Lets All Agree to Never Be Creative Again

Despite being known for being surprisingly dark and nightmare-inducing seventy% of the time, Don't Hug Me I'grand Scared is packed with gut-busting moments of hilarity.

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared

• As soon equally Sketchbook starts singing, Xanthous Guy looks at them with a surprised expression with his oral fissure wide open.
• "I use my hair to express myself." "That sounds actually boring." "...I employ my hair to express myself!"
• Every time Sketchbook disses what Yellowish Guy tries to deem artistic.
  • "Light-green is not a creative color."
• But before the inventiveness explosion, Sketchbook gives them this advice:
• During the "Get Creative" scene, each of the puppets starts making an craft project. Yellow Guy puts effort in, gluing some glitter and popsicle sticks together, Reddish Guy starts playing with the glitter, and... Duck Guy merely puts down the letter "D" and stops.
  • Even better is that this one tiny, simple action is manifestly plenty creativity to trigger the Disney Acrid Sequence.
• Just look at Sketchbook'due south face up afterward the Disney Acid Sequence. They took it near as well as the audience did.

  Sketchbook: At present allow'due south all agree...to never exist creative over again. (falls over)

  • The fact that the puppets themselves seem to be quite embarrassed nearly how off the rails that went is also worth more a few chuckles.
• At the very offset scene of the video, a potted cactus is seen Flipping the Bird.
• During the showtime of the Disney Acid Sequence, Yellow Guy starts dancing like a madman... at which Duck Guy appears to shrug, while Reddish Guy stands in the corner taking information technology all in.
• The clarinet solo during the credits becomes increasingly off-key and screeching, until a voice can be heard laughing in the background and proverb "such a horrible audio."

Don't Hug Me I'grand Scared 2 - Fourth dimension

• "Meh! Meh! MEH! MEH! MEH! MEH! MEH! MEH! MEH!!! MEH!!!"
  • Yellow Guy's ears bleeding from information technology.
• Ruby's "I'one thousand and then done" mental attitude makes its debut in this episode. One such example is that, when they're going on a journeying through fourth dimension, he doesn't question the change in scenery at all, instead but telling the clock that they don't want to go through a journey through fourth dimension considering "We're going to miss our show". The fact that he sings completely off-key just shows how little he cares.
• "An old human died!" "Simply wait, a computer!"
• Duck Guy is making a belfry of cards, when Tony all of a sudden karate-chops it. Afterward Tony goes about reminding the puppets of their lesson, Yellow Guy slides in a quick Non Sequitur but to introduce Roy to the episode.

  Tony the Clock: HM! There'due south a time and a place for mucking around!
  Duck Guy: Like birthdays!
  Scarlet Guy: And camping!
  Yellow Guy: I'chiliad friends with my dad.
  Roy: (disconcerting Gonk stare, heavy breathing)

• "My dad is a com-co... computer!"
  • The sheer fact that, in his second appearance, Roy- ane of the near consistently ominous figures in the series, and who may or may non be the Big Bad of the whole setting- is browsing porn on the Internet.
• A brief moment during Tony'south first verse:

  Tony the Clock: ...the future doesn't exist!
  Duck Guy: (slightly disappointed) Oh.

• "Time is important, and I am a clock."
  • The fact that he says this immediately later being asked some deeper questions about fourth dimension; you can tell that he'southward desperately trying to avoid answering them.
• "Let's go on a journey / a journey through all fourth dimension / a fourth dimension that'south changing all the time / it's time to get to TI-ME!!"
  • Helps the line is sang in a vox that tin can merely be described as a drunk opera singer.
  • The vocalism crack on the concluding discussion is very hard to miss and is bound to make yous chuckle.
  • Subsequently which he calls Ruby stupid. Hilarious, since he just big-time fucked up the rhyme scheme.
• During the fish sequence:
• Ruddy Guy'due south reaction to the clock suddenly talking.

  "Wha... who is that...?"

