24[[folder:Multiple Streamers]]
25* "when corrupt" [[labelnote:Explanation]]An extremely common mistake of new Vinesauce viewers (generally those who came because of the highlight videos) is to jump into a chat and ask when Vinny is going to do corruptions. Frowned upon heavily (partially because it's rude to streamers, but also because [[CommonKnowledge Vinny doesn't do corruptions nearly as often as everyone thinks]] for many reasons), it's commonly referenced in the form of this crude phrase, along with the similar newbie-like "where's Vinny/Joel".[[/labelnote]]
26* Mr. Dink [[labelnote:Explanation]]References to Mr. Dink from ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}'' tend to crop up in streams from Vinny and GPM. With GPM it originated from the ''Super Mario Galaxy Repainted'' and he can even do an impression, which he once used during a psychotic rampage in one match of ''The Culling'', while Vinny's references to him stem from when he watched Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} in the early '90s and he often appears in fan art for Vinny's streams.[[/labelnote]]
27* WebVideo/{{Vsauce}} [[labelnote:Explanation]][[SimilarlyNamedWorks For obvious reasons]], Vinesauce tends to get confused for the other popular but unrelated [=YouTube=] channel by unfamiliar outsiders, despite the former technically predating the latter by a few months. As a result it's a common meme to insist in the Youtube comments of Vinesauce videos that the streamer is actually Michael Stevens, and a fair number of Vinny's guest appearances on other podcasts features at least one joke of that nature.[[/labelnote]]
28* Every streamer is Vinny [[labelnote:Explanation]]It's startlingly common for new Vinesauce viewers to confuse Vinny and Joel for one another, seeing as they're the two most popular streamers on the team. This has led numerous other Vinesauce members, both male and female, to joke that they're secretly Vinny.[[/labelnote]]
29** Italian Joel/Swedish Vinny [[labelnote:Explanation]]A more specific version, this time referencing their nationalities as Vinny is Italian-American and Joel is Swedish.[[/labelnote]]
30** Vinny and Joel are the same person [[labelnote:Explanation]]A number of fans took the conflation between Vinny and Joel to its logical conclusion by jokingly claiming that the two are one and the same, especially after a number of moments in Vinny's streams that paralleled past moments from Joel's content and vice-versa. The idea became a popular PlayAlongMeme, depicting one streamer as a character that the other plays and claiming that collaborations between the pair are the result of extensive ActingForTwo.[[/labelnote]]
31* TODD [[labelnote:Explanation]]Originates from Joel's streams of ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion'', where the game crashed quite often and Joel came to later mockingly blame Todd Howard, an executive producer of the game, for most of its faults. Later spread to Vinny's glitchfest streams of ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim'', this is now used on any game Todd worked on, but also can happen when the game is from a company owned by [=ZeniMax=] Media, since Todd is the most known person related to [=ZeniMax=] Media in general.[[/labelnote]]
32* Vore [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase that frequently gets spammed in chat whenever Vinny or Joel play a game where they can get SwallowedWhole, like ''VideoGame/{{Spelunky}}'', or when a character is otherwise depicted being EatenAlive by something else onscreen.[[/labelnote]]
33* Stank/crusty [[labelnote: Explanation]]Often used by the streamers and fans to describe anything that's [[OffModel low quality]], e.g. "that 90s stank" or "look at that crusty JPEG".[[/labelnote]]
34* CBT [[labelnote:Explanation]] Short for [[GroinAttack Cock-and-Ball Torture]], which is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, this acronym originally became popular elsewhere on the internet in the form of a troll tactic where people are tricked to hearing a deadpan and apparently serious reading of the Wikipedia article for Cock-and-Ball Torture simply to {{squick}} them out. Eventually, it spread to Vinny and Joel's chats, initially as a non-sequitur, and later became adopted by both streamers as well as other members of the Vineteam as a go-to term for brutally hard challenges in games. Joel in particular ended up creating a whole character around the meme, the "CBT Wizard," inspired by Whitebeard's role as a randomly-teleporting obstacle in the subway level of Bethesda's ''Literature/WheresWally'' game for the NES.[[/labelnote]]
35* John TitleDrop [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny does this when he's at a loss for a character name, especially for game series that he deems generic, like "John Franchise/{{Halo}}" or "John VideoGame/CallOfDuty". Eventually started spreading to the other Vinesauce streamers. Became something of an AscendedMeme when the Full Sauce's new manager, who remains anonymous, started using "John Fullsauce" as his online handle. Humorously backfires on Vinny [[https://youtu.be/Y1Sx3HqYq_k?t=3830 on one occasion]] while playing ''[[VideoGame/{{Faith}} Faith: Chapter II]]'' when he realizes his own character is already named John. He [[https://youtu.be/CYzZRZl7OoY?t=3064 thinks]] it might have to do with his favorite NYC eaterie literally being called John's.[[/labelnote]]
36* TOOHOO [[labelnote: Explanation]] An intentional misspelling and mispronunciation of ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' done by Joel in several streams. Fans also give secondary misspellings, such as ''2hu'' and ''TUUHUU''. Vinny started using the meme as well after it started to bleed over, particularly when a large number of requests to play certain ''Touhou'' games started coming in. Having a number of badly made fan games showing up in Sunday Stream packs also helped.[[/labelnote]]
37* I CUM [[labelnote:Explanation]]A lyric taken from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWpRihUBhBw an NSFW parody]] of the ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'' "Athletic" theme in which the narrator describes their lifestyle of causing mayhem everywhere they go while constantly masturbating and ejaculating everywhere. The video first came to Chat's attention when Joel started playing it during [=BRBs=], and later bled over into Vinny and Limes' viewerbases, being invoked whenever the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' "Athletic" theme is mentioned or even alluded to.[[/labelnote]]
38* Sorry nothing [[labelnote:Explanation]]How ''Super Boy'', a Korean bootleg of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1'' for the Platform/{{MSX}}, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ0cqpXL9EE decided to cap off the first Bowser boss fight]] in place of Toad's famous "OurPrincessIsInAnotherCastle" speech. Went on to become a popular response to {{Empty Room Psych}}s for not just Vinny but streamers in general. Also doubles as the source of Vinny's much-shorter-lived "grafisk" RunningGag.[[/labelnote]]
39* YOU FUCKING IDIOT [[labelnote:Explanation]] When Joel [[https://youtu.be/oR9o0BT8yk0?si=0SF_CDBsxnhdF2hy&t=4438 reached the end]] of a shitty bootleg of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'' for the Platform/SegaGenesis, Joel was flabbergasted when the game [[AWinnerIsYou abruptly transitioned into a "The End" screen taken from the original game]] with Series/{{Jeopardy}} music playing. He decided to "fix" the ending by changing the text to "YOU FUCKING IDIOT" and pasting Luigi's face over Mario's and Peach's. This is often alluded to by both Joel and Vinny any time Super Mario World's The End screen makes an appearance in any capacity.[[/labelnote]]

43Go [[Memes/VinesauceTomodachiLife here]] for memes from Vinny's ''VideoGame/TomodachiLife'' streams. Memes from his ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing: New Leaf'' streams can be found on [[YMMV/MayorVine the YMMV page for that series]].
44----
45* Virtually everything involving his [[WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfSuperMarioBros3 Mario and Luigi]] impressions. They're plenty quotable by themselves but fans will often go the extra mile to percolate them into fan content.
46** Terminal 7. [[labelnote:Explanation]]First turns up during his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YCfk1FZ7I8 SNES Corruptions]] video, where he acts out a situation where Luigi has Terminal 7 brain cancer and imagines/hallucinates everything in the Mushroom Kingdom, while Mario is his angry brother. Terminal 7 has since then become a popular gag {{Somethingitis}} illness for Vinny and the fanbase to describe sufficiently creepy BodyHorror with. The original rant even inspired an entire [[VideoGame/Terminal7 fangame]] based off of it.[[/labelnote]]
47%%* ''VideoGame/SupraMayroKratt'''s StylisticSuck versions of the ''Mario'' characters (chiefly Joshy) have become memes as well.
