Funny / Game Grumps Arin And Danny 3

A continuation of the second page. The first page is HERE, and the fourth is here.

Gal Gun

• Dan mentions that someone called him adorable when he says 420, like "an old man learning the new lingo".
  420's been around forever, yo. Fuckin, I was smokin when your mom was... getting banged by me. Before you were... I'm your dad, I've been meaning to tell you.
• By Part 6, Dan theorizes that nobody has been able to reach this part of the game due to being busy masturbating.
• "This is worse than House of the Dead!"

Deadly Premonition

• Their reaction to the squirrels having monkey noises.
• The return of an old friend:
  Hoffman!Dan: Lake Cranberry?!
• The driving segments are so long and boring it reminds Arin of ACTUAL driving, to the point where he starts zoning out and daydreaming during the game.
• Game audio got lost for a couple session's worth of episodes (8-21), so Matt and Ryan had to piece it together best they could from cutscenes and other footage available online. The disclaimer before this batch ended with them saying "Er, we tried. Thank you."
  • If you listen closely during those episodes, you can hear impact sounds being replaced with cartoon noises, like clown horns and farts.
  • During Episode 10, when York draws his gun after the hospital starts going nuts, Matt and Ryan added a sound clip of someone shouting "OH MY GOD HE'S GOT A GUN!" to the "game audio".
• "Freeze!"

Castlevania Chronicles

• Arin explains Tumblr to Dan.
  Danny: What is Tumblr?
  Arin: It's a website where people can post any form of media and you can re-blog it...
  Danny: Do people get mad there?
  Arin: Well there's people there...
  Danny: Ah, and people get mad.
• Dan & Arin discuss the difference between a dog licking peanut butter off balls and dog fucking.
• The Grumps imagine a bony dragon with a bumper sticker.
  How is my flying? Call 1-800-Fuck-You!
• Blurred penis ahoy!
• Arin fails a joke yet it still delivers.
• Danny recounts a comedian's story where a woman boasts then fails at understanding a man based on his birthday.
  • Later on : "Is that what Snow White did?"
• Arin suddenly walks off some stairs into death, stunning Dan into disbelief.
  Dan: Well then.
• The Grumps find interesting the bony enemies & pointy traps.
  Sit, Fido.

Intellivision

• Arin and Dan decide to play a collection of Intellivision games, which were heavily dependent on instruction manuals back when they were made. They resolve to try to figure out how to play each one through trial-and-error. First game is a tank game, and Danny figures out the controls quicker, ultimately trouncing Arin.
  • The second tank game they play has their projectiles bouncing back off the walls. Danny ends up just dodging Arin's shots and letting them bounce back and kill him rather than retaliating.
  Dan: I'm black. (describing his tank color versus Arin's red)
• Their misadventures flying Biplanes turn the Grumps into giggling idiots.
  • No, them playing Hover Horse cracks them up beyond repair.
  Dan: You just took out the K.T.L.A.5 Traffic Copter.
• Part 3 gives a hilarious Anti-Climax after Dan requests a Theme Music Power-Up.

Resident Evil HD

• Danny is stunned when Arin gets attacked by a giant snake in the library. "Snakes can't read!"
• Danny instantly puts it together that Wesker is the traitor. How? "He's the only other one."
• Arin has to carry an explosive chemical across a certain area, and can't get hit or shoot his gun for fear of setting it off. He manages to do it, but goes off in a completely wrong direction and carries it way longer than he has too. It's simultaneously infuriating and kind of impressive.
• Episode 24 is just... really great mouth sounds.
• Arin accidentally fires at the ceiling instead of at the zombie directly in front of Jill.
  Danny (as Jill): That was a warning shot!

Pokémon Sun

• Arin is dismayed to find that he can't name anyone anything vulgar. To add insult to injury, he accidentally names Rowlet "Flug."
• While Arin is discussing how hundreds of Pokémon have to be animated, Dan interrupts with this observation:
  Danny: Did she just say "my body is ready"?
• Arin catches a Pichu and sends Rooples the Ledyba to the PC because "he sucks". Ensues a magnificent gem of Hypocritical Humor after all his Fire Red shenanigans:
  Arin: Well Bug Pokémon are worthless, unless they're Scizor.
• Arin and Danny seeing Crabrawler for the first time's reaction is pretty funny, but the kicker is the Call-Back to the "Fuck your father" crab from their playthrough of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Arin even names the Crabrawler "Fukurfather"
• Arin begins one episode screaming in feminine orgasmic glee over a Pichu, "My pussy aches for more Pokemon!" Made better by the fact that while he's screaming, Flug the Rowlet turns his head to the camera as if giving an Aside Glance.

The Last Guardian

• While discussing "medical experts" in their YouTube comments, Arin relates a time when he talked about having an itchy asshole and got comments about how he might have had pinworms. Apparently while he knew he simply had an itchy asshole, he nonetheless took a close look at his feces to see if he really did.
  Arin: These fools got me looking, like, sticking my nose in my dookie. Just floating in the toilet and I'm just like 'Maybe I have pinworms' and I'm just looking down at it and I'm like...'I don't...what am I doing...?'.
• Arin and Danny's impressions of Kickstarter videos in episode 5.
  • Animated!
  • Animated again!
  • And again!

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard

• The first few episodes of the series have Arin playing the series on VR, and the Grumps have a GoPro filming their reactions to the game.
• It's pretty common knowledge that Danny isn't very good with scary games, but now the audience gets to see him with his legs folded up onto the couch and knees close to his chest.
• At the end of episode 2 (and the beginning of episode 3, as Danny didn't hit the button on the GoPro correctly), Danny scares Arin by telling him that he's going to tap on the VR helmet, but not tell him when.
• In episode 3, Arin and Danny find a corpse floating in the water. Their voices go up about an octave each.
  • Danny gets out of his seat and pretends to go, leaving Arin alone with the game. Danny then proceeds to quietly scuttle around the room to try and scare Arin.
• Episode 4 starts out with Arin taking a break from the headset, and is splayed upside-down on the couch as he attempts to describe what he's feeling about the next part.
• The Grumps end up having to take a break from recording the game... because the game has a 22GB update to install. The Grumps spend the last three minutes of the video talking into the GoPro and eating Frosted Flakes.

The Wacky World of Miniature Golf

• One of the selectable golfers is basically a cartoon version of Danny.
• The game itself is a terrible, unintuitive mess to say the least, and after the first putt ending in an octopus smacking the ball back to it's starting point Danny picks up on it.
  Danny: This is gonna suck!
• Not even 30 seconds into actual gameplay the capture begins to freak out with screen flickering that Arin fixes, but the electrical hum persists throughout the episode.
• Danny reveals not only did they pick up this game for their new CD-i, they also acquired a copy of Link: The Faces of Evil, only to find out it was in German.
• While Arin is fixing the capture Danny is already ready to sentence the game to being a one-off.
• The game attempts to make the players forget that they "beheld the wonders of Atlantis" through a hypnotic swirl. Of course, instead of being hypnotized, Danny feels sick. Unfortunately, because they set the game to four players, this means they have to watch it four times.
  Game: [for the second time] You've beheld the wonders...
  Danny: Ohhhhhhhh GOD, NO! Can you skip this??
  (Arin laughs)
• The guys spend the last three and a half minutes on the exact same shot with Arin flying into hysterics and Danny refusing to give up despite having long since hit the hole's stroke limit.
  Danny: Oh...my God. Oh my God! I hit it when the hole's in front, I hit it when it's to the back, I hit it when it's to the left, and to the right. What remains? *putts* There you go, there's some kind of weird—*ball bounces off the side*—FUCK ME!
• By the end of the first two holes Danny is completely fed up.
  Danny: Okay, you know what, Arin? I think we're going to call this an episode.
  Arin: No! Oh my god, this is so funny! *laughs*
  Danny: If we go sixteen more holes of this I'm gonna pick this TV up and throw it through the fucking window. Oh my god, I have the worst possible score you can have in golf after two rounds.
  Arin: Sweet. Next time on Game Grumps!
  Danny: Oh my god, you're dead to me. You're fucking dead to me.
• By the second episode the electric hum from the previous episode has been resolved. Danny's enthusiasm towards the game on the other hand...
  Danny: Oh, Arin. I am absolutely going to strangle you.
• A prehistoric frog eats Danny's ball.
  Danny: Okay, there we go! There we go. Oh. Oh! *camera cuts to the frog* No! *frog eats the ball* NOOOO!
  Arin: Awwww!
  Danny: You son of a bitch! Dead to me. Don't burp. *frog burps* I hate you.
• The episode two outro. Arin states that this is his favorite series in a long time. Danny wishes death upon himself.
• After three episodes of enjoying Danny's suffering it's suddenly not so funny for Arin once he's the one with the controller and it's Danny jabbing at him.
  Danny: You were loving this game five minutes ago.
• Their imitations of and jabs at the game's narrator, Eugene Levy, including jokes about how lonely he is and how he has to masturbate every night and the fact that their impressions of him sound like a goose with a cold. To be fair, the normally nasally Levy is exceptionally annoying in this game considering he never, ever shuts up.
• Danny's unexpected Big "SHUT UP!" to the cowboy robot. Out of all the characters, the cowboy bot is easily the most annoying as he taunts the player at every opportunity, and while Arin was already having fun watching the game's absurdity, he explodes with infectious laughter after Dan finally snaps.
• CHOPPIES!!

Pinstripe

• The Grumps instantly recognize characters voiced by PewDiePie and Jacksepticeye, neither of whom seem to be much more than cameo appearances. It takes them three episodes to realize that the relatively prominent character Mr. Dickie is voiced by Ross, their own coworker.

Wrestlemania X 8

• Easily one of the funniest things the Game Grumps have ever done, this two-part series is one continuous moment of funny as they completely take the piss out of the game's... liberal character creation system to create two abominations of nature called Stanley and Robonarples. It has to be seen to be believed.

Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment

• Part 3: The Dark Acolyte notices something interesting.
  Danny!Acolyte: Did you notice how everything's really dark and black and evil around here, and I'm kinda ghostly, and everything's dead? Do you ever think that maybe we're the bad guys?
  • The repeated deaths later in the episode, due to Arin getting spiked, then trying to recover his money and getting spiked again, are good for a chuckle.
• Part 6: The Grumps give the vulture bartender some personality.
  Danny: That bartender looks like a fun guy.
  Arin: (sinister, guttural voice) I am a vulture, I prey on the weak. Is it beer you seek?
  Danny: (normal voice) I don't drink, do you have iced tea? (sinister) Perhaps, maybe, I have some tea—if you answer these questions three!
  Arin: First question: would you like a lemon in your water?
• In Part 17, half of the episode is spent with Arin repeatedly dying due to mistakes being made, all the while he grows more frustrated with every single death, all the more reason to laugh.
• In Part 18 they finally get the Judgement Orb curio. Danny and Arin both can't help but gush a bit at how awesome it is.
  Danny: Whoooooooa!
  Arin: That's cool!
  Danny: That is awesome.
  Arin: *Dawning realization* I can go through walls!? *Uses the orb. Laughs as Specter Knight flies through the wall*
  Danny: *Blatanly delighted* 'Whooaaaaaa!! Dude, you just got as powerful as fork!
  Arin: *Equally delighted* Ohhhh, that's fuckin' stupid!

Hey You, Pikachu!

• Arin's friendly greeting to Pikachu
  Arin: FUCK YOU, YOU DUMB FUCKING PIKACHU! FUCK YOU AND YOUR ASS, YOU FUCKING YELLOW PRICK!
• Pikachu enjoying every insult they hurl at it.
• When they start the mission "A Pokemon Picnic," Dan mishears Pikachu saying "Pi-Pikachu" on the mission's title screen as "Picnic-a-chu."

Dead Rising 2

• Covfefe.
• Part 18 contains the most darkly humorous "Shaggy Dog" Story ever: Vikki, a survivor that Arin was escorting to safety, is killed by a zombie no more than four feet away from the safe house entrance.
  • There is also the reason Vikki was injured enough to be killed so easily: Arin accidentally hit her with a bench.
  • It's made even worse by the fact that it wasn't even the safe house entrance. It was a tunnel leading to a maintenance room and jack-all else. They actually walked past it without realising and went to the other side of the plaza.
  • Worse still (or arguably even better) is that even if it was the safe house entrance, Vikki wouldn't be savable because it's impossible to save people who have defected. Reasons that someone would defect include Chuck hitting them too much...like with a bench, for example. It's one giant "Shaggy Dog" Story where it could only end poorly.
  • As Danny sums it up,
  Danny: You fucked around and then you hit her with a bench and she got pissed at you. And then she died at the mouth of the maintenance tunnel.
• In Part 32, Arin comes up with a reason to beatbox every chance he can get.
  Arin: Hollatchaboy!
• In Part 33, Chuck sustains so much damage during the fight against Randy that Randy kills him by simply bumping into him.
• Arin spends awhile looking on the map for the cinema, and can't find it, so he exits the map...only for it to be right in front of him.

Cuphead

• "Didn't expect Satan to make such an early appearance in this."
• "We don't have souls! We're fuckin' cups!"
• Arin Hanson!Goopy le Grand: "I know something you don't know." Evil Laugh
• Near the end of their first Airplane Level, Arin got so focused on beating the boss that he didn't notice that Danny died, and could've easily revived him, but didn't. Danny had to call him out on it.

