| 56 | [[folder:A-G]] |
| 57 | * ActuallyPrettyFunny: While playing ''Fortnite'', Badger aims at someone and prompts them to emote for their lives. |
| 58 | -->'''Player:''' [Does the Balance Board emote, which has them do surfboarding tricks on a board positioned on top of rolling a cylinder.]\ |
| 59 | '''Badger:''' ... [Audibly blown away by the emote] Alright that was cool as fuck you get to live. |
| 60 | * AllForNothing: Badger leaned towards this in ''"Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 and Some Drip"'' when he made bracket winner Mickey fight him as the "boss battle" for the tournament. [[spoiler:Ultimately defied; see TheBattleDidntCount]] |
| 61 | * ArtEvolution: The avatars representing Badger and his crew were usually animated frame-by-frame, until Badger got his hands on a mocap setup, and upgraded to full-motion animation for gags and skits. |
| 62 | * ArtificialIntelligence: Starting in ''[[VideoGame/WarThunder Banished to the Shadow Realm]]'', Skulker has added various AI clones of his friends to his arsenal, programming them to say things and sounding ''scarily'' accurate to the real deal. Initially he only had Badger and Bing, the former described as "Badger if he went into public broadcasting", and Bing describing his own as a "[[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants DoodleBing]]". In ''[[VideoGame/{{Fortnite}} Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite]]'' however, he's added Heavenly to his repertoire. They aren't ''perfect'' though, as the cadence of their speaking can be off at times, and Heavenly's briefly glitched during its debut. |
| 63 | -->'''[[pink:AI!Heavenly:]]''' [[pink:Yeah, man... oring. yah. lug. flarsh. shing. dingling.]]\ |
| 64 | '''Badger:''' Wait wait wait wait... [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Is that Swedish?]]\ |
| 65 | '''[[pink:Heavenly:]]''' [[pink:What the hell did I just say?]]\ |
| 66 | '''[[blue:Digi:]]''' [[blue:That is Heavenly as possessed by Beelzebub!]]\ |
| 67 | '''[[gold:Herbokuu:]]''' [[gold:The demons got him! Goddamn demons.]]\ |
| 68 | '''[[pink:Heavenly:]]''' [[pink:That shit was not real... I need you to take that away.]]\ |
| 69 | '''[[pink:AI!Heavenly:]]''' [[pink:Lurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurllurl!]]\ |
| 70 | '''[[teal:Pasta:]]''' ''(starting to panic)'' [[teal:I'm not liking this anymore...]]\ |
| 71 | '''Badger:''' Are you saying......are you saying "Lol"\ |
| 72 | '''[[teal:Pasta:]]''' [[teal:I'm not liking this anymore...]]\ |
| 73 | '''[[purple:Skulker:]]''' [[purple:He's saying "lurl".]]\ |
| 74 | '''[[blue:Digi:]]''' [[blue:The bot is having a stroke!]]\ |
| 75 | '''Badger:''' Did Heavenly just have a memory leak?\ |
| 76 | '''[[pink:AI!Heavenly:]]''' [[pink:And this shit right here. AHH-UHHHH...]]\ |
| 77 | '''Mickey''': ''(over laughter)'' Wait, I just realized...I just realized...wait until Skulker makes the AI speak backwards...\ |
| 78 | '''Badger:''' Wait... what was that?!\ |
| 79 | '''[[green:Geuce:]]''' [[green:I thought that was actually you for a sec!]]\ |
| 80 | '''Badger:''' Yo, is this the Heavenly "fish moan" moment? |
| 81 | * ArtisticLicenseLaw: |
| 82 | ** Played for laughs in "Destroy All Taxpayer Dollars" when Badger gets killed by Napoleon Bonaparte's friendly fire. In a mock court scene, a lawyer says his client pleads "oopsie-daisy." |
| 83 | ** Played for laughs in "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 and Some Drip" where a mock court scene has Herboku plead "nuh uh" to the charge of wire fraud. |
| 84 | --->'''Badger''': ''(reading chat)'' "YOUR HONOR, SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU WASN'T EVEN THERE" |
| 85 | * AscendedFanboy: Badger and Grouse were both hired by Overkill Software to make a short film parodying the infamous business card scene from ''Film/AmericanPsycho'' for 2023's April Fools Day. |
| 86 | * AscendedMeme: Badger has managed to wrangle a few sponsorship deals/additions to video games: |
| 87 | ** An off-hand joke asking if there's a "comically large spoon" to use as an ImprovisedWeapon in ''VideoGame/Payday2'' led to the developers adding one in along with a gold variant as an April Fools joke. |
| 88 | ** ''VideoGame/{{Totally Accurate Battle|Simulator}}grounds'' approached Badger after a few videos to provide a voicepack of in-game words- including [=SWAWS=]- and a crocodile outfit for players to wear. |
| 89 | ** And if Badger's not being sponsored by anything else, odds are he's selling his unique flavor of Gamer Supps, Guacamole Gamer Fart 9000. |
| 90 | * AuthorAppeal: Badger is a huge fan of ComicBook/PlasticMan. |
| 91 | * AuthorAvatar: A rotating roster of models from various video games are used to represent Badger and his crew, usually (but not always) corresponding with whatever game they're playing. |
| 92 | * TheBattleDidntCount: A rare positive version. The secret rule of Badger's ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'' tournament in "LORE ACCURATE VERGIL STOMPS MARVEL FOR $50 AND SOME DRIP" is that [[spoiler:fighting Badger doesn't mean the contestants lose the prize money if they lose and they only have to win the bracket. Badger explains that obviously being the nice guy that he is, he wasn't going to make his friends fight through a three hour tournament only to [[KickTheDog potentially keep the fifty grand by winning at the very end]]]]. |
| 93 | * BerserkButton: Geuce has, among others, issues with people [[PerverseSexualLust lusting over fictional characters]], bellowing "THEY'RE JUST ''POLYGONS''". |
| 94 | -->'''Geuce:''' ''(with gradually increasing anger)'' [[green:Stop calling the 3D avatar mommy. STOP CALLING THE 3D AVATAR MOMMY. '''STOP CALLING THE 3D AVATAR MOMMY.''']] |
| 95 | * BestialityIsDepraved: In ''[[VideoGame/{{Fortnite}} Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite]]'', Badger reads a comment from his Twitch chat involving this with pictures of a real frog and [[Manga/MyHeroAcademia Tsuyu Asui]]. Another clip has Bing as [[Film/TheDarkKnight the Joker]] imply he's going to have sex with his [[Memes/{{Pokemon}} Vaporeon]]. |
| 96 | -->'''Badger:''' "Wasn't a zoo shut down due to a MHA fan trying to bang a frog?" I've never heard of this.\ |
| 97 | '''Bing:''' It's my pokémon, Batman. I can do whatever I want with it. |
| 98 | * BetterThanSex: Badger notes that he has had sex with at least one woman, and it was still not as good as [[VideoGame/CallOfDutyModernWarfare2 the original 2009 Highrise map]]. |
| 99 | * BeyondTheImpossible: |
| 100 | ** In ''Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite'', Badger makes a joke headline about ''VideoGame/{{Fortnite}}'' having one trillion active players just from adding Zero Build mode. Earth has a recorded population of 8+ billion. |
| 101 | --->'''Badger:''' This has to be the first time ever that devs taking something out of the game made it perfect. "What if we made ''Fortnite'' without the Fortni--\ |
| 102 | [[BreakingNewsInterruption BREAKING NEWS]][[invoked]]: ''Fortnite'' reaches 1 trillion active players.\ |
| 103 | Jesus Christ all they did was take out building how did this shit happen so fast? |
| 104 | ** In ''Goblin Brain Rot Mode'', Heavenly is confused how Badger lived long enough to run out of ammo on "Shipment", the tiniest Call of Duty map ever where players normally die every few seconds. |
| 105 | * BlackComedy: Used ''a lot'' in his videos in various conversations, whether it be for fictional or real life related stuff, or a combination of the two. |
| 106 | * BornInTheWrongCentury: In "An Abstract Carnival of Pain", he describes the [=TOG2=] tank as one built for the wrong war. The British designed it with the assumption that World War II would be like World War I, but the Germans went for the [[ZergRush Blitzkrieg]]. It was only ever a prototype and never saw combat. |
| 107 | * BoomerangBigot: Played for laughs in ''Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite'' when Heavenly roleplays [[Manga/DragonBallZ Vegeta]] as a racist towards anime characters despite being one himself, shown by carrying a sign that says "NO ANIME." |
| 108 | * {{Bowdlerise}}: |
| 109 | ** The original version of ''Tomahawking Spiders For Trespassing'' ended up age-restricted on [=YouTube=], prompting Badger to release a second version with small differences. The reason for the restriction pertained to the "Wing Diver" character, as Badger represented them using the character model for Kasumi from ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive'', specifically one wearing SensualSpandex, and joking that the Wing Diver's [[PainMistakenForSex cries of pain sound more like they're about to orgasm]], Badger hearing it prompting him to say he ''muted'' all his hentai tabs. The new version released has the latter scene cut to a short clip of Wing Diver stuck in a web with ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'' ragdoll sound effects going off, and has Kasumi's character model changed to have her wearing a SailorFuku. |
| 110 | ** ''Mustard Beef Turns Rainbow Six to Ash'' had to have the "[[Film/{{Oppenheimer}} Call my girl Sloppenheimer the way I get this bomb head]]" joke from Heavenly removed after it got the video age-restricted. However, the offending clip has been put back into the video now. |
| 111 | *** The same video also had an AI!Badger clip censored to due to age restriction (This is also back in the video): |
| 112 | -->'''AI!Badger:''' Opps thought I was lacking, so I cut a hole in a watermelon and stuck my [[CurseCutShort di-]] |
| 113 | * BreadEggsBreadedEggs: In "Built Different, Built Stupid", Badger describes the weapons in ''VideoGame/Left4Dead'' as ranging from "silly shit" to "deadly shit" to "silly deadly shit." |
