She started in January 2008 on the channel comicstripdude, which she closed in January 2010 and began working as ThornBrain. She deleted most of her old, bad YTPs, moved the rest to her side account IAMAGUINESSSTAND, and made a handful more before retiring from YTP indefinitely in December 2010; she did however began releasing her music as part of the now-defunct YouChew-connected netlabel "[[Futures Passed Free Music]]" at this same time. |

The mixture of nostalgic enjoyment and embarrassment convinced her to give YTPing another try, so she returned to making poops sporadically from then-on. |

Eventually | + | One day Thorn searched up videos of the Rabbids from their eponymous Rayman game. One of the videos was a confusing pastiche of Rabbid clips with scenes from a cartoon starring raccoons. Eventually she came to know this style of video as YouTube Poop, and she thereby discovered [[Stegblob]]. Thorn constantly downloaded Stegblob's videos to watch on her iPod in High School, eventually deciding to make her own on [[Windows Movie Maker]] in January 2008. The first was based on ''Countdown with Keith Olbermann'', titled "Keith Olbermann Says You've Done Bad Things". It was bad. It's also long gone, like most poops from this channel. |
− | + | She followed it up with many awful newbie-ish poops: "[[Robotnik]] Has Phone Sex with [[the King]]" (later renamed "STOP FUCKING WATCHING THIS SHIT" due to its high traffic), "Robotnik Gets Rick Roll'd While Preying on Scratch", an addition to the [[71519]] fad called "71519 Lashes to Thine Backside", many "[[LUIGI WINDS A TOY WHILE I PLAY UNFITTING MUSIC|Unfitting Musics]]", a second fad video that was an offshoot of 71519, her first [[YTPMV]] called "DIESES FILM ENTHALT DIE KLOWN-MASCHINE" (of [[Ronald McDonald]] singing Kraftwerk's "The Man Machine"), "Keith and Billo Fight to the Death", an addition to the "[[THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN]]" fad called "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS GODDAMN DOTS THAT WIN", five ''more'' unfitting musics, a [[Word Trim]] of Robotnik saying "dick" (spliced from "dictator"), even more unfitting musics, "The Doctor Annoys Himself", a [[Re-Pooping|Re-poop]] of her first two Robotnik YTPs called "Robotnik Has Phone Sex With Rick Astley", and then one last unfitting music before leaving YTP alone for a while. Then she downloaded the trial to Sony Vegas 9. | |

She simply used Vegas to reverse a couple Robotnik clips, which she included in the only WMM-based poop that she kept after closing comicstripdude: "Robotnik Makes Some Suggestions". She canceled the first trial sometime around here, instead making a "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN" of the ''Zelda: Majora's Mask'' theme to "Stone Tower Temple", called "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN ON A MOLECULAR LEVEL" and using Robotnik's "pingas", Morshu's "mmmm" and Ronald's "Ran ran ruu". |
− | The end of November 2008 rolled around, and | + | The end of November 2008 rolled around, and she decided to go for Vegas again. She pooped a video YouTube user ''asilentskeptic'' posted, this time using Vegas for almost all of the editing and only used WMM to put the individual sections of poop together. One week later, determined to use the trial to its fullest, she created "Azumanga Daiohfuckit". It's perhaps the most important YTP she's made as it kickstarted an improvement in her editing skills, she had an incredible amount of fun putting it together, it began a series of YTPs based on [[Azumanga Daioh]], and it got falsely DMCA'd along with one of [[DualScreen77]]'s Azumanga poops. A few days after she followed with "Chiyo-Chan's Not Good at Cock". It's technically unfinished, but it was the first to prominently use stuttering/seizures. |
− | The Vegas trial ran out shortly after, so | + | The Vegas trial ran out shortly after, so she briefly returned to WMM and Audacity to create "Coughlan666 Prefers the Zelda Series", a remix of the "Molgera" theme from ''Zelda: Wind Waker'' and a psychotic video by YouTube comedian Richard Coughlan. Coughlan liked it so much that he reuploaded it to his own channel and included it in one of his highlight reels. A month or two passed when Thorn's computer died, following a long bought of unresponsive-DVD drive. She switched to her dad's old laptop and decided to give EditStudio a chance, but it was jarring to switch over to a new layout and work style, so she abandoned YTP for some time. In mid-April 2009, inspired by the EditStudio prowess of [[Combuskenisawesome]], she gave it another shot and stuck with it long enough to endure the crashes and random fuck-ups to create "Chiyo the Headbanger" and "Kimura Sweet Kimura". |

