I'd say BMO is more Chaotic Good than anything, he's like a 5 or 6 year old kid with no filter. A little selfish, a little overexuberant, but he does value his friends. It's also kind of nice to have a character that stays young at heart while the rest of Ooo changes, he's still BMO in outer space or as King of Ooo, which is quite bittersweet really.
@Jaron Lightfoot True but in the video I didn't actually explain who or what Neptr is, so it's easy enough for someone to not remember it's name or purpose
That is more like humans encountering earlier humans. It isn't just race, it is more than that and has more to do with prejudice which isn't necessarily racial in nature. BMO is more advanced in tech than Neptr and was only given sentience because of Ice King zapping it. It is not like BMO was like that towards the other MO robots that were different colors than him, but ultimately the same sort of robot. If BMO was cruel to other MO bots that weren't the same blue he is, then I think THAT would make him "racist". We, humans, are many different races, but we are all homo sapiens at the end of the day. Humans being bungholes to other humans for being a different shade would probably project to us humans being prejudice against other hominids if we ever encountered them. I bet some of us were like that back in the day when other hominids were still around.
Ok so if BMO isn't delusional then how did BMO get trapped in the mirror while an imaginary alterego runs loose in the treehouse? Also why did BMO forceably apply lipstick to Loraine? And what about a recorded memory being complely inaccurate and devolving into a ramble about an imaginary cat with legs on its back so it can walk upside down? I have an overactive imagination but I can still tell the difference between my actual memories and what are clearly hallucinations, but BMO can't.
@@HeadCasey I have a feeling you are forgetting childhood a lot more than you realize or you were busy with other things while I was playing with my imaginary friend in my mom's closet. I can totally see myself having been as weird as BMO when I was a kid, but I am not like that anymore. I remember it, though. haha
Feels like there's a line there when you call BMO evil. He's probably just has those sociopathic tendencies children often show. But also damn. Never noticed AMO strung up like that. My First thought is BMO might be using his parts WALL-E style keeping himself alive
A strong enough imagination can become real, like in the knife storm episode where Jakes imagination takes over. Maybe it was BMO's imagination to begin with, but it became real when he actually swapped places into the mirror He couldn't remember things that really happened because of his overactive imagination, but when he perfectly remembers something that he imagined to begin with it becomes real
I absolutely agree with you! BMO is a fascinating character in Adventure Time, and their imagination is one of their most prominent traits. In the episode you mentioned, "Football" BMO's imagination allows them to enter a different reality where they are the ruler of a mirror world. It's fascinating to see how BMO's imagination can create such a vivid and complex alternate reality, and it speaks to the power of creativity and imagination in our lives. The idea that BMO's imagination could become real is a testament to the show's emphasis on the importance of imagination and creativity. It also raises interesting questions about the nature of reality and the power of our thoughts and perceptions to shape our experiences. Overall, BMO is a wonderful character that adds so much depth and complexity to the Adventure Time universe...
@@henreymichelson if that was true then Finns name would be Phil, as that's what BMO imagined it is. BMOs imagination doesn't effect anything other than BMOs interpretation of the world around them. Jake on the other hand can imagine things into reality, so it does seem "manifesting stuff" from imagination is a unique power that only certain characters have
"That other virtual reality one" EXCUSE ME PUT SOME RESPECT ON A GLITCH IS A GLITCH!! That is the absolute best thing to ever watch on hallucinogens, absurd story, weird animation, the most bat shit insane way to resolve the problem of the ep... it is a MASTERPIECE
I’m constantly re-watching adventure time every chance I get, it’s so refreshing to see other peoples perspectives on my favorite show of all time. Amazing job!!
Off topic but this video has me questioning: I know Prismo is technically Jakes dream but is there any possibility that Mo could have been the original dreamer of prisMO? It makes sense to me :0
There is a possibility, it is suspicious that the smartest man they know, and the most powerful entity that they know both have "Mo" in the name 🤔 Although since Prismo has existed for all of time, the question for me becomes "did Prismo secretly manage the events in the timeline specifically to cause the outcome where Mo exists?"
Ok that's fair, but also we see BMO casually deleting memories for fun, so I'm not sure it's a memory capacity issue or more.... User Error on BMOs part 😅
Remember when Jake imagined the lava floor and it actually burned Finn? Imagination has power, and what you imagine can become real. BM0's power IS his imagination gone wild. Everything that happened that you said was just in her head WAS real, but only as long as he continued to imagine and believe in it. Air didn't reply because air wasn't real, Air didn't reply because BM0 believed they were truly alone.
Nope. Spoilers for the Jake Video: Jake can imagine things to be real because is he Prismo. A Glob in a dog body, that's all. BMO attempts to imagine stuff into reality all the time, and fails constantly. Many characters are seen failing to imagine stuff into existence. The only times that anyone else pulls it off, is when Jake is specifically there with them using his powers to imagine their success. Like in Guardians of Sunshine when Jake yells "I believe in you" to Finn who suddenly now can do the magic combo move. It wasn't Finn's dance that made the move work, it was just Jake genuinely imagining that that the move would work.
imo, the creatures from guardians of sunshine were programs that were made real, rather than real creatures that were captured, then released. they say they were "imprisoned" but if they were programmed with intelligence/sentience then for all intents and purposes they could still be considered to have been imprisoned in the program. anyway, I believe the game brain main frame is an experiment by Mo in digitization of living beings for the purpose of making them immortal.
It just now occured to me that either Bubble/Air legit got bored of BMO and left them... or the whole "is actually Air" buisness is BMO coping hard after Jake violently and callously killed him. 😢
Pretty sure Air was simply never real, and it was just a normal bubble the entire time, the entire Sentient Friend/Lover part was just BMOs imagination adding life to the world around him for his own amusement 🤷♀️ BMO truly believed Bubble was real, even though he never was.