48%%* Yoshi and kazoos. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Stems from ''[[VideoGame/YoshisIsland Yoshi's New Island]]'''s soundtrack, which infamously (ab)uses kazoos quite often.[[/labelnote]]
49* From the ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy [[WebVideo/GamesRepainted Repainted]]'' stream, where where Vinny played the first section of ''Super Mario Galaxy'' with edited textures and sounds:
50** Do your best. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The first (real) stage's theme is replaced with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGatO6vMPqw a short, rather irritating children's song about doing one's best]]. It quickly caught on, with many people telling Vinny to do his best (much to his eventual irritation). Darren [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3kwLa5dT5A converted it to MIDI]] after the initial stream and it produced results expected by anyone who saw Joel's Windows 8 Destruction streams.[[/labelnote]]
51** "It's hip to fuck bees!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny mentioned that he enjoyed the music from Honeyhive Galaxy and was relieved to hear GPM say that they couldn't change the music. At first it seemed like GPM was telling the truth, but then the music began to slow down and stop, being replaced by an edited version of "[[Music/HueyLewisAndTheNews Hip to Be Square]]" that uses a sample of [[Creator/PennAndTeller Penn Jillette]] saying "Shut the fuck up" to change various lyrics to include the phrase "fuck bees". This one caught on almost immediately, but Vinny doesn't like it much.[[/labelnote]]
52*** [=#beesex=]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Derived from the above (as well as GPM asking Vinny if he'd fuck a bee); Vinny and GPM encouraging people to attempt making it a Twitter trend was part of what led to it becoming a DiscreditedMeme, at least in Vinny's eyes.[[/labelnote]]
53%%* [[WordSaladHorror WORLDSPREAD BEFORE]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase repeated several times in one corrupted intro of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2''.[[/labelnote]]
54* [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Malo]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny dislikes Malo somewhat due to his [[OlderThanTheyLook toddler-like]] face and TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior. Naturally fans started to exploit this, by inserting Malo into many pieces of fan art, even if they don't relate to the ''Twilight Princess'', much to Vinny's displeasure.[[/labelnote]]
55* Vinny's two red dildos. [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Vinny's band, Red Vox, released their first album in 2016, a friend of Vinny's (Gearomatic) used his PO Box to send him two cherry-colored sex toys. ([[spoiler:[[StealthPun Red cocks]].]]) It quickly caught on due to absurdity. He also claims to relieve stress by playing drums with them, which Fred found hilarious when it came up in one of the latter's streams of ''Miitomo''.[[/labelnote]]
56* Vinny's clown obsession. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny has become associated with clowns due to his strong tendency to joke about them. For example, he joked that the ''VideoGame/ChibiRobo Photo Finder'' curator was saying "I'm going to honk you" at one point (he was actually SpeakingSimlish), he once played ''Grand Theft Auto V'' as a masturbation-obsessed clown named Whacko, and shared a bizarre story about some clowns he saw in 2016. He would eventually share a possible origin story for this, stating that his cousin repeatedly tried to scare him with clowns when they were younger, but he didn't find them scary or funny.[[/labelnote]]
57* Clussy. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A portmanteau of "clown" and "pussy/bussy", means a clown's vagina or anus. It originated from [[https://i.imgur.com/1CZZeZi.jpg an image]] someone PM'ed to Vinny. This resulted in Vinny [[https://clips.twitch.tv/FunnySpoopyAnteaterGOWSkull laughing hysterically at it]] and would periodically reference it in other streams. This later mutated into chat members creating other "-ussy" words whenever Vinny shows an obsession towards something, a trend that eventually got picked up by the broader internet by the start of the 2020s.[[/labelnote]]
58* Vinny's [[InformedDeformity tiny hands]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Originating from a Jen stream (Jen was talking about [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Vinny's hands touching her baby-smooth bottom]], and a chat member heard it as "baby hands"), it quickly became a joke that Vinny's hands were incredibly small, even though they really aren't. Adding to this is [[http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/974584-vinesauce a picture]] of Vinny holding a relatively large guitar that makes his hands look small by comparison.[[/labelnote]]
59* Pepperoni secrets. [[labelnote:Explanation]]While playing one of the [=ROMs=] from his randomized ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'' streams, Vinny encountered a level titled "Pepperoni Secret". Vinny declared the phrase to be the best level name ever, to the point of being far less impressed with every level name from the other randomized [=ROMs=] he played during those streams, and appropriated it as a facetious term for tips and hints. Eventually, it got its own emote for Vinny's channel on [=BetterTTV=] (a plugin that gives Twitch users more features and customization options).[[/labelnote]]
60* Check Under the Crib. [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Vinny was playing Fallout 4, the chat was telling him there was Ammo and other loot under the crib in the protagonist's house, the meme is now used by chat whenever Vinny is looking for anything in any game.[[/labelnote]]
61* Japes. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Originating from his discovery of the word from the ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong64'' level Jungle Japes, Vinny frequently refers to misinformation given out in the chat during streams as "japes", resulting in the creation of a Twitch emoticon of [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames CD-i Link laughing titled "VineJape"]] as well as the word being frequently used in reference to games as well when they implement red herrings and other mechanics designed intentionally to trick you or catch you off guard.[[/labelnote]]
62** "Vinny it was japes, Vinny it was not japes." [[labelnote:Explanation]][[https://youtu.be/buU5i54PzCQ?list=PLlc94szfcNDGBOFNkNjbqydgfeBPjzqgh&t=821 A little jingle]] Vinny came up with for whenever his Twitch chat starts [[ArgumentOfContradictions arguing childishly]] over some form of conflicting information.[[/labelnote]]
63* Speed Luigi. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Originating from his ''Game & Wario'' Miiverse Sketch streams, any time Vinny had extra time to draw something in the Miiverse challenges, he would sketch a crudely drawn Luigi with an insanely long tongue, who would often lick whoever/whatever else is depicted in the drawing. The character has since then become very popular with fans due to his simplicity and silliness.[[/labelnote]]
64%%* dootmario2/Mehrio/"EH STEP RIGHT UP COME ON YOU KNOW". [[labelnote:Explanation]] During his ''VideoGame/PlanetCoaster'' stream, Vinny discovers a large, pixel-art statue of Mario, and begins to pronounce "Mario" as "Mehrio." This leads to Vinny singing an improvised, bastardized version of [[Series/TheSuperMarioBrosSuperShow "Do the Mario"]], which he eventually records as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucqXECc8tmc "dootmario2.mp3"]] so he can play it on a speaker in the park.[[/labelnote]]
65* North left. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During a ''VideoGame/{{Subnautica}}'' stream Vinny was told to go "north left" and it became a go-to example of bad directions. This inspired viewers to continually tell Vinny to go "north left" when telling him to go northwest in a 3D or top-down game.[[/labelnote]]
66* Do not presume. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During Vinny's fifth anniversary stream, he had serious Internet problems. He contacted Verizon, his Internet provider, and was told something along the lines of "Do not presume the problem is with Verizon" (it was). Said in a thick Indian accent, the meme is typically used to joke about Verizon's internet services.[[/labelnote]]
67** Vinerizon/"Is Vinerizon happening again?" [[labelnote:Explanation]][[http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/001/285/389/9ab.jpg A photoshop]] of a stock image on Verizon's internet speed checker that Vinny made during one bout of internet issues, which he tweets to Verizon whenever his connection goes down. He also uses said picture whenever his internet speeds crash in general, [[https://youtu.be/yoycs0Yjnv0?t=1299 as seen here]]. The photoshop was turned into an emote thanks to its ridiculous appearance and ultimately became its own character, often combined with the "do not presume" meme.[[/labelnote]]
68* He Thicc [[labelnote:Explanation]]An odd-looking Mii that appeared in one of Vinny's ''VideoGame/MarioKart 8'' streams as a multiplayer opponent; it spawned several themed Mario ROM hacks, although the quality of said hacks (basically being one-note jokes that changed the sprites and text, and nothing else), and the fact that He Thicc even gained a following ''at all'', led to it becoming a DiscreditedMeme in Vinny's opinion -- requesting that viewers stop sending him He Thicc games unless they had more effort put into them. Viewers did deliver on that promise, however: the most recent He Thicc hacks, based on ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'', have received a relatively better reception (with ''Super He Thicc Worl & Knuckles'' containing custom levels, and even a portion of Ice Cap Zone in reference to his recent ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog3'' stream).[[/labelnote]]
69* MORTIS [[labelnote:Explanation]]The GameOver screen for the indie horror game ''VideoGame/{{Faith}}''. It caught on with the Twitch crowd thanks to the retro text-to-speech and repetition from Vinny dying repeatedly to the game's resident StringyHairedGhostGirl. The word often gets thrown around ''en masse'' whenever Vinny dies in other games, especially if it's in a [[HaveANiceDeath spectacular]] or [[YetAnotherStupidDeath dumb]] fashion.[[/labelnote]]
70* binyot [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Vinny got his copy of ''Film/{{The Room|2003}}'' signed by Tommy Wiseau, Wiseau misheard Vinny's name and spelled it out as "Binny". "Binny" then became its own thing for a while as Vinny slowly corrupted it into "binyot" while saying it in a funny accent. The "yot" portion was inspired by the growing use of the word "thot" at the time, and is sometimes used by Vinny to call out chat being weird about suggestive material ("Chat, are you yot-ing?")[[/labelnote]]
71** binyot why you play babby gaem why you no schüt [[labelnote:Explanation]]During the ''Kirby Planet Robobot'' stream, which was concurrent with his ''Doom'' stream, a chat member calls Vinny out by asking "Vinny, what's with the babu games?". Vinny then proceeded to call the member out back by saying ''Doom'' isn't enough to "sate his bloodlust", culminating in the quote above also eventually bastardized into a funny accent. Since then, the quote comes up to mock the idea of video games being invalidated for having a cute aesthetic and that only ultra-violent games can apply.[[/labelnote]]
72** Intentionally butchering Vinny's name. [[labelnote:Explanation]] A further mutation of the Binyot meme, where chat members will completely butcher his name into things that vaguely sound like Vinny or Binyot, or things that build off of distortions of other distortions as an extended game of telephone. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LhE9sVjWLg Examples]] include Bean Yacht, Rowboat, and ''Throat Punch''.[[/labelnote]]
73* ¿Qué Pasa Neng? [[labelnote:Explanation]] During one stream, Vinny decided to show off ''¿Qué Pasa Neng? El Videojuego'', a [=PlayStation 2=] game from Spain centering around the eponymous character created by Spanish comedian Edu Soto as a parody of Spain's electronic music scene in the 1990's. The incredibly bizarre nature of both the game and Neng himself quickly caught on with fans, leading to a fanart-based meme revolving around various Vinesauce-related characters mimicking the pose on the game's [[https://veryverygaming.files.wordpress.com/2016/06/que-pasa-neng-the-videogame-e1464807125299.jpg boxart.]][[/labelnote]]