After a week or two of talking with [[Pilli10]], [[HoZKiNZPooP]], [[MexicanSunflower]] and a number of others in a large group Skype chat, HoZKiNZ and Thorn came up with some stupid Zelda CD-i jokes that HoZKiNZ urged Thorn to make into a poop, called "DA BESTEST POOP EVAR". Both HoZKiNZ and Pilli responded with their own variations on stupid CD-i poops, spurred on by Thorn having Link say that they both suck; Pilli's had Gwonam saying "comicstripdude sucks penis". |
For two following videos Thorn was taught by the people in the group chat how to autopoop with Pinnacle Studio 12. One was of "DA BESTEST POOP EVAR" and another was of an Azumanga Daioh clip of the girls reaching Okinawa. Thorn was inspired by the latter to do a full poop of the Okinawa clip, titled "Insert Portal Reference Here". It was posted as a response to [[Geibuchan]]'s "Tomo and the Blustery Day" poop, and Geibuchan praised the video. Geibuchan would go on to make YTPs that blow anything Thorn makes out of the water. | For two following videos Thorn was taught by the people in the group chat how to autopoop with Pinnacle Studio 12.

Reilly]], [[HoZKiNZPooP]], OMGTSN, and others; jokes were being made about phonetically pronouncing "omgtsn", and Thorn added "I am a Guinness stand". Deciding it would make for an amusing account name, she created the channel (forgetting the second 'n' when naming the account), and Stuart provided the Guinness Draft tank background for it. |

Though numerous miniature poops were created through November 2009, primarily of [[Crazy Bruce]], only one megapoop was made, titled "Spazzy Bruce's Megapoops". Following it, she uploaded what was for a time his most popular video, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFyxzNlpT4Y WHO'S CHRIDDOF NOW], a YTP of an ''Evil Dead 2'' scene and surreal 3D videos by MrChriddof. Also in November, Thorn started making short, not necessarily YTP videos, and these would account for a good chunk of her uploads until February. Occasionally, these would be based on inside jokes between her and [http://youtube.com/themidnightfrogs her parody video group]. She made one last proper YTP based on a music video by Los Angeles band Sparks, "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1q49_tViHk I shit on everything]", before going into a short hiatus. |

Thorn deleted most of her YTPs but kept and reuploaded her more-recent ones that she was still fairly proud of to IAMAGUINESSSTAND. The oldest kept video is "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeAs38gXHuw THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN ON A MOLECULAR LEVEL]", and the oldest proper YTP is "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2Kxdtn8mRs Robotnik Makes Some Suggestions]". |

Aside from two small, random videos, she would not make another until May 7 when she started her first [[YouTube Poop Tennis|Tennis match]] with CrazyPillX based on 70s and 80s music videos. Thorn also YTP'd a blog by her favorite internet musician, Daniel Earwicker, which was titled "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIFNPFgPWQ0 Pleasant British Fellow in a Box]" and received a positive comment from Earwicker himself. After some time waiting for CrazyPillX to upload round 5, Thorn quickly lost interest in YouTube Poops and largely fell out of the community. She would not upload anything new to IAMAGUINESSSTAND for five months, instead refocusing to her [http://youtube.com/thestrawhatno Let's Plays] and [http://youtube.com/themidnightfrogs parody videos]. |