  • Yellow Guy and Duck Guy meanwhile are looking at Tony with expressions that say "Aw crap, not again!"
• When Yellowish Guy lifts up a tree, Tony is seen scowling at him with his easily on his hips in the background.
• Tony proverb how important time is because it helps make pizza; the fact he pronounces "pizza" as "pizzer" is the icing on the cake.

  "Now you can see the importance of time; information technology helps u.s.a. make pizzer, it keeps things in line."

• At the end, instead of rotting like the others, Red Guy turns into an onetime man. Complete with a cane, according to this ◊ backside the scenes image.

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared three

• *Splat* Eugh! Pesky bee!
• After Yellow Guy runs off upset:
• Yellow Guy's reaction upon meeting the talking butterfly.

  [[Cloudcuckoolander A lilliputian baby dove!]]

• Near the start of Shrignold's vocal, he sings a bit about "harmony" and it'south spelled out in clouds in front of him. Only information technology's misspelled as "H-A-R-M-U-N-East-East".
• Xanthous Guy petting the gopher, who asks him to rub harder.
• "Oh expect, there he goes, flight through the heaven!"
• Duck Guy and Crimson Guy eating chicken instead of trying to find their friend.

  Red Guy: Perchance we should follow him, or we'll become left backside.
  Duck Guy: Yes, but there'south lots of chicken left, and I'd similar to eat the chicken.
  Reddish Guy: I'd also like to swallow the chicken. (takes out a pocketknife and fork) Let'southward do that instead.

  • The fact that the chicken is non only covered in bugs, but isn't even cooked.
  • If yous mind closely, the starting time couple lines go far sound like Red Guy and Duck Guy are still singing, but past the time Red Guy says "Let'due south do that instead", the rhythm has merely sort of died out.
  • Halfway through, the other ii puppets decide to get find the Yellow Guy. Duck Guy declares "isn't that what friends do?" before turning to the camera and admitting "and we have finished the chicken picnic...". The Crush after he says this makes information technology wait like he'due south asking the viewer for a meliorate idea.
    • The look on Duck Guy'due south face as he'due south staring at the photographic camera is a look of confused anger. Just wait at his eyes.
• The Tombstones titled Mrs. and Mr. Expressionless.
• "I love this tree and I love this stick and I love this issues..."
• The Lost Aesop at the end of the Michael song.

  Shrignold: You encounter? Everyone has a special one.
  (beat out)
  Rabbit Boy: Fifty-fifty Michael!

• Yellow Guy's look of full defoliation every bit the vocal turns from lovey-dovey to cult worship in the middle of a verse. Information technology'due south a look that the audience is sharing with him.
  • Specifically, it went a little like this:
• "Practice yous ever feel like life's unfair/'cause everybody hates you and no one cares?"
• After the group is reunited and the Yellowish Guy is offered an egg:

  Red: Mayhap it's because we... (makes a heart shape with his arms) Dear you.

Don't Hug Me I'one thousand Scared 4

• While playing their lath game:

  Red Guy: What is the biggest thing in the earth?
  Duck Guy: That's a tricky one!
  Yellow Guy: A Mountains? The sky! A windmill—
  Duck Guy: No!

• Yellow Guy commenting that he'd like to exist as smart as a computer, consummate with a brief Imagine Spot of him with a big brain and an adorably goofy grin on his face.
• Colin singing the last note of the word "digitally" with a derpy look on his face.
• Red Guy's increasing annoyance with Colin.

  Red Guy: Actually, we already have a figurer—
  Colin: GREAT! Corking news!

  • Their computer is an anthropomorphic felt laptop, complete with Windows XP-fashion rolling hills backdrop
• When Colin asks for where they alive, their proper name, and what they like to eat:
  • And then Red Guy realizes that Colin is just stalling:
    • The fact that Ruby-red's just response to Colin of a sudden screeching is to plow to the photographic camera and let out a quick "What?!" before the screen glitches out could make some people let out a little chuckle.
    • Even ameliorate is the fact that this is pretty much how y'all create an account on any website, including Television receiver Tropes.
  • Too this:

    Red Guy: Oh wow, how amazing, and interesting too, but in this digital world, what can nosotros do?
    (beat)
    Red Guy: (annoyed) What can nosotros—
    Colin: HEY, GOOD QUESTION!