| 114 | * BreadEggsMilkSquick: In "High Impact Constructive Criticism," Clu says one of the group's friends, Julius, will, for instance, go from posting pictures of his cat on Discord to "[[WhamLine Here are the exact ingredients to make anthrax]]." |
| 115 | * BreathlessNonSequitur: Badger's editing style often sandwiches random lines and nonsensical conversation topics in-between whatever it is he's actually talking about, often without changing his or his friends' tones of voice. [[LampshadeHanging He calls it the "price of admission"]] in ''An Abstract Carnival of Pain'' and demonstrates such by showing the following clips in what's supposed to be a primer on [[MightyGlacier the TOG's]] destructive power in ''VideoGame/WorldOfTanks'': |
| 116 | -->'''Badger:''' "The ocean is a soup." Well, it's filled with microplastics, so I hope you're hungry.\ |
| 117 | '''[=DirtbagDustin=]:''' That's him, officer, he wasn't using the Wii wrist strap!\ |
| 118 | '''Badger:''' Yeah, [[ExactWords I cleared the house]]... ''[[DeathFromAbove off the fuckin' map]].''\ |
| 119 | '''Grouse:''' [[gold:"I will fucking kill you if you change the the [Costco] hot dog."]][[note]]paraphrasing a quote from Costco's founder to its CEO over the price of its $1.50 hot dogs[[/note]] |
| 120 | * CharacterCatchphrase: |
| 121 | ** For Badger and his buddies, it's generally some variation of "Hell yeah brother!" or "Ballin'." |
| 122 | ** There's also "YEET!" or "Yaw/Yah YEET!", for when they're making some form of risky attack or one-in-a-million shot. |
| 123 | ** SWAWS |
| 124 | ** If there's something in a game that catches Badger's interest, like mods or a game mode, he's quick to say "Sign me the fuck up!" |
| 125 | ** Getting a clutch kill in an FPS game will often lead to him shouting some variant of "I'm nuts!" |
| 126 | ** If Badger steals kills from other players, he says "I'm such a rat!" |
| 127 | * CharacterDerailment: In-universe, during "Sam Fisher Bodies Paid Actors", Badger considers [[VideoGame/SplinterCell Sam Fisher's]] appearance in ''VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege'' to be this. He says Sam's meant to be a stealthy operative you never see coming, not going in guns blazing. |
| 128 | -->'''Soldier:''' Boss, I swear there's nobody here. We swept the entire compound with 50 guys, the lasers are activated, and we've got a dozen dogs on patrol.\ |
| 129 | ''Sam makes his entrance playing [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind Il Vento D'oro]].'' |
| 130 | * ChewBubblegum: In "FOR THE EMPEROR", Badger says this as a Blood Angel. |
| 131 | -->'''Badger:''' I came here to do two things and two things only. Purge heretics and steal property, and I already stole your property. So let's do this. |
| 132 | * ClickbaitGag: Lampshaded in the ColdOpen of ''Built Different. Built Stupid.''; the group acknowledges the insane titles they could get from their [[BlatantLies lightly modded]] ''VideoGame/Left4Dead2'' experience. |
| 133 | -->'''Badger:''' That's like the worst [=YouTube=] clickbait title you could ever imagine. "[[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamKnight Arkham Knight]] saves [[Franchise/{{Halo}} Master Chief]] from [[Series/SesameStreet Elmo]] in front of Franchise/{{Shrek}} while carrying gnome?"\ |
| 134 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:"Not clickbait, gone wild! Sponsored by ''Raid: Shadow Legends''… Buy a Ridge Wallet…"]] |
| 135 | * ColorCodedSpeech: Badger and his friends have different text colors to show who's speaking. Who has what text color is often found in the descriptions of each video; the only constant is Badger's text being white. Badger [[LampshadeHanging makes note of this]] at the and of the ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' video, lamenting that his friends didn't stay the same color in-game to match their text colors. |
| 136 | * ContentWarning: |
| 137 | ** At the start of ''Tomahawking Spiders for Trespassing'', he's quick to give a warning to viewers that ''[[VideoGame/EarthDefenseForce Earth Defence Force 4.1]]'', and the video by proxy, contains giant spiders. |
| 138 | ** The very beginning of "robbing $124 from a free to play game" has an... interesting disclaimer: |
| 139 | -->'''Badger:''' This video contains [[SensoryAbuse extremely loud noises]], so if you're not a fan of landmines or [[ItMakesSenseInContext rap songs from 2004]], you should definitely leave, right now. ''(Cue an explosion sending his avatar flying)'' |
| 140 | * CostumePorn: In ''[[VideoGame/CallOfDutyModernWarfareII Goblin Mode Brain Rot]]'', one segment is dedicated to Badger & co. gushing over how TheJuggernaut wears Timbs as part of his heavily armored kit. |
| 141 | * CruelAndUnusualDeath: PlayedForLaughs when the word "ranch" gets mentioned... |
| 142 | -->'''Badger:''' No no no no no, we're not going in the direction of ''ranch''. I don't wanna see another video of Dustin killing a wasp with ranch dressing. ''(over screencaps of [[NotHyperbole a wasp getting drowned by a Hidden Valley Ranch bottle]])'' "Fuck you, you're going to the ranch dimension!" ''(breaks down laughing)'' |
| 143 | * DancePartyEnding: {{Inverted|Trope}}. The title screen for "HAMSTER CHIEF LOBSTERS THE FORTBITE" features a dance party involving Badger, Heavenly, and Bing, only for The Joker to blow them up, followed by Arkham Knight Batman punching Badger through a wall, and [[NoKillLikeOverkill then Thanos using the Infinity Gauntlet for a haymaker on Badger.]] |
| 144 | * DeathFromAbove: Inevitable given some of the games they play, be it orbital bombardment, [[ItMakesSenseInContext or a guy with a physics gun from Garry's Mod]]. |
| 145 | -->'''Badger:''' It's a bird, it's a plane--oh no, it's Lockheed Martin! |
| 146 | * DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Played for laughs in ''Built Different. Built Stupid.'' when Badger has [[VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption2 Arthur Morgan]] gun down [[Characters/MarvelComicsThanos Thanos]]. |
| 147 | -->"Everybody gangsta till Arthur Morgan starts fannin (sic) Thanos with a Winchester." |
| 148 | * DisproportionateRetribution: In "Destroy All Taxpayer Dollars", Clu tells a story about how he was driving in upstate New York and the license plate on the car in front of him said "IM HIM." (sic) Clu says the license plate made him laugh so hard he walked up to the driver's window and blasted him with a shotgun. |
| 149 | * DisqualificationInducedVictory: In "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 And Some Drip", Calvin's failure to show up for the tournament allows Badda to move to the next round. |
| 150 | * DoIReallySoundLikeThat: In "BANISHED TO THE SHADOW REALM", Badger and company are exposed to Skullker's AI copies of their voices for the first time. The results are mixed... |
| 151 | -->'''AI!Badger''': I'm smoking on Bhutanese garden grown dark evil pack. They watered this shit with the blood of 36 dragons. Shit's [[UsefulNotes/McDonalds so purple it should be asking me, "Where's Ronald?"]] GAMER. This shit will turn your pacemaker off. Nuclear levels of sour. This shit is what shot [[Music/TupacShakur Tupac]]. RIP my gamer for real, dawg. Peace. ''(everyone else is laughing)''\ |
| 152 | '''Badger''': Wait, who is this supposed to be?\ |
| 153 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:THAT'S ''YOU!'']] |
| 154 | ** And later, when Bing gets cloned, too... |
| 155 | --->'''Bing''': God, it's so much weirder when I don't know what the AI voice is gonna say. It feels like I'm sitting there with a Doodlebob Bing.\ |
| 156 | ''(Heavenly can be heard cackling)''\ |
| 157 | '''AI!Bing''': Don't call me Doodlebing, you fucking dingleborb. ''(everyone else laughs)''\ |
| 158 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:My fault, bot! My fault, slime!]] |
| 159 | * DontThinkFeel: In "MUSTARD BEEF TURNS RAINBOW SIX TO ASH", Badger views his footages and realizes he was winning more when he plays "like a dumbass" instead of seriously. For example, pre-firing down halls and shooting through walls. |
| 160 | * TheDreaded: Cloakers in ''Videogame/Payday2'' cause instant fear in the group, with Bing admitting that he had a camera make that noise in real life and got scared. |
| 161 | -->'''Bing:''' Dude, I bought a disposable camera and I turned the flash on and it made the Cloaker noise and I actually got scared. Like for a second. |
| 162 | ** There are also [[UsefulNotes/FurryFandom furries]] to Badger, as in Badger's joking words, "furries have such a huge power level they're not to be trifled with". He also notes that he's happy to have his videos become memes in the furry community so they don't pipe bomb his mailbox, and jokes that he's obligated to play ''VideoGame/LethalCompany'' because the creator's a furry lest he gets his kneecaps shattered and his mailbox pipe bombed. |
| 163 | * DudeNotFunny: During ''Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite'', when lifting up a Black Panther player in preparation to let an ally execute them, Badger makes ''this'' comment, leading to shock and disappointment from everyone, including himself: |
| 164 | -->'''Badger:''' Yo, come with me [[Creator/ChadwickBoseman Black Panther]], we're going to get some chemo thera--[[VerbalBackpedaling oh that—that's too soon, sorry]]...\ |
| 165 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:Wait a minute, son--?! Naah!]] ''(cue calls of disappointment from the others)''\ |
| 166 | '''Badger:''' WHY DID I THINK OF THAT FIRST, CHAT?!\ |
| 167 | '''Digi''': ...[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe HOLY SHIT.]]\ |
| 168 | '''Badger:''' Why did I think of that first...!? Chat, that's just one of those intrusive thoughts that like...\ |
| 169 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:Nah.]]\ |
