk and Pastry Pete as villains without considering their perspective. The video just reeks of both a major misunderstanding of both ''Tuca'' and ''[=BoJack=]'' as well as major uncomfortable implications regarding sexual harassment. Shady seems convinced that the show needs to explore the motivations of sexual harassers and explains that these characters may not have realized they were doing wrong, as if commenting about a coworker's breasts when you're not their friend or holding your employee's head over a boiling pot is an easy mistake anybody could make. He brings up ''[=BoJack=]'''s sympathetic portrayal of immoral characters as a standard for ''Tuca'' to reach, despite ''Tuca'' being [[LighterAndSofter more cartoony and cathartic of a show]] than ''[=BoJack=]'', not to mention that the latter show makes it very clear that the main character's behavior should not be dismissed just because of his FreudianExcuse, and the last ''[=BoJack=]'' season released before this video- which Shady had talked about!- practically revolved around that point. Additionally, Shady seemed to misrepresent some of these situations to prove his point. He says that Bertie's reactions weren't justified because some women might like the things these men were doing...despite the fact that Bertie did have a distressed sexual arousal to Pete's harassment, and it was only after seeing another girl harassed the same way did she realize her mistake. That was the clip with which he opened the video! And he completely glosses over Bertie's [[spoiler:RapeAsBackstory]] which informs a lot of her behavior in these situations, which ironically neglects Bertie's perspective in a video about seeing all perspectives. [[DoubleStandard He also never defends or even mentions Tallulah, a female antagonist,]] making the video less about "empathy for enemies" and more about "empathy for sexual harassers." Overall an extremely uncomfortable video full of UsefulNotes/VictimBlaming where he all but says that he can't relate to this show because he's a man, acting offended that, in the [[Series/MadMen sea of famous shows]] [[Series/BreakingBad with less-than-moral men]] [[Series/TheSopranos as protagonists,]] this show [[CatharsisFactor doesn't expect women to forgive their abusers.]] It's a perspective that taints his ''[=BoJack=]'' videos for me as well, sadly enough.
* Tropers/FalconPain: On the subject of ''Literature/SailorNothing'', there are a number of things I find it hard to stand in a work. Two of them are {{Author Tract}}s that go against my principles and characters behaving illogically in order to make the plot happen. So I had a real problem with the movie theater scene, a scene that is largely irrelevant to the plot in which a working adult refuses to sell his product to an interested consumer simply because she is unpopular at his child's school, leading to a speech in favor of illegal downloading.
* Tropers/Connor2107: During MerkDEnglish's playthrough of ''VideoGame/LifeIsStrange'', Mark makes no effort to hide his dislike for the game, in particular Chloe. He also makes several edgy remarks throughout his gameplay, none of which really bothered me... until near the end of the first episode, where Chloe reveals to Max that Nathan drugged her before the events of the game. Mark mistakenly believes that Chloe was raped by Nathan and says she got what she deserved for trying to scam him. I don't care who someone is or what they've done, saying they deserved to get raped for it is absolutely disgusting.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: In Ottomagic Critic’s commentary on Logomax’s commentary on [[Website/GoAnimate Brendan Barney]]’s harsh message to The Previews Guy, Ottomagic Critic brings up the fact that The Previews Guy has raged in allcaps when correcting people on movie release information. So, what’s the next negative thing he says about The Previews Guy? It’s that he “uploads fucking [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Barney]] VHS openings”. Hold it right there! The Previews Guy has that username because he uploads all kinds of VHS and DVD openings, not just Barney ones. So, since when is associating with anything to do with Barney considered a crime against maturity? Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if Ottomagic Critic [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch hasn’t even watched Barney]]! This is where I gave up on even skimming through this video.
* Tropers/{{Exxolon}}: While ''WebVideo/EpicRapBattlesOfHistory'' is pretty much critic proof there is one moment that while not outright sucking was definitely a disappointment. After Boba Fett's brief cameo in the Hitler vs Vader 3 battle his actual battle vs Deadpool while not bad didn't live up to the high energy style showcased there with a slower and more measured delivery in a lower pitched voice. I was looking forward to Fett rapid firing zingers and got fairly pedestrian verses instead.
** [=InTheGallbladder=]: I gave up around "Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump." Nothing to do with my personal views--the breaking point came with the "surprise" return of Abraham Lincoln Riding A Bald Eagle, a twist so obvious I'm not even bothering to spoiler it. There's just no way in hell for three white rappers to set up a rhyme with "riggers" [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt that didn't foreshadow a]] CurseCutShort from three [[PainfulRhyme (incredibly clumsy)]] lines ahead. And then Lincoln fumbles it from the very start, rhyming "blah blah blah" with... nothing, or at least not an actual word. I'd noticed a drop in writing quality in favor of spectacle from the onset of season 5, but nothing else illustrated it quite as well.
* Tropers/{{dsneybuf}}: Tony Goldmark's ''WebVideo/OneMovieLater'' "review" of ''Film/{{Cats}}'' went from "obnoxious" to "unwatchable" when the OverlyLongGag of Tony and his friends screaming in horror at the movie (a gag that begins before Tony even drives to the theater) stretched all the way into the "Spoilers" section. At this point, it became evident that the video would provide nothing substantial at all, just EarRape (a lot of which I fast-forwarded through, in feeble hopes of finding an actual review). It already had a lot going against it beforehand, between ''Cats'' having nothing to do with theme parks, Tony Tweeting his dread for the movie (which only has its own episode because it won a viewers' poll), and me doubting that his persona could fit a discussion of a Broadway musical. Unfortunately, the final result squanders the opportunity to branch out of his comfort zone. The general cheapness of his channel also renders unlikely the possibility that he rushed this out to make time for something grand.
* Tropers/{{Pgj1997}}: I'm in the minority here when I say that [=GameDude8899=]'s reviews aren't as bad as people thought they were, but I will agree that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hyLB1tIIII Mario Smash Kart]] is him at his lowest. The whole video is just one big disorganized mess. His arguments fly by way too fast, giving the viewer zero time to take them in. Now, all of [=GameDude=]'s videos feel like this in my opinion (him listing off bullet points, and never explaining himself any further), but this review in particular felt really aimless. One minute, he's talking about the little issues he has with the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' series, the next he's complaining about the ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' games completely out of nowhere (I guess he pulled a Website/ScrewAttack by thinking "you can play as Mario, so they're Mario games"), and then he complains about ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' for some reason. All throughout, there are these extremely anecdotal arguments that I can only assume were just thrown in as jokes (not that they're even funny to begin with), most of which drag on for way too long and throw off the pacing. I do agree with some of his arguments (like how poor ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'''s online was, or the lack thereof in ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii''), but can someone tell me what the point of this video even was?
