__NOTOC__
==Joke==
This is an arrangement of "INDUSTRY BABY" in the style of the advertised track. At 0:58, the visuals fade into a parody of the "Fans Explaining" Montages / X Slander meme, which often uses "INDUSTRY BABY" as a background song, with the topics being of various parts of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles. At 1:53, the visuals fade back to the thumbnail before the rip fades out.
Time	Text 	Visual 	Explanation
0:59	knuckles listening to eggman describe his plan (he seems like a trustworthy fellow) 	The "Staring Kanye" GIF. 	Dr. Eggman lies to Knuckles about who he is and says that Sonic is evil.
1:01	sonic harnessing the power of the winds to make his hitbox slightly bigger 	A clip of "Backspin Basketball Flies Off Dam" by Veritasium. 	The slander references the Insta-Shield move, which makes Sonic's hitbox slightly bigger after the player jumps, then presses the jump button again while in midair.
1:03	he was forced to beat the marble garden zone act 2 boss as tails 	The Crying Seal meme. 	The Tails version of the Marble Garden Zone Act 2 boss fight has a reputation for being one of the hardest in the game due to requiring a flying Tails with significant inertia to hit an also flying and quickly-moving Egg Mobile from its bottom.
1:06	angel island zone 	A GIF of a sped up skeleton burning with flames surrounding him. 	Angel Island ends up burning up due to a brigade of Fire Breaths.
1:08	players when they get the slot machine bonus (they will get triple eggmans) 	Clip of from the music video for "Get Your Shine On" by Birdman ft. Lil Wayne of Birdman rubbing his hands together while looking out a window.	Getting three Dr. Eggmans on the slot machine results in the player losing 100 rings.
1:10	trapped in the barrel room trying to move it 	The Happy Happy Happy Cat meme. 	Carnival Night Zone Act 2 has a single barrel that, unlike the other barrels in the level, requires the player to hit the up and down arrows to move it. The barrel is notorious for getting players stuck, to the point of being known by fans as "The Barrel of Doom", due to requiring the player to figure out its different mechanics.
1:12	kids when they get to ice cap zone (this is the high point of their lives) 	The Magikarp Guy meme. 	Ice Cap Zone Act 1 begins with Sonic snowboarding, and this also associates with the music in the act too, which is a banger to fans.
1:14	the ghost in sandopolis zone act 2 	A clip from "SML Movie: Junior The Simp!" by SML. 	At full darkness in Sandopolis Zone Act 2, Hyudoros, which are ghosts, swoop down and attack the player.
1:16	"hey who wants to play competition mode" 	A clip from The Angry Birds Movie 2 of Red growing up lonely. 	Competition Mode is generally less popular among fans due to having smaller sprites, weaker physics, and much simpler and shorter stages in comparison to the default mode.
1:18	every unique blue spheres level 	A clip from Toy Story 2 of an aisle full of identical Buzz Lightyear toys. 	References the unusually high amount of different levels that are of the Blue Spheres levels as well as how similar they all are to each other.
1:21	the player waiting for hot mobile to kill itself 	A clip of Mr. Bean waiting from the movie Mr. Bean's Holiday. 	The Hot Mobile cannot be directly attacked, and its boss fight is based on the player simply staying alive until it accidentally destroys itself with its projectiles.
1:23	egg robo to knuckles 	The "Throw A Grenade Avori GIF" GIF. 	Knuckles' story mode begins with an Egg Robo throwing a bomb at him.
1:25	mecha sonic mark ii fans explaining why an easy boss is actually cool 	The "Ibai Llanos Explaining Things" GIF. 	Mecha Sonic Mk. II has a fan following as a character despite his boss fight not being especially challenging.
1:27	sega when super emeralds 	A clip of Agent J using his neuralyzer from Men in Black. 	The Super Emeralds and the Hyper transformation they grant as a reward for collecting them only ever appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles.
1:30	the sonic & knuckles cartridge watching me attach divine sealing to it 	The "Willem Dafoe Looking Up" GIF. 	Refers to how the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge must be attached with the Sonic 3 cartridge for it to work, with the joking implication being that Divine Sealing, an unlicensed pornographic Genesis/Mega Drive game, would make for an especially strange combination with Sonic & Knuckles.
1:32	groundhog day fans when hedgehog day fans walk in 	The "Vince McMahon Surprised" GIF. 	Groundhog Day and Hedgehog Day are both observed on February 2nd, the latter being the release date of Sonic 3 back in 1994.
1:34	the player watching big arms kill them as super sonic 	The "3D saul goodman" video. 	Due to an error, Big Arms is the only boss capable of harming Super Sonic in standalone Sonic 3.
1:36	doomsday zone 	This sequence from the Merrie Melodies cartoon "Robin Hood Daffy" 	Refers to the high chances of the player hitting the rocks that appear.
1:38	michael jackson when he heard the genesis soundchip 	The "Nileseyy Niles Disappearing" GIF. 	References Brad Buxer's claim that Michael Jackson ended his involvement in the soundtrack for Sonic 3 after hearing what his compositions sounded like using the Sega Genesis soundchip (which has been denied by Roger Hector).
1:40	vgm composers hearing the sonic 3 act 1 boss music (they will use the samples in their songs)	A clip of the SpongeBob Squarepants episode "The Camping Episode" of Patrick Star is writing down Squidward's actions. 	The advertised track uses several external samples that have since gained popularity among modern video game music composers.
1:43	average hydrocity fan 	A clip from "itsmefraz episode 7" by Fraz. 	"X Slander" videos usually end with a "Average Fan vs. Average Enjoyer" meme. The slanders also reference the popular debate in the Sonic fandom over the pronunciation of "Hydrocity".
1:46	average hydrocity enjoyer 	A GIF sequence of the "GigaChad" meme. 	"X Slander" videos usually end with a "Average Fan vs. Average Enjoyer" meme. The slanders also reference the popular debate in the Sonic fandom over the pronunciation of "Hydrocity".
1:48	doilus stage 	A GIF of the "Doilus Stage" glitch. 	Refers to a glitch that occurs when trying to exit the Gumball bonus stage after accessing it from the level select menu, where the "Bonus Stage" title card corrupts into "Doilus Stage" upon reloading the stage, hence the name.