| 170 | '''Digi:''' [[teal:Bro, rewind that fucking shit.]]\ |
| 171 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:Cut the--cut the stream, dawg.]]\ |
| 172 | '''Badger:''' Just kill me. Just drag me to heaven, just take me out of this reality.\ |
| 173 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:HEAVEN?! BITCH, YOU GOIN' TO]] ''[[pink:HELL!]]'' |
| 174 | * DumpStat: In "Unstoppable Moron Makes Nuclear Wasteland Noticeably Worse", for his SPECIAL, Badger puts all his points in Strength (10), Endurance (7), Agility (10), and Luck 10). His Perception, Charisma, and intelligence all suffer at 1, making his Courier DumbMuscle who can barely speak, but has the fastest hands in New Vegas. |
| 175 | * {{Eagleland}}: The gang all invoke Type 2 for comedy pretty often, but none more so than Grouse. He uses American vehicles and characters in games wherever possible (even maining Captain America in ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'') and enjoys playing up his gun-loving jingoistic side. |
| 176 | * EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Badger's earlier videos tended to feature ''actual'' footage of him interspersed throughout the video, mainly showing his reactions to more outlandish details or the like. Later videos however would shift to having him only appear at the very ''end'' of the video for a SigningOffCatchphrase. |
| 177 | * EasyModeMockery: In ''Tomahawking Spiders for Trespassing'', Badger advises any would-be ranger players to bring a rocket launcher if they’re playing on a difficulty “higher than [[TakeThat Journalist]].” |
| 178 | * EnragedByIdiocy: Not quite idiocy but more like sheer absurdity - During ''[[VideoGame/InsurgencySandstorm Destroy all Taxpayer Dollars]]'', when Badger makes a... ''very'' odd statement, it drives Heavenly insane from how absurd the statement was. |
| 179 | -->'''Badger:''' [[ARareSentence It'd be cooler if God was like a Funko Pop or something.]]\ |
| 180 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:...That is the--]]\ |
| 181 | ''(SmashCut to Badger seeing a chair being slammed clean through a window)''\ |
| 182 | '''Badger:''' DAMN. That is how mad Heavenly was. Heavenly was so mad, he put a CHAIR through a plate glass window. Look at this dawg! Oh my God Heavenly is mad...!\ |
| 183 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:I am pretty sure that was the most sacrilegious shit I've ever heard in my life.]] ''(Back at Badger, a few gun shots to said window do nothing)'' [[pink:Holy--I'm going back--]]\ |
| 184 | '''Badger:''' My bullets won't even go through that glass, and Heavenly got a chair through it!\ |
| 185 | '''Heavenly:''' '''[[pink:GOD AS A FUNKO POP?!]]''' ''(Breaks down laughing)''\ |
| 186 | '''Eekaj:''' [[cinnamon:That is actually cursed.]]\ |
| 187 | '''Heavenly:''' [[FreakOut I'm having cyberpsycho—I c—I can't—I c—someone help...call—call somebody...]] |
| 188 | * EpicFail: |
| 189 | ** Digi ends up suffering from a '''''BIG''''' one in ''Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite'' after choking at the end of a match (In particular when his target ran behind a tree), and both his friends and Badger's chat will not let him live it down. |
| 190 | --->'''Heavenly:''' [[pink:You have the world's...]] '''[[pink:WORST.]]''' '''''[[pink:EVERYTHING!]]'''''\ |
| 191 | '''Badger:''' Digi I feel like I got amphibians and frogs looking at me like, "this your boi?"\ |
| 192 | '''[=AceTheCaesar=]:''' YOU HAV FAILED THE VIBE CHECK\ |
| 193 | '''[=theghostmonkey08=]:''' GET HIM AWAY FROM THE STOVE!!!!;\ |
| 194 | '''[=TheBrokenBonez=]:''' My boy got that object permanence of a frog\ |
| 195 | '''Badger:''' Digi, we gotta lose more often just so I can see what the hell chat does to you.\ |
| 196 | '''[=InnySUS=] & [=bigboychungus89=]:''' DONT LET HIM COOK\ |
| 197 | '''Hazard_136:''' Damn digi threw\ |

| 200 | '''[=DigitalVagrant=]:''' [[teal:I am...face down on my fucking desk. I got nothing.]] |
| 201 | ** Digi has ''another'' one in "When the $10 Youtube Poop outsells ''Call of Duty''" where he accidentally kills the entire squad by prematurely launching the ship due to thinking they were all dead, costing them god knows how much salvage. This causes everyone to ''flip out'' on him. |
| 202 | --> '''Herboku:''' We are beating Digi with hammers. We're beat-- We are [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment lining Digi up and beating him with a brick]].\ |
| 203 | '''Calvin:''' [[green:HELLO!?]] '''[[green:HELLO!?]]'''\ |
| 204 | '''Digi:''' [[teal:I THOUGHT YOU WERE ALL DEAD! I THOUGHT YOU WERE ALL DEAD!]]\ |
| 205 | '''Badger:''' Digi, you are such a ''stupid moron.'' Do you know how much ''loot'' we had!?\ |
| 206 | '''Herboku:''' We had THOUSANDS!\ |
| 207 | '''Badger:''' Digi, we're gonna beat you to death with hammers, I hope you know that. I say that we revoke Digi's oxygen privileges. I think that those need to...those need to go away.\ |
| 208 | ''[[[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing cheering from the rest of the squad]]]''\ |
| 209 | '''Digi:''' [[teal:I don't feel respected here.]] |
| 210 | |
| 211 | * EveryoneHasStandards: In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', Badger says he doesn't stream or record any footage of ''Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0'' because most of the players are too racist. |
| 212 | -->'''Hunter:''' We were in Warzone, [Badger] was like "Yeah I don't wanna hear anymore."\ |
| 213 | '''Badger:''' Well it's just straight up racism and it's not even like an occasional racism. It's like this is full blast firehose racism.\ |
| 214 | '''Dustin:''' It's the floodgate of racism!\ |
| 215 | '''[=DigitalVagrant=]:''' The Big Gulp of racism. |
| 216 | * EvilKnockoff: A.I. Badger increasingly becomes this the more it appears, as Badger's friends force it to say things like incriminating itself for heinous crimes or threatening extreme violence. |
| 217 | -->'''A.I!Badger:''' This dude killed me in [[VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege Siege]], so [[DisproportionateRetribution I tanked his credit score and stole his catalytic converter]]. I'm wanted in 7 countries for reversing the flow of time with [[GargleBlaster ego-killing chrono-zaza]].\ |
| 218 | I'm fighting the shadow people in the fucking 7-11 parking lot. I'm the one they wrote the PATRIOT act about. I'm under federal investigation for crimes of Schedule 1 Swag. Don't fuck with me, man, I own seven shell companies that sell gas station dick pills. |
| 219 | * ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Or rather, shorter. Badger's facecam being angled down towards him obfuscates the fact that he is ''over six feet tall'', and he's gone on record saying people got metaphorical whiplash meeting him in person at public events. It ended up becoming a meme when him posing with the rest of Team Music/TPain during a charity VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege showed Badger stood a foot taller than everyone else. |
| 220 | * FacklerScaleOfFPSRealism: In "[[VideoGame/InsurgencySandstorm Destroy All Taxpayer Dollars]]", he describes the game as having the perfect balance between a ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty''-like arcade shooter (classic) and an ''VideoGame/{{Arma}}''-like simulation shooter (semi-simulation). |
| 221 | -->'''Badger:''' It is the perfect balance of dumbass lizard brain arcade shit...\ |
| 222 | '''Skullker:''' [[purple:Observer, this is station. Here's a picture of my nuts. Transmitting now.]]\ |
| 223 | '''Badger:''' ...and hardcore airsoft simulator shit.\ |
| 224 | '''Clu:''' ''(sounding like various voice clips put together)'' [[red:Enemy. Man. 300 meters. North. Fast. Fast. Fast.]] |
| 225 | * FailedASpotCheck: Heavenly fails one in the worst way. During "SCREAM AND LIE IN OUTER SPACE", Heavenly and Radar are both the Imposters, and right off the bat Heavenly goes to murder Badger. It's practically a miracle Radar managed to win the following 1v7. |
| 226 | -->'''Heavenly:''' ''(Mic unmuted)'' [[pink:The fuck you lookin' at, bitch?]]\ |
| 227 | ''(Heavenly murders Badger; after the killing cutscene, it briefly shows ''four witnesses'' around them before its reported...and people start breaking out in laughter)''\ |
| 228 | '''Bing:''' Well, well, well...\ |
| 229 | '''Badger:''' ''Four'' witnesses, chat? Is that ''four'' witnesses?\ |
| 230 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:'''''I FORGOT TO MUTE MY MIC!''''']] ''(breaks down laughing)''\ |
| 231 | '''Badger:''' Four. Fucking. Witnesses.\ |
| 232 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:I'm so pissed!]] |
| 233 | * FastballSpecial: During "MAD MAX WITH SPIDERS", Badger gets the idea of using grappling cables and a high-velocity flying vehicle to fling teammates with grenade javelins at incoming enemies... whether or not they agree to the plan. |
| 234 | -->'''Grouse:''' ''[[gold:YOU GET AWAY FROM ME, YOU GODDAMN HOOLIGAN.]]''\ |
| 235 | [[[LaserGuidedKarma Badger careens into a ceiling and explodes]]]\ |
| 236 | '''Grouse:''' [[gold:THAT'S WHAT YOU GET.]] |
| 237 | * FriendlyTarget: ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'' opens up with Digi shooting Skulker in a case of friendly fire, and it's not the first time. |
| 238 | -->'''Skulker:''' [[purple:THAT'S THE ''FOURTH TIME'' YOU'VE SHOT ME!]]\ |
| 239 | '''Digi:''' [[blue:Shut up! You just happen to be where my bullets are!]]\ |
| 240 | '''Skulker:''' [[purple:Don't left click! You're wasting ammo.]] |
| 241 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: PlayedForLaughs in regards to Digi, who is frequently seen by Badger and company as TheLoad and TheMillstone when they play games with him and who often receives a torrent of verbal abuse when he screws up. |
