    Kaizo Mario World 
  • Jon's blind playthrough of Special Stage 2 has his famous reaction to the "Kaizo Trap":
    Jon: "...oh, what?!... WHAT?! WHAAAT?! ...What the fuck? What the fuck? What...the...fuck? What the..." [bursts into tears] "Are you serious?!"
    [silence, as Jon calms himself]
    Maybe I imagined that..."
    [Reloads save-state, which shows Mario dying via Kaizo Trap...again]
    Jon: [distraught] "Oh FU-HU-HU-HU-HU-HUCK I didn't imagine that!
  • [sounding defeated before even entering the stage] "...why am I agreeing to do this? Why?..."
  • "All right, what have we got? We got - a hundred seconds?! Oh, mother fuck, this is not gonna be good!"
  • "I'm not sleeping tonight, guys; this is my nightmare sound."
  • "Move faster, Pokey! Faster! FASTER! For the love of God, faster!"
  • "Jump! Jump you... fuckin' football player! MEGAMAN! JUMP MEGAMAN!"
  • "Catch. [dies] Catch. [dies] Catch. [dies] Ca.. don't catch death! Stop catching death!"
  • "For the love of Batman. JUMP!"
    • "BILL COSBY! IS ANGRY! STIMPY! I NEED... SPACKLE!"
  • [sees a block he needs to hit] "HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO HIT THAT?!?!" [immediately hits an invisible block to get to it] "Oh..."
  • "Not gonna mess up. Not gonna fuck this up. [dies, loads state] You didn't see that."
  • "Drillstomp!...360!...Kickflip McTwist!...Christ Air!...900!...I'm already out of Tony Hawk moves."
  • "Go, go, go, go, Mario! I'm-a Mario!"
  • From his playthrough of Special Stage 4: No matter how many times we've seen it, it still never gets old.
    • "OH MY GOD! ZERO SECONDS!? WHAT!?"
    • While trying to navigate a tricky set of jumps with Thwomps and spikes: "Hop. Slight hop. Mega hop!" [Dies] "Sliiight -" [Dies] "Sliight, Mega, Man!" [succeeds] "Did it." [Column of Munchers crushes him suddenly from above] "OH WHAT THE HELLL!?!?!?!?!?"
    • And when the mid-level save drops him into a pit.
      "WHA.A.A.T???"
    • "HOLY FUCK!!!"
    • "Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudgesicles!"
    • [singing, to the Super Mario World castle music] "This... is the castle... a fucking hard one..."
    • "Yeah! [nearly dies] FuuuUUUUUUUUUuuuuck!"

    Other Super Mario World Hacks 

    Knytt Stories 
  • In his first playthrough of "Don't Eat the Mushroom", he didn't eat the mushroom, and the game ended in the most anticlimactic fashion imaginable.
    Jon: Well, I guess I have no choice, I guess I have to eat the mushroom. Oh, wow. Imagine that. Imagine that; you have to do something the game tells us not to do. That's incredible, that's amazing, that's... mushroom! [eats mushroom] ...Huh? ...Huh? That... that did nothing. Aw, it's not gonna be some stupid psychedelic Freak Out, is it? Like, I'm not gonna talk to her and she's gonna eat my head or something?
    [he walks forward a little bit... and then the background abruptly switches to The Burger King standing against a field of fire while "What Is Love?" begins to play on infinite loop, completely surprising Jon]
    Jon: AUGH! [gasps] ...Fuck!
    • "Does doing drugs actually do this? I... I'm gonna need to check this, 'cause if I took a hit of acid and suddenly saw the Burger King on fire singing "What Is Love", I'd be amazed."
  • "I got the 'I Forget' move. HOORAY!"
  • "Yes! More! More Jim Carrey!"
  • "Probably shouldn't have eaten that mushroom. Oh you..."
  • "I am climbing myself. What the hell?"
  • "WHO MADE THIS THING?!"
  • "Aww, Internet Explorer? 6?! Oh, no wait, it's 7, never mind."
  • "It's nice and atmospheric, especially later o— [falls into water] ...fuck."

    Super Smash Bros. 
  • "NOW I'LL SHOW YOU!"
    • "NO YOU WILL NOT!"
    • "AW DAMMIT!" "DIIIIEEEE!!!"
    • "I DON'T WANT YOU TO SHOW ME ANYTHING!"
  • The ending to the first video.
    Ashley: How many times did I say "You're holding a bomb!"?
  • "GYNECOLOGY STAB!!!"
  • "THE KNEE"
    • The last few seconds of that same match. It has to be seen to be believed!
    Jon: [as Rodney turns into Wario-Man] Oh I'm dead.
