Right censor word or not, who the [tornado fang] is Fred? I'm talking about the ADHD inflicted moron with a high-pitched squeal and some how has over a million subscribers and even got an appearance on a freakin' TV show (granted it was on Nickelodeon, it's still a tv show). WHY is this guy so freakin' popular to a point where he got on a TV show, and even selling t-shirts with his 'name' on it? Just WHAT is it about this guy that people love? I can't stand listening to him for a freakin' minute because it's so freaking annoying and stupid. Is there some kind of twist in each video? Some deep meaning with a since of profound wisdom near the end that's hinted merely subtly and upon realizing it, is equal to obtaining nirvana? Or is the internet becoming stupider (and remember, the current level of stupidity on the internet is the base level, thus meaning that the level is the norm) and people somehow find this guy funny? I know the phrase "to each his own" and that some people may find him funny while others don't, but this is really just pushing the envelope.

Could you at least link one of his videos so that we know who the hell you're talking about?

It'd at least give us to resent him if he is as horrible as your described.

That's what I want to know. He's somehow gotten all this stuff from talking with a high-pitched squeal for 3-5 minutes in every freakin' video on YouTube for who knows how long. I can't stand watching him for long enough to actually get a good idea as to what the hell he's about.

He doesn't seem to keep videos up for more than a year for whatever reason, so anything possible explanation as to what the [tornado fang] is going on can't be found in the first 'episode'.

Again for the record, I'm just wanting to know just why the hell people consider him funny. I personally find him to be completely moronic, but others who could explain this may change my opinion about it.

Insane crazy immaturity does seem to win a lot of internets lately.
Twisted comedy that wins millions of hearts.
It's called no-brain humor and everyone on youtube seem to like it.
It's the next big hit on internets. Stupidity on internet is, like, so popular.

tl;dr... ooooooh, THAT Fred...

Oh, don't forget shows like [Bumpity-Boom!].

Wow, you're right.

People are [tornado fang]ing morons. Plain and simple.

Oh, that retard. I can't see why people like him. You should watch WasteTimeChasingCars parodies of him.

Just because it's popular, doesn't mean it and it's fans aren't retarded.

Just look at Twilight.

VixyNyan · **Reply #9 on:** April 17, 2009, 03:16:53 AM

That's what I mean. These videos are so retarded.

I'd make some sort of witty remark about some other stupid thing, but the fact that I'd be comparing it to Fred would make it look like a shiny golden god amongst the best of the best.

I'll admit, if the videos were down to about 30 seconds or something, it'd be funnier, but it's the knowing fact that it drags on for more than 3 minutes and is essentially the same thing over and over and over kills it in so many different ways. It's an ongoing punch-line that forgot to get it's entrance and doesn't want to leave, and instead stays on stage and prevents the other jokes from going on.

Well, I don't find him that bad honestly, I'm not one of the guys that go "ZOMG FRED!" though. Then again, I'm one of those guys that almost never hate anything.

Using his mom's camera, a lonely six year old named Fred starts posting videos to a YouTube channel.

That's not an explanation? >.>

I'm sure that's the point.

Not for the punchline, and if it is, it's not a very good explanation.

Even the guy who did the trailer for it sounded constipated during the end of the trailer. And Rock, you. me. RP. now. I like where this thread is going.

DZ needs to find a forum plugin so an option for the image comes up when making a post since there is face palm material quite often.
