He's the Giant Video Game Ear
I love this guy. I didn't think I would when I first heard about him.
Before I watched any of his videos I figured he was just another boring "I HATE EVERYTHING" reviewer, but when I watched him I realized he only reviews things that are godawful. His acting is a little forced sometimes and maybe he's not as funny looking as the Nostalgia critic but he sure has some great dialogue and has an awesome fucking theme song that won't stop playing over and over in my head, ever.
I also drew the critic again

COWABUNGA, DUDES!!
Enlisting in the Army is COOL!!
This was something I did for an illustration assignment, it's kind of the same idea as Gary the Hip Gap-hopping Kangaroo but this one's better because it'd be much much worse if it really existed.

The Nostalgia Critic
I really like The Nostalgia Critic. Even though he's another one of those angry internet guys that makes videos about how much some lame nerd thing no one cares about sucks balls, he's one of my favorites. He did this awesome review of Tom and Jerry The Movie that had me laughing to tears. He constantly compares himself to the Angry Video Game Nerd, but I like him better because there's just this extra sense of sincerity in his voice and expressions while describing his disdain for shitty nostalgic things that makes him just so much more hilarious to look at.

CAG
Control-Alt Delete is the worst. No, I take that back. It's the MORST.
The amount of shittiness in this comic has no limits. I could go on about the horrors of the comic's infinite unfunniness, that goes hand in hand with and is "balanced out" by the only slightly funnier dramatic parts that consist of miscarriages and long video game loading times (IT'S NOT FAIR, IT'S JUST NOT FAIR) but I'd really rather not and have you listen to someone who knows what they're talking about.
What I really want to complain about is the artwork. I mean, jesus. The only thing I can ever think whenever I see those hideous expressionless droopy-eyed designs is "How can you get away with this shit?"
Figure 1(above): 1/4 of a typical Control Alt Delete comic. (The other 75% is identical.)
With only one or two exceptions, wherever I go I appear to sing solo when I ask "What's up with their god damned mouths??" Here. Let me show you what a mouth looks like, for someone whose eyes are too droopy to see them and/or was too busy talking to give a shit.
I might not be the best artist, but I know enough about simple fingerpaints-level observation to know that mouths don't look like that. Alot of people do draw them like that, some argue that it's a just a cute stylistic thing they like to do, and that's ok if done dynamically. But in this case it just doesn't WORK. Their facial features don't flow, they POP!! Animating any of those characters looks like as much fun as putting my nuts in a vice.