    Rodney: But you're protected in that security box of yours. note 
    [Rodney grabs a lightning power-up, causing Jon's character and respective hit box to grow out of said box]
    Jon: Unless that happens!!!
  • "AHHH! I'M STUCK!" [goes in reverse and falls off the stage]
  • "No nines! [gets hit by a 9 from Mr. Game & Watch] SONOFABITCH!"
    • "YES NINES!"
    • The following:
      Jon: You weren't playing with Chris and everyone else when all they did was team up three Game & Watches on a—
      [Jon gets hit with a 9 from the giant Lu Bu]
      Jon: MARIO!!!
      Lu Bu: THERE WE GO! That was a giant 9!
  • "Oh, God! Jill is the Anti-Dee!"
  • "This call is being recorded." What makes it is how Rodney (Azura) can't stop laughing.

    Custom Deal or No Deal with Kelekin 
  • It bears mention that even the introduction has its own moment...
    Jon: We have... Hepatitis A-G. I forgot that was there. Uh...
    [cue Censor Box with the text "This part of the commentary deleted because Jon was an idiot and forgot he was recording"]
    Kelekin: Anyways!
    Jon: Moving on! We have a... one-year supply of Gonorrhea. God damn it.
  • "I'm not getting a golden shower, you sick fuck."
    • "What will R Kelly do now?"
  • The entirety of the round where Jon loses the box of used condoms.
    Game Narration: That round was not in your favor.
    Jon: How was it not in my favor?
    Kelekin: He recognizes the benefits of them being used!
    • The "Bad Mario Rom Hack" versus the used condoms was worth a chuckle, too:
      Kelekin: Seriously, though, if you had to choose between a romhack - a bad romhack - and a package of used condoms? I think that's quite the toss-up.
      Jon: I'm not answering that question at all!
      Kelekin: Thought I'd try.
  • "You are useless, Carmen!"
    • "You're useless too... and you're a prick!"
    • And at the last choice:
      2nd Helper: [completely blank]
      Jon: ......WOW!
      Kelekin: She's speechless!
      Jon: I think she had a stroke! That's why she is holding her head.
      Kelekin: Somebody should call 911. [...] She's telepatically calling 911.
      Jon: I'm summoning 911 right now.
  • Jon's reaction to the second offer is priceless, too:
    Game Text: Suggested offer: Sponge Bath from Mom.
    Jon: Eugh!
    Kelekin: You know, I think that's a good suggestion.
    Jon: Nonono! Change it! Change it! I hate you!
    Kelekin: Hypothetical mom wants to give you a sponge bath.
    Jon: Hypothetical mom can hypothetically go away.

    Superman 64 
  • "Great, just great."
  • The glitches, over 100 of them listed in Jon's Let's Play of the game.
    • Stage 6 alone adds a whopping 27 glitches to the count (including one during the pre-level cutscene).
    • In Stage 10, the counter finally breaks the 100 mark. Jon celebrates with confetti.
  • Getting shot to heal yourself.
  • "And now apparently I can't walk up the stairs. Superman, walk up the stairs. Stop jumping like a pony and walk up the stairs. Don't jump over the stairs! Thank you. - Fly, Superman, into that wall!"
  • "Let's show off our lovely hero's face ... AND THEN HIS CHEST!"
  • "WOW. DUUUUDE!"
  • Kidnappable Babies: Infinite
    • "What if I throw it... oh man, where'd the baby carriage go?!"
    • Right before the above, there's this:
      Jon: And I am... walking in mid-air. [silence] Thank you, game. Thank you. The only problem with [kidnapping babies] is if I press B to fly, I can't.... Okay. That's new. [starts flying] Oh, whoa! That... didn't work last time!
    • Then when Jon realises exactly what he's done...
      Jon: Ah, shit, now I have to do this all over again.
      Superman: Then there's no time to waste.
      Jon: Fuck.
  • Random Asshole Comment: 1
  • At the end of the Dam stage:
    Jon: Now I want everyone to just kinda sit back, relax, and enjoy this well-earned victory. Do you know why?
    [a mine robot flies by and kills Superman]
    Jon: Because it didn't really happen.
  • One of the video comments on the first part of the Stage 3 video:
    "Nice biography on Titus, but you forgot the part where the Caen brothers died tragically when they accidentally glitched through the floor."
  • "For now, let's enjoy the third ride while we have it... in glorious Squint-o-vision..."
  • "I... I smile and nod. It's Game Boy logic."
  • "Mala is from the planet Krypton - same as Superman - which means she has the exact same powers as Superman... which, thankfully, in this game means absolutely nothing."
    • The better humor is in what is stated silently:
      Subtitles: Super Powers in Game: She can punch things.
