Hahahaha. I love it. Although some of it borders on too much...
And I seriously think that dude is messed up.
My friend insists that my alter ego is Mr. Regular, because I go off on very similar tangents or get equally creative with insults. Frightens me a little, because the guy is definitely unhinged. My all time favorite is still when he goes to Cars & Coffee. "Future collectible, future collectible, future collectible, academic probation"
I just find it mainly annoying. The Jetta episode was pretty good but I still can't finish most of the videos because of his little tangents.

I'm deep into my 30's and I think it's hysterical
The videos where he goes nuts without mentioning vaginas, finger-banging, sticking things in one's dick, farts, anal insertion, sex acts, and pedophilia are the best.
Seriously: the America montage when discussing a boxy Suburban? Great! Triangles TRIANGLES triangles? Classic! I like expensive things in small portioned packages for niche markets? Yup! This is like finger-banging a girl while her pastor is there? Um...no.
Aaaaaand now these words will appear next to my username in a google search.

I'm 45 and I think Mr. Regular is a demented genius. Sometimes I roll my eyes at the poop jokes, but overall I love his stuff.

Let's just say I've got a few years on you. Like more than a dozen. And don't get me wrong, parts of it are chuckle-worthy, but mostly I found it annoying.

I'm closer to you than 40 and I find it hilarious.

Maybe I just didn't understand it. For instance, what's the connection with Car Reviews? I could not discern any relationship between his disjointed scatological ramblings and "car reviews". I confess to not watching much television. Maybe that's it?
To each his own. Party on!
The 4Runner review was borderline genious. So much so that I nearly got a licence plate that said NO MOAB.
Same can be said for the BRAT reveiw.

Watch some of the full reviews not just the highlights. Try the E30, Miata and Volvo 240

33 here, and, uhhh, let's say that I just stopped them all after a few annoying seconds.
Really, if you find these highlight reels too much, go watch the full things. I think it was the Porsche Cayman where he went all Hunter S Thompson on the dialog. It's awesome. also the Bob Costas, fart and poop jokes are a tiny amount if not missing completely in many full reviews.

I've tried to watch many of the videos because they pop up in my recommended feed all the time. The only one I finished completely was the Jetta. But then again I find motorweek highly entertaining so his videos are really not targeted towards me.
Interspersed between the poop jokes is a good bit of insightful commentary about the cultural significance of each car; what it meant for it's era, and what it means now. It's meant to be funny, but there's some good "make you think" stuff in there, too. But you have to watch the full reviews. The Dodge Avenger is probably my favorite.

Yeah, his review of the one Buell enduro bike was actually really insightful into the rise of Buell as a company and it's actual downfall and the foul humor was largely missing.
