Chewing Character

***The Chewing Character*** is a mischevious prank organized by Zach Hadel to gaslight and troll his friends. The most notable victim of the Chewing Character is (currently) Joshua Tomar. The prank is set up as Zach "scrolling" through a device, muttering something decieving about the news or a strange phenomenon he witnesses with interesting descriptions. He then grabs an interested person and shows them the screen as if it is an urgent matter, only to show nothing more than a gif of a brown claymation character open-mouthedly chewing on a large wad of bubblegum. This is aimed to spike controversy towards the victim in the form of gaslighting and fooling.

## Appearance

The character has a light brown colour to its skin, with a darker color under its blue eyelidded eyes. Its puffy cheeks and rapidly opening and closing mouth implies it is chewing, an apparent interest in Zach's attention of unnecessarily obvious detail (Other characters in Zach's interest include but not limit to simple movements such as walking, breathing, pointing, dancing, smiling or blinking).

## History

The first appearence of the Chewing Character was in both episodes of the Sonic the Hedgehog playthrough. **Chris O'Neill** claims the character was from the television series *Creature Comforts*, and despite being animated by Aardman Animations studio, that is not the case.

The Chewing Character is referred as Brown, and originates from a different Aardman property: the short Nickelodeon series *Purple and Brown*. The show revolves around Brown and his companion Purple causing mischevious shenanagins around themselves (including more sinister approaches such as the murder of Green).

This gif originated from an episode of Purple and ~~Brown~~ titled *"Bubblegum"*, following the two protagonists fooling around with Chewing Gum. The gif has been notoriously spread around in 2008, presumably the "Chewing Character Prank" has spread around perhaps before the concept was titled.

In the first episode of the T'ai Fu playthrough, Chris calls Tomar a "Chewing Character" after he mentions chewing his M&M's.

## Merchandise

In the official OneyPlays merchandise page, a Vinyl Pin of Joshua Tomar drawn as a Chewing Character is currently on sale. It is unknown if Tomar ever agreed, consented or gave permission for his trademarked character remodeled and sold as a traumatizing figure.

## Trivia

> "He looks like he's hurting in that, I'm telling you, Tomar. I'm telling you Tomar, he looks like he's hurt in that picture like his eyes are closing in pain. His eyes are like closing in that gif, his eyes are, like, closing from discomfort" - Zach gaslighting Tomar.
