1* BizarroEpisode: Whatever made Alex create [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xg6KXAfCbE this video,]] we may be better off not knowing.
2* CrossesTheLineTwice: The "I HATE FUNKO POP VINYLS" video has IHE talking about a figure of Princess Diana. He then shows the unboxed figure, when complaining about the Funko Pop's lack of a mouth. So he (crudely) draws a smile on her with a marker and says "Don't worry Princess, you can smile now! [[BlackComedy You're in heaven!]]".
3* FridgeHorror: The "I HATE FUNKO POP VINYLS" video has IHE showing the figures for Princess Diana, [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Brian Griffin]] and [[Franchise/{{Cars}} Ramone]]. He claims that they're connected, which sounds like BlatantLies on first watch, [[spoiler:until one realizes that all three had a car-related death]]. Jesus Christ...
4* FriendlyFandoms: With [[WebVideo/YourMovieSucksDotOrg YMS]]. See YMS's [[YMMV/YourMovieSucksDotOrg YMMV page]] for further information.
5* HarsherInHindsight:
6** In his '''I HATE E3''' video, he says that Satoru Iwata has the charisma of a plank of wood, and he looks stiff and lifeless. A few weeks later, Satoru Iwata passed away to a bile duct tumor. Granted, he did leave an annotation later saying he does appreciate Mr. Iwata's work, and that he sends his respect out to him.
7** In his review of ''Cool Cat Saves the Kids,'' IHE concludes saying he wishes he could hate the movie more than just seeing it as SoBadItsGood. With that video leading to an infamous controversy with Derek Savage and a hiatus for the "Search for the Worst" series, [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor his wish may have been granted]].
8** In his review for ''Smosh: The Movie'', he says that, of the Smosh duo, Anthony is the weak link in terms of comedy, talent, and so on. A couple years later, Anthony left Smosh over feelings of being creatively stifled.
9* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments:
10** The dead celebrity segment of his "I Hated 2016" video, where he gives his [[SincerityMode sincere, genuine respect]] to Music/DavidBowie, Creator/CarrieFisher, all the celebrities who died, and last of all, his childhood dog Flossy. Also counts as a TearJerker.
11** His look at ''Film/WhoKilledCaptainAlex'', an independent, low budget Ugandan action movie, where he shows almost no anger or mocking towards it, but genuine respect for the cast and crew for making a film just to entertain others, even with the odds heavily against them due to living in the slums of a third-world country. He considers it the best film in The Search For The Worst, and even recommends supporting them by purchasing a DVD. His final comment regarding how the film was made despite all odds is rather inspiring, especially for would-be filmmakers:
12--->'''IHE:''' If you're someone who's been saying all their life, "Wow, I'd really love to make a movie," I mean, ''Who Killed Captain Alex'' really does highlight why you have absolutely no excuse not to just do it. If these people with no money, infrequent electricity, and ''barely any clean water'' can get a film made, then why can't... you?
13** Alex [[https://twitter.com/ihe_official/status/712593625708937216?lang=en receiving a message from the director of The Amazing Bulk]], a movie that Alex ripped to shreds in his review.
14** After reviewing the first ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}'' movie (which he was obsessed with as a child), Alex admits that he intended to review the movie to prove that he had "matured" enough to hate it - but instead of declaring it to be terrible, he instead realizes that it was actually kind of enjoyable to watch it again, and that he doesn't need to disown it. Sparing it a spot in his search for the worst.
15** In "The Most HATED [=YouTube=] Videos, he ends up giving likes to a few videos simply because he finds them harmless, including "Baby Shark".
16* HilariousInHindsight:
17** In his "I HATE DAMN DANIEL" video, he ends with saying, "I'll see you fuckers next week when DURR PLANT is a fucking meme." About a week later, it ''did'' become a meme. So much so that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXY6_x50xCA he made an "I HATE DURR PLANT" video]].
18** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMKwaNcI-II This video]] was made almost a year before IHE said it in one of his videos.
19** Zig-zagged with his ''Film/{{Suicide Squad|2016}}'' video, where he sarcastically says that DC is really off to the races with their "amazing" [[Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse cinematic universe]]. Then came ''Film/{{Wonder Woman|2017}}'', a movie that was universally acclaimed and got the DCEU back on track (though Alex himself thought it was the definition of SoOkayItsAverage). Then after ''Wonder Woman'', ''Film/{{Justice League|2017}}'' came along, which judging by its polarizing reception, fulfilled his quip. ''Then'' a year later, Alex saw ''Film/{{Aquaman|2018}}'' and, despite his general disain for the character, he enjoyed the movie and found it to be his favorite DCEU entry just because it was so dumb, yet so over-the-top entertaining.
