The Electric Cheese is a well-known Youtube pooper, often responsible for the popularization (mostly controversial) of several pieces of material (For Example, [[Volvic]] commercials), particularly through 2007. He is also known as one of the first poopers to implement musical remixes as part of a Youtube Poop. In addition, he produces idents for Youtube Poop, which although widely used, are not officially supported by [[youchewpoop.com]]. These idents contain the slogan, "[[Where there's smoke they pinch back]]". (See [[mrSimon idents]]).

==Criticism==
 +
Without doubt the biggest amount of criticism that The Electric Cheese receives is thinly disguised jealousy of his success. Some argue that his work does not merit the attention that it receives and that he is only prolific because he is skilled at marketing and self [[promotion]].
 +
He often trolls the forums and is as likely to post offensive remarks as he is to be helpful or friendly.
 +
Despite being a user of the youchewpoop forum he often behaves as if the place is below him and his occasional visits (when promoting his latest work) are treated by him as if he were royalty. Likewise he rarely co ordinates any community activities with anyone and instead is dependant on his own cache'.

*The Electric Cheese does things his way, does want he wants and nearly always gets away with it. (See what I meant about the ego?)
 +
*Never worried about criticism he is happy to take an idea, expand upon it and make it his own. It is this which has resulted in a lot of unfounded accusations of theft (especially when from obscure sources) from those who don't understand the nature of derivative art culture.
 +
*He has a brilliant eye for what will be popular and has initiated a number of fads and trends.
 +
*Despite his ''hard man of poop'' reputation, which he re-enforces by being abrasive and shouting etc. The Electric Cheese is in fact a complete geek. Both in life, (as evidenced by his class honours degree) and in poop The Electric Cheese's dedication to detail is what makes his work stand out. When The Electric Cheese makes a poop he didn't just knock it out in half an hour, he spent time thinking, working and making decisions inform by the mistakes of others.

The Electric Cheese is a well-known Youtube pooper, often responsible for the popularization (mostly controversial) of several pieces of material (For Example, Volvic commercials), particularly through 2007. He is also known as one of the first poopers to implement musical remixes as part of a Youtube Poop. In addition, he produces idents for Youtube Poop, which although widely used, are not officially supported by youchewpoop.com. These idents contain the slogan, "Where there's smoke they pinch back". (See mrSimon idents).

Online, he is also known as "mrSimon", in the past uploading Youtube Poops to his alternate account, "mrSimonAlt".

The first poop The Electric Cheese saw was I'D SAY HE'S HOT ON OUR TAIL

The Electric Cheese's "style" is half context construction, half ear rape.

Criticism

Without doubt the biggest amount of criticism that The Electric Cheese receives is thinly disguised jealousy of his success. Some argue that his work does not merit the attention that it receives and that he is only prolific because he is skilled at marketing and self promotion. He often trolls the forums and is as likely to post offensive remarks as he is to be helpful or friendly. Despite being a user of the youchewpoop forum he often behaves as if the place is below him and his occasional visits (when promoting his latest work) are treated by him as if he were royalty. Likewise he rarely co ordinates any community activities with anyone and instead is dependant on his own cache'.

Trivia

  • The Electric Cheese does things his way, does want he wants and nearly always gets away with it. (See what I meant about the ego?)
  • Never worried about criticism he is happy to take an idea, expand upon it and make it his own. It is this which has resulted in a lot of unfounded accusations of theft (especially when from obscure sources) from those who don't understand the nature of derivative art culture.
  • He has a brilliant eye for what will be popular and has initiated a number of fads and trends.
  • Despite his hard man of poop reputation, which he re-enforces by being abrasive and shouting etc. The Electric Cheese is in fact a complete geek. Both in life, (as evidenced by his class honours degree) and in poop The Electric Cheese's dedication to detail is what makes his work stand out. When The Electric Cheese makes a poop he didn't just knock it out in half an hour, he spent time thinking, working and making decisions inform by the mistakes of others.
