AIDS

This article refers to poop AIDS and should not to be confused with actual HIV AIDS (a disease caused by having sex).

In Brief

A diagnosis of AIDS generally means a complete failure of everything a video tries to achieve. Even if the video attempts to achieve nothing at all (nihilism) it fails at that! It is a result of a complete failure of the immunity the trash aesthetics offers and is very difficult to shake off but not impossible to cure.

Early strains of AIDS were believed to be sexually transmitted (i.e. by posting video responses) but it has since come to light that AIDS is a Pooper disease and not a Poop disease - once a Pooper gets AIDS all his/her videos are infected!

Common Strains

The a number of mutant strains of AIDS, each of which has it's own set of symptoms and recommend remedy - however each of these can been fatal and can result in public humiliation, shame and resignation. Many AIDS victims have even deleted their own youtube account to help prevent the spread of AIDS.

Mama Luigi AIDS

{{#ev:youtube|edkFU_uzSkg|320}}

Created by Retrojape, mama Luigi fetish was one of the founding principals of Youtube Poop, based on the idea that by obsessively reusing the same episode of Super Mario World new and bizarre meanings of it would me made, not unlike cracking a code; although it has been disputed whether this was his ultimate intention - it is far more likely that the outcome would be unknown.

With Mama Luigi becoming a trend by late 2006 it is recognised that it then become tired and in danger of becoming a fad as the January 07 boom of poop popularity took hold. Even then though, by the time mrSimon made MAMA LUIGI, RAPED, INVERTED AND REVERSED in February, one of his first poops (see right) there was a groundswell movement against the use of mama luigi clips in poops resulting in it's use diminishing significantly.

Quite simply - by spring 2007 no one remembered the point of using specifically mama luigi clips and it dismissed.

It was at this point that Mama Luigi the character was born, and let it be said it was Born with AIDS.

For the new strain of poopers using it, wrong assumed that the 'joke' was in the feminisation of luigi in the same way as Gay Luigi was becoming a household name. This new reinvention of mama luigi was instead to principally sample actual utterances of people saying the phrase 'mama luigi' - audio samples would would them find themselves in other videos.

There notion that the episode of Super Mario World had hidden meaning that could only be found by remixing it was completely rejected but third generation poopers, many of which were in the habit of ripping sampling actual poops rather than primary sources. Poopers would liberally use mama luigi quotes having not even seen the episode it refered to.

Youtube Poop had created it's own messiah whose name meant more than his message, and whose followers, in blind pursuit of lulz were completely failing to use in a even marginally interesting way.

Some argue that mama luigi AIDS was cured by DoctorPoopnik (THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU OVERUSE POOP - pictured right) and that it died out or was superseded by cd-i AIDS but many of the earlier generation of poopers still shudder at the damage caused my mama luigi.

Very few are immune to it in the modern world of poop and that rather than being stamped out most poopers instead managed to build up an immunity to it and can filter out the sound of it from poops. This makes it near impossible to achieve a WIN from mama luigi but does not result in the same hatred and fear of infection that it did some months before.

Cd-i AIDS

In the same was as later cases of mama luigi AIDS cases are not treated with any seriousness so too is Cd-i AIDS ignored as it can be assumed that most 3rd+ generation are born with it. This flawed assertion assumes that the first few videos a pooper makes will have AIDS as poop is something learned rather than something made intuitively. The danger here being that cd-i AIDS is now more well known than Youtube Poop itself and results in the death of a noob with potential.

To understand cd-i AIDS it's important to understand the original purpose of cd-i in Youtube Poop, how and why it works and how a WIN can be achieved.

Firstly, there is trash aesthetics. That which is bad, laughably awful and crappy. Good examples include daytime TV, old adverts, MS PAINT, clip art or art made by non artists and children. All of these things are trash because at a certain point in time were were considered good by some people (even if a minority). Kids really did love Ronald Macdonald and Michael Jackson and ninetdo SNES was a cutting edge piece of technology that meant you didn't have to pay a fortune in an arcade.

So when Philips were allowed to use nintendo brands such as Mario and Link for their own games it should have meant a great new game on cutting edge technology. Instead the thing stank of cheap rip off that bore very little resemblance to either the nintendo games or the Mario cartoon series.

"Who is this guy? He should be raped until we know the truth!"

In short - whoever the guy portrayed in Hotel Mario was he sure as hell wasn't Mario. Philips had raped Mario and it the interests of justice is was important to share with the world the full extent, in as greater detail as possible how wrong he is and how much we love the real mario by destroying any imposters. (Paper Mario take note).

In just the same way as mama luigi was being re-coded and deciphered by a dedicated team of poopers so too was Hotel Mario and the two Zelda games. And although the motivations differed the results were the same. New meaning was being created by the subversion of that which was believed to be suspicious and wrong.

Sadly, some of these new videos were extremely funny, like What is Spaghetti by JeffLindblom (pictured right) and resulted in many 3rd generation poops merely copying it and other winning poops in the blind pursuit of lulz.

Windows Movie Maker AIDS?

Wizkid837 has done some research, and found out that all forms of AIDS may be linked to Windows Movie Maker (WMM). This has yet to be proven, as many epic poops have been made with WMM, and there has been failures with more advanced software.

How to cure AIDS

The most common solution is abstention from whichever strain you are effected by but this has resulted in mixed results as like giving up an addiction, substitition is never quite the same and poopers often die off soon after thinking they are cured. A good example of this is MVJ52197 who to the extreme measure of prescribing himself a course of Final Destination but quickly found himself lost and not knowing where he was or what he was doing.

For the danger of substitution is that the pooper will loose site of method and poopisms and will instead merely re-edit a single media source and find themselves making the same creative decisions as normal youtube user in pursuit of lulz.

Instead it is suggested that AIDS victims be encouraged to watch as many poops as popular by recognised poop practitioners in the hope that diversity will safely educate them and the richness of method and content that is available to them. By reassuring patients that cd-i and other sources can be safely handled (including even Family Guy) it is hoped that they may swiftly recover from their shocking disgnosnes and go on to make many safe WINS.