Football could be DID As someone with DID the explanation Football gives of what it's like "on the other side" is eerily similar to how I experience swapping with an alter It feels cold.. And dark Like I'm trapped in a prison cell made of my own flesh. I can't move, yet I wish to scream The mirror could just be a stand in for inner worlds and outer worlds Meaning football doesn't really need a mirror to communicate Although they may perceive their inner world as the inside of a mirror
Fair enough, I will admit that idea is beyond my scope of knowledge and understanding... but I am open to the concept of it, it could completely be the thing and I just can't see it because I can't comprehend how to interpret what I am seeing in BMOs mind
Hmm.. this video was an interesting study on BMO! Though I think often (especially in the context of cartoons) "evil" feels like it such an absolute. Cartoons often play around with the dichotomy of "good and evil", Adventure time especially! But I think what Adventure time as a series has tried to explore is how people aren't one of two things. People can do good things, or bad things.. but they aren't only those things. BMO can imagine anything is real, and "anything" includes things we find immoral. So I can see how he could be placed in the box of "secretly (or not so secretly) capable of evil actions." But I think one trait of hers that is important to think about and discuss is how she lacks and/or struggles with empathy. She can feel sympathy! But understanding exactly how another person feels is not something she is entirely able to do. Stories ultimately are also about the people who make them, and also the people who watch them. I understand this is about the characters within their own universe and completely respect that! BMO can be so many things. He can be like a 5 year old kid just having fun with his imagination, and he can also be a window into how people are very different from one another. (Because there are people who struggle with and do not entirely feel empathy. This does not make them bad people) "Football" is absolutely one of my favorite BMO episodes, and I really love that you included this clip (min 6:11). Finn and Jake show how supportive they are of their friend, and they respect him even though he is not entirely making sense. BMO is limitless potential.. those who spend time with him and care about him drastically shift which direction that potential can go.
But please don't take this as some sort of slight, or argument I'm trying to make. You brought up some really interesting questions for the watcher to consider. In the context of cartoons, I completely get why the idea of "heros and villians!" is a major point of discussion. Wondering if "x character was a villian" is a really fun thought experiment to delve into! Starting to wonder about this binary of good vs evil is something I feel is incredibly important for a narrative. I mentioned relationships in the last paragraph up there, and I think adventure time has always been about those. Especially now that we've been getting this amazing Fionna and Cake series! (I absolutely will NOT spoil it, don't worry!) More and more than ever i'm realizing that Adventure time is about relationships and cycles of mistreatment. Adventure time is also about mental health, and its about growing up and realizing that people are different. The things people do have an effect, and breaking out of those cycles.
Very good points you are making. Yes Adventure Time usually plays complex situations with the good, the bad and the depression in everyone 🤔 I did not mean to portray BMO as pure evil or pure good, just draw attention to the fact that BMO has layers of both, as most people would 🤷♀️ As for people who can only emulate empathy... I am actually one of those people 🤦♀️ But I do care about things and people, in my own way. I actually relate very much with BMO in that regard. Also I am all up to date on Fionna and Cake, so please feel free to comment anything about them as I truely love them to bits and would love to have a real conversation about them
I've always imagined BMO as an allegory to DID manifesting during formative years, which can explain a lot of why distinguishing reality, memory and imagination is so difficult with/for BMO. This parallel could also explain the "internal world" we see BMO stuck in when Football is out or "fronting". This internal world exists constantly and can be what goes on inside when they tell their stories. BMO as a metaphor to DID can also explain their avoidance when asked questions about their existence or feelings, which is common (if not primary) of those with DID.
having other people in your head isn't really imagination or delusion, at least how BMO behaves. first of all, as a robot, BMO could just have multiple "programs" running simultaneously. more realistically though, BMO seems to portray dissociative behavior.
Ah, but Football is in BMOs head and BMO is unable to identify that. BMO truly believes in Football as a separate entity, and as such, that's a delusion considering we saw BMO doing both voices while sitting on a toilet 🤣
@@HeadCasey I don't see why Football can't be a separate entity that has alternated control over BMO's body. hallucinations aren't able to gain control of the body in any case I know of. and while it's possible to experience a delusion that you are someone or something else, the fact that we see BMO as a separate consciousness that distinguishes themself from Football, it seems unlikely that Football can be explained through delusions or any form of psychosis alone. I see three solutions to this conflict: BMO is affected by some sort of magic or other weirdness of Ooo, BMO follows different rules on consciousness and identity than we understand since they are a computer, or BMO is experiencing dissociation in the way a human would (namely DID or some related phenomenon)
@@Blackbird74733 that's fair, you raise a very good point. Several people have commented that BMO had the DID thing, I'll admit I don't know much about it and I'm not an expert in how brains work at all, but it does seem odd to me that we saw a scene of BMO doing both voices when every other time Football is shown they do the mirror thing with the camera cutting back and forth between BMO and the mirror as if they are two separate entities 🤷♀️ Like, like BMOs reflection is talking to him. Like in horror movies where the reflection doesn't match the person, I thought Football was kinda like that, a sentient reflection 🤷♀️ But after the toilet scene I knew it wasn't that, like, Football is something in BMOs head, Football is not actually alive inside the mirror in any literal sense
@@HeadCasey yeah, it's not too widely understood in my experience. I do find it strange that they chose to stylize Football as existing only in the mirror, then abandoning that in the toilet scene. my best guess is that Football was interpreted as a sort of mirror dimension BMO by fans, and the creators changed it because they didn't intend that interpretation. it is known (and actually common) to be able to have multiple identity states conscious at the same time. that's called coconsciousness. they also often have conversations with each other while coconscious, often mentally but sometimes out loud. I assume the mirror is just a helpful visualization tool for them (and the audience on a more meta level), but it isn't required. identity states also alternate control of the body, which is called switching. it's common to have a sort of visualized world that an identity experiences existing in when another is in control. I interpret the mirror world as being their own version of this. the topic of Bubble is an interesting one. you could interpret Bubble as an imaginary friend, a hallucination, or a physical entity. you could even argue that Bubble is a third identity. external visualization of an identity state is possible, though not exactly common in my experience. I wouldn't argue for that interpretation, but it's possible. I actually argue that Finn could have similar dissociative experiences, or at least represent them in some way. *note on terminology: I'm trying to use neutral and intuitive sounding terms to make my argument easier to digest, but I'll include a small glossary for anyone who wants to know the correct language to use. someone who has multiple identities - system the quality of having multiple identities - plurality, systemhood the individual identities - system member, headmate, system mate, alter (alter is used by some people but not universally) to be in control of the body - front to change who is in control of the body - switch a mental location visitable by identities - headspace, inner world (note this isn't exclusive to systems, but systems experience it more commonly)
I think that the magic puddle dimension was caused by a worm hole passing between the two dimensions for a short time like book-o explained in that one lich episode, this is also what happened in the pillow world episode.
My favorite BMO moment was when BMO drops from above and lands on Finn,exclaiming "BMO Chop! If this were a real attack,you would've been dead." And then sometime later on in the series,BMO actually ends up killing Jake with a heart stopping technique lmao.