74* Meat [[labelnote:Explanation]][[https://i.imgur.com/7FnUgmF.jpg An odd picture of a worm]], [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Vinesauce/comments/8i7b1u/i_found_whistling_meats/ eventually]] [[https://youtu.be/9hljVY48mGc?t=1179 discovered]] to be a product of Yagher Effects, and originally used in a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UFNCdhyjbA British MSN ad]]. Examples of their work show up in ''Franchise/ChildsPlay'' and ''Series/TalesFromTheCrypt'', among others. Vinny found it with the caption "My meat watching me open incognito for the 4th time today", and he proceeded to joke about it being his "facecam". Of course, with Vinny's fanbase being as weird as he is, someone [[https://youtu.be/bO8HpsURrsM?t=296 actually took him up on the "facecam" thing]], complete with MouthFlaps whenever Vinny talks. Following the end of his ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'' stream, Meat's catchphrase also became "Yeow!" after the screams of the [[ThatOneBoss Orphan of Kos]]. The regular Vinesauce [=YouTube=] channel has a Meat highlights-slash-"history lesson" video [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bO8HpsURrsM here]].[[/labelnote]]
75* WebAnimation/MarioPissing [[labelnote:Explanation]]A short StylisticSuck [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYqMeT5aPRU "animation"]] with ''very'' [[WhatTheHellIsThatAccent ridiculous voice acting]] -- wherein a Goomba complains that Mario [[DeathSeeker isn't jumping on him like he's "supposed" to]], since he's too busy [[PottyEmergency peeing]]. Vinny made a joke about the video in his ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiSuperstarSaga'' stream after encountering a [[https://youtu.be/Wpcy5rNB-bc?t=1517 vat of yellow-ish looking broth in Joke's End,]] but it didn't truly take off as a meme until "Best of Trash" -- where Vinny played a game that was essentially an RPG Maker recreation of the same animation. Some of the lines from said video (including "Time to take a '''''PISS.'''''" and "What the hell are you ''doooooing?''") have appeared on other streams (especially if ToiletHumor comes up). This was followed up by ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RX45XuT6vss Mario Pissing Arcade GP DX]]'' (which is similar to the aforementioned RPG Maker game, except replacing the Goomba with Creator/TommyWiseau, and using Vinny's reading of Mario's lines from his playthrough of the previous game as voice acting), and ''[[https://www.twitch.tv/vinesauce/clip/WealthyAggressiveSrirachaChefFrank Merio Takes a Piss: The Game]]'', which has just as much Stylistic Suck as the original video. The [=vinePiss=] emote is often spammed in chat whenever toilet humor is involved, even if Mario Pissing itself is not referenced.[[/labelnote]]
76* Genius Kojumbo [[labelnote:Explanation]]An affectionate remark on the inherently silly things Creator/HideoKojima puts in his games that turn out to be {{Foreshadowing}} or [[ChekhovsGag Chekhov's Gags]]. Originates from a bizarre Android bootleg of ''VideoGame/DeathStranding'' called ''Deadly Standing'', self-described on the Play Store as being made by "genius Kojumbo".[[/labelnote]]
77* Squeezing hogs. [[labelnote:Explanation]]After the CrotchGrabSexCheck in Metal Gear Solid 2, Vinny kept referring to the action as "squeezing my hog", and it's bled into other streams. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XwavmkVbXY&t=593 Even David Hayter got in on the fun.]][[/labelnote]]
78* Vinny dying. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny's [[https://youtu.be/9zOZvBSf7sk?t=88 reaction]] to the ''VideoGame/MetalGearSurvive'' trailer still occasionally sees use as a reaction GIF. Hell, Vinny used it himself [[https://youtu.be/tgHcH2DTEZY?t=5413 one time]] as a GagCensor.[[/labelnote]]
79* Sad Vinny [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny is known for usually looking [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/jerma-lore/images/1/1b/Binyot.png incredibly sad or despairing]] whenever he appears on camera. Some of it is deliberately played up, but fans have noticed that even images where he ''is'' smiling [[TheUnsmile tend to still look sad]]. As a result he's gained a memetic reputation as TheEeyore, which sometimes combines with the above "Vinny Dying" meme for memes about him undergoing DeathByDespair.[[/labelnote]]
80* Vinny will never stream ''VideoGame/Mother3''. [[labelnote:Explanation]] ''MOTHER 3'' has been the subject of many, many requests from fans, especially after Vinny enjoyed the [[VideoGame/EarthBound1994 previous game]]. Vinny has long teased his fans on when he'll stream the game, often baiting them by saying he won't, or will... at a much later date. He's gone on to say that he'll stream the game before the end of 2018... [[ExactWords after Christmas]]. This is usually accompanied by the [[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/crab-rave Crab Rave Meme]]. He made good on his promise by streaming ''MOTHER 3'' on December 28.[[/labelnote]]
81* "Kill jestah." [[labelnote:Explanation]]A snippet from an "Adventure Call" segment of ''Series/LimmysShow'', where a caller's first action is to kill off an annoying jester character. It becomes a rallying cry of the chat whenever Vinny meets a sinister/creepy jester character in a game, such as [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Cicero]] and [[VideoGame/SuperPaperMario Dimentio]].[[/labelnote]]
82* Vinny's dog quota [[labelnote:Explanation]]As of the ''VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption2'' streams, Vinny has had '''abysmal''' luck with dogs in video games, often injuring or killing them by mistake. This string of bad luck and its contrast with Vinny's love of dogs spawned jokes about him keeping a KillTally of the number of dogs he kills in video games, and needing to kill at least one in-game dog per stream. [[https://youtu.be/Km4iFsPXM8s?t=449 Vinny has since mentioned that he really doesn't like the meme.]][[/labelnote]]
83* Vinny's "RP Guy" voice. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A [[WhatTheHellIsThatAccent vaguely Slavic]] accent originally used to satirize online roleplayers, based on a rather infamous ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAYXlLCb1qo video]] from 2011, which has become something of a FountainOfMemes due to Vinny procuring an unusually high amount of catchphrases that utilize the voice, often revolving around {{inherently funny word}}s and bastardizations of his own name.[[/labelnote]]
84** "plae [=DMC2=] is the beast"/"but booty only twenty minutes" [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Vinny played ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry5'' at launch and had to get a refresher, he was very quick to catch on to the in-game timeline heavily downplaying ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry2'' (which, thanks to some extreme TroubledProduction, is considered the weakest game in the series by far and one of the worst character action games ever made) and continued to make fun of the game later on. Fans like to make joke comments demanding that Vinny play the game, generally based on a [[https://www.twitch.tv/vinesauce/clip/SneakySmoggyEggnogEleGiggle quote]] that Vinny typed and read in the RP Guy voice during his final stream of ''Devil May Cry 5''. The phrase [=DMC2=] and "Booty," a corruption of Vinny's name from the aforementioned quote, would later become popular with Vinny, either as non-sequiturs or as jabs at overly-demanding viewers. It became a DiscreditedMeme in its original form when he really played ninety minutes of ''Devil May Cry 2'' after it was reached as a charity incentive, but has since been expanded to mock more demanding requests and justifications from chat, most prominently one in which people hounded him about his refusal to stream ''VideoGame/Persona5'' on account of the game's length, claiming that [[BlatantLies it could be beaten in just 20 minutes within the normal course of play.]][[/labelnote]]
85* SPEEN [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase Vinny tends to shout whenever he sees anything spinning in a game, using a voice similar to-- but according to WordOfGod, not synonymous with-- the RP Guy voice. Vinny's self-professed fondness for the bit and his tendency to vary it up almost every time he does it has made it particularly popular in fan remixes and other edits.[[/labelnote]]
86* [[VideoGame/CrisisCore Me? Gongaga.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]][[https://youtu.be/akGp-Qqo-cI An older video]] from before Vinny started streaming, it's a YouTubePoop parodying a scene in ''Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core'', when Zack introduces himself to Cloud. The meme eventually gained traction outside of the Vinesauce community, one of the few Vinesauce memes to do so.[[/labelnote]]
87* DEDICATION [[labelnote:Explanation]]During a particularly difficult level of ''Marble It Up'', Vinny eventually lost his patience after one too many deaths and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yEpJDGnrA8&t=5370s let out a horrible and unusually visceral scream of frustration]] right after saying "Want to talk about some-- some dedication?". The "Dedication" scream eventually became a sort of gold standard for subsequent rage screams, and even became an AscendedMeme in ''Marble It Up'' when the developers added a secret Vinesauce marble skin that's unlocked using the passcode "DEDICATION" in all-caps.[[/labelnote]]
88* Depowering/Low-Power Arnold [[labelnote:Explanation]]A voice Vinny came up with to amuse himself during particularly tedious segments in ''VideoGame/SuperPaperMario'', consisting of a stock Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger impression combined with a deep, growling voice, with said impression consisting solely of [[Film/JingleAllTheWay Howard Langston]] telling his son Jamie that he is "losing power" and demanding to be fed cookies to recharge, although later adding a further impression of Arnold talking about [[SmokingIsCool "stogies"]] (sourced from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4uq-2dBDbU an interview excerpt]] in which the real-life Schwarzenegger brags about being able to smoke cigars unrestricted). The voice quickly caught on with audiences due to how absurd it was, and Vinny himself enjoyed it enough to continue using it in later streams. Vinny later stated that part of the appeal of the voice to him is seeing just how deep he can go with it, attempting to perform the voice in a lower pitch each time he brings it out.[[/labelnote]]
89* Robertsons [[labelnote:Explanation]]An UnusualEuphemism for boobs.[[/labelnote]]
90* Vinny's SlimeGirl fetish [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny has an odd history with slime girls, having occasionally referenced them during past streams. However, he became to be more thoroughly associated with them after a ''VideoGame/BlackMesa'' stream in which he detailed a conversation he had with a friend during a party, in which the friend describing ''Literature/ThatTimeIGotReincarnatedAsASlime'' led to Vinny bringing up slime girls with no prior provocation-- at which point the whole room suddenly and shiftily quieted down. Since then, fans have joked about Vinny having a fetish for slime girls, with them occasionally being referenced in memes and fanart.[[/labelnote]]
91** Like a champ [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase stemming from a moment during the 2019 New Year's Eve stream, in which a round of ''VideoGame/AIDungeon2'' ended in [[Film/CreatingRemLezar Rem Lezar]] creating a slime girl who immediately starts sucking off everyone in the room, [[SexStartsStoryStops bringing the plot to an abrupt halt]]. The sheer absurdity and sudden pornographic nature of the event (depicted entirely in text) quickly caught on with fans, with the phrase "like a champ" (deriving from a description of the slime girl's oral sex skills) becoming widely used in connection with slime girls and slime characters in general. The incident gained renewed notoreity after a particularly risqué fan animation resulted in a three-day ban for Vinny in January 2023.[[/labelnote]]