| 242 | --> '''Calvin:''' [[green:If I had two bullets and I had [[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler Hitler]], [[UsefulNotes/JosefStalin Stalin]] and Digi in front of me, I'd shoot Digi ''twice.'']] |
| 243 | * FunnyBackgroundEvent: In ''[[VideoGame/CounterStrike Quirked Up Operator Goated with the Swaws]]'', Skullker clutches a match at one point. Reading the chat beforehand has Heavenly beg for the enemy team to kill him so the crew won't have to put up with another round of his screeching and soundboard abuse. [[TemptingFate This only exacerbates Skullker's joy]]. |
| 244 | -->'''Heavenly:''' Do NOT let him win\ |
| 245 | '''Heavenly:''' We will never hear the end of it\ |
| 246 | (...)\ |
| 247 | '''Skullker:''' ''(laughs while on [[SensoryAbuse heavy autotune]])'' [[purple:YOU FUCKING '''THOUGHT!''']] |
| 248 | * FunWithAcronyms: In "THE DAY OF RECKONING", he and his buddies come up with a different meaning of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_defense_anti-tank_system ADATS]]... |
| 249 | -->'''Badger''': You know what "ADATS" stands for, right? '''A'''nti '''Dat''' '''S'''hit--whatever "dat shit" is.\ |
| 250 | '''Grouse''': [[gold:You may ask yourself, "What is 'dat shit'?" Just take your right index finger and point it at literally anything. "Dat shit. DAT SHIT."]] |
| 251 | * GenreSavvy: In his ''Far Cry 5'' episode when he goes after [[MasterOfIllusion Faith Seed]], he figures she's not really talking to him and punches her, proving him right when she disappears and turns into a hostage. He punches the hostage, who turns into a wolverine. |
| 252 | * GoneHorriblyRight: In ''The Empire Strikes Cringe'', Badger mods ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017'' to have ComicBook/SpiderMan, Banana-kin Skywalker, Franchise/{{Kirby}}, and [[Franchise/{{Halo}} Master Chief]] as Champions, only to end up against them 90% of the time. |
| 253 | ** In ''Built Different, Built Stupid'', Badger explains that by his own inability to "mod responsibly", he somehow made all the ''VideoGame/Left4Dead2'' player characters into the ''Payday'' gang. Without ''any'' animations and missing most of their textures. The fact that they spent several minutes walking around in static A-poses doesn't help...especially when said poses persist when Heavenly jumps off the roof...still with no animations. |
| 254 | --->'''Badger:''' This is definitely what sleep paralysis is like.\ |
| 255 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:And chat says I'm "down bad"; bro, I'm not down bad! I'm ascended, bitch!]]\ |
| 256 | '''Badger:''' "Bain! I'm missing my textures! Bain! BAIN!"\ |
| 257 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:"BAIN! I DIDN'T DOWNLOAD SOURCE! BAIN!" ''(breaks down laughing)'' "I'M STUCK!"]]\ |
| 258 | '''Grouse:''' [[gold:"Bain, what do you mean, 'I need GMOD'?!"]]\ |
| 259 | '''Badger:''' ''(as a still A-posing Heavenly drifts back up to the rooftop from the ground)'' ''That's'' how I revive you?! WHAT?! |
| 260 | [[/folder]] |
| 261 | |
| 262 | [[folder:H-P]] |
| 263 | * {{Heel}}: In "LORE ACCURATE VERGIL STOMPS [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 MARVEL]] FOR $50 AND SOME DRIP", as the FinalBoss of a $50,000 [=MvC=] tournament, he remarks on how everyone in the Discord call and Twitch Chat began not only rooting for his demise but also treating him like the villain. After Mickey stomps his shit in in the first round he describes how uncomfortable it feels, but after ''he'' manages to take the second round, [[ThenletMeBeEvil he lets himself fall into the persona]]. |
| 264 | -->'''Badger:''' On second thought, forget everything I just said. [[EvilFeelsGood This villian shit makes me feel unstoppable]]! Mickey's the champion that's beaten everybody else, the [[{{Face}} red hot crowd favorite]], and he absolutely ''crushed'' me in round 1. To take all that momentum he's built up over the last 3 hours and take it away is downright ''sublime''. |
| 265 | * HorrifyingTheHorror: In ''[[VideoGame/Payday2 Clowns Robbing Banks With Spoons]]'', Badger runs the Counterstrike Ace perk, which lets him automatically block and counterattack any melee attacks if he holds the melee button. This even works on [[TheDreaded Cloakers]] who very quickly start outright avoiding him, including running right past him to attack someone else. |
| 266 | * TheHyena: |
| 267 | ** In "[[VideoGame/CounterStrike Quirked Up Operator Goated with the SWAWS]]," Badger says Pasta has a very hyena-ish laugh. Pasta considers his laugh more like [[WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}} Dr. Rockso's]]. |
| 268 | ** Heavenly possesses a ''very'' distinct laugh. During ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', Badger likened him to being a Scooby-Doo villain. |
| 269 | * HyperspaceArsenal: |
| 270 | ** In "Unstoppable Moron Makes Nuclear Wasteland Noticeably Worse", Badger shows off why his particular SPECIAL build in ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' is [[GameBreaker/{{Fallout}} broken]] by getting his entire arsenal past the weapons check-in at the Tops Casino. |
| 271 | --->'''Badger:''' Okay. So they didn't find… two .357s, a .44 magnum, two 10mm pistols, THREE 9mm pistols, a combat knife, 8 sticks of dynamite, a frag grenade, three more sticks of dynamite, a mysterious magnum, a silenced .22, spiked knuckles, a switchblade, and a TIRE IRON. Sneak is broken. I'm gonna repair all this by the way. Don't have an aneurysm. |
| 272 | ** In "Banished to the Shadow Realm", Badger's Twitch chat has him bind his Thrust key to his Flares, making him launch flares whenever he speeds his jet up. At first he questions why he listens to their suggestion, but doing so makes him unable to be targeted by missiles. He's more concerned that he has infinite flares. |
| 273 | * IDoNotOwn: He's had to do this in his videos for companies that have been known to take down other content creators just for using their content. |
| 274 | ** In ''Built Different. Built Stupid.'', before he describes how the Special Infected in ''VideoGame/Left4Dead'' can pin players, he begs Creator/GamesWorkshop not to sue him for the following line beforehand… |
| 275 | --->'''[[TabletopGame/Warhammer40000 Space Marine]]:''' ''"BROTHER, I AM PINNED HERE!"'' |
| 276 | ** Just about every part of ''Tomahawking Spiders for Trespassing'' that involves [[NotZilla Erginus]] or the [[HumongousMecha Balam]] (which Badger just outright calls a Gundam) has some flavor of this. The use of Godzilla and Gundam models as stand-ins for the animations definitely doesn’t help. |
| 277 | --->'''Onscreen Captions:''' DO NOT SUE ME [[Creator/{{Toho}} TOHO COMPANY LTD]] JESUS CHRIST I AM BEGGING YOU\ |
| 278 | '''Badger:''' I’m gonna be honest, I don’t think I have a permit to kill this [Non-Descript Lizard].\ |
| 279 | '''Heavenly:''' ''*Erginus starts glowing*'' [[pink:Uh oh, it’s going]] [[Manga/DragonBall [Non-descript powerup]!]]\ |
| 280 | '''Heavenly:''' [[pink:The only thing stronger than this monster is Japanese copyright lawyers.]] |
| 281 | ** In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', he uses a picture of Black Panther in place of [=IShowSpeed=] so he doesn't get a copyright strike. |
| 282 | * ImADoctorNotAPlaceholder: In "[[https://youtube.com/shorts/Ix-U4Ld4oj0?feature=share almost superman]]," Badger, as a Medic, has to deal with his friends testing out how much damage they can take in ''VideoGame/InsurgencySandstorm'' before they need to be healed. |
| 283 | -->'''Badger:''' I'm a medic, not a sorcerer. I can't just sacrifice an NPC to cure his condition. |
| 284 | * ImmediateSelfContradiction: In ''Human Rock Basically Too Drunk to Die'', Badger shows off just how much he's getting into Duke's "Stoic" deck build... |
| 285 | -->'''Badger''': "Don't worry, dude. I won't lean into Stoic too hard." Two seconds later...\ |
| 286 | ''(Cut to Duke standing on a countertop, chugging from his flask with one hand while spraying automatic gunfire in the other, all while vigorously tea-bagging; behind him is a burning pallet of money, numerous defeated enemies, as well as Dallas slumped against the wall, crying out in pain)'' |
| 287 | * ImmigrantPatriotism: Loves his adopted country...especially using the Moon Landing to flex on the rest of the world, as seen in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR224wGOPLE "THE DAY OF RECKONING"]]: |
| 288 | -->'''Badger:''' Any time any other country talks shit about anything, "I'm just gonna go check the moon for any OTHER FLAGS real quick; I'll be right back."\ |
| 289 | '''Kublikong:''' [[teal:"Our military is completely equipped to handle the United States." "WE ATTACKED THREE BOATS--THEY DROPPED THE SUN ON US, TWICE."]] |
| 290 | * ImprobableAimingSkills: In "Banished to the Shadow Realm", Badger gets a kill while in a KW-2 on an M10 across the map even when the in-game range finder shows he has no target in range. |
| 291 | -->'''Badger:''' My rangefinder was like "You can't fucken hit that…" and I'm like, "Badger fucken ballin." No reticle, closing my eyes, just… hotness. |
| 292 | * InsistentTerminology: In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', when Grouse is accused of spreading misinformation, he corrects Badger that that he "doesn't misinform, [he] just lies." |
| 293 | * IrrationalHatred: Badger makes a point that he doesn't have one of the British when [[VideoGame/WorldOfTanks discussing their tank arsenal]]... unlike Clu, who ''does.'' |
| 294 | -->"[[red:I wanna bring [[UsefulNotes/CharlesIII Prince Charles]] back to life just so I can kill him again.]]"[[note]][[InUniverseFactoidFailure Charles was still alive when Clu said this]].[[/note]] |
