The Muffin That Saved My Life 

The muffin who is suicidal saved your life , the irony is strong with this one.

"He was 8. He had all the power." My favorite quote by far (7:56 for anyone wondering)

I'm surprised that the Mom agreed for letting her 7 to 8 year old to say proudly "Why won't you let me die!"

Thanks for having me! So cool to see all the iterations and people involved. Love ya dude

Imagine calling someone’s mum to ask her to record her child saying suicidal things

This child had probably the most adorable voice I’ve ever heard in my life

Hey man, I really enjoyed talking with you! It was really interesting to recap the story of Mr. Muffin, great video!

So Mr. Muffin basically got created with: 2:13 _Catbug's Original Voice Actor_ _Tom's Dark Suicidal Thoughts_ _and A Small Berry Muffin on His Dinner Table_

Directile dysfunction wow

IT HAS BEEN AN HONOUR (an honor, but british) to be involved in the story of Mr. Muffin. Although I have to say, he was a diva in the studio and couldn't stop reminding me that he was the #1 most famous muffin, even more famous than muffin men (who are not muffins, but servants to their muffins). Thanks for the virtual hang, I'm calling Kehinde Wiley right now to commission some platinum muffin art 🙏 🎨

Tom said he had a god-son, therefore Thomas "TomSka" Ridgewell is, techinically: The Godfather

This was really interesting, and cool to see the new custom animation for the old scrapped muffin song demos. Is it bad I started laughing when I realized that was like the end of Act 2 of every Behind the Music? “Behind the Muffin.” Anyway jokes aside, this was an interesting look at the muffin phenomenon and I enjoyed playing a small role and hearing the thoughts of everyone involved

"The Muffin Man doesn't count. He's not a muffin, he's a man." sldkjfslkdf why did I find this so funny hahah

If he ever stops doing videos, i gonna be sad. He is one of the best content creators we have in the entire internet

I feel so daft for thinking at the time "wow, Tom's catbug impression is dead on".

I clicked "like" right after "Directile dysfunction". Haaaa, comedy

Tom: I need a voice actor for this muffin Frederator: Why not use Catbug?

Also can we appreciate how he reached out to the tik tok girl who was totally harassed for being “cringe”? She did not deserve all that hate I’m glad he’s supporting her

The muffin that wanted to die, did die, metaphorically, and yet saved many others.

Asdf movie universe be like: A suicidal muffin A guy breaking his face on the ground A skateboarding cow (real man) A pie flavored pie A guy who likes trains A guy who’s gay and tells his person who he’s dating they are gay A taco who wants money A turtle that’s also a mine A STEGOSAURUS who loves killing people And the creator, who watches his chaos. There’s the chaotic universe!

ah yes, _telling an eight year old to say "I wanna die!" is the pinnacle of humor_

Brain-dead waffle replaces suicidal muffin, then guilty marshmallow replaces brain-dead waffle. What a story

I love how you can tell when Tom is joking, and when he’s being serious just from his voice

Me: wow, I wonder why ASDF movie is so relatable Tom: it’s fulled by depression and suicidal ideation Me: that makes sense-

Usually you’re supposed to help the suicidal muffin that want’s to die, I guess this is a case of the ol’ switcheroo

“It needs to be a bop, it needs to slap” Sir I play the muffin song DAILY. Thank you for the gem 💎

This kid Sam is 8 and has more charisma than most youtubers

This man made an 8 year old yell about committing suicide to cope with depression. This is the 21st century, people.

I remember when asdf movies took a sharp dark turn and tried to find a platform to genuinly wish you the best because I could pick up on those vibes and felt really worried for you. I'm so glad you stuck around.

23:00 "It was done, and I guess I felt at peace, and then tik-tok happened" -Tom 2020

The last asdfmovie skit should be the muffin finally getting eaten.

Its not a more famous muffin but another famous muffin is: Someone baked a hamster in to my muffin

I love the muffin, he gave my bad thoughts a silly voice I could ridicule instead of taking them seriously ;) thank you

"Let's get the fun one out the way." Proceeds to talk about being diagnosed with Depression+

still cant believe the man is rockin one of my shirt designs in this vid THANK U STAY THICC THOM

Sam Lavagnino both looks and sounds like a Pixar character.

Bro, never thought I would be watching a documentary on a suicidal muffin. But a lovable suicidal muffin none the less.

5:50 probably the best sentence I’ve ever heard

I didn't know this muffin was voice acted by a child. What a fool I was...

This was such a wonderful story! Thanks for sitting down and making this whole video.

man, it's great to see how big asdfmovie suddenly got again. i remember when muffin time came out and i never expected it to return in 2018 and later but here we are

Maybe he doesn't wanna die anymore knowing what he's done.

"I'm just excited you want to do something creative with my thingy" -Tomska, 2020

The bridge of the muffin song I changed the first line to "As I reach the end of the line" So lyrics will be: "As I reach the end of the line, I cant afford to say goodbye, You and I are bound together, Especially since cartoons live forever" I cry ;w;

Name a more popular muffin? Me talking to myself, the muffin man. Tom: the muffin man doesn’t count he is a man Me: ..... staring at phone ... can you hear me Tom?

Tomska: * makes a suicidal song * Tiktok: so anyways I started making memes

So I emailed and asked: "Hey! Can I have an 8 year old come to your studio and scream about wanting to die?" Imagine getting THAT email...

It gets me that Sam's mom went along with the suicidal muffin thing

Those 4 muffin song variations literally fit together and sound pretty awesome actually 🤣

The title is wow but he saved many I’m sure

In my personal opinion, the 2018 muffin song is the magnum opus of all of the Tomska songs. It just sounds so good, its one of those kinds of things that don't get old, even after hundreds of thousands of replays.

