Its so interesting that people don't even know that there is a whole other side of this arg on seperate channels and like they are missing like 2/3s of the complete story
to be fair its more like 1 third as really you just miss what the "muses" are and thus mother and the fate of some minor characters like sonk the blue rat who was the more expirment viktom wailing that "oh god im still alive".
43:35 "Sometimes we can just make things undercomplicated, just once!" This is absolutely something MatPat would never say. I'm calling it: he's officially been fully replaced by his Alternate, MandelaPandela.
I’ve watched Alex Bale’s videos for years, it’s so cool to finally see him gain such traction and the attention he really deserves! If you want more of his weird creepy creations, I recommend watching his series Pizza Time Pizza. It’s not at all what you’d expect.
Just going through upvoting people talking about the “SpongeBob Theories” portion of this ARG because absolutely that needs to be part of this. Getting as much visibility here as possible
Hey Mat! I looked into that code about the host assimilated thing. The crypted version was: KRVW DVVLPLODWHG PRWKHU FRORQB HVWDEOLVKHG SUHSDULQJ WKH UHFRQQHFWLRQ. The decrypted version of the code is as follows: HOST ASSIMILATED MOTHER COLONY ESTABLISHED PREPARING THE RECONNECTION. I'm guessing 'Mother' is a AI computer based off stories I've read on sci-fi and stuff. My guess is that HMF is mutating these animals to 'feed' or to create and energy to power this so called Mother. Pretty sure Mother has something to do with the New World Order, that's pretty obvious. But hey, That's just a theory, a meat theory! Thanks for reading lmao 😅
Hey hey Matt---- Alex made the ARG and Cynical Critic was made just for the ARG. There is a few other channels in there contributing to the lore and in Alex's theories he adds in stuff for the ARG.
32:46 "See it at the bottom?" Holy cow, I don't know how MatPat saw those letters with the naked eye. That's some Thundercats "sight beyond sight" right there 👀
The muse ARG is one of the best ARGS I’ve seen that goes so deep you’ll feel like an actual conspiracy theorist by the end with a wall of red string Half a dozen channels, websites, login info, everything
When ever someone brings up stock photos, I think of the ones with the random girls bullying another girl who's wearing like 5 layers of shirts and then remember it was a whole photo session where they took turns being the bully and then they were all friends. Its the closest to a stock photo arg I've ever seen.
My favorite part of this is that, as someone who lives on a farm, these animals are not the ages they say they are. Ignore the strange shapes and forms, that 3 month pig would not look like that. It’s a photo of an older pig that’s been manipulated. It’s great.
@@johndoe24328 The backrooms is all about surrealism and mystery. It’s designed not to have a story whilst this arg is story-driven. Just an interesting contrast to add to your comment.
This comment doesn't have anything to do this Happy Meat Farms, but I need to say it since Mat mentioned it: MAT PLEASE DO NOT TAKE A SPONSORSHIP DEAL WITH BETTERHELP There's a lot of scumminess that comes with BH, a lot of which I experienced firsthand or at the very least second hand. The most important things to know are that their counselors are typically unvetted, underpaid, and overworked, and that their financial aid is an absolute joke. They charge you even for months where you aren't getting sessions, and they sell personal data, including sensitive information that is shared in session with your counselor. This last one actually used to be stated in their ToS, but was reworded and hidden when they were called out on it. All in all, they're a bad company, and there's a lot more I'm happy to share if you need to know. And if you want a professional word on it, Mickey Atkins did a video on it a few years ago that she was forced to take down due to a cease and desist from BH, but I'm sure she would love to share with you the absolute BS BetterHelp is guilty of. Anyone else who has dealt with BetterHelp, pleae share your experiences and bump this comment so Mat can see it!!
YES OMG. So many therapists have came out against BH, yet RU-vidrs still accept sponsorships from them. Therapy is not something to toy with, having a bad therapist can be traumatizing or deter people from seeking future support. Really hope that MatPat does his research with this one.
@@StarsStillHere it really is so traumatizing. we (hehe did system go brr) already had trauma from a previous bad therapist relationship that made us not want to seek other help, so starting bh was a huge step for us, and we were met with nothing but a transphobic counselor who told us he wouldn't work with us, a counselor who told us we were wasting our time and would eat during our sessions, and then months of no sessions that we still had to pay for, which was over 300 a month even with financial aid. it was an awful experience and we were ready to just give up on therapy again, but thankfully we've found other, much better and much cheaper resources that have helped us so much more than bh ever did. if anything, bh only increased our stress and anxiety and made things worse!
@@theoddgoats9660 I'm so sorry y'all had to experience that. And im so glad you found another therapist who could help you heal! Hopefully the GT business side knows better than to jump into this just because some other RU-vidrs have taken sponsorships from BH. I wish y'all the best ☺️💕
53:18 I can assure you this is more common than you may think. When I had an stay at the Grippy Sock Hotel there was another patient that “blogged” 1-2 times a day. Incredibly interesting thing to witness.
