Did Turbo Fast Really give the fans shipping/queer bait?
So hear me out I love turbo fast since I was young and yeah it has its funny moments but why do Skidmark and Turbo sometimes have their moments where it feels like queer bait for the fans watching the show?
Exhibit A-this scene from âBee Storyâ
This was the episode where White Shadows comfort item Mr.BuzzBee goes missing this escalates to Shadow actually showing stress.
Later in that same episode when Skidmark and Turbo are trying to find Mr.BuzzBee in lost and found they end up finding a REAL flying insect that looks like a bee in the lost and found bin. So we later see that both of them have trapped the creature in a drinking glass. (As shown above âŹď¸ before they high fived each other.) which we see both of them soon about to high âfiveâ each other (since they donât have hands only Skidmark does but they use their eyestalks instead). Which as seen by the photo above Skidmark kinda looks heâs rubbing his head against Turbo which it looks like heâs laughing.
Exhibit B-The whole F*cking episode of Ready, Set, Glow
This episode was where Skidmark being the conspiracy theorist he is, tries to undercover one of his idiotic conspiracy theories that the glowworms were probably aliens âI thinkâ with the help from Turbo in an awesome zip line race. This was also where we got the best dirty minded lines ever in the shows history. âI have other plans for his butt.â-Skidmark
âI donât wanna know what that means.â-Turbo
But the dirty minded bit wasnât important what is important isâŚ
Whoever gave us viewers this scene thank you and two âthe looks are so obviousâ. (This isnât the only âwe are secretly going out as âfriendsâ episode featuring these two)
OH WAIT I GOT MORE PROOF IN THIS EPISODE!!
Breaking news thereâs another dirty minded line in the same freaking episode
âmy favorite part was when I was riding on you.â-Skidmark
Which if your a dirty minded freak would say âOH SKIDMARK AND TURBO DEFINITELY HAD S*X!!!â which yes Iâve have to agree on. But the actual context was that Skidmarks favorite thing from the âgoing out as friendsâ adventure was when he was riding on turbos shell. Which is freaking adorable.
And later in the same conversation they both say thisâŚ
Which if youâre me theyâre hiding a secret that theyâre âgoing out as friendsâ when clearly Turbo is dating his quirky, overly caffeinated best friend who secretly gets annoyed at Turbo
when he just wants to left alone to work. Like me âI really wanna say eww people but I hide that fact to the publicâ
Exhibit C-What the heck is going on here?!
âChet gets Burnedâ was quite an interesting episode to say the least. It was Burns birthday which clearly Chet forgot, Blah blah blah Burn goes out with Skidmark instead (who at the time never dated anyone which made Skidmark feel awkward), yap yap yap which then makes Chet feel sad so he pretends to date a another girl to make Burn jealous or something uhh whatever, yap yap yap yappity yap yap, Chetâs new date is named Girlfriend McHottie Pants (dumbest name choice ever but funny)
So later in the same episode when Turbo âdisguised as Girlfriend McHottie Pantsâ picks up Skidmark from the Ferris wheel we get this famous scene
Skidmark straight up flirting with a male character âby the way who is cross dressing.â Now I got 2 main questions I want answers toâŚ
Question 1- Skidmark is aware this is Turbo but then so casually flirts on him saying âWell aright then Turbo Mchotte Pantsâ? Question 2-Where the f*ck did Skidmark get such rizz like damn heâs smooth? exhibit C supporting details- Skidmark is a freak
We have seen Skidmark flirt so casually with his Turbos older brother Chet as seen in the season 3 episode âBelle of the Gumballâ
Where Skid says he liked the way Chetâs shell did this âspiralâ. While using his eyestalks to check it out.
Skidmark also played naughty off of Chet as seen in the season 3 episode âThe Dry Spellâ
In which Skidmark and I quote âwhipped Chetâs big olâ ass with a towel with a perverted smile on his face.â Like what was Skidmark thinking before he did such an act? I believe he was thinking âOh thereâs a butt I could wack today I sure hope Chet wonât mind.â
In conclusion Skidmark youâre kinda freaky but thatâs cool.
Exhibit D- Another whole f*cking episode called âDonât Feed the Trollâ
Oh yeah another âwe are secretly going out as âfriendsâ episodeâ of Turbo Fast. This episode is about Turbo being targeted by an internet troll. Which âSkidmark being Skidmark againâ thinks this guy on the internet is a troll đ§ (the mythical creature). So in a âSkidmark and Turbo totally not dating adventure.â They try to change the internets trolls ways I think (I donât remember this episode that well). Please help me.
Most of the episode is literally just turbo and Skidmark having some beef with each other
If you consider the conversation they had about turbo wanting to find a way to the trolls heart. (Skidmark wasnât having any of turboâs sh*ty yapping).
Exhibit E- another totally going as friends moment but itâs short and not for the whole freaking episode.
Gills from season one is one of those unique holiday specials that isnât a Halloween or Christmas episode but rather a Fourth of July special which is something kids shows donât do often. As this special has a twistâŚ
Skidmark being Skidmark again decides that he cause an uproar because of a snail eating goldfish is in the pool. One. Why would he do that?
Two. Thatâs just messed up.
Three.why he do that act? So later in the episode Skidmark teams up with Turbo and well letâs just say⌠itâs kinda similar to the Donât Feed the Troll âdateâ.
âPicture will be added in a following postâ sorry this post wonât even f*cking let me!?
Skidmark and Turbo canon relationship in the show-
Understanding their canon relationship in the Turbo Fast is self explanatory if you gazed at the previous photos from this long ass post.
The Conclusion-