She got the itch to make YTP again on December 1, pooping ''Mock the Week'' with "Tory Catenna Mocks the Weak" and finally ending the Tennis game with his part 6. However, after an attempt to rejoin the Skype group and immediately being kicked back out by HoZKiNZ, Thorn lost all motivation and interest in YTP, and IAMAGUINSSSTAND went into indefinite hiatus. She would not make a new YTP for the next five years, excluding the occasional YTP-influenced video she'd make for TheMidnightFrogs. |

Reilly]] doing the same thing. The mixture of enjoyment, nostalgia, and embarrassment, plus a comment from her friend Highwang about Frankensteining the best bits together into one last YTP, brought back Thorn's itch to do YTP. Instead of putting old clips together into a new video, Thorn opted to completely remake "Azumanga Daiohfuckit" as "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpG7HfiefRw Azumanga DaiohmygodwhathaveIDone]", due to the original being blocked worldwide for a content ID match. Still unsure if she wanted to properly get back to YTP, she made an all-new poop of her friend JigglyJacob playing ''The Sims 4'' titled "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYkQnM7uBko Spoiled Veggie Burgers]". She had so much fun making it, and Jacob and their friends liked it so much, that Thorn got back into pooping again properly. She stopped consistently making them again at the end of March, but she will occasionally put together a new one. |