  • "Time?!"
    • This edit drives information technology domicile.
• Digital Dancing! Followed by Colin doing a jig.
  • Then Yellow Guy and Duck Guy testify off some of their trip the light fantastic moves. At ane point, Duck Guy tin can be seen pelvic thrusting.
• "Wow, look, a pie graph!" "Digital style!" "Do a digital dancing! Hey, this is fun!". The fact that these 3 lines are repeated multiple times with only the Yellow Guy's part changing has fabricated them (but generally the "Digital Way!" role) something of a meme. And so...
  • The very fact that in Colin's version of the World Wide Web, the only things you can practise are watch graphs and charts, try out unlike dress, and dance is hilarious in and of itself.
  • "In the digital earth, in that location's over Iii things to do!" There's just 3.
• Ruby Guy's head randomly exploding into glitter at the end afterward seeing the Stylistic Suck reenactment of the start episode.
• The scene where the trio is transported into the digital globe after Red Guy pushes Colin'due south Berserk Button is filled with scratchy, eerie, electric static-similar noises and agonizing images. Then at one bespeak, Gilbert the Globe pops out of nowhere and shouts out "HEY THERE!" with a big smile on his face.
• When the puppets are all questioning what the biggest affair in the world is, they all expect at the globe and say prompting statements like "If merely there is some manner to acquire more than about the earth." They've gotten then used to things randomly coming to life to teach them lessons at this signal that they're either expecting it or actively trying to provoke the objects around them to become information technology over with.
  • Even better, the globe had turned around to reveal its face and was just almost to outset singing (consummate with the first few notes of its song playing on the background music) until Colin piped up. The globe but stares blankly before quietly turning back around.
    • It would take been dainty if Red Guy and Duck Guy had remembered that they owned a computer before they started cuing the Teachers for help.
    • Though it's simply a quick look, even Gilbert, the earth instructor, seems to be confused by this going by his raised eyebrows. Yes, the computer'south sudden advent managed to confuse even another one of the Teachers.
  • The trio's dumbfounded reactions as Colin starts singing. Information technology's clear that they weren't expecting that. Before long afterward, they decide to simply whorl with it.
  • While he'southward singing, Colin absentmindedly jabs Yellow Guy in the face with his cursor. Yellowish Guy barely reacts.
• Scarlet Guy is also completely bored and unimpressed with the world inside of the calculator.
• After spending the entire series reacting pretty deadpan-ly to everything around him, it's pretty amusing that when Ruby Guy accidentally crosses the 4th wall he tin merely squeak out a quick "Wait, what?"
• "Inside my mind there is a digital mind..." Cut to a compartment opening at the top of Colin's caput, revealing a sticky brain-like organ.
• Unlike the other inanimate object teachers, who are already visible in the room before they take on their sentient forms, Colin appears out of nowhere. Red Guy'due south line "Actually, we already have a computer" confirms that they've never seen him before. Non only is there a singing figurer in their business firm, it isn't even theirs. And Reddish Guy's first reaction is to ask it for assist with their trivia game.

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 5

• The beginning:

  Duck Guy: Something'south... missing...
  Xanthous Guy: Hmm... Is it this guy?
  (motions to talking staff of life)
  Bread: fishandchips, steakandbeef chachacha grapesandeggs steak... uh, eggs... uh...?
  (spoon drop, beat)
  Spinach: ARE You HUNGRY? Y'all Wait TO Be A BIT HUNGRY?
  Yellow Guy: No.
  Spinach: (a little awkward) Dodododo... lots of people get hungry.
  Steak: That's your trunk! (prods Duck Guy with his fork) Hungry comes from your body! (fork prods Duck Guy once more)
  Duck Guy: (obviously offended) Get off me!
  Steak: Simply your body, information technology musta have to be healthy!
  (fork prod)
  Duck Guy: Myeeh!

