There’s a bit of a contrarian trend in fan brains. Hence why MLP fan content often involves slapdash silly jokes about drugs and murder.

Finally, some seasonal memes on this the 1206th day of October.
Projection, they seek violence, they feel everyone else seek violence, most are finding catharsis.
I've found that this applies to metal fans too. The heavier the metal, the sillier they are irl.
Better in every way with the top text chopped off.
Thank Mr. Skeltal
Bless us with good calcium
How can he doot without lips?
pure hate-fueled willpower
Bit off topic but this little known YouTuber found the source of the doot doot skeleton not too long ago. If anyone is interested here's the video which I found pretty neat!
Well, cool but I don’t think it warrants a 42 minute true crime style whodunit. I guess YouTubers will do anything to milk some content.
I scrubbed ahead for the tldr… it was some woman named Cathy Jarboe who was a gif artist in the late 90s. She put the skull up on her website. It was later also put up on another site called heathersanimations. A redditor was able to figure this out by looking at the image metadata from the heathersanimations gif from 2004, which indicated Cathy Jarboe was the creator. It can be found on the wayback machine. She also has a bio up on gifartist.com viewable on the wayback machine.
Here is Cathy’s gif page: https://web.archive.org/web/20110923171910/http://www.cjarboe.com/
Here is her bio:
She has apparently passed away.
Thank you for the summary, I too was expecting a 20min video at most, and tried to fast-forward to the actual info.
RIP Cathy, your memory will live on through your creation.
RIP doot skeleton lady. May the art she created doot on in her absence.
i actually do appreciate this, was an enjoyable vid. thank you!
Or Columboot.