92* Maclanky/maclunkey [[labelnote:Explanation]] During a stream of ''VideoGame/AIDungeon2'', the game bugged out and incessantly repeated "You look at the maclanky and think about how delicious it would be. You think about how delicious it would be if you ate it raw. You think about how delicious it would be if you ate it cooked" (the word "maclanky" is an AI-mangled version of "maclunkey", which comes from [[Memes/ANewHope a notorious edit]] to the Greedo scene in the Disney+ cut of ''Film/ANewHope'') no matter what Vinny tried, causing him to devolve into complete hysterics. Fan art and general memeage followed, boosted by "maclunkey" and "maclanky" being {{inherently funny word}}s, with chat quoting it in repetitive sections of games.[[/labelnote]]
93* E [[labelnote:Explanation]]From Vinny's ''VideoGame/TrialsOfMana'' streams, where Angela lets out a high-pitched squeak whenever she jumps. The noise was already a meme among fans of the game for how out-of-place it sounds (which can lead to {{narm}} during more plot-important fights), but with Vinny it particularly gained traction.[[/labelnote]]
94* "Kinda what?" [[labelnote:Explanation]]During ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'', the stream cut off just as Barret's daughter Marlene is in the middle of commenting on another character. The disconnect happens immediately after Barret asks her in response, "kinda what?" As a result, the response remained unheard until several minutes later, when Vinny looked up the rest of the dialogue in a video, leading to an amusingly underwhelming conclusion. This now pops up whenever a similar scenario happens with a character trailing off mid-sentence, usually with a much more urgent tone from Vinny.[[/labelnote]]
95* SHOT/vineShot [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny has a tendency to reference or quote his favorite film ''Film/BladeRunner'', and viewers soon made a DrinkingGame of it. The corresponding [[https://betterttv.com/emotes/603c5cc07c74605395f363f1 emote]], of course, features the iconic whiskey glass from the film. Occasionally also applied to his other interests, like ''Franchise/StarWars'' and ''Franchise/StarTrek''.[[/labelnote]]
96* Smooth/Dry/4 AM Brain [[labelnote:Explanation]]A [[SelfDeprecation self-deprecating]] group of jokes referencing the roles that [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrification brain gyri/"wrinkles"]] and cerebrospinal fluid play in maintaining human cognitive ability, and deriving from Vinny's tendency to become less and less mentally sharp as the night drags on, with 4 AM EST typically being when he's at his dullest. References to low-quality brain texture and the apparent brain-draining powers of 4 AM have since become a mainstay of fandom in-jokes and fanart.[[/labelnote]]
97** Yam Brain/Yam/Yamming [[labelnote:Explanation]]An accidental misreading of the phrase "4 AM" in a piece of fanart, thanks to the 4 being written in a style similar to a Y. This misreading meshed well with the above self-deprecating jokes about Vinny's slipping mental acuity, causing "yam brain" to become a synonym for "4 AM Brain" among Vinny's viewerbase. "Yam" itself later morphed into a verb and a standalone noun with identical connotations.[[/labelnote]]
98* Estoy loopin [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase playing off of [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/340/803/742.png a variant]] of the old [[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/im-poopin-cat "I'm poopin"]] meme, in which the cat in the base photoset is photoshopped to wear a sombrero with the captions reading "estoy poopin." Vinny first caught wind of the "estoy poopin" meme via a piece of ''VideoGame/Mother3'' [[https://booru.vineshroom.net/post/view/72145 fanart]] on the Vinebooru based on it, and over a year later the "estoy loopin" variant started seeing use by both Vinny and Chat in response to Vinny's stream crashing or dropping frames, which typically results in the last 10-30 seconds of footage looping repeatedly before the channel is forced offline.[[/labelnote]]
99* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcjqJY8NNSo C O C K INJURED]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]One scene in Vinny's ''VideoGame/DragonQuestXI'' streams involves a number of male sailors pretending to be injured in the hopes of being felt up by the WhiteMage Serena. A chat member yelled this phrase out during said scene, and its implications as well as the phrase being in [[CapsLock all-caps]] with spaces made it immediately stand out to Vinny. Since then, Vinny and chat will use "COCK INJURED" during scenes involving a GroinAttack, as well as pun variants (e.g., "STOCK INJURED" when KO-ing in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'').[[/labelnote]]
100* "These shrimp fresh?" [[labelnote:Explanation]] While [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAIi2A3Jww4 messing around]] in ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'', one of the many glitches Vinny encountered was a seafood vendor that remained [[SuperStoicShopkeeper entirely unfazed by whatever he did to her]]. All the while, the [[WelcomeToCorneria default dialogue with her continuously repeated]] as he dumped multiple dead bodies around (or on) her. The Shrimp Lady developed into a definitive point of focus for the following ''Cyberpunk 2077'' streams, alongside echoes of the dialogue by Vinny, his friends, and chat, ultimately bleeding into the wider ''Cyberpunk'' playerbase as well.[[/labelnote]]
101* P A I N/goblinPls [[labelnote:Explanation]]During the ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'' streams, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfDxpP2iGvU "Pain"]] by Le Destroy and The Red Glare quickly caught the attention of Vinny and chat for its blunt explicitness and repetitive hook, which consisted of "pain" and "we like the pain" chanted over and over. The song became inextricably linked with the [[https://betterttv.com/emotes/5fbb15dc68e2d56f0f39d166 goblinPls]] emote (itself stemming from the animation [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLLHu8qtxjg "The Goblin Dance"]]), which would flood the chat any time the song is heard or so much as alluded to. A case of spontaneous goblining can be witnessed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGECvmvHQlA here]].[[/labelnote]]
102* [[InherentlyFunnyWords CAPUSSI]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Comes from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZBtoBL02ww a video]] made by the titular Capussi, where their intro is Vinny saying their name, the voice clip itself coming from a months-old art segment that Vinny forgot about. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elZ2hHlSWzE When Vinny watched the video]] during that night's art segment, the sheer abruptness of how quickly the intro segues into the actual video, coupled with Vinny being more tired than usual that night, led him to devolve into delirious laughter, which only got stronger with the outro being the same voice clip slowed down and overlapped with a reverberating fart sound effect. This left Vinny in such stitches that he had to outright cancel the art segment, and from that point forward CAPUSSI has become a running gag among both Vinny and his viewerbase.[[/labelnote]]
103* Doodle Dip [[labelnote:Explanation]]From Vinny's stream of the exceedingly weird "create your own cartoon" game ''VideoGame/SpaceKids'', in which the character Zeedle would utter this SpeakingSimlish nonsense phrase as a [[GoshDangItToHeck G-rated swear.]] The phrase quickly caught on with chat and even ended up on Vinny's soundboard. It often crops up when other games feature creatures that resemble the characters from ''Space Kids'', and eventually became an emote for Vinny's channel; Zeedle himself also became a popular character to incorporate in fanart and fangames, [[IAmNotShazam often misnamed "Doodle Dip"]] as a result of the phrase's popularity.[[/labelnote]]
104* Vinny's Passive Proc'd [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny has a bizarre tendency to accidentally come across glitches without any intentional effort on his part, with both he and his fans jokingly describing it as a passive ability that he has. Consequently, saying that "[Vinny's] passive proc'd," which he sometimes says in response to such glitches, is common in fanart and other fan content.[[/labelnote]]
105* [[CelebrityResemblance Every white man with brown hair and a beard is Vinny]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vinny would receive many comments mentioning his purported resemblance to various other real and fictional men with such features. While many of these early comments were unironic, given what a broad category it is, it's been repeated enough times and with some ridiculous-enough comparisons to have taken off in the ironic sense, with fans treating Vinny as the ultimate embodiment of the RidiculouslyAverageGuy trope in real life. The tendency extends to [[ItKindOfLooksLikeAFace inanimate objects]], including [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRMpeDuQmhM&t=10286s flames in a burning house]]. These cases of mass pareidolia have given rise to the term Vinny Derangement Syndrome (VDS).[[/labelnote]]
106* HOOT WIRELESS [[labelnote:Explanation]]A commercial for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DMt3OMwArU&ab_channel=FrankieFlight a Georgia cell phone store]], with the store's name repeated multiple times throughout the ad at random times. WebVideo/{{Chadtronic}} had already given the ad some notoriety when it appeared in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM6cHUUZnBw&ab_channel=Chadtronic the 21st installment of his Cursed Commercials series]], but after the commercial popped up in Vinny's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2hzRtEGsZk&t=4038s&ab_channel=Vinesauce%3ATheFullSauce Commercial Chaos video]], the video's popularity skyrocketed even further, resulting in a number of fan remixes. Vinny himself added the "Hoot Wireless" soundbite to his soundboard, and the official Vinesauce Discord server themed their AprilFoolsDay celebration that year around a fictional takeover by Hoot Wireless.[[/labelnote]]
107* Crypto Luigi [[labelnote:Explanation]]During one Commercial Chaos segment, Vinny watched an advertisement for the Metaverse-based game ''Atlas Earth'' in which a guy with a large mustache performs a {{trap|Music}} song about making real-world money from buying virtual plots of land. While the ad had already been a minor meme outside of Vinesauce before then, Vinny's fondness for its SoBadItsGood nature led to him repeatedly using it for jokes on-stream. In turn, this resulted in further jokes and fan content from his viewer base, both riffing on the ad's contents and playing up the singer's uncanny resemblance to Luigi. However, much like He Thicc, it became a DiscreditedMeme, but for different reasons, as it was being used to promote a cryptocurrency scam.[[/labelnote]]
108* LUCASSSS / Hey there champ![[labelnote:Explanation]]During the [[https://youtu.be/OexEJFXnpNU?t=4450 first Mario.exe pack stream]], one of the games Vinny played was ''VideoGame/MarioEightyFive''. The game's main chase sequence quickly proved to be extremely difficult for a number of reasons (MX's [[{{Acrofatic}} speed]] and [[HitboxDissonance wonky hitbox]], the game [[SomeDexterityRequired lacking controller support]], the many [[SensoryAbuse loud noises]] being distracting, etc.), leading to Vinny undergoing a SanitySlippage. MX's dialogue prior to the chase begins with both of these lines. Since then they're both used whenever the topic of {{Creepypasta}} games comes up, or when Vinny encounters a [[ThatOneLevel very difficult part of a game]].[[/labelnote]]
109* "[[DramaticIrony Just came back, how's my favorite X doing?]]"[[labelnote:Explanation]]Originating from Vinny's ''VideoGame/{{Rimworld}}'' streams, variants of this line are a common comment from the chat whenever a death occurs, usually referring to a colonist, pet, or any other character who died recently.[[/labelnote]]
110* Diaper Chief [[labelnote:Explanation]]During the first ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid Twin Snakes]]'' stream, Vinny laughs after Mei instructs Snake to save the DARPA Chief, Donald Anderson, and jokes about him being the Diaper Chief. Despite calling it a bad joke in the third ''Twin Snakes'' stream, Vinny would regularly bring up the Diaper Chief, even around other streamers, and comments about Snake being the Diaper Chief.[[/labelnote]]
111* "Luigi go take a shit, now!"