* [=InTheGallbladder=]: WebVideo/RealTimeFandub's take on the ''VideoGame/SonicRiders'' series. In particular: The climax of ''Zero Gravity'' doesn't resolve in a cutscene. How could they have addressed this? Have the cast speak over gameplay footage, as in the legendary ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' dub. How did they address this? Five long, self-indulgent minutes of Penny and Marble mutely dicking around in VideoGame/GarrysMod, for them and the rest of the cast to kill time talking over. It's worse in that it isn't a BigLippedAlligatorMoment; they try to make it a plot point in what few minutes are left. Ryan, the only actor whose lines were consistently good throughout, put it best:
-->I don't use the word "fucking stupid" loosely...
* [=PickePacMan=] (LetsPlay/SuperLPHeroes): I've been watching the races for a lot of months and enjoyed a lot of them despite people like [=GoldGleeGamer1=] being an unfunny CaptainObvious and never making an effort to improve channel problems and Sinisterkun's obnoxious background noise drowning people out and ruining the commentary. It's because a lot of the other members being actually entertaining are why I watch the races, but the "Wizards & Warriors" race is what killed the whole group thanks to [=GoldGleeGamer1=] basically saying "I'm not going to bother fixing what's broken" and everyone getting into topics that are both sensitive or viewers watch to get away from. When Sinisterkun said "Too bad!" after Lady Lexis said "Let's stay out of politics" was the third strike in a single race killing the entire channel.
* Saberwulf2018: WebVideo/TheCriticalDrinker's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LKaBY222KQ review]] of ''Film/RamboLastBlood'' failed in so many ways possible, with most of it relying heavily on Critical Research Failure (no pun intended). First off, while ''Last Blood'' was meant to be the GrandFinale of the ''Rambo'' saga as a whole, he's not the kind of character to get an epic poignant heroic sendoff. He even goes as far as to claim that he isn't Rambo at all, despite being played by Creator/SylvesterStallone, due to him being more talkative, clean-cut, and easy-going, even going as far as to call him an imposter. He had just came home for once, and stayed there peacefully for years. In the [[Film/FirstBlood first film]], he got back from Vietnam and hadn't settled back yet. In [[Film/RamboFirstBloodPartII the second]], he just got out of prison. [[Film/RamboIII The third]], he was living peacefully in Thailand and was raising money to help monks build a monastery. In [[Film/RamboIV the fourth]], Rambo was depressed and nihilistic and wanted to stay isolated from society. Now come the fifth film, Rambo had found a home, stayed settled for years, and also raised a family. He was also on pills to cope with his PTSD. And Rambo built a tunnel under his home because he was a Vietnam vet, and it was heavily inspired by the Vietcong utilizing the underground tunnel network during the war. Then he goes as far as to criticize not saying which college Gabriela was going to. I thought starting off on general education was what was needed before deciding what field you were to major in. Gabriela's father was just meant to be irredeemable and selfish, and besides, most baddies in ''Rambo'' were always one-dimensional. And the reason why Rambo didn't do any recon in an urban environment is probably because of him being on his pills for his illness. Also, the HumanTraffickers [[BondVillainStupidity keeping Rambo alive]] [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown after beating him to near death]] was out of pure arrogance, as well as Rambo being so easy to gang up on and not seemingly pose a threat. They also wanted to make an example out of him and Gabriela so that they could scare away anyone who confronted them. When Rambo went back to rescue Gabriela from the traffickers, [[DropTheHammer he used a hammer on them]], not an axe. And when Rambo stopped taking the pills, that was when he decided to go back to killing. Again, the pills kept his PTSD at bay. The reason why he built his tunnel to be wired with explosives was because he wanted to make Hugo and his men feel desperation, fear, and helplessness, like what Gabriela did. And the villains did figure out that Rambo was responsible for one of their brothels getting hit, but Hugo had told Victor to let it go and ignore him, to just go back to business. And the worst thing is him criticizing TheStinger, where Rambo rides into the sunset rather than have him die from his wounds. Rambo is not the kind of character to be killed off so easily, it's almost as if he wanted Rambo to die in the end. While he may not have hated the film out of political differences like what most critics have been, I still feel like he was just being spiteful towards it.
* eirigfi: I love Stories of Sodor and most of the episodes. Most of them. Shunted ins't necessarily bad just... weaker. It retells the race between Thomas and Bertie but with real life consequences. The issue comes after the race. To be fair to Edward, he does make some good points that it was stupid and reckless but I think he's making a big deal out of this. Yes racing down the branchline is risky but no one was hurt and this is Thomas' first offense that he knew of. From there, things don't get bad again until the very end where Edward mentions that Thomas and Eric weren't very happy with him when they return it's just swept under the rug. Gee Edward, why would they be so upset at you for overacting? Oh and one more thing, wasn't your temper part of the reason for the closure of your old home Edward? You should have learned from that. But yeah, a pretty weak episode to a great series.
* Tropemaster849: While I prefer the normal ones, I do have a soft spot for Death Battle Exhibition as they are extremely fast paced and I tend to prefer the fights to the research sections. As such, I was really excited for the opener of Season Five, which was ''Thor vs. Vegeta''. But when the video was over, all I could wonder was if the team was trying to screw up as much as possible. First off, the actual fight is only around thirty seconds, with more time on the Ringmaster. Second, the fight has some of the worst 3D animation ever seen. Everything felt way too slow for a fight between two god powered beings. Finally, the death of the loser(who I won't say for spoiler reasons) was so tame I couldn't even tell how they died. While the following battle, ''Mulan vs. Lucina'', did redeem the season, it shouldn't have needed too.
* ScarletNebula: I don't mind Rock Critic/Crash Thompson but The Worst Rock Hits of 1990 has one really bad part that sinks the video for me. So for an hour he builds up the number 1 choice for the list, only for it to be... Cherry Pie. Okay that's fine, the band doesn't even like that song themselves so that isn't the issue. It's the fact that it was a build up to a really awful period joke. Which, besides being gross anyway, just wasn't funny.