| 295 | * IThoughtItMeant: In ''Tactical Fried Chicken'', to compound the already OffTheRails conversations throughout their play session of ''VideoGame/WorldOfTanks'', they heard "'wet' ammo rack" and thought it meant [[CrazyEnoughToWork the shells were lubed up with grease from a tank's deep frier installed for on-demand fried chicken (don't ask) and could be loaded much faster than usual]]. It actually means [[https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/4kdbx6/tanks_what_exactly_is_a_wet_ammo_rack_are_the/ something else entirely.]] |
| 296 | * LaserGuidedKarma: In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', Badger considers being put on the receiving end of a CurbStompBattle as punishment for him and his friends bullying people in Bronze rank. |
| 297 | -->'''Badger:''' Yo, I think that dude has a gunship by the way... (Badger gets blasted by a 135mm shell from an AC-130) Oh yeah he definitely has a gunship./Hmm… Why do I taste 135mm?/This is the lobby that we deserve after the last lobby. This is... I will totally take it. I will take it.\ |
| 298 | '''[=DigitalVagrant=]:''' We are being punished for our sins. |
| 299 | * LethalJokeCharacter: The thesis of "An Abstract Carnival of Pain" is that [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOG2 the TOG II tank from WWII]] is absolutely this. It "may not be a fast tank or a deadly tank, but it is definitely a ''problem'' tank." |
| 300 | -->'''Badger''': Every weapon you point at the TOG results in [[MexicanStandoff five weapons being pointed back at you]]. |
| 301 | * MathematiciansAnswer: In ''Tomahawking Spiders for Trespassing'', when the [[DeathFromAbove Rule of God weapon]] is used: |
| 302 | -->'''Eekaj:''' [[cinnamon:What's the blast radius on this bitch?]]\ |
| 303 | '''Herboku:''' Yes. ''(lasers rain down from the sky)'' That.\ |
| 304 | '''Eekaj:''' [[cinnamon:That--OH MY--]]''(everyone starts laughing as explosions ensue all over the battlefield)''\ |
| 305 | '''Badger:''' Now I know what you meant by "The blast radius is [[AllOfThem YES]]." |
| 306 | * MicrowaveTheDog: The end of "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 And Some Drip" has Badger reading a comment from the Twitch chat. |
| 307 | -->'''myownmedic:''' hawkeye vs vergil gives me mad hampter in the microwave vibes, the most unpredictable death in the universe. |
| 308 | * MistakenForRacist: In "LORE ACCURATE VERGIL STOMPS MARVEL FOR $50 AND SOME DRIP", Badger asks the innocent question of how he changes his character to "black ComicBook/SpiderMan", as in symbiote Spider-Man. The rest of his crew, already dead set on turning everything he says into a bit, play dumb and pretend he's talking about Miles Morales, a famously African-American Spider-Man. It quickly gets out of hand from there. |
| 309 | --> '''Skullker:''' [[pink:So when'd you realize you were racist, bro? Did that just come out naturally or did it...? Did you just wake up one day?]] |
| 310 | --> '''Bing:''' [[red:"On Juneteenth, popular [=YouTuber=] Russian Badger claims 'I will ACQUIRE Black Spider-Man'."]] |
| 311 | * MixedMetaphor: Played for laughs in "Banished to the Shadow Realm". Badger shows a meme about how to smoke a fish. Dustin's idea is to point a gun at a fish while Mickey's idea is to actually cook one on a grill. |
| 312 | * MoodWhiplash: Courtesy of ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', where the squad starts taking on a couple of kid players in ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyModernWarfareII'', with Badger using it as a point of skill-based matchmaking leading to easy wins and kids going wild. As such, we get a kid [[TakeOurWordForIt apparently calling Grouse the n-word]], one going "Bruhhhhh", someone saying that Badger is "so mean", another kid sadly saying they don't want to play as a result of the CurbStompBattle, another calling Badger a ''pendejo'', and another giving a BigShutUp and barking in anger as Badger tries to congratulate them on a good game. |
| 313 | -->'''Badger:''' Your voice literally has to ''wait in line'' to be heard. I heard you say "good game" and then I heard "I'M GONNA BOMB YOUR TRAILER PARK." |
| 314 | * MotionCapture: A major part of Badger's visual comedy involves the use of a motion capture setup used in tandem with Source Film Maker to create animated sketches based on discussions in the video and to augment his post-commentary. |
| 315 | * MundaneMadeAwesome: In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', Badger's buddies bust on him for his enthusiastic and seemingly awestruck commentary of his gameplay (mostly because they're on Shipment, and Badger was snatching up Care Packages and Emergency Air Drops) |
| 316 | -->'''Clu''': [[red:Every time you pick up a Care Package, I'm just picturing you enthusiastically walking through a grocery store like, "Wet wipes, 2 for $5?"]]\ |
| 317 | '''Badger''': "Yo, rising crust?"\ |
| 318 | '''Skullker:''' [[purple:"Wait, the crust ''rises''?"]]\ |
| 319 | '''Clu''': [[red:"Italian bread for $6?!]] |
| 320 | * NeckSnap: Played for laughs in ''High Impact Constructive Criticism'' when Skullker dares Bing to break his own neck. |
| 321 | -->'''Skullker:''' [[purple:Hey Bing, fall over break your neck, it'll be funny]]. ''(Bing snaps his own neck and falls limp, making Badger's party laugh)''\ |
| 322 | '''Badger:''' If I have to put the entirety of this sponsorship money to Bing's medical bills, I'm gonna be mad.\ |
| 323 | '''Skullker:''' [[purple:Well I mean it'd be pretty based, let's be honest.]] |
| 324 | * NerfArm: Lampshaded by Grouse in "[LAUGHS IN 71 ROUND DINNER PLATE]", that in ''VideoGame/ModernWarfare'', the .38 Special Snake Shot broke the game for being a OneHitKill on anyone even though in real life it "Has the same kinetic energy as a six year old with a Sockem Bopper." |
| 325 | * NoIndoorVoice: Geuce tends to have two speaking volumes: loud and louder. |
| 326 | * NoJustNoReaction: "THE DAY OF RECKONING" has one in the first few minutes. |
| 327 | -->'''Badger''': Let me find a local 7-Eleven to roll over in this [ADATS]...\ |
| 328 | '''Geuce''': [[green:You call it a gas station, I call it "a target-rich environment."]]\ |
| 329 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:Oh...Jesus Christ...]]\ |
| 330 | '''Badger''': Can I get a...can I get a [[Series/{{Jeopardy}} "Phrases I Do Not Wish To Hear A Second Time" for $500, please?]] ''(everyone else is laughing)'' |
| 331 | * NonIndicativeName: His "Guacamole Gamer Fart 9000" Gamer Supps energy drink isn't guacamole (or fart) flavored; it's actually a strawberry-kiwi blend. |
| 332 | * NoSell: In "The Empire Strikes Cringe", Badger tells how in ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017'', an exploit is used on multiple servers to make players immortal at 1 health. Badger doesn't see it being fixed in the future since EA has abandoned the game for other projects. |
| 333 | * NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer: In "BANISHED TO THE SHADOW REALM", Badger reiterates a statement from the ''VideoGame/WarThunder'' developers that leaking classified documents to them is very much not a good idea, referring to it as "TURBO illegal". |
| 334 | * NotTheIntendedUse: While playing ''VideoGame/SniperGhostWarriorContracts'', Badger gleefully stacks up all his anti-tank mines near someone then shoots a mine to send them hurtling across the map. |
| 335 | ** In ''[[VideoGame/EarthDefenseForce Earth Defence Force 4.1]]'', while discussing the Air Raider, who's basically the "support class", Badger had turned the class into a ''much'' more offense-based class due to their ''incredibly'' powerful weapons such as carpet bombs, orbital lasers, and Tomahawk cruise missiles, even calling it "nothing short of an insult to call Air Raider a support class". Best summarized in this quote: |
| 336 | --->'''Badger:''' Much like how q-tips aren't designed for your ears, Air Raiders aren't designed for damage, but in both cases: ''(Cue an Air Raider causing a massive explosion in the city via carpet bomb)'' I don't care. If you want me to play a support class as a support class, then don't give me a Tomahawk cruise missile as a weapon. |
| 337 | * OffingTheOffspring: Played for laughs in "[[VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017 Space Vietnam with Teddy Bears]]", with Grouse as Darth Vader killing Luke Skywalker. |
| 338 | -->'''Grouse:''' [[gold:Pog! I just murdered my son!]] |
| 339 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Throughout almost all of his videos, Badger and company never refer to each other by their actual names, only shortened versions of their usernames. |
| 340 | * OrphanedPunchline: In "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 And Some Drip", Skulker is SuddenlyShouting, having heard the same joke over and over. |
| 341 | -->[[purple:'''Skulker:''' To read the same copypasta we've heard a '''DOZEN FUCKING TIMES!''']] |
| 342 | * PaintingTheMedium: Throughout ''Ballin but at What Cost'' and the ColdOpen of ''High-Impact Constructive Criticism'', Bing’s microphone quality is ''so'' crusty and artifacted that his avatar (a soldier from ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyInfiniteWarfare'') is itself pixelated when it’s onscreen. |
| 343 | ** It happens again during ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', where he screams so loud that the audio software capturing his voice tries to dampen his very loud, very long scream and gives up part of the way through, shown by the camera physically pulling away from Bing, abruptly zooming back in once or twice, and then him turning greyscale and having a Windows 10 error. |
| 344 | * PerfectlyCromulentWord: In "Banished to the Shadow Realm", Badger has the Twitch chat spam the word "WHERMST" when there's a free plane unit during tank matches. It's defined as location, reason, and background context in one word. |
