Sound Clip

The sound clip  is a sound bite, often ripped directly from an .mp3 or YouTube video that is used in the process of editing. These words/sound-effects are often explicit, adding to their entertainment value. The very first YouTube user to make a SpongeBob edit was Klusignolo. He would use primarily sound clips from Tenacious D songs. He figured it would be funnier than just dubbing over curse words that he said himself. Some of the first sound-clips that he used the most prevalently are still being used to this very day. The vast majority of Klusignolo's sounds were ripped from Tenacious D's &quot;Inward Singing&quot;, as it contains a slew of cursing with no music in the background. &quot;Inward Singing&quot; contains fan favorite sound clips including &quot;fuck you&quot; and &quot;piece of shit.&quot;

Though at first sound clips consisted of roughly the 20-30 swears that Klusignolo would use, other YouTube users decided to start editing, and the stockpiles grew, some to the point of collections reaching the upper thousands.