** Alex D. Large: I find Crash Thompson to be one of the worst Doug Walker clones out there. He fits the quota so well: over-the-top screaming in an ear-grating high-pitched voice, shit-talking the things he hates, is a horrendous impersonator, and being critical towards those people like he thinks they're going to listen to him. And some of his reviews run for far, far too long. When he rebranded his channel, he said that he would stop the long videos, [[LyingCreator but wouldn't you know it, he's still doing long-ass videos]]. Anyway, one of those examples comes from his review of Bad Religion's "Into the Unknown". Not even thirty seconds in the review, he note that the band's name should not be confused with Godsmack's song of the same name. As he plays a live performance of the song, he starts outright screaming that the song consists of only one note, and screams further at the crowd cheering. That made me shut the video off outright. What makes matters worse is that when actually covers the song for his "I Hate This Song" series, he plays that same clip, only he speaks over his screaming lines in a monotone voice. [[SarcasmMode Like that's going to make that any better]].
** darksteel: I generally like Crash's videos, especially his long ones (I liked that "Into the Unknown" video, aside from the pointless Godsmack jab). But ever since he dropped the Rock Critic moniker, his output has gotten less and less consistent. By far his worst moment, though, was his "Worst Albums of 2020" video, where he put "F8" by Music/FiveFingerDeathPunch at #1 solely because he hated the band's music video for "Living the Dream". He assumed that it was promoting anti-masking, which in reality isn't true, as nobody in the band (Zoltan Bathory included) said they were against COVID mandates or masks or anti-vaxxers. Even if that is true, it still reeks of hypocrisy on Crash's part, considering he has shown to have no problem whatsoever giving glowing praise to Music/SystemOfADown and {{Music/Deftones}} and not putting them in "the bin" despite the two bands both having members that have been FAR much explicit in being anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers then FFDP. So him putting "F8" at #1 just feels a convenient excuse for him to bash the band (and their fans) yet again, which feels oh-so-tiresome and predictable. His reviews of their albums have always been pretty bad, feeling like he's stereotyping them and their fans needlessly and this essentially just confirmed that.
* [=treehugger0369=]: I love [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVTKO1D_G19UlK03ezaADag Snarled]]. I love creepypastas, but my ADHD won't tolerate reading full-length ones, so Snarled's "Something Scary" videos provide a good "bite-size" dose of horror that doesn't overwhelm my attention span. That said, after three years and change of that series (from their first Something Scary video to the uploading of the video I'm ranting about), they dropped one hell of a dud: "[[https://youtu.be/fn6ndXDrJLc Whispers That Bite]]". The cliffnotes version is: a girl is constantly shunned and bullied by her classmates after moving to a new school, and is just told by her school councellor to not let it get to her (Red Flag #1). Upon arriving home one day, she goes on social media and the taunts continue their via her heckler's FB posts, and she begins to believe that what they're saying about her is true, culmiating in her suddenly being covered in unsightly welts that resemble insect bites ([[SarcasmMode which does wonders for her self-esteem in the face of everyone calling her a freak and a monster]]). They go away the following day after she stands up to her bullies mocking her for the welts, but the whole thing just rubbed me the wrong way: It's basically treated like the welts are the victim's fault for letting those words get to her, instead of the bullies for saying those words in the first place. I'm gonna copy and paste my comment on that video here, and hopefully this explains why this is one of the few videos I intentionally clicked the "dislike" button on. (Trigger Warning for the spoilered paragraph: [[spoiler: Suicidal Ideation]])

[[spoiler: As someone who contemplated suicide due to bullying back in high school, this story really hit home for me. And every time I tried to tell my teacher, I was always told "Woman up and deal with it." (I was the only girl in a class of engineering students, hence the bullying; this was a class at a vocational school.) They only took action when, after venting to the councellor about this and other things (mainly finals stress on top of the news that I'd be moving to Florida--I lived in Maryland--immediately after I graduated that year), I was handed a harassment report to fill out and I let slip on the "extra comments" section that I was having those kinds of thoughts as a consequence. I'm not convinced anything would have ever been done if they didn't learn that they were close to having a dead body on their hands. And I only had like five classmates out of a class of like 18 (go figure how many other students were in the school) doing this; I probably wouldn't have lived long enough to fill out the report if every single student was ganging up on me.]]\\
\\
Chris here was pretty much being told the same thing I was; suck it up and try not to let it affect you. But it's not that simple, especially in the time of your life where you're experiencing the most changes and you're trying to figure yourself out. That's the time of your life where outside comments have the most influence, and when you're hearing them every single day, from so many other people, and can't even escape them when you leave (as evidenced by her seeing them on her FB feed), and are hearing or seeing no contradicting evidence that they're right, it's impossible to not start to believe them. It doesn't matter how much of a loner you think you are; humans are naturally social creatures, and being shunned by literally everyone else can be devastating to a person's psyche, no matter how "above it all" they want to be.\\
\\
It shouldn't be on the victim to not let themselves get hurt by other people's words and actions, and the school failed her when the councillor implied that that was what needed to be done instead of taking steps to have the bullies actually disciplined. And don't @ me with "They can't punish every student"; if every student is picking on this one kid, that's an even bigger failure on the school's part because that kind of environment doesn't come out of nowhere.
* Tropers/{{AustinDR}}: While I mostly watch ''WebVideo/BlackCriticGuy'' for his anime reviews, his reviews on films tend to be more of an iffier subject his more contentious reviews being films like ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda3'' and ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2''. But the one review that really irked me was his take on the infamous Netflix film ''Film/{{Cuties}}''. I found myself slightly agreeing with his points such as the film attempting to have a message about over sexualization being wrong (even if I think the film botched it by showing that there were little to no consequences for the girls acting out; rather the film looked like it was ''rewarding'' their behavior). But where I felt Tony missed the mark is exactly ''why'' people were outraged with the film: that would be the casting. Over 600 hundred girls auditioned for the main role and, if it isn't abundantly clear by now, children cannot consent to that kind of stuff. While you could say they accepted the role, there is little way that they would mentally be able to understand the full implications behind what they are being tasked to do. As such, the film shoots its own message in the foot by setting out doing what it preaches against.