  • The all-time part is that, after Duck Guy says that something is missing, there's a long beat every bit the two puppets look around the kitchen in complete silence; we meet multiple pictures of Red Guy with the other two, just they don't seem to make the connexion. Finally, subsequently more than ten seconds of dead air, Yellow Guy finally points out the talking breadstuff (who wasn't at that place a 2d agone).
• As this blog mail service points out, the Bread doesn't drop his spoon; it breaks. And he keeps drumming like null happened.
  • In betwixt scenes the spoon is somehow fixed. It's possible the spoon breaking wasn't even intentional and they didn't bother to reshoot the scene.
• "Oh no, look! It'southward all broken and on the floor!"
  • "TERRIFYING GURGLE"
• The "wellness shape". It and its groups are incredibly jagged, with multiple sections detached from the chief shape.
  • The groups include cigarettes and gel.
• Foods that are considered "healthy":

  "...normal plain-looking foods such equally breadstuff, cream, white sauce and aspic"

  • The steak-human referring to vegetables as "soil foods."
• When the steak-human feeds the model of the digestive organization, it responds with a guttural sound, despite existence human being-shaped.
• The singers are terrible. The slice of breadstuff mutters, the can of spinach sounds severely drunkard, and the steak-man doesn't even try to find a discussion that rhymes with "grey". Information technology helps that the tin and steak don't even try to answer the questions Yellow Guy and Duck Guy inquire them.
• The Health Band'south standards for healthy nutrient are inconsistent the entire way through the song, including several outright contradictions: pizza is shown equally a "overnice" nutrient during the body-house segment, merely and so is dismissed as unhealthy right after in favor of white sauce... which is then itself labelled as bad. Information technology becomes clear early on that they actually have no idea what they're talking almost, but they just. won't. cease.
• Duck Guy making a worried whine earlier it cuts to the "health shape".

  Duck Guy: yeeehh...

• "Organs."
• After the meat guy compares the digestive system to a house:

  Duck Guy: ...That doesn't make sense!
  Spinach Tin: (silences Duck Guy by placing a spoon over his bill) Doo doo doo doo doo!

  • The entire house segment in and of itself.

  Steak: Oh look, there's Mr Bladder in the basement!

• The Wellness Ring's reaction to the phone ringing: they end everything when the song is interrupted, looking genuinely confused and offended.
• The fridge's increasingly frenetic dance moves, which mostly involve wildly contorting his arms. Near the end he's gotten so groovy that things are falling off his head and crashing to the ground.

Don't Hug Me I'one thousand Scared 6

• Subsequently Yellow Guy turns off his lamp, it turns dorsum on and comes to life, asking him if he's sleepy and telling him it's silly to be. His response is to shout "No!" and turn off the lamp.
  • Yellow Guy's tone equally he does so, which doubles as awesome—his voice has a distinct "I'm so done" tone to information technology.
• The Lamp itself is incredibly amusing to picket, with his drunken demeanor, goofy walk, and (intentionally) god awful singing voice.
  • Combined with the above, Yellow Guy's sobbing protests somehow manage to become a lot funnier ◊ during the Art Shift.
• "Wouldn't it exist funny if ane of these files came live? I am a file and you put documents in me..."
  • This subsequently becomes a Brick Joke when Blood-red Guy messes with the control panel causing the teacher keeps changing into other ones, 1 of them is a file with "DHMIS File 6" on it that really does sing "I am a file and you put documents in me..."
• When Cherry-red Guy gets up on stage to sing the "Creative" song:

  Piano-Playing Cherry-red Guy: That's rude. No dress...