  • "Astute listeners with ears will have noticed that Superman's health is low."
  • Jon breaking the game in the Dam level and, without missing a beat, taking us on a tour of the "Negative world":
    Jon: There's the water — [Beat] and we fell through the water. This is Superman's innards, in case you were wondering what the Man of Steel looked like inside. There's the water. There's us falling through it. Aaaaaand any second now, I'm gonna break the game. [this happens] Yup. Isn't this game great, folks?
    • In a similar vein, he screws himself over in a later mission by taking us on an actual tour. Of water and fog.
      Jon: So I guess we'll take what little time we have left and explore the vast... ocean... of Metropolis. Where the hell are all the buildings? [Beat] Okay. So this is Metropolis, apparently Aquaman hangs out here... there's the water. Fog under the water. Believable... I guess. Except for those triangles. You can — [starts laughing] —see the walls! You can see the boundaries of Metropolis!
  • "Aren't you glad I decided to show this to you guys? 'Go ahead, play Superman, it'll be great! You'll love it! Oh, you'll have fun playing it!'"
  • "Damn his hoola-hoop plans!"
  • Jon's explanation of how he came across a Superman 64 strategy guide.
    Jon: You probably can't find [a copy of the strategy guide] unless you look online or you know some very deranged people... and I do.
    Subtitle: Thanks, Dan.
    • "I know more about this game than the guide does, which is really depressing... and makes it hard to sleep at night."
  • Jon walks into the Braniac boss room, collects health... and hears glass shatter. He immediately starts laughing.
    Jon: [through laughter] What the fuck was that?
  • "Each piece of paper - which magically disappears after you've read it, because apparently you've put it in your Superpocket or some other... where are the pockets on S- I don't even want to know where Superman has pockets."
  • Jon hamming it up during his bio of Lex Luthor.
    Jon: In fact, one time, when no one was looking, Lex Luthor stole forty cakes. I know! He took forty cakes! That's as much as four tens! And That's Terrible.
    Subtitle: Much like this joke.
  • Jon getting distracted by the map of the world in Stage 4.
    Jon: I swear, that map is straight out of GoldenEye (1997)! Maybe a different color, but that map looks straight out of it.
    [screen switches to a comparison]
    Subtitle: I was thinking of Control, not Bunker 2. Also, they don't look the same at all.
    Jon: [as the game resumes] Then again, it was just a map of the world, so I could be imagining it.
    [screen switches back to the comparison]
    Subtitle: You totally were.
  • "That was not a boss fight. Not by any stretch of the imagination. He walked into my fist."
  • "Oh no, I pushed him through the wrong part of the floor... ...that's a phrase I never thought I'd say."
    • "Is that forklift humping that robot!?"
      "Never Thought I'd Say That" Count: 2
  • "The conveyor belt still moves and... oh, that robot still move— what is that robot doing? Stop doing that to Superma— what are you doing? God, Superman is that robot! Oh no!"
  • "Now, for some reason, it's not doing it anymore, but — Superman, why are you humping the sky? Superman, why are you humping the floor? Get up! That's wrong! Get— there we go..."
    • "... He wasn't getting up for a second, I was getting concerned. Uh, w-well he was getting up but... ah-hem..."
  • "Let's get shot at and get hit in the underpants... double whammy right there..."
  • "Raise the roof, Superman! ...although I just threw it... So now we'll just steal some lights off the ceiling instead... which are also explosive. Of course. Okay, that one actually kind of makes sense."
  • "I have to get out of here super fast... oh, I see what I did there..."
  • Jon glitching himself into the ground where Lois is being held at the start of Chapter 6... and having Superman peek up her skirt. It has to be seen to be believed.
    Jon: Don't do it! Don't do it!
    [SHRIEK]
    Screen: He did it
    [SLAP]
  • "GunBoxHead"
  • Jon's reaction to one of Superman's freakouts.
    Jon: Now if you remember— [Superman glitches] ...the dance button.
  • "Hi Lois! Get out of the way, I need to save Lois."
  • "LOIS WHAT ARE YOU DOING, DON'T, YOU CAN'T FLY!!!"
  • When doing Metallo's bio, Jon describes him as being as somewhat forgettable compared to the other bosses in the game, and then gives examples of what makes the other bosses interesting. Said examples? Mala has "A Winning Personality" and Lex Luthor "Spends Entire Level In A Tube".
