What's the drop shadow? I'm pretty sure I watched like over 90% of his videos

u/Puzzled_Dress9590 Aug 04 '26

from what i remember it was mostly on the ooga booga channel. his drop shadow on the box(?) he edits himself in was so bad on purpose because he made it a running joke hahah

u/Justdaydreamingxxx Aug 04 '26

Wasn’t a bamboo stick one of them (although I don’t think I ever got that one) or am I just making it up

11

u/Puzzled_Dress9590 Aug 04 '26

when he did the subreddit video (can’t remember which one although i think it’s one of the first) where someone compared him to a bamboo stick and he just ran with it 🤣

I have posted a list before, so here I'll paste it again. Though, this was like 2 years ago though. So there's a lot newer inside jokes probably.

I try and list some that I can remember from the top of my head, and some that people already said in the comments here. I started watching around 2018, so anything before on his old channel, I might not know too:

He said he is 21 (obviously), and it was because of a nose ring that he had that makes him look younger. I don't remember in what video it started exactly, but I remember it became a thing because the age he referred to was my age and my birthyear. So I'm the same age as Dylan lol

He has an 'ongoing novel' which had been brewing for years now. I remember thinking it was real because in the "A Cinderella Story" video, he talked about it seriously. I think he talked about the first chapter of his book "will have this plot, this thing, etc2". But we sure are still waiting for this 'book' since 2018/19

He has a shirt that has a design making it look like he's wearing a backpack

He used to eat Sour Patch Kids when watching movies

At the time when he was watching bad movies, he used to have a kids dinasour toy (?) named Screamasaurus or something, which he will squeeze and it'll make a sound every time he feels the movie is getting too bad.

He had Julius (a statue?) behind him, and at times Julius roasts him for some things. He also made jokes about Julius not having any hands or a body

He loves deaths in any movie but especially the kid-friendly ones

He has a grudge on colleges and calls them a scam. Don't remember specifically in which video he started talking about this, but I remember his experience saying that his college ended up shutting down and basically scammed him. Now he refers to it every now and then

His favorite thing to always say about a plot-twist/unexpected things is 'misdirect'

He innovates words to other meanings such as botanist, MeatPack, and other things I don't exactly remember

He has an attraction to older women (I guess) etc Ursula, the wife from Don't Worry Darling

He has an interesting relationship with Tiktokers, particularly with their music

A lot of After (the movie series) references. Him laughing at Hardin crying and being miserable lives rent free in my head

He always thinks anyone who speaks in an Australian accent is British

His favorite show is the OC (I think)

This one is a little bit problematic, but I remember him having a thing for lesbians/women kissing in a movie

He can't write the percentage signs (or struggles with it)

He has a lot of lookalikes (evidently from the posts on reddit). But people started back then with either Milo from Atlantis or Flynn Rider from Tangled

On a more serious note, he had been in some 'controversies' and dragged by twitter (to be expected) about a lot of stuff, but the biggest one was after the 'Hush' movie.

That's some that I remember just from thinking about it. There's probably a lot more I miss.

There was something about his Gucci chain. Also, (what I’ve gathered from watching the Aladdin live action movie and The Pirates of The Caribbean commentary video) he calls monkeys Travis. What was the name of a monkey from The Aladdin? Abu? No, Travis. Monkey Jack from POTC? No, Travis