  • This further implies that the whole time the iii puppets were learning their lessons, Red Guy was naked and nobody cared.
• The awful pianoforte playing by a clone of Red Guy, whose arms are stiff and just moving upwardly and downwards when pressing upon the keys of the pianoforte.
• Equally Red Guy performs, he is soon jeered and booed by the crowd of other Ruddy Guys. Beingness Red Guys, the most they can articulate is "I don't like information technology" and "It's not very adept at all."
• Subsequently Cherry Guy finds the control panel and begins messing with it, the Lamp turns into Tony the Clock. Yellow Guy'south exasperated response is hilarious. Same with the cycling teachers' timing.

  Tony: Time is a tool y'all can put on the wall or wear it on your wrist!
  Yellow Guy: Huh!?
  Tony: The by is far behind united states of america—
  Yellow Guy: You!?
  Tony: —The time to come doesn't exist. Time went new and got old like history, stuff from the past went into a mystery!
  Yellowish Guy: You made me die!
  Tony: Just look—
  Colin: —a figurer, I'm a computery guy! Everything made out of buttons and wires, I'd like to show ya—
  Shrignold: —why nosotros're here? What'southward information technology all about you have no idea! Everywhere you lot look, all y'all see is hatred, and darkness, expiry and—
  Steak: —Ice cream beef! Ice cream beefiness makes your teeth get greyness!
  Spinach Can: Doesn't thing, only throw it away! Why non effort some—
  Duck Guy: —fish on my tray? WHAT!? WHERE AM I!?

  • Notably anybody somewhat keeps the song flowing... except the Healthy Band.
  • After further messing with the control panel, the teacher keeps irresolute until it starts cycling through teachers that never appeared earlier. Their vocal lyrics get increasingly ridiculous as they go on.

    Solar Arrangement: Nosotros are in the universe! Planets live inside the moon! A rocket ship can go to infinite! A rocket ship tin can become to the moon!
    Football: Sports! Ball! Let'southward play sports! Cricket ball! Carmine card!
    Magnet: I'm Magnet, and I'm friends with metallic I attracted, and information technology's my best friend!
    Shovel: Allow's dig a hole at the bottom of the garden...
    Saxophone: Bop-a-doo-bop! I teach ya how to buy a canoooooooe!
    File: I am a file and you lot put documents in me!
    Stoplight: Green is for go! But cherry-red is for not get! You can exist crushed by a bus!
    Gel Jar: Allow's learn nigh gel! I know about gel!
    Cigarette: STINKY Oral fissure!
    Boombox: When music is your favorite friend—

  • Also, when the Football says "red menu," he harmlessly throws 1 at Yellowish Guy's confused confront.
• Could likewise be considered creepy, but Red Guy's reaction to seeing Roy comes off as funnier than possibly intended.
• Sketchbook's derpy face ◊ at the end of the story.
• The Sketchbook'southward abrupt appearance at the end is pretty hilarious, with their face making it even funnier.
• Just before singing the artistic song, the camera cuts to a shot of Cherry Guy's dress sprawled over the chair and his (presumably) glass of wine empty.
  • Though that could exist interpreted in a less funny manner...
• "I'm the Cool Guy, I guess..."
  • "I am laid-back and sad."
  • "And I was like, 'yes, that'due south not fifty-fifty the same bucket.'"

Pilot Episode

• Red Guy accidentally cutting off Duck Guy's role of the song with his introduction.
• During the beginning song, Red Guy expresses frustration in the fact that everyone in town sings the same song every morning.
• Duck Guy existence annoyed by Yellow Guy constantly ruining the song by haphazardly adding that information technology's his altogether into the lyrics.
• Large Ian's introduction:

  Xanthous Guy: Wakey wakey! Large Ian!
  Duck Guy: Who lives nextdoor to our funny business firm!
  Cherry-red Guy: And everyday when we wake y'all up, y'all come outside and say "Hello, I'm Large Ian!"
  (Big Ian comes out of his firm)
  Large Ian: Hello, I'k Big Ian!
  (Trounce)
  Duck Guy: Await, there he is!