* Tropers/{{KrazyTVWatcher}}: While I will admit that DaveTheUsher and his playthrough of the Sega Genesis video game Barney's Hide and Seek was hilarious at times, I did not like the end of the final part. Leading up to the final level, the Farm, Dave's freakouts were in between for me. When he got to the farm, him telling the "noise" in the music to shut up then later mimicking the music had me laughing each time he did it. However, my DMOS is during the credits, Dave outright said that [[MeaninglessMeaningfulWords the developers had no shame in wanting the music and sounds]]. What really turned me away from the video is when DTU yelled out [[PrecisionFStrike "FUCK YOU!"]] to Eric Swanson, in addition to him saying that he [[ArsonMurderandJaywalking should rot in Hell just because he composed music and sounds for the game]]. Again, while I admit that his playthrough of the game was funny at times, this was not one of his better moments.
* Tropers/{{AustinDR}}: I am subscribed to both Top 5 Videos and their horror-themed spinoff. In their list of "Top 5 Horror Movie Villains We All Root For", they list [[Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal Lecter]] as being their number one pick on the grounds that Lecter didn't really kill anyone and attacked the police officers because they were being rude." This, however, completely ignores the fact that he gruesomely murders the guards, including going as far as to wear one of their faces as a mask, when he was rightfully being detained.
* Tropers/Kirby0189: There was a "Top 10 Worst VideoGame/MegaManX Weapons" video I found a little problematic with some strange logic (such the entry on the [[VideoGame/MegaManX5 Dark Hold]] focusing on it being too similar to the [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Time Stopper]] when he doesn't like weapons being reused from past games when it being just as bad as the Time Stopper because it only works on one boss and cannot be turned off until it quickly runs out of energy could have made a substaintial point all on its own), but it still made a lot of good points. The #1 spot was a giant cheat however, as it lists every VideoGame/MegaManX7 weapon. X7 is my GuiltyPleasure, but even I admit that most of its weapons are awful, and the video expressed similar thoughts to mine in how they consume too much weapon energy and X's targeting makes them useless compared to the regular X-Buster most of the time, but sticking all eight weapons into the same spot is a bad move because it implies that they are all equally bad. Really, the Moving Wheel or Explosion should have been in the #1 spot with entries all to their own unacompanied by the other six. Also, despite him trying to insist that it's not a cheat, the start of the video had him say that he had to scrape the bottom of the barrel for the early entries because there weren't enough truly-awful weapons to fill out ten spots. Then maybe you should have spread out some of the X7 weapons across the list to help pad it out with actually bad weapons? The entry on the Splash Laser was the worst. Anyone who was played X7 knows that this weapon's charged form tears through enemies and bosses, and the wiki says that it is the most powerful weapon X can obtain from a Maverick. This goes completely unaddressed, not even as a "yea it can do this, but on the other hand it sucks because...", with the entry showing it alongside footage of the [[VideoGame/MegaManX2 Bubble Splash]] and trying to make the point that it's too similar, even though the footage clearly shows the Bubble Splash firing a few small bubbles that float upward while the Splash Laser fires a stream of water that goes downward, and then the Splash Laser's charged form firing large bubbles straight forward in rapid sucession (and the Bubble Splash's charged form, which is really different from anything the Splash Laser offers, is conveniently left out). If the logic is that all bubble weapons are the same, then he should hate the Bubble Splash too for using bubbles like the [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Bubble Lead]]. If you're going to bash something from X7 (which I have no problem with because I know it's bad even if I enjoy it), at least make substantial points that don't make it look like you're grasping at straws.
* Tropers/AspieFangirl1984: I really hate the Virgin vs Chad meme. I used to find it funny, but it seems like it devolved into "Thing I like vs thing I don't like." and it just... annoys me. Many of the reasons for the "Virgin" side being inferior also tend to be quite weak (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Franchise/StarWars Rey is inferior to Ahsoka]] is that... she's human?[[note]] Although I would like to see a non-human protagonist [[/note]]) or stupid (e.g. one of the reasons that [[Film/CaptainMarvel Carol Danvers]] is inferior to [[Film/AlitaBattleAngel Alita]] is because... her gender was changed for no reason?[[note]] Carol Danvers was always a woman, although the mantle of Captain Marvel (which she's held for nearly ten years now) was originally held by a man, who was given a rather divisive [[spoiler:GenderFlip]] in the film in question[[/note]]) And then there's [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/438/423/415.png this one]]. Now, I love both WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower and WesternAnimation/{{Hilda}}, but this... is really stupid. I don't remember being [[CharacterShilling told why I should like]] Adora. Also, both shows are excellent, and I highly doubt that Creator/NDStevenson "cherry picks" critics, considering that's not how Website/RottenTomatoes works. Also, what I ''really'' hate is how this meme isn't comparing two shows or characters, it's comparing two RealLife people, (who I would honestly love to see collaborate on a graphic novel, but that's beside the point).
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: At one point in the ''Animated Anarchy'' video on ''WesternAnimation/FelixTheCatTheMovie'', a clip from the movie is shortened to make it sound like the man who would later become the Duke of Zill was banished from the Kingdom of Oriana just because he was disfigured in an accident and had to rebuild his body. The critic in the video then proceeds to call the people who banished him horrible people and says “No wonder he doesn't like you!” However, if the movie clip hadn't been edited, you would have heard that the future Duke wanted a powerful book that the people in charge of the Kingdom wouldn't let him have. I don't know if this is a deliberate case of ManipulativeEditing or if the critic somehow didn't know that the dialogue he cut out actually matters, but there you go.
* Tropers/SoaringEagle: I don't know who [=TheClooch=] is, but after watching his video "VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}: How to Kill a Video Game", I don't think I want to know more. Regardless of your opinion on the current state of Blizzard's latest, the bad balancing, and whether or not it deserves a sequel, to call the game "dead" is like calling Franchise/StarWars "dead"; neither is true, no matter how much the fandom complains about either. As far as I'm concerned, a game is only dead when there are less than 1,000 players, or the servers shut down. Oh! But the big reason why the video makes it on this page, in my opinion, is one line towards the end of the video, regarding when Overwatch "died": "It was dead on arrival." You heard it here, friends: a game that has almost 50 million players worldwide, made over $500 million in its first year alone, and won numerous awards since launch, was "dead on arrival". I've seen numerous users around the Internet trying to convince people that Overwatch is the worst game ever made, but this video has to be the worst case.