In Brief[edit]
ThornBrain is a video editor, comedian, musician, and Let's Player who did YouTube Poops from 2008-2010, then sporadically since 2016. She started in January 2008 on the channel comicstripdude, which she closed in January 2010 and began working as ThornBrain. She deleted most of her old, bad YTPs, moved the rest to her side account IAMAGUINESSSTAND, and made a handful more before retiring from YTP indefinitely in December 2010; she did however began releasing her music as part of the now-defunct YouChew-connected netlabel "Futures Passed Free Music" at this same time.
Thorn held a retrospective stream of her YTPs in February 2016. The mixture of nostalgic enjoyment and embarrassment convinced her to give YTPing another try, so she returned to making poops sporadically from then-on.
History[edit]
comicstripdude[edit]
One day Thorn searched up videos of the Rabbids from their eponymous Rayman game. One of the videos was a confusing pastiche of Rabbid clips with scenes from a cartoon starring raccoons. Eventually she came to know this style of video as YouTube Poop, and she thereby discovered Stegblob. Thorn constantly downloaded Stegblob's videos to watch on her iPod in High School, eventually deciding to make her own on Windows Movie Maker in January 2008. The first was based on Countdown with Keith Olbermann, titled "Keith Olbermann Says You've Done Bad Things". It was bad. It's also long gone, like most poops from this channel.
She followed it up with many awful newbie-ish poops: "Robotnik Has Phone Sex with the King" (later renamed "STOP FUCKING WATCHING THIS SHIT" due to its high traffic), "Robotnik Gets Rick Roll'd While Preying on Scratch", an addition to the 71519 fad called "71519 Lashes to Thine Backside", many "Unfitting Musics", a second fad video that was an offshoot of 71519, her first YTPMV called "DIESES FILM ENTHALT DIE KLOWN-MASCHINE" (of Ronald McDonald singing Kraftwerk's "The Man Machine"), "Keith and Billo Fight to the Death", an addition to the "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN" fad called "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS GODDAMN DOTS THAT WIN", five more unfitting musics, a Word Trim of Robotnik saying "dick" (spliced from "dictator"), even more unfitting musics, "The Doctor Annoys Himself", a Re-poop of her first two Robotnik YTPs called "Robotnik Has Phone Sex With Rick Astley", and then one last unfitting music before leaving YTP alone for a while. Then she downloaded the trial to Sony Vegas 9.
Thorn didn't use Vegas immediately after downloading; all she had wanted for the longest time was the ability to reverse clips, which she had to supplant with just reversing audio in Audacity. She simply used Vegas to reverse a couple Robotnik clips, which she included in the only WMM-based poop that she kept after closing comicstripdude: "Robotnik Makes Some Suggestions". She canceled the first trial sometime around here, instead making a "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN" of the Zelda: Majora's Mask theme to "Stone Tower Temple", called "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN ON A MOLECULAR LEVEL" and using Robotnik's "pingas", Morshu's "mmmm" and Ronald's "Ran ran ruu".
The end of November 2008 rolled around, and she decided to go for Vegas again. She pooped a video YouTube user asilentskeptic posted, this time using Vegas for almost all of the editing and only used WMM to put the individual sections of poop together. One week later, determined to use the trial to its fullest, she created "Azumanga Daiohfuckit". It's perhaps the most important YTP she's made as it kickstarted an improvement in her editing skills, she had an incredible amount of fun putting it together, it began a series of YTPs based on Azumanga Daioh, and it got falsely DMCA'd along with one of DualScreen77's Azumanga poops. A few days after she followed with "Chiyo-Chan's Not Good at Cock". It's technically unfinished, but it was the first to prominently use stuttering/seizures.
The Vegas trial ran out shortly after, so she briefly returned to WMM and Audacity to create "Coughlan666 Prefers the Zelda Series", a remix of the "Molgera" theme from Zelda: Wind Waker and a psychotic video by YouTube comedian Richard Coughlan. Coughlan liked it so much that he reuploaded it to his own channel and included it in one of his highlight reels. A month or two passed when Thorn's computer died, following a long bought of unresponsive-DVD drive. She switched to her dad's old laptop and decided to give EditStudio a chance, but it was jarring to switch over to a new layout and work style, so she abandoned YTP for some time. In mid-April 2009, inspired by the EditStudio prowess of Combuskenisawesome, she gave it another shot and stuck with it long enough to endure the crashes and random fuck-ups to create "Chiyo the Headbanger" and "Kimura Sweet Kimura".
In August 15, 2009, with a new computer and a full copy of Vegas Movie Studio 9 in hand, she proceeded to create "Robotnik's Stuck in Fuckin' Chickentown", and a Young Ones poop inspired by TimAJH called "Mike's Gutter Bitch". After a week or two of talking with Pilli10, HoZKiNZPooP, MexicanSunflower and a number of others in a large group Skype chat, HoZKiNZ and Thorn came up with some stupid Zelda CD-i jokes that HoZKiNZ urged Thorn to make into a poop, called "DA BESTEST POOP EVAR". Both HoZKiNZ and Pilli responded with their own variations on stupid CD-i poops, spurred on by Thorn having Link say that they both suck; Pilli's had Gwonam saying "comicstripdude sucks penis".
