''Your Painfully Average Self Insert FNF Mod'' (aka ''Vs. [=TheMaskedChris=]) is a VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin GameMod made by [=TheMaskedChris=]. As the title suggests, the mod pits Boyfriend against Chris himself in a self-insert mod with the bonus of drenching itself in layers upon layers of SelfDeprecation and TakeThat that makes VideoGame/LiterallyEveryFNFModEver look like a serious attempt.

----
* BaitAndSwitch: When "Fulmination" begins, Chris' side has the scroll speed amped up far beyond what most would find acceptable. Thankfully, Boyfriend's side has a much lower scroll speed in comparison, though that doesn't stop the song from being NintendoHard.
* CameraPerspectiveSwitch: Halfway through "Fulmination", Chris uses his powers to flip the screen to a first-person perspective.
* EveryoneHasStandards: In a somewhat meta example, despite applying SelfDeprecation to every aspect of the mod, Chris can't bring himself to mock the charting (which was done by Cerbera) or draw bad sprites for himself.
* ExpressiveMask: The zipper on Chris' face mask functions as a mouth, and the design on it changes with every pose.
* GoneHorriblyRight: Meta example; Chris in-universe is trying to make the songs as average and boring as he can, but with 3 talented composers working on the soundtrack, this obviously fails. [[LampshadedTrope Lampshaded]] in the cutscene before "Funnies", when Chris uses the "unfunny meme song" to make up for the quality of "Just Me".
* InterfaceScrew: Gameplay-wise, this is the mod's primary feature. Every song except for "Funk Trio" has Chris mess around with the UI constantly, rotating it around and swapping the placements of the player's notes.
* PowerLimiter: Chris takes off his face mask in "Fulmination", causing light to burst from his mouth and transforming him into the obligatory TurnsRed phase 3.
* ProductPlacement:
** Chris takes the time to plug [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChaHMuFyTKrVnCZpQelxhDQ his YouTube channel]] in the cutscene before "Funnies", but doesn't manage to get all the way through before the song starts.
** According to the release trailer and showcase video, the mod itself is "sponsored" by Chris' recently-released [[VideoGame/StarlightMayhem CJ plushie]]. There's even a button for it added to the main menu.
* SelfDeprecation: The mod literally calls itself "painfully average", and the main plot revolves around Chris deliberately trying to make his mod as low-effort and run-of-the-mill as possible. Being the man behind VideoGame/StarlightMayhem and [[VideoGame/WiiFunkin Vs. Eteled]], of course, he has to literally go down a list of necessary traits to do this. As a bonus, he also calls himself the physical embodiment of bad voice acting.
* ShoutOut: Several other FNF mods are namedropped when Chris discusses what his mod needs to have.
** Chris briefly puts on a [[VideoGame/LiterallyEveryFNFModEver Ron mask]] in the cutscene before "Funnies", but Boyfriend tells him to take it off, as animating it would add effort and commit copyright infringement on ''Vs. Bob''.
*** "Funnies" itself is also very similar in concept to "Little Man", [[VideoGame/VsBobAndBosip "Jump Out", and "Ronald McDonald Slide"]], being a song that incorporates numerous memes at a rapid-fire pace (though "Funnies" also takes the time to make them match with the song's tempo).
** Also in the cutscene before "Funnies", Boyfriend starts to sing a verse of LetsPlay/{{Dream}}'s "Mask". Chris responds by [[DisproportionateRetribution shooting Boyfriend]], telling him not to attract Dream stans.
** When describing the mandatory TurnsRed phase 3, Chris directly calls the trend a [[VideoGame/VsWhitty "Ballistic"]] ripoff.
** "Genocide" is a song ripped straight from VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend, something Chris is 100% ready to lampshade.
* SignatureHeadgear: Chris' persona is never seen without his face mask, which this mod reveals can [[ExpressiveMask change expressions]] and is a PowerLimiter.
* StylisticSuck: In-universe, Chris deliberately wants his mod to be as painfully mediocre as possible to mimic other self-insert FNF mods. In a meta sense...well, at least the background is a solid black plane.
* TakeThat: The entire point of the mod is to mercilessly mock the stereotypical low-effort self-insert FNF mod. The list Chris goes down in the cutscene before "Just Me" includes having a lazy background, average songs, bad charting, bad sprites, bad voice acting, an unfunny meme song, a TurnsRed phase 3, and a bonus song that's just a cover of another popular FNF song.
* TurnsRed: [[LampshadedTrope Lampshaded]] and mocked in the cutscene before "Fulmination" when Chris realizes he needs an angry third phase to fulfill the average self-insert mod and takes off his signature mask, transforming into an all-black version of himself with claws and a glowing yellow mouth.
