History StealthPun / WebOriginal

* {{WebVideo/RockedReviews}} calls {{Music/Metallica}}'s ''Load'' and ''[=ReLoad=]'' albums "two big loads," and accompanies this pun with [[ToiletHumour the sound of someone defecating]].

* A good one concerning Creator/RoosterTeeth is the company name itself and it involves a vulgar insult used in ''Machinima/RedVsBlue''. That insult? [[spoiler:"cockbite"]].

* During the ''Machinima/YogscastMinecraftSeries''' Tekkit playthrough (plus [=MoonQuest=]), LetsPlay/SimonLane, LetsPlay/LewisBrindley and LetsPlay/DuncanJones are the only members of Honeydew, Inc. Simon is the boss, so Lewis and Duncan [[spoiler:have to do what Simon Says.]]

* On a UsefulNotes/{{furry|Fandom}} {{Image Board|s}}, someone called for "RuleThirtyFour of [[WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH NIMH]]." One of the responses was a [[http://4chanarchive.org/images/48232393/1197572170797.jpg picture]] of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel-metal_hydride_battery batteries]].

* ''WebAnimation/FreedomToons'': Seamus seems to be referencing the 'Clown World' meme in "JBP, Trump's Wind Mill Cancer, Jussie Smollett", focused on various short skits depicting a Bizarro upside-down world where Jordan Peterson's refusal to use NewSpeak causes Trans people to literally stop existing, UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump develops cancer from exposure to constant media windmills, and Creator/JussieSmollett is vindicated as a saint.
* A recurring thread on Website/SomethingAwful is "[[RealityIsUnrealistic Real pictures that look like photoshops]]". And eventually, someone ''will'' post [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camerahouse.jpg this]]. [[spoiler:It's a photo shop.]]

* [[WebOriginal/OSTan Vista-tan]] has huge tracts of land.
** And we all know huge tracts of land are [[spoiler:vistas.]]
*** Plus, we all know Windows Vista was a huge [[spoiler:bust]].
** Similarly, a 2017 tumblr post took off about a {{Moe}} anthropromorphized Earth. [[ACupAngst She isn't flat]].
* ''WebAnimation/UnforgottenRealms'' has Professor Strap, who after a memory erasing spell goes by the name of "Jacques". [[spoiler: Jacques Strap]].
* ''WebVideo/DoctorHorriblesSingAlongBlog'': Moist went on a double date with Bait and Switch. He thought he was going to end up with Bait, but...
** Dr. Horrible is full of this: On his blog, the Doctor mentions transporting several gold bars from a safe. He lifts up a bag of brownish "cumin-smelling" liquid and says that the molecules shifted in the transportation [[spoiler: Bouillon/gold bullion]]
** Also, in the song "Neil's Turn" on the Commentary, Neil Patrick Harris is stuck alone and in the dark in the studio, and sings, "What's with all these weird cords?" [[spoiler: just as the music plays a bunch of "weird chords"]]

* ''WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall'''s Top 15 Worst Heroes Becoming Villains has Linkara pull out a mock-equation to determine the revealingness of {{Face Heel Turn}}ed heroines' outfits. The gist is that the amount of evil ([[FantasticMeasurementSystem measured in]] [[Franchise/StarWars MegaVaders]]) inside someone is directly proportional to their body temperature, and as such they must wear more revealing outfits to compensate. Or, in other words, [[EvilIsSexy the badder they get, the hotter they get]].

* On a UsefulNotes/{{furry|Fandom}} {{Image Board|s}}, someone called for "RuleThirtyFour of [[WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH NIMH]]." One of the responses was a [[http://4chanarchive.org/images/48232393/1197572170797.jpg picture]] of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel-metal_hydride_battery batteries]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSiVWkk5zaQ&feature=player_embedded This Youtube video]]. [[spoiler: A steam-powered turntable, playing the Sex Pistols. Steampunk.]]
* A Brazilian blog[=/=]Website/{{Tumblr}} has made a parody "[[http://microcontoscos.blogspot.com/2010/06/escalacao-das-selecoes-da-copa-2010.html Squads of]] UsefulNotes/TheWorldCup". The resulting HurricaneOfPuns sometimes needs context: the Netherlands include a Brazilian rapper famous for pro-cannabis songs, the smuggling-heavy Paraguay has "[[ShoddyKnockoffProduct Sorny, Mike, BleckBarry and Hi-Phone]]", and Denmark ends with WesternAnimation/ScoobyDoo (a Great Dane) and two candies sold at the chocolatier Kopenhagen.
* Music/BoBurnham, one of the few good musicians and songwriters out there, needs more love. Come on, folks, let's start referencing him. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-ap5Fp2T6c&feature=relmfu Here's some truly masterful Stealth Puns for ya!]]
* [[http://reyezuelowren.blogspot.com/2011/04/another-origin.html This blog post]] is written by an author who enjoys puns based on the origins of words. "None of the little particles in the universe had gotten the idea that one might turn yet." [[spoiler: "Universe" comes from Latin roots ''uni'' and ''vertere''--"one" and "turn".]]
* In one episode of ''Sassy Gay Friend'', the title character makes his entrance [[spoiler:out of a closet.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'''s fandom has a "[[Memes/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Ponies in Socks]]" meme, so someone was inspired to create [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/38699 this]]. [[spoiler:It's the Python programming language, using the SOCKS protocol.]]
* While many an image on this very wiki falls into this (see the section on VisualPun), the one in SpeedSex is the most blatant. [[spoiler:Who came before, the chicken or the egg?]]
* During the ''Machinima/YogscastMinecraftSeries''' Tekkit playthrough (plus [=MoonQuest=]), LetsPlay/SimonLane, LetsPlay/LewisBrindley and LetsPlay/DuncanJones are the only members of Honeydew, Inc. Simon is the boss, so Lewis and Duncan [[spoiler:have to do what Simon Says.]]