I'm pretty sure MatPat is a Poppy stan. She also has a song called Meat so it was a fitting mention! My initial thought was that same as Matpat that HR stood for something else but I think its the fact that humans are the literal resources and it did say Human Resources Department on the webpage.
i legitimately started cheering when i saw the title. i love this arg so much, please do a theory on this and watch alex bales spongebob theories! and sonc the blue rat. and the cynical critic. i swear theyre all related-
So does this mean Mat will react to Alex Bale’s SpongeBob theories? Cause I get the feeling he’ll love it because of its connections and for the theories themselves
Yeah, the theories are almost as interesting as the ARG lore. And I love the way he includes the live action scenes in the theory videos and all the unexpected twists in the story
Please please PLEASE do a theory on this? Pretty please?? This one haunted me so much more than any other arg and I have no idea why, but I’d love to see your take on what it means!
This is SCP Foundation-type horror. We have insane body horror, and then we have people like Dr. King, Dr. Bright, and most of the people testing SCP-914.
@@nathanmiller9381 Oh You Don't Know Who Alex Bale Is He's The Creator Of The Happy Meat Farm Lore He's Channel Is Mainly On Spongebob Theory's But At Same Time He Puts Lore On His Videos Via Side Stories I Recommend You Checking It Out It's Interesting
There is many other RU-vid channels in this ARG a lot of them produce pardodies of RU-vid Genres. The creator’s main channel has a Spongbob theory series with ARG sections that are highly important to this Arg.
that stock footage one where matpat called out the girl who was cringing, I'd be curious to see if that was actually original to that stock footage reel or if it was a deepfake that he didn't notice
Matt losing his sanity over the date is somehow ridiculously relatable to me 🤣 Years just start merging into one heap of year goo once you become 30 😂😂😂😂
the scary mouth on the cow in the thumbnail isn’t on the cows mouth, you can see the cows mouth above the spooky mouth, it’s bothering me, i will never recover from this
FINALLY MATPAT IS AWARE OF ALEX BALE’S ARG!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE REACT TO THE WHOLE SERIES WITH ALL THE SPONGEBOB THEORIES AND EVERYTHING AND THEN MAKE A FILM THEORY ABOUT IT
The whole conversation between Ash and Mat around "It's 2022, right" just reminds me of the "Now" conversation in Spaceballs when they are viewing the instant video cassettes. xD Maybe HR IS Human Resource. As in...a resource of human meat. >83
Was hoping he would get into this, its so big, spanning many different channels, it's great Hope he goes to the happy meat farms subreddit as they this video, now hopefully he can catch up with the rest of everyone that is deep in the ARG with the help of the subreddits
Matt: this is why you don't sell your body to science! Matt 10 seconds later: 20$ and hour? Sign me up! But then again he did get paid 80$ each brain scan sooo-
Anyone watching these videos WITHOUT the music is commiting crimes against good taste!!! The music it's SO GOOD you really need to hear it and love it, like the rest of us do already!!!
It's super cool that you're covering this MatPat! However, there's much more to this than this channel!! I definitely recommend you look into the rest of the story!
so glad to see you cover this, if you havent already seen this in the other comments this is not the best entry to the arg, best place to start would be Alex Bale's "Spongebob Theory" videos. The creators link on the website brings you to one of them.
I've been waiting for Alex Bale to get some sort of theory or just general traction. I've been watching his content since Promos, and to see Matpat reacting to the same ARG that I have been obsessing over since it started over a year ago is really cool.
I gotta say though if your really getting into this arg your gonna have to look into way more channels and websites other than happy meat farms but I’ll let you explore the arg it’s by far the most complex ones I’ve seen in years
Omg I legit screamed when I saw this video was made, I’ve been waiting for SO long for him to cover this! I can’t believe I didn’t see it yesterday! 🤯🤩😮
This arg is completely new to me. But my instincts are telling me that the humane solution to the meat industry is HUMAN meat. I also think HR does stand for human resources - the resource being human meat edit: I just noticed on the employee website it says "Human Resources Department", not just "HR Department"
Not sure if the "partner" is an alien or an entity of some kind. But the founder definitely made some kind of deal with it (i say definitely but im just guessing what makes sense to me lol)
53:14 "I was just sitting on a couch, there's no camera here, there's no you, and it was just me in a room talking to myself, solving these mysteries on my own" You just described Disco Elysium (an excellent game I'd love to see you play - it's a pretty interesting simulation of the human mind -, but which would be unfortunately too long a playthrough for the channel).
I adore the format of these videos, i came upon them accidentally the week video 3 came out. how its horror, but has comedy, how the subjects match in with the beat. its awesome
HMF is a fantastic ARG. I started watching Alex during Pizza Time Pizza, which was another ARG on a much smaller scale. Also, for those who want to get into this ARG, make sure to check out the cynical critic too. that channel is also connected to the ARG's Muse story. (Also sonc the blue rat, which is connected to the cynical critic)
Decided to watch this again and look into it more when I found that the RU-vid channel "this place is not happy" had a new upload 2 weeks ago about their IT department. Definitely got some new information in that upload.
43:30 HE SAID THE THING THAT I'VE BE STRUGGLING TO GET EVERYONE TO UNDERSTAND!! **BANGS A GONG AND THROW CONFETTI** I just realized it's not much of a victory is this was a concept regurgitated by a neuro-science student.... **Bangs a smaller gong**