Doki Doki Literature Club

• Let's get this out of the way: because Doki Doki is such a dark Mind Screw of a game, with a major plot twist about halfway through that changes everything, fans in the comments have been waiting with bated breath for reactions (especially Dan's).
  • Speaking of, here's some nice Foreshadowing, be it intentional by Arin or accidental on Dan's part.
    Dan: Who could look at this title screen and not be like "I'm having a good time already"?
• Arin, who confirms in episode 8 that he's aware of what the game is about (somewhat, since he's only aware of the game's true nature rather than what actually happens), voices Monika as a Creepy Monotone Robot Girl.
  Arin!Monika: I'd much rather take something I personally enjoy personally enjoy enjoy is that the word enjoy enjoy proper word.
  • Dan, completely ignorant of the plot twist, requests that Arin do this voice for Monika based on her weirdly fixed gaze.
  • Monika's eyes light up...literally.
  • The Running Gag of Monika wanting to consume everyone's brains.^note This isn't far from canon.
  • The Running Gag of Monika's faulty hardware causing her to mess her sentences— mess up her sentences— Shutting down.
  • There's also the brief gag^note Which is part of a larger Running Gag concerning Monika's attempts to pass for human near the end of Act 1, where Monika discovers the poem you were going to write for one of the girls.
  Arin-as-Monika: I see. I hear. I taste. I am human. After all.
  • Later, in Part 25 which is especially full of Nightmare Fuel:
    Arin: [unnerved] ...I think there's more truth to the fact that we gave her a robot voice...
• The fact that "FriendArin"'s voice is basically Kenstar from Girl Chan In Paradise.
• Speaking of Arin's awareness, his only response to Danny's sarcastic "this is some intense plot" is a simple "Well..." Also, the robot voice for Monika, going by the episode 1 end bumper, was Danny's idea.
• Ross, of all people, encouraging Arin and Dan to keep playing.
  Ross: Have you gotten to that part?
  Arin: What part?
  Ross: ...Keep playing, you'll see.
• The unintended Running Gag of Arin getting the MC's and Monika's voices mixed up.
• "Get bigger hands!"
• Sayori gets stuck in quicksand.
• It's Part 2 and Danny is already invested.
  Dan: This is my fucking dream four-gie I'm looking at right now! Oh my God!
  Arin: Wouldn't it be a five-gie if you were involved?
  Dan: Uhhhhh...I didn't even think of myself being involved.
• In Part 3, everyone gets stuck in quicksand.
• At the end of Part 5, one of the Grumps puts on a funny little rap based on Sayori's poem "Dear Sunshine".
• During episode 8 itself, Monika's Electronic Speech Impediment increases in frequency until suddenly...
  Arin-as-Monika: So your poéms will tur- Battery low. Battery low.
• Sometimes, Monika's Coy, Girlish Flirt Pose would cause her ponytail to overlap with the other character models, causing all sorts of hilarity.
  • "Eat my hair."
  • "It's right there for you."
  • "Please. Eat my hair."
  • "Allow me to tickle your boob with my hair."
  • "Let me brush your tit a little bit."
• "I return to where I put my stuff and carefully slip the book into my bag. I fly off into space with rockets on my feet."
• The character's unclear ages lead us to this gem
  Arin: (MC voice) I don't really care how old everyone is but if Natsuki...(normal voice) you should care how old everyone is.
  Danny: You need to...you need to start caring.
• Yuri's continuously escalating interest in Clifford the Big Red Dog. What started out as just a Non Sequitur eventually culminates in Danny!Yuri mentioning that she wants to have sex on a pile of torn-out pages while calling her partner "Clifford".
  • She also mentions writing Clifford x Sonic fan fiction.
  • This Running Gag is especially hilarious since Yuri is a big fan of the True Art Is Angsty and True Art Is Incomprehensible variety of literature. Almost every time Yuri poetically describes her love for deep and complex storytelling, Danny will chime in by revealing she's still talking about Clifford.
• Danny's reaction to Sayori and Monika's sprites standing close to each other, making it look like they're holding hands.
• Arin mistakenly reads "turns to a box of manga" as "turns into a box of manga".
  Danny!Natsuki: HELP! *screams* I'M REDUCING!
• "Now what's really difficult is breathing through this one tiny nostril."
• "Sayori and Monika enthusiastically pull out their penises poems."
• "FUCK YOU, JIM!"
• In episode 8, when the fight between Natsuki and Yuri happens, Arin (as the Player Character) gets peeved because said fight is interrupting him eating potatoes. Whole, raw, unpeeled potatoes.
  "Yuri means well, and if you just told her how you felt, then this wouldn't have happened in the first place! You're standing between me and eating my potatoes!"
  • Better yet, this is only the beginning of a Running Gag where the player character is practically obsessed with potatoes.
• In episode 10, Arin somehow manages to make Yuri and the MC reading a book together into a Does This Remind You of Anything? moment through the sheer power of Large Ham. One commenter on a compilation of the series described the scene as "a frantic haze of eroticism".
• Episode 11 can be summed up as: "Danny makes a series of snarky in-character comments that wind up being far more darkly accurate than Danny himself might believe."
  Danny!Sayori: I'm gonna keep writing until I die...this afternoon!
  Danny!Natsuki: Did you say Yuri? But Yuri's been dead for three years!
  • Speaking of Natsuki, while Danny!Natsuki is reading "Amy Loves Spiders", s/he gets the irritation in his/her girly voice, in between reading faster and saying, "Fuck Amy!" and "I hate Amy!"
• Episode 12:
  • Monika's poem contains, among other things, the random reciting of "Sine, cosine, tangent" and ends on the words "Load me". The Grumps wonder if that means Monika is actually a robot.
    Arin: I think she's actually a robot, dude!
    Danny: That would be fucking awesome!
  • Monika doesn't run on the best software:
    Arin!Monika: Sayori's putting all... Sayori... SHUTTING DOWN... (Arin and Dan laugh) REBOOTING.
    Danny: Like you just talk to her too long and her ability to speak just like starts to decay slowly. (Dan and Arin laugh more)
• In episode 13, the MC has to read his poem in front of the girls:
  Arin: [narrating] "I stand up and step in front of the podium. Everyone has their eyes on me, making me feel terribly awkward."
  Danny: Oh, this would be a hard part to start masturbating. [...] Especially since two of them (Yuri and Natsuki) are looking, like, sorta disapprovingly. (Arin laughs and starts making masturbation sounds with his hands) Come on... Hair bow girl (Sayori) and robot woman (Monika) are into it.
  • After the MC finishes his poem, the "audience" responds with a single slow clap, an awkward cough, and someone shouting "You suck!"
• Sayori spaces out.
• The potato gag pops up after the closet scene with Natsuki.
  Arin: [as FriendArin] Natsuki lowers her head and stifles another sob. I slowly insert a potato into her mouth, to quiet her.
• When Monika looks straight ahead with a disappointed look on her face:
  Danny: Robot girl really does have a look on her face that's, like, "I can´t believe my agent got me into this... He's fired..."
• They name the face formed by quotations and ellipses ("...") Fred, which results in them deadpan saying the name whenever it comes up.
• Episode 16 starts with Natsuki wetting and soiling herself over how bad FriendArin's poem is.
  • Arin reads Natsuki's poem first normally, then turns it into a pop song, with Danny joining in to harmonize at times, all while maintaining in Natsuki's voice. The kicker is when the poem ends, and Arin and Danny punctuate it by just singing some rhythmic nonsense.
• Episode 19 has a...strange new opening.
• In episode 18, while Sayori confides in FriendArin about how she's suffered from serious depression her entire life, Dan points out that his Sayori voice doesn't exactly mesh with the scene.
  Danny: I wish I didn't give this character such a dumb voice before she started, like, pouring her heart out.
  • An understated moment comes from when the MC says something VERY insensitive to Sayori upon her confiding in him.
    MC: It almost feels like I've been betrayed as your close friend!
    Danny: Nice, douche.
• Episode 21:
  • Aptly titled "WHAT?!", the episode captures Danny's horrified expressions as the Grumps witness Sayori's suicide and finally start getting into the true nature of the game.
    Dan: WHAT!? WHAT!? Are you fucking serious!?
    Arin: ... yeah...
    Dan: WHAT!? Noooooooo fucking wa-(Cue the screen glitches)-oh my God, is this a horror game?
    Arin: ... I dunno, Dan.
    Dan: Are you serious...?
  • Dan is completely unable to process the moment.
    Danny: THIS is what happens in DOKI DOKI LITERATURE CLUB?
  • Arin continuing to play the game as if nothing bad happened while Danny spends several minutes trying to process everything really sells it. Danny coming to the full realization that they were playing a horror game the entire time and cursing Ross for making them play the game to this point was also funny.
    Danny: [talking about how Ross told them "You're gonna love it. There's a twist."] I thought it'd be, like, a sexy twist! Like it was gonna become a porn game after being so cute and innocent!
  • Dan Comically Missing the Point:
    Arin: "This isn't some game where I can just reset and try something different."
    Dan: Yeah, load and try something different!
  • Arin finally noticing Dan's stunned gibbering and blithely asks him what's wrong.
    Arin: Why, what's wrong?
    Danny: What do you mean what's wrong?!
    Arin: What, what's going on, we're just playing uh...
    Danny: I-I just realized we're fucking playing P.T. after I thought we were doing Sakura Spirit!
  • At one point, Danny compares the way he's feeling to how he felt when an Israeli relative of his described the Palestinian conflict as "it is like someone come into my house, and fuck my sister, near to my eyes."
  • At one point during his processing, Danny blurts out "Is this a Ghoul Grumps?!" Then, later, "Are we in The Matrix right now?!"
  • "Turn off the happy music!"
• In Episode 22, Dan decides to read the special poem that describes someone (implied to be Monika) cutting herself, and is so shocked by this that he can't read it in a goofy-sounding voice.
  Arin: ...what's wrong?
  Danny: Ugh—*Arin and Danny start giggling* Shut u—you fucking know what's wrong...
  • Dan describes how he explained his reaction to his "coworker".
    Dan: I was tellin' our coworker outside in the office between Grumps, "I- I was... planning to play this on my own, and go out with Monika, and- and jerk off to this game, and now I'm... now I'm not gonna.
• After a brief hiatus thanks to Jingle Grumps and Dan being out sick with the flu, DDLC finally comes back and Dan's on the lookout for more horrific content, imagined or real.
  YouTube Commenter: The jig is up guys. Dan got wise.
• Episode 24 has Arin and Danny poking fun at Natsuki's simplistic poetry style which culminates in a Running Gag of her "writing" a poem based on comments she overhears.
  Yuri!Dan: Shut up, Natsuki!
  Natsuki!Arin: [offscreen] "Yuri can yell."
• The Running Gag where Dan keeps bringing up Sayori in the vain hopes that characters will remember she existed.
• Episode 25
  • Arin booping Monika's nose with the mouse
    Dan: Aww. That's the teeniest snoot you can boop.
    Arin: Yeah, I booped that snoot.
• Episode 27:
  • Dan figuring out that Monika is addressing the player...aka them.
  • Dan loves this game.
    Dan: Was she just talking to us?
    Arin: Yes.
    Dan: Oh, boy, oh, boy, I like this so much.
    ...
    Dan: [reads Yuri's poem, Wheel, attempts to produce Tension-Cutting Laughter, but fails and dissolves into hoarse coughing] I— [hack] love it!
    ...
    Yuri: [realizes she's just accidentally implied she may have been using the main character's pen for unwholesome purposes] Can we pretend this conversation never happened?
    Dan: I... would love to, Yuri.
  • "Who should I show my poem to next?" "How about Natsuki, because Jesus fucking Christ."
  • Dan on Natsuki's absolutely nonsensical string of characters^note Actually a creepy poem about cutting written in Base 64.
    Dan: Oh...I love it!
    Dan: Never thought I'd yearn for the days of "Eagles Can Fly", but here we are.
  • The Natsuki Neck Snap Jump Scare. Featuring Arin doing a horrific demonic voice for Natsuki while Dan freaks the hell out.
    Dan: I fucking hate this game!
    Dan: OH HEY, NATSUKI! GOOD TO FUCKING SEE YOU!!!
    • Dan later looks up a Nestlé Crunch commercial with Natsuki.
  • Immediately after said Jump Scare:
    Danny: WHAT THE FUCK?! WHAT THE FUCK?!
    Arin: You unlocked a special poem.
    Dan: NOOOOOOOOO, THANK YOU!
  • Dan likens the game to a Bad Date with a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing:
    Dan: This game feels like a relationship where, like, you know the girl is crazy now, and you're just trying to figure out a way out of it. But like, you're not...you haven't- y-you're not old enough to be like...to have the maturity to be like "I just don't want see you anymore". Like, y-you still think, like, there needs to be, like, a graceful way out of things. So you're just sitting there at dinner, and she's just getting crazier and crazier and you're just like "[nervous laughter]...How's your dinner?" You know, like, and that's how I feel, that's how I feel. I fe-I feel like my girlfriend just freaked out at me and totally revealed that she's crazy and now we have to finish dinner.
    Arin: [laughs] "That's a big plate of spaghetti!"
• A sad moment in Episode 28 is, once again, spoiled by our hero's favorite food.
• Yuri is taking a suspiciously long time to bring back water for tea...
  FriendArin: "Is something holding her up?"
  Dan: Oh God, no...
  Arin: [barely choking back laughter] Like a rope?
• The Stinger to Episode 28:
  Dan: I'm ready for this experience to be over.
  Arin: I think it's juuuuuust beginning.
  Dan: NOOOOOOOOO!
• Episode 29.
  • "Just Monika":
    Arin-as-FriendArin: Who should I show my poem to next?
    Dan: I THINK MONIKA WOULD BE A GOOD CHOICE! I CHOOSE THAT OF MY OWN VOLITION! HEY MONIKA! AHAHAHAHA!!!
  • "FriendArin...My heart...My heart won't stop pounding, FriendArin...I can't calm down. I can't focus on anything anymore...! I HAVE TO DANCE!"
    • "I feel like I'm losing my mind...WITH THE DANCE FEVER!"
  • Arin tries to read the (mostly) illegible writing of Yuri's final poem (not even bothering to read the second part of the poem, whose words are actually legible (just barely) and refer to Project Libitina based on the mention of the third eye), only for it to be blocked by bloodstains and something...gross.
    Dan: What's the yellow stain? I don't actually wanna know.
    Arin: ...Pee-pee?
  • When Monika says that it's time to plan the festival preparations, Dan does not hesitate to hide how he feels about her.
    Dan: I feel like everytime I see Monika, like...I-I'm like talking to someone who I know is fucking insane, and so I...like, try to act waay too normal. Like, HEEEEY!
    Arin: HEY!
    Dan: MONIKA!
    Arin: Ah-You are looking FINE!
    Dan: WHOOO!
    Arin: And normal!
    Dan: Good! To!
    Arin: A-As usual.
    Dan: See you!
    Monika: Let's hurry and get this over with.
    Dan: GOOD TO SEE YOU!
  • Dan's reaction to Yuri's love confession.
    Dan: Sorry, Yuri, but I'm as limp as a wet noodle right now.
  • Also, Dan's delivery of "AHAHAHA! Wow, there's something really wrong with me isn't there" which causes both him and Arin to crack up. Particularly, how the crazed laughter that was supposed to be used for Yuri sounds more like frightened laughter of Dan's own volition.
  • At the end of the episode Danny leaves the room when Arin gets up to use the bathroom, because he doesn't want to be left alone with the game.
• Episode 30 begins with Yuri's suicide. Dan is genuinely upset by the sight until...
  Dan: Oh, no...Oh God, it's Clifford the Big Red Stab Wound!
  Arin [laughing hysterically]: Oh, come on now!
  • The animated version of this scene makes it hilariously darker by having both Arin and Dan in the room pointing and laughing at Yuri's corpse.
• Episode 31.
  • When Monika does her Evil Gloating, she explains, in detail, how she deleted the other girls. Dan lampshades how easily this backfires on her.
    Dan: This is the point where you should probably stop talking, Monika.
  • Monika is deleted.
    Monika: How could I do that to someone I love? That's not love. That's...
    Dan and Arin-as-Monika, simultaneously: Fred.
    (Arin laughs)
    Dan (In a suave voice): That's not love, that's Fred.
    Arin: That's Fred, baby.
• The game restarts. Dan is 100% done and starts thinking of various ways to kill himself to get out of here.
  Dan: At this point I wouldn't even wait to find a gun. I'd just place a bullet on the desk and slam my head onto it really hard like the Joker in The Dark Knight.
  • Which leads to:
    Dan: I mean, where is anything I can put in my forehead? Like anything.
    Arin: What about my wiener?
    Dan: ...Ugh, alright, almost anything.
    Arin: YES! FINALLY! DOKI DOKI LITERATURE CLUB, THANK YOU SO MUCH! OH MY GOD!
  • Dan's Big "NO!" as everything restarts.
  • With everything restarting, Dan begins wondering if they should continue playing to see what happens. When he poses the question to Arin along with other inquiries, Arin only slyly replies with, "I don't know, Dan."
    • The same sly "I don't know, Dan" was also Arin's reply to Dan's stunned question of if they're playing a horror game.
• They both are cautiously relieved that everything seems to be back to normal once they restart with no Monika. Everything's back to cute interactions and jokes, up until they get to one line...
  Dan: [in Sayori falsetto] "I wanted to thank you for" [voice slides back down to normal] "getting rid of Monika." Ohhhh boy.
• During the credits, as the guys watch CGs of the girls being deleted, they take notice of a...suggestive image of Natsuki seemingly being pinned to a wall by the player character that neither of them recognize (due to them having skipped that particular CG).
  Dan: Woah, I don't remember that scene!
  Arin: Woah.
  Dan: That seems a little forceful...
• And Dan's final summary after playing the game through:
  Dan: Man, that was a lube-free mind-fuck.
• Arin begins to explain how there's a hidden Golden Ending, only for Danny to immediately shut him down.
• After watching the series in its entirety, it's amazing to see how much of Dan's accidental Foreshadowing (as mentioned above) was shockingly on point.
  • Or, for that matter, just how much unsubtle Foreshadowing Arin managed to sneak past Dan without him noticing.
• The Reveal at the very end that Dan Salvato, the man behind DDLC, made one of the Mario Maker levels they tried.
  "So he's actually been fucking with us for quite some time."
• In December of 2021, the entirety of the series was uploaded as one video, over six hours long, with no real changes between the original uploads and the giant marathon upload... With one exception. At certain points, most typically around the moments when Dan accidentally does some Foreshadowing or flawless plot prediction, the aptly-named "Danny's Life Changes Forever" timer appears, counting down to the game's Wham Shot.