  • This moment during Stage 4:
    Jon: [uses Reprogrammation to convert an enemy to his side] Go get 'em! [gets shot by other enemies while his new partner does nothing] You are useless! [new partner shoots and kills an enemy] ...Maybe not. Go get 'em Charlie! [sees that all the enemies are dead] Thanks Charlie, that's a slap on the back for you! [punches his ally and kills him]
  • Generally, the Running Gag featuring a masterful spoof of the Batman (1966) "spinning Chest Insignia" Eye Catch, used with Superman's own insignia whenever he (alongside his player, Jon) has to start over doing everything again.
  • He reveals at the end of Stage 7 several glitches regarding rescuing hostages, all of which manage to be funnier than the last. He says you don't even need to take down the Shadows, you can just run around in circles, and shows that you can ignore and fly away from them and still pass the mission.
  • The entirety of the Darkseid fight in Stage 8. First he finds Darkseid while flying through the stage and proceeds to accidentally fly straight past him. The fight then starts with Jon just casually picking Darkseid up like a mannequin. It culminates after Jon does the fight proper, when he tries to pick up Darkseid's downed body. This inexplicably causes Superman to slip like he had just stepped on a Banana Peel and fall flat on his back while Darkseid is launched up through the ceiling. Jon is left baffled as to what the hell happened and where the hell Darkseid went for a good 20 seconds. He then frantically searches the stage trying to find where he landed, and upon finally locating him, knocks him out again and somehow delivers him to the now-nonexistent police for arrest after they exploded earlier.
  • Also in Stage 8, he considers the fact that the stage has three floors is important, and will be on the test. He isn't going to write it, though, so he encourages people to write the test and submit it to other people, e-mailing it to an address that flies quickly across the top of the screen and reads whydidyoupausethisvideotocheckthisthrowawayjoke@gmail.com.
  • Once again in Stage 8: Lex's Beach ball car.
  • In Stage 9, Jon chooses to show off the game's multiplayer mode as the in-flight movie with three friends. Due to how poorly-designed the game is, at one point Jon and Dan lose each other in the same room.
    • Before showing off the multiplayer, Jon mentions that the video for it was recorded 3 1/2 years ago. He then realizes that he hasn't spoken to one of his friends in the video in years, and quietly speculates that Superman 64 ruined their friendship.
  • In Stage 10, Jon demonstrates how, while Parasite can't be beaten immediately at the start of the stage by just punching him like any other boss, he can be killed by just tossing one of the boxes lying around at him. This of course softlocks the game, since he needs to be alive to progressnote . After reloading the stage, Jon questions why the boxes are even there if that can happen. He eventually gets his answer.
    Jon: [is activating the first of the three computers in Parasite's room] He will chase you down still-
    [as Jon moves on to the next computer, the camera pans to show Parasite chucking one of the boxes at Superman]
    Jon: Holy shit I have not seen him do that! *laughs* "You'll never get past me to punch in those codes!" ...Alright, you might've made your point.
    • To add to the hilarity, after the third computer is activated and the camera cuts back to Superman, another box barely flies into view, landing just a few inches away from where Superman was. Parasite had thrown another box... and missed, because the cutscene transition stopped the box's momentum.
  • When Explaining Parasite, Jon does the traditional Once an Episode commissioned art piece to showcase the character. According to the caption the image was made all the way back in 2013.
  • Since Stage 10 is where an Easy Mode run ends, Jon takes the opportunity to showcase a couple things related to that fact:
    • Switching to Normal Mode and then selecting the "Last Game" option from the main menu after getting the cutscene telling you to play on Normal Mode... causes you to skip Stage 11 and start Stage 12 instead. Conveniently, Stage 12 is also where the game ends on Normal Mode, and, you guessed it, you can just switch to Superman Mode, do the trick again, and skip to Stage 14- which is also convenient, since it's the final stage of the game. This means that you can technically just play through most of the game on Easy Mode, switching to Normal and Superman modes when necessary, and skipping the last two Ride stages entirely. This is great, especially because...
    • THERE ARE NO RINGS IN EASY MODE'S RIDE STAGES. You just follow the compass to a floating Superman emblem and start the mid-stage missions that way. Combined with the tricks that let you skip Stages 11 and 13, this makes the rings- perhaps the most reviled part of the game- totally optional.
    • The Any% speedrun route uses these tricks to go an hour faster than a speedrun on Superman Mode. Even funnier? The game's official BradyGames strategy guide also uses the mode switch tricks, causing the guide to not include walkthroughs for Stages 11 and 13.
  • Stage 10 was uploaded on April Fools' Day, due to the holiday some people thought it wasn't an actual episode. It was.
    • Bonus points goes to the Egg PAC (Art) Discord, where the admins turned their profile and the server icon into pictures of crabs, not knowing that crab enemies would appear in the episode, let alone knowing there'd be a Superman 64 upload that day.

