Jeffy (SML)

'DISCLAIMER: WE ARE NOT ABLEIST. MANY OF US RECEPTION WIKI USERS HAVE AUTISM. THIS IS MERELY CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM ON A CHARACTER WHO GIVES A NEGATIVE PORTRAYAL OF MENTAL DISABILITIES.'

'Note: Do not add the "Average Characters" category, or change the "Why He Sucks" to "Bad Qualities", or the "Redeeming Qualities" to "Good Qualities", respectively, as this character is not considered average, despite having numbers of reasons. Anyone who persists will be dealt with.'

Jeffy Jeffy François, or simply referred to as Jeffy, is one of the main characters of the SML series. He is the adoptive son of Mario and Rosalina. The character was created by Logan Thirtyacre and Elaina Keyes. He first appeared in the SML episode "Mario The Babysitter!".

Why He Sucks

 * 1) Jeffy is a disabled stereotype, which has attracted controversy & even disrespects disabled people.
 * 2) * Despite this, Logan has stated multiple times that Jeffy is not actually disabled and is supposed to be just "stupid" when there was evidence to show how contradicting it is. Such as in "Jeffy's Stupid Home Video" confirming him to be mentally-disabled.
 * 3) He also has an annoyingly stupid dialect to his voice that can be very shrill and whiny when he is yelling, so much that it ranges from mediocre at best (where he isn't raising his voice) and very annoying at worst, his yelling/shouting/shrieks being the worst offender.
 * 4) He has a very ugly character design (although he was originally created by Beacon Art Studios by Eva Gronowitz from Etsy and not by Logan, the same person also made the original Jeffy that is used in Logan's videos and he is still very unappealing to look at).
 * 5) He has a pencil stuck up his nose like it's a quirk, which is actually considered VERY dangerous as it can obviously cause nose bleeding.
 * 6) Jeffy also likes feces, which is ''extremely gross! If Jeffy has feces on his diaper for too long, he could genuinely get a rash. Not to mention, he likes to spank his diaper for no reason like it's another one of his quirks that is rather weird in hindsight.
 * 7) He wears a diaper like it's another funny quirk of his, which is also very idiotic of him since Jeffy is too old to wear a diaper and considering that diapers are designed for babies.
 * 8) * Although he wears the diaper on the outside of his pants so it doesn't get dirty, so, why even put one on then if the pants are still gonna get dirty and can still give you a rash? And yes, this was still played for laughs.
 * 9) He cries (all the time) over stupid stuff and for no good reason.
 * 10) * For example: He cries over eating green beans served by Mario when they're supposed to be healthy & good for you since they don't contain bacteria. Apparently not to Jeffy that is.
 * 11) During 2016, he thought Mario and Rosalina were his actual parents, when in reality, Mario & Rosalina were not Jeffy's real parents and were just his guardians, though Mario & Rosalina are now Jeffy's parents since Mario adopted him.
 * 12) * Speaking of which, he is always making things worse for Mario intentionally most of the time and is still capable of being calamitous to him when Mario never wanted anything to do with him in the first place nor deserved to be treated obnoxiously by Jeffy.
 * 13) Jeffy has done lots of annoying and irredeemable acts, those including:
 * 14) * In Jeffy's Bath Time: He threw his clothes at Mario & Rosalina, ran around naked, and pissed on Mario.
 * 15) * In Locked Out: He locked Mario out of the house & he wasted his peas while Mario wasn't looking.
 * 16) * In Jeffy Loses His Teeth: He complained about only getting one dollar from the tooth fairy.
 * 17) * In Jeffy Get Potty Trained: He pooped in the sink & bathtub, and even urinated on Mario.
 * 18) * In Jeffy's Homework: He skulled Mario with his baseball bat.
 * 19) * In Jeffy Plays Baseball: He knocks Goodman with his baseball bat as well.
 * 20) * In Jeffy's Cellphone: He put the Flip Cellphone in his mouth and broke it impulsively.
 * 21) * In Jeffy's Bad Word: He used a homophobic slur A LOT because of hearing Mario. In addition, he also thinks Mario raped him when he only spanked Jeffy.
 * 22) * In Jeffy's Tantrum: He destroyed the TV and the couch. Not to mention, he tried to commit suicide which caused controversy.
 * 23) * In Jeffy's Sleepwalks: He destroyed the living room & kitchen in the apartment, while he was just sleepwalking.
 * 24) * In The Baby Project: He threw the baby off the balcony, threw it at the truck & threw the toaster into the water to electrocute the baby, causing it to get fried. Though, to be fair, it was a baby doll, to begin with, and not a real one. But still, it still shows how stupidly lethal and dangerous he can be.
 * 25) * In Jeffy's Pokémon Card: He destroyed Bowser Jr's Pokémon card.
 * 26) * In Jeffy's Imaginary Friend: He threw his "Imaginary Friend" onto his chair.
 * 27) * In Turkey Tyranny: He threw things around the dining room on the day of Thanksgiving.
 * 28) * In President Jeffy: He decides to ban and destroy all schools and green beans farms, all for no good reason.
 * 29) * In Hurricane Jeffy: He threw lots of furniture and objects around the house.
 * 30) * In Jeffy Gets Hypnotized: He threw the TV in the lake for absolutely no reason.
