          AVGN is Angry Video Game Nerd. He’s a youtuber that has been reviewing shitty old video games for almost 20 years at this point; he’s basically the originator of the “anti-nostalgia reviewer” genre of youtuber. In one episode (I forget which one, but it’s a very old one), he said he’d rather have a buffalo take a diarrhea dump in his ear and eat the rotten asshole of a roadkill skunk than play the game that was the subject of that episode. And yeah, that ended up being one of his most famous lines.

      The Angry Videogame Nerd was a character played by James Rolfe, starring in a YouTube series of the same name from 2004 onwards. He would show off his outstandingly large collection of physical copies of videogames, primarily for the NES, and each episode was a (obscenity-filled) review of a different terrible game.

      The series is still on YouTube if you can stomach the rather vulgar humor. There’s nothing actually offensive, just… a lot more creative obscenities like the ones in his theme song.
