Tobias Joseph Turner, aka Tobuscus, is a YouTube personality known for his comedy, songwriting, and acting. His work includes original songs and comedy shorts, "Literal Trailers" of video games and films, song and commercial parodies, and a comedy clip series called "Cute Win Fail" (which consists of highlighting videos of cuteness, awesomeness, and failure). He also has his own "Lazy Vlog", and a gaming channel, Toby Games, also known as "Toby Sucks at Gaming".Despite having his major presence online, Toby is no stranger to acting, appearing in 2008 in the TV series Stranger Things(not that one) and the 2010 indie comedy New Low. In 2012, he broke into mainstream TV as the primary live actor in Cartoon Network's production of The High Fructose Adventures of Annoying Orange. In the same year, he also played a role in the indie slasher flick Smiley and appeared the 2016 Comedy Why Him?.To watch his Tobuscus videos go here, for his Lazy Vlog go here and for his gaming channel go here.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Tobuscus (Web Video) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Toby's commentary is very easy to take in the wrong context if you keep your eyes closed on certain occasions. This is almost always noticed by the commenters rather than Toby realizing it during the video. Specific examples: This episode of Happy Wheels at 2:46 This part of a highlight from an episode of Happy Wheels at 1:38 This episode of Happy Wheels at 11:56

Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping: Played for Laughs, especially in his vlogs, as he is capable of imitating a remarkably wide range of accents and voices but not, seemingly, of staying in them for more than a few sentences. In his Assassin's Creed: Revelations playthrough, he attempts to imitate Ezio's Italian accent, with mixed success — at several points he slips into Russian and Transylvanian accents, notices, and gets himself hopelessly confused.

Comedic Sociopathy
 Tobuscus (Web Video) / int_4a4d6f7c
comment
Comedic Sociopathy: In "Safety Torch", Toby invades an innocent kid's house, wakes him up in the middle of the night, scares him to death by telling him monsters are out to get him, offers him torches to keep the monsters away, gives him water to put out the resulting fires, and finally charges him $500 for those "services". And, in case there's any doubt as to whether this is deliberate extortion or not, the Frankenstinian monster he brings with him says, "'Sup, Toby" in an easy-to-miss speech bubble. In Viral Song, Toby torments the same kid again. First, when Toby sees Timmy trying to write a song, he decides to go help him — so he breaks down the kid's door with a crowbar. The rest of the song has Toby give Timmy a song that sounds pretty catchy. Unfortunately, Toby then refuses to clean up the things he brought into Timmy's room, claiming that Timmy "asked" for his help, and instead goes to upload the song to iTunes, revealing that he wasn't actually giving Timmy a viral song, but teaching him how to write one, himself. Then he informs Timmy that he's charging the kid $500 for his help.

Painting the Medium

comment
Painting the Medium: Toby continually refers to elements of his videos that only exist after they've been uploaded to Youtube, such as the annotations. He also pretends that the audience is wherever the camera is and/or is the camera. In one video, he notices that he's being zoomed out to show the Youtube video frame. In Trapped in a Vlog, Toby introduces the audience to his studio. In reality, he makes his filming background as white as possible and then plays with white balance to complete the effect (this is so he doesn't have to bother with a greenscreen). In that video, however, he pretends to be hiding a vast collection of white or near-white objects in the background, and invites the audience to click on each one in order to see a sub-video explaining what it is.

"Everybody Laughs" Ending: The first episode of Tobuscus Animated Adventures subverts this. Gabe and Toby have a good laugh over their predicament, then Toby turns into a zombie and eats Gabe. In the "Tobuscus Canadian Adventures" episode, the duo exchange some nervous laughter similar to the first episode. Then Gabe strangles Toby.

Cowboy BeBop at His Computer: invoked An interesting subversion in the animated music video for "I Can Swing My Sword" — the Minecraft recipe for a diamond sword is one stick and two diamonds, but Toby's version has three. Many people pointed out the error, but it's intentional, as the patent he claims to have in the song is specifically for a three-diamond version, making it unique.

Awesomeness Is a Force: In the Literal trailer for Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, this is apparently how Ezio kills a guard. note The guard in question actually gets shot by an arrow, but it is barely visible. besides, the notion of Ezio just killing a man through being awesome in his proximity is so much cooler.