    Mario Kart Wii 
  • [Jon gets a Thundercloud while chasing down Chris in the final seconds of the race]
    Chris: Aww, no, no!
    Jon: C'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon! Hey, Chris! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! [last-second pass]
  • Near the end of a different race, upon being informed of a blue shell headed his way:
    Jon: Wait, seriously? [alarm] Shit, no, no, no, no, [boom] nooo! [Jon places 2nd] DAMMIT!

    Battletoads Race versus SuperJeenius, PCULL44444, and NintendoCapriSun 
  • The mock Achievements in editing, highlighting some of the more gameplay-oriented and off-kilter moments throughout the race. Right off the bat as the race starts:
    Jeenius: Aw, shit...
    (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Language, Young Man!: First to curse in the race
  • The two "Fuck You Sound Barrier!" Achievement moments.
    • The first one, courtesy of Patrick:
      Pcull: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
      (Pcull44444) Achievement Unlocked! Fuck You Sound Barrier!: Make everyone go deaf
      Jeenius: I don't know what that was but it must've been good.
    • The second moment comes from Jake:
      NCS: Good, good. And we go up this way."
      Jeenius: NOOOOOOAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
      (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Fuck You Sound Barrier!: Make everyone go deaf
      Pcull: Holy crap...
      NCS: Hahahaha!
      Jeenius: I was right there! I was right — fuck!
      Pcull: That's the first time I've ever heard SuperJeenius yell that loudly.
    • And then, the followup:
      Jeenius: [after finding out that he's stuck in last and then dying again] AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
      (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Animorphs: I think he's part cat now...
      Jon: Whoa!
      Pcull: Holy crap... [tries to dodge the gas, but dies again] No don't hit me, no!
      NCS: P'zoned! Okay, not really, but...
      Jon: Holy crap, who just broke the sound barrier?
  • In Episode 1, Jake was having enough trouble in Turbo Tunnel already. He did not appreciate Patrick making incoherent noises to distract him. Even funnier is the Achievement that goes with it:
    Pcull: What? What? What? [incoherent gibberish] NostalgiaCritic [more gibberish]
    (Pcull44444) Achievement Unlocked! Perfect Imitation: Someone's getting hatemail
    Jon: [bursts into laughter]
    Jeenius: [hits a wall and dies] Fuck you, Patrick, I'm trying to pay attention here! God!
    Pcull: [Beat, makes more gibberish noises]
    Jeenius: [dies a third time in the same sequence and laughs] Fucking Patrick, I'm gonna kill you!
  • Jake loves snakes.
    • After much struggling in the fourth room, Jon tells him of a way to sequence break to the exit with a well-timed jump into spikes. The advice may have come somewhat later than Jake would've liked (though Jon admits a moment later it had just crossed his mind):
      Jeenius: ...Why didn't you tell me this an hour ago?!
      (Proton Jon) Achievement Unlocked! My Bad...: Should've said that earlier
      Pcull: 'Cuz he's trying to win!
      Jeenius: I know...
    • His reaction to finally clearing the Snake Pit and moving on to the next stage, Volkmire's Inferno:
      (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Cheating Death: Beat a level with no health
      Jeenius: Yes! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! Thank God!
      (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Only the Lonely: Only player to play a level
      Jeenius: Ahhhh! VOLKMIRE, SUCK MY BALLS! I'M ON YOU.
      (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Ladies?: He's quite the charmer
      [long, awkward silence]
      NCS: ...Wow.
    • Speaking of the snakes...
      Pcull: I live a blessed life of Battletoads failure!
      (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! It Was Worth It: Die to get farther in a level
      Jeenius: I live a blessed life of I'm-Not-On-Snakes-Anymore!
    • The snakes return in Achievement form several episodes in.
      Jeenius: Sprint never should have been implemented in this game. That is the single one thing that kills me.
      (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! I Thought It Was Snakes?: You were thinking it too
  • In Episode 3, Patrick complains about the rubber ducks not turning around after being hit, and Tim responds:
    NCS: What do you think they are, Christians?
    (NintendoCapriSun) Achievement Unlocked! Turn The Other Cheek: Matthew 5:38–42 NIV translation
  • Later in the same episode, Patrick briefly becomes Scatman. Which leads into a discussion about what happens when you remix a remix.
  • Patrick's genuine freak-out at the rubber ducks:
    "OHMYGODTHERUBBERDUCKIE'SATTHETOP!"
  • Patrick's random swearing is always good for a laugh. "HOLY BALLS MONKEY SACK ASS MONKEY!"
  • The predictable (and abundant) jokes about the game itself.
    Pcull: Fuck. Shitty tits ass mother... dick. [Beat] Piss.
    Jeenius: Yeah! What Patrick said!
