VHS ALERT: BOATERS & ANGLERS 

Da wording on a dockside sign dat warns aquatic sportsmen about of a serious bacterial infection of fish caused by throwing videocassettes into the water.

I always find da "VHS ALERT: BOATERS & ANGLERS" signs puzzling, since conceivably most folks who would be venturing out on a lake or river would not even have televisions or VCRs with them, and so there should be little problem of folks tossing their broken/unwanted tapes overboard while they were cruising around in their skiffs and yachts.

Prank VHS and DVD openings 

Also called "Vyond Prank videos", it's a very controversial type of video in which a person uploads a video (in most locations involve around prank openings with the usage of film/show's cover as a thumbnail). However, it misleads a title and instead shows a edited clip of a clip from another copyrighted franchise, or a repeat of another user's video, and the description only shows saying that viewers have been trolled by this.

This controversial trend have been circulating around YouTube between early-mid 2015, and are still occasionally being uploaded to this very day.

Fake VHS Openings

A particular type of videos that show intros for VHS tapes that don't exist. While some of them are decently made, a majority of videos are recorded with an external-device (a camcorder or an iPhone), which is of insanely poor quality.

"I have ever seen some fake VHS openings about my favorite cartoon Thomas and Friends." - Some VHS fan

straight to vhs 

When something is really bad, trashy, poor quality, etc. Based on old movies with bad production quality like the old power rangers movie's that never went to theaters, but went straight to vhs.

Man, that food was so bad, it should go straight to vhs.