Voyeur

Part 1

• Despite never leaving their apartment, the player character is able to interact with objects in Hawke Manor. Needless to say, this leaves Arin and Danny baffled.
  Arin: How can I do this?!
• Upon hearing a sex scene involving the guy saying "thank you" afterwards, Danny says that next time he has sex, he's gonna say it.
  Danny: Next time I get laid, I'm gonna be like. (imitating the guy from the game) Thank you!
  • It gets better when another scene involves one of the characters talking to themselves, saying not to blow it. Danny responds.
    Danny: (imitating Frank again) Blow it! Thank you!

Part 2

• Arin finds a note addressed to Frank from Chantal and a picture of a cucumber. He's disturbed by this, but accidentally keeps clicking on the picture.
  Arin: I don't care about the cucumber. I don't care about the cucumber.
• In the game, when Reed meets with his daughter about a toxic waste spill, there's this comment from Danny.
  Reed: Yes, I know.
  Danny: (speaking as Reed) I love toxic waste.
  • At the end of the same scene, Reed reaches for the phone, but one frame shows his hand missing it, leading to a comment from Danny.
  Danny: (speaking as Reed) Where's the green screen phone? Is it here?
• Two characters (Jessica and Masa) in the game get into an argument, afterwards we get this comment from Arin.
  Arin: (speaking as Masa) Now close your eyes and imagine a forest!
• In the next scene, Jessica gets a phone call from Chantal asking her to meet with her about a file. Jessica says "Give me half hour." Which leads to Arin believing that Jessica is starting to take on the mannerisms of her husband, Masa. What follows is Arin speaking like her in Engrish.
  Arin: Give me half hour!
  Me at bar!
  Damn it! I'm talking like him again.
• This comment from Danny.
  Danny: 8:30, this is when the coitus happens. (screen cuts to black and then to a room with Reed and a woman talking)
  Coitus!
• Another argument between Jessica and Masa leads to more hilarious dubbing for Danny and Arin.
  Danny:(speaking as Masa) I was in a mid-70's Godzilla movie, Terror of Mecha Godzilla.
  He fought Titanosaurus!
  Arin: It was awesome!
  Danny: Dr. Malfuni!
  Arin: I brought the VHS!

Part 3

• Instead of watching and recording the scene of Reed murdering Jessica, Arin and Danny waste the rest of the time listening to Lara and Zack having sex.
  • Later, they call the police and unknowingly give him a blank tape, which results in a game over.
• In the game after a tv reporter is done talking, there's this exchange between Danny and Arin.
  Arin: (speaking as the reporter) I hope I can find work after this. [the duo erupt into laughter]
  Danny: Spoiler alert, I don't.
• Arin and Danny look up the endings on Youtube and come across the bad ending where Chantal shoots the player character. Their comments about the delayed reaction to the gunshots are priceless.
  Danny: Did you shoot me? Let me know when the effect gun goes off.
  Arin: I think you missed.
• When Reed is arrested, Arin and Danny comment about his denial of the charges.
  Arin: I deny that, that was exactly me, clearly me-
  Danny: Murdering someone.
• There's this comment from Danny using Curly's accent.
  Danny: It'd be cool if he killed one of the Three Stooges and it was like "Hawke Moiders Family Member."

Muppet's Adventure: Chaos at the Carnival

• They get a kick out of the fact that the name of the villain is Mr. Grump.
• While playing River Run, they notice Kermit looks terrified.
  Mmmmm! Miss Piggy help me!
  Mmmm! It ain't easy being in a game like this!
  Kermit the Frog here, currently dying in a river. Currently staring down the barrel of the gun that will shoot me in the face, AKA this river.

Mega Man 7

• Dr. Willy?
  • Funnier also because Arin's said that he goes back and replays the game for fun when he's bored, but never noticed it.
• "Don't diss me, 'cause I'll make history."
• What if Mega Man was pronounced "Me-Gay Man"?
• In Part 3, Dan tells the story of rocker who was such a heroin addict that a mosquito once drank his blood only to instantly die from a heroin overdose.
  • What bewilders Danny about the story is the fact that the rocker laughs when the mosquito gets pointed out to him and says "Watch this".
    Danny: How much heroin do you have to do not to even just have that happen, but to have it happen enough times where you know it's gonna happen in advance?!
• Part 4. It doesn't get past Danny that the "Freeze Cracker" ability sounds kinda racist.
  Danny: FREEZE, CRACKER!!
  (Arin and Danny crack up for a good twenty seconds)

Subnautica

• In the first episode, Dan describes Subnautica as "the new hotness".
  Dan: Which is ironic, 'cause it's very wet.
• As Arin puts out the fire in the escape pod, the Grumps beatbox along with the tense background music, even extinguishing the fire to the beat.
  Arin: THIS PARTY'S ON FIREEEEEEEE!
• "Damn this iPhone 7."
  • "iPhone 200"
• Dan describes Fig Newtons as looking like dog shit mixed with straw. Arin immediately agrees.
• Arin lights a flare... then drops it in the ocean.
  Dan: Did you just throw the flare into the water?
  Arin: Look... I'm not a smart man.
  • Later on in the episode, Arin lights one inside the escape pod, then fails to realize he can pick it back up, leading to the inside of the escape pod being blindingly bright for a good chunk of the episode.
• The Grumps discover acid mushrooms.
  Dan: Finally. Combining two hallucinogens at once.
• Arin spots a very still cloud hovering above the water.
  Arin: Do you think that's a cloud or is that an island, in the distance?
  Dan: I don't know. Do you think that's a flare in your hand or an epipen? Or a dildo? I guess it could be any of those.
  Arin: [laughs] Could be all of the above. Depending on what I...
  Dan: Depending on how determined you are.

Guts and Glory

• Dan reveals how they found the game - a friend of his texted a clip of the game. Dan, knowing he'd be doing Grumps the next day, decided to do the game.
  "I'm dyin'!"
• They spend a good amount of the first episode dealing with a constant veer to the left, declaring it "Hard Mode".
• Some of the names they encounter on the leaderboard, including "MrDaNii" and "50ShadesOfBinks"
  • "We beat Bignuts"
  • "CANCER JESUS?!"
  • They manage to get a high score higher than "Coolest Monkey In The Jungle", though just below "MonkeyLovesCrack".
  • Followed up later by "JunkyMonkey".
• "Nothing a band-aid won't fix."
• At random parts during the first episode (courtesy of Matt and Ryan), the camera zooms in on the Grumps' cursor, which Arin leaves right the middle of the screen for the duration of the episode.
• Arin mistakes arrows being shot at him as "the wind". He is swiftly corrected.
• Arin calls Jimmy "Timmy". He uses this as an excuse to tell him he's adopted.
• As they recieve a "beautiful finish", Arin immediately crashes into a wall, prompting a car-crash sound edit.
• Arin recieves the power of "Adrenaline" to slow down time and avoid saw blades. It goes as well as you'd expect.
• Checking out some sweet hoverboard tricks with Junior.
  Arin: Use your arms for balance, don't just flail arou-ohh no.
• "That's what this game's missing - a ripstik"
• Junior gets impaled by spikes right at the end - in more ways than one.
• The happy-go-lucky music that plays as they ride through an obstacle course of death.
• Dan asks why they'd implement such horrible death devices into a neighbourhood. Arin has the answer.
  Dan: "Why would you install these in your neighbourhood?! It's terrible for the community...
  Arin: "To keep the terrorists out.
• The Grumps are told they can make their own path to the end of a level. It doesn't go well.
  "Jimmy, today is the day you officially became James."
  "Today is the day you officially became AIRBOURNE!"
• Jimmy falls off of the bike. They decide to try and run him over.
• They make a sick jump over a mountain. Cue an arrow flying directly into John's head.
  • Made even funnier when the arrow-turret begins to continuously shoot arrows into John's corpse, causing it to explode... and the arrows keep coming.
• At the start of the next episode, Arin reveals he figured out how to eject from his seat. Hilarity ensues.
• They begin to use the tilting to jitter around the bike.
  Jimmy: "Dad, I feel sick..."
  John: "GOOD."
• The description and opening screenshot for "Warm Up".
  Dan: [reading the description] "Everything's gonna be fine."
  Arin: [looking at the screenshot] Oh, that's a cannon. It's pointed directly at me.
• They find a character called Larry — an old man using a jet-propelled lawn chair to fly around the course. To quote Arin, "This guy's a barrel o' laughs."
  "Hello, Mrs. Witherbee! How are you-" [jets burn 'Mrs. Witherbee'] "Sorry, I can't get control of it!"
  "Can I borrow some Nutmeg?"
  "Do you have any extra propane tanks-WHOA!"
  "Mrs. Witherbee! HELP!!"
  "WHOO!-" [explodes into pieces]
  "Mrs. Witherbee? I can't be sure, but I think something's wrong with my lawn chair..."
  "miiiiiisssses WITHERbee...heeeEEEEEEEllllllp..."
• They take an accidental upside-down picture of Larry's bloody remains.
• After they lose Jill, Dan and Arin find a replacement in a man they hit with the empty wagon attatched to Jack's bike.
• "Dad?"
  • "Where are you?? I'm blinded! Am I the Daredevil!?"
• "Speed. Momentum. Skills. Energy. Power. JIMMY."
• The Grumps try to stay on top of a platform. Cue random, unintelligable grunts of struggle.
• Arin's favourite part about the game? The violence towards children.
• "Mail's here!"
• Danny decides to end the episode by throwing some shade at Tobuscus .
  • Followed up swiftly by an "allegedly".
• "Is that my package- OH MY GOD!"
• "I FOUGHT IN KOREAAAAAAA!!"
• Watch in awe as Arin expertly threads the needle only through several high velocity death logs only to bonk his head on a completely stationary obstacle at the very end.
• Arin's newest character: Fappin' Bradley.
• Arin rediscovered the "steamed hams" meme, leading to:
  • "Mmm, steamed hams."
  • "What if I were to [x] and disguise it as my own [x]? Delightfully devilish, Arin."

Golf Story

• Never insult your editors. They will find out.
• Arin hits the ball as hard as he can into a golf tutor's head. He isn't even fazed.

House Party

• The Running Gag of Arin getting hypnotized by the Giger-esque painting on the wall.
• The Running Gag of Arin making player character charge around the house at breakneck speed, looking for what he needs, often while screaming in desperation and gasping for breath in a perverted manner.
• Episode 1:
  • In the opening screen, they're told that the male competition for the available women at the party looks "pretty weak"...except the first person they meet is Frank, causing Dan to exclaim in dismay, "That competition's not weak! Frank looks jacked and handsome!"
  • They meet a girl named Britney. When asked her name, she says "It's Britney." Danny adds "Bitch", then awkwardly explains he's not calling her a bitch, he's saying "It's Britney, bitch" as in Britney Spears.
• Episode 2:
  • Arin is looking at the menu.
    Arin: All right, apparently there's a "censor nudity" button.
    Danny: That's a good sign.
    Arin: Which is always a good sign.
    Danny: Yeah. [laughs] I noticed you didn't click it.
    [cut to Matt watching the footage with an exasperated look]
    ...
    Arin: I should probably click the Censor Nudity button.
    Danny: No! No! I want to see it. Fucking Matt and Ryan can do that shit.
    [cut to Matt with his head in his hands and an even more exasperated, broken look]
    • Danny says "Fuck you, Matt and Ryan!" The words "Fuck you, Danny" then appear on the screen.
  • Danny tells Arin to steal a speaker, so he does... right in front of the player character's friend, Derek, who knocks out the player character, causing a game over. Arin is not happy.
    Arin: YOU TOLD ME TO STEAL THE SPEAKER!!!
  • They meet Frank, a guy who looks an awful lot like Vin Diesel and really, really hates alcohol, to the point of beating the shit out of anyone with a drink (at a house party!), always starts conversations with "How's it goin', dude? Staying away from the alcohol?" Arin tells him another (stumbling drunk) character, Patrick, has booze, so he goes to kick his ass. Arin tries to talk to him again and he just says "How's it goin', dude?" When Arin tries to pick up the bottle of wine Patrick dropped, Frank sees this and chases after him. Cue the Grumps frantically trying to run away from Frank and him chasing them all over the house.
    Arin: He just follows you around, "How's it goin', dude", "How's it goin', dude", "How's it goin', dude"
• Episode 3:
  • They find out Derek's brother was doing meth. Derek also suggests they try to get on Frank's good side. One of the constant dialogue options for Derek is "Hey Amy said she's looking for you".
    Danny: Hey, Amy said she has some meth to sell you! [...] Frank, Patrick's dealing meth and Derek's really mad about it!
    • What makes this even funnier is Frank is a meth dealer and is the one who sold meth to Derek's brother. It's possible to get Derek to beat the shit out of Frank and knock him out for the rest of the party.
• Once the guys get completely confused about what to do, Danny incredulously asks if they seriously need a walkthrough for a house party. He then admits that if such a thing existed he would have done much better in high school.
• The Grumps tell Madison that Patrick is stealing her booze, resulting in him getting beaten up again. When she leaves, this happens:

  Arin and Danny: [in unison] Take your time.

  Danny: I have some shit to steal from your house.

  Arin: Ooh, a protractor! [Arin and Danny laugh] Just what I needed for my "Shit I Stole From Madison" collection!

  Danny: [giggling] "I see you up here making perfect right angles! What's going on?!"

  Arin: IDIDN'TSTEALYOURPROTRACTOR!