112[[/folder]]
113
114[[folder:Joel]]
115* [=BonziBUDDY=]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A very, ''very'' infamous spyware program masquerading as a desktop assistant with a purple gorilla as a mascot. His escapades in the Windows XP destruction stream gave him a boost in popularity (eventually reaching DiscreditedMeme status ''big time'').[[/labelnote]]
116* Joel's dad. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Joel has a tendency to reference his father, who is reportedly an eccentric man who sounds like [[Franchise/TheMuppets Kermit the Frog]]. He would later become popular with Joel's fans.[[/labelnote]]
117** Joel downloading boobs [[labelnote:Explanation]]One of Joel's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiVtoO65BRY most well-known stories]] surrounding his father details an incident from Joel's childhood when he downloaded a desktop stripper program, only to discover that not only did it run far worse than it did in the advertisement (with Joel comparing it to an epileptic seizure), but he also didn't know how to get it off of the computer, leading him to have to ask his dad for help, much to the latter's overwhelming disappointment. As a result of the incident, Joel's dad would later burst into Joel's room unannounced angrily asking if he "download[ed] boobs again." The passionate delivery Joel gives to his dad's angered question at the end of the story led to it catching on among fans.[[/labelnote]]
118* Grand Dad[[labelnote:Explanation]]From the 2014 Mario bootlegs stream. Joel once played a bootleg game called ''Super Mario 7'' (which was referred to as ''[[InconsistentDub 7 Grand Dad]]'' by the title screen), which was a ROM hack of the game ''VideoGame/TheFlintstonesTheRescueOfDinoAndHoppy'' that featured an OffModel Mario sprite in the title screen and a player character who has Mario's head on Fred Flintstone's body. His reaction was entertaining enough, especially when the theme song kicked in, but then a [=YouTube=] channel called Music/SiIvaGunner (impersonating [=GilvaSunner=], who uploads many video game [=OSTs=]) started [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PkgoGtT7wY remixing real video game OSTs]] to add the infamous tune. ROM-hacking viewers would later send Joel ROM hacks featuring Grand Dad, [[AdaptationalVillainy generally portraying him as a villain]]. Grand Dad has since become a DiscreditedMeme for the most part for Joel as a result of its omnipresence, especially after it took off among the [=SiIvaGunner=] fanbase, though he does more affectionately nod back to it from time to time. The meme is sometimes rendered as "GRAYUND DAYUD" due to Joel's accent.[[/labelnote]]
119* MIDI-fying songs. [[labelnote:Explanation]]From his Windows 8 Destruction stream; he attempted to put an [=MP3=] of [[Wrestling/JohnCena "The Time Is Now"]] into a website that would convert it to MIDI... but then discovers the end result is a mess of piano notes that vaguely resembles the actual song at best. It quickly became trendy to put other songs through the site (with varying results), to the point where it has [[https://www.reddit.com/r/ModernMIDIMusic its own subreddit]]. On Vinesauce itself, Darren later did this with the "Do Your Best" song from Vinny's ''Super Mario Galaxy Repainted'' stream.[[/labelnote]]
120%%* YOU FUCKING IDIOT [[labelnote:Explanation]]After completing a bootleg ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'' port for the Sega Genesis, Joel copied Luigi's face over Mario and Peach and then proceeded to write "YOU FUCKING IDIOT" over the usual "thank you", using the ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto'' logo's font to do so.[[/labelnote]]
121* Who's been drawing DICKS!? [[labelnote:Explanation]]Taken from [[https://youtu.be/W9DST-6jIBU?t=372 a story]] during Joels' Windows XP Destruction stream where he describes a classmate who constantly opened MS Paint on the school computers to draw penises, to the irritation of the teacher. Joel's delivery of the teacher's reaction, the above line, quickly caught on due to the goofy voice he used, and since then the phrase has commonly been invoked by fans and in fan content for the sake of absurdity; its use in a Music/SiIvaGunner [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymbw2R3uIqc parody]] of the ''VideoGame/MarioPaint'' track "Creative Exercise" led fans to especially invoke the phrase whenever that game comes up.[[/labelnote]]
122* DUANE! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Comes from the DirectToVideo film ''Barbie Dance Club'', where a kid named Duane does a SoBadItsGood [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGvdVXxFkY4 dance]] while his name is shouted. While popular for a long time beforehand, Joel gave it a boost in relevance, with him seeing Duane as a MemeticBadass and using a channel emote slot for him. It got especially popular around the time of Joel's ''VideoGame/{{MUGEN}}'' streams, where Duane is a LethalJokeCharacter who takes on [[VideoGame/EarthBound1994 Giygas]] alone and ''wins'', and he also chose the name "DUANE" for his starter Pokémon in ''VideoGame/PokemonVietnameseCrystal''.[[/labelnote]]
123* Pussy destroyer. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase Joel used to describe Peter Norton, as in "Norton Antivirus", whose image showed up during an attempted Mac Destruction stream (which was compiled with his ''Windows 7 Destruction'' highlights). It has since been almost universally attached to Duane (see above) despite not originally referring to him, mostly due to Joel's attempts to get a Norton emote made being denied due to Norton being a person who hasn't consented to such a usage of his image.[[/labelnote]]
124* Expand dong. [[labelnote:Explanation]]An already pretty popular meme was to put the words "expand dong" over Donkey Kong's face, using text spliced from the cover of ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong64'''s box. However, on Vinesauce it's associated with [=BonziBUDDY=], as the first time he downloaded the program, it asked for Joel's name and he responded by entering the words "Expand Dong" into the fields. Joel has referenced this meme quite a few times throughout the stream since then.[[/labelnote]]
125* Dr.Pepper. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Chat-picked name for the main character of VideoGame/LifeAndDeath (surgery sim), which [[https://youtu.be/s4qFlhMBWbs?t=2m9s amused]] Joel enough to be referenced and used in many later streams.[[/labelnote]]
126* Pringles. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Pringles are apparently Joel's TrademarkFavoriteFood, because he has referenced them multiple times, such as when he made a failed attempt to replace Mario's face in ''VideoGame/DrMario'' with the Pringles man's, as well as when he ''accidentally'' drew the Pringles man in ''VideoGame/MarioPaint'' when attempting to draw a stereotypical old-timey villain. Fan artists have referenced this (such as [[https://booru.vineshroom.net/post/view/30391 this piece]], which references both Dr. Pringles and Dr. Pepper) and one viewer sent him a ROM hack of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1'' that replaced Mario with Dr. Pringles.[[/labelnote]]
127* The Duwang Dub [[labelnote:Explanation]]A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6S2Tj-3nmw two-part]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znP7cOuq4yY reading]] of various out-of-context panels from [[SoBadItsGood a notoriously poor-quality scanslation]] of ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable''. Joel's over-the-top delivery combined with the silly stock background music and BlindIdiotTranslation led it to catch on almost instantaneously as a subject for remixes and edits, and nowadays it's become popular enough for many people to genuinely be unaware that the original videos were Joel's creation, something Joel himself repeatedly remarked about.[[/labelnote]]
128%%* Shoutout to Simpleflips. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During his Wheelchair Mario 64 stream, a lot of the dialogue and text in the game was replaced with a shoutout to a Mario 64 speedrunner known as Simpleflips.[[/labelnote]]
129* HET / Felix the НЕТ [[labelnote:Explanation]]Comes from a Russian bootleg of VideoGame/FelixTheCat on the Sega Genesis, specifically on the continue screen (нет means "no" in Russian, pronounced "nyet", but Joel pronounces it "KHHHH-et"). Choosing нет led to an [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath extremely gruesome]] [[https://youtu.be/zchFyYv3oPk?t=29m19s Game Over screen]]. Also received a bump from Music/SiIvaGunner thanks to an infamous incident, in which clicking an annotation with this label led to a ShockSite.[[/labelnote]]
130* "This is it, stranger!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]From his ''VideoGame/MadDogMccree'' video, during Buckskin Bonnie's segment of the game Joel dies ''seventeen times'' during the shootout with [=McCree=] after easily icing him during his first attempt in Shooting Beaver's scenario, and every time he would continue [=McCree=] would repeat his speech ("This is it, stranger! Go ahead. You're already a dead man!"). It caught on very quickly among fans.[[/labelnote]]
131%%* Protegent Antivirus. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During Joel's Windows Vista destruction stream, Joel discovers that Protegent Antivirus, an Indian anti-virus program, uses a mascot that is a [[UsefulNotes/{{Plagiarism}} plagiarized]] {{Expy}} of Wyatt from ''WesternAnimation/SuperWhy'' in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uM72zbTXHSI their commercials]]. What makes it more bizarre is that the mascot [[VocalDissonance has an extremely deep voice]]. The mascot has become very popular with fans.[[/labelnote]]
132%%** I lost my DATA. [[labelnote:Explanation:]] One of the lines is said in the adverts. Commonly spelt as "I lost my DEETA."[[/labelnote]]
133%%* AEUHHH? [[labelnote:Explanation]]A grunt in the TitleThemeTune of ''Series/HomeImprovement''; a Creator/TimAllen-themed virus in the Windows Vista destruction stream replaced numerous text strings with this word.[[/labelnote]]
134* [[VideoGame/DukeNukem Dooki Nooki]] [[labelnote: Explanation]]During one Sega Genesis Madness stream, Joel came across a Brazilian Genesis port of ''VideoGame/DukeNukem3D'', eventually leading him to mess around with Duke Nukem-related phrases in Google Translate. At one point, he wrote "my name is Duke Nukem" in the input box while it was set to Portuguese, leading to the text-to-speech function to read it as "my name is Dookey Nookey" (due to it attempting to pronounce Duke's name as if it were actual Portuguese); the result quickly caught on with fans, to the point where "Dooki Nooki" has become the de-facto nickname for Duke on Joel's streams and [[AscendedMeme even got a shout-out from Jon St. John himself]] at the end of Joel's "Best of 2017" video![[/labelnote]]
135* Leif Erikson Day [[labelnote: Explanation]] Initially as Holiday in USA and as a moment from ''[[WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants SpongeBob SquarePants TV Show]]'' episode called [[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS2E3BigPinkLoserBubbleBuddy Bubble Buddy]]. As a Vinesauce meme, it was not used until one of Joel chat room members did a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJEYzwYrHJ8 video]] during the "[[Memes/SpongeBobSquarePants portrayed by Sponge Bob]]" craze, which the Leif Erikson Day moment was a accurate representation of Joel. Joel liked the video and since them, both the Holiday and '''''HINGA DINGA DURGEN''''' became jokes among the fans whenever Joel talks about Scandinavia or Norse people in general, despite Leif Erikson being born in Norway, and Joel in Sweden. Sometimes, Patrick's version of the gag '''''(YAGER HINGER DINGER)''''' is actually used. [[/labelnote]]
136* Stay Hydrated / Hydrate [[labelnote: Explanation]] A reference to [[WaterIsBlue Stay_Hydrated_Bot]], an automatically-operated Twitch account that appears in various streamers' chats and posts hourly reminders to drink a certain amount of water in order to remain sufficiently hydrated. As a result of its constant presence, members of Joel's chat started coming up with nicknames such as "Water Bot / [[Film/TheWaterboy Boy]]" and "Hydrobot". The chat's attachment to Stay_Hydrated_Bot became so great that one user created a [=YouTube=] account based around the bot, sporting Aqua from ''Literature/{{Konosuba}}'' as their PFP (thanks to her being a [[MakingASplash water goddess]] InUniverse), simply to post similar reminders in the comments to Joel's videos on both his main channel and Vargskelethor Uncut.[[/labelnote]]
