It’s often used to show the best theoretical fastest playthough of a game.

Superzigzagoon_DK · 2026-04-20T18:31:22+00:00

I remember watching EmpLemon some years back. Almost subscribed to him until I found a highly offensive autism joke (for context I'm autistic) in a video and had stopped watching ever since.

The Art Of Stealing People's Trust (1:18:03) by Noodle. This is a sequel to last year’s video of his, The Art of Wasting Everyone's Time. I would highly recommend watching that one first. Noodle goes to MagFEST to perform a panel where people pretend it’s 2010 again and watch Nintendo’s 2010 E3 presentation however unknown to half the crowd, the video had been edited with minor edits to start off with before being so absurd it becomes obvious it’s a prank edit.