For two following videos Thorn was taught by the people in the group chat how to autopoop with Pinnacle Studio 12. One was of "DA BESTEST POOP EVAR" and another was of an Azumanga Daioh clip of the girls reaching Okinawa. Thorn was inspired by the latter to do a full poop of the Okinawa clip, titled "Insert Portal Reference Here". It was posted as a response to Geibuchan's "Tomo and the Blustery Day" poop, and Geibuchan praised the video. Geibuchan would go on to make YTPs that blow anything Thorn makes out of the water.
Thorn YTP'd "Amazing Horse" by Weebl as "My Horse is Okay", inspired by Bikeman48837 and both enjoyed by a lot of people and hated by others looking for the original video. After a couple of YTPMVs and a Crazy Bruce video called "Crazy Cannon", Thorn made an alt account: IAMAGUINESSSTAND.
IAMAGUINESSSTAND[edit]
IAMAGUINESSSTAND was created in a Skype call with Thorn, Stuart K. Reilly, HoZKiNZPooP, OMGTSN, and others; jokes were being made about phonetically pronouncing "omgtsn", and Thorn added "I am a Guinness stand". Deciding it would make for an amusing account name, she created the channel (forgetting the second 'n' when naming the account), and Stuart provided the Guinness Draft tank background for it.
The original idea for the account was uploading very short YTP ideas that Thorn would have, then combining the numerous small videos into a full Megapoop that would be uploaded to comicstripdude. Though numerous miniature poops were created through November 2009, primarily of Crazy Bruce, only one megapoop was made, titled "Spazzy Bruce's Megapoops". Following it, she uploaded what was for a time his most popular video, WHO'S CHRIDDOF NOW, a YTP of an Evil Dead 2 scene and surreal 3D videos by MrChriddof. Also in November, Thorn started making short, not necessarily YTP videos, and these would account for a good chunk of her uploads until February. Occasionally, these would be based on inside jokes between her and her parody video group. She made one last proper YTP based on a music video by Los Angeles band Sparks, "I shit on everything", before going into a short hiatus.
On February 25 2010, Thorn officially announced the closing of the comicstripdude channel and her transfer to the ThornBrain username, as well as making IAMAGUINESSSTAND her YouTube Poop-only channel. Thorn deleted most of her YTPs but kept and reuploaded her more-recent ones that she was still fairly proud of to IAMAGUINESSSTAND. The oldest kept video is "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS WIN ON A MOLECULAR LEVEL", and the oldest proper YTP is "Robotnik Makes Some Suggestions".
After reuploading everything she wanted through March 1, she made another semi-popular YTP called "COCK CHEESE CURRAY" based on a bizarre, Japanese cheese curry commercial. Aside from two small, random videos, she would not make another until May 7 when she started her first Tennis match with CrazyPillX based on 70s and 80s music videos. Thorn also YTP'd a blog by her favorite internet musician, Daniel Earwicker, which was titled "Pleasant British Fellow in a Box" and received a positive comment from Earwicker himself. After some time waiting for CrazyPillX to upload round 5, Thorn quickly lost interest in YouTube Poops and largely fell out of the community. She would not upload anything new to IAMAGUINESSSTAND for five months, instead refocusing to her Let's Plays and parody videos.
On October 9, Thorn uploaded a sequel to her surreal text-to-speech video, "A Chicken Named Dennis - Episode 1", titled "A Pigeon Named Devin - (Dennis Episode 2)", of which all of the jokes were leftover from January in hopes of a sequel. She got the itch to make YTP again on December 1, pooping Mock the Week with "Tory Catenna Mocks the Weak" and finally ending the Tennis game with his part 6. However, after an attempt to rejoin the Skype group and immediately being kicked back out by HoZKiNZ, Thorn lost all motivation and interest in YTP, and IAMAGUINSSSTAND went into indefinite hiatus. She would not make a new YTP for the next five years, excluding the occasional YTP-influenced video she'd make for TheMidnightFrogs.
2016 Return[edit]
In February 2016, Thorn held a YouTube Poop retrospective stream where she showed off her old YTPs and talked about making them, inspired by MrSimon and Stuart K. Reilly doing the same thing. The mixture of enjoyment, nostalgia, and embarrassment, plus a comment from her friend Highwang about Frankensteining the best bits together into one last YTP, brought back Thorn's itch to do YTP. Instead of putting old clips together into a new video, Thorn opted to completely remake "Azumanga Daiohfuckit" as "Azumanga DaiohmygodwhathaveIDone", due to the original being blocked worldwide for a content ID match. Still unsure if she wanted to properly get back to YTP, she made an all-new poop of her friend JigglyJacob playing The Sims 4 titled "Spoiled Veggie Burgers". She had so much fun making it, and Jacob and their friends liked it so much, that Thorn got back into pooping again properly. She stopped consistently making them again at the end of March, but she will occasionally put together a new one.
Thorn changed the channel's name to "ThornBrain YTP" in 2021 before reverting it back to IAMAGUINESSSTAND in 2023.

Other Information[edit]
Trivia[edit]
- Thorn was only in one of each during her 2008-2010 run: a tennis game (with CrazyPillX that lasted 6 rounds), a soccer game (multi-way led by Pilli10, never continued past his match), a loop collab (HoZKiNZPooP's Super Mario Land collab), and a contest collab (Bikeman48837's collab of his brother; Thorn was the only entrant). She submitted an entry for a Pokemon loop collab led by HenoTalkie, but it never came to fruition. She's done more tennis and collab entries since returning in 2016.
