Alex Jones/YMMV

• Crazy Awesome: To his followers and to people that think despite the vitriol Jones is mostly innoffensive and may have some good points about the world behind five layers of pure crazy.
• Critical Research Failure: More or less the defining trope of Jones. One of his favorite tactics is to quote a speculative column stating one person's opinion speculating about the future, and citing it as fact of things which are already happening NOW. This of course is just a subcategory of his specialty: taking everything completely out of any semblance of context.
  • When quoting an article about a scientist who proposed that humans would eventually split into an attractive race and an ugly, goblin-like race ala The Time Machine, Alex claimed that this was proof that the Elite were going to use eugenics to breed themselves into a beautiful blond, blue-eyed race and everyone else into ugly goblins they could laugh at. Aside from mentioning nothing of eugenics, the article mentioned nothing of blond-hair and blue eyes, but described the "pretty" race as having "coffee-colored skin," which would imply brown hair and brown eyes.
  • Not to mention that in the The Time Machine it was the former upper classes that become the small weak species, while the working class became the strong, industrious Morlocks.
  • 33 is pi!
• Crossing the Line Twice: His show is all about this, but he seems to have trouble with the "twice" part.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: His failed predictions.
• Memetic Mutation: Given his notoriety as an over-the-top ham, a number of remixes were made from his crazy rants.
• Narm Charm: Arguably part of his schtick: his rants are WAY too over-the-top for some to take seriously.
• Nightmare Fuel: Aside from Alex's dire predictions of impending doom any minute now, Alex himself is absolutely terrifying when he goes into one of his screaming rants... especially when he starts screaming about how he wants to smash the heads of the NWO guys against the sidewalk and bite chunks out of their flesh. Holy crap.
  • On the June 20, 2011 broadcast, he went into a truly epic rant about how They are killing our women and feminizing society and that people who blindly follow the NWO will be shot in the head and dumped in a ditch.
  • Alex Jones does not endorse violence.
  • This video... This goddamn video...
  • Alex Jones as the Joker, yelling about how Obama is trying to kill us all. Must be seen to be believed.
• Nightmare Retardant: On the other hand, a lot of the stuff he claims (like Obama and the Queen of England being lizard-aliens and and a Government Conspiracy behind poisoning water that has "TURNED THE FREAKIN' FROGS GAY!") tend to be kind of silly.