I'm always happy to respond to the fans, y'all fuel me to keep making videos 😁 I can't thank you enough for the support and motivation you give me from being a commenting fan
That is very true, although I worry BMO controlling reality would cause major inconsistencies 😅 Like the rules of the world yesterday won't be the same rules today because BMO changed his mind and has a new idea for a more fun way for reality to work 🤣
@@HeadCasey true but that would be a confusing interesting show ideea. A person who's dreams and imagination is the whole existance of the universe. But that person has a wide creativity with changing ideas over time
@@Davidutul that's true. The final ultimate plot twist to my A.I Multiverse series might just be that the entire thing was just a story that BMO is telling the Snail 🤣
Ok well I do have some other shows in mind so stay turned because I will start steering away from Adventure Time later in the year and start doing more theories on other shows soon
Oh many of them. Take every Fionna and Cake story that wasn't on a VHS tape, all the "fan fic" versions of a Fionna and Cake story are horribly unreliable in narration 😅
I don't think it's fair to automatically assume Football is an imaginary friend of sorts. After all, BMO is a sentient artificial construct. Who's to say, intentionally or not, he didn't just make another one within his own software?
@@HeadCasey I'm just saying, given the nature of BMO's existence, if BMO thinks Football is real, and he has his own desires apart from, even contrary to BMO's, I don't see how that is all that different from just being real. The closest real life parallel to this situation would be DID, which really the same arguments could be made on both sides.
To be honest, I was always shocked after I watched the episode "guardians of sunshine". Like, most people just take it as classic season 1 and 2 odd shenanigans. But even after finishing the show I was still curious about that pocket dimension inside BMO, how they didn't explored it again? Why he didn't use that against powerful enemies? How many monsters did he captured? Wish we can get an official explanation in later episodes or spin offs
I agree, I would love some more details and answers to this stuff... But unless BMO comes up in the Fionna and Cake show, the only answers we have are the ones in my videos 🤷♀️
I’d always assumed that like many other season 1/2 episodes it is dubiously canon at best. There’s a lot of instances where something that should be world changing happens offhand in an early episode like the multiple times Finn and Jake get access to some sort of magic. Of course it can be fun to theorize on how these episodes could be canon, but functionally speaking, in the writer’s room I’m fairly sure they’re just not
@@frimi8593 if it happened in the show, it's canon. If it didn't make sense in season 1 or 2, they snuck in little Easter eggs later to address how the early stuff fits into the canon. Also they do reference random episodes from the early show. Like the time Ice King married Jake's Butt, that totally comes up again later in the show for no reason other than to just re-establish that "despite how weird it was, it was indeed canon"
@@HeadCasey yes they do make reference to a lot of earlier episodes but also a lot of the stuff that happened before the writers had a well established world explicitly doesn’t come back ever. Like it’s pretty safe to say that Finn and Jake don’t have magic powers from the episode Wizard (Every time I rewatch it I’m surprised at the lack of indication that they lost their magic powers at the end, they just stop using them). Similarly, though it easily could be canon, there’s never any reference to that episode about Finn and Jake looking for cool armor which also incidentally has magic powers. And probably most damningly, the treehouse is surely never ripped from the ground and absolutely torn apart by a massive slug (and I should really hope not because that kinda makes that strong emotional beat in the finale a lot less impactful). The slug does put the tree house back in the end but it is still visibly destroyed and in later episodes the tree is seen to be very much alive and rooted into the ground. Also, while it is a fun idea that the guest animated episodes are alternate realities, the fully guess animated episodes (a glitch is a glitch, bad jubies, food chain, and water park prank) are all distinctly noncanon.
@@frimi8593 1. Finn still has magic. He uses it to make fire in the first Banana Man episode. 2. They still have the armour, it's seen as Easter egg in their treehouse in later episodes. 3. The treehouse is often destroyed and put back together. The magic repairs to the treehouse are easily explained away by Jake's imagination powers. As soon as he imagines that "the treehouse is fine now" suddenly it is. 4. Just because it didn't happen to "our Finn and Jake" doesn't mean that guest animated episodes "didn't happen" because they did totally happen in the multiverse, that's literally the entire point of the Beyond the Grotto episode, so show that portals to "guest animated worlds" do actually exist.
Also maybe The Purpose of the BMO Multidimensional Subspace wasn't actually meant to be a prison but a way to safely transport people and items by breaking them down into information.
Now that is genius, like a Digital Storage Space... But then because BMO has imagination he thought up a new purpose for that space... But wait though, AMO can generate and launch orbs that resemble Dark Matter from Futurama. So what's BMOs main attack? 🤔 Mo for sure built his robots to conquer, and he also built them to be Video Game Consoles for some reason. AMO only had one game (Hangman) and one level of the game 😅 So clearly AMO did not have the ability to generate up new games like BMO can... However there is a range of detail to BMOs games, like when BMO invented "Conversation Parade" but it was boring and basically nothing. So using the creatures trapped in the DigiSpace is perfect for BMO to create a real game for Finn and Jake like The Guardians of Sunshine 🤷♀️
Be sad for BMO, after it's adventures with finn and jake, it has left itself in sleep mode. You can see by the absence of artifacts not relating to it's time with finn and jake. Everything in its room is only from the time it spent with finn and jake. Nothing else exists except its fake beard.
With all of the nuance, lore, details, and character depth pointed out in your (very well written ^^) video.... it feels like a slap in the second-handed face that a majority of the comments are just "but girl? but BMO is (insert something about gender)" personally i just like learning about a character that i thought i already knew alot about, and i didnt know there was a card game where gender is important! its cool to hear 😊
Thank you, I put a fair amount of effort into the videos so it's nice to know some people really appreciate them and enjoy them. Try not to stress about all the pronoun haters in the comments of this video, I knew they would come and I still made this video anyway 🤣 can't let other peoples nonsense slow you down in life, gotta make your projects regardless
this is a great video, i love how sound all your theories are, it always feel so obvious once youve reminded us about the scenes where they just lay out deep facts of the universe, i feel like so many people overlook Booko and his importance. also, 666th like right before my birthday, hell yeah lol.
Happy Birthday and congratulations on getting the 666th like 😎 I'm glad you enjoyed the video and see the logic and lore hidden behind the Booko scene like I do 😂 Some people still watched this entire video and the Booko thing, then bothered to comment "Guest animated stuff isn't canon" 🤣
You should do a list of ways to get wishes in Adventure time. The strongest form if wish magic appears to be the crown since it was able to affect Golb.