* Tropers/BigJimbo: Coming across a ''WebComic/GarfieldMinusGarfield'' reaction video by a [=YouTuber=] called "The Click", I found it funny initially... but then he reads one where Jon seems to vomit after breathing the air outside his house or something, and his reaction is "Corona." Say what you will about COVID-19 jokes, but I find the ones that either come across as "Get it? It's funny because COVID exists" or shoehorn in a mention extremely infuriating, and taking that out of the equation, how about people who are given anxiety by the very mention of the virus? This moment alienated me so much, I'd rather not watch another of these videos.
* Scsigs: Oof, am I probably gonna get heat for this entry if his stans find out about this entry here. Anyways, since this is the section for one-offs & actual people that make content online, my choice is Edwins Generation/Edwin Costa. This dude is a fucking trainwreck of a human being, from the fact that he lucked into being a commentary channel when he used his old roommate Cyr and Cyr's ex Dasha to exploit terrible things they've done (both deserving of backlash and not) to gain clout and bring hate to them, he defended a proven sexual predator by resurrecting a 5-year-old drama that'd been long since buried, and he's proven himself very [[CantTakeCriticism incapable of taking any form of legit criticism]], egotistical, HolierThanThou, IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance, and extremely hypocritical ever since he started covering Onision, which is what I'm going to talk about. In 2019, he started reacting to Onision's videos when he became a hot-button topic to talk about. Then, he befriended most of his victims and made it seem like he was actually affected by Creator/{{Shiloh}} like one of his now-friends was to put him on the same level as him by dragging Shiloh down like he did Cyr and Dasha. I'm in no way defending what Shiloh did at that time, but he clearly used it for clout gain when he could. Fast forward to early 2021 and he's suddenly on the Discovery+ Onision documentary ''Onision: In Real Life''. This is where it gets hysterical. So, he didn't tell ''anyone'' he was gonna be in it, not the victims (whom he's supposedly friends with), or his other commentary friends. In fact, he openly criticized it being made before and after he filmed his parts for it online. However, when screenshots leaked early of the first episode and showed he was in it, he immediately got questioned by everyone who said it was a ''very'' hypocritical move. He quickly claimed he "vetted the producers thoroughly" beforehand and told his commentary friends that he agreed to do it because he had the producers promise him he could "get a shot in at Chris Hansen." The documentary aired and his "shot" was a milktoast take about how Chris Hansen exploited the victims when he interviewed them for financial gain (which, Hansen's an investigative journalist and he's been doing that job for years because he got paid through it. How else is he going to make money?). Not only that, but he appeared in all of 6-7 minutes of the doc's first 3 episodes and the majority of his screentime was made up of explaining how Onision might've became popular so quickly over a decade ago on [=YouTube=], how [=YouTube's=] monetization program works, and the "shot", which Hansen then used as a way to do a TakeThat back at the commentary people who criticize him, as Edwin and his friends do, justifiably or not. The best part is that a stan of someone Edwin's repeatedly criticized in the past in some of his videos hacked into his Twitter account and screen recorded his [=DMs=] with a bunch of people. One set of which with Steven Asarch, one of the main producers and presenters of the docu series, when leaked revealed that he didn't vet him ''nearly'' as thoroughly as he said he did, nor did he actually get a promise to "Take a shot" at Hansen. He was genuinely lying and, when called out on it, couldn't take the backlash and deactivated his Twitter and took a break from the internet to try to let the backlash die down. So, tl;dr, I believe the Onision docu series is his dethroning moment, as he's shown to be a hypocrite because he neither likes Chris Hansen, nor did he avow the doc being made beforehand, a sellout because he clearly did it for clout, as he admitted he didn't get paid money to be in it and he was clearly expecting to be paid in exposure instead, and the fact that there's proof that he's willing to say what he thinks he needs to to make himself look like a victim in every place he can, as he claimed the producers purposely manipulated his footage to omit things, or cast things in different lights in the finished product and ''he'' was manipulated into being in the doc and said the things he said, he's clearly not the person he wants everyone to think he is and the backlash he's getting is well deserved.
* ''Tropers/{{Thepenguinking2}}'': Now, lemme preface this first: I am not a fan of Creator/ElectronicArts in the slightest. While I stood up for them in the past, I realize that they've done a lot of scummy stuff, more than even the average Triple A company (The ratings trickery in the mobile ''VideoGame/DungeonKeeper'' game, gutting multiple studios they've bought out, barely even giving ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesBattleForNeighborville'' a chance before cutting support, etc.). So, as to expect, [[https://youtu.be/CPBlnyM9IMc this video by Thomas Game Docs]] about EA stealing someone's game concept caught my interest. On top of all the horrible things they've done already, EA also committed plagarism? This sounds morbidly fascinating! But then it turned out the video was talking about ''Zuma''. A game developed by Creator/PopcapGames. While yes, Popcap is currently owned by EA (And after how horribly handled ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombiesHeroes'' and ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies 3'' were, I can't deny that they're basically using them as a flesh puppet at this point), Zuma was made years before EA took them over. This includes the sequel, and the DS port, which was released four months before Popcap was finally owned by EA. While the video does mention that Popcap was bought out by EA, it misinformedly states that the sequel was made during this time, which is just plain untrue, as I mentioned before. I don't entirely know if ''Zuma Blitz'' was made before or after the EA acquisition, but the video doesn't even mention it at any point, so that question doesn't matter. But hey! As long as you're mocking [[AcceptableTargets Electronic Arts]], rational thinking is just optional! This is my first time watching one of his videos, but after this miserably uninformed display, it's likely my last.
* ''Tropers/Siegfried1337'': While I still respect [=KonekoKitten=] for his commentary videos on ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'', one moment that almost pushed me to my RageBreakingPoint was that when he posted a video about "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j6Buy2ngB0 the truth about roblox bans...]]". In the video, Koneko talks about how some Roblox bans were absolutely justified since they were actually doing shady stuff and used Inspect Element to cover up the truth about some of their bans. That part gave me an absolute headache since I have seen most bans on Roblox be legitimate (and in case what you are wondering, yes, I have done my research on their accounts), so it really stood out that Koneko would say such a thing. Given how unpopular Roblox moderation is, and the fact that getting mistakenly banned is tragically common, and this basically nearly made him a massive BrokenPedestal to me, since this is a complete 180 from his well thought-out his videos were, seeing him do that made me less likely to continue supporting him if he continously holds this view. Trust me, when people do hot takes, at least most of them know how to get proof on how to make a good hot take, but this is not one of them.
