'''This is Bob''' was/is a [[Copypastas|copypasta]] that was spread around YouTube comments around 2010 and 2013. Originally spreading as a comment people would spam just for the fun of it, This is Bob was widely considered annoying by the YouTube community.

The copypasta would thistle out over 2011-2012 but would later see a return in popularity in 2013, this time used to protest the integration of Google+ into YouTube. Google's response to this mass protesting was sadly not to backtrack and remove Google+ from YouTube, but to instead improve their ASCII art detection algorithms. | '''This is Bob''' was/is a [[Copypastas|copypasta]] that was spread around YouTube comments around 2010 and 2013.
