** In Weasel's second video on [=MonkeyGamerGuides=] (and the second episode in general), Weasel mentions that all he could find on the [=PS2God=] (whom MGG claims to have "went to war" with) was that he was a former [=Youtuber=] who left the website after his videos recieved numerous false flags from someone who wasn't MGG. Weasel then goes on to mentions that false DMCA notices are a crime. Guess what major dilemma [=YouTubers=] have been facing for a long while now?

* IKnewIt: In the show's early days, Weasel has alluded several times to the inevitability of gay marriage's legalization. This prediction came to pass in June of 2015, when gay marriage officially became accepted nationwide.

Fixing green link. Calling real people "villains" is ROCEJ-violating.


* FashionVictimVillain: For as much as a troll being fed could be considered a villain, Weasel comments that Creator/TrishaPaytas looks like a Franchise/FinalFantasy character.

** [[TheFundamentalist Religious Fundamentalists]] are a frequent target of his scorn.
** Flat Earthers and people who believe in other ludicrous [[ConspiracyTheorist conspiracy theories]] are a more [[PlayedForLaughs light-hearted]] example.
** Right-Wing TalkShow hosts generally produce some of his angrier feedings.
** Given how he fed Tai Lopez 3 times, and they were some his angriest and most venomous feedings, it can be inferred that Weasel doesn’t have a high opinion of [[ConMan scam artists]].

* CriticalResearchFailure: Not on Weasel's part, but quite a few of the people he makes fun of are like this. One example would be episode 64, where Glenn Beck complains about some game having an AntiHero protagonist, and asks why we can't have straight-up heroes like Superman anymore, apparently not knowing that Superman (and, indeed, most well known superheroes) have had tons of video games made about them.




* FunnyAneurysmMoment: In the second episode regarding 3PAC, Weasel makes a joke that 3PAC is dead in the music video. A few months later, [[http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/SJSU-water-polo-player-rapper-taken-off-life-6578357.php 3PAC died for real]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBXgTl9fUUk Weasel took note of this]].
** In the same video, Weasel makes a joke on how 3PAC and another woman (revealed to be a close friend of 3PAC) flailing their arms while on their back makes it look like 3PAC's mom is teaching him how to swim before getting into the pool. 3PAC suffered a heart attack during a water polo training session which would later lead to his death.

* {{Anvilicious}}: The second episode on Irwin Baxtor is not at all subtle about how climate change is an extremely serious issue that nothing is being done about.



* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped:
** His episodes on James The Preacher, Caiden Cowger, [=ConservativeElite=], Apologetics, Irwin Baxter, and Steven Anderson all deal in debunking the arguments made by [[HeteronormativeCrusaders homophobic Christians]] in order to push that there is nothing wrong with being gay, and that these people are only using the bible as an excuse to justify their bigotry.
** Adding onto that, the ending to the last James The Preacher episode is one as it discusses how one should really deal with people like James The Preacher: Ignore him, since anything you do will just feed into his delusions and embolden him
** The Paul Joseph Watson episode goes to lengths about how it doesn't matter if you hadn't gone through any hardships throughout your life, since much like how even the most fit athletes can have heart attacks or the most dedicated vegans can contract diabetes, you are still liable to develop depression regardless of how happy your existence has been from an outside view.
** The second episode on Irwin Baxtor is not at all subtle about how climate change is an extremely serious issue that nothing is being done about but given what [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt would happen]] if nothing is done about it...
** “Just Wear the Mask” is rant on how refusing to wear a mask and treat the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic seriously will lead to things becoming much worse than they would’ve otherwise been. Eerily prophetic given how since that video the death toll in the US at time of writing is 500,000 and the economy has basically collapsed.
** The episode on James Ramsey is a brutal takedown on how tone deaf and out of touch the people in charge are about the economic hardships caused by the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic and how unfair the US economy is towards the people of the lower class.

Removed Moral Event Horizon. James the Preacher is a very real, if admittedly screwed up, person and calling a real person evil is not a good idea. Also it’s questionable if saying fucked up things even counts as MEH as people can change their viewpoints and, by definition, crossing the MEH is a point of no return.


* MoralEventHorizon: James the Preacher subverts this in probably the most horrifying way possible.
** In Weasel's last episode on him, Weasel explains that in the original version of his Feeding, the episode ended with him walking out of the room in disgust after James's comment blaming the Sandy Hook shootings for the victim's mothers not staying at home. Subverted when Weasel realizes that it isn't too far off from what James usually says. The horrifying part about it is that it raises the question that, if the one thing that threw Weasel over the edge isn't much worse than what James usually says, was James ever even out of the event horizon to begin with?

** In his video on Captain Crazyfication he talks about how Crazyfication did a video mocking Jew Wario’s death as being incredibly tasteless. The moment becomes quite cringeworthy in light if Jew Wario’s posthumous sex abuse allegations.

* SpecialEffectFailure: Weasel's eyes are the same color as the green screen, which causes his eye color to change depending on what background is being used. Considering the regular Feeding the Trolls backgrounds usually have fire in them, this can lead to some interesting results.
** The scoreboard in 50 Shades of Stupid runs into this a few times. There are at least two instances where the scores aren't displayed and when Weasel shows the source article for example 38, the scores are accidentally overlaid onto the article.
