candy kong and donkey kong immediately break into a love song

"WHAT?! NO! YOU CAN'T SAY THAT!"

:allears:

The single best gag in the DK cartoon is in the episode where K. Rool sends a robotic duplicate of Candy Kong to shave off all of DK's hair because he thinks it gives him his Samson-like super strength, and when the robot shaves it all off it's revealed that DK's head is shaped like his hair:

There's an easy reason for that gag too; just retexturing the model's cheaper than a one-off "smooth-head" Donkey Kong.

It is a very good gag though. :allears:

His video itself even mentions it iirc.
I don't mind Saberspark, he isn't great but he also isn't terrible so I watch them once in a while. The whole thing where some NFT cartoon bro's tried going after him was pretty funny tbh.

He very much plays the whole thumbnail/title game though, can't blame him too much honestly.

On a completely different topic, if anyone is interested in synthesizers, Alex Ball makes some great videos about classic synths.
Here's a quick one about the Synclavier, and Michael Jackson
A bit longer one about the Prophet, and some full length documentaries about the history of Arp, Roland, and Korg


Edit. In light of today's release, sponsored by a terf audio company, gently caress this guy.

I respectfully disagree. I find exaggerated clickbait thumbnails to be irritating and the passage of time combined with increased exposure has only made that feeling more intense, not less. I understand that it is an effective strategy for increasing view count, and I do not fault online content creators for doing it, especially if they do it for a living. However, while I understand the reason behind it, I cannot help but feel irked when I see a crazy thumbnail face or weird hyper sentence fragment in the thumbnail. I think that is more than reasonable. Nevertheless, thank you for your input, and I hope you got something out of my rebuttal.

God, this :cripes: and it's always the first thing that pops up after I've watched the newest episode.

Highly recommend ToonrificTariq if you're looking for a good cartoon youtuber! He's got some good jokes too. Saberpark is...alright. he's not a pro-watch by any means but I'll check him out occasionally. But seriously, ToonrificTariq

I think I watched the Saberspark Tipping the Rift video, it's fine but one of those videos that mostly coasts by on how insane the subject material is.

It's also the only one that would justify a horny thumbnail tbh.

I like his stuff as well. TRJ can pull interesting stuff even out of the doldrums of The Simpsons' later episodes. I think his latest was on Superintendent Chalmers. Also he keeps his stuff at a snackable length which I appreciate.