137* Vampire Abraham Lincoln. [[labelnote: Explanation]]In Joel's stream of ''VideoGame/TheTownWithNoName'' whenever an antagonist died, the undertaker, a gap-toothed and wall-eyed man dressed in all black, would slide across the screen while a quick rendition of the funeral march played. Given the wild west setting of the game, the character was seen a lot and his [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment completely unexplained presence]] (in a game already known for its unintentionally surreal tone) made him endlessly hilarious to both the chat and Joel himself.+ His face ended up becoming a chat emote and Joel even has a transparent gif of him sliding across the screen at the ready to use whenever someone dies or something unfortunate happens.[[/labelnote]]
138* [[VideoGame/{{Doom}} Arch-viles]]. [[labelnote: Explanation]]Throughout the Doom Mapping Contest, Joel makes it clear that he ''despises'' fighting against [[DemonicSpiders Arch-viles]], often freaking out or threatening to take off nonexistant points whenever he encountered one. [[TrollingCreator As you can probably imagine]], when the 2nd Mapping Contest happened, Arch-viles became ''much'' more common in the [=WADs=] submitted, much to Joel's lack of surprise.[[/labelnote]]
139* "Joel gets meaner every day." [[labelnote: Explanation]] During his 2018 ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast Link to the Past]]'' stream, Joel was being chastized for supposedly not following chat's advice when it came to navigating the cave leading to Death Mountain. Joel's reaction prompted a peculiar response from one of the chat members, "Joel, you get meaner every day," which he then read out loud and spent the next few minutes stating his [[ConfusedQuestionMark overwhelming confusion]] over. The line and variations of the gag, such as "Joel gets ''sleepier'' every day," now get frequent use at the slightest and most unusual provocation.[[/labelnote]]
140* [[UsefulNotes/FurryFandom OwO]] [[labelnote:Explanation]] When the streamer says "oh, what's this?", or when some character design or dialogue in a game is furry bait.[[/labelnote]]
141* Mario Screaming [[labelnote:Explanation]] A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32Hp1LW08Yc video]] by [=YouTube=] user [=MetalKingBoo=] that features... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Mario screaming]] (specifically one of the burn damage voice clips from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine'' ran through a harmonizer). Joel first used it on his second stream of the ''Series/WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire'' PC game, then started applying it to BRB screens as a sound gag accompanying the background music, and eventually made it a running gag in other situations (usually {{Epic Fail}}s). The gag quickly caught on with viewers due to the sheer absurdity of it, eventually becoming immortalized via the "[=vinejoelMAMA=]" emote, which features Mario's face from the Photoshopped ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'' artwork used in the original video.[[/labelnote]]
142* BUP[[labelnote:Explanation]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkYAdJHN5X4 An edited soundbyte]] of Toad from ''VideoGame/MarioKart64''; originally from ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'' streamer Simpleflips' community, the meme ended up crossing over into Joel's as a result of the two being FriendlyFandoms (itself stemming from the above "Shoutouts to Simpleflips" joke).[[/labelnote]]
143* Pantherk [[labelnote:Explanation]] An ''OriginalCharacter'' for the game engine VideoGame/{{MUGEN}}, which features [[LiesToChildren 100% original assets]] made by an unknown author. The character was featured in a fangame called ''Mortal Kombat Chaotic'', in the same vein of ''VideoGame/{{VHFSMACVUSMRRM}}''. It's a crossover game which includes not only [[Franchise/MortalKombat MK]] franchise characters, but also, {{Original Character}}s and [[VideoGame/MortalKombat3 UMK3-adapted]] characters. One of them is Pantherk, who owns a fighting style similar to Shao Kahn, but groans like Goro and his head is almost the same as King from ''VideoGame/{{Tekken}}'' series. With his bad color palette, a sampling montage of a text-to-speech program that's supposed to sound like Shao Kahn saying "Pantherk" (which sounds more like as "Danterk") and the [[UsefulNotes/MSpaint copy-and-paste passion]], Joel modified some things here-and-there in the character to [[TookALevelInBadass make him more OP]] in that game. His quick acceptation by the chat and fans turned him into a Moobot (a Twitch bot for management of chat) command, as well a secondary emote for those who use [=BetterTTV=]. [[/labelnote]]
144* European Aim [[labelnote:Explanation]] When playing first-person shooters, Joel somehow [[NotTheWayItIsMeantToBePlayed wastes his ammo as if there is no tomorrow]]. This action is called ''European Aim,'' or ''EU Aim'' for short. Variations are made when he talks about something from his European costumes are similar to American costumes and the chat starts mocking-off about how European things are [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex inferior]] compared to American / Japanese things (e.g.: EU Pepsi). First heard in one of his ''[[VideoGame/ResidentEvil2Remake Resident Evil 2 Remake]]'' streams. [[/labelnote]]
145* Dog 2[[labelnote:Explanation]]Based on a bit in Joel's commentary stream of Creator/{{Ubisoft}}'s [=E3 2019=] presentation, in which he pulls up a stock image of a dog (a reference to a moment in which one presenter inexplicably brought a pit bull on-stage, which simply laid down the whole time it was there) and feeds it a "rare baguette" (a riff on Ubisoft's French origins), [[https://clips.twitch.tv/SuperLongEchidnaFrankerZ?tt_content=player_title&tt_medium=clips_embed causing it to]] [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} evolve]] into... the exact same dog, but with a handlebar mustache and a beret. Joel, in his usual style of absurdist humor, promply named the "evolved" pooch "Dog 2", and the character stuck with both himself and his viewers, becoming both a [=FrankerFaceZ=] emote for his channel and a counter-spam catchprase posted ''ad-nauseum'' in response to raids or other instances of unwanted spam (most notably with people who spam Vinny's "ANTS" meme in Joel's chat).[[/labelnote]]
146* Louter(, Joel)! LOUTER![[labelnote:Explanation]]His usual response to games that are [[SensoryAbuse extremely loud]], often with a faked accent (hence "louter") and Joel using his little kid voice. Nine times out of ten, he'll also turn the volume up just to mess with the audience.[[/labelnote]]
147* Fecalfunny.com [[labelnote:Explanation.]] A joke from part 1 of Joel's playthrough of an actual ''7 Grand Dad'' cartridge (via a Famiclone) in which Joel devises a fictional website for hosting "diarrheic" content in reference to his own penchant for ToiletHumor. Not too long after the initial joke, someone genuinely purchased "fecalfunny.com" as a domain name and programmed it to redirect to Joel's Twitch channel. Since then, "fecalfunny.com" has become [[HeroicSelfDeprecation self-deprecatory]] slang for Joel's channel and content, to the point where he [[https://clips.twitch.tv/DistinctSavoryPorpoiseYouDontSay?tt_content=player_title&tt_medium=clips_embed proceeded]] to joke about using it in place of his actual channel URL while viewing a fan animation based on the opening to ''Manga/KeepYourHandsOffEizouken''-- only to find out that the artist already beat him to it, to his excited glee.[[/labelnote]]
148* [[SchmuckBait "Check the bathroom."]] "No! I'm not checking the bathroom!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]During his playthrough of ''VideoGame/SignalSimulator'', Joel makes it clear that he's terrified of the possibility of encountering aliens extending off of his own genuine belief in and fear of intelligent alien life (following an incident in childhood where he claims he saw a UFO in the form of a glowing orange light in broad daylight), prompting chat to constantly tell him to check the bathroom of his station. Joel [[ParanoiaFuel naturally refuses every time.]] [[/labelnote]]
149** "Joel Checks the Bathroom" [[labelnote:Explanation]]In the sixth stream of ''Signal Simulator'', Joel really did encounter the bathroom alien EasterEgg and freaked out tremendously at the sight of the alien peeking through his window. Fandom animator Zeurel quickly produced [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5mdFk-Xsc0 a short animation]] of Joel's reaction; this animation quickly became a popular exploitable, showing Joel reacting to any number of things behind the bathroom door.[[/labelnote]]
150* Mug [[labelnote:Explanation]]During his ''VideoGame/BlackMesa'' playthrough, Joel gets into a discussion about soft drinks and he expresses an interest in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mug_Root_Beer Mug Root Beer]] because he likes the dog mascot and thinks "mug" is a [[InherentlyFunnyWords funny word]]. This later spawned into several "Mug" related expressions like "Mug Moment" or "Mug Gamer". Joel jokingly pitched the idea of starting a fake Steam group or clan called "Mug" after discovering that there exists a Steam group for [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lidl Lidl]]. A fan later sent Joel [[https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1972765098 a mod]] for ''Black Mesa'' that gave the vending machines, soda cans, and [=HEV=] chargers Mug logos, much to his excitement. The whole thing then culminated in Joel importing a case of Mug from the United States and trying it on stream, where he promptly voiced his approval of the flavour.[[/labelnote]]
151* Joel has small eyeballs.[[labelnote:Explanation]]During his playthrough of ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'', Joel played the game in windowed mode, while also increasing the UI size. This, combined with the way he often missed items and objects critical to progress, led to a chat member to say this. This sent Joel into ''hysterics'', and led to the sentence being repeated every time Joel doesn't notice something important to the game, as a rough analog to similar jokes about WebVideo/Jerma985 supposedly being comically short.[[/labelnote]]
152* AGGA [[labelnote:Explanation]]A nonsense phrase stemming from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-G5FdQrfwLw an incident]] during a BRB when an error in Joel's Xsplit streaming software caused his programs to lock up while he was in the middle of superimposing text over a clip of the UsefulNotes/McDonalds dance party scene in ''Film/MacAndMe''. His increasing inability to troubleshoot the problem led to him panicking and keysmashing out of frustration, leaving the letters "[[{{Angrish}} AGGA]]" (among others, such as "FFFFF", "FUCKF" and "HELPH") stuck on the screen for a good part of the segment. The absurdity of the phrase and the overall situation, plus the fact that that the ''Franchise/StarWars'' theme was loudly blaring over in the background on a loop, later resulted in Joel's chat typically spamming "AGGA" to the ''Star Wars'' theme and any mention of the franchise in in general as well as whenever Joel runs into technical difficulties.[[/labelnote]]
153* TORNÁDO/TWISTER ZONE [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reoccurring phrase from Joel in his [[https://youtu.be/9Lu99J5UsXs?t=446 Windows 98 Destruction video]] where he plays a Czech game promoting [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twister_(ice_cream) Twister ice cream]] that, at least on Joel's version, has ''very'' [[SensoryAbuse loud/bass-boosted audio]]. The phrase and its variations are regularly used by both Joel and chat in response to any sort of overly loud audio.[[/labelnote]]
154* Snusk [[labelnote:Explanation]]When on his "Gamer Protein Powder" segment, Joel noticed a one star, one word review for the "The Butcher" protein powder, that simply contained the word "Snusk", (it means filth in Swedish), and due to its InherentlyFunnyWords nature, it immediately blew up in the fanbase, it's often used for something that's so shitty and insane it's funny.[[/labelnote]]
155** Hell, the entire line of SoBadItsGood [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHizgpADHrPKHvqBg_sYzhg The Butcher protein powder commercials]] goes into this category, especially the [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pobrane_8.png extremely exploitable reaction face]] by the dude in the commercials.
