* ADateWithRosiePalms: "Alone In The Universe."

She even says, in an introduction to one of her videos, that she's [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling not quite sure what happened in the gene pool for them to be related]]. She loves him all the same.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed:
** Most of the WTF Collective members are based on famous rappers, at least in their voices and delivery. For instance, MC Fatigue is Sean Paul and MC Final Verse is 50 Cent.
** Also "Pop Song" has some the typical BoyBand stereotypes, such as the good looking lead singer, and the effeminate one that is probably gay.
** MC Vagina references [[GeorgeClooney Jeff Clooney]], [[SouljaBoy Boy Soldier]], [[BradPitt Brad Pitts]], and Puff Daddy. He likes to go to famous people parties with them.

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: MC Knows Too Many Facts About Bees ends his verse with "Just 'cause I know a lot about bees doesn't mean that I'm gay." As it turns out, [[spoiler:he's also MC In the Closet Homosexual.]]
* TalkingToHimself: Every member of the WTF Collective is played by Jon.

* ThreeMinutesOfWrithing: The video for "Pop Song".
* TropeName: "Everyday Normal Guy," "Pop Song," "Radio-Friendly Song."
* Website/YouTube: How he became famous. The reason he routinely sells out comedy clubs, even thousands of miles away from his hometown, on weeknights.