  • With childlike delight, the Grumps try to get Madison to beat up Patrick again while he's still unconscious. Sadly, it doesn't work.
  • They then get Frank to leave the room by saying that Patrick called him an "ass-licking fart monkey". When they talk to Katherine, they hear Patrick get beat up yet again offscreen.
    Arin: [as Patrick] WHY?! WHYYYY?!
• Episode 4:
  • While rummaging through the fridge:
    Dan: The chicken nuggets and the regular chicken?! (thoughtfully) I wonder if they knew each other in life.
  • While rummaging through the pantry, Arin drops a bag of potatoes, triggering a Call-Back to a Running Gag from their play-through of Doki Doki Literature Club!:
    Dan: "I dropped the potatoes" and Natsuki comes in like [Natsuki-voice] "omigod!"
  • When they try to give Frank a toaster:
    Arin: You want this toaster? [drops it at Frank's feet]
    Frank: [Beat as he slowly and silently looks down]
    [Arin and Dan laugh]
  • Frantically rummaging through the kitchen for coffee in the midst of the quest to romance Rachael, the Grumps spy Rachael dancing with her back to them in the next room. They pause long enough for Dan to shout "YOU'LL LOVE ME SOON, RACHAEL!" in passing before resuming rummaging even more frantically. It's a masterpiece of comic timing.
• Episode 5:
  • Arin and Danny are looking for Rachael and starts singing "Where is Rachael?" to the tune of "Frère Jacques," with the chorus being "Chicken nugs."
• Episode 7:
  • They have to send fake texts to Rachael framed as dares from her friend Vicki. The final dare is to get naked and masturbate somewhere private. The first time they find the door locked, since they were supposed to be hiding in the closet. The second time they get there first, but are caught and she walks away, but the audio starts playing her moans anyway.
    Danny: Now it's ghost masturbation happening.
• In episode 8, Arin is nonplussed to find that the player character can take his dick out:
  Arin: Wait, so my penis is out right now? [camera pans down to show a censored penis] Oh, sure is! [Danny laughs hysterically]
• They decided to romance a few more characters, resulting in an episode 9. And Danny still doesn't know what "reticulating splines" refers to.
• Dan mocks Arin as they discuss Frank's appearance in episode 10.
  Arin: He looks like a very clean nutsack.
  Dan: You don't keep your nutsack clean?
  Arin: Well I mean uh well I mean like—
  Dan: I would've just said he looks like a nutsack.
  Arin: I'm just saying nutsacks usually look a little wrinkly.
  Dan: "He looks like what I would imagine a nutsack to look like if mine wasn't constantly covered in dirt and feces!"
  Arin: No! It's like a—it's like a nutsack that got a facelift. [Dan starts cackling] Just a really clean, smooth nutsack.
  Dan: Bro. You think I haven't gone into like at least three doctors around Hollywood and asked for a sack-tightening?
  • Then they ask Frank what he thinks of Katherine:
  Frank: Dude, she's so hot. I'd give my left nut for a night with her.
  Arin: You mean your whole body?
  Dan [as Frank]: I'd give my whole nut-head for her.
• This:
  Madison: I tried to tell [Brittney] that nobody cares about her stupid boobs. I mean-
  Both Grumps: THEY'RE NOT STUPID!
• The Grumps lose the thread a little:
  Arin: Amy get in there and look at her boobs so I can talk to Madison and get a kiss so I can prove to Frank that I'm not gay so that I can romance Amy! I mean you!
  Dan: Oh my god I forgot that's what this whole thing is about!
• The ridiculously convoluted route into Amy's pants involves helping her with a scavenger hunt. One of the items for the scavenger hunt is a condom, which you can only get from Frank. Asking Frank for a condom will make him think you're coming onto him, leading to having to prove to him that you're straight by letting him catch you getting a blowjob from Ashley. The only way to do that is by putting Ashley's beer-splashed clothes through the washer and dryer while keeping the rest of the partygoers from seeing her naked, after which she will be so grateful she'll offer you a sexual favor. THEN you have to run back to Frank, lie about someone having booze, and organize a sting operation to catch the perpetrator. After that, you have one minute to entice Ashley into an upstairs bedroom, claim the "favor" from earlier, and wait for Frank to catch you in the act so he will know you're straight so he'll give you a condom, which you then give to Amy for the scavenger hunt, after which she'll like you enough to sleep with you. Arin puts in all the work and is in the middle of flagrante delicto with Ashley while waiting for Frank to arrive when the bedroom door opens and Amy walks in instead, immediately ending the quest and killing his chances with her as Arin lets out a genuinely heartfelt Big "NO!".
  • Arin's second run to the bedroom gets even more hysterical as he tries to shove Madison out of his way in the stairs.
    Arin: [pushes Madison away from the door] Get the fuck OUT OF HERE MADISON! GET OUT OF HERE MADISON!! GET THE FUCK OUT!!
    Dan: [laughs and reads the description of the bedroom's door] It appears to be locked.
    Arin: I SWEAR TO GOD YOU ARE NOT GETTING IN THAT BEDROOM!
    Dan: [laughs] She lives here!
    Arin: [closes the door, stands in front of Ashley] Blowjob! NOW!
    • Arin spends the duration of the blowjob desperately chanting Frank's name.
      Arin: Please, God, be Frank! Please be Frank!
      Dan: This is so much, like, your actual fantasy!
      Arin: Gaaaah! Where is Frank?!
  • When Frank arrives he exclaims "What the fuck, dude? My eyes! I'm gonna be scarred for life with this shit..." A few seconds later, Arin is able to talk to him while Ashley is blowing him. Guess what he says. Yep, it's "How's it goin', dude?"
    • Arin then continues to casually talk to Frank, successfully convincing him that he's not gay, while Ashley is still giving him a blowjob.
• In Episode 19, Arin starts voicing the main character like Gollum. Dan fucking loses it.
  Arin: (to Britney) Excuse me... Do you want Coca-Cola? The fridge is fully stocked. One second! *pants and sprints off*
• Episode 20 was supposed to be the final episode (so much so that it was briefly uploaded with a thumbnail reading "FINALE") but the ridiculously convoluted path into Amy's pants reached its final twist when the Grumps realize that they've inadvertently closed off a path to completing her quest (they were supposed to steal Ashley's undies during the laundry mission) and must summon an entirely new character in order to steal her underwear...which requires yet another multi-part quest to accomplish. The resignation in their voices when they realize they have to keep going is both heartbreaking and hilarious.
• Arin and Dan began a second round of Let's Plays of this game after they won a contest and got put into the game as characters, so we get to see them making the player character talk to the in-game versions of themselves. The in-game story involves them using a cell phone jammer to make in-game Arin and Dan land at the house party in a hot air balloon instead of a Game Grumps Live show that Katherine was initially going to.
  • At one point, the in-game Arin character gets hypnotized by that painting; at another, he speaks in his "Gollum" voice, and at yet another, he references a Mario Maker conversation he had with Dan about his social anxiety at parties.
• In Episode 4 of their second round at House Party, they complete new character Leah's quest line. Leah is studying under Frank and finds out he's been leading her on to falsely make her believe he's going to help her open a self-defense studio. In an attempt to apologize to Leah, Frank winds up entangled with a pet snake at the party and the player is forced to team up with Leah to save him. Frank's first line upon the player noticing him with the snake?

  Frank: Too squeezy for my neck it fuckin' huuuuuuurts.

  • After successfully rescuing Frank, the real-life Arin and Dan are rewarded with self-defense training from Leah, allowing them to beat Frank up - and the resulting beatdown apparently turns Leah on enough for her to want to have sex with the player right there in the garage. The resulting activity is censored with a giant image of a Bible as Arin panics while looking around the garage to find things to talk about.
    • Afterwards, Arin forgets to put the player's clothes back on and winds up walking back into the party fully nude, only realizing when Katherine scolds him, prompting an incredibly heartfelt "Oh... NOOOO!!!" from Arin.
  • At the end of the episode, they witness Rachel talking to in-game Arin, with Rachel implying she found some sex toys in Ashley's room and in-game Arin giving a completely weird response:
    Rachel: Don't tell anybody, but I definitely went snooping around Ashley's room. And I found some pretty, uh, shall we say, "penetrative" things.
    In-Game Arin: (In "Joke Yoda" voice) Mmm! What kind of car would Boba Fett drive? (Both real life Grumps break into laughter)
    Real-Life Dan: (While laughing) You socially-awkward piece of shit.
• Part 6. Frank wants to join the "D Club" and wonders if they have club t-shirts.
  • The conversation Arin and Frank have about the D Club results in the two retreating into a closet so Frank can join in. When the closet opens, Arin and Frank are making out.
    • A meta example: a Heartwarming Moment earlier in the second round revealed that Dan turned down the option to have an in-game romance with his favourite character Rachael, out of respect for his real-life girlfriend. Cut to Arin—who, let's not forget, is Happily Married—getting his own romance route with Frank of all people. Many fans were quick to point out the contrast between their hilariously different attitudes. As one YouTube commenter put it (in the top-scoring comment on the episode, no less):
    Dan: I didn't want them to add dialogue of me flirting with Rachel out of respect for my girlfriend.
    Arin: SUZY, I'M MAKING OUT WITH FRANK!
• In "Vickie's Homemade Bone Broth Recipe":
  • Arin has to increase his sexual stamina to complete the Vickie quest. His means of doing this is by repeatedly getting blowjobs from Frank, with the Grumps imagining Frank getting more annoyed and resigned every time they ask him.
  • Once they finally get a successful moment with Vickie, Frank comes running after them, knowing the player raided his booze stash and planning to beat him up. This results in a hilariously awkward angle where the player sits in the hot tub, Vickie sucking them off and Frank staring over them from above.
  • In this episode, the Grumps learn to utilize cheat codes. Before the episode ends, Arin insists on using codes on Frank to enlarge his head, feet, pecs, and ass, making him look like a bobblehead with big boobs and Hartman Hips. Then this version of Frank starts chasing the player, and the Grumps are too busy cracking up to be afraid.

A Way Out

• Right off the bat, Arin and Danny make it so one of the playable prisoners has a crush on the other player character.
• In episode 3, Danny starts voicing his character, Leo, with a hispanic accent (virtually the same voice he used for Cortez in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door). Partway through episode 4, he randomly switches to the voice for Jean-Eric from Endless Ocean 2: Blue World and back to Cortez.
• The Running Gag of the two characters loudly announcing their plans to break out of prison so loudly that it echoes.
  • Similarly in part 6, where they actually do their escape under the cover of a thunderstorm. Within the game, Leo tells Vincent that there's a storm coming, and that's their time to make a break for it. With Arin and Danny controlling them?
    Danny (as Leo): Did you hear about the weather? It's going to be raining tonight.
    Danny (as Vincent): WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
    Danny (as Leo): IT MEANS WE'RE ESCAPING FROM PRISON! FROM PRISON! FROM PRISON!
    • Danny mentions later that he imagines that scene accompanied with camera angles of the rest of the prison with birds flying away and everyone else in the prison turning towards them with wide eyes.
  • In a level where the two have to smuggle a wrench back to their cell, Arin and Danny have the characters loudly deny that they have a wrench without prompting.
  • An offshoot of this Running Gag is one where Leo and Vincent express surprise at how hard breaking out of prison is.
• Another Running Gag is where Arin notices that the game takes a lot of cues from The Shawshank Redemption (as the aforementioned thunderstorm might have indicated). Accordingly, Arin and Danny have a character lampshade the similarities while the other gets annoyed and tells him to shut up about it.
• "Look at us, a couple of cards."
• When Leo's being obstructed by a guard:
  Danny!Leo: Listen, maybe you don't understand. If I don't get access to that backroom, I'm never going to be able to escape this prison.
• Leo wondering if they'll get in trouble for being in the warden's office. He can forge his parents' signature if they do.
  • Vincent pretending to be the warden for a quick laugh.
• Man, being a warden is a lot nicer than being a prisoner.
• After an accident involving a makeshift zipline, Leo and Vincent get caught and have to make a frantic break for it while sirens blare and snipers shoot to kill. Once they're out of shooting distance of the prison...
  Arin (as a guard): Huh. Must've been a squirrel.
• There's a momentary break between gameplay segments where Vincent and Leo are in a plane. Once it cuts back to gameplay, Danny complains about spoilers.
• At the end of part 7, Arin flicks the control stick wildly to make it look like Vincent is having some sort of freak-out. When Danny gets Leo down to the same location Arin is, he starts doing it too, all while they both improv as Leo and Vincent freaking out over it being contagious.
• In Part 8, Arin and Danny notice that Leo has Elmuh Fudd Syndwome and voices accordingly.
• When a walkway collapses:
  Leo: What happened?
  Danny: What do you fucking think happ—-a dragon came.
  Arin: (loses it)
• The Running Gag in part 9 in which Leo's son Alex is a helicopter.
  Arin (As Alex): Dad? (Helicopter noises)
  • It extends into a Running Gag for the whole series. According to Danny, all the children in this universe are helicopters.
• During a level where Arin is driving while Dan is shooting, a cutscene plays of the truck careening off the road. Dan proceeds to blame Arin for the accident.
• Part 12:
  • Danny makes a joke about Leo being a Talkative Loon.
    Leo: It's always been us^note Him and his wife, Linda against the world. Still is.
    Danny!Leo: I've got a bionic arm!
    • When the scene ends:
      Danny!Leo: Thanks. (beat) My legs are made of lasers.
      (Arin cracks)
      Arin-as-Leo: Pewpewpew. That's the sound they make. Not right now, but when they laser.
  • They find more sidequests and mini games to keep occupied while the other advances the plot.
    • One sidequest is telling a woman, Martha, with a baseball bat where to find her cheating husband. This unlocks the "No Cheating" achievement.
      Arin: (as Martha attacks her husband) Ah, domestic abuse.
      Danny: Yay!
      Arin: So funny. (Vincent turns and slowly walks away) Weeeell, I'm gonna...
  • They can play basketball with Leo's son.
    • Danny passes the ball to Arin by chucking it away from Arin.
      Danny: I'm gonna pass it to you. Damnit. Wow, we're just as good at this as real life basketball.
    • Arin picks up the ball and passes it to Alex. Danny steals it.
      Alex: Daddy, pass it to me!
      Danny: No! Fuck you, I'm dunking! (dunks the ball)
      Arin: In your face! In your face, little bitch!
    • Leo has to leave Alex again. Danny suggests they play football.
      Danny: You hold the ball, I'll run. Ten states away.
• Part 13:
  • The pair find an opportunity to arm wrestle while investigating a construction site. It quickly turns very competitive.
    Danny: Oh God, that was not worth it at all.
    Arin: No, without a doubt, not worth it. Holy fuck, ow, my arm!
    Danny: That was as painful as real arm wrestling.
  • While chasing another character, Danny gets a quicktime event to jump over a gap.
    Danny: X! (falls to his death) Damnit.
    Arin: Did you die?
    Danny: I hit square instead of X.
  • "You're not a very good supervisor! There, I said it!"
  • When the chase takes a turn and the camera angle shifts, Arin starts humming "Yakety Sax".
  • [punch, punch] "Start talking!"
  • The entire time Dan (as Leo) is interrogating Ray, Arin (as Vincent) is calmly collecting every torture implement from their surroundings and gently placing them at Leo's feet.
• Part 14:
  • Mocking the hilariously incompetent cop who responds to the gas station robbery.
    Dan: Dispatch, this is Johnson! Not only did I not apprehend the criminals, but I immediately crashed my car!
    Arin: I deserve a promotion! Please respond. (they laugh their asses off)
  • While buying weapons from Jasmine, Danny and Arin have a lot of fun testing out the guns in the safest manner possible.
    Arin: I'm going to stand in the way of your bullets, is that okay?
    Danny: [firing his shotgun at the building Arin's in] Vincent, does this go through the walls? Tell me if it goes through the walls!
• Another recurring gag surfaces whenever Arin or Danny converse with a random side character and the idle one walks into the splitscreen view of the first player, as if trying to butt into the conversation. Alternatively, turning towards the camera like "Can you believe this fucking guy?"
  • At one point, Arin creates his own Funny Background Event by having Vincent walk up to and stare at a wall while Leo is having a conversation.
• Part 16:
  • Arin and Danny make it clear they would be terrible parents.
    Danny (as Vincent holds his newborn daughter for the first time): Can I shake her?
    (Arin loses it)
    Vincent: She's so beautiful...
    Danny!Vincent: So...shakeable...
  • Danny flubs another QTE, bringing the tense action sequence that preceded it to a grinding halt as he's forced to start again. The funniest thing about it is the way Leo's body ragdolls as he falls. It looks like he suddenly has no bones and his neck starts to sink into his shoulder, but that's sadly all we see before the game resets itself.
  • When the Big Bad of the game Harvey demands more men, Arin proposes that his mooks jerk off the guy they are holding prisoner and use his sperm to fertilize some eggs and create more men.
• Part 18:
  • They encounter a sniper. Arin ambushes him and take the rifle.
    Arin: Now I'm the sniper!
    Danny: What's your sniper name gonna be? [gets shot climbing a ladder] Ow. Mine's gonna be "Rowdy Roddy Sniper".
    Arin: Mine's gonna be "Wesley Snipes".
  • Danny finds a dead mook who fell in a weird way.
    Danny: (laughing) I'm just looking at this guy!
    Arin: (in his Luigi voice) Oh, this is not how I wanted my day to go.
    Danny: When I woke up in the morning, I said, "Pablo, today is just not going to be your day."
    Arin: Guess who was right. I put on my lucky basketball shirt just to be sure.
  • Arin shoots an enemy. Danny comes up with a Bond One-Liner.
    Danny: Do you have a minute to talk about Jesus? Because you're about to meet him in a second!
• Part 19:
  • Danny points out how the game is becoming reminiscent of the ending to Scarface (which Arin hasn't seen), with the mansion and pool. Then they enter the mansion and Harvey shows up in a white suit on a stairway. Danny declares "This is Scarface."
  • After shooting Harvey until he falls in the pool, Danny wishes they had done a terrible Bond One-Liner:
    Dan: Looks like he, dead is uh, ah, uh, in the water!
    Arin: Looks like he painted the town red!
    Dan: He's uhh, uh, (incoherent stuttering) s-swimming uh. [they both crack up]
    • Which leads to an extended gag of Leo and Vincent spending an entire motorcycle chase struggling to come up with a better one.
  • And then, this happens.
• The finale:
  • Leo and Vincent end up going toe to toe in a shootout and get separated. Arin and Danny end up being confused by where they are and where the other player is...only for them to run right into each other.
    Arin: I don't know where I am.
    Danny: I don't know where I am either.
    (Their respective characters enter each other's screens)
    Arin: Oh, hello!
    (Both Grumps lose it)
• Arin beatboxes again...while moving Vincent back and forth instead of aiming the gun at a heavily weakened Leo.
  • Danny's reactions to the Battle in the Rain combined with Arin's jokes. He's emotionally distraught, but can't stop laughing. Like most of the audience, probably.
• Due to the Battle in the Rain being a quicktime event, both Arin and Danny take their sweet-ass time with each button prompt.
  Danny!Leo (when prompted to punch Vincent): I'm gonna punch you! I'm gonna do it, Vincent, I'm gonna punch you! I SWEAR TO GOD VINCENT I'M GONNA PUNCH YOU! I'M PUNCHING YOU!
  Arin-as-Vincent [when prompted to aim and shoot at Leo] Mmmaybe nooot...but MAY—nah...BUT MAYBE? Nah...MAYBE? Nah...(begins aforementioned beatbox as he backs and forths between aiming and not aiming)
  • When the game flashes back to Vincent holding his daughter after he gets punched:
  Danny!Leo: I hope your baby felt that!
  • "R...Right foot green..."
• Vincent goes to meet Linda during the epilogue. He brought condoms.
  • Linda asks Vincent what happened to Leo and...
    (sad music starts)
    Arin-as-Vincent: (sings) He's deeeeeaad...
    Dan: (starts laughing)
  • Vincent later reunites with his wife and newborn daughter. It's an extremely emotional scene which ends with Vincent walking away only for Carol to invite him inside.
    Arin-as-Vincent: Yes! These condoms aren't going to waste!
  • From the same above scene:
    Vincent: I'm sorry...
    Carol: I know you are.
    Danny!Carol: But what am I?
    (Arin cracks)

God of War (2018)

• The very premise of this sequel is that Kratos is now fighting Norse Gods because he ran out of Greek Gods to fight. Arin and Dan are amused because that's the exact premise of their Starbomb song about Kratos.
• They imagine Kratos is secretly a Coldplay fan.