156* Thumb Joel/[=VargThumb=][[labelnote:Explanation]]A photoshopped picture of Joel that gives him an unusually thick neck and pointy head in the vein of [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 Heavy Weapons Guy]]. Originating from [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Vinesauce/comments/gdyqkp/small_head_or_big_joel/ a post on the Vinesauce subreddit]], the image would gain extra attention when it was used as a visual representation of Joel in Did You Know Gaming's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Dn-d45bUAo video]] on ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' bootlegs, jarring with their typical formality. Since then, the image has been a popular source of jokes, fanart, and further edits among fans for its ridiculousness, and it eventually became a BTTV emote on Joel's channel.[[/labelnote]]
157* In 1972... [[labelnote:Explanation]]The [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin entire opening]] of [[Series/TheATeam The A-Team]]. Used first in Ubisoft Forward E3 2021 presentation and is mainly used when some [[WarIsHell warfare]] or footage from [[FirstPersonShooter FPS games]] appears. It is also an [[WallOfText copypasta material]] for Twitch Chat.[[/labelnote]]
158* Joel's Soul Calibur III Stream [[labelnote:Explanation]]One day, Joel decided to stream Soul Calibur III, however, massive technical issues occured, like severe audio delay, which forced him to restart and repeat the stream from scratch multiple times, which resulted in the below copypasta, and also turning it into a glorious meme hell in the process.[[/labelnote]]
159** The Soul Calibur III Copypasta [[labelnote:Copypasta]]Alright, so we're gonna be checking out Soul Calibur 3 tonight. Umm...One of my favorite fighting games on the Playstation 2, umm...you know. And it's not really comparable to Tekken. Ehh, you know, it's a Namco game, and... Uhhm, for me, uh...for me, it's important because Soul Calibur 3 was kind of my introduction to the series...umm...and, um...umm...yeah, it-it-it's an incredible game..[[/labelnote]]
160* SPRUNK'D [[labelnote:Explanation]]During Joel's stream of ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas: Definitive Edition'', he decided to blow money on hundreds of cans of Sprunk to have enough money to [[CallBack bet all of it on horse racing]]. He proceeded to spend close to an hour drinking Sprunk while listening to '80s music. As he got to the chorus of "Eye of the Tiger", the game crashed thanks to a memory leak glitch (which, contrary to popular belief, is in all versions of the game), and Joel's save file was corrupted due to the autosave kicking in when he drank the game-crashing Sprunk. He proceeded to declare that he "Sprunk'd" the game, and the ridiculousness of the situation combined with the game's reputation as a PortingDisaster resulted in "Sprunk'd" catching on as a term for crashing a game so badly that it won't even open again.[[/labelnote]]
161* Joel's Anti Alien Alarm [[labelnote:Explanation]]During one of Joel's Voices of the Void streams, he orders a television in game and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xR1GEP9qroI sets it]] to play a custom video where he orders aliens to leave while [[VideoGame/{{Doom}} At Doom's Gate]] plays in the background. This message ended up getting broadcast into space at least [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnInQnddyhI two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7Gd4N1rVOg times]], and was even used in an attempt to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q94IjCCnpuM jam]] the Russian [[NumbersStations number station]] known as The Buzzer.[[/labelnote]]
162* Balls Over [[labelnote:Explanation]]On a Shareware Madness stream, Joel modded and played a preschool dinosaur spelling game, and once the first (and only) round was finished, the game showed the two words he missed, being "BALLS" and "OVER". The two words in that order out of context as "BALLS OVER" caught Joel off-guard, to the point where he briefly slipped back into his rough accent from years ago. Because of this, many fans have compared this moment to the classic "Grand Dad". Thus, some edits have popped up, putting the "Grand Dad" music onto the scene. [[/labelnote]]
163* Duendes [[labelnote:Explanation]]The first part of his ''Spooky [=YouTube=] Video Night'' series focused on "duendes" (undersized humanoid creatures in Spanish, Latino, and Portugese folklore), in which he watched and reacted to low-quality videos supposedly "capturing" duendes. Joel's constant denial of the proof being fake along with the laughability of the videos sparked his audience to constantly shitpost about them, alongside associating sterotypical martians as "duendes."[[/labelnote]]
164* Mr. Bean Sex Jackass [[labelnote:Explanation]]A video of the scene from Film/{{Bean}} where Mr. Bean dries water off his trousers with an air dryer in an interesting fashion became popular in early 2024 after Joel [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCev26mwq3M& made a video about it]] and some fans made edits of the scene with different music and changing colours. It would eventually lead to a new emote created based on the scene due to its ridiculousness.[[/labelnote]]
165[[/folder]]
166
167[[folder:GPM]]
168* Buff [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Riku]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During GPM's time at WebVideo/GamesRepainted, one of the most popular and abused images to insert was a inexplicably muscular [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/buff-riku/images/d/d0/Buff_riku.png/revision/latest?cb=20150513011443 drawing]] of ''Kingdom Hearts''' resident {{bishonen}}, initially found when fellow repainter Fred Fuchs searched for the opposite of [[BalloonBelly inflation]] art during ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine Repainted''. It transferred over to GPM's streams, becoming a mascot and leading into the following meme.[[/labelnote]]
169** Buff everything. [[labelnote:Explanation]]GPM's "Miiverse Is Hell" streams involve AudienceParticipation in the form of "Buff Threads", where only drawings of raw TestosteronePoisoning is allowed. This has led to buff versions of every fictional character under the sun (including ones without any limbs whatsoever), as well as buffed versions of nonliving objects.[[/labelnote]]
170* succ. [[labelnote:Explanation]]While it's [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/succ-she-succ-me-get-the-succ already a meme in general]], it turned into an {{Arc Word|s}} for GPM during the ''[[VideoGame/RollerCoasterTycoon OpenRCT2]]'' multiplayer stream with Joel. He had built a ride called "succ"; first, it led to a patch of meadow with "SUCC" crudely written in the grass, then was made into a full circuit, except that cars on it derail and crash spectacularly. ("succ has crashed." "4 people have died in an accident on succ.") Signs along the ride read "WELCOME TO SUCC", "SUCC IS DEAD", and "NO SUCC". It's since become a catchphrase for GPM. It's also noteworthy that this spread so much that Joel made it a banned word to have your chat message consist of only the word "Succ".[[/labelnote]]
171* GPM's [[AIIsACrapshoot psychotic Twitter bot]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]In 2016, GPM set up a now-defunct "ebooks" account (akin to the infamous "horse ebooks" Twitter bot) for his Twitter; basically, it took words and word chunks from GPM's tweets and made new tweets with them. While it normally created gibberish as expected, around April/May 2016 it started to make an unsettling amount of tweets involving murder, self-awareness, and general WordSaladHorror. Fans characterized the bot as an unstable maniac with a desire to KillAndReplace the real deal, while GPM proceeded to give the bot a corrupted, WebOriginal/{{Zalgo}}-fied makeover, and as of December 2016 its avatar was a distorted GPM drawing with [[RedEyesTakeWarning glowing red eyes]] and a SlasherSmile.[[/labelnote]]
172* ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty''. [[labelnote:Explanation]]GPM saw Sausage Party and decided to rant about it on a stream. Ever since, he's been getting messages about the movie on Tumblr.[[/labelnote]]
173[[/folder]]
174
175[[folder:Darren]]
176* Content-aware scale. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Video clips become increasingly warped after having a content-aware-scale filter applied to them. This is generally done to poke fun at the source material.[[/labelnote]]
177* Balegdah. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Like Bonzi and most music-related examples from ''Super Mario Galaxy Repainted'', this didn't technically originate from Vinesauce, but Darren introduced it to the community with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1pVQkmcTso this content-aware-scale video]] showing a gibberish word being said with a bad Jamaican accent. Vinny would later inject it into a ''Zelda'' corruption, leading to "It's balegdahs to go alone."[[/labelnote]]
178[[/folder]]
179
180[[folder:Rev]]
181* PAX South green screen. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Rev appeared in front of a green screen at PAX South 2016. He uploaded the raw footage and encouraged people to edit the green screen.[[/labelnote]]
182* Every day is Rev's birthday. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Rev accidentally wished someone a happy birthday during one stream, despite it not being said person's birthday. So people wished Rev a happy birthday constantly to the point where he got irritated with it and it became {{Discredited|Meme}}. This didn't stop him from making a "revDay" emote (his head wearing a party hat) for his channel.[[/labelnote]]
183* [[VideoGame/TheWolfAmongUs [Glass Him] ]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A prompt from Rev's ''The Wolf Among Us'' playthrough, which he picked thinking it would make Bigby [[INeedAFreakingDrink give someone a drink]], when it actually made him [[GrievousBottleyHarm smash a glass in the person's face]]. Its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urKJqdq4eX4 highlight]] is the most-viewed video on his channel by a wide margin.[[/labelnote]]
184* [[AvantGardeMusic Washwave]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Originating from Rev's VideoGame/KittyPowersMatchmaker stream is Rev's ''[[https://beesmcbees.bandcamp.com/album/hotstart HotStart]]'' album, which consists of various dishwasher noises slowed down. Ridiculous on its own, but it escalated when ''people actually bought it'' when he uploaded it to Bandcamp (though he would later tweet that he didn't think it felt right to keep the money) and he dreamt that [[PoesLaw it became a success that moved people to tears]].[[/labelnote]]
185%%* [[TheAggressiveDrugDealer Check the weed]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Rev's frequent ''Shoppe Keep'' streams usually lead to him selling weed [[BoringButPractical due to how affordable and profitable it is]]. This leads to him walking around outside begging people to buy his drugs. Managed to become a channel emote (revWeed).[[/labelnote]]
186* Bad ripoff Flash games in general. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Rev managed to get associated with bizarre knock-off Flash games around 2015, with ''{{WesternAnimation/Frozen|2013}}'' being the biggest culprit (to the point where Rev has a "revOlaf" emote). Much fun has been made of the games' absurd specificity (such as the infamous "Baby Elsa Hair Salon Injury") and the amount of {{Squick}} present. Of note is the time Rev was supposed to play twenty ''Frozen'' games as a 2015 charity incentive, only to end up having to do ''55'' due to some ExactWords in the description.[[/labelnote]]
187* Glass dongle. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A bizarre, [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything vaguely sexual]] {{Inherently Funny Word|s}} that caught on with Rev's fans. Rev doesn't really understand why.[[/labelnote]]
188* The Pit. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A creation from Rev's mind visualized in one of his ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZbBGdufRpQ Planet Coaster streams]]''which has become popular with his fans due to its mysterious properties and implications. [[/labelnote]]
189* Rev's Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} Chart, a sort of visual aid he created to help him keep track of the comic's timeline during his streams of it, has become a FountainOfMemes at this point given all of the [[StringTheory interesting]] [[EpilepticTrees things]] he's added to it over the course of his readthrough.