| 345 | * PhraseCatcher: Skullker's default response to "[[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} why are you like this?]]" is to use his soundboard to loudly fart into the microphone. |
| 346 | -->'''Eekaj:''' [[cinnamon:Why are you like this? Why do we--]]''(Skullker plays a fart sound effect for several long seconds...it cuts out a couple times, and the clip sounds like it's breaking down by the end)''[[cinnamon:...why does it sound like a fog horn?!]]\ |
| 347 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:It's Ezekiel's horn![[note]]Mistranscribed as 'Ezekiel Torn' in the subtitles[[/note]] The Lord is coming back for us! TAKE ME, GOD!]] |
| 348 | * PoorCommunicationKills: In ''Mustard Beef Turns Rainbow Six To Ash'', Badger accidentally kills one of his squadmates with a grenade and justifies it very poorly. |
| 349 | -->'''Badger:''' I said "Oh no"; you should have known. |
| 350 | * PopCulturalOsmosisFailure: |
| 351 | ** Martin Copping (the voice of [[VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege Mozzy]]) leads to a couple during his appearance in ''Clowns Robbing Banks with Spoons''. First, Martin tries to tell Badger about a TV show that aired in Australia in 1996, and is shocked that Badger would have been two years old when that show was on. Later, he’s browsing through masks when he sees [[UsefulNotes/GeorgeWBush “The 43rd”]] and mistakenly thinks it’s UsefulNotes/RonaldReagan. |
| 352 | ** Badger doesn't watch ''that'' much anime, so while he's seen a few like ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' and ''Manga/DragonBall'', he's left unaware of some of the bigger hits in recent memory like ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' and ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba''. ''Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite'' displays this in particular, having no idea who All Might is, and [[AccentOnTheWrongSyllable mispronouncing Nezuko's name.]] In the same episode, he says it goes both ways. He may not know much about non-[=JoJo=] anime, but he has "stacks on stacks" of UsefulNotes/LeBronJames lore. |
| 353 | --->'''Badger:''' As someone who grew up on computers without the internet, it's unbelievable that I can go "Who's that smiley dude with the funky haircut?" and ''thirty'' of you ''My Hero Academia'' [=MFs=] will rise outta chat like--(Cue thirty All Mights marching menacingly towards Badger) |
| 354 | *** He also admitted he "doesn't know the WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry lore...by not knowing which was Tom and which was Jerry. |
| 355 | ---->'''Beans''': Who do you think wins in a fight? Goku or Tom & Jerry?\ |
| 356 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:Tom and Jerry.]]\ |
| 357 | '''Digi''': Tom and Jerry, all day.\ |
| 358 | '''Badger''': But that's Tom ''and'' Jerry; that's not fair. Which one is Tom and which one is Jerry?\ |
| 359 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:Tom is the rat.]]\ |
| 360 | '''Beans''': Tom is the...\ |
| 361 | '''Digi''': ...[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe JESUS CHRIST, BADGER.]]\ |
| 362 | '''Badger''': ''(indignant)'' Yo, I don't know the Tom and Jerry lore! Fuck you! ''(the others laugh and talk over one another)'' Who's the guy that [[WesternAnimation/MouseTrouble sticks the Mossberg .500 into the wall and it bends and comes back towards his head?]]\ |

| 366 | [[folder:R-Z]] |
| 367 | * RageBreakingPoint: |
| 368 | ** Geuce reached this in Badger's Twitch Rivals video on ''VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege'', regarding Heavenly's antics during the game: |
| 369 | --->'''Geuce:''' [[green:HEAVENLY WAS LITERALLY EATING A FUCKING PIZZA, BRO, LIKE COME ON!]] ''*Everyone else cracks up*'' [[green:DO YOU…]] ({{Beat}}) [[green:I'VE GOT A TEAMMATE EATING A FUCKING DOMINO'S PIZZA… WHILE I'M JUST OUT HERE TRYNA MAKE RENT!]]\ |

| 371 | ** In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', Geuce was so utterly fed up with the UsefulNotes/TacoBell bong sound that he blows up at Pasta when he hears it. |
| 372 | --->'''Pasta:''' I'm about to hit em with that... *bong*\ |
| 373 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:Stop soundboarding the Taco Bell bong! That's like a 8-month old meme! STOP! STOP!]]\ |
| 374 | '''Pasta:''' Cry about it...\ |
| 375 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:I FUCKEN--'''I'M SCREAMING ABOUT IT MOTHERFUCKER! STOP!''']]\ |
| 376 | '''Badger:''' Genuine vitriol, dawg. If he was next to you, he was about to throw his [[KitchenSinkIncluded kitchen sink]] at you. |
| 377 | ** Heavenly using Vergil in the ''Marvel vs Capcom 3'' tournament gets Geuce more than a little heated both in chat where he's screaming they should have banned Vergil entirely and in person where he eventually snaps when Vergil continues to repeatedly get Heavenly out of situations that would be damned near hopeless for any other character. |
| 378 | --->'''Geuce:''' '''''[[green:HE'S PLAYING VERGIL, DUDE!!!]]''''' |
| 379 | * TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: In "[[VideoGame/WarThunder Banished To The Shadow Realm]]", Skullker uses AI to clone Badger's voice and deliver this absolute gem: |
| 380 | -->"YOU FUCKING FELL OFF, BRO. YOUR BEATS SOUND LIKE THEY WERE RECORDED IN AN ACTIVE WAR ZONE. YOUR BARS ARE SO FUCKING BAD THEY MAKE ME WANT TO DRILL OUT MY EARDRUMS WITH A POWER DRILL." |
| 381 | * RecordNeedleScratch: One occurs in "THUNK THUNK ZOFIA" when Badger recounts Zofia's FreudianExcuse of nearly being [[KidsAreCruel drowned by three boys]] ForTheEvulz, followed by Badger taking a few seconds to contemplate [[LetMeGetThisStraight the insanity of what he just read]]. |
| 382 | -->'''Badger:''' Yeah, after jogging my memory, I can't ever remember doing that as a kid. It was always "Let's go play hockey at the rink!" or "Let's go ride our bikes!", not "Let's go drown a local village girl in the lake!", that just never came up. |
| 383 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: In "[[VideoGame/RemnantFromTheAshes Eyes Glow Crusade]]," Badger shows off the Hunter's Mark Weapon Mod which allows him and Grouse to do extra critical damage and see enemies through walls while it lasts, giving them glowing red eyes. |
| 384 | * ReferenceOverdosed: Each video is filled to the brim with {{Shout|Out}}-Outs and discussions about different topics and media. |
| 385 | * RefugeInAudacity: A good portion of Badger's humor stems from this, making very over the top comments that would be offensive in many normal situations, yet are so over the top and exaggerated that it becomes comical. Such as punting Baby Yoda, saying the three alignments are "Lawful, Chaotic, and Autism", or casually talking about selling people into slavery in the Mojave Desert. |
| 386 | -->'''Badger:''' I heard you say "good game" and then I heard "I'm gonna bomb your trailer park." |
| 387 | * RootingForTheEmpire: Plenty of In-Universe examples: |
| 388 | ** Sides with [[TheHorde Caesar's]] [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Legion]] over [[TheRepublic The NCR]] in his ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' playthrough because [[IntimidatingRevenueService he doesn't want to pay taxes.]] |
| 389 | ** He also makes it quite clear he sides with The Empire in ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017'', constantly referring to the rebels as scum. |
| 390 | * RuleOfFun: Consistently enforced; the crew will frequently mess around with suboptimal strategies, and they’ve lambasted StopHavingFunGuys on several occasions. |
| 391 | -->'''Pasta on [[StopHavingFunGuys Tryhards]]:''' “Damn, you liked all this shit? Here’s me ''not giving a fuck.''”\ |
| 392 | '''Heavenly on people who play ''World of Tanks'' [[SelfImposedChallenge exclusively in first-person]]:''' [[pink:That's awful. Why would you handicap yourself like that?]] ''[[SarcasmMode “hnnnng, my immersion”]]''… [[StinkSnub How about you immerse yourself in a shower, bro?]] |
| 393 | * RunningGag: |
| 394 | ** Each video/stream contains at least one M1 Garand reload sound making an appearance. |
| 395 | ** Badger's current motion capture avatar getting shot mid-sentence and the next one taking over happens a lot too. |
| 396 | ** Many videos and streams that also feature Skullker will include moments where he spams meme sound effects and voice changing effects from his soundboard, with varying degrees of annoyance coming from both his Twitch chat and Badger's, as well as others playing alongside him and Badger. |
| 397 | ** Starting with "Destroy All Taxpayer Dollars", his avatar has a tablet on his chest that displays memes and reactions. |
| 398 | ** In "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 and Some Drip", Geuce is cut off by an error message when he gets into NoIndoorVoice territory. |
| 399 | -->'''Geuce:''' '''[[green:HE'S PLAYING]] [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry VERGIL]] [[green:DUDE-]]''' |
| 400 | ** If the topic of [[UsefulNotes/FurryFandom furries]] comes up in either his videos or his Twitter, he will do everything to please them on the fear that they will send a pipe bomb in his mail. |
| 401 | * SanitySlippage: PlayedForLaughs with ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', which details how Badger and his friends slowly succumb to "brain rot" and lose their minds as they play ''Modern Warfare II'', until they enter "Goblin Mode" and become absolute degenerates. Special mention goes to Digi, who starts LaughingMad every time he gets the helicopter and goes MoreDakka on everyone. |
| 402 | -->'''[[teal:Digi:]]''' [[teal:Yes! Chopper Gunner, bitches!]]\ |
