ROBBIE ROTTEN??!?!

This is God's greatest gift to mankind.

[ded]

When the villain is more lovable than the good guys

[C_H_handle]

Surprising how well this character is able to play off of himself like that.
He's like Jim Carrey if he exclusively did Improv Comedy.

[Fredfredbug]

The actor must have absolutely loved his role.

[TheCanihavaname]

I don't know why but when he laughs and it plays that squeaky sound effect thing it's the most adorable thing ever

[sircrazzy]

If you look closely, the ice cream man is actually ROBBIE ROTTEN????

[WilfredCthulu]

I love how he's just casually like "Well, what to do next?" as if this is just a normal part of his everyday life.

[jamesquinonez]

That ice cream legitimately looks delicious.

[SirKrigeon]

You were expecting Sportaflop...

But it was I, ROBBIE ROTTEN

[Kerokittycat]

HOW DID HE PASS THE ICECREAM TO HIMSELF WITHOUT TOUCHING IT

[aceyspud]

If I had reality warping powers, I know I'd just be doing this kind of shit.

[Mona-]

So is no one going to talk about how amazing this guy's acting is, especially considering how he's in a kid's show?

0:17 There is no one holding the ice cream cone. Robbie Rotten is a master of telekinesis.

[jamesroberts]

He's buying ice cream from a closed ice cream stand...

[imseanpatrick]

This scene represents Robbie Rotten's personal insecurities. He orders a big ice cream as a sort of comfort, to forget about the pressures he puts on himself. The moustache he wears behind the counter reflects the "disguise" that he puts on for others, to show us that he is not true to himself.

The moustache falls off to reveal Robbie's true identity: One that shocks and confuses him.

[LunaMoon]

The fuck was this show....like this man is a fucking Gem

[okaythen]

I actually find this show a lot more entertaining now then when I was a child

[starry.siofra]

i have to watch this at least once a day

[SargentCookiez]

This masterpiece is actually subtly genius. It's actually about Robbie Rotten and his narcissistic image of his perfect self. He goes up to the ice cream vendor (who is his ideal version of himself) and asks for something pleasurable. Naturally, being the perfect version of Robbie, the vendor is able to create something for Robbie that pleases him to no end for free, fuelling Robbie Rotten's image of himself as a powerful and kind person. However, the ice cream vendor's disguise fails, and Robbie Rotten realises that despite his perfect version's power and gratitude, he is still Rotten deep down. This is further confirmed by the "What did you expect, Sportaflop?" line, considering Sportacus is a successful and wholesome person within the show. But instead of being afraid of his doomed nature, Robbie Rotten decides to laugh away the pain, enjoying the pleasure given to him by his perfect form and not thinking about it any more than that. Robbie Rotten's inner demon is himself, and, knowing that he could never be truly cured, he chooses to ignore it by only focusing on his narcism.

I'd like an ice cream about this high!

*gets ice cream 2x that size*

[GabeV]

It's such a silly scene, but I can't help but laugh at it. It's just so _innocent_, I love it. Stefan is too good for this world, too pure.
