The Tourettes Guy is a series of YouTube videos following the eponymous Danny, a foul-tempered and foul-mouthed man with "Tourette's syndrome" - though his behavior is likely more influenced by all the booze he drinks. His friends and family often show up, but aside from his equally foul-mouthed father, they are only heard from offscreen and never seen.
For a while, it was believed that Danny had died in a car accident. But later on, new videos were posted and his website claimed that he was still alive and had just been in jail the whole time.
- The Alcoholic: Danny, who is almost always seen with a beer bottle. The official website claims that his behavior is likely influenced more by his drinking than his Tourette's.
- Ass Shove:
- Danny claims he wants to shove a broom up the ass of the person who named Fashion Bug.
- He also claims during a bowling game that he wants to shove a can of Pringles up a preacher's ass.
- Also, apparently something happens when Alex Trebek has a picture of a giraffe in his ass during an earthquake.
- Atomic F-Bomb: Several, but a few notable examples are:.
- Yelling "FUUUUUUUUUCK!" after the The Police version of "Every Breath You Take" played while he was on hold with Colgate (he hoped it was the Puff Daddy cover).
- Yelling "SHIIIIIIIIIIT!" offscreen, which synched up perfectly with Mufasa falling off a cliff on the TV.
- At his son's job interview, after telling him multiple times he didn't want some Twizzlers his son was eating, he screams "BUTT FUCK!!" The person napping nearby was not amused.
- Yelling "FUUUUUUUUUCK!" after crashing headfirst into the chandelier.
- As the cameraman drives away from the Tourette's Guy's dad as quickly as possible, he screams "You cocksuckerrrrrrrrr!!!!", complete with Doppler effect.
- Author Appeal: Including Danny's shirt, there are a lot of references to breakfast cereal. And almost all the videos involve phones.
- Badass Beard: Danny's dad, who bears a striking resemblance to Santa Claus. Danny lands into a bit of trouble when he points this out.
- Badass Grandpa: Danny's dad.
- Belligerent Sexual Tension: Between him and his ex-wife, Shirlena. "BITCH! I love you."

- Chew Toy: The titular Tourette's Guy.
- Cluster F-Bomb: If you couldn't figure this one out already...
- One example: Danny carrying a hot casserole dish without oven mitts. When he gets back up after putting it down on the table, he hits his head on a chandelier. Leave room and cue Atomic F-Bomb!
- Comedic Sociopathy: Oh so much.
- Comically Missing the Point: In one video, Danny is watching an exercise program. He isn't exactly exercising. He's moving the top half of his body while sitting down and eating chips.

- Erotic Eating: Strangely invoked - after commenting on a woman described as a lesbian "that just means she likes what I like", Danny bites into a corn dog.
- Even the Subtitler Is Stumped: In "Bird in the House", Danny goes running into the other room after his son tells him there's a bird in the house, yelling some of his usual curses before shouting something unintelligible ("???").
- Everything's Worse with Bees: In one episode, Danny gets attacked by a swarm of bees while he's mowing the lawn. He handles it about as well as you'd think. ("AW BOB SAGET! Oh SHIT!")
- Funny Background Event: Danny shouted "PISS!" so loud that the top page of a wall calendar came loose and fell back down, changing the calendar to the previous month.
- Gag Dub: During one episode, Danny's son is watching The Lion King while Danny himself is cussing people out on the phone in the next room. They sync up surprisingly well.

Danny: Are we gonna fuck, or what? |
- Sir Swearsalot: Naturally.
- Slapstick: Danny is on the receiving end of a lot physical comedy: his chair falls over, his beer spews foam on him, a bird flies into his face, he bangs his head on a chandelier, he drunkenly stumbles down stairs, a supermarket cardboard standup falls on him, and more. The cameraman sometimes takes punishment, too.

- "EAT MY SHORT DICK!""
- When All You Have Is a Hammer: When a bird flies into the house, Danny's reaction is to first try and down it with a thrown beer bottle[1] and then try swatting it with a broom... in a room filled with fragile objects. The results are what you'd expect them to be.