* Levitator: WebVideo/CinemaWins used to be one of my favorite Youtube channels. It was a fresh breath of positivity in the noxious haze of [[CausticCritic Caustic Critics.]] I always felt like it was a channel for everyone to unite and defend the things the cruel internet hated. But then came his awful, awful video for {{Film/Elysium}}. I'll admit I didn't really like this movie that much, partly because I considered it to have an EsotericHappyEnding, but I'd seen the channel effectively defend movies I didn't like that much before and I enjoyed the alternate perspective, so I was looking forward to seeing it. But then the video consisted of constant bashing of capitalism, unfunny "eat the rich" jokes, and relentless EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory claims. Lee pretty much said that he considered the USA in 2021 to be a cyberpunk dystopia already. His closer segment, often the best part of his video, contained ignorant opinions about subjects such as food waste (restaurants and stores throw out food because of government regulation and the possibility of being sued!) that demonstrated Lee shouldn't be expressing opinions on such complex issues. He also suggested that his radical views shouldn't be considered a political issue, which only makes me wonder if he's even met a conservative. I'm not going to stop watching his videos because of this, but this is the first WebVideo/CinemaWins video to put me in a worse mood than when I started, and if that isn't a DMOS, I don't know what is.
* JHD0919: [[WebVideo/{{Animerica}} Animerica's]] "Top 25 Anime No One Should Ever Watch" was a hot mess. The "I'm right and you're wrong" attitude was prevalent throughout the video, but nowhere more so than his [[Anime/CodeGeass Code Geass R2]] segment. Will Ryan brings up how the season was upvoted higher than [[Anime/CowboyBebop Cowboy Bebop]] and [[Anime/SpiritedAway Spirited Away]] on Anime News Network, and then has the gall to ask the voters if they've lost their minds. Will. Buddy. It's okay if you hate R2, you're entitled to your opinion, but stop acting like it's an objectively bad show. What you did here is pass off your opinion on the show as if it was objective fact, and that anybody who disagrees with that "fact" (massive quotes there) is objectively wrong. This act was far from the only problem with the list, but it was the one that annoyed me the most.
* Asue: WebVideo/TotallyNotMark deserves a mention. His reviews, while not spectacular, are okay at best and inoffensive at worst. But there's something that needs to be adressed and that is his apparent obsession with ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'''s Episode 5 and its poor animation when it was first broadcast. If it was just mentionned in passing or even just a point of criticism when reviewing the show (and he did), it wouldn't be much of a problem. The issue is, he keeps bringing it up. A lot. And when someone criticized him for it, instead of considering it maybe a dead horse joke at this point, he smugly admitted that [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer he has the original broadcast of the episode saved and he loves to watch it]], completely dismissing the criticism at all. If he [[CantTakeCriticism can't take criticism]] for a friggin' overused joke, well, why would I listen to him? On a minor note, his "Every Difference In Dragon Ball Z Abridged" video feels like a waste of time, as it tells the [[CaptainObvious obvious (as if anyone would mistake any element of the parody for something from the orginal series)]].
* Tropers/Ordeaux26: I never thought that [[WebVideo/MLPAnalysis MisAnthro Pony]] was that amazing of a channel, but his review on ''Film/{{Cuties}}'' was what made me lose all respect for him. While I agree that the film is worthy of criticism and is quite a massive problem in many ways, but he took that criticism way too far. Specifically, the part where he shows comments from a bunch of people on Twitter and encourages his viewers to harass them and report them to get them banned, even going so far as to include links to various commenters and people who supported the film in the video description. He also wanted to shut down Netflix as a whole simply to the film and, in general, attacked anyone who liked the film, even if they weren't being bad.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: A Microsoft Sam-utilizing [=YouTuber=] named Sam da Vlogger used to call out immaturity in the [=GoAnimate=] community. However, I later found out that his online girlfriend caused him to act mean-spirited from mid-2019 to mid-2020, when he closed his [=YouTube=] account. This obviously explains the video that caused me to give up on his channel for the third time (that's right, I had two DMOS's before this one, but they were from before the aforementioned mean-spiritedness). In said video, he made mean comments to a [=YouTube=] user, who I think was named Some Person, who left a comment pretending to use [=GoAnimate=] logic to teleport to Dragonland. Sam was basically assuming that Some Person was an immature brat who doesn't "deserve to watch" ''WesternAnimation/DragonTales'' just because the person unironically referenced [=GoAnimate=] and had a ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' profile picture. To top it all off, he showed a screenshot of mean comments directed at Some Person, but in a way that endorsed them instead of calling them out like he probably would have from 2016 to mid-2019.
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I think the group called Accuracy in Media has done good work, but I unsubscribed from their emails after one of their articles assumed the worst about ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed''. The logic of the article is as follows: because a film critic got in trouble for describing the movie as "horny", and because of the existence of sex scandals in Hollywood along with media that the article claims sexualizes children (one example the article gave was ''Film/{{Cuties}}'', which didn’t even originate from Hollywood, and no, the American marketing of the film was not referred to at all), then the aforementioned critic must have "said the quiet part out loud" and ''Turning Red'' must be bad for kids! Judging by this and their article on ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyANewGeneration'' ([[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch both of these articles got all their information on the movies in question from news sources that AIM might usually critique]]), I think Accuracy in Media should watch children's media first before deciding if it’s bad for kids.
