** Lupa's cameo in the {{Melancholia}} review. Just... ...Christ...

* MisaimedFandom: One of the points of the ''{{Melancholia}}'' review was that Oan (in his depressed state) was being horrible to his friends on the site, and that everyone creates something amazing. So FanDumb of course acts like nothing anybody does could ever compete with the episode.

* MemeticMutation: Escargoancitizen. Part of a weird minific series on Tumblr, Kyle is a snail, and other people on the site are other wodland animals (or plants, or inanimate objects). Eventually he and his title card artist Ven filmed a live action version of the OriginStory of Oancitizen; a pastiche of ''Manga/{{Uzumaki}}''. Escargoancitizen fanart is also popular on Tumblr.
* {{Moe}}: The drawn title cards has his character as rather "moe"-like, particularly in the Sabastine review.

* InternetBackdraft: He uploaded "The Girlfriend Experience" to ThatGuyWithTheGlasses. By day's end, he was bombarded by accusations of slut-shaming, misogyny, and overall bad taste. He wound up losing viewers and disgusting newcomers out of taking interest. When he tore it down and explained why he didn't like the review, he was accused of everything from backpedaling to weakness of character.

** Again when he posted "Shit TGWTG Fans Say," in which one of the guests stated their vocal hatred of "Rants," the admin of a Postsecret-style fanblog. He couldn't even put it up on the site before he was compelled to tear it down, and by then it had already caused disquiet amidst the reviewers.

* ButtMonkey: In and out of character; he is often taken on reviews to act as the stoic foil to all sorts of slapstick and sillyness, gets tormented by other reviewers, most prominently by DiamandaHagan. Out of character, three videos ihe posted on TGWTG in 2012 caused controvercies, two from fans, one from the creator of the film he reviewed.

* FridgeBrilliance: In the ''Trash Humpers'' episode, Oancitizen declares that "our words are backed with nuclear weapons!" Of course, this is a quote from ''{{Civilization}}'', but keep in mind what happened at the end of the ''Ken Park'' review.

* HateDumb: From a few [[WebOriginal/TheCinemaSnob Cinema Snob]] fans that only see him as an inferior knock-off, completely unaware their styles and movie targets are different (He does art films, not exploitation films). One even signed under his name, claiming (as him) to be an unofficial sequel to the Snob.

As a native speaker of both languages I can confirm that it\'s worse. Country Matters level.


** The way he called [[AustinPowers Goldmember]] out in Dutch is offensive enough translated literally, but he also calls him a cancer victim. "Kanker" (the Dutch word for "cancer") is the worst expletive in the language, on par with English "fuck."

* UnfortunateImplications: ''The Girlfriend Experience'' was (albeit accidentally) incredibly misogynistic, to the point where Oancitizen considered tearing it down. This did not, however, stop him from uploading it to ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.

* TheWoobie: Considering he subjects himself to so many horrible things, Oancitizen is often the first to cry. ''Alice'' makes him break down in tears of terror, and ''The Fall'' causes him to cry inky mascara tears, [[FridgeLogic even though he wasn't actually wearing any makeup at the time]]. Not to mention he suffers through so many disturbing films. You just want to give him a hug.