| 403 | '''Badger:''' Call it in, call it in. Go off, Digi. Go off.\ |
| 404 | '''[[teal:Digi:]]''' [[teal:I actually earned one motherfuckers!]] (begins laughing like crazy as he pilots the helicopter.)\ |
| 405 | '''[[gold:Grouse:]]''' [[gold:Those noises that were coming out of you were inhuman. Like, what was that?]]\ |
| 406 | '''Badger:''' Digi can definitely go Goblin Mode really quickly, if he needs to. |
| 407 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: |
| 408 | ** In ''Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite'', Heavenly is upset about Digi costing their team the game, giving the team a breakdown on how he nearly saved the game. Heavenly is upset and logs off. |
| 409 | --->'''Heavenly:''' [[pink:I clutched us a game and Digi just had to look left, like… I had to fly in, rez y'all, fly out, get slurp[[note]](shields)[[/note]], fly back in and Digi just had to figure out which way his wrist goes. What the fuck. I need, I need, I n- I gotta use the bathroom or something, bro. I gotta go to COLLEGE or something. I can't be with these muhfuckas.]] |
| 410 | ** In "when the $10 youtube poop outsells call of duty", Badger gets whispered by Loaf to teleport him out of the bunker they're in. Badger says he's not gonna bother wasting resources rescuing him since he's busy looting. Just as he leaves, he hears Loaf scream "[[OhCrap Oh shit]]!" Badger goes back inside to see if Loaf's still alive, only to find his dead body [[AllWebbedUp cocooned]] by a spider. Soon as he sees Loaf's body, he turns tail and heads back out. |
| 411 | --->'''Badger:''' No way. I gotta see what happened. Yo Loaf, are you good? Loaf! Loaf, can you hear me? Is there a Loaf still alive in here? (''Badger finds Loaf's body cocooned and hanging from the rafters'') That answers my question. I think I'm done here. |
| 412 | * SeinfeldianConversation: Another way of interpreting the banter between Badger and his friends when it's not specifically related to the game they're playing. |
| 413 | * SemperFi: As noted during a podcast appearance, Badger completed basic Marine training, but dropped out ''on the day of his Boot Camp graduation'' to pursue a business degree. |
| 414 | * SensoryAbuse: |
| 415 | ** At one point, Skullker demonstrates that he has AutoTune on his setup. And he promises that he'll turn up the auto-tuning percentage by 1% for every 100 bits (US$1) donated. Badger points out that he's going to max that out in no time...[[note]]And that's ''before'' someone drops 10,000 bits on Skullker[[/note]] |
| 416 | -->'''Skullker:''' [[purple:''(disgusted sigh)'' This is bad. We're already at 41% guys...]]\ |
| 417 | '''Badger:''' YO. Even ''your exhale'' was autotuned!\ |
| 418 | '''Skullker:''' [[purple:71%...]]''(everyone else starts laughing)''\ |
| 419 | '''Badger:''' What?! WHAT?!\ |
| 420 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:You sound like a fucking Decepticon charging up, bro! What the fuck?!]]\ |
| 421 | '''Skullker:''' [[purple:SEVENTY-ONE! AAAAAAAAAGH--]]\ |
| 422 | '''Badger:''' Bring the pitch back down! It's--\ |
| 423 | '''Skullker:''' [[purple:''(highly autotuned)'' It's not the pitch moving, that's just me existing.]] |
| 424 | ** Most of Geuce's appearances in "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50" have his mic cranked up for several memorable lines: |
| 425 | --->'''''[[green:[[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica THAT'S MY BOI]]! THAT'S MY BOI! YES, SIR! YES, SIR! GOD DAMN! GOD--]]'''''\ |
| 426 | '''''[[green:HE'S PLAYING VERGIL, DU--]]'''''\ |
| 427 | '''''[[green:DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN, MICKEY WITH THE METAL CHAIR, OUTTA FUCKEN NOWHE--]]'''''\ |
| 428 | '''''[[green:THAT WAS FOR MANHATTAN! THAT WAS FOR THE BIG APPLE! THAT WAS FOR NI--]]''''' |
| 429 | * SerialEscalation: In "Tomahawking Spiders for Trespassing," Badger describes the Ravagers' strategy of invading Earth to be throwing [[ZergRush waves of enemies]] at you, [[PaletteSwap new variants]], a [[KingMook bigger version of an enemy]] or [[BlackoutBasement make you fight in the dark]]. It starts off simply with ants, then moves up to spiders, then drones/robots. He then says that after the robots comes "the entire dragon population of [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]]." |
| 430 | -->'''Badger:''' I don't know what's happening anymore.\ |
| 431 | [[pink:'''Heavenly:''' What's happening? My brother in Christ you are the Dragonborn.]] |
| 432 | * SeriousBusiness: Played for laughs. Near the end of ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', Geuce and Bing get into a brief argument over pickles to the point where they're screaming at each other to continue the bit. |
| 433 | -->'''Bing:''' dude i definitely love BITING into my sandwich... and then... leaving with an entire pickle slice in my mouth.\ |
| 434 | '''Badger:''' Dude, you're also transmitting in-game, this is getting way too intense for a pickle story.\ |
| 435 | '''Bing:''' NOBODY likes '''PICKLES!'''\ |
| 436 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:Bing, I will eat bread and butter by the fucken ''SLICE'' out the--]]\ |
| 437 | '''Bing:''' NO YOU '''WON'T!!!'''\ |
| 438 | '''Geuce:''' '''[[green:I WILL!!!]]'''\ |
| 439 | '''Bing:''' '''''AAAAA[---AAAA---]AAAAA[---AA---]AAA'''''--[Audio cuts out fully]\ |
| 440 | '''Badger''': Yo, you either broke Discord, or in-game audio. ''(Heavenly laughs)'' |
| 441 | * ShapedLikeItself: In "An Abstract Carnival of Pain", Badger's attempt to describe how heavy the TOG is at eighty tons is... less than helpful. |
| 442 | -->'''Badger:''' For all you visual learners out there, imagine you have a ton. ''(a concrete highway divider drops into the background)'' Now imagine you have seventy-nine more tons. ''(seventy-nine more concrete highway dividers drop into the background)'' |
| 443 | * ShoddyKnockoffProduct: In "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 and Some Drip", when Badger is asked about what controller he's using for ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', he considers it a "bootleg piece of shit." The controller is shaped like a Playstation controller with an Xbox button layout. |
| 444 | -->'''Badger:''' Am I playing on pad or stick? I'm playing on a controller from China that I can barely read. I'm pretty sure I got the Dormammu 600 right here. It's got a D on it.\ |
| 445 | '''Zyzx:''' Bro, he got the PLOYSTATION dude.\ |
| 446 | '''Badger:''' I got the Smangsmug. |
| 447 | * ShortRangeShotgun: Averted in "Destroy All Taxpayer Dollars." The KS23 does just as much damage at long range as it does point blank. Badger treats it more like a sniper rifle than the actual sniper rifles. |
| 448 | * ShoutingShooter: Digi is practically the namesake of ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'' with how his demeanor goes from relatively collected to "cartoonish gremlin" the moment he gets an attack chopper killstreak. |
| 449 | -->'''Digi:''' '''CHOPPER!!''' '''''CHOPPEEEEEEERRR!!!'''''\ |
| 450 | '''Badger:''' Remember, R is your missiles--\ |
| 451 | '''Digi:''' I'M ALREADY OUT! ''[[MacrossMissileMassacre YOU THINK I DIDN'T USE 'EM ALL IN THE FIRST TEN SECONDS?!]]'' |
| 452 | * ShownTheirWork: Badger and his crew are very knowledgeable when it comes to guns and military terms and will flaunt that knowledge frequently when they notice inaccuracies in games, or just for the sake of a joke. Clu once jokingly compared their knowledge to him "sitting at the airsofters' lunch table". |
| 453 | * SillySimian: In "REJECT CLOAKER, RETURN TO MONKE.", Heavenly shows off the monkey mask he plans to wear, which also initiates the third act of the video (wherein Badger describes shifting into his "final form" by putting a laser sight and a suppressor on his M1 Garand, "which only a literal ape would do") |
| 454 | -->'''Badger''': Who is it, Heavenly?\ |
| 455 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:It's fucking Trainwrecks!]]\ |
| 456 | '''Badger''': It's fucking Trainwrecks!\ |
| 457 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:a.k.a. Fucked Up Day! a.k.a. Squad W!]]\ |
| 458 | '''Badger''': Oh my god!\ |
| 459 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:a.k.a. ''(leans into mic)'' RETURN. TO. MONKE.]] |
| 460 | * SimpleYetAwesome: In "God Has Left The Server", Badger holds this view In-Universe regarding weapons like the M1 Garand, Steyr AUG, and Mossberg 500 shotgun in ''Totally Accurate Battlegrounds''. |
| 461 | -->'''Badger:''' Basic doesn't equal bad. |
| 462 | * SomeDexterityRequired: In "Banished to the Shadow Realm", Geuce talks about how he had a SelfImposedChallenge during a stream of ''VideoGame/DeathStranding'' where his audience would change his keybinds when he fell. |
| 463 | -->'''Geuce:''' [[green:I was streaming ''Death Stranding'' the other day and I had it to where every time I fell chat would change a keybind. Walk forward was on O, strafe left was on NUMPAD 3, aim was on 7, shoot was on SCRLWHL DOWN it was impossible to play.]]\ |
| 464 | '''Badger:''' I'm tryna picture an actual character using those binds. Just like… pain.\ |
| 465 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:I gave myself actual arthritis.]] |
| 466 | * SpamAttack: Used by Digi during "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 and Some Drip", as one of his final strategies is to spam Hulk's Gamma Wave during his match with Grouse... Much to Heavenly's anger from the audience, who demands for Digi's severed head as a result of his shameless strategy. |
| 467 | -->[[pink:'''Heavenly:''' KILL HIS ASS, PLEASE! Do not let this motherfucker progress, I don't wanna anyone else do this! Someone taught him how to play like a bitch and I'm mad! I don't wanna see this! KILL HIM! PUT THE CONTROLLER AROUND- ''(Breaks down laughing)'']]\ |
