YMMV / Undertaker Freak 1127

Go To

  • Anvilicious: A few of his rants are pretty long-winded in this department.
  • Bizarro Episode: The video about the enigmatic "confidential search results" message on YouTube. Doubles as a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment.
    • Another example is "How to Make a Snow Penis". The video is just as the title suggests: John showing himself making a penis-shaped drawing in a pile of snow. Nothing else. No one-liner.
    • John's fond of this, as another moment occurs in a newer video of his. Unlike the other videos, it opens with his girlfriend, who ends being ushered out of the room by John before he continues with the video. She doesn't say a word, and it's never alluded to again.
  • Designated Hero: John gets this often. He revels in Brutal Honesty with no shame. This is great if you're a fan of his or if you consider his "brutal honesty" to be completely truthful until you consider some of his actions, i.e. friendships he's ruined for no reason other than being in a bad mood that particular day. Some find his rants needlessly hostile or intolerable due to John's approach to ranting. This usually nets him brief controversy. The most oft-cited example is his "war" against Cregan 4584. It's also worth mentioning that John can't really take Brutal Honesty himself, as he's blocked people for it, making him a hypocrite who cannot take what he dishes out. He's also not very good boyfriend material either, since at one point, he was leeching off his girlfriend for a while.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: On April 25th, 2015, John made a video showing his contempt for Jared Fogle. Several months later, Fogle's whole career is destroyed when he's charged with possession of child pornography.
  • Like You Would Really Do It: Every time John uploads some sappy, emotional video about how YouTube sucks and how he's going to enjoy his life offline, he inevitably comes back to YouTube, reactivates his account and puts his videos back online.
  • Narm: John's attempts at showing his disdain for the Trump administration. John literally moved out of America, moved to Finland and changed his Twitter handle to "Former American." Naturally, this became a field day for his detractors who already find John childish as a default.
  • Never Live It Down: The leaks of John's nudes, which were originally sent to his then girlfriend at the time. Even to this day, he has detractors who refer to him as "Johnny Bentdick" out of spite.
  • "Stop Having Fun" Guys: John's main reason for criticizing Pokemon Go! and its players.
  • Tear Jerker: The video "Rest In Peace, Sara".
  • Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Due to John's caustic personality, it can be a little hard to feel sorry for the guy. In the opinion of several of John's critics, he comes across as a quote, "self righteous, pseudo-intellectual and holier-than-thou douchebag who blocks anybody who disagrees with him."
    • His current whining about how awful Finland is John's preference for whining over fixing his lot in life in a nutshell. He hates Finland, he's got nothing keeping them there since his wife left him, yet he's not doing anything about it.
  • Wangst: His depression period throughout 2013 can be seen as this depending on how sympathetic you are.