* Tropers/RWBYraikou888: I used to really like WebVideo/MangaKamen's content, especially during his days in WebOriginal/TheCommentaryCommunity when he primarily used Skull Kamen. I was always invested in his ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' and ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' content, always got a kick out of him knocking the ivory off the towers of people like Verlisify, and while I am admittedly a fan of ''WebVideo/GameTheory'', I still enjoyed his content that ragged on it as sort of a balancing act. However, two events eventually made me realize he had become increasingly arrogant and antagonistic, and led me to [[BrokenPedestal outright unsubscribe from him]]. Firstly, his disdain towards ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}''. As soon as he first uploaded "What's Wrong with RWBY?!", I knew that his channel was [[ThisIsGonnaSuck about to take a dark turn]]. Now, him not being a fan of ''RWBY'' isn't a problem in its own right, as the show has a few blemishes that could be amended, but the way that the video was presented reigned eerily similar to the likes of Creator/LilyOrchard, who, last I checked, he had no respect for following her transition to more rant-based content. If it had been as simple as "Why RWBY Doesn't Do Enough For Me", I feel like it could have been more digestible, but the fact that he ended up hopping on the bandwagon of turning ''RWBY'' into the internet's second-biggest punching bag after ''Sonic'' made me realize how far gone he had been compared to his previous videos, where he delivered takedowns to people who deserved it. What made things even worse was a Reddit thread I found where he discussed with a ''RWBY'' fan that he keeps talking down on the show because he think there are an uneven amount of defenders and detractors weighing too hard on the side of defenders, but if the amount of influence spread by the likes of Vexed Viewer and Hero Hei are any indication, I think he's got it backwards. The fact that he hasn't stopped the ''RWBY'' backlash to this day only reinforces how I feel he's too arrogant to see reason. Second, and the thing that actually made me unsubscribe from him, is his unfriendly rivalry with [=TheMetalBlade5=]. Now, don't get me wrong, I feel as though Metal was just as in the wrong as him, and I also unsubscribed from his channel following his attempt at ranting on the ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind Golden Wind]]'' dub and subsequent calling out of [=RiverDude=] Covers, but everything that Kamen tried to deny about his distorting of Metal's attempt at reasonable discussion and adding fuel to the fire made me come to realize that Kamen holds a perpetual NeverMyFault attitude, and after removing his jokes of Skull Kamen being a perpetual ButtMonkey for his attempts at naysaying, it made me find out just how egotistical he could get. The fact that I used to be a fan of both Kamen and Metal made me feel bummed out that the two could never see reason, as it meant that Metal would have his image at the time sullied further, while Kamen descended more and more into self-importance and couldn't be reached out to. In the end, I felt as though [=MangaKamen=] was a breath of fresh air in the vitriolic world of [=YouTube=] commentaries, but ultimately [[HeWhoFightsMonsters became the thing he was initially subverting]].
* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I stumbled across [=FoxAkimbo=]'s video "[=YouTube=]'s DISGUSTING Terminated Channels...", and I found that when he briefly talks about [=OfficerPoop247=], he acts as if any content involving Caillou deserves to be taken down, while neglecting, or perhaps not knowing, to explain how [=GoAnimate=] Caillou videos are different or even the real reason why that account got terminated. To that I say, "Well, that was unprofessional!"
* Tropers/Amber72004: I was on the Mondo Media website when I spotted The 80s movies Made Today video from Like, Share, Die. Most of the segments of the video are fine, Like the ET part, But it got to the A Christmas Story segment, Where Ralph gets shot by the police, Really? He didn't do anything but got a rifle for Christmas A police wouldn't even a shoot a kid if they have a gun, In the original movie, He shot his glasses out by accident, In here, He gets shot by the police, Any police wouldn't even shoot a kid unless if it was the parent, And also, the movie is set in the 1950s, not the 1980s, so it was a bit of critical research failure that the series had. If crosses the line twice, then I don't know what is.
* Tropers/Amber72004: [[https://youtu.be/yfnuu4TtlZI this video about the documentary of South Park]] by Italian Youtuber Apocaloso, The most of the video is fine, but when he said that animation is genre, which something that [[FandomEnragingMisconception makes animation fans angry]]. Animation is a medium, not a genre, The medium itself predates film and it's one of the most intensely popular mediums as comics and literature, The YouTuber himself needs to some more research when he makes his videos next time.
* Tropers/Amber72004 [[https://hecknopoohsadventures.tumblr.com/post/80103838421/ok-can-we-please-talk-about-this-jerk-the This post from an anti-Pooh's Adventures Tumblr blog]] is just badly-written about a user on Deviantart, The users puts hyphens on words such as ''sick f**k'' and ''High time'' and misspelled the word ''Quality'' and he uses all-caps on his post as well, This just come as very unprofessional at best and poorly-written at worst.
* Tropers/MelancholyUtopia: I'm indifferent towards ''WebVideo/TheWarpZone'' for the most part: they have some semi-funny sketches (as most of them, in my opinion, have jokes that are too generic, unoriginal or just extremely dated as fans already made the same jokes ages ago) in their "If X had Y" type videos, and I like the accurate voice acting of the game characters. That said, one time made me sigh in disappointment, and that was in their "IF POKÉMON HAD FACEBOOK" video. In one of the sketches, in response to Giovanni arguing intelligent design over evolution, Misty replies with "Nobody intelligently designed ''these'' guys". and showed pictures of Garbodor, Rotom and Klefki. Then Klefki writes a post and says "I'm Keys!!" Haa-haa. Two of those made me cringe as they are just reiterating the same boring, old observation that "these pokémon are just objects and it's ridiculous!!!" Never mind the fact that Garbodor is supposed to be an embodiment representative of the pollution/trash problem in New York City, a place the Unova region is based on. An even worse offender in this case is Klefki, however, as if you bothered to do even a modicum of research is based on the pagan belief that fairies are to blame for small objects, such as keys, going missing, hence why it's a fairy-type, and which I personally considered kind of a crafty way to reinforce the unique "steel/fairy" type combo. Also, in Japan, there's an old mythos that carrying a specific iron charm will ward off those types mischievous creatures, again alluding fairy and steel together. Furthermore its name is a take on the French word clef, which means key. Yet the guys who wrote these sketches have the gall to say they weren't "intelligently designed". Look, it's perfectly okay if you don't like their designs, but it's plain dishonest and objectively wrong to say no thought was put behind their aesthetic. Another thing, has there ever been some kind of invisible rule in some official Pokémon rulebook that says Pokémon can't be based on objects? Not that I can recall, since the Magnemite, Voltorb and Grimer evolution lines (from Gen I) exist.
* Tropers/Amber72004, I was watching LS Mark's video on Shut Up Cartoons when he shows black and white clips of people crying and that's he uses the annoying baby crying sound effect in the background, The sound effect was very annoying, so I skipped it. Why would you add a baby crying sound effect in background with footage of adults crying? That's like using a child crying sound effect used in background with footage of old people crying, That is just annoying that this baby crying sound is used in the video.