* Typical viewers of video game streams are affectionately known as stream monsters. Twitch.tv's most popular chat face is called "Kappa," [[spoiler:as in a [[{{Kappa}} literal stream monster]]]].
* ''Series/{{Noob}}'' has a possibly accidental one that can be found via BilingualBonus. Gaea has two reccurring (in-series) nicknames: one is "Dame Gaea" in the original French, which translates into "Lady Gaea" in English, the other is "Gaga". [[Music/LadyGaga When these two come together...]]
* Wiki/{{Wikipedia}} celebrated the [[MilestoneCelebration tenth anniversary of]] [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_featured_article/February_2014 "Today's Featured Article" in February 2014]] with Tropical Depression '''Ten'''. Then the rest of the week went for a poker Broadway: '''Jack''' Marsh; '''Queen''' Olga Constantinovna of Russia, [[Theatre/TheKingAndI The]] '''[[Theatre/TheKingAndI King]]''' [[Theatre/TheKingAndI and I]] and British flying '''ace''' John F. Bolt.
* [[WebVideo/MrRepzion Mr Repzion]] once made a video called "Vampire Rants On Why [[Literature/{{Twilight}} Twilight]] Sucks". [[note]] A reference to how vampires suck blood. [[/note]]
* {{WebVideo/RockedReviews}} calls {{Music/Metallica}}'s ''Load'' and ''[=ReLoad=]'' albums "two big loads," and accompanies this pun with [[ToiletHumour the sound of someone defecating]].
* In the pilot episode of ''Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale'', new guy Carlos the Scientist comes to investigate the radio station. His Geiger counter has a huge reaction when it gets near the microphone. [[spoiler: Clearly there's a lot of ''[[IncrediblyLamePun radio activity]]'' going on.]]

* On Website/{{IMDb}}'s old character pages, who got ID number [[NumberOfTheBeast 666?]] [[Film/TheOmen Damien]] [[TheAntichrist Thorn]]. The only other one with such a deliberate ID is [[Film/JamesBond 007]].
* The leader of the Love Cult in ''WebVideo/DontHugMeImScared'' is notably a butterfly. [[spoiler: He's a love bug!]]
* Jessica, the dandified, bow-tie wearing host of ''Podcast/FatFrenchAndFabulous'' is attracted to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, a coordinated system of trains and buses.[[spoiler:She's metrosexual.]]
* ''WebAnimation/MysterySkullsAnimated'':
** The unnamed ghosts with Lewis who pulsate with the music are Dead Beats.
** Lewis Pepper has died and come back as a fiery hot ghost. He's a [[spoiler:ghost pepper]].
** Mystery the "dog" seems to actually be a nine-tailed fox spirit, sometimes referred to as a kyuubi - nine-tails. Hence, he is [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Kyuubi-Doo]].
* The Website/CollegeHumor sketch "Zordon is a Racist" depicts the [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Green Ranger]] as Jewish to further highlight the unintentional UnfortunateImplications regarding some of the team colors. The footage used is from ''Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger'' or ''Zyuranger'' for short. It's pronounced "Jew Ranger".
* Virtual blogger WebVideo/AmiYamato never breaks {{kayfabe}}, not even acknowledging that she is a 3D animated character, but slips in subtle computer animation jokes from time to time. Her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxD2xGz-QPk makeup tutorial video]] cleverly uses terms that could apply both to makeup or 3D modelling - brushes, layering and so on. The cleverest has to be "preparing your skin for UV" - in a real makeup tutorial this would refer to protection from ultra-violet rays, but as Ami is a 3D model, she is referring to the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping UV co-ordinate system]] used for texture-mapping in 3D software.
* ''WebAnimation/FreedomToons'': He doesn't say it outright, but Seamus seems to be referencing the 'Clown World' meme in "JBP, Trump's Wind Mill Cancer, Jussie Smollett", focused on various short skits depicting a [[WorldGoneMad Bizarro upside-down world]] where Jordan Peterson's refusal to use NewSpeak causes Trans people to literally [[RetGone stop existing]], President Trump develops cancer from exposure to constant media windmills, and Jussie Smollet is vindicated as a saint for his actions.
* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'': In the WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail "butt IQ", Strong Bad says that according to the Transitive Butt Property, the stupidity of someone's butt is equal to or greater than the stupidity of someone's head. He uses Homestar as an example of someone with a stupid head, and thus with a butt that's at least as stupid, which seems to be a roundabout way of him calling Homestar a dumb-''ass''.