20** A strange example in the case of his jokes at the expense of Kite Man; after several videos where Alex mocked the character for being a one-note, obviously stupid and ineffective supervillain, writer Creator/TomKing leaned into these exact traits to examine the tragedy of a character like Kite Man, in-universe, over the course of his run on Batman (particularly in the ''The War Of Jokes And Riddles'' storyline), to such effect that Kite Man is now considered an EnsembleDarkHorse in the DC fandom and has a (mostly) unironic cult following.
21** After Vine's closure was announced, Alex tweeted that he hopes "[[https://twitter.com/IHE_OFFICIAL/status/791689353999355904 a certain other horrible app dies prompt.ly]]". Two years after that, that same app closed down and merged into [=TikTok=], which Alex also did an IHE episode on.
22* MemeticMutation:
23** "Assoholic bitch", originating from his Comment Comeback video on I HATE SONIC THE HEDGEHOG.
24** '''DURR PLANT!''', [[DiscreditedMeme much to]] [[PoesLaw his chagrin.]] It experienced something of a revival when [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Piranha Plant]] was announced as ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'' DLC.
25** "Do 'I Hate Mars Bars'."
26** "If you hate everything, does that mean you hate yourself?"
27** [[Film/TheAmazingBulk "I hate dust."]]
28** [=ZooBoo=]. [[ForcedMeme He knew it was coming, though]].
29** [[Film/NotCool "Totes retar"]]
30** "Frozen Land" is now a synonym for "boring"
31* MisaimedFandom: As discussed in his video about fan suggestions, there's a small amount of people who don't realize the whole "Hate" part of his channel is meant to be an exaggeration, and want him to do videos on things they actually hate. While Alex usually just ignores these people, he is somewhat disturbed by comments that ask him to do videos about actual groups of people.
32* NightmareFuel: In Alex's review for ''Shark Exorcist'' he absolutely loses his shit over the sight of a woman running down a playground slide. He's so pissed that his voice actually changes from his usual DeadpanSnarker tone to something reminiscent of a volcano erupting.
33* OpinionMyopia: Not Alex himself, but his "Comment Comeback" videos are littered to the brim with this.
34* PopCulturalOsmosis: The piece of stock music he frequently uses in his videos, "Local Forecast - Elevator" by Music/KevinMacLeod, is commonly associated with him over its artist. This was lampshaded by IHE himself in his Search for the Worst review of ''Film/NotCool'', when the film uses that same piece of music in a supermarket scene.
35* TheScrappy: Kiteman and Aquaman. Some think that Alex’s sketches with them are not particularly funny and only works as [[{{Filler}} distraction]] for a video.
36* SeasonalRot: Some think his more recent content has started to lose the unique style Alex had, becoming more of a typical movie reviewer and straying away from his comedic rants about trends and less orthodox topics from the typical [=YouTuber=]. Similar viewers feel the same about his ''Search For the Worst'' series being more of a typical review channel and straying from its [=IMDb=] search and ranking premise.
37* {{Squick}}: When reviewing ''Sky Force'' in the "(NOT DISNEY) Collection", he frequently flashes (often badly drawn) pictures of anthro planes, usually in fetish-related situations, in order to squick out the audience.
38* TearJerker:
39** The ending of his "With Apologies To [[Film/CoolCatSavesTheKids Derek Savage]]" video, which ends in a quiet and solemn "I never wanted this".
40** His attitude regarding [=YouTube=] shutting down his channel for a small while. He just sounds like he's given up on YT being a workable system.
41** Once again, IHE got another copyright claim, this time on his "I HATE DAMN DANIEL" video, ''not even a week after he posted it''. Only this time, a company called [Merlin] CDLTD falsely put in the claim for no reason other than to get revenue from said video. And due to [=YouTube's=] abysmal system when it comes to handling claims, there's nothing IHE can do but wait, while the company steals his money. There's a reason why the video he posts about the situation is called "THIS ISN'T FUNNY ANYMORE." And then ''that'' video has since been taken down, as IHE is apparently not legally allowed to directly talk about this company. No reason has been given why.
42--->'''IHE:''' [[DespairEventHorizon Fuck... fuck it. Fuck this...]]
43** His video regarding his experience with stalking and the resulting anxiety problems that have come with said stalking. Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}} as IHE goes on to explain to anyone else suffering from anxiety that they [[YouAreNotAlone they are not alone]] and there are ways to manage.