That's a good idea. I will be focusing on the crown for a bit in an upcoming video or two eventually, but I probably won't touch on the other forms of wishes too much more at this point as I covered most of the good ones in my Jake video already 😅
Amaría si pudieras analizar la canción de "I remember you" y dar tu parecer al respecto, en el episodio hay cosas ocultas y pareciera tener algo turbio de fondo, cosas que Simon Petrikov pareciera hacer y luego no recordara...
Jake will have some mentions in upcoming videos, there is a few more Jake things for me to talk about but for the most part his full deep dive is done already x
@@HeadCasey can you explain more how he is the literal center of the universe and old man jake being prismo touched a part of my brain but the series is great i’m here for the ride !
@@vince_.4031 No promises but I have been considering setting up a Patrion page where fans can donate moneys to support my works and I was thinking as a perk for those people I should make some "extended cuts" of the previous videos with extra scenes and proof added in. The extended cut of the Jake video will certainly talk more about his place in the universe, the monsters from before time existed, and even Jake's children some more... But again, no promises. I'll have an update on all that hopefully by the end of the month
Beyond the Grotto is noncanon, like all the guest animation episodes. Also shows from Season 1 and 2 arent REALLY fully canon (as the writers werent really focusing on plot like that). I like the touch on BMO being imaginative, but im not a huge fan of the bmo is "evil" thing.
Beyond the Grotto is Canon. The episode literally starts and ends in normal animated Ooo with a specific portal leading to the place with the guest animated stuff. Also all the guest animated episodes are canon to the multiverse. Just because they didn't happen to "our Finn and Jake" doesn't mean they didn't still happen, as proven by Farm World. As for season 1 and 2 being "non-canon" well actually if it was in the show, then it was canon. I have decent answers to every question that connects the mysteries of the early seasons to the later canon of the show. So you don't get to simply decide that entire episodes aren't canon just because you don't understand how they fit the narrative.
Maybe they are a prototype of a all in one nanny Droid with an artificial environment with the warmth of the sun built in as his main brain game frame Everything you would want in your walking apocalypse shelter, All the intelligence and empathy and brutal survival instinct of a human but just not quite done yet so occasionally they have to hit their button when a bee gets a little too uppity
@@HeadCasey TrueLocalWeirdo did a pretty solid theory video on the topic. "Universal imagination" One of the reasons the majority of magic users in the show have some sort of personality defect is likely because they are aware of the true nature of the universe. They must be to use magic. And knowing it's all just created by the minds of others manipulating the dream of the first being drives many insane.
@@OmniversalInsect it's basically the only head cannon that makes any sense given the confirmed paradox in the show. We know reality only exists because beings exist to witness it in adventure time. So how did it start, if it always needs at least one being to view it to exist. Argo, first dreamer.
Bmo is a different creature. Morality as we know it can't be applied to bmo the same way we apply and understand it amongst ourselves. As an artificial intelligence, he didn't have the same pressures that would shape his species with the innate morality we have. Bmo, although he can speak the same language as us, would not be able to understand right from wrong the way we do.
Right, but the reason that's "shocking" is that BMO plays innocent, all the time. It's one cute little robot, so when it does do dark things most audience members just laugh off BMOs actions and give the free-pass based on "well it was cute"
You are right, that in today's world a person switching between genders would be called Gender Fluid, although the line greys a bit with BMO being a robot by default 🤔 Yes several of the comics and the official Art Book of Ooo label BMO has Gender Fluid, but some of the games and other merch have him listed as Gender Neutral sooooo The only thing that is completely clear is that BMO is a robot who bends gender rules to suit its own needs 🤷♀️
@@HeadCasey BMO is the most imaginative being we see in the show for good and ill. While the only thing I can see going for Jake is that a version of him is Prizmos Host.
I mean, I literally made the videos that show that BMOs imagination has hard limits and doesn't impact reality, and I proved Jake's imagination has the untapped potential to do basically anything including rewriting the reality around him... also Fionna and Cake spoilers: BMO isn't even considered alive 🤦♀️ sure the episode "the orb" suggests that BMO can dream, but "Jerry" proves that BMO doesn't even count as sentient life. Seems like the cosmic dreamer should be someone who is actually capable of true dreaming. Also this video we are literally commenting on proved that BMO is an unreliable narrator unable to even keep their memories straight for a few weeks. So if BMO dreamed up reality then there would be no continuity or logic anywhere to be seen in the world
*spoiler alert* Bubble was just a bubble that haphazardly guided BMO home and the personification of air as “Air” was BMO coping with the loss. Hearing “forever, and ever, until the end of time” was chilling. I know the bubble wasnt fully imagined because Jake popped it.
Ooo is the name of a landmass on Earth. Like how Australia is a landmass on Earth in real life. The planet is still earth, but the place on Earth where they live is Ooo

We, humans, are many different races, but we are all homo sapiens at the end of the day. Humans being bungholes to other humans for being a different shade would probably project to us humans being prejudice against other hominids if we ever encountered them.

@@HeadCasey I have a feeling you are forgetting childhood a lot more than you realize or you were busy with other things while I was playing with my imaginary friend in my mom's closet. I can totally see myself having been as weird as BMO when I was a kid, but I am not like that anymore. I remember it, though. haha
Feels like there's a line there when you call BMO evil. He's probably just has those sociopathic tendencies children often show.
But also damn. Never noticed AMO strung up like that. My First thought is BMO might be using his parts WALL-E style keeping himself alive
Did -
Did I cross the line? 😅
HEY I'M NOT A SOCIOPATH
A strong enough imagination can become real, like in the knife storm episode where Jakes imagination takes over.
Maybe it was BMO's imagination to begin with, but it became real when he actually swapped places into the mirror
He couldn't remember things that really happened because of his overactive imagination, but when he perfectly remembers something that he imagined to begin with it becomes real
I absolutely agree with you! BMO is a fascinating character in Adventure Time, and their imagination is one of their most prominent traits. In the episode you mentioned, "Football" BMO's imagination allows them to enter a different reality where they are the ruler of a mirror world. It's fascinating to see how BMO's imagination can create such a vivid and complex alternate reality, and it speaks to the power of creativity and imagination in our lives.