    Jon: Yeah, that's a good rebuttal. I agree. As a counter-argument: Battletoads.
    • Further in, we get:
      Jeenius: I'm not gonna say it's a bad idea, I'm just gonna say it hurts my soul.
      Jon: Oh, well, that's — that's just what Battletoads does, man.
      Jeenius: Yeah...
      Jon: Remember, all's fair in love and Battletoads.
    • Speaking of love and Battletoads...
      Jeenius: Water wheels, it is time to put yourself inside of me.
      Pcull: [Beat] What.
      Jon: I don't think that's how Battletoads works.
      Jeenius: The cartridge works that way...
    • And the obligatory Achievement:
      (Pcull44444) Achievement Unlocked! Life Imitates Battletoads: Hurt yourself in real life
  • Tim having a temporary Heroic BSoD:
    NCS: [after a long silence, walks up to an enemy] Just kill me.
  • This exchange when Patrick dies to the Deadly Gas:
    Pcull: NO! THE. GAS.
    NCS: The gas? Oh I can help you with that, maybe.
    Pcull: Oh, Tim. No Tim.
    Jeenius: I think he has plenty.
    Pcull: If your gas kills me I'll lose my infinite lives.
  • Patrick makes his move:
    Pcull: Okay, game face. Game face. I got this! NONONO I DON'T GOT THIS! I DON'T GOT THIS.
    Jeenius: Patrick never had this.
    Jon: Got cocky, didn't you?
    Pcull: No, I didn't get cocky... I got hopeful.
    (Pcull44444) Achievement Unlocked! Hope Rides Alone: You don't got this
  • As it turns out, the race was a pretty pivotal event for Patrick. It starts off when he avoids getting sucked into a fan in Intruder Excluder:
    Pcull: Oh god, Oh my god, that was the luckiest thing that's ever happened to me in my life!
    [a few minutes later, he barely avoids getting zapped by electricity]
    Pcull: Oh my god, that was the luckiest thing that's ever happened to me.
    NCS: ...So the two luckiest things that ever happened to you in your life were in the past five minutes?
    [later on in the next video, a fish kills him by knocking him into some spikes]
    Pcull: GOD, you can't be serious! That was the biggest fail of my life!
    Jeenius: Man, a lot of "of your lifes" are happening in this video. Or this... project.
    Pcull: This project is just so momentous on my existence!
  • The response Jon gets to "Are you okay?"
    Jeenius: NO!
    NCS: Shit. Man...
    Jeenius: Save me, mommy!
  • Patrick's amazement at actually getting to a boss.
    Pcull: Oh my god, I'm at a boss. WhatdoIdowhatdoIdowhatdoIdo?
    Jeenius: You kill it!
  • At one point, Tim sings a little tune to himself. Then this happens:
    Jon: What song are you singing?
    [at that exact moment, NCS is just barely killed by a gas trap]
    NCS: Agh! I choked on dispersed... cloud smoke.
    [Beat]
    Jon: ...I've never heard that song.
    Pcull: That's...
    Jeenius: That's a good song. It was #1 hits in the 50s. I choked on~ dispersed cloud smoke~!"
  • The moment this starts up, you just know what's coming:
  • More Catchphrase/Call-Back humor:
    Pcull: I forgot it was there so I jumped over the pit and it landed on my head as I was over the pit.
    Jeenius: You did not just jump me over the pit.
    NCS: Wonderful.

    Jon: Oh, fuck you.
    Pcull: [as he gets zapped] And I'm gonna die. I don't even know how to hit this thing! I don't even know how to kill this thing!
    Jon: Doesn't matter; you check-pointed.
    Pcull: ...did I really? That's awesome.
    Jon: The boss is a checkpoint.
    NCS: Jeez...
    Pcull: ...am I in the lead?!
    (Pcull44444) Achievement Unlocked! Slow On The Uptake: You didn't realize that?
    Jon and NCS: YES.
    Pcull: OH MY GOD I'M IN THE LEAD!
    • Similarly, when Jon regains the lead in The Revolution...
      Jon: So is it the first cloud that you're having problems with, Patrick?
      Pcull: Yeah, the green one.
      Jon: Okay, cool, 'cause I just killed it.
      (Proton Jon) Achievement Unlocked! Wow: This guy sounds like a dick

    (NintendoCapriSun) Achievement Unlocked! What Does This Thing Do?: Just stare at the bomb
    NCS: [after several seconds] Oh, was I supposed to get it first?
    • While we're on the subject, Tim's unforeseen declaration of entertainment.
      NCS: This rat level's fun — I'm likin' it!
      Jon: Really? I've never heard anyone say they've enjoyed Rat Race.