I hope Tom never stops doing youtube because of stats telling him he's not as popular as he was years back. We like your stuff, Tom, so as long as you enjoy doing this, please do. That's all that matters imo

ASDF movie has always been a show that I can truly see the creative process behind, and I respect that. Thanks Tom!

We still love you Tom, don't you ever forget that.

Tom: I wouldn’t put somebody on blast like that. Tom’s godson: *a single year rolls down his cheek

"I'm excited that you want to do something with my thingie." That's what she said.

He is the most underrated and under appreciated comedy creator of RU-vid...❤️ You Tom...

RU-vid's getting waay to comfortable with these double unskippable ads.

Tomska's videos make me smile everytime while i'm going through depression. I'm pretty sure that more people have it worse than me so let me tell you this. It will be alright. And I love you

THIS MAKES MUFFIN KID SO MUCH CUTER

"That's not one of the original recordings, I wouldn't put someone on blast like that." He said, while destroying his godson

dude i can not name a single other youtuber who puts tws in their videos. cheers mate.

Ignore this, thought the old version of the muffin song was good so i made a replay button for myself: 15:21

It's ironic, the muffin that wanted to die saved a life

I'm really not sad content's over, because Tom's humour is always with us I want to ask though tom, are you okay?

The skateboarding cow? *that’s foreshadowing*

I hope you know, I screamed at asdfmovie 7 when I heard Catbug.

I remember being at a really dark place in my life when this song came out. I wasn't part of the tik tok trend as I too am incredibly easily distracted. But honestly this song when it was on soundcloud, the only app that my parental block bricked phone had, made me smile. It was catchy and it had a message at the end I could really feel, although a lot different than Tom's perspective, the lyrics were really important to me. Thanks Tom for all the content, it's been a wild ride

Who's gonna watch a 30 min video instead of doing homework that was due 1 week ago? Me

I remember when the song 1st came out. Everyone was worried about you. We wanted to show our love and support. Happy that your doing better and going stronger than ever.

Don’t worry Tom, we’re all still here and we’re gonna stick around to see what you can create next ❤️❤️

Hello Thomas " Tomska " Ridgewell.

I had watched Tomska and DarkSquidge quite a lot over the years, so I knew what the bridge meant, and it always made me cry. I listened to the song so many times.

I would love to have seen an asdf movie that just fully loses its comedic edge half way through, the impact would be huge

Who knew the TomSka outro song from 2016-2017 was actually the unused Muffin Song (anyways please release the full versions of them they were bangers)

I’m eating a muffin while watching this so he might be happy now

Ironic the suicidal muffin saved Tom then Tom saved me

The muffin died for Tom’s sins...

When asdfmovie ends the muffin should finally be eaten

there are no accidents -master oogway

"Do something creative with my thingy" -TomSka 2020

I loved the Muffin so much, and it was nice being able to relate to a character in one's darker times. I'm better now and still comes back for it ever so often.

HOW MUCH WERE THOSE 10 SECOND CLIPS CAUSE HE PROBABLY HAD TO RELICENSE THOSE

I remember when "It's muffin time" came out. The content just resonated with me since I knew what happened through the many years I've been following you and the others. I felt sad knowing that the end was close, but also glad you could get this message out for people to get : the exhaustion, the disconnect, things rapidly changing around you... But when the song went viral on TikTok etc, I felt disgusted. People were turning this song into a funny meme song and turning it into cringe compilations, completely stripping it out of the message that it carried. I was angry. But look at that, with all the memes sparking out of nowhere, the interest suddenly came back and allowed you to expand, create and do even more than a random dude telling people about the real meaning and message behind the song would ever do. I've been a fool all along, and I'm glad to have been one. The internet is a wonderful place, and I'm very glad you're still around.

Not sure if any one will see this but neat little update, the muffin song I believe has gone platinum with over 130 million 'sales' (over 200 million streams). I just think that this is super neat and love seeing Tom grow such success since he has more then earned it through his over a decade of hard work.

tomska: you saved my life! muffin: yay so are you gonna eat me or not?

i love this man

It's so interesting that a lot of people who create humor for others are depressed, speaking about it openly, especially on this kind of platform raises a lot of awareness for mental illness aswell so thank you both for your great work and raising mental health awareness

My parents said that my suicidal ideation and depressed thoughts were just attention seeking and that messed me up really bad for like three years

From darkness there is light. From death, springs life. From a suicidal muffin is born a new reason to fight.

Nice to see someone actually explain their depressive issues -- in this case suicidal ideation. Most people just say "I was feeling abit down" which to me either feels disingenuous or like their just labeling listlessness as depression. I personally have SI, and the thing people rarely get is the difference between it and intent. But ya, my brain just hates existance, but I'm also too spiteful to let it win -- that's the way I can best explain it.

Tomska:*creates a sad video* Me: I like your shirt

I'm just happy you're ok Tom

The original Muffin Time with the guitar and synths are simply amazing, I hope that they get released in full someday

My son had just turned 1 when the muffin song came out. I was hooked (been a fan for years) so I was listening to it in the kitchen while making dinner. Suddenly, my wife says, "Turn around!" and my son is dancing and laughing in the dining room. He's bobbing up and down and having the time of his life! One of his first words was 'Muffin' and even now he still loves it. Kinda feel like a bad dad occasionally... but he has no idea and it's so cute :P

I have to wonder if Tom tried to get in touch with the “rubbery-faced boys” who made the much-memed “I baked you a pie” TikTok

Honestly, i think is pretty amazing how recognisable you are. Almost everyone i meet either knows you, or has seen your work. Youll never lose relevence my dude.

Tom is the only guy I know who makes a sleeveless hoodie look good.