The idea that BMO's imagination could become real is a testament to the show's emphasis on the importance of imagination and creativity. It also raises interesting questions about the nature of reality and the power of our thoughts and perceptions to shape our experiences. Overall, BMO is a wonderful character that adds so much depth and complexity to the Adventure Time universe...
Maybe in adventure time imagination can warp reality
@@henreymichelson if that was true then Finns name would be Phil, as that's what BMO imagined it is.
BMOs imagination doesn't effect anything other than BMOs interpretation of the world around them.
Jake on the other hand can imagine things into reality, so it does seem "manifesting stuff" from imagination is a unique power that only certain characters have
@@HeadCasey do you think imagine manifesting things has some ties to magic
@@henreymichelson for sure, that is a type of magic
BMO looking at Finn's arm and saying "...Phil! :)" still chokes me up.
I’m aware that BMO has no gender but it’s so weird to hear someone refer to them as she/her
Anyways, good video 💕
I might have done that on purpose to try make the "BMO is just a robot" fact seem more dramatic 😅
@@HeadCasey though BMOs voice is masculine i always treat BMO as a he
I mean their voice actor is a woman so that's understandable
"That other virtual reality one" EXCUSE ME PUT SOME RESPECT ON A GLITCH IS A GLITCH!! That is the absolute best thing to ever watch on hallucinogens, absurd story, weird animation, the most bat shit insane way to resolve the problem of the ep... it is a MASTERPIECE
Alright that's fair, send me some hallucinations and I will check the episode again 🤣
All I remember is eating hair
I’m constantly re-watching adventure time every chance I get, it’s so refreshing to see other peoples perspectives on my favorite show of all time. Amazing job!!
It is a great show, with many theory's still remaining about it. Perfect Show for fans to enjoy years into the future
I love BMO, she/he/they used to annoy me as a kid but I found myself attaching myself to the story of BMO once I grew up
Yes BMO is a complex character for sure, annoying and dark while cute and innocent at the same time 🤣
Off topic but this video has me questioning: I know Prismo is technically Jakes dream but is there any possibility that Mo could have been the original dreamer of prisMO? It makes sense to me :0
There is a possibility, it is suspicious that the smartest man they know, and the most powerful entity that they know both have "Mo" in the name 🤔
Although since Prismo has existed for all of time, the question for me becomes "did Prismo secretly manage the events in the timeline specifically to cause the outcome where Mo exists?"
@@HeadCasey well time does kinda function a bit differently in prismo’s time room dimension so really anything could be the case
@@HeadCasey maybe Mo is even the sleeping Prismo we see, and in the same way Jake turns into him, Mo was turned into Prismo's vessel at some point
BMO probably has a limited memory, put this with the fact that he has a very good imagination and we can understand is bad memory
Ok that's fair, but also we see BMO casually deleting memories for fun, so I'm not sure it's a memory capacity issue or more.... User Error on BMOs part 😅
Remember when Jake imagined the lava floor and it actually burned Finn? Imagination has power, and what you imagine can become real.
BM0's power IS his imagination gone wild. Everything that happened that you said was just in her head WAS real, but only as long as he continued to imagine and believe in it.
Air didn't reply because air wasn't real, Air didn't reply because BM0 believed they were truly alone.
Nope. Spoilers for the Jake Video: Jake can imagine things to be real because is he Prismo. A Glob in a dog body, that's all.
BMO attempts to imagine stuff into reality all the time, and fails constantly.
Many characters are seen failing to imagine stuff into existence.
The only times that anyone else pulls it off, is when Jake is specifically there with them using his powers to imagine their success.
Like in Guardians of Sunshine when Jake yells "I believe in you" to Finn who suddenly now can do the magic combo move.
It wasn't Finn's dance that made the move work, it was just Jake genuinely imagining that that the move would work.
I love BMO's sass "If i push this button" jake proceeds to press button bmo"IF I push this button"
Yeah BMO is one sassy robot 🤣
I really love these adventure time videos! It's my favourite show and I love these theories! Please keep making more!
Ok I'll make some more 😏
Although I might do a few theories in a few other shows too soon
This channel sounds like an actual character from Adventure Time describing Adventure Time.
imo, the creatures from guardians of sunshine were programs that were made real, rather than real creatures that were captured, then released. they say they were "imprisoned" but if they were programmed with intelligence/sentience then for all intents and purposes they could still be considered to have been imprisoned in the program.
anyway, I believe the game brain main frame is an experiment by Mo in digitization of living beings for the purpose of making them immortal.
Still, in either case it's pretty dodgy that Mo built BMO with a button that can do that 🤣
It just now occured to me that either Bubble/Air legit got bored of BMO and left them... or the whole "is actually Air" buisness is BMO coping hard after Jake violently and callously killed him.
😢
Pretty sure Air was simply never real, and it was just a normal bubble the entire time, the entire Sentient Friend/Lover part was just BMOs imagination adding life to the world around him for his own amusement 🤷♀️
BMO truly believed Bubble was real, even though he never was.
Football could be DID
As someone with DID the explanation Football gives of what it's like "on the other side" is eerily similar to how I experience swapping with an alter
It feels cold.. And dark
Like I'm trapped in a prison cell made of my own flesh. I can't move, yet I wish to scream
The mirror could just be a stand in for inner worlds and outer worlds
Meaning football doesn't really need a mirror to communicate
Although they may perceive their inner world as the inside of a mirror
Fair enough, I will admit that idea is beyond my scope of knowledge and understanding... but I am open to the concept of it, it could completely be the thing and I just can't see it because I can't comprehend how to interpret what I am seeing in BMOs mind
Hmm.. this video was an interesting study on BMO! Though I think often (especially in the context of cartoons) "evil" feels like it such an absolute. Cartoons often play around with the dichotomy of "good and evil", Adventure time especially! But I think what Adventure time as a series has tried to explore is how people aren't one of two things. People can do good things, or bad things.. but they aren't only those things.
BMO can imagine anything is real, and "anything" includes things we find immoral. So I can see how he could be placed in the box of "secretly (or not so secretly) capable of evil actions." But I think one trait of hers that is important to think about and discuss is how she lacks and/or struggles with empathy. She can feel sympathy! But understanding exactly how another person feels is not something she is entirely able to do.