      (NintendoCapriSun) Achievement Unlocked! Stockholm Syndrome: Battletoads broke him
    • There's also this charming Rat Race-related exchange:
      NCS: Dude! Stupid gas things! Quit farting in my face!
      Jeenius: You like it, Tim. Don't deny it.
      NCS: [distractedly] Yeah, I s'pose...
      [Jon starts laughing]
      Jeenius: I KNEW IT!
  • Episode 5 gives us the latest in the long line of Patrick's Hope Spots.
    Pcull: Check point, please? Check point my buns? Check point on my buns?
    Jon: Kill yourself and check!
    Pcull: This has got to be a check point. There's, like, a cloud that's blowing on me...
    Jon: Yeah, you got that check point by then.
    Pcull: [dies] Okay, I'm dead... so... I hope it's a check point. [respawns] Aaaaand.... it's not! It's not.
    Jon: Really?
    [Pcull dissolves into laughter]
  • Jake demonstrating his lady-charming skills. Again.
    Pcull: NO! I hit you, you dirty slut!
    Jeenius: It's not nice to hit sluts. Sluts are women too.
    (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Girl Power!: He's got your back, ladies
    Pcull: Women are sluts too.
    [silence]
    Jeenius: It's no wonder you're single.
  • The singing makes a triumphant return and Patrick puts his foot in his mouth.
    Pcull: [singing] I can't talk 'cause I'm concentrating. I keep dying 'cause I am... masturbating...
    (Pcull44444) Achievement Unlocked! Too Much Information!: Too many Good Vibrations
  • Battletoads defies description.
    Jeenius: There are no words.
    Jon: No words can describe Battletoads. Except "Battletoads".
    Pcull: And "fuck".
    Jon: That too.
  • There's one segment where Tim is at the end of the Terra Tubes and everybody goes silent as he narrates his thought process. Naturally, it ends poorly.
    NCS: Here we go, here we go — to the right. That's right. Now to the left again. That's right. Now to the right. That's right. Now to the left again. That's right. Now to the right— [lands on spikes] WHAT?
    [Beat, everybody else starts laughing]
    Jon: I take it it didn't go according to plan.
    NCS: Crap.
  • Jake's identity crisis in the face of non-Battletoads conversation.
    Jeenius: Argh, people are chatting in IRC and I want to chat with them, but I can't 'cause I'm Battletoads!
    (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Addicted to Battletoads: "Can't chat, dying too much"
    Jon: 'Cause you are Battletoads.
    Jeenius: I am Battletoads.
    Jon: You have become the game.
    Pcull: The only way you can win, is you become the game.
    Jeenius: Exactly. Patrick understands!
    • Shortly after that, Jon offers an interesting insight into his values.
      Jeenius: You know that friend who's never on Skype, and then he's on Skype but you can't talk to him because you're... busy playing Battletoads?"
      Jon: I think that's a legitimate reason not to talk to someone. "I'm sorry, I'm playing Battletoads, you'll have to come back later."
  • A moment of It Makes Sense in Context courtesy of Tim and Patrick:
    NCS: Jeez, what was that? I was killing you and then you killed me.
    Pcull: You're not allowed to kill me when I'm killing you!
  • Patrick goes remixing on us again:
    Pcull: Oooohhhhhdodododododododiediediediedie!
    Jon: That's it. You told that thing.
  • Jake asks the question that's been on everybody's mind.
    Jeenius: Why are we doing this? I still don't really know...
  • Before the check point meltdown, Jon 'reminisces'.
    Jon: [as an old man] Back in my day, we didn't have checkpoints!
    Jeenius: [Beat] I believe that.
  • Everyone finally finds something they can agree on.
    Pcull: For serious.
    Jon: For realsies.
    Pcull: For—
    Jeenius: FUUUUUCK!
    Pcull: Yes.
    Jon: I agree.
    Jeenius: And that's all I have to say about that.
  • The ultimate gas-related award:
    Achievement Unlocked! The Timothy Bishop Award: Die 30 times to the gas

    Jeenius: NOOOO!
    Jon: ...okay.
    (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Well...: At least he's honest
  • More of Jon's valuable advice.
    Pcull: Alright. I've got a stick! Now I have the Stick of Happiness!
    Jon: Now you might stand a good chance.
    Pcull: Annnnd I died.
    Jeenius: Or not.
    Jon: You've gotta stay alive, too. That's the other trick.
  • Jake's lesson in give-and-take.
    Jeenius: No. You give Battletoads an inch, it takes your asshole.
    [silence]
    Pcull: I don't want my asshole taken.
    Jeenius: Exactly! Don't give Battletoads an inch!
