History YMMV / BartBaker

* TheWoobie: LetsPlay/{{Mark|iplier}}. He just wanted his family to have a nice Christmas. [[spoiler:But Meghan gives his son an HP tablet, resulting in the kid yelling at him for not getting him an iPad and his wife then telling him she wants a divorce.]]

[[WebVideo/BartBaker Link to the main page]]

* CriticalResearchFailure: Meghan Trainor's "Lips Are Movin" isn't a misandrist song saying all men ever do is lie, it's just about a cheating boyfriend. In the song proper, it's still a mean generalization, and Bart may have just exaggerated it for comedy.
** Bart's version of Meghan Trainor always portrays the one or two problematic lines in the song as the entire message [[RuleOfFunny for humorous purposes]]. In "All About That Bass" he made the entire song about the lines "Go ahead and tell them skinny bitches that" and "She told me boys like a little more booty to hold at night." In this one the entire song is about "If your lips are movin' then you're lying, lying, lying, baby." Both of these have a purpose in the original song and are taken out of context to make it funnier.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: After the "Anaconda" parody [[http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-intersect/wp/2014/09/17/there-is-nothing-funny-or-smart-about-that-viral-nicki-minaj-parody-video/ caught]] [[http://www.styleite.com/news/white-dude-bart-baker-makes-disturbing-parody-of-nicki-minajs-anaconda/ heat]] on calls of misogyny, his parody of "Booty" could be seen as one, as it focuses less on the physical through SlutShaming and more on other stuff (contributing to the overuse of StuffyOldSongsAboutTheButtocks, pushing the Unfortunate Implications that AllWomenAreLustful and only care about their butts, and pointing out just how shallow someone would have to be to care that much about their butt).
** Bart recieved hate comments for use of [[{{Blackface}} makeup to make his skin appear darker]] in "Bound 2". The next parody with a black guy (Dark Horse) he cast (actually black) [=KingBach=] in the role.

* HarsherInHindsight: In the "Stupid Hoe" parody, Nicki Minaj (played by [[DirtyOldMan Jetset Hudson]]) says that "this song's so bad, it's giving me a heart attack." He died not long after. Take a guess what of.

** In the "Sorry" parody, [[Film/TheForceAwakens Kylo Ren]] shows up and is treated as fairly serious (as much as you can get with him dancing) in contrast to the immature and whiny Justin Bieber... except tghis was before the film was released and was known Kylo would be very similar.

* HilariousInHindsight: The Taylor Swift parodies make her out to be a psycho who wants to torment her exes. Then she released "Blank Space", an ironic parody of these jokes and a TakeThat to people interpreting her as such. Bart then parodied that song, and it claimed that [[MindScrew Taylor Swift, played by Bart Baker, copied Bart Baker playing Taylor Swift]]. Getting a headache from that?

* UncannyValley: In general, whenever Bart dresses as a female singer, it is...unsettling, to say the least. Special mention goes to Music/IggyAzalea in "Booty." [[UncannyValleyMakeup Bart-as-Iggy's overly-pale makeup]] and the bright lights in that particular video did not help matters much.

* ShockingSwerve: Played for laughs like when Iggy Azalea [[spoiler:is revealed to be Nicki Minaj]].
** Also played for laughs in his parody for "Problem", in which Ariana Grande is replaced by Ariana Venti. BigSean angrily rants that swapping the one bitch out for a new one was just incredibly stupid.
** And yet again in "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)", where Silento is revealed to be [[spoiler:Jared Fogle]].

* FunnyAneurysmMoment:

** In the Stupid Hoe parody, [[Music/NickiMinaj "Tranny Minaj"]] (played by Jet Set Hudson) claims that "This song's so bad, it's giving me a heart attack." [[HarsherInHindsight Guess how Jetset Hudson died.]]

** The ''Worth It'' parody ends with Fifth Harmony going bankrupt after investing in UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump. Fast forward two years.

** Unfortunately though, he really can't act.

* SeasonalRot: While Bart's videos are still great, his newer videos are getting less and less interesting than his older ones. Even some of his parodies are deemed inferior than how WebVideo/TheKeyOfAwesome does it, most notably Four Five Seconds.

** It's joked throughout the whole ''Blurred Lines'' parody that Music/Robin Thicke is a rapist who takes advantage of women and uses fake excuses to avoid getting arrested. Eight years later and Creator/Emily Ratajkowski revealed that she was groped by a coked out Robin on the set of the music video.

* MemeticMutation: That fat crossdressing old man in the "California Gurls" parody.

** "Wrecking Ball" ends with Bart-as-Miley twerking in the middle of a construction site, [[spoiler: right before getting nailed with a literal wrecking ball]]. It's obvious that Bart's not really on the set, since he doesn't have any shadow for that shot.

* {{Squick}}: [[GrossoutShow A lot of moments in his parodies]], along with a heaping dose of [[NauseaFuel/BartBaker Nausea Fuel]].

** In the ''It's Everyday Bro'' parody, the lines the Martinez Twins sing ended up being coincidentally accurate when in November 2017, the ''real'' Martinez Twins left Team 10, revealing the exact same sentiment (minus the "he burned our visas and is forcing us to work for him" part).
* FateWorseThanDeath: Watching Tyler Perry is this based on how Taylor's exes begged for death when she told them they were all watching it.

* MoralEventHorizon: You can expect a "He has gone way too far this time" comment on almost every video he does.
