Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Which one's which? Doesn't really matter.

Barats and Bereta are an Internet comedy duo who write, act, and post skits on their Youtube channel as well as their own Homepage. Some of their older, better known works are Mother's Day, Auto Insurance, Flag Makeover, Douche Off, Mantage and Jesus Pwned U. There are also some short series, such as Ad Guys.

They are probably known most for their usage of What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome? and Narm Charm as vehicles for their work.


Barats and Bereta provides examples of the following tropes:

"...fuck the Yankees."

  • Heterosexual Life Partners: Luke Barats and Joe Bereta should be the Web Original posterboys for this trope. Their characters are often examples of this as well.
  • Hilarious Outtakes: There's one at the end of "Rulebreakers" where Barats tries to continue being electrocuted but ends up breaking down laughing from the sheer silliness of his acting.
  • Jerkass: Mr. Wentworth. (And maybe Jesus, but he's more like Crazy Awesome.)
    • Also, Luke and Joe from Douche Off compete to see who is the bigger one of this trope. It is as epic as it sounds.
  • Large Ham: Both Luke and Joe try to out-ham each other in almost every video. Special mention goes to "Ad Guys" and "Cubicle Wars" for making a plot out of the one-upping antics.
  • Mood Whiplash: When one of the kids gets a seizure in "Yes Kidz Kan".

No. Leave him. He is not a Kid Kadet.

  • Precision F-Strike: In "Mousemate" and "Ad Guys".
  • Rapid-Fire Comedy: Be careful or you'll miss something good.
  • Rated "M" for Manly: The Mantage, obviously.
  • Sitcom Arch Nemesis: Milkman and Mailman.
  • Take That: In "2012", the time traveling pair accidentally destroy the only copy of Indiana Jones 4, which is one in a chain of events that prevents the apocalypse.
    • "F U!" is a video composed of three people flipping off annoying people in the most amazingly over-the-top fashions possible. The first person lets his dog shit in a guy's yard right next to his paper, the second person, a girl, blows a kiss to someone's boyfriend while the girlfriend is walking right next to him, and the third guy drank all his roommate's beers. It must be seen to be truly appreciated.
    • "Boston Jury Duty" is one big Take That at the New York Yankees. It's a slow burn, but the pay off is so worth it.
  • What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?: Pretty much everything they do qualifies.