  "PLAY CLOCKS!"

• Arin spends half of the fight with the Stranger getting needlessly slapped around because he forgot he could block. As soon as he remembers it, the Stranger, with perfect timing, taunts, "Forget how to use your shield?"

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon

• Arin pretends to not be interested in a party member and skip them, only to discover he actually can. Fortunately, he quickly discovers the Curse of the Moon... which means he'll have to do the second stage all over again.

Detroit: Become Human

• "Fuck you, welcome to Game Grumps."
• The running gag of them turning Connor into an extreme Captain Obvious.
• Arin focuses on Connor's coin in the opening chapter and assumes the game takes place in 1994. Despite the game itself saying it's 2038.
• "Initiating (blank) protocol."
• Kara is introduced immediately after being repaired and reset after an accident. The reason given in-universe? A car hit her. When Arin and Danny are in the drivers' seat? Todd peed on her. Then they immediately backtrack and insist that a car peed on her.
• At one point during A New Home, Arin berates Kara for snooping through Alice's belongings. Dan is quick to point out that Arin's controlling what she does.
• Whenever it's in shot, they don't pass up the opportunity to comment on Markus' ass.
• When Carl encourages Markus to paint something, he initially chooses (under Arin's influence) to paint a copy of Carl's new painting. Carl gently persuades him to try again, this time with his eyes closed. Dan believes that Markus would just paint another exact replica of Carl's painting.
• During a tense chase sequence playing as Kara, Dan randomly suggests that she should t-pose to assert her dominance over the assailant.
• After learning that deviants self-destruct when placed under too much stress, Danny and Arin have a lot of fun imagining the androids exploding at the slightest provocation.
  Dan: (impersonating Connor) WHY'D YOU KILL HIM?! (mimics the sound of both Connor and the deviant HK400 exploding)
• Every single time it comes up during the Fugitives chapter, Arin and Dan keep saying that sleeping in the car would be followed immediately by death.
• The action prompts can occasionally be vague or misleading, as they're typically just one word. Arin is particularly confused by one prompt labelled "Remove" with no other context, which he immediately guesses means "Remove Alice's skin".
  • Ironically, you may have to remove Alice's human skin later on if you make certain choices.
• Whenever Arin has to open a door or perform some other inane task to advance the story, he keeps deliberately failing the required movement of the analogue stick in order to make the animation play in reverse as the character he's playing as reverts to a neutral pose. This is often accompanied by robotic noises or Scatting courtesy of Dan and/or Arin himself.
• Connor calmly enters the DPD at the beginning of Waiting for Hank... but Dan believes he's not there for Hank.
  Dan-as-Connor: (calmly) This is a robbery.
• "I don't wanna fuck my chances with Hank, though. I wanna fuck Hank! What are my chances?"
  • "Dude, this isn't House Party."
• Apparently, the Grump's version of RK800 specializes not in police investigation, but in busting balls.
• Upon Hank checking the hotel room and declaring the deviant is gone, Arin (as Connor) suggests checking under the bed.
• Markus trying to blend in with humanity with questionable results.
• While in an apartment with no apparent lifeforms dwelling in it except for hundreds of pigeons, Connor scans a stool and notes that it's covered in avian fecal matter. Arin's response?
  Arin: Yeah, no shit. Oh, actually, there is shit.
  Dan: Yeah, it's...it's bird shit.
  • Immediately followed by Dan saying that "Avian Fecal Matter" would be A Good Name for a Rock Band.
• Throughout the livestreams, I Know What Boys Like by The Waitresses becomes somewhat of a Running Gag, from the stream starting off by someone accidentally playing it to Dan deciding to play it in retaliation to Zlatko attempting to reset Kara's memory.
• When meeting the cryptic Lucy for the first time, she reads Markus' future for him through a riddle. It's a rather dramatic scene, even though the riddle doesn't rhyme. Dan makes do.
  Lucy: A part of shadow and a part of light...
  Dan: A part of sadness and a part of fright. I do not want green eggs and ham!
  Arin: (laughing) Are you Sam?! Sam-I-Am?!
• The whole time when Kara and Alice are fleeing from Zlatko, Danny keeps playing I Know What Boys Like at inopportune moments, such as when they're trying to go unnoticed.
  Dan: As long as we stay perfectly silent...(I Know What Boys Like starts playing loudly) Dammit!
• The most that they remember about The Nest is the pigeons, and the large amount of literal crap that came with them. They make it such that it bleeds into Connor's thoughts on the entire situation.
  Dan-as-Connor: I read his diarrheaaa? (nervous laughter)
  Dan: Amanda's thing goes down.
  (Arin and Dan both burst out laughing)
  Arin-as-Amanda: I thought I programmed you to be better than this.
  • Connor remarks on Hank's perceived gratitude that he was rescued on the rooftop. He says that Hank didn't vocalise it, but "expressed it in his own way," which Dan manages to extrapolate into Hank having flipped him off and pushed him off the roof.
• Arin appears to be aware that Connor is the game's residential Launcher of a Thousand Ships, because he applies that fact to some of his improv'd dialogue for Amanda. Dan picks up and runs with it, too.
  Arin-as-Amanda: Did [Hank] kiss you? Tumblr would go wild if that happened.
  Connor: I will solve this investigation, Amanda.
  Dan-as-Connor: Regardless of how many people I have to kiss!
  Arin-as-Connor: I'll kiss 'em all, I say!
  Arin-as-Amanda: I expect you to.
  Dan-as-Amanda: I programmed you to know what boys like.
• Connor ends up needing to put an absolutely plastered Hank in the shower to sober him up. Doing this requires Connor to push him into the tub, but it won't happen until the analogue stick is moved. Naturally, Arin doesn't move it until he's gotten plenty of Ho Yay out of the fact that Connor's hand is gently resting on Hank's chest.
  • Hannah, their friend behind the scenes, describes this part of the game as "like, the weirdest romantic comedy."
• While Markus is making a dramatic, rousing speech to the few members of Jericho still functioning, Arin and Dan can only make fun of the stilted facial animations of the androids standing behind him. It looks less like they're cheering and more like they're speaking gibberish or trying really hard to do a horse impression.
• Arin making Connor stare at a pole-dancing male Traci at the start of Eden Club under the guise of "investigating" the routine.
• Someone in the chat declares that they quoted Dan for their senior quote. This prompts Hannah to ask them if they had senior quotes, and if they remember what they chose. Dan's was: "Jesus is coming. Look busy."
• During Stratford Tower, Markus and North break into a secured room and cut a hole through the window so that they can access a window cleaning lift. Thanks to the Unspoken Plan Guarantee, Dan doesn't know what's happening and entertains the idea that they're doing it to break out of the place that they just broke into without doing anything.
  Arin-as-North: Did you get the info?
  Arin-as-Markus: What?
  • Simon gives Markus a mysterious canister, and once again due to being clueless as to what the plan actually is, the Grumps decide that they're going to write "ANDROIDS RULE, HUMANS DROOL" all over the walls of the room and broadcast it to the whole city.
• This.
  Simon: Markus, your face...
  Arin: It sucks.
  Dan: It's gross.
• Simon ends up injured and left behind on the roof of Stratford Tower, but Markus gives him a gun to defend himself. Or kill himself. Whatever works.
• Markus discovering right as he jumps off the roof that instead of parachutes or wingsuits, they actually brought backpacks.
• Arin getting...er, "excited" to play more of the game. The words "plot wiener" are mentioned right next to each other, that's all that needs to be said.
• Dan says that "Plot Wiener" is his favorite name for an indie band. Later followed up by "Third Taco" as well.
• Kara and her family take refuge in the home of Rose, an android sympathizer, and Kara ends up having to survive a policeman entering the house to question her. Just as the officer is about to leave, other deviants being helped by Rose end up making noise in the next room by accident, which Kara covers up by blaming the washing machine. Dan and Arin both immediately jump to pretending the other deviants are doing bad washing machine impressions to sell the lie. Leads up to them pretending that as soon as the cop leaves, fifty androids come rushing out to ask if he's gone.
• "I'm the Jesus machine boy!"
• Markus' exaggerated panicking when North throws a pair of bolt cutters towards him.
• They don't waste any time painting Kamski as the creepy rich dude he is. Naturally, they immediately take it up to eleven (while somehow making sense in context!).
  "Just having a four-way with triplets in the blood pool!"
• "I'M GONNA FUCK YOU, HANK. MARK MY WORDS!"
• Markus' part of Crossroads begins with Josh, North and Simon pacing around Jericho's control room in tense silence. It's an intense establishing scene, until you remember that this is Game Grumps, and they instantly make a joke about everyone pacing around uncomfortably because Markus is interrogating them about who farted. Bearing in mind that they're all androids with no capacity to expel gas in that way.
• Markus is getting in on the Ho Yay now, too.
  Josh: What's the point of being free if no one is left alive?
  Arin-as-Markus: Do you want to kiss or not?!
  (...)
  Markus: Maybe my judgement was clouded by...
  Dan-as-Markus: ...how badly I wanted to kiss you.
• Connor and Markus finally face off against each other. Arin pauses the game in a panic because he really doesn't want to mess it up, so everyone turns to the chat for help. Danny declares that the only advice he's seeing in the chat is "kiss."
• Allie remarks that CyberLife Tower looks very phallic. Dan immediately chastises her for it, asks her to get her mind out of the gutter, and says that it looks like a buttplug.
• Arin says that the game would be better if Kara talked like a Valley Girl the whole time.
• The climax of Markus' story takes place somewhere called Hart Plaza. If you misread that the first time, you're not the first to do so.
  Dan-as-Markus: Everyone! What if this was called H— Fart Plaza?
  Dan-as-Deviant: (ineffectually) Good one, Markus...
  Arin-as-Deviant: (equally disinterested) Yeah Markus, awesome.
  Dan-as-Markus: Like fart instead of Hart?
  Arin-as-Deviant: (annoyed) Yeah, we get it Markus. It's great.
• Hank pours his heart out to Connor while trying to tell him apart from another identical RK800, even going so far as to confess that every time Connor died and got replaced with another Connor, it reminded him that his son was gone forever and could never be brought back. It's an extremely raw and touching moment. One might be able to argue that the impostor RK800 abruptly interjecting adds something to the scene, but to the Grumps it's just too sudden and desperate to be anything but comedic.
• Markus proudly declares that the revolution was won for now, and that humans will have no choice but to listen to androids. Arin jokes about Markus' eyes turning red as hard rock starts playing and the goal of the game suddenly changing to "kill all humans" despite the fact that they've been pacifists the entire time.
• When North and Markus have their Big Damn Kiss, Josh and Simon's reactions both seem to be "God, I wish that were me."
• They pause the game again to consult the chat for help, but all they can see initially is at least one person saying "robot orgy" and a bunch of people telling Connor to kiss Amanda.
• At the end of everything, Dan insistently mispronounces David Cage as David Cah-gay.

Monster Prom

• When Arin gets his first event with Vera and Scott (a character who he voices in-game):
  Arin-as-Scott: Hey Vera, you're mean, right?
  Danny: Arin, I don't think you're qualified to voice that guy.
• Whenever talking to or about Polly, Dan switches between,
  • gushing about her with extreme confidence,
    Danny: Oh, I'm gonna put a baby in you.
  • ...and acting like an incredibly awkward schoolboy.
    Polly: Hey, you got my text! That's good, cause I need some help brainstorming.
    Danny: Y-yeah whatever you need, Polly.
• When Arin's character, Fred, bumps into Polly outside of school:
  Danny: I swear to God, Arin, if you snake my girl I'm gonna strangle you. (when Polly asks Fred if Danny's character would be any good in the sack) I'm not gonna sugar-coat this: our friendship rides on what you choose right now.
  • Then, when the situation is reversed, Danny naturally toys with the idea of sabotaging Fred's chances with Vera. (He doesn't go through with it.)
• Danny reads the Coven's lines in a stereotypical old-crone voice.
  Arin: They're in high school.
  Danny: (ignores him) We're the ones who-
  Arin: She's not, like, 78!
• Danny's voice for Vera gets progressively slower and more distorted, and Arin decides that it's because she is melting.
• The Interdimensional Prince tries to "talk business" with Vera.
  Danny-as-Vera: Business, you say? I'm all ears. Except for my snakes, which are all tongues and teeth. They cover my ears.
  Arin-as-Prince: ...Okay, well, it's simple economics, my love.
  Danny-as-Vera: Ssspeak up! There are layers of snakes around my ears.
  Arin-as-Prince: YOU'RE AN ASPIRING CRIME KINGPIN, I'M A PRINCE.
• One of the challenges for determining turn order has both players pick something bad, and then debate how badass a criminal called "Mike 'the (selected item)' Johnson" would be. Danny chose Michael Jackson, leading to the absolutely ridiculous "Mike 'the Michael Jackson' Johnson".
• When Dan's character and Polly Geist are starting to get close:
  Polly: You're like the best science partner I've ever had!
  Dan-as-Polly: You're like a really good friend.
  [Arin laughs his ass off]
  Arin-as-Polly: And like whenever I'm with you, it feels like we're in a zone!
  [Both Grumps lose it]
• In the endgame, Arin's character crashes and burns with Vera, while Danny's has a successful but (surprisingly) chaste date with Polly. Danny is disappointed at the lack of Sexy Results.
  Danny: Is there, like, a more hot and heavy version?
  Arin: There's like a thousand endings.
  Danny: That's what I mean.
  Arin: But no, you don't, like, fuck or anything.
  Danny: Well, then what the hell have we been doing this for? Jesse! Put in a fuck-program-option, or else I'm not gonna recommend this to friends.

911 Operator

• Part 2's comment section, which is filled with people expressing joy and relief that Arin isn't a 911 operator in Real Life.
• Arin turns the speed to the fastest setting, then forgets about it and complains everything is going too fast.

Dead or Alive Xtreme 3: Venus Vacation

• They're playing this one despite the game being entirely in Japanese, and neither of them being able to read much of it. Not to worry, Dan's come prepared: thanks to the Google Translate app, he can hold up his phone camera and translate the game's text "into some form of English". Translation Train Wreck doesn't begin to cover it—apparently the result it spits out for a given sentence is constantly changing in real time.
• In Part 3, Dan brings back bad memories for Arin.
  Danny: *In Helena's voice* Hm... Could you let me think about it?
  Arin: Dude, you're like, triggering me right now. I don't want to think about that.
• Arin gives the background music his own lyrics.