| 468 | '''Badger:''' No, we are not putting a controller around somebody's neck and twisting it, it is a ''wireless'' controller, you can't even do that. |
| 469 | * StockSoundEffects: Badger regularly uses [[VideoGame/HalfLife2 Combine soldier]] death sounds for his videos. |
| 470 | * SuddenlyShouting: Inverted in ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'' when Digi keeps shooting Skulker and the latter goes from shouting at the top of his lungs to speaking calmly between sentences. |
| 471 | -->'''Skulker:''' [[purple:THAT'S THE ''FOURTH TIME'' YOU'VE SHOT ME!]]\ |
| 472 | '''Digi:''' [[blue:Shut up! You just happen to be where my bullets are!]]\ |
| 473 | '''Skulker:''' [[purple:DON'T LEFT CLICK! You're wasting ammo.]] |
| 474 | * TakeOurWordForIt: In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', Badger discloses that streaming ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty'' is nigh-impossible because the people he plays against are too racist to record, especially when Badger and company get called racial slurs ''by children.'' |
| 475 | * TakeThat: His videos on ''VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege'' has him express his irritation for Dokkaebi's character by saying she makes [[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} D.Va]] [[StealthInsult look likeable]], shortly before having WebVideo/FilthyFrank throw D.Va in the trash. |
| 476 | * ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: In "Tomahawking Spiders for Trespassing," while playing as Air Raider, Badger fires a [[KillSat Satellite Laser E]] on one single spider. |
| 477 | -->[[pink:'''Heavenly:''' Are you calling a satellite on that one spider?]]\ |
| 478 | '''Badger:''' Yes. |
| 479 | * ThisIsGonnaSuck: While waiting to play VideoGame/WarThunder in "BANISHED TO THE SHADOW REALM"... |
| 480 | -->'''Badger''': ''(reading)'' "Have a pleasant flight." In an A-10 Warthog? Un-fucking-likely. |
| 481 | * TongueTied: Clue, at the end of "Destroy All Taxpayer Dollars" |
| 482 | -->'''Clu''': [[red:Gamers joining CTE like, "Oh, I don't wanna impose..." I'm about to impo--im--im--I'm a--ah--''(sounding like he's giving a lecture)'' The Industrial Revolution and its consequences...]]\ |
| 483 | '''Kublikong''': ''*repair tool noises*''\ |
| 484 | '''Geuce''': [[green:...what the--]]\ |
| 485 | '''Eekaj''': What the fuck?!\ |
| 486 | '''Badger''': Are you...are you repairing...\ |
| 487 | '''Geuce''': [[green:HOW DO YOU DO THAT?]]\ |
| 488 | '''Badger''': Are you ''repairing'' our conversation?! |
| 489 | * TookALevelInDumbass: Invoked in "[=ARMORLOCKARMORLOCKARMORLOCK=]" while talking about playing ''VideoGame/HaloReach''. Badger says it starts off by being able to say "Master Chief is on the cover of that Mountain Dew bottle." After a couple hours of games, it devolves into "Dey put da Mamster Chief in da soda." |
| 490 | * TooMuchInformation: At the start of "[=ARMORLOCKARMORLOCKARMORLOCK=]", Badger talks about his chronic [[PottyFailure bed-wetting]] as a child/teen... |
| 491 | -->'''Badger:''' Take it from someone who wet the bed until he was like, fourteen: I have a real tier list for diapers. Good Nites ''cannot'' be topped. They are S-tier. S. Tier. Dawg, you can down three two-liters of Mountain Dew and you could go to sleep, your ass ain't wettin' the bed. That--that's basically like wearing a mattress around your pelvis, dawg.\ |
| 492 | '''Grouse:''' [[gold:I don't think I was prepared for this conversation.]]\ |
| 493 | '''Geuce:''' [[green:I feel like I've been flashbanged by words!]]\ |
| 494 | ''(game play footage)''\ |
| 495 | '''Jello:''' [[teal:You're just kinda dropping this on us out of nowhere!]]\ |
| 496 | '''Badger:''' ''(reading the chat)'' "Hold up, Badger, fourteen?!" Yes; 1-4. I was well into junior high and I was still a threat to my parents. ''(everyone else laughs)'' |
| 497 | * TournamentArc: In "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 and Some Drip", Badger's friends have a tournament where the winner gets $50,000 and a pair of Nike Air Jordans. Mickey is the ultimate winner, though he chooses to give away $8,000 to his friends. |
| 498 | * TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: During ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', the gang are left in shock-induced hilarity as a result of some... interesting encounters with kids in ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyModernWarfareII''. |
| 499 | -->'''Grouse:''' [[gold:Holy shit, that kid just called me the n-word...''(wheezing in laughter)'' These kids are actually fucken psychopaths...!]]\ |
| 500 | ''(Later on, a kid proceeds to call Badger a "pendejo")''\ |
| 501 | '''Badger:''' ''(On the verge of laughing)'' He just called me an asshole in Spanish! |
| 502 | * ViolationOfCommonSense: In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', [=DigitalVagrant=] wonders how the "Shipment" map, which is a cargo ship, hasn't sunk from the constant gunfire, grenades and artillery hitting it. |
| 503 | -->'''[=DigitalVagrant=]:''' How is there anything left of this boat? How is there anything left of this section of the ocean?\ |
| 504 | (Badger gets a kill with a 135mm shell on the AC-130)\ |
| 505 | '''Badger:''' Yes, sir!\ |
| 506 | '''[=DigitalVagrant=]:''' By sheer artillery alone we should've tunneled our way to {{Atlantis}} by now. |
| 507 | * TheUnfettered: Badger's summary of his AI doppelganger in "[[VideoGame/WarThunder Banished to the Shadow Realm]]". |
| 508 | -->"I just love how aggressive AI me is. He's just going full throttle. He's tellin (sic) you how it is." |
| 509 | * UniformityException: In "Lore Accurate Vergil Stomps Marvel for $50 And Some Drip", Badger is confused why, out of 50 characters in ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', one of them is [[VideoGame/{{Okami}} Amaterasu]], who is a divine wolf goddess. |
| 510 | -->'''Badger:''' Why is there a dog here named Amaterasu? (pronouncing it "amateur-asu")[[note]]what the dawg doing[[/note]] Who brought a dog to a fight where half the characters [[MoreDakka have guns]]? |
| 511 | * VitriolicBestBuds: In ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'', while Badger is talking about expecting civility in ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyModernWarfareII,'' he brings up that his friends aren't nice to him or each other, so he has no room to complain about strangers. |
| 512 | * WantedPoster: Badger (or rather, his crying seal avatar) appears on one in [[VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas "Unstoppable Moron Makes Nuclear Wasteland Noticeably Worse"]]: |
| 513 | -->WANTED: INSUFFERABLE MORON\ |
| 514 | DEAD OR DEAD\ |
| 515 | PLEASE JUST KILL THIS FUCKING PRICK\ |
| 516 | 5000 CAPS\ |
| 517 | EXTREMELY FUCKING DANGEROUS\ |
| 518 | APPROACH WITH CAUTION |
| 519 | * WhamLine: In "MUSTARD BEEF TURNS RAINBOW SIX TO ASH", the same line serves as one both in and out of universe for Badger. For the latter; it makes him realize why he's not playing as good as he was, and helps him turn his game around. In-universe, well... |
| 520 | -->'''Quesadilla''': I have autism.\ |
| 521 | ''(long pause, before everyone else busts out laughing for several long seconds)''\ |
| 522 | '''Pasta''': [[purple:What.]]\ |
| 523 | '''Quesadilla''': I'm playing Jäger! And I actually do have it!\ |
| 524 | '''Heavenly''': ''[[pink:(cackling wildly throughout)]]''\ |
| 525 | '''Bing''': HE'S JUST LIKE ME! FOR REAL!\ |
| 526 | '''Badger''': This was like, the ''last'' thing I was expecting to hear during a round MVP. [[FlatWhat What?]]\ |
| 527 | '''Mickey''': "I have autism!"\ |
| 528 | '''Quesadilla''': I act--I was--it wasn't even a joke!\ |
| 529 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:How did you catch the one moment where everybody shut the fuck up?!]]\ |
| 530 | '''Quesadilla''': I don't know! ''(everyone else is still laughing)'' Usually everyone else talks over me! Oh, my face is hot...\ |
| 531 | '''Heavenly''': [[pink:''(reading the chat)'' "Bro owns the spectrum!" ''(laughs more)'']] |
| 532 | * WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: In "Destroy All Taxpayer Dollars," Badger states that during his games of ''VideoGame/InsurgencySandstorm'', he treats sniper rifles this way. |
| 533 | -->"You guys know I have a habit of [[NotTheIntendedUse using shotguns as sniper rifles, and sniper rifles as shotguns]]...and the Marksman class is no exception. Doesn't matter if it's for long range, short range, small map, big map, every situation I see is a nail and the M82 I'm holding is the hammer." |
| 534 | * WordSaladTitle: Invoked in his 2023 ''VideoGame/{{Fortnite}}'' episode, ''Hamster Chief Lobsters the Fortbite''. The game is a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover and his Twitch chat spouts random words. |
| 535 | -->'''Badger:''' "I'm on witches and tarot Platform/TikTok and I swear to god I always get hit with them creepy ''WebVideo/MandelaCatalogue'' clips." I don't hav- like… chat… you guys… The comments in this stream are now just like alphabet soup. It's like you saying [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext lobster dolphin mac 'n cheese master chief light goblin super mode happy meal Guatemala]]. Like, what are you saying to me?\ |
| 536 | '''Bees:''' They literally speak in algorithm now. |
| 537 | * WorldHalfFull: Badger's overall MO, as explained in ''Goblin Mode Brain Rot'': |
| 538 | -->''First thing: I'm extremely based--I mean, biased. I'm biased. I only make videos about games I like, and try to remain as positive as possible no matter the situation. Which, in [[WretchedHive a Call of Duty lobby]], makes me virtually one of a kind.'' |
