Grew up making pretty funny wacky comics and cartoons
Eventually gets noticed and has his own show, massive success both critically and in popularity
Over time it becomes increasingly clear it's an outlet for his virtue signaling
Fame and ego will eventually get to his head and work on vanity projects that end up ranging from lukewarm to dogshit
Cue flood of posts from 2020 immigrants saying this thread was made by one specific diaperfag/scat fetishist/porn addict who’s mad at Zach and imagining that he said things he’s literally actually said, like porn is bad and video games are unhealthy and people with weird fetishes are freaks (these are quotes from a guy who’s seen by the mainstream as representing the internet)
It’s Channel Zero 2.0
can he sing tho?
I don't think he believes in anything, so I don't know what virtue he's going to signal.
>Over time it becomes increasingly clear it's an outlet for his virtue signaling
If you think they're taking some sort of stance in the show you're a retard. It's all just jokes at other characters' expenses and making them look dumber than they seem. Like the devil having his own vices and the edgy people not being edgy. These are basic ass jokes, I don't know why people feel the need to make something out of nothing. There's plenty of shit you can just focus on instead.
Zach is just TRUE CHAOTIC NEUTRAL LORD OF CHAOS XD even though he only parrots extreme Christian nofapper talking points and is aggressively normative
Truly an agent of the weird and eccentric
zach says through a character who supposed to be a caricature of himself that may be vaping and enjoying short-term dopamine cycles could be detrimental to your brain’s health.
HE ONLY PARROTS EXTREME CHRISTIAN NOFAPPER TALKING POINTS AND IS AGGRESSIVELY NORMATIVE
I just don't see Zach writing/directing a shitty live action movie JUST to make out with Charlize Theron.
porn is bad and video games are unhealthy and people with weird fetishes are freaks
This is objectively true, though.
Michael Cusack would likely fit the bill more as the new Seth MacFarlene with how many shows he's been able to get greenlit, he can even sing.
He works on like one 6 episode season every 5 years, I don't think this guy has the drive to work on anything else.
So let me clarify, because I’m tired of hearing about this, and it’s been three years since I made that infographic, but people still can’t penetrate it beyond the absolute most surface level. I don’t vape. I’m not fat and I’m not dependent on media. I don’t actually even eat that much, and I’m asexual, so I don’t watch anything remotely close to the type of porn Chris and Zach like. I don’t like scat or diapers. Zach’s abusive opinions on media addiction, porn, and all the pseudoscientific DSM buzzwords he uses piss me off because it’s shrink nonsense that’s blatantly armed against nonconformist people and the kind of people that supposedly use this site. There is no such thing as a ‘short-term dopamine loop’ and your happiness is not tied to chemicals that can be expended by doing too much of the stuff the bullies that run the world don’t like. Zach knows this and it’s purely an act of malice, because he’s a normalfag cunt just doing what normalfags do and trying to destroy things they don’t understand.
Smiling friends created a weird amount of seethe out of nothing. It feels like people just heard a select few words and their pavlovian dog response commanded them to hate it regardless of the context.
Ok fattie.
you just dislike thing because you WANT to, asshole
Well...do you want to?
No! I was genuinely a big fan of Zach for most of last decade. I loved his cartoons and Hellbenders was a big influence on my sense of humor. I felt totally betrayed by his recent jokes on the show and on SF, got disappointed and moved on. It was my mistake for investing in a normal person to begin with.
Please shut the fuck up for ONCE in your miserable life you really are unbearable.
The schizo has a personal vendetta with the e-celeb!
I felt totally betrayed by his recent jokes
This guy is actually going to use language like "I FELT PERSONALLY BETRAYED" and expect to be treated seriously.
I can see some parallels with smiling friends referencing old internet stuff and family guy referencing 70s sitcoms.

When are we gonna talk about MICHAEL for a change? Smiling Friends is comes from two creators you know
THE VOID
i feel bad for michael cusack, that he kinda lives in zach's shadow in regards to this show. but i only knew of psychicpebbles as a kid. didn't find about about cusack until 2020 when the smiling friends pilot came out
I knew him from his animation channel at around the same time as psychicpebbles so I guess the algorithm was unkind to you or something
Used to listen to No Cure for Cancer on repeat for hours
Could do that entire show from memory
Had an existential crisis when I found out he was just imitating someone else.
Zach has been on Oneyplays since completing SM season 2 and his sense of humor is just as unhinged as it's always been. I think your post is fake.
Industrycuck thread?
I don’t actually even eat that much, and I’m asexual
Stopped reading there lmao
It pissed me off how Vinny not only made a cameo in a Yolo episode, but fucking wrote an original song for it, and all anyone had to say was "Cool, one step closer to being on smiling friends"
asexuality out of nowhere
Jesus Christ, is DuelGundam2099 posting on Anon Babble now?
genuinely funny how much him saying "if all you can get off to is scat, then you should stop jerking off for a while to let yourself reset" set off a schizo so badly
Schizo thread.
This idea that Dennis Leary stole his entire act from Bill Hicks comes across as retroactive sour grapes because they're really not as similar as everyone makes them out to be.
youtu.be
youtu.be
Actually compare the two. Leary is way more energetic and hyperactive on stage than Bill Hicks. But apparently Hicks thinks he has a trademark over smoking a cigarette on stage and acting cynical. And now that Hicks is dead we all have to pretend he was all some underrated genius because that's what happens when you die young.
This is some very esoteric termally-online shit from the perspective of someone who has no idea who it's referring to
That isn't healthy to be fixating on random anonymous posters like that
You should start collecting shells at the beach or catalogueing the bird calls you hear outside in the morning or something like that, it would be a better use of your time
obsessive freaks
esoteric termally-online shit
You mean like this?
Fuck off. Focus on people who ACTUALLY earned their cancellation but it hasnt been done yet.
It seems like the episode where they make fun of zoomers constanting vaping, ordering doordash, and chasing short term dopamine rushes hit too close to home.
That along with the religious overtones of the episode ended up creating a lot of hatred by some atheistic autists that will hate the show forever now. They feel PERSONALLY attacked and instead of reflecting on themselves and their bad habits they'd rather shitpost on Anon Babble for the rest of their lives about how terrible the show is and how it's secretly crypto-Christiofascist and puritan anti-porn or whatever buzzwords they think up to hate on it for offending them.
Rent free
Idk who you're talking about and I'm happier for it