190** Thurkday [[labelnote:Explanation]]Early on, Rev drew a diagram to explain his weekly stream/upload schedule. Upon realizing that it was hard to understand unless the week had an even number of days, Rev made up a day of the week called "Thurkday" on the spot. It wasn't long before both chat and Rev himself started simply calling Homestuck streams "Thurkday"[[/labelnote]]
191** Elmo is already here/Lord Elmo [[labelnote:Explanation]]Later on, Rev drew Elmo on the chart with angry eyebrows and the word "FEAR" written under him. He then started joking about how powerful Elmo was and ended up saying that Elmo was "already here", completely unaware that the main villain of Homestuck is associated with that phrase. Those watching who had already read the comic found this very amusing. The Elmo drawing became an emote (revFear)[[/labelnote]]
192** Dave Moment [[labelnote:Explanation]]It's common for chat to joke that Rev is Dave (much to his chagrin), given that they both have a tendency to go on long tangents about random things. That, and they have other amusing similarities with each other, such as having similar senses of humor and both being from Texas.[[/labelnote]]
193** .<---- MPREG PIXEL [[labelnote:Explanation]]Originates from a moment where Rev added [[ItMakesSenseInContext Dave Mpreg]] to the chart and accidentally left a couple of stray pixels behind while dragging it. These were promptly given an appropriate name.[[/labelnote]]
194** 25 dollars [[labelnote:Explanation]]As part of the 2019 charity stream, Rev promised he would read one page of Homestuck for every 25 dollars donated. Sometimes when a particularly bizarre page of the comic is reached, Rev will remind the chat that someone paid 25 dollars to force him to read it.[[/labelnote]]
195** HE FUCKED WITH THE GOBLINS[[labelnote:Explanation]]Watching/Listening to Leonard Nimoy's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR-MSZSLC5w The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins]] has become Rev's go-to method of procrastinating on reading the comic while streaming. To keep the [=YouTube=] uploads of the streams from getting demonetized, Rev alternates between playing the song on 2x speed ("Bilbo Nightcore") and 0.25x speed ("Bilbo Funeral Dirge") or if he's feeling spicy, both at once. This phrase comes from the observation that when played at one of these speeds, the word "fought" in the line "Well, he fought with the goblins" starts to sound more like "fucked" instead. Expect people to post it en masse whenever Literature/TheLordOfTheRings and/or goblins are mentioned.[[/labelnote]]
196** Sex God Mr. Bucket[[labelnote:Explanation]]Mr. Bucket is a children's toy with an unintentionally hilarious tv commercial -- one where a cartoon representation of Mr. Bucket urges the players to [[AccidentalInnuendo put their balls in his mouth]] (in context, they mean toy plastic balls, but... yeah.) Rev started to talk about it once he got to the troll romance portion of the comic (since troll reproduction involves buckets) and it's been an increasingly common topic of conversation since then, even during streams that have nothing to do with Homestuck. Many jokes, most of them sexual in nature, have been made about what its mouth looks like and what can be done with it.[[/labelnote]]
197* The culprit is clearly [[spoiler:Leon]]! [[labelnote:Explanation (mild Danganronpa spoilers)]]Ever since Rev got to the infamous CaptainObviousReveal in chapter 1 of ''VisualNovel/{{Danganronpa|Trigger Happy Havoc}}'', Rev and chat have joked frequently that other murders and plot twists in the series were orchestrated by Leon, even long after he had been executed.[[/labelnote]]
198* Chat rating Rev's burps [[labelnote:Explanation]] You can tell who all the regulars in chat are by checking how many users immediately post a score of 1 to 10 every time Rev lets one loose.[[/labelnote]]
199* The Thing [[labelnote:Explanation]] A bizarre twitch global emote that chat likes to use a lot, for whatever reason. Rev described it as "such a not-emote" because its purpose and the emotion it's supposed to represent are so unclear.[[/labelnote]]
200* Cumposting [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Twitch introduced the channel points feature, it didn't take long for people to start using their points to post highlighted messages that say some variation of "cum". For some reason, this caught on and now the word cum will be used by the chat in comedic booru art, to commemorate when the mods free them from emote-only mode, to drown out people posting spoilers or sometimes just because. Rev has referred to this act as "Cumposting".[[/labelnote]]
201* Rev stabbed a guy. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Rev recounted a story of himself having once pulled out a switchblade in self-defense to scare off a home invader, which fans then turned into him going as far as stabbing them as a form of {{Memetic Badass}}ery. Often stated told in a deliberately [[DissonantSerenity cheerful]] tone for added hilarity.[[/labelnote]]
202* 39/40. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Rev came incredibly close to beating Christopher Robin in ''VideoGame/WinnieThePoohsHomeRunDerby'', but fell short by one home run. Whenever his name comes up in someone else's stream, especially coming off an attempt to beat the game, expect chat to be littered with this remark. After defeating him in 2024, this meme has been retired.[[/labelnote]]
203[[/folder]]
204
205[[folder:Jen]]
206* "Why is [[VideoGame/BanjoKazooie Kazooie]] a dragon?" [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Jen played ''Banjo-Tooie'', she did a sidequest that gives Kazooie a dragon transformation. Since the transformation is relatively obscure, this led to a lot of chat members asking why Kazooie was a dragon, to the point where it got annoying for everyone who actually paid attention. It gets brought up occasionally for similar AskAStupidQuestion situations.[[/labelnote]]
207[[/folder]]
208
209[[folder:Limes]]
210* "won VideoGame/{{wordle}}" [[labelnote:Explanation]]In early 2022, [[https://tenor.com/view/laimu-gif-24868670 a GIF]] of Laimu doing a HappyDance was uploaded to the [=GIF-sharing=] platform Tenor with this caption, and it ended up catching on outside of her fanbase, with people who had never even heard of her posting it to celebrate their ''Wordle'' results. Limes has noted, [[NeverHeardThatOneBefore with mild exasperation]], that she's had a surprising number of people recognise her as "the Won ''Wordle'' girl".[[/labelnote]]
211* EAT ASSHOLE [[labelnote:Explanation]]A MondegreenGag based on the "singing" in VideoGame/YoshisStory, which is often used by Limes' chat paired with dacing emotes. Very frequently used when she raids another streamer.
212[[/labelnote]]
213* Calm. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Due to Limes's accent, when she says the word "calm" it often ends up sounding like "cum". Unsurprisingly, her chat [[HehHehYouSaidX loves to tease her about this]].[[/labelnote]]
214* Limes has no IONGRTEGRTIOY^T RT [[labelnote:Explanation]] For her 2.0 redebut, Limes played Crab Game with various other streamers, including Vinny. During a round of Red Light Green Light, Limes pushed Vinny during a red light causing him to be eliminated, prompting him to type "LIME WHERE IS YOUYR IONGRTEGRTIOY^T RT" in the game's chat. This heavily butchered typo is often said in chat whenever [[{{Jerkass}} Limes shows a lack of integrity towards Vinny.]][[/labelnote]]
215[[/folder]]
216
217[[folder:Mike]]
218* [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure "GET A LOAD OF THIS!"]][[labelnote:Explanation]]During a stream where Mike was reading [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] [[{{fanfic}} fanfiction]], he comes across one where it contains a scene where Dr. Eggman kills Amy Rose in a drunk driving accident that causes Sonic to undergo a {{sanity slippage}}. Mike then joked about how Eggman shouted "GET A LOAD OF THIS!" as he ran her over. This would quickly become an inside joke where the line in question would be quoted whenever an act of [[CarFu vehicular manslaughter]] would occur on stream[[/labelnote]]
219** [[https://betterttv.com/emotes/60b168e6f8b3f62601c34d0e ANGman]][[labelnote:Explanation]]An emote used by Twitch chat whenever the instance in question would occur on stream.[[/labelnote]]
220* [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] punches a pregnant woman[[labelnote:Explanation]]In another {{fanfic}} reading stream, Mike encounters a chapter where Sally Acorn announces her pregnancy to Sonic, to which he responds by punching her repeatedly in the stomach as he screams "ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, THAT BABY IS ''NOT'' GOING TO MAKE IT!" It's a {{crosses the line twice}} moment that catches Mike incredibly off-guard. The sheer absurdity of it made it an inside joke among his fanbase to characterize Sonic as a bastard who likes to punch pregnant women in the stomach. Whenever the subject of pregnancy shows up, expect him or his twitch chat to bring this meme up.[[/labelnote]]
221** [[https://betterttv.com/emotes/61a58db9b50549e7e50180f4 SonicPunch]][[labelnote:Explanation]]A Twitch emote that depicts the meme in question.[[/labelnote]]
222[[/folder]]
