History Fridge / StampysLovelyWorld

[[folder:FridgeBrilliance]]

* At first, the fact that Stampy is still fighting Hit The Target and Veeva Dash may seem like a case of Fridge Logic -- for all its oddities, the SLW is still a Minecraft world, so [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim why doesn't Stampy just ban them?]] But after rewatching certain episodes such as "Revelation", "Helpless", and "Uninvited Guests", it starts to make more sense as to why -- for all his antagonism with the two of them, he's still incredibly supportive whenever it appears they've made a HeelFaceTurn, whether it's his joy at having HTT back as a friend again, him offering to let Veeva join him and the other Helpers, or accepting what he believes to be a Christmas truce without a second thought. Connecting that back to his tolerance of them staying in his world, and it becomes clear that he's not letting them stay out of [[TooDumbToLive idiocy]], he's letting them stay because he hopes they'll make a legitimate HeelFaceTurn and become Helpers again, and if he banned them that would never happen.

* After Veeva Dash joined forces with [=HitTheTarget=], attacks seem to have increased in frequency, with the average of a 30-episode gap going down to about 20 episodes, and the shortest gap being about 11 episodes (the villain-bots plan being an extension of the Polly-Bot plan). But the reasoning behind this increase in frequency makes perfect sense: [=HitTheTarget=] now has double the manpower and brainpower on his side, of course they would be able to churn out evil schemes at a higher frequency.

* After dying in Episode 184, "Clone Calamity", the deceased Stampy Cat Clone has never returned, thus surmising that he had been KilledOffForReal, even though there is a respawn mechanism in the World; but on second thought, the clone of a player wouldn't classify as a player in-universe (as there would be no external force controlling them) but an NPC who looks like the player, i.e. a mob, which -- other than the Ender Dragon -- cannot be respawned and will die for good if/when they are killed.

-->'''Stampy:''' Barnaby didn't want t-to leave my room- ''(laughs)'' Seeing as, uh- I guess he's still a little bit... uh, scared about what happened with uh, You-Know-Who, uh, recently. Uh, yeah, I guess he wanted to spend the night in my bedroom and I had no problem with that whatsoever...

* In Episode 472, "Gate Crashers", Stampy [[ImpersonationGambit disguises himself as Veeva Dash]] to try to save his dogs and Helpers... and [=HitTheTarget=] somehow ''falls for it''. Granted, the costume she was wearing isn't defined by gender and hides the wearer's face, but in-universe, he had to fake her voice as well, among other things; and [=HitTheTarget=] was ''dating'' Veeva Dash yet didn't recognize [[AttractiveBentGender an imposter]] [[DisguisedInDrag of her]] until [[ConfrontingYourImposter she herself shows up]]. When taken to the logical extreme... ''[[FoeYayShipping yeah]]''.
* Despite the direness of the situation Episode 526, "Saving the World", considering that Hit The Target was speaking through Stampy's voice the whole time, the entire TheReasonYouSuckSpeech could be perceived as Stampy's take on a [[SelfDeprecation "Roast Yourself challenge"]], especially from a {{meta}} perspective.

* In the episodes leading up to Episode 719, "I Won", Veeva Dash creates a type of Magic Campfire which produces fumes that induce memory loss to the point of IdentityAmnesia in extreme cases. For those who watch the ''WebVideo/DreamSMP'', the powers of the Campfires are arguably comparable to [[GeniusLoci the Inbetween dimension]] from ''Tales From the SMP'', which ultimately causes time travellers who use it as a hub world to experience gradual memory loss and eventually LossOfIdentity until they are doomed to traverse the dimension forever. What makes this scary? The Inbetween is a supernatural dimension created by a god. ''Veeva Dash, as far as we know, [[BadassNormal is entirely human]].''
** In contrast to ''Tales From the SMP'', where the LossOfIdentity is gradual and uncontrollable, and its effects are only described, in the ''[[IronicName Lovely World]]'', it can be ''recreated by human hands''. With ''immediate'' effects. That '''''occur explicitly on screen'''''. Yeah, even if it's temporary at the end of the day, the ''Lovely World'' can surpass ''[[CrapsackWorld the Dream SMP]]'' in terms of how dark it can get... and that's saying something, since the Dream SMP covers some ''very'' heavy topics extensively (including mental health, abuse, [[DrivenToSuicide suicide]], etc.) and has a bit of a reputation of inducing the TooBleakStoppedCaring reaction from viewers.

* In Sqaishey's 200,000 subscribers song, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm_fyxu9oV4 [=FunBot=] 200,000]]", they place two of the eponymous robots -- which then proceeded to [[StuffBlowingUp blow everything and everyone up in the video]] -- in Stampy's world, presumably his Lovely World. Considering that the Lovely World and WebVideo/FeatherAdventures are connected in some way[[note]]since Stampy appeared in several of Sqaishey's other songs, such as "Quack If You Wanna" -- where Stampy and his Lovely World are directly mentioned in the song and Stampy apparently [[FunnyBackgroundEvent dug a hole]] [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments to get to Sqaishey]] -- and "Jungle"[[/note]], it means that it was entirely possible that the [=FunBots=] blew up a good chunk of the Lovely World off-screen. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Thanks a lot, Sqaishey]]. And as mentioned before, since one of Stampy's worst fears is losing his World... ''yikes''.

[[folder:Fridge Tear Jerker]]
* Stampy never bothered to remove the [[{{Jerkass}} mean]] signs that Hit The Target left over his bed, reading "loser" with an arrow pointing down at the occupant of the bed (usually Stampy), at least, before he had to cut down the number of signs in his World for the Love Garden. [[WeUsedToBeFriends Did he still remember the early days, even if they aren't mentioned?]]

* Episode 458, "Secret Stories", is a [[HalloweenEpisode Halloween episode]] highlighting three parts of Lovely World lore that haven't been looked at before. One of these is Fred the Friendly Enderman's backstory -- he used to terrorize and steal from a small village until a young woman taught him how it felt to have your most prized possesions taken from you, at which point [[HeelFaceTurn he renounced his old ways and became a friend to all in the village]]. It's a sweet story...until one remembers that Stampy specifically states that the story happened long before he arrived in the SLW. Not only that, but there's no sign of the village ''anywhere'' in the main Lovely World, unless it's supposed to be the one from "Dangerous Day"[[note]]which seems unlikely, given the visual contrasts and the amount of time between the two episodes[[/note]]. So either Stampy was exaggerating about how long ago the story took place and the village is somewhere off-screen/the one in "Dangerous Day", or Endermen are immortal/long-lived, the village ruins deteriorated over time, and Fred ''outlived the first friends he ever made''.
* In Episode 526, "Saving the World", after chasing HTT away, Stampy asks his Helpers if they were happy working with him in his Lovely World. Despite his relatively upbeat tone, the fact that he felt this has to be done at all implies HTT might have hit a sore spot, and brings up the question of how much Stampy actually ''believed'' the words of his ArchNemesis who was trying to discredit him in front of millions of people[[note]]perhaps he was afraid of actually ''being'' the tyrant HTT speaks of?[[/note]] and how much he took the accusations to heart… and then ''that'' brings up the matter of [[HeroicSelfDeprecation his self-esteem, insecurities and other pressing matters]].