• Mrs. Grenald'south cake is clearly fabricated out of existent flesh.
  • When Yellow Guy attempts to swallow her cake, Red Guy shoves him away from information technology. Seemingly the simply ane aware of the flesh inside.
• "Mayor Pigface".
• The fact that Duck Guy randomly hits an extremely high notation equally him and the others sing the verse about Mayor Pigface.
• Duck Guy plainly doesn't know what a key is.

  Duck Guy: Heh, it'south the petty metallic stick from earlier! He'southward turned into a male child! Isn't he funny?

• Red Guy is appearently withal unsure what to practise about random talking objects asking him questions:

  The Key to the Metropolis: I'm a fundamental! ...The Key to the Urban center! —ey to the City! —the City!
  Red Guy: ....Uh, right. So... Exercise y'all know what happened to the major?
  TKTTC: No! (off-screen teleports right to Red Guy'southward chair) But allow me ask you a question. Exercise you love your boondocks? —your town?
  (long suspension)
  Ruddy Guy: ...What? Uh... Is he talking to me...?

• The Key to the City's Jump Scare on Xanthous Guy is equal parts funny as it is Nightmare Fuel.
• Everything involving The Key to the Metropolis's Fine art Shift song about security.
  • This substitution:
  • Red Guy being the only person who really wants to look for the mayor.
  • Scarlet Guy abruptly stopping the song to tell anybody he found a inkling regarding the mayor's disappearance. Predictably, no 1 takes find of him.
  • Duck Guy'south declaration afterwards the song is over, which is autotuned to the max.

    Duck Guy: IiIi aAm yOoOur nEeEw mayoOoOoOr!

• Duck Guy'south extremely weird infatuation with the mayor's bowling ball.
  • Duck Guy actually gets a boner while thinking about the bowling ball in the mayor's office.
    • Even worse, we actually get to see Duck Guy's penis getting erect. His penis itself is depicted every bit eyeball-like cylinder.
    • If all that wasn't enough, Duck Guy actually named his penis "Morgan".
  • Duck Guy's Imagine Spot with the brawl, which has him stroking the bowling ball in a very suggestive manner.
• Yellowish Guy turning into a punk rebel.
• The airplane pilot's catastrophe, where everyone spontaneously starts gushing over their dearest for Fizzy Milk. Leaving the Primary Trio conspicuously dislocated.

• The Kickstarter video has several hilarious moments, specially at the very get-go.

  Red Guy: Oh dear. Nosotros're all tied up.
  Duck Guy: Very strange indeed. I have no memory of tying myself upwardly or falling comatose here.
  Yellow Guy: ...Why are we in my dad'due south house?
  Crimson Guy: (exhasperated sigh) I don't remember this is your dad's firm.

  • Blood-red Guy is forced to read a plea for coin while the Coin Monster stands over him with a hammer. When Carmine Guy finishes reading, he turns to the Money Monster and audibly whispers "How was that? Was that okay?" He gets a snarl in response.
  • Subsequently, we have this:
  • The narrator showing pictures from previous installments and immediately cutting abroad when the gory stuff shows.
  • "Don't Hug Me I'g Scared has reached over twenty one thousand thousand views on YouTube. And we call up that's not bad."
    • "Seriously cool."
• Most of this interview of the 3 puppets.
  • When asked what is beloved, Bird Guy responds with "Bono?" presumably dislocated with Ruby-red Guy's last answer of "I don't know, Bono?" to the previous question of "Who do you dearest?"
  • Doubled when you realize that the interviewers are merely asking questions poised in episodes of the serial, which end after Red Guy points it out:

    Red Guy: Oh god, I see what your doing here.

    • Fabricated funnier when you realize that they spelled "y'all're" equally "your."
    • Also, the fact that he notices what'southward happening when they ask a question he asked in episode two.
• This is the story of Michael..
• Anyone remember the saxophone from the 6th installment?