Stories ultimately are also about the people who make them, and also the people who watch them. I understand this is about the characters within their own universe and completely respect that! BMO can be so many things. He can be like a 5 year old kid just having fun with his imagination, and he can also be a window into how people are very different from one another. (Because there are people who struggle with and do not entirely feel empathy. This does not make them bad people)
"Football" is absolutely one of my favorite BMO episodes, and I really love that you included this clip (min 6:11). Finn and Jake show how supportive they are of their friend, and they respect him even though he is not entirely making sense. BMO is limitless potential.. those who spend time with him and care about him drastically shift which direction that potential can go.
But please don't take this as some sort of slight, or argument I'm trying to make. You brought up some really interesting questions for the watcher to consider. In the context of cartoons, I completely get why the idea of "heros and villians!" is a major point of discussion. Wondering if "x character was a villian" is a really fun thought experiment to delve into! Starting to wonder about this binary of good vs evil is something I feel is incredibly important for a narrative.
I mentioned relationships in the last paragraph up there, and I think adventure time has always been about those. Especially now that we've been getting this amazing Fionna and Cake series! (I absolutely will NOT spoil it, don't worry!) More and more than ever i'm realizing that Adventure time is about relationships and cycles of mistreatment. Adventure time is also about mental health, and its about growing up and realizing that people are different. The things people do have an effect, and breaking out of those cycles.
Very good points you are making. Yes Adventure Time usually plays complex situations with the good, the bad and the depression in everyone 🤔
I did not mean to portray BMO as pure evil or pure good, just draw attention to the fact that BMO has layers of both, as most people would 🤷♀️
As for people who can only emulate empathy... I am actually one of those people 🤦♀️
But I do care about things and people, in my own way.
I actually relate very much with BMO in that regard.
Also I am all up to date on Fionna and Cake, so please feel free to comment anything about them as I truely love them to bits and would love to have a real conversation about them
I've always imagined BMO as an allegory to DID manifesting during formative years, which can explain a lot of why distinguishing reality, memory and imagination is so difficult with/for BMO. This parallel could also explain the "internal world" we see BMO stuck in when Football is out or "fronting". This internal world exists constantly and can be what goes on inside when they tell their stories. BMO as a metaphor to DID can also explain their avoidance when asked questions about their existence or feelings, which is common (if not primary) of those with DID.
having other people in your head isn't really imagination or delusion, at least how BMO behaves. first of all, as a robot, BMO could just have multiple "programs" running simultaneously. more realistically though, BMO seems to portray dissociative behavior.
Ah, but Football is in BMOs head and BMO is unable to identify that. BMO truly believes in Football as a separate entity, and as such, that's a delusion considering we saw BMO doing both voices while sitting on a toilet 🤣
@@HeadCasey I don't see why Football can't be a separate entity that has alternated control over BMO's body. hallucinations aren't able to gain control of the body in any case I know of. and while it's possible to experience a delusion that you are someone or something else, the fact that we see BMO as a separate consciousness that distinguishes themself from Football, it seems unlikely that Football can be explained through delusions or any form of psychosis alone.
I see three solutions to this conflict: BMO is affected by some sort of magic or other weirdness of Ooo, BMO follows different rules on consciousness and identity than we understand since they are a computer, or BMO is experiencing dissociation in the way a human would (namely DID or some related phenomenon)
@@Blackbird74733 that's fair, you raise a very good point. Several people have commented that BMO had the DID thing, I'll admit I don't know much about it and I'm not an expert in how brains work at all, but it does seem odd to me that we saw a scene of BMO doing both voices when every other time Football is shown they do the mirror thing with the camera cutting back and forth between BMO and the mirror as if they are two separate entities 🤷♀️
Like, like BMOs reflection is talking to him.
Like in horror movies where the reflection doesn't match the person, I thought Football was kinda like that, a sentient reflection 🤷♀️
But after the toilet scene I knew it wasn't that, like, Football is something in BMOs head, Football is not actually alive inside the mirror in any literal sense
@@HeadCasey yeah, it's not too widely understood in my experience. I do find it strange that they chose to stylize Football as existing only in the mirror, then abandoning that in the toilet scene. my best guess is that Football was interpreted as a sort of mirror dimension BMO by fans, and the creators changed it because they didn't intend that interpretation.
it is known (and actually common) to be able to have multiple identity states conscious at the same time. that's called coconsciousness. they also often have conversations with each other while coconscious, often mentally but sometimes out loud. I assume the mirror is just a helpful visualization tool for them (and the audience on a more meta level), but it isn't required. identity states also alternate control of the body, which is called switching. it's common to have a sort of visualized world that an identity experiences existing in when another is in control. I interpret the mirror world as being their own version of this.
the topic of Bubble is an interesting one. you could interpret Bubble as an imaginary friend, a hallucination, or a physical entity. you could even argue that Bubble is a third identity. external visualization of an identity state is possible, though not exactly common in my experience. I wouldn't argue for that interpretation, but it's possible.
I actually argue that Finn could have similar dissociative experiences, or at least represent them in some way.
*note on terminology: I'm trying to use neutral and intuitive sounding terms to make my argument easier to digest, but I'll include a small glossary for anyone who wants to know the correct language to use.
someone who has multiple identities - system
the quality of having multiple identities - plurality, systemhood
the individual identities - system member, headmate, system mate, alter (alter is used by some people but not universally)
to be in control of the body - front
to change who is in control of the body - switch
a mental location visitable by identities - headspace, inner world (note this isn't exclusive to systems, but systems experience it more commonly)
6:58 this little leg reach though is adorable as hell!
Hehehehe so true
I think that the magic puddle dimension was caused by a worm hole passing between the two dimensions for a short time like book-o explained in that one lich episode, this is also what happened in the pillow world episode.
Correct! That's what I was trying to get people to understand, so, I'm glad someone got it. You absolute legendary viewer
@@HeadCasey Yeah, im really into the science behind adventure time
My favorite BMO moment was when BMO drops from above and lands on Finn,exclaiming "BMO Chop! If this were a real attack,you would've been dead."
And then sometime later on in the series,BMO actually ends up killing Jake with a heart stopping technique lmao.
It's brilliant, truly BMO has some of the best moments in the entire show 🤣
"But we haven't gone through any portals. Bmo would know."
Yeah, to me this moment reinforced the idea that BMO has a portal button 😅 why else would BMO randomly be an expert on portals?
