* BeyondTheImpossible: One of Josh's specialties. As elaborated below, Josh's favorite thing is to find the limits of the games he plays and then immediately break them. For example, in ''Smartphone Tycoon'', he ends up selling nearly ''5 '''billion''''' times more cellphones than there are ''people on Earth''.

* BadBoss: If he’s given workers to manage, it’s guaranteed that he’ll treat them as psychotically as he would any other [=NPC=]. This is best shown in his video on ''Overcrowd'', where the subway’s entire staff end up depressed, fatigued and dropping like flies due to Josh’s meddling.

** In ''Planet Zoo'', Josh purchases over 100 giraffes at once and places them in a very small exhibit, causing several of them to merge into a "giraffe hydra". Later in the same video, something similar happens with gorillas.

* OverlyLongGag: At one point in ''Youtubers Life'', Josh finds how to make collabs with someone. He proceeds to try to make a collab with a youtuber woman. She doesn't accept, but Josh starts thinking it's because she doesn't like him enough. So he proceeds to improve relationships with her, making him an acquaintance, only to find out it's still not enough. So he proceeds to become her friend, then fill out her "friend" bar, then her special friend, then her boyfriend, then her fiancé, while she refuses to collab at every step, and ends up marrying her only to find out [[ShaggyDogStory she STILL refuses to collab!]]. He then proceeds to try to collab with one of his in-game coworkers... who accepts on the first try.

As he puts it in ''Planet Zoo'', "You know, it's weird, but the game's frame rate doesn't seem very steady when you add a whole lot of rubber duckies. It's almost like the game doesn't want you doing this. But if that were true, why does it fill me with such joy?"

* BlindIdiotTranslation: By its own admission, ''Streamers Company Tycoon'' was very poorly translated into English, leaving Josh baffled when the game asks, "Would you like to hold an activity to connect wheat with wheat?" He's worried that it means something very dirty, but it turns out to be a collaboration of two streamers chatting. (Apparently, in simplified Chinese, the character for "wheat flour" is similar to the one for "face"; the intended meaning was "face to face".)
