4	In the years that followed the ending of ''Series/ICarly'', Gibby's actor ventured through a number of different projects like a failed spinoff for his character, several appearances in a couple of shows and movies such as a recurring character in ''Series/TheGoldbergs'' and a brief stint as a DJ. Not completely satisfied, wishing to distance himself from his image as Gibby and also wishing to something that represents him, an idea sprung forth in the middle of 2016.

6	And thus, the nightmare known as Sadworld was born.

8	''[[https://youtube.com/channel/UC6ZIKcLUAdxTUOB9yIo3baw Sadworld]]'' is the brainchild of actor Noah Munck, best known for playing Gibby Gibson on Series/ICarly. Started in October 2016, it is a ''very'' surreal [=YouTube=] channel focused on comedic shorts and a metric fuckton of SensoryAbuse that it prides itself on in a strange form of self-expression by Munck. Noah's brother Ethan, who also played Gibby's brother Guppy, makes appearances in many of the videos alongside his older brother.

10	----
11	!!Sadworld includes examples of:
12
13	* ArcWords: “Jacked in” and variations.
14	* BlackComedy: Death threats and people dying in strange ways are common occurances in the videos.
15	* BloodSport: ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-URROC1o0c&t=52s MurderBall 2000]]''
16	--> Announcer: ''Listen, it is not a crime if it happened on live television.''
17	* BodyHorror: Several examples: A grotesque creature growing inside a woman, an EldritchAbomination that looks like a ball of skin, and a man eating a candy that causes his genitals to swell painfully are just a few examples out of many.
18	* ButtMonkey: Elijah's characters are often the subject of abuse, verbal and/or physical.
19	* CreepyDoll: Subverted with Doif - he looks fucking ugly, [[CoolToy but Elijah's character is certainly enthusiastic about the prospect of winning him]].
20	* CrapsackWorld: It seems that character in the Sadworld ‘verse is either hopelessly depressed or dead.
21	* Deliberate VHS Quality: One of Sadworld's newer videos 'Quack' was recorded with a camera from 2003 which gives it a very 2000's look
22	* DreadfulMusician: Yung Piss.
23	* EldritchAbomination: Recurring character Gorg, the flesh king. He appears as a grotesquely pixelated head connected to two arms.
24	* HumanoidAbomination: The Mayor in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HrCrOEIvTc Ghoulstar FM]]'', who is both worshiped and feared by the people of Ghoulstar. He looks like a diseased old man, but he's apparently a vicious monster that eats human flesh and can sense body heat.
25	--> Bobby Loss: ''The Mayor is back, praise be! Give a little shout, give a little cheer, and get the fuck inside. Lock your doors, turn your lights off, and sit in an ice bath to hide your heat signature because he is hungry.''
26	** Also, "Numbers Man" from ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-URROC1o0c&t=52s MurderBall 2000]]'', a white-haired old man that's surrounded by a swarm of numbers. His very presence is apparently a BrownNote.
27	* JerkAss: Recurring character Yung Piss, a soundcloud rapper/murderer that's obsessed with drinking urine.
28	* LargeHam: Even in this WorldOfHam, the screaming of Noah's characters stands out like black and white.
29	* MinimalistCast: Noah and Elijah are the only actors in all but several videos, and the number of actors throughout the whole series is less than a dozen.
30	* SensoryAbuse: '''Sadworld is likely a contender for being the godfather of this trope.''' Every video is filled with as much loud and discerning noises as Noah can fit into them, plagued by a psychedelic clusterfuck of vivid RGB colors in almost every frame and piss poor special effects.
31	* ShockJock: The two hosts in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HrCrOEIvTc Ghoulstar FM]]''
32	* SinkOrSwimMentor: Chive Pepperwink was a literal example until the FBI had his swim school shut down for letting too many kids die trying to swim.
33	* StylisticSuck: Noah tries his hardest to make the cinematography (and to a lesser extent the acting) in almost every Sadworld video as godawful as humanly possible before filling it to the brim with nightmarish saturation, aural agony and subpar green-screening and special effects.
34	* SuckECheeses: A man recaps his 21st birthday in the first skit of "Fantasies" in which his grandmother forced him into going to a children's pizzeria, force fed him pizza and then describing his futile attempt to tuck his gut back into his shirt when a hot waitress is bringing him cake.