@@HeadCasey oh wow oh ya YOU ACCUALLY RESPONDED OMG WOW YAY AHHHHHHHH
I'm always happy to respond to the fans, y'all fuel me to keep making videos 😁
I can't thank you enough for the support and motivation you give me from being a commenting fan
@@HeadCasey YAY
BMO with Jake's secret true power would be an interesting chaotic multiverse
That is very true, although I worry BMO controlling reality would cause major inconsistencies 😅
Like the rules of the world yesterday won't be the same rules today because BMO changed his mind and has a new idea for a more fun way for reality to work 🤣
@@HeadCasey true but that would be a confusing interesting show ideea. A person who's dreams and imagination is the whole existance of the universe. But that person has a wide creativity with changing ideas over time
@@HeadCasey but overall it would he just a show that has no continuity or correlation for more than a few episodes
@@Davidutul that's true. The final ultimate plot twist to my A.I Multiverse series might just be that the entire thing was just a story that BMO is telling the Snail 🤣
I'd love to see more shows too like adventure time :>
Ok well I do have some other shows in mind so stay turned because I will start steering away from Adventure Time later in the year and start doing more theories on other shows soon
Bravest Warriors?
I wonder if any other episodes of Adventure Time aren't reliably narrated.
Oh many of them. Take every Fionna and Cake story that wasn't on a VHS tape, all the "fan fic" versions of a Fionna and Cake story are horribly unreliable in narration 😅
I don't think it's fair to automatically assume Football is an imaginary friend of sorts. After all, BMO is a sentient artificial construct. Who's to say, intentionally or not, he didn't just make another one within his own software?
Alright fair play, but it does still seem pretty dodgy to me 😅
@@HeadCasey I'm just saying, given the nature of BMO's existence, if BMO thinks Football is real, and he has his own desires apart from, even contrary to BMO's, I don't see how that is all that different from just being real. The closest real life parallel to this situation would be DID, which really the same arguments could be made on both sides.
To be honest, I was always shocked after I watched the episode "guardians of sunshine". Like, most people just take it as classic season 1 and 2 odd shenanigans. But even after finishing the show I was still curious about that pocket dimension inside BMO, how they didn't explored it again? Why he didn't use that against powerful enemies? How many monsters did he captured? Wish we can get an official explanation in later episodes or spin offs
I agree, I would love some more details and answers to this stuff...
But unless BMO comes up in the Fionna and Cake show, the only answers we have are the ones in my videos 🤷♀️
I’d always assumed that like many other season 1/2 episodes it is dubiously canon at best. There’s a lot of instances where something that should be world changing happens offhand in an early episode like the multiple times Finn and Jake get access to some sort of magic. Of course it can be fun to theorize on how these episodes could be canon, but functionally speaking, in the writer’s room I’m fairly sure they’re just not
@@frimi8593 if it happened in the show, it's canon. If it didn't make sense in season 1 or 2, they snuck in little Easter eggs later to address how the early stuff fits into the canon.
Also they do reference random episodes from the early show.
Like the time Ice King married Jake's Butt, that totally comes up again later in the show for no reason other than to just re-establish that "despite how weird it was, it was indeed canon"
@@HeadCasey yes they do make reference to a lot of earlier episodes but also a lot of the stuff that happened before the writers had a well established world explicitly doesn’t come back ever. Like it’s pretty safe to say that Finn and Jake don’t have magic powers from the episode Wizard (Every time I rewatch it I’m surprised at the lack of indication that they lost their magic powers at the end, they just stop using them). Similarly, though it easily could be canon, there’s never any reference to that episode about Finn and Jake looking for cool armor which also incidentally has magic powers. And probably most damningly, the treehouse is surely never ripped from the ground and absolutely torn apart by a massive slug (and I should really hope not because that kinda makes that strong emotional beat in the finale a lot less impactful). The slug does put the tree house back in the end but it is still visibly destroyed and in later episodes the tree is seen to be very much alive and rooted into the ground.
Also, while it is a fun idea that the guest animated episodes are alternate realities, the fully guess animated episodes (a glitch is a glitch, bad jubies, food chain, and water park prank) are all distinctly noncanon.
@@frimi8593 1. Finn still has magic. He uses it to make fire in the first Banana Man episode.
2. They still have the armour, it's seen as Easter egg in their treehouse in later episodes.
3. The treehouse is often destroyed and put back together. The magic repairs to the treehouse are easily explained away by Jake's imagination powers. As soon as he imagines that "the treehouse is fine now" suddenly it is.
4. Just because it didn't happen to "our Finn and Jake" doesn't mean that guest animated episodes "didn't happen" because they did totally happen in the multiverse, that's literally the entire point of the Beyond the Grotto episode, so show that portals to "guest animated worlds" do actually exist.
3:07 this toaster scene is weird af
Heh, I'm glad someone noticed. It's super weird 🤣
“HIYAA” sent meee😂😂 love it your lore is always so good
Thank you, I try to tell the story in a quirky way that makes me laugh when I rewatch it so I'm glad my story telling style made you laugh too 🤣
Also maybe The Purpose of the BMO Multidimensional Subspace wasn't actually meant to be a prison but a way to safely transport people and items by breaking them down into information.
Now that is genius, like a Digital Storage Space... But then because BMO has imagination he thought up a new purpose for that space...
But wait though, AMO can generate and launch orbs that resemble Dark Matter from Futurama.
So what's BMOs main attack? 🤔
Mo for sure built his robots to conquer, and he also built them to be Video Game Consoles for some reason.
AMO only had one game (Hangman) and one level of the game 😅
So clearly AMO did not have the ability to generate up new games like BMO can...
However there is a range of detail to BMOs games, like when BMO invented "Conversation Parade" but it was boring and basically nothing.
So using the creatures trapped in the DigiSpace is perfect for BMO to create a real game for Finn and Jake like The Guardians of Sunshine 🤷♀️
Beautiful video again!! Always love to hear about the cutest little robot even with the odd morals hehe
Yeah BMO is one cute little questionable robot for sure 😅
Criminally underrated subscriber count
Be sad for BMO, after it's adventures with finn and jake, it has left itself in sleep mode. You can see by the absence of artifacts not relating to it's time with finn and jake. Everything in its room is only from the time it spent with finn and jake. Nothing else exists except its fake beard.
Alright good job, you made me sad for BMO. 😅

@@HeadCasey I would def support you should jus go for it even though your just getting started I see you blowing up soon!
Beyond the Grotto is noncanon, like all the guest animation episodes. Also shows from Season 1 and 2 arent REALLY fully canon (as the writers werent really focusing on plot like that). I like the touch on BMO being imaginative, but im not a huge fan of the bmo is "evil" thing.