Take a Third Option: Subverted. In one episode of his playthrough of The Walking Dead, Toby is presented with two options; leave a screaming woman to die at the hands of zombies, or snipe her, putting her out of her misery and drawing the dead to you. Toby chooses to shoot the zombies, only to find out that this was not programmed into the game, and he kills the woman despite not aiming for her. He named the episode after this one failure.

Stay in the Kitchen: Toby takes on a stereotypically condescending attitude in character during his Skyrim Let's Play.

Too Incompetent to Operate a Blanket: Toby's commercial for Hot Pockets features a man too incompetent to barbecue hotdogs. At first he struggles to open the packaging, trying and failing with his hands and teeth, stabbing himself through the hand when he tries using a knife, and resorts to blasting the packaging open with a shotgun. Then he drops the hotdogs through the gaps in the grill, knocks the barbecue into the pool, and takes a shrapnel wound when a propane tank explodes. Later in the commercial, another character claims that the last time he tried to make chili dogs, he accidentally started a war in Chile.

Promoted Fanboy: He created the Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Literal Trailer, which was immensely popular. Ubisoft loved the trailer so much that they personally hired Toby and his crew to do a preview and demo their games at E3 2011, where Toby met the developer team for Assassin's Creed: Revelations and learned that they were major Tobuscus fans. Since then, he's been invited to play these trailers at conventions as a featured performer and has written a Literal Trailer for a Revelations TV commercial. His fame has also landed him a voice acting gig for an unspecified game and appearances in several TV commercials (e.g., in the APB Reloaded trailer with Seananners), plus a spot on E! News for the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 launch at GameStop. Flash animator Gonzossm made a cartoon of Toby getting shot by a bear with a gun using soundclips from Toby's videos. Since then, he has become the official animator for all Tobuscus cartoons including "Nugget in a Biscuit" and "Tobuscus Animated Adventures!". William from the Fine Brothers' Kids React To series is a major Tobuscus fan. He got to appear in two Tobuscus videos as a younger Tobuscus and Toby's son. Toby has had several guest spots on The Annoying Orange and has subsequently been hired by Cartoon Network for a live action role in the 2012 TV series.

Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!
 Tobuscus (Web Video) / int_b7bc7d28
comment
Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: Toby claims to have ADD, although like many of his claims, this is unreliable. Celebrated by the original song, "There's a Floppy Disk on the Floor", in which his mother apparently shares this trait. Multiple times per episode in his Lazy Vlogs, with several ("Ooh, an airplane," "Ooh, flowers," and "Shhh!") approaching Catch Phrases. In the Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Literal Trailer, the assassin is easily distracted by a feather - when several guards are pointing their spears at him during an assassination. In his gaming episodes, he has an incredible ability to get distracted and lose track of what he's supposed to be doing. In sandbox games like Minecraft, this is fine, but it tends to frustrate (or alternatively, amuse) viewers of the more story-driven games to no end, especially when he doesn't pay attention to mission objectives.

Product Placement: In an interview, Toby said that one of his objectives in creating the Tobuscus vlogs is to attract advertisers. Much of his work is, in fact, sponsored. He further parodies this by yelling "Sponsor!" whenever any brand name appears in his videos, whether it's actually sponsoring him or not, and in some cases even if it's his own product.

Running Gag
 Tobuscus (Web Video) / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Many, all (most? some?) of which are presumably made up for Rule of Funny. Being allergic to alliteration. Being unable/unwilling to read. Being unable to use tools or do anything stereotypically manly. Peeing uncontrollably whenever he gets excited or scared. The hilarious abuse heaped on Steven, which wouldn't be as funny if Steven actually existed. "Reading books" as an Unusual Euphemism for drinking alcohol — as in, he read a lot of books last night and now his head hurts. Constantly improvising parody songs during his gaming sessions. These often become some of the favorite highlights among fans. His original Minecraft world is corrupted in such a way that it crashes frequently in a certain spot. Toby periodically revisits this world out of nostalgia and it always, always crashes, leaving him screaming in fury. Various Let's Play videos of different games are titled "I'M DEAD". More than once in the same series, sometimes. Often in Cute Win Fail, whenever a person or animal falls over in a flailing manner, Toby follows it up with a shout of "HADOUKEN!". Whenever he gets fan mail in which a person says that they "will die" if he reads it on one of his vlogs, he takes them literally. In his newer Happy Wheels videos, he'll say "LAST TIME" and show a quick recap of the last episode, and then say "THIS TIME" and show the new episode.
