* HePannedItNowHeSucks: Critikal gained himself some animosity from the ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' fandom when he watched the clip of [[spoiler:Ruby Rose having her breakdown]] despite having absolutely no context to it and only coming back to it due to the memes (specifically the ones of Homophobic Ruby) caused by it. The fact that he goes on to bring up Creator/MontyOum’s name to attack the show and the creators and saying [[SeasonalRot "whatever's become of this show is awful"]] (a big BerserkButton for the fandom) only worsen the ire since most detractors do just that.

** One of the memes he had created is him exclaiming "He's pulling his cock out!", originating from him reacting to a gamer rage compilation where he sees a competitive player taking off his belt and commenting "imagine he just flops his meat on the table". A couple of years later, and he winds up reporting on news regarding ''exactly'' that when fellow [=YouTuber=], [=IShowSpeed=], did exactly that ''on accident''.

Creator/RainnWilson, Dwight's actor, had played a vigilante in the movie ''Film/{{Super}}'', though his character's costume is ''way'' more professional in comparison.

** Hilariously, Charlie thought the [[https://youtube.com/channel/UCJj91yPSruvqylY9WEsQCiw Arcade Craniacs]] channel was unironic with its 3 AM challenge videos. Even after being told otherwise on streams, [[IRejectYourReality he refuses to believe otherwise]].
** In his “[[https://youtu.be/0B2QzVZN6YA How Star Wars Ruined a Kid’s Entire Life]]” video, the thumbnail depicts an evil silhouette of WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse puppeteering the ''Franchise/StarWars'' logo. Aside from Disney’s controversial treatment of the franchise given visual reference, it has nothing to do with the video. Considering the person who is given subject towards, ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' as well as the rest of the franchise was still under Creator/TwentiethCenturyStudios when it all began, long before both ''Star Wars'' and its former parent company were bought out by Disney. Basically, the thumbnail insinuates Disney’s involvement with the CreatorBreakdown of the former child actor but there is no connection, to the point Disney was not even given mention in the video which makes the thumbnail choice even more bizarre. Aside from an easy TakeThat on Charlie’s and the thumbnail’s artist’s ends.