Beyond the Grotto is Canon. The episode literally starts and ends in normal animated Ooo with a specific portal leading to the place with the guest animated stuff.
Also all the guest animated episodes are canon to the multiverse.
Just because they didn't happen to "our Finn and Jake" doesn't mean they didn't still happen, as proven by Farm World.
As for season 1 and 2 being "non-canon" well actually if it was in the show, then it was canon. I have decent answers to every question that connects the mysteries of the early seasons to the later canon of the show. So you don't get to simply decide that entire episodes aren't canon just because you don't understand how they fit the narrative.
Yeah. Adventure time characters represent different mental illnesses like PB for sociopath and we have this BMO Delusional Hallucinations
Interesting idea... So what does Jake represent then? Lust, Greed or Gluttony? 🤔
i think bubble was real cause jake interacted with them and while jake didnt here them a non sentient bubble would follow bmo like that
this need more like than it should

Shouldn't BMO have reality bending magic since the hole universe/multi verse is nothing but a dream?
No, who said reality was just a Dream?
@@HeadCasey TrueLocalWeirdo did a pretty solid theory video on the topic. "Universal imagination"
One of the reasons the majority of magic users in the show have some sort of personality defect is likely because they are aware of the true nature of the universe. They must be to use magic.
And knowing it's all just created by the minds of others manipulating the dream of the first being drives many insane.
@@FeedMeSalt As far as I know thats just his headcanon, I dont remember anything in the show about this
Yeah, I'm going with no.
Jake himself said "what if all of this was just some dudes dream... That would be dumb" and I agree with Jake
@@OmniversalInsect it's basically the only head cannon that makes any sense given the confirmed paradox in the show.
We know reality only exists because beings exist to witness it in adventure time.
So how did it start, if it always needs at least one being to view it to exist.
Argo, first dreamer.
Bmo is a different creature. Morality as we know it can't be applied to bmo the same way we apply and understand it amongst ourselves. As an artificial intelligence, he didn't have the same pressures that would shape his species with the innate morality we have. Bmo, although he can speak the same language as us, would not be able to understand right from wrong the way we do.
That is a very good point 😎
I think he is programmed with the same morality as a human child
That explains why bmo was one of black hat's customers.
I don't recall anyone named Black Hats in the show. Google didn't help either, it just tried to sell me hats
i love adventure time yt truly found my tribe
You are always welcome here
What is the episode BMO calls for bubble
The one where BMO goes looking for Moe. I think the episode is called "The More Moe you know"
I’ve seen every episode I thought cuz I never seen BMO kill Jake
BMO kills Jake in the episode "Ghost Fly" and it is a very funny episode. Highly recommend
@@HeadCasey thank u
Small thing but the fact you went out of your way to actually use all varieties of pronouns for BMO means a lot
Thank you for that comment, I got a lot of lash back for doing that even though it's completely true to BMO character
Omg guys it was the chicken that got bmo pregnant who was said to be hit ex in the noire episode
You mean Loraine? She appears later in the video for a moment or two 😏
I would like to build a BMO replica
You can do it, I believe in you 😎
This is a beast video
I hope that's a good thing 😅 haha
@@HeadCasey super beast
Of corse bemo can be evil any being that has free will has the capacity for horrible actions
Right, but the reason that's "shocking" is that BMO plays innocent, all the time. It's one cute little robot, so when it does do dark things most audience members just laugh off BMOs actions and give the free-pass based on "well it was cute"
BMO doesnt have dark secrets, he is just a little guy
Sounds like someone didn't watch the video. BMO for sure has secrets, and also isn't a real guy 🤔
3:49 they playing super hexagon 🤯
BMO isn’t delusional! They’re imaginative!
One can be both, as BMO is
Mo --- Mr House
They're the same picture.
Brilliant
the best nation is imagination ... the best system is a sound system
Very true words 😎
@@HeadCasey its graffitied under a bridge where i live ... for 30 yares noone tutched it , cuzz its true
@@BeelzeKid that is awesome, whoever wrote that there under the bridge is a true legend
Wouldnt switching make bmo fluid not neutral? Idk how these things work lol
You are right, that in today's world a person switching between genders would be called Gender Fluid, although the line greys a bit with BMO being a robot by default 🤔
Yes several of the comics and the official Art Book of Ooo label BMO has Gender Fluid, but some of the games and other merch have him listed as Gender Neutral sooooo
The only thing that is completely clear is that BMO is a robot who bends gender rules to suit its own needs 🤷♀️
That last sentence was a mess. I love bmo!
Tha last sentence 🤔 the shout-out to the art guy?
I do wonder...What if BMO is the Cosmic Dreamer?
It could be BMO, but I think it's far more likely to be Jake 🤷♀️
@@HeadCasey BMO is the most imaginative being we see in the show for good and ill.
While the only thing I can see going for Jake is that a version of him is Prizmos Host.
I mean, I literally made the videos that show that BMOs imagination has hard limits and doesn't impact reality, and I proved Jake's imagination has the untapped potential to do basically anything including rewriting the reality around him... also Fionna and Cake spoilers: BMO isn't even considered alive 🤦♀️ sure the episode "the orb" suggests that BMO can dream, but "Jerry" proves that BMO doesn't even count as sentient life. Seems like the cosmic dreamer should be someone who is actually capable of true dreaming.
Also this video we are literally commenting on proved that BMO is an unreliable narrator unable to even keep their memories straight for a few weeks. So if BMO dreamed up reality then there would be no continuity or logic anywhere to be seen in the world
*spoiler alert*
Bubble was just a bubble that haphazardly guided BMO home and the personification of air as “Air” was BMO coping with the loss. Hearing “forever, and ever, until the end of time” was chilling. I know the bubble wasnt fully imagined because Jake popped it.
maybe the bubble talking was BMOs imagination
BMO scales on multiversal
Wait, is it ooo or earth? 1:14
Ooo is the name of a landmass on Earth.
Like how Australia is a landmass on Earth in real life.
The planet is still earth, but the place on Earth where they live is Ooo
I arrived 2 hours after upload
That's still pretty quick 😎 also I might have released it an hour earlier than people expected...
Whoops, my bad
Who notice the painting @6:44
It's a good painting for sure 😎
The fact of an ai robot that is sentiant and delusional is wierd
That is pretty weird. I agree 😅
You’ve got quite the voice, sir!
Cheers lass, more audio coming soon. Stay tuned. 😎
