Plot

Mario is about to go to Walmart to buy a couple things and asks if he can trust Jeffy to stay home alone. Although Jeffy says yes, Mario decides to take Jeffy with him after Jeffy begins asking random offending questions, such as if he can defecate in the sink and bathtub.

On his way to Walmart, a hobo comes out of nowhere and ambushes them asking for change. In haste, Mario yells at the man and calls him the homophobic slur faggot. Jeffy overhears Mario use the word and begins repeating it. Mario scolds Jeffy and tells him to not say the word, but Jeffy resumes using it regardless.

In Walmart, Mario is about to get a "white" light bulb in which Tyrone notices and gets offended. He says he should get a black light bulb instead, reasoning that Mario buying a white light bulb would be considered racist. Meanwhile, in the cart, Jeffy says the word faggot again, which offends Tyrone and making him think he's black and gay. When Mario tries to tell Jeffy not to say faggot or anything else, Jeffy says it anyways and makes Tyrone beat up Mario.

After returning home, Jeffy continues saying faggot and Mario calls Rosalina to help. Eventually, Mario threatens to spank Jeffy, much to the horror of Rosalina. However, Jeffy tells Mario "Then do it, faggot." Furious, Mario decides enough is enough and begins spanking him in rage while shouting "You made me do this!" and Jeffy yelling "RAPE!".

Rosalina becomes tearful and very angry at Mario and calls him a "child beater" to which Mario responds by calling Jeffy a "retard". She goes to get Jeffy to rest, but Jeffy begins claiming that Mario raped him, saying Mario stuck his fingers in his butt, and twirled them around and then sniffed them. Rosalina puts Jeffy in his bed, but when she leaves, Jeffy takes out his iPhone and dials 911 on Mario.

While Mario tries to tell Rosalina that all he did was spank Jeffy, Brooklyn Guy arrives furious, claiming that they received a call from Jeffy that Mario raped him but Mario replies saying that it's a lie. Brooklyn Guy asks Rosalina if Mario raped Jeffy and she tearfully says that Mario spanked him on the butt very hard and multiple times so Mario gets arrested.

As the news is talking about Mario being falsely accused of child abuse, rape, and vehicular assault, Mario eventually comes back, but he claims to be a registered sex offender and a felon, as well as the loss of his driver's license, his job and the ability to vote or own a gun of any kind.

Rosalina then shows him the news, in which Hansel is interviewed and tells a false story about getting run over by Mario, with a fractured skull and a broken arm. When the news ends, The Dr. Goodman Show comes on and Goodman interviews Jeffy about how he was raped. Goodman insists that "Mario is a faggot" after hearing about Jeffy's story, not knowing it was a lie. The video ends with Mario, distraught, saying that all he did was spank Jeffy, followed by Rosalina saying that he "didn't have been a faggot.", causing Mario to scream in rage as the video ends.

Why It's Bad

  1. The base premise and story is very unoriginal as it's been done in numerous television series, but a lot of them were better executed than this.
  2. This video is known for being a harsh Mario torture episode and is easily one of, if not the most infamous ones along with "Locked Out":
    1. Everyone except Mario is extremely unlikable here as Mario is constantly tortured, belittled, and accused of stuff he didn't actually do, such as the insults Jeffy said to Tyrone which Tyrone kept on getting angry over Mario for the simplest things, practically everyone believing Jeffy's false claims that raped him, even though all Mario did was spank him after he wouldn't stop saying the word faggot.
    • While it has been pointed out that Mario is somewhat responsible for starting the problem due to him having the poor sense to call a homeless fan a faggot in front of Jeffy, the severity of the punishment he receives is very disproportionate and generally comes off as more annoying and painful to watch than amusing.
    1. Speaking of which, this webisode is where Jeffy was at his absolute worst, due to his constantly overusing the word "faggot", getting Mario in trouble and even arrested.
    2. Rosalina is also unlikable as well, as she falsely labels Mario with pedophilia but knew what actually happened. To add insult to injury, she was rude to Mario and made him go insane in the end.
  3. The Black Lights Matter joke, while the only funny joke in this entire video, drags on for far too long due to Jeffy saying "faggot" with Mario being falsely accused of insulting Tyrone while Mario was just wanting to get a white light bulb instead of a black one.
  4. The constant use of the word "faggot" is the video's main joke, and it gets grating fast, especially considering the fact it was said 40 times in the entire episode.
  5. We have one of the most infamous moments of SuperMarioLogan history that made that episode so hated: After Jeffy calls 9-1-1, Brooklyn T. Guy comes in his police uniform, claiming that they received a call that the father was beating and raping Jeffy, although Mario truthfully says otherwise, Rosalina then literally goes to tell him that Mario likes to beat Jeffy all the time causing him to get arrested right away. What's even worse is that after he gets arrested, the news begins talking about how Mario was accused of child abuse, rape and vehicular assault, Mario eventually comes back, but he claims to be a registered sex offender and a felon, as well as losing his driver's license and the ability to vote and/or own a gun of any kind.
  6. In the Breaking News segment, the word "Mascot" is misspelled as "Macot".
  7. Horrible ending (and arguably one of the worst endings of any SML video): Rosalina shows Mario the news, in which Hansel is interviewed as he starts lying about getting run over by Mario, complete with a fake fractured skull and broken arm. When the news ends, the Dr. Goodman show (which is a Dr. Phil parody starring Mr. Goodman) starts and Dr. Goodman interviews Jeffy himself about how he was raped. Goodman insists that "Mario is a faggot" after hearing about Jeffy's story. The video ends with Mario saying that all he did was spank Jeffy, followed by Rosalina saying that he "didn't have to be a faggot." as Mario snaps.
  8. There are several other unfunny jokes, such as Brooklyn Guy claiming "people with mustaches are clearly rapists" even though he has a mustache, which comes off as not only a failed attempt at irony, but also comes off as hypocrisy.

Redeeming Qualities

  1. While just about every character is unlikable, Mario is the only somewhat sympathetic character, since it is at least commonly agreed he suffered a disproportionate punishment relative to his actions.
  2. This episode does teach a good lesson about the consequences of swearing/using slurs next to children.
  3. The Black Lights Matter joke is funny, though it can be argued the joke drags on too long.

Reception

"Jeffy's Bad Word!" was met with universal disdain by the majority of the SuperMarioLogan fanbase and it's generally considered to be one of, if not the worst episode of SML in general, along with "Locked Out" (at least during its initial release). Logan Thirtyacre openly apologized for the quality of the video and has admitted he regrets creating it.

Ironically enough, Elaina Keyes liked this video, who was upset to see it universally despised by fans.

This is actually one of the very few videos where Thirtyacre openly apologized for the quality of the video. The backlash was actually so large, Logan not only apologized, but offered to take it down and upload a better video the next day in order to make up for this episode. Comparatively speaking, in the time this video was released, the last time Logan thought about taking a video down was with "Black Yoshi's Girlfriend", which came out five years earlier.

References to this video's reception have also been included in videos like "Happy Merry Christmas", where Mario, seemingly being used as Logan's mouthpiece, addresses the video by calling it "part of his two most disliked videos" and admitting that since they make two videos a week, some of them are gonna suck.
