Narm / Dhar Mann

Go To

  • Dhar Mann's frequent reliance on saccharine narration and random — sometimes unnecessary — flashbacks to tell his stories has roundly been mocked as ridiculously cheesy. The same is applicable the frequency with which his videos depict situations that would never transpire (or at least not in such an on-the-nose manner) with characters that speak and act in ways no human being actually would.
  • A lot of the villains' performances are so over the top and exaggerated that it gets really hard to take seriously sometimes. Especially when they break out in an Evil Laugh and/or have a complete Heel–Face Turn in the blink of an eye.
  • The frequency with which Dhar Mann names his aggressively judgmental female bully/bigot characters "Karen." It's an obvious nod to the meme and only adds to the painful unsubtlety that plagues most of his videos.
  • At that, some of the insults characters call one another are just plain silly. One such example is a teenager calling a student janitor "Jordan the Janitor" in "School Janitor Shamed by Mean Girls." It's made all the ridiculous by how she emphasizes it as if she really put a lot of thought into such an easy insult, on top of her friend laughing as if it was also the funniest joke ever made at someone else's expense.
  • From "Female Cop Humiliated by Male Cop", the male cop being such a rabid misogynist in every single one of his interactions with the female cop, even while chasing after a criminal, is ridiculous enough. But the video is really topped off by this line near the end: “I can’t believe you guys bagged Ronnie the Robber.” Yes, apparently an infamous robber that’s been on the loose for months has a title you’d expect from a cheesy kids' show villain. Funnily enough, Ronnie gets in a couple good zingers at the male cop while behind bars.
  • The husband from "Wife Gives Husband Birthday Gift"'s yelling is so over-the-top that the microphone was peaking while he talked, and the wife's overdramatic reminder of what she does around the house for him makes the whole thing hilarious.
  • "Protester Wants to Fire All Cops" is almost darkly comedic in its egregiously out-of-touch and strawmen-heavy depiction of the Black Lives Matter Movement and its complexities, between the titular protester's arguments against the police not extending beyond "all cops are bad" and the police officer who changes her mind being ridiculously saintly to hammer the point home.
  • Preview pictures occasionally feature completely overexaggerated expressions or photoshopped facial features like overexposed whites in the eyes (or both), potentially or completely watering down the dramatic tones for the video.