I TAKE CARE OF MY CHILDREN!
* ADateWithRosiePalms: "Alone In The Universe."
* DeadpanSnarker: During the breaks between songs in his live performances, and his non-musical Website/YouTube sketches. But even some of his songs are bitingly sarcastic and incredibly cynical (see "Pop Song" and "Radio-Friendly Song").
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler: Chorus Guy in WTF Collective 2]]
* DudeNotFunny: An "in-universe"- example He [[LampshadeHanging calls himself out in the lyrics]] to the final chapter of the "Show Me Your Genitals" trilogy, "I Kill People," after making an Anne Frank joke. Also used by [[TooSoon MC Inappropriate Rhymes in WTF Collective 2]] and {{Lampshaded}} again by [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin MC Extremely]] [[MoralGuardians Politically Correct]]
* DudeNotIronic: ''WTF Collective'' features MC Doesn't Know What Irony Is. In either context we hear him use the word, it's not clear exactly what he thinks it means -- the point is, he doesn't get it.
* DullSurprise: MC Vagina.
* EruditeStoner: "We don't have racism in Canada. We have... weed."
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The rapper names in his WTF Collective videos.
* ExplainExplainOhCrap: Courtesy of [[MeaningfulName MC Uses Time Machines Irresponsibly]]:
-->''Then I traveled in time to the night I was conceived\\
I met up with my parents and we hung out all night\\
[[TemporalParadox Come to think of it, they didn't have any alone time...]] [[PuffOfLogic NOOO]]--''
* GratuitousFrench: At the end of Very Super Famous we hear "For all you French ladies out there: Le feu sur le cheval était brisé" (Meaning: The fire on the horse was broken).
* LampshadeHanging: The final chapter of the "Everyday Normal Guy" trilogy, "Everyday Normal Crew."
-->''We just a regular, everyday, normal crew\\
The joke's gettin' old, I fuckin' agree with you\\
I'm just repeatin' the same shit from Normal Guy 1 & 2\\
What a twist, in this one I'm rappin' about my friends too\\
I think this cow's been milked dry...'''[[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch muthafucka]]''' ''
* HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday: MC Vagina, especially in these lines from "I Kill People"
-->''So if you'll come at me I'll trip you then [[FreudianSlip I'll suck your nuts]]\\
I-i mean I'll punch your nuts\\
Sucking them would be gay and [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial I'm totally not gay]]\\
I'm all about V-A-G-I-N-A.
* HypocriticalHumor: MC Extremely Politically Correct in "WTF Collective 2" references "Michael Jackson Is Dead".
-->''[Lajoie's lyrics] are offensive, insensitive, and in very bad taste\\
Like that guy who wrote that song when Michael Jackson passed away''
* IAmTheBand: His "WTF Collective"s and "Pop Song" parody this.
* LyricalDissonance: ''All'' of his songs.
* {{Metaphorgotten}}: MC Vagina is proficient in this:
** "My love is like lightning. It gives girls orgasms. My dick is like an airplane. It gives girls orgasms.
** "Yeah, the Eiffel Tower is a lot like my dick, it's big and it stings when soap gets inside the tip."
** "Fame is like a tree. It helps you get pussy."
* MindScrew: Visit his website. [[http://www.jonlajoie.com/ We DARE You]]. And in his commercial for hands.
* OvershadowedByAwesome: His sister, Jessica Lajoie. Sure, she's good-looking, has a good voice, but... yeah. She even says, in an introduction to one of her videos, that she's [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling not quite sure what happened in the gene pool for them to be related]]. She loves him all the same.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed:
** Most of the WTF Collective members are based on famous rappers, at least in their voices and delivery. For instance, MC Fatigue is Sean Paul and MC Final Verse is 50 Cent.
** Also "Pop Song" has some the typical BoyBand stereotypes, such as the good looking lead singer, and the effeminate one that is probably gay.
** MC Vagina references [[GeorgeClooney Jeff Clooney]], [[SouljaBoy Boy Soldier]], [[BradPitt Brad Pitts]], and Puff Daddy. He likes to go to famous people parties with them.
* PermaStubble: He's only rarely clean-shaven.
* PrecisionFStrike: {{Inverted}} in the "Pointless Profanity" video. [[GoshDarnItToHeck OH SNAPPING TURTLE!]]
* ProtestSong:
** Surprisingly played straight in "Song for the Students," a song in support of the 2012 Quebec student protests.
** Also, arguably "Osama Is Dead."
* RedHerring: Before WTF Collective 3 was released, [[spoiler:MC Vagina appearing to sing the chorus at the end of WTF 2]]
* RefugeInAudacity: Cranked UpToEleven
* RunningGag: "You want some of this, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch Bitch]]?"
* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: "I Kill People":
-->''Guns don't kill people\\
(Uh uh)\\
''I'' kill people\\
[[DramaticGunCock (Chik chik)]]\\
With guns\\
(Pow)''
* SelfDeprecation: The foundation of his humor, along with BlackComedy. The best example is "Too Fast."
* SophisticatedAsHell: In "Fuck Everything":
-->''And fuck birth entering the world of space and time is a bitch\\
Searching for purpose in the random universe sucks dick!\\
Is it deterministic or am I free to choose my way?\\
[[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Did I choose to not give a fuck about ice cube trays?]]''
* {{Stripperific}}: The girls in the video for "Pop Song".
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: MC Knows Too Many Facts About Bees ends his verse with "Just 'cause I know a lot about bees doesn't mean that I'm gay." As it turns out, [[spoiler:he's also MC In the Closet Homosexual.]]
* TalkingToHimself: Every member of the WTF Collective is played by Jon.
* ThreeChordsAndTheTruth: His songs that don't parody BoastfulRap pretty much always fit this style.
* ThreeMinutesOfWrithing: The video for "Pop Song".
* TropeName: "Everyday Normal Guy," "Pop Song," "Radio-Friendly Song."
* Website/YouTube: How he became famous. The reason he routinely sells out comedy clubs, even thousands of miles away from his hometown, on weeknights.
* WHAMLine: [[spoiler: "You can't spell chorus without... Vagina."]]
* WhoWantsToLiveForever: [[spoiler:After Chorus Guy shoots himself, he comes back as a zombie:]]
-->''This must be a bad dream\\
Why am I still singing?\\
I motherfucking killed myself...''
* AWildRapperAppears: Parodied in "Pop Song":
-->''And now the token rap verse that doesn't make any sense\\
But helps me get a small percentage of the urban music market''
* WordSaladLyrics: MC Confusing's entire schtick
-->"And I play air guitar with the tuba toothpaste, and I say, karate pencil case, and put it on tape."