Super Bunny Man

• In the opening episode:
  • They start a Running Gag of Tempting Fate when Arin grabs a carrot and then promptly falling to his death just after saying "I almost got it!"
  • Arin dies by falling into some spikes and Dan says he'll do some scouting. He promptly rolls onto the same spikes.
    Dan: There's spikes, Arin. Be careful.
  • A little later, he comments that there's an easy carrot there, before overshooting the carrot and landing on some spikes.
  • Arin saves himself from falling to his doom, and Dan comments that:
    Dan: I didn't die from the spikes! (Arin promptly dies from said spikes.)
    Dan: Okay...
• From the third episode:
  • Arin remarks how they immediately got better and then starts flailing around trying to get over a obstacle, at which Dan remarks to "Arin... Could you please not extol the virtues of your greatness while sucking balls!"
  • This bit:
    Arin: Fuck it, I'm goin' for it. I don't need your help on any of...(rolls onto spikes and Dan laughs.)
    Dan: Any more shit-talking you want to get out of your system?
• Episode 4:
  • Arin says they've just been dicking around before and that they'll start playing seriously. Seconds later he dies from some spikes.
  • Dan says he's going to practice for a little bit. He lands on spikes a second later.
    Dan: Perfect.
• In Episode 1 of their 2nd session, Dan says "This might work, actually!" You can guess what happens.
  Dan: Wait, actually though! Actually, though! (both die on spikes.
  Dan: Actually, though!
• In episode 3:
  • Arin says "God, I'm awesome!" after grabbing a carrot and then falls down a pit seconds later.
  • Arin tries to tell Dan how to long jump over some spikes, before, of course, landing on the spikes.
    Dan: Teach me, oh master.
• Episode 4:
  • It starts with a new Avenger, Homie Slice Man.
  • This bit after Arin screwed up a couple times:
    Arin: We're only as fast as the weakest link or whatever.
    Dan: Who might that be?
    Arin: (Defensively) I don't know!
    Arin: (Proceeds to fling himself onto some spikes and then his corpse gets crushed by a giant boulder). Aargh!
    Dan: Some guy, probably Jeremy.
• Episode 6 could probably be summed up as "Dan or Arin says something confident only for something bad to happen immediately":
  • It starts with them saying that them saying level 24 is much easier than level 23. Cue them dying repeatedly to a small patch of spikes right at the beginning.
  • After clearing level 24 pretty handily, they decide to go back into it to get the carrot and Dan remarks that they're making progress. Cue more deaths from the small patch of spikes noted above.
  • Arin helps Dan move along and then says the following:
    Arin: That's called teamwork! (Dan gets hit by a boulder and falls down a pit. Both laugh at the comedic timing.).
  • Arin progresses a little too far accidentally and waits for Dan:
    Arin: (Dan clears some spikes) Yo, you good.
    Dan: (silly voice) You know what, I am good! Weee! (Gets hit by a boulder and falls down a pit, with both laughing once again.)
  • This bit after Dan bumps Arin:
    Arin: Dude, your fuckin' messin' with my Goddamn steez! (Jumps on a spring and gets impaled head-first on spikes)
    Dan: *laughs and then jumps across the pit that Arin died on.*
    Arin: Oh, that's perfect! (Dan gets impaled through the had by a falling stalagtite)
  • Late in the episode they start to lose it a bit.
• In Episode 7, after they get the carrot after a lot of trouble, Arin asks Dan if he can trust him with it, with Dan not knowing. Soon after asking, Dan gets stuck. Arin sighs and says "Oh lord." and tries to go to help Dan, but immediately does a bad jump and falls down a bottomless pit.
  Dan: I like how we always barely have enough time to comment on our friend blowing it before we blow it ourselves. That's a classic move for us.
• After Arin finds a way to knock a stalagtite away to make it easier for them to get the carrot, he comments "With my patented technique..." and then gets impaled by the stalagtite.

Doodle Date

• This game is a dating simulator where you draw the object of your affections, as well as other props and characters. The fact that Egoraptor is the one providing the artistic talent should tell you how much of a laugh riot this series is.
• When Arin is asked to draw a waiter, his depiction initially starts out with the design you'd expect...only to take a sharp left turn. The waiter also flirts with Danny.
• When Arin is asked to draw a fancy outfit for Danny, he, upon Danny's request, draws a tuxedo top and thong. Danny wasn't too found of his pubic hair being drawn, however.
  • Fittingly, the game's script has Claire immediately advise Danny to wear something else.
• At one point, Arin voices Claire with his "only eggs can sustain me" demonic voice, then switches back to his default girl voice.
• When asked to draw a sexy Claire, Arin, surprisingly, takes it completely seriously and draws a genuinely cute and sexy image of a seductive Claire. He then draws people crowding around a window in the background, gawking at her.
• As Arin draws sexy Claire, Danny notices a funny Steam notification pop up:
  Danny: EPIC SEX GAY is now playing Guilty Gear! (both Grumps crack up) Wow! Good for him!
• When Claire gets pregnant, Arin makes their baby look like Homer Simpson.
  • Again, the game's script has Claire describe their baby as an abomination of nature.
• When Claire attempts to murder Danny, Arin is asked to draw a weapon for Danny to defend himself with. The result is a tank with machine guns attached to the side, a T-rex riding on the back, and Arin in the cockpit throwing dynamite.
  • Danny then stabs Claire with the weapon...somehow.
• Long after Claire's death, Danny suddenly has a surprise visitor. It's his newborn child, Homer Simpson.
  Baby: Hello, Father.
  • Danny's child then kills him with the previously created weapon by stabbing him in the back. Again, how?
  Dan: Oh, my God! I was stabbed by Homer Simpson!

Garfield: Threat of the Space Lasagna

• After they finished a minigame where Garfield has to kick away mice that grab on his body, they have a discussion on Garfield's relationship with his owner Jon.
  Arin: Doesn't Garfield eat mice?
  Danny: Uhhhhh... I can't remember... no, he eats lasagna.
  Arin: Ah.
  Dan: And he hates Mondays.
  Arin: Who makes the lasagna for him?
  Dan: Jon.
  Arin: Why is Jon enabling him?
  Dan: Ugh... uh... because he's a fucking cuck!
  Both: (laugh)
  Arin: Oh, that got me... just too fucking...
  Arin: Please... let Garfield say that to him one time: (in Garfield voice) "Because you're a fucking cuck!"
• Arin's impression of the game's bad-sounding Garfield voice, comparing it to a no-talented YouTuber doing a video of cartoon voices.
• Reproduce Garfield's movements.
• Their rendition of the hectic music during the truck food challenge.

Mega Man 11

• In part 5, Dr. Light has a revelation.
  Dr. Light: Oh! I almost forgot something very important!
  Dan-as-Dr. Light: I'll be pronouncing your name "Me-Gay Man" from now on!
• Dan mistakes the soundtrack in Bounce Man's stage for "Yankee Doodle Dandy."
• A joke about a derpy background pyramid in Block Man's stage is funny on its own. What makes it even funnier is that the Grumps pulled up the EXACT SAME TOPIC at the EXACT SAME SPOT when playing the stage in the demo.
• "Power Gear! SCABADIGOOBER!"
• During Fuse Man's stage, Dan brings up the idea of Sonic going too far.
  Dan-as-Sonic: What are you, disabled!
  Dan: What the FUCK, Sonic?!
• In the finale:
  Arin as Dr. Wily: Can't take the heat? Ahahaha, I'm so funny. My mother says I'm funny.
  Dan as Wily: Do you want to be my mother?

Kitty Love

• Arin tries to name the main character "Carl Weathers". However, thanks to the seven-character limit and Arin getting the surname and given name text boxes mixed up, the name ends up being "weather carl". Given the rest of the game, it's strangely appropriate.
• The narration is made only more Narmy by the incredibly mangled English translation, which gets both of them giggling every other sentence. For example, when trying to say "but during the weekday", the game reads "buttering the weekday".
• Arin characterizes weather carl as being completely helpless when there's no other employees in the flower shop she works at.
  Game: (phone ringing in flower shop)
  Arin as weather carl: Phone!
• Their characterization of Saijo (the man they decide to romance) as becoming increasingly obsessed with bathing and wiping the main character while she's cursed to be a white cat (yep, that's the plot).
• "I looked down at my foot and there was a TWO cat feet!"
• "I just turn you to cat as you wish. But you can only be a at at night" sends Dan into hysterics.
• After the black cat curses "weather carl" to turn into a cat at night, it "disappears like a smoke". Arin makes a "poof" sound and manages to time it so that the cat disappears right when he does it.
• When Mr. Saijo (or Mr.Saijo) offers to clean weather carl the cat, he puts it in the most awkwardly translated way possible, leading to riotous laughter.
  Dan: "Are you going to let me wipe?" UM. Don't screenshot that.
  Arin: Where's my phone? Where's my phone? Hold on, I have a...CAPTURE TAKEN! Woo boy.
• During the first stream, Arin and Danny are completely gobsmacked when weather carl's monologue includes the words "I was shook."
  Danny as weather carl: He's so fucking leet!
  Arin as weather carl: Damn! Yeet!
• Arin and Dan run into an extremely odd typo that Arin figures out is the word "windowsill" accidentally replacing an ellipsis. The game completely derails while the Grumps, Hannah, Allie, and Jory try to figure out where the word "windowsill" came from. Arin finds it in a previous sentence, and Jory theorizes that the game uses the unicode ellipsis character rather than simply writing three periods. As a result, the translator may have accidentally copied "windowsill" into the clipboard, where they kept the ellipsis character for convenient use.
  Arin: "Thank you! Umwindowsill about the cat" -
  Dan: ...Maybe that's an intentional thing that she's supposed to screw up because, like, she's tongue tied?
  Arin: I think they replaced "dot-dot-dot" with "windowsill".
  Dan: Ohhhhh, you might be right.
• One of the stream commenters says "I ship Dan and Hannah" when both of them are in the room. Dan, while thinking this is sweet, is already in a relationship, and admits there's a better chance of him and Arin getting together.
  Hannah: I ship Dan and Arin.
  Arin: What do you mean, "chance"?
  • Dan reminds Arin of the time he got legitimately offended when Arin said Dan wasn't his type.
• Arin and Dan quoting RedLetterMedia. Extra points for Arin's subtle Mike Stoklasa impression.
  Dan: They were talking about exterminating rats, and then Jay goes, "Hey, speaking of rat feces, let's talk about Jurassic Park: Evolution!"
  Arin as Mike Stoklasa: "Jurassic Park 2 is a Ponzi scheme translated into a movie."
• Arin times a burp perfectly.
  Arin as weather carl: "I don't even know which way to look!" Up or down or left or rHUUUUUUUP (cue everybody losing it)
• Once it is revealed that Mr. Saijo (or "Mr.Saijo", as the game constantly misspells) is a nekomata, Arin and Danny play up his creepy factor.
  Danny as Mr. Saijo: We don't have to have sex as a cat, or people. I'm going to take you out of your body and we will copulate on the astral plane.
  Arin as weather carl: Not gonna lie, that sounds kind of sick. Like at first, you were creeping me out, but now I'm like 'Damn! I'll try that shit!'

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

• In part two, Dan forgets the name and calls it Shakira. He then notes she sounds like Kermit the Frog.
  Mmmm. Kermit the Frog here, not lying with his hips!

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

• The jokes made at the expense of Phoenix Wright having no idea how to be a lawyer, with the best one being them (in-character) asking why "too hungry" wasn't an option for cause of death.
• Arin is constantly saying Mia is his favorite, and at the end of the case, he teases Dan that he won't like the next case. It's funniest when knowing that Mia dies, and this is basically going to be another Doki Doki Literature Club/Shadow of the Colossus.
• In response to Phoenix's argument being accused of being "baseless," Danny boldly declares, "All your base are belong to us!"
• The two begin Part 2 admitting that they forgot what was happening between episodes, and the first line of dialogue they read when they begin is very vague to the point that it almost seems like the game is mocking them for it.
• Quickly leading to Phoenix seriously hurting his hands from pounding the table so much.
• Maya's ESP is actually Extra Super Penis. "I'll let you figure out what that means."
• Upon entering Grossberg's office, Dan lets out a dismissive "Jews," completely throwing Arin off from his train of thought.
  • Turns into a Brick Joke in the next episode when they finally meet Mr. Grossberg and Dan voices him with a Yiddish accent.
• Ben's Freeze-Frame Bonus where he changes Phoenix's name to "Peenix" for one text box in Episode 6.
• Ben puts in a record-reversing sound when Dan flubs a line.
• Edgeworth becomes obsessed with his own giant hand, before realizing it's just Depth Deception.
• The unfortunate shape of the outline of Mia's body.
  Dan: This is where the penis was. The body was found near... (collapses into giggles)
  Arin: Detached and flaccid.
  Dan: And huge! Look at that...look at it in comparison to the chair!
• Dan abruptly changes April May's voice to a Valley Girl, and immediately wonders how many voices he's going to end up giving her.
• Ben gives the bellboy a Raging Stiffie as he remembers April kissing him.
• They get so invested in bringing down Redd White that the session lasts to the early hours, leading to them getting increasingly punchy. Dan voicing White as Tim Curry is especially fun.
• A new choice to ask about Grossberg's painting in White's office: "It's covered in semen."
• After the first episode without April when she's arrested: "Are you sad April's glorious boobs were not in this episode?"
• They have some trouble remembering what's going on in "Turnabout Sisters" after a break for a few days. "I feel like we're two old ladies catching up on our stories."
• At one point, Dan sneezes during a line read and says "excuse me". Ben, of course, adds it to the actual text box.
• Dan started saying "I'll suck your dick!" in a cutesy voice inspired by The Happytime Murders. Since the film was a flop, Grumps fans started looking up the original reading and the comments are all saying that Dan's reading is funnier.
• Arin inexplicably voices Will Powers as Homer Simpson. Then it evolves to a Verbal Tic of Marge or Bart.
• Dan can't keep up with Wendy Oldbag's Motor Mouth, and doesn't quite believe Arin's not just messing with him by scrolling through the text boxes.
• Ben does the above bit with the bellboy one better, as Wendy gets a Raging Stiffie over Jack Hammer.
• Considering when the game was released, Arin is disappointed it doesn't have any outdated Myspace references he can talk about with the Walter Matthau voice he does for Gumshoe.
• Dan keeps flubbing Maya's lines and eventually Arin cracks up at the image of her actually being that inarticulate but with the same smug expression on her face.
• Poor Dan gets stuck voicing four characters during Wendy's testimony, and keeps getting confused about which voice he should be using.
• Most times Phoenix presents a photo evidence during cross-examinations, asking to "look at this photograph", Arin and Dan will invariabily interject with a variation of "Every time it makes me laugh".
• On Day 2 of Turnabout Samurai, Phoenix's dialogue options with Maya make him come off like an amnesiac idiot, and they have a field day with Maya's confused fury.
• Arin gives Penny Nichols the voice of Lumpy Space Princess, which actually kind of fits with her terrible carpentry skills.
• They're naturally quite horrified at Sal Manella.
  Dan: I don't want to examine this man.
  • Dan has pretty much no patience for Sal's creepy appearence and behavior.
  Danny: Oh dude, leave some pussy for the rest of us.
• The second Dee Vasquez shows up on screen, Arin immediately declares her as his new wife.
  Arin: Could you leave the room for a few seconds so she can step on me?
• Arin gets so fed up with the Fetch Quest for the script that he snaps "Shut the fuck up!" at Maya, destroying Dan's attempt to stay in character.
• Ben turns Oldbag's angry huffing and puffing into a Voice Clip Song.
• Arin imagines Phoenix losing all patience with Cody Hackins and just giving him a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown.
• Ben adds to the list of favorite things about the Steel Samurai "his massive fucking doinker."
• Their explanation of how Gumshoe was able to eavesdrop on Phoenix's conversation with Cody.
  Dan: Lucky for you, I was masturbating in the corner for the past three days. You just never saw me.
  Arin: I'm covered in my own semen.
• After three whole episodes were somehow skipped and took more than a week to find, Ben threw in an opening indicating he had to blow the spoiler owl to fix things.
• Oldbag confides in Phoenix and Maya that Dee Vasquez treats Sal Manella like dirt, but he seems to like it. Maya is confused as to who would like being treated that way.
  Dan: Oh Maya, my sweet summer child.
• Arin and Dan get into an argument over whose fault it is when the air conditioner suddenly turns back on, and Ben animates the whole thing in the game's style. Arin is Elvis and Dan is a muscular stripper.
• They finally start picking up on the legendary Ho Yay between Phoenix and Edgeworth at the end of Turnabout Samurai and play it up for all it's worth, even figuring Edgeworth's anguished pose on the title card for Turnabout Goodbyes is him thinking about Phoenix.
  • Once they realize how much gay fanfiction Edgeworth and Phoenix must have, they start giving Edgeworth fanfiction-esque lines while still speaking in his serious voice.
  Edgeworth: Oops. Who left this yaoi paddle here?
  • When Edgeworth talks about his recurring dream in "Turnabout Goodbyes," the Grumps make up the recurring dream themselves: Edgeworth is on his knees surrounded by six dicks. This evolves into a Running Gag, such as mentions of six men mysteriously missing from the court.
• Maya keeps talking about wanting to stand under a waterfall, so the Grumps turn it into a watersports joke.
  Phoenix: All right, I'll pee on you.
  Maya: Finally! Take a hint.
• They're quite nonplussed by Maya's especially inane and useless comments in Turnabout Goodbyes.
  Dan: You've been a real great presence today, Maya.
• Arin is overjoyed when Lotta Hart shows up, not just because she's hot, but because her Southern dialect gives him the perfect excuse to break out his Grubba voice.
• Dan's reaction to Lotta's enthusiasm over being a possible witness to a murder.
  Dan: "Yee-haw?" Somebody's DEAD.
• After hearing Gumshoe talk about how he trusts Edgeworth, they decide that Edgeworth is in a love triangle with him and Phoenix.
• Arin (erroneously) explains to Danny that the original GBA version had three episodes, with the fourth being added in the DS version,^note He's thinking of the fifth one. and that's why so many previous characters reappear. Cue the comments predicting that everyone will be calling Arin out on this.
• Ben edits a newspaper article about Gourdy.
  Holy shit. Holy motherfuckin' shit, y'all. Y'all ain't even gonna believe this. You know that big ass lake, right? I think it's called Gourd Lake or some shit. Well anyway, the other day a straight up monster appeared in it. No cap. This shit was big as hell with a long ass neck. It lowkey looks like Kermit the frog had sex with a giraffe.