 * 31) * In Jeffy Goes Bowling: He broke Rosalina's arm with a hammer.
 * 32) * In Mr. Goodman's Revenge: He makes holes in the wall with his hammer.
 * 33) * In Jeffy's WiFi Problem: He broke a bunch of dishes mindlessly and drops some vases on the floor.
 * 34) * In Jeffy's Big Mess: He burnt Mario's hat.
 * 35) * In Jeffy the Sheep: He nearly gets his dad arrested, all because he wouldn't get him a PS5.
 * 36) * In Jeffy Learns Manners: He throws his dinner at Moe-Bot's face.
 * 37) He infamously spoiled a number of kids because of his salty behavior and due to the fact that his popularity is mostly filled with younger kids as there are reports that kids are misbehaving because they saw Jeffy doing it.
 * 38) * He also almost made a kid attempt suicide all because he did it in one video..
 * 39) When he resulted in Flanderization to his already obnoxiously stupid persona, Jeffy got more seemingly idiotic & imbecilic as time passes on (in spite of how self-aware & competent he can be) and has become more of a cash cow for SML now.
 * 40) * Speaking of which, Jeffy is also too selfish and obnoxiously provocative for his own good.
 * 41) He was responsible for Logan's bastardizing in quality by writing when he was overtaking the spotlight over other characters (like Mario himself) and demonization because of his adult-related jokes.
 * 42) *In fact, Logan has rehashed Junior videos, but with Jeffy in them, possibly for just pleasing his fanbase.
 * 43) He is always destroying stuff irresponsibly and for absolutely no good reason.
 * 44) During 2016-18, he would often repeat the same lines and jokes over and over again such as "Why?", "I don't even know", "Why would you do that?", "I didn't have to!" and "I didn't like that!".
 * 45) With that said, most of his recurring jokes aren't all that funny and rather cringeworthy; some of them include crapping his pants, spanking his diaper, and him saying "uh uh!".
 * 46) Anytime Jeffy does anything bad, he gets away with it, and never learns his lesson. The irresponsible Rosalina in fact encourages him on this as a sign of bad parenting compared to Mario trying to be a better parent with reasonably disciplining him.
 * 47) He has shown to be unable to accept criticism, as whenever someone calls him a bad boy, he'll start crying, wailing, and banging his head onto something.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He's a surprisingly good artist. He painted the Mona Lisa on an egg.
 * 2) He would occasionally get punished for his actions.
 * 3) Despite some flaws, Lance does a decent job voicing him.
 * 4) Although still a bad character by all things considered, he is sometimes a likable character:
 * 5) * He was likable in some SML movies like "Jeffy's Birthday Surprise", "The Candy Salesmen!" and "Jeffy Plays Minecraft" for example and was featured in good SML Movies/Shorts.
 * 6) * He is also more tolerable in some of the newer episodes as he doesn't repeat the same jokes and lines over and over again like he did in 2016-18 and can be aware of how asinine he is.
 * 7) * He has his funny moments, by meme or not.
 * 8) * He made a tribute to Precious in the end of the video and paid his respects to her/him in Precious Biggest Fan
 * 9) * He can be reasonable out of his sheer idiocy like bullying bullies (e.g Bully Bill), which shows some strength out of his cringe-worthy, unfunny, dull appearance.
 * 10) ** In "Jeffy's Bike", Jeffy gives a homeless man his bike out of sympathy, which is very nice of him.
 * 11) ** He is surprisingly good at bowling with a blindfold on as shown in "Jeffy Goes Bowling".
 * 12) ** He is surprisingly very strong as he is able to beat up Bully Bill; he is also strong while he is an infant, as seen in "Baby Jeffy".
 * 13) * He has some good quotes sometimes, such as "Christmas? It's March, bitch!" in Jeffy's Tantrum or "When something goes bad, there's always a good." in Jeffy and Junior's Big Heist.
 * 14) * Even though he is stupid, his stupidity can sometimes lead to victory, for example, in "The Baby Project", he stupidly tortured a baby girl for the project, after the baby got completely killed and its ashes got taken to school, Jackie Chu gave Jeffy and Junior an A+ for killing the baby because the baby was a girl, that is because all the babies were girls, and Jackie Chu wants the baby girls killed.
 * 15) ** This is likely an Asian stereotype joke, as the Chinese usually kill all baby girls and keep baby boys to keep people from reproducing, thus preventing overpopulation.
 * 16) * After Logan moved to SuperBowserLogan due to SuperLuigiLogan getting demonetized, Jeffy isn't swearing frequently like he used to before because Logan tried to make SuperBowserLogan 'family-friendly'.
 * 17) In 2021, you could notice that there are not many Jeffy videos releasing a lot, which shows that Jeffy is not becoming very overused nowadays, which could improve SML a bit.

Reception
Even though Jeffy is a heavily hated character, he has a huge fanbase. However, it should be noted that the fanbase is mostly filled with little kids, young teens and people who are new to watching SML, leading to cult mentality and ultimately creating a white-knight fandom. This might also be the reason why Logan kept overusing Jeffy, simply to pander to his fanbase.