* Tropers/{{theenglishman}}: I know this will be an unpopular opinion, but to me, ''[[https://youtu.be/qMI1-DDklqE Character Assassination: Authorized]]'' represents the absolute nadir of the channel, and is still their only wrongpurae I can't endure in full. slowbeef's, well, beef with ''VideoGame/MetroidOtherM'' is not undeserved, and while his rants about the game in his LetsPlay of ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime3Corruption'' [[FranchiseOriginalSin were lengthy, passionate and vicious]], [[HandWave it could be chalked up to knee-jerk outrage because he had just finished Other M before starting his playthrough of Prime 3]]. But seeing slowbeef going on a ''very'' personal rant against Creator/YoshioSakamoto for two hours ''a full year'' after having last played ''Other M'' was not so endearing, showcasing the worst traits of WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}}'s early work back when they would attack LPers directly. The few jokes that manage to work (mostly courtesy of Diabetus) have no impact because slowbeef just will not shut up about his hate-boner for Sakamoto, no matter how much the man deserves it. When we already have [[WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay Mat, Pat and Woolie's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL72A90C88878A43B7 excellent (and much funnier) video series]] covering the exact same points about ''Other M'''s bad writing and UnfortunateImplications, without once referring to Sakamoto as a functional illiterate, this video has no reason to exist.

* Darkton: So I was watching the third episode of ''WebVideo/MyLittlePonyCamaraderieIsSupernatural''. It was a parody of Call of the Cutie, and was going pretty fine before, then Applejack said "You can't just go around harassing the customers? [[TakeThat Who do you think we are,]] [[MisBlamed Capcom?]]" I stopped watching the video immediately after that. Wasn't the premise built on the Elements of Parody? Which one of them was the "Element of Attack Humor", exactly? That's why I call this one of the lowest of the low in terms of humor.

* [=TSF=]: Before season 4 of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', I used to enjoy Digibrony's (or [[SuddenNameChange Digibro]]) content relating to the show. His reviews and analysis were, for the most part, fair. He thinks the episode "Magical Mystery Cure" is good,to the point where he calls it his favorite episode of the entire series-- he thinks ''WebAnimation/DoubleRainboom'' is a fantastic piece of fan work. Both opinions of which I respectively disagree. I don't think that episode was that good nor "Double Rainboom", but I could see why he likes those episodes. Now, there's a reason why I said "before season 4". And that's because after his review on the first episode of that season "Princess Twilight Sparkle", he took a big nosedive in terms of fairness and quality. Much like Brony Curious (or... pfft, [[SuddenNameChange Tommy Oliver]]), who is another member of the brony analysis community who I'm disappointed with, Digi became more pessimistic towards the episodes he reviewed, focusing more on critique rather than enjoyment. It's okay to critique something,yes, but you have to decide whether you enjoy it or not so you won't end up like a CausticCritic. One example of his downhill descent is in his semi-collaboration with Tommy Oliver's "Equestria Games" review, where one of their major criticisms,if not the major, is that it [[ExpectingSomeoneTaller focused more on Spike instead of the actual Equestria Games]]. And admittedly, while I consider Tommy to be not as bad as Digi, I expected better from him. Wouldn't it be okay to just say whether or not you actually enjoy Spike's conflict instead of complaining that the episode didn't focus on the games? But... the video that made me done with him was his "Twilight's Kingdom" review, where he bashed the song "You'll Play Your Part" because it didn't have any purpose (which, by the way, it had a clear point) and called it the worst song of the entire show. And he also bashed the new design of Twilight's home, the castle, [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks calling it visually unpleasing, empty, and a poor replacement for Twilight's "iconic" treehouse]]... saying this without giving it a decent chance. I believe this is one of the main reasons why he stopped watching the show. There are other reasons why I hated that review, but those two stand out for me. Now I like anime, but the reason why I won't watch his current anime reviews and analysis (which ironically, are better) is because I can't watch them without scoffing and feeling underwhelmed after that review. He believes the show is going downhill after season 4, I believe the contrary, dear Digibro. In fact, I believe you made it down the hill. Unsubscribed!

** hydrix: I have watched the first episode of "Tropes vs. Woman in video games" titled as "The Damsel in Distress" and as someone who, in all honesty, only has bare-bones knowledge about video games (I own a SNES, so yeah) I find the video to be insulting as all hell. So she first mentions the development of Star Fox Adventures, which was first released as an adventure game with a female fox-like protagonist, but later on changed to fit the main character of VideoGame/StarFox as a protagonist, with her as a damsel in distress. That ignores that in general most video games (or at least those that are not shovelware) take a year to make. I might as well use a moral where I say that developers should keep women in a closet during development because the developer of the C64 port of parasol stars saw how his own game was destroyed by his own wife (courtesy of Guru Larry). Then later she talks about the use of it in games such as VideoGame/SuperMarioBros and VideoGame/TheLegendOfZelda series and how it is sexist, outright ignoring that it is more used as a bare-bones plot device rather than anything else. It is insulting to me that those people playing back in the NES days who were playing The Legend of Zelda and widely exploring its world, characters and developments or those playing Super Mario Bros., where they were on a wild adventure with tons of challenges, all get lumped in as sexist morons who were only playing it for the woman/girl at the end. It makes me wonder how the men and women that got the excitement from those series feel about this. In all honesty though, sexism in video games is a thing that needs to be addressed, but what Anita did there was a regurgitation of what already was known back in 1988 with VideoGame/FinalFantasyII, where at one point it is like if you have saved the princess only to get in bed with her to find out that he was doing it with a Lamia Queen, triggering a boss battle where you and all the characters that have been with you up to that point fight against it. It is thus very useless and a waste of time and resources.

* Tropers/MetalAiAi: [=PatMac=]'s video on [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic Bootlegs]] starts off perfectly fine, then at the 6 minute mark he suddenly makes a quip about how factories would still be producing a line of cheap figures after the death of the universe and erasure of mankind. Here's the problem: I was close to shaking off an existential crisis when I was watching, expecting an entertaining video, only for that cheap joke to make me lose all motivation and even made me consider becoming a LazyBum for the rest of my life because everything would be pointless in the end. Fortunately, I was able to snap myself out of this funk, [[FridgeHorror but what if someone who was suffering from depression wanted to watch the video to cheer themselves up?

* Assassin-sensei: Demolition D+/[=DouchebagChocolat=] produces high-quality/hilarious content 95% of the time I would recommend to any anime fan. However, his [[https://youtu.be/Owa5KcQ9Mxc rant on lolicon]] is highly flawed in that he praises ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDxD'''s depiction of various breast sizes while having an anti-lolicon attitude (in the same video). [=DxD=] is a series which legally could be considered lolicon, and is even banned in New Zealand. This makes his argument highly hypocritical and brings up a requirement to know how he defines "lolicon".