  I know some of y'all mofuckas out there probably gonna say that it's a doctored photo, or it's probably just a log that looks like a monster head or some shit. Honestly, y'all dumb as hell. Wtf kind of log has a big ass frog head at the end of it with that wide ass mouth? I know you're probably thinking "But where are its eyes?" Mofucka, I don't know. I didn't swim out there and inspect the shit myself. All I'm saying is, that motherfuckin' lizard is real as hell. I don't know if it's a leftover Brontosaurus from the Jurassic Period or maybe a salamander ate some steroids...
  • Better yet, there's a caption to the photo: Tfw u chilling by the lake with bae and a big ass lizard appears in the background.
• When remembering Mia's motto about having overlooked something:
  Phoenix: What did Mia used to say?
  Maya: Don't hit me with that clock! *Arin and Danny start giggling*
  Phoenix: No, before that. *Danny cracks up*
• The constant back-and-forth between Von Karma and the Judge inevitably causes Dan to mix up his voices for them, which is actually quite appropriate given how Von Karma spends the whole trial making the Judge his puppet.
• The game's months-long hiatus caused Dan to forget he was voicing Von Karma as just a slightly deeper Edgeworth, and instead gives him a jowly drawl that often becomes totally incomprehensible.
• They're rather confused by the game feeling the need to put in a brief flashback to Von Karma saying there are two witnesses, and imagine Phoenix and Gumshoe both constantly forgetting about it and needing to flash back every time it's brought up.
• During "Turnabout Goodbyes," Gumshoe reveals that Edgeworth gave him his yaoi paddle.
• Gumshoe reveals DSL stands for "dick sucking lips," followed by a ton of offers that go exactly the way you'd think.
• Arin gives the same confused shout every single time Phoenix asks Yanni Yogi a question and wakes him up.
• Arin is surprised to find out that Yanni Yogi is the old man's name. Dan naturally brings up a mostly-forgotten viral sensation.
  Danny-as-Maya: I say "Laurel" Yogi! (both crack up)
  Arin-as-Maya: It just depends on what you hear, though.
  • And then seconds later:
  Danny-as-Maya: He was wearing a black and blue dress. Or was it gold and white?!
• Wrightworth Watch reaches a new height with the heartfelt reveal that Edgeworth was the reason Phoenix even became a defense attorney. All Dan can really muster at this revelation is an astounded "Oh my God," and he is pretty much convinced that Nick wants to marry Edgeworth.

Undertale

• The name the Grumps pick for the fallen child? Jiggls. Spelled exactly like that.
• Arin's Papyrus voice. It really has to be heard to be believed. Many viewers, both in the stream and in the comments section, said it was quite possibly the most accurate Papyrus voice they'd ever heard. Ross gave Papyrus a goofier Skeletor voice, but Arin adds to it and gives it a Krang vibe.
• The Grumps' assistant Allie rides shotgun with them during the livestream, alternately being Exposition Fairy, Straight Man, and Team Mom to Arin and Dan.
• The gang spends several minutes worrying that they might've compromised their Pacifist Run after Arin accidentally picked the "devour" option in the Vegetoid fight.
• Arin jokingly wonders if reading Toriel's diary will set him down the Genocide path.

  Arin: You read the passage: "Why did the skeleton want a friend? Because she was feeling bonely..."

  Dan: "You've lost your perfect run!"

  Arin: (Breaks down laughing) "How could you do such a thing?! Millions are dead!"

• Dan immediately has the game's intended reaction to Jerry, while Arin is the one who feels bad. "I don't want to ditch Jerry! We just ditched Jerry! That's so fucking uncool!"
• In the battle with Asgore, Arin accidentally eats the Snowman Piece and becomes genuinely distraught. He dies soon after anyway.
• In part 6, they begin the Genocide Route, with Ross coaching Arin on how to perform the betrayal kill on Toriel.

  Ross: Hey, for the first time ever, Arin beat the tutorial.

  Arin: (Gives very obvious fake-laugh) I WILL kill you.

• While fighting the Mad Dummy:'
  Danny: (reading Mad Dummy's dialogue) You're not the worst person I've ever met! [Beat] You are the worst person I've ever met. Sorry, Dan read that wrong.
• In the fight against Sans, Allie tells Arin not to skip any cutscene dialogue because it changes every time. He then skips the entire dialogue.
  Allie: You skipped it!
  Arin: Oh, THAT dialogue!
• After completing the Pacifist Route, they travel back to Temmie Village and begin the long, arduous task of grinding out enough G to send Temmie to college. They immediately crack up when Temmie casually slides off screen, leaving her eyes and mouth in place.
  Danny: Uh, Tem, you're gonna need your face in college...

Heave Ho

• Dan and Arin play a co-op game where the objective is to grab onto things and fling yourself to victory. Hilarity ensues.
  Arin: Grab my hand!
• A lot of the comedy in these episodes comes from the Grumps' insistence on making things harder for themselves: dragging each other around or splitting up rather than cooperating, trying to fling themselves or the coin over obstacles, etc.
  • And on one of the few occasions when Arin does throw the coin accurately, Danny immediately destroys it against a spike of doom.
• The "Eureka!" Moment in part 2, when they figure out they can progress more effectively by holding the coin between them. You almost want to give them both a pat on the head and a cookie.
  • And then they promptly un-learn it in part 3.
    Danny: No, the coin! The coin! (coin rolls off the ledge while he and Arin struggle)
    Arin: It doesn't matter! Forget the coin! Only our friendship matters!
    Danny: (new coin appears) A coin! (they both fall off the ledge while trying to get the new one)
    Arin: You Fool!

Pantsu Hunter

• Arin voices the Player Character with his "Generic Anime Protagonist" voice, but later in the first episode, he adds an extra layer of douchiness to it when he yammers on self-importantly about his skills and his general sleaziness. Many have commented that that voice suits the protag perfectly.
• Doki Doki Literature Club! did a number on Danny.
  Arin: (reading narration) Just like in all more or less decent universities, mine had various clubs...
  Danny: Oh God, not, not literature...
• The Grumps' (especially Dan's) constant snarking about the protagonist's almost alien understanding of human interaction, where just one evening of normal, pleasant company with the prospective girls and not thinking about their panties is framed as some major moment of character growth.
• The Good Bad Translation of the game, while not as egregious as Kitty Love, still gets the Grumps in stitches every now and then. Especially this nugget:
  Danny!Anko: Today is football.
  (cue Arin absolutely losing it for about a full minute)
• The bonkers levels reach new heights in Part 11 and includes the origin of Mahiru's catchphrase from their playthrough of Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair:
  • Whenever Haruka puts her hands on her hips and leans forward, Dan and Arin imagine she's saying "What the heck is going on around here?"
  • When alone with Anko, the game says "The silence linglers", causing them both to crack up.
    Dan!Anko: I will not stay here in this linglering... Silence.
    Dan: That's impossible to say!
    Arin!Kenji: Smell my fingler! (Dan cracks up)
  • When Yukari and Haruka (who, like all of the girls, are voiced by Dan) start randomly flirting with each other. It helps that Dan's voice for both girls are basically indistinguishable - and that Arin somehow laughs even more than at "today is football".
    Dan-as-Haruka: Now I also want to kiss Kenji!
    Arin-as-Kenji: "Yukari covered me with her graceful shadow and put a finger to Haruka's lips."
    Dan-as-Haruka: But why?
    Dan-as-Yukari: Just keep calm, Haruka, you're too young.
    Dan-as-Haruka: Too young to kiss? That's just silly!
    Dan-as-Yukari: How about you kiss me instead?
    Arin and Dan: (screams with laughter)
    Dan: Oh, we're in full-blown insane-o town now.
  • When Haruka starts talking about how you shouldn't wear panties in an onsen, Arin's losing it the whole time, but then he really loses it:
    Dan!Haruka: (Haruka has her hands on her hips) Be honest! Just what the heck is going on around here?! (Dan laughs and Arin laughs so hard he devolves into coughing and silent laughs)
    Dan: This game has finally broken us... (Arin continues laughing and Dan has trouble restarting the conversation due to laughing)

Man of Medan

• Their reaction to the film's opening song sequence (especially the moment where the Curator is introduced).
• During Alex and Julia's underwater proposal scene, Dan can't quite ignore the fact that they're in shark-infested waters.
• Pronouncing the game's title as "Me, Dan" like it was Danny saying his name in Hulk Speak.

Sakura Santa

• Danny uses the exact same voice for all three of the girls. Should be fun once they start interacting with each other.
• Arin pronounces Itsumi's name like Mario's "It's-a me".
  • When Arin decides to go check on Itsumi again:
    Dan: I think you just like dark-haired girls.
    Arin: (flustered) Shut up.
    Dan: All right, well...
    Arin: (very gravelly) You shut your fucking mouth.
• The Grumps find the "scenery" outside the protagonist's apartment to look like the apartment is ten miles in the air above the clouds. This comes to an amazing head after the protagonist does the obligatory "my childhood friend used to not have big boobs but now she has really big boobs" thing:
  Arin-as-Koji: Now she has those massive breasts, like peaks that touch the heavens.
  Dan: And I would know, I live there.
• When that other kind of scenery crops up, Ben censors it with pictures of Jesus.

CLANNAD

• First and foremost, the Mass "Oh, Crap!" that ensued in the comments section. If you've ever played CLANNAD or watched the anime adaptation, you know exactly what they're in for. It's as if they learned nothing from Doki Doki Literature Club.
• Arin's voice for Tomoya (or as they name him, Flundl).

Kuukiyomi: Consider It

• Dan getting stuck in a crush of people leaving a subway car.
  • And then he and Arin keep bumping into each other as they try to board, until the train leaves without them.
  Danny: I would give anything for footage of someone doing that in real life.
• Later, after Arin's character promises to hit a run for the obligatory "inspirational sick little kid":
  (whiff)
  Danny: Well, Timmy died.

Mega Man V

• During the final level Boss Rush, Arin equips the Napalm Bomb in order to fight Stone Man and Danny suddenly realizes that the game abbreviates "Napalm Bomb" to "N. Bomb".
  Danny: Is that called the N. Bomb?! (Arin starts laughing) Oh my God! (both laugh) That.. that should have been thought about!

Space Quest V - The Next Mutation

• The running gag of Arin as Droole muttering "Buttons, buttons..." to himself.
• In Part 3, after rescuing Cliffy the game briefly glitches so that there are two Cliffy sprites. Arin takes advantage and makes the best possible pun he could.
  Danny!Roger: You OK, Cliffy?
  Arin-as-Cliffy: I'm beside myself!

Hollow Knight

• From Part 1, Danny's rendition of the Fatboy Slim song "Praise You," including an uncanny imitation of some of the synthesizer effects.
• When they meet Quirrel, Danny embellishes his character a little.
  Quirrel: And what a time I chose to arrive! This dead world has sprung to life.
  Danny!Quirrel: And this, on the day of my cat's quinceañera!^note he pronounces it "kwin-che-Ner-ah"
• After Arin frees the first grum, Danny worries he might have done something bad.
  Danny: He's like "Thank you! Now I can spread disease! You'll be the first!"
• The Grumps get a chuckle out of the Last Stag saying "I've grown stiff and tired."
  Arin: You had me at "I've grown stiff".

Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc

• Purely by accident, the series has an ongoing Running Gag in which the Grumps make joke predictions about the plot of the game, only for those jokes to accurately describe something that happens later in the game or in one of the sequels. That, combined with Danny's noticeable resemblance to Yasuhiro, has led the comments section to dub him the real Ultimate Clairvoyant.
  • Here's their compilation from the first game.
• Another Running Gag is the boys chuckling at one of Sakura's voice clips that says "So in the end...", making numerous jokes about it throughout the series. The commenters on many different videos remark that they'll be very disappointed if the final episode of this playthrough isn't named "So in the end...". When this indeed ends up being the title of the finale episode, the comments section is filled with rejoicing.
• Episode 1:
  • Dan and Arin think the concept of gathering talented young people at one school sounds suspiciously like the Charles Xavier Academy, and keeps making jokes on that front while as offscreen characters, they insist it's nothing like the X-Men.
  • Dan riffs on how "Hope's Peak" sounds like the name of a teen drama. "Join us next month on the CW for Hope's Peak."
  • Arin gives Makoto a "generic anime protagonist" voice that makes him sound kind of like Launchpad McQuack.
  • Upon learning that one of the students is the "Ultimate Fanfic Creator" Dan immediately assumes that it's Lil' Soniq.
  • They lampshade that early in the episode a "teddy bear shot a man into space" and guess it will make sense in time.
  • The Grumps immediately peg Hifumi as the Ultimate Fanfic Writer, and declare that Kiyotaka, who threatens to report Makoto for being tardy, is "the Ultimate Douche" and "the Ultimate Narc".
  • Taka is briefly given the voice of an angry Kermit the Frog, which is unfortunately dropped after his first appearance. "I'm the ultimate douche!"
  • Dan's reaction to Mondo's ridiculous pompadour: "Get this dead armadillo off of my head!"
• The Call-Back to the Doki Doki Literature Club playthrough, where they have Makoto shout “Get bigger hands!” at one of the girls.
• With all the pizza jokes Arin makes about Sayaka, he seems to think that "Maizono" sounds like some kind of Italian entree. Cue Arin and Danny turning Sayaka into the daughter of Mario, reading all of her lines in a fake Italian accent, and making all kinds of pasta jokes whenever she shows up.
• In episode 2, Danny (as Hina) comes up with a mnemonic device to remember Makoto's name.
  Dan!Hina: Like, when I'm at a party and I need to think of what to say to people, I talk about "Muh-coat-oh!" And then when people ask me what I want for breakfast and if I want pancakes, I say "Nah, Eggy."
• "I can cry and program at the same time!"
• After Arin spends most of the first and second episodes doing the majority of the voices, he offers to let Dan voice a few of the new students. Unfortunately the first two he suggests Dan do are Kyoko and Mondo, who speaks a total of two lines in his introduction.
• As soon as it's revealed Sakura is a woman, Arin decides to give her the same high voice as most of the other girls.
• Shortly after meeting Celeste, Danny drops this Logic Bomb:
  Dan!Celeste: I've never lost a bet!
  Dan!Makoto: Well in that case, I bet you that you won't lose this next bet!
  Dan!Celeste: OH MY GOD!!!
• In episode 3, Monokuma himself is given the voice of... Larry the Cable Guy.
  Monokuma: As headmaster, I've crafted a special clause for those of you who would like to leave! I call it...the Graduation Clause! Now, let me tell you about this fun little rule.
  Arin!Monokuma: You must consume Prilosec.
• Danny giving Byakuya the incredibly in-character line of "Poor people die all the time!"
• Arin ruminates on the notion that, if the school is full of "ultimates" and the goal of the game is for the students to kill each other, it would make sense if one of them turned out to be the "Ultimate Serial Murderer". What makes it funny is that the scene just happens to cut to the character who would eventually turn out to be a serial murderer via Split Personality.
• When Makoto figures out that the room he woke up in is in fact, his dorm room, Arin responds with a completely deadpan "No shit, dude."
• In episode 4, everyone gets together to discuss what they've discovered about the academy:
  Junko: Chihiro and I found out that all the rooms are totally soundproof.
  Dan!Junko: So you could totally kill someone! Loudly!
  Chihiro: Your next-door neighbor could scream their lungs out and you wouldn't hear a thing...
  Arin!Chihiro: Yup! They could just scream and shout and nobody would hear it! My... door is always unlocked, so...
• Danny also comments Celeste looks like a "sweet, murderous Amish girl".
• They quickly get frustrated with how seemingly every single plot point requires all the characters to chime in with their own thoughts, and start interjecting random generic lines in all the voices.
• Maizono soon develops into an increasingly stereotypical Italian, which they crack up over every single time and declare one of their best Running Gags.
• Upon finding a "skinny Buddha" statue, Arin notes how his development is kind of like Elvis Presley, leading into a whole routine of Elvis-as-Buddha.
• Dan belching halfway through reading Junko's lines in Part 5.
• When Hifumi asks Asahina what she meant by Monokuma "eating" Sayaka and drooling as he says it, Dan responds with, "Dude, calm down. Wipe your mouth."
• The onomatopoeia description for the school bell ringing is "ding dong, bing bong." Arin and Dan love it, and Dan says the game should be called Danganronpa: Ding Dong Bing Bong.
  Dan: I'm the ding dong boy! I'm the one who bing bongs!
• While Danny tries to distinguish the characters he voices a bit, Arin gives every female protagonist (except Sayaka, due to him voicing her as extremely Italian) the same feminine voice, making Danny laugh every time a new character emerges and Arin uses the exact same tone of voice. Additionally, they notice how all of Danny's characters tend to speak to one another and all of Arin's tend to speak to each other, exasperating the Grumps as they try to keep track of who they're voicing.
  • Sayaka being the only female character not to have Arin's high-pitched, breathy feminine voice and instead sounding like a Mario-esque Italian is doubly funny considering the former voice would arguably fit her the best of all the female characters.
• In episode 12, the Grumps try to construct a parody of the theme song to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air about Junko getting stabbed.
  Arin: I got in one little fight, and my blood got scared, it said - [spurting noises]
  Danny: "We're moving out to the gym floor over there!"
• In episode 13:
  • The Grumps are proceeding through the trial, and use Aoi's account of events to attempt to prove Makoto's evidence, at least until...
    Makoto: Just to be perfectly clear, the knife disappeared while you were in the dining hall, correct?
    Dan!Makoto: How could I taken the knife from the dining hall when I was too busy murdering Sayaka?!
    Both: (crack up)
    Arin: Everybody's just like, their mouth agape, like, slowly looks at him and he's like, "Heh, checkmate!"
  • After Aoi says that Sakura stayed in her room and Chihiro says he doesn't have a problem with it, Taka says there is a problem:
    Dan!Taka: It is a problem! These two are doing each other right in the "airtight alibi's"!(Dan and Arin laugh)
    Arin!Taka: And I'm over here jerkin' it alone in my stupid room!
  • After Celeste makes a stupid guess and says that any hair was removed from Makoto's room to remove any trace that Sayaka was in Makoto's room, the Grumps are confused and this conversation happens:
    Celeste: That makes sense, does it not?
    Arin: No, because she's dead in there!
    Kyoko: No, if that were the case, they would have had to do something with the body itself, not just her hair.
    Arin: What a fucking moron!
    Dan: There's plenty of hair on the top of the corpse!
  • A little later, Arin's patience runs thin as no one in the trial quickly accuses Leon of murder with clear evidence and it shows:
    Arin: (As Leon) "Why wasn't there any hair on the ground?" (Normal voice) BECAUSE SOMEBODY CLEANED IT UP YOU FUCKING MORON!!!
• In episode 14, Arin has this to say, having witnessed two of the game's executions:
  Arin: It's like dumb Saw, and Saw is already dumb.
• Arin roasting Kyoko for being a know-it-all, referring to her as "the most presumptuous girl I have ever met in my life" and when Kyoko asserts she disagrees that Sayaka just wrote Leon's name to spite her killer over feeling guilty for framing Makoto, Arin snarks, "Oh, do you not? Were you really good friends with her?"
• Dan (as Byakuya) referring to Asahina as "the girl with soft-serve chocolate ice-cream hair".
• Arin and Dan laughing during Celeste's infamous tea tantrum (which has been likened to Arin's Subway rant) and being weirded out at how excited Hifumi gets from being referred to as a swine.
  Dan: Oh my god! Her voice actress just called him a little bitch!
• Halfway through episode 17, Arin and Danny decide that Mondo is very excited to see Makoto and Byakuya bathing, and wants to have sex with them after he references his biker talent in the weirdest way possible.
  Arin!Mondo: Not that I wanted to see [Byakuya] taking a bath or anything, I just thought that he would be in here taking a bath, and like, I would have to see him taking a bath, but it's not like I wanted to or anything. So what about you? Are you taking a bath?
  Dan!Mondo: What's your bath schedule?
  Mondo: After spending all night riding your hog, wind in your face, there's nothin' better than a morning dip!
  Arin: (cracks up)
  [...]
  Mondo: Guys gotta expose themselves to each other, ya know? Come with me next time, you'll see!
  Dan: I'll see what?
  Arin!Mondo: My big hog! Hog in your mouth, wind in your face, that's 69, baby!
  Makoto: But it's not like you've been riding your hog here in the school, right?
  Dan!Mondo: Oh, if only you could believe that!
• When Byakuya tells Chihiro to shut up, Dan then tries to tie it into the episode ending:
  Dan: (as Byakuya) Yes? If you have something to say, say it. Othwerwise, keep your mouth closed! (normal voice) And next time on Game Grumps, we'll keep our mouths OPEN! ...For the comedy to come out!
  Arin: (starts laughing loudly)
• The Running Gag of Arin pronouncing "DVD" as "Dee-Bwee-Dee" as a reference to how there's no "V" sound in the Japanese language.
• Predictably, Dan and Arin absolutely pounce on the Ho Yay between Mondo and Taka.
  Dan!Taka: Forget her, bro! In fact, we don't need women at all anymore!
  [...]
  Arin!Mondo: I should get a tattoo of that!
  Dan!Taka: No! Your body is a temple! A delicious, oily temple! Given to you by your loving parents! And enjoyed by me!
• How Byakuya's name is pronounced had changed from simply saying it to Byuck-ya. And they say it faster every time his name is said.
  • They also characterize Byakuya as randomly referring to himself in third-person just to nail home his self-importance.
  Arin!Byakuya: What good does it to me, Byakuh, to help you?
  Dan!Byakuya: Not-Byakuh!
  (Arin cracks up)
  • While they later go to the library with Byakuya, Byakuya's emphasis on how the library is filled with top-secret information only known by the underground organization that really runs the world, they then decide that Byakuya is a deepstate Conspiracy Theorist.
  Arin!Makoto: This box is empty.
  Arin!Byakuya: Is it?
• When Makoto and Byakuya discover Chihiro's body, the conversation is derailed when Taka runs in:
  Dan!Taka: HEY! I HEARD SCREAMING THAT WASN'T ME! (Arin cracks up)
• Arin reading Makoto's "what...?" after seeing Chihiro in a bored, disinterested tone.
• Arin decides to examine Chihiro's body once more, and Dan makes an observation reflective of all the Insane Troll Logic thrown around in this game.
  Makoto: This rope has a... plug?! Wait, so then... this isn't a rope at all!
  Dan!Makoto: Chihiro was a... a toaster!
  Arin!Makoto: She was tied up with her own extension cable!
• Once Genocide Jack is revealed, Hifumi appropriately freaks out, but the camera pans out to show that he's actually in the booth right next to the serial killer.
  Dan!Hifumi: Does anybody want to trade seats?!
• In episode 29, Danny and Arin lose it over Taka's continued Heroic BSoD after exploration of the third floor's finished.
  Hiro: We should talk about what we found, right, Taka?
  Taka: ...
  Both: (crack up)
  Danny: Everyone's doing really well these days!
  Arin: Wow, cool man. We really learned a lot in that scene!
• When Makoto finds the picture of Mondo, Leon and Chihiro, Dan and Arin are both impressed by how absolutely ripped Mondo is.
• When the students are discussing what they discovered on the third floor, we get this gem:
  Kyoko: In the middle of the room, there was a machine bigger than anything I've ever seen before.
  Arin!Makoto: Uh, not my wiener, y'know what I'm sayin'? *Exaggerated chuckles*
  Dan!Kyoko: (completely deadpan) Yes. It was bigger than your wiener.
  Arin!Makoto: DAH!
  Dan!Makoto: IMPOSSIBLLLLLLE!
• Danny and Arin are sent into hysterics when they discover the photo of Hifumi being strangled by Robo Justice.
  Who's more than meets the eye now, bitch?!
• Arin pronouncing the word "alibi" as "aleebee".
• When Hifumi's body is discovered, Hina's reaction has Dan both exasperated and amused:
  Hina: You're not serious, are you?! He's not really dead, is he?!
  Dan: (affectionately) Uh, Hina...my love. (He and Arin laugh) I really don't know how to break this to you...this is like the fifth murder!
• Dan as Byakuya calling Makoto a simp for Kyoko, then explaining he just learned what that word means and wanted to use it. They have Makoto deny that he's a simp for Kyoko... before having Makoto say he's a simp for Hina.
• When the boys get to the voting of the third trial after discovering who the killer is after all their hard work.
  Danny: It'll be like in Among Us where everyone votes for Celeste and there's like one vote for Kyoko.
  Arin: Yeah, it's like, "Why did you—What the fuck?"
  • This is particularly funny if you're familiar with the third game, in which the votes are shown.
• The Grumps turn discussion about Toko hiding in the locker into an argument about whether or not Toko farted while she was in there, with Arin!Makoto even claiming to have proof she did.
• During the fourth trial, Dan makes a joke as Hiro that Sakura actually committed suicide...and then five minutes later the game reveals that's exactly what happened.
• Hina's stubborn resistance to the outcome of the trial leads to a perfect encapsulation of the Danganronpa experience:
  Makoto: That's enough, Hina. It's over.
  Hina: It's not! Nothing's over!
  Makoto: It is! Actually, no... you're right.
  Dan: Jesus Christ! [as Makoto] I'd like to introduce 40 more pieces of new evidence!
  Arin: If this game could be summed up in three lines of dialogue...
• The Grumps imagining Sakura as the "You Know I Had To Do It To 'Em" guy.
• When Monokuma is reading out the contents of Sakura's real suicide note, it shows an image of Sakura writing in ink on a scroll of paper:
  Arin: She wrote all this one that one sheet of paper?
  Danny: Yeah, she starts writing at the top all big, and like, it gets smaller and smaller... (Arin laughs)
  Arin!Sakura: This was longer then I thought it'd be, sorry!
  Danny: Yeah, then it says "over", with a little arrow pointing to the side...
• When Kyoko leans in to tell Makoto about a secret student, Dan improvises that she's actually whispering to him, "If you poop in a bowl of Rice Krispies, do they go 'snap, crackle, poop'?" The joke on its own is just random, but what makes it hilarious is that Dan didn't realize there'd be a ton of flashbacks to this particular scene, and the Grumps repeat the joke every time the scene comes onscreen.
• In episode 62, when Makoto and Kyoko head off to meet with the rest of the survivors, Dan says: “Let’s find that idiot^note Yasuhiro, that psycho^note Toko, that douchebag^note Byakuya and Aoi^note Aoi.”
• During the trial in Episode 58, when Kyoko begins discussing how the sprinklers may not have gotten the body wet, Dan!Hiro chimes in with Insane Troll Logic:
  Kyoko: All it would take is covering the body with a certain something to keep it from getting wet.
  Dan: Water?
  Arin: Fight water with water! That's what people say!
  Dan: (as Hiro) Like an impenetrable layer of water that the next water couldn't get through? (as Kyoko) No, Hiro.
  Arin: (as Hiro) Oh, I'm so confused!
• When Sayaka briefly gets another speaking part, Arin reacts with abject glee at the fact that he gets to do her Italian accent again.
• In episode 71, Arin and Dan theorize that the reason the mastermind erased everybody's memories so people would forget that one time they farted in public.
  • And the small running gag of the Mastermind accidentally letting it slip and deciding they have to wipe everyone's memories again.
• When Hina questions what Sakura would do at a time like this, Dan and Arin jokingly speculate that she'd die after taking two blows to the head and then say "But in the end..." as she's dying.
• Arin lampshading the absurdity of trying to instill hope in Genocide Jill, a Serial Killer.
  Arin!Makoto: GENOCIDAL MURDERER! DON'T LOSE HOPE NOW!
• When the survivors are getting ready to escape, we get some funny joke scenarios, like Hina declaring a desire to head to the nearest donut shop only to fall into despair upon seeing that there aren't any left and Byakuya deciding he can't resist Toko anymore and making out with her right in front of everyone.
• Hiro questioning if maybe the escape switch is actually a self-destruct button predictably leads to this:
  Arin!Makoto: Hope really is spreading! (presses button, explosion sound)

Alien: Isolation

• Danny says that the game is based on one of his favorite movies, which is also one of Arin's favorite movies.
  Arin: Um, uh... Bring It On?
  Danny: (stifles laughter) Yeah... Lilo & Stitch? He was an alien, and he went into isolation after that sweet Hawaiian girl took him in.
• Arin recognizes the voice-over during the credits as Sigourney Weaver, and goes for the obvious pun: "Believe it or not, it's Ripley!"
• In episode 2, the Grumps find they need a "maintenance jack" to open a locked door. They spend the rest of the episode wondering who Maintenance Jack is.

Hatoful Boyfriend

• Dan decides to voice Ryouta the rock dove, the species most common to New York, with a very heavy New York accent, complete with moments of Brooklyn Rage.
• Arin voices Shuu to sound like drunk Orson Welles.
  "Ahhh, the French hens!"
• Arin reads any phrase that begins with "Today is..." as "Today is football," a Call-Back to Pantsu Hunter's "Blind Idiot" Translation.

Find Yourself

• Yet again, Arin ropes Danny into playing a horror game without telling him what it is. Dan hopefully suggests that maybe it's a romantic comedy, and Arin goes along with that until they get jumpscared.
  • Later, Arin reveals that one of their coworkers nearly spoiled the surprise by telling Dan that the game was going to make him "shit his pants," causing Arin to have to deflect and change the subject before they started the episode. Apparently, Dan was clueless about the hints being dropped.
• In Episode 2, things only get worse for Dan when a series of Monster Clown enemies start showing up. He slips into chanting "no, no, no" when the game transports them to an abandoned carnival, complete with more clowns.

Grim Legends 2

• When the woman in the beginning cries, "Why did you leave me?!" and falls holding on to the rock, Dan assumes she's crying to the rock, and Arin assumes she's crying to the nearby crow.
• The Grumps take note of how everything on the intro screen is themed to the game... then there's a garrish "SAVE UP FOR 50%!" button in the bottom screen that totally clashes with the fantasy vibe.
• Due to a bear representing expert mode, every time the bear comes onscreen in cutscenes, the Grumps yell "Ahh, Expert Mode!"