  • Patrick has a That Came Out Wrong moment and, without missing a beat, takes advantage of it.
    Pcull: NO! He went behind me and then rammed me in the butt — That's What She Said.
  • This game stops sobriety...
    Jon: Times like this, I wish I drank...
  • Jake's mind wanders late into the run.
    Jeenius: I really wish Battletoads was porn right now.
    Pcull: ...what.
    • Later on:
      Jon: Battletoads is not supposed to be this seductive, sir.
      Jeenius: Yes it is, sir!
  • Insight into the dynamics of The Runaway Guys.
    Jeenius: Is this how the Runaway Guys feel?
    Jon: Yeah. Pretty much.

  • We go around the world in 15 seconds.
    Jeenius: Oiiiii, Isakku! Nan da miriya.
    Pcull: Sacre bleu!
    Jon: That is not the same language, sir.
    Pcull: NOOOOOOOOOO!
    Jon: Neither is that.
  • Everyone takes a trip to the world of anime.
    Jeenius: You can still do this, Tim. I have faith in you. Much more than I have faith in me.
    Jon: But aren't you supposed to believe in you who believes in me?

    Jon: I think Tim's fallen asleep. I can hear him — sounds like he's snoring.
    NCS: No, I'm still here. I'm just... watching something.
    Pcull: Are you watching a guide?
    Jon: He's actually replaced his run with a Speed Run.
    Jeenius: [laughing] Yes, exactly!
    (NintendoCapriSun) Acheivement Unlocked! Join The Nintendo Fun Club: Look up a strategy guide
  • Jake manages to glitch out the game and get his toad walking on water near the end of one segment in the Terra Tubes level. Repeatedly. He barely seems to notice, but the achievements take note. Somehow, Jake's obliviousness makes it more amusing.
    (SuperJeenius) Achievement Unlocked! Water Walkin': Time to defy physics!
  • "No, this is Patrick!"
  • This exchange:
    Jon: I still stand by my "Power Rangers villain explosion" death idea.
    Jeenius: FUCK!
    Pcull: That is the best death.
    NCS: [laughs] That was a really good "fuck" just now.
    Pcull: That's What She Said!

    Mario's Early Years 
  • The "robot child" narrator.
  • In Fun with Letters, the pair head off to "Sentence Land", which allows the player to pick random words and have the "robot child" narrator read them out, Mad Libs-style. They have a lot more fun creating completely random and nonsensical sentences than they do actually doing what the game actually wants them to do, like "The jet is wet." and "Ran ran away."
    Game: Luigi is in the bag!
    Kelekin: Apparently we're actually now in Idiom World.
  • Later on in Sentence World, they are prompted to complete the sentence, "The Princess has a big _____." The options are "Cup", "Lid", and "Box". Then they notice where the box is placed with regards to the Princess. You can hear Jon full-on collapse with laughter.
    YouTube Comment from DMAN123223: Peach held her big CUPS while Mario put his MOP in Peach's wet BAG.
    • Actually, almost all of Sentence Land is gold.
    Jon: The bug is on the...
    Jon and Kelekin: BUG!
    Jon: Maybe we should leave this room...
    Kelekin: Apparently we reached Inappropriate World.
    [...]
    Jon: The Princess has a big what? [pauses] ...Do you wanna answer this one? You're welcome to it.
    Kelekin: [silence] I think it's the lid.
    • The noises that Jon dissolves into after a little too long in Sentence World.
  • In Preschool Fun, in Body World, they discover that they can click on the sun. Which... does a suggestive eyebrow wiggle at them.
    Jon: Oh god! OH god, it's winking at us! Suggestive sun! No!
    Kelekin: He's like, [seductively] "Hey kids..."
    Jon: [in a creepy voice] "Hey kids!"
    Kelekin: "You like the heat?"
    Jon: "Want to watch Mario take off his suspenders?"
    Kelekin: I don't want to go to Body World anymore!
  • Later on, Kelekin admits to playing along with Body World's instructions, like "clap your hands" and "wiggle your nose". Many watchers admitted in the comments section to doing the same.
  • The very first part of Fun With Letters, when they start fooling around with the game's intentions.
    Game: You found a fish that starts with F. F.
    [Jon and Kelekin start laughing]
    Kelekin: F! F!
    Jon: Fu! Fu! Q.
  • Anything that has to do with "Icky Iggy". Anything.
    Kelekin: Icky Iggy!
    Jon: Yay! Icky Iggy! [starts laughing] What the heck? Look at that afro!
    Kelekin: That is— oh my god, I wish I had that hairstyle. I know what you have to do next Halloween!
    Jon: I am not dressing up as Icky Iggy!
    [...]
    Kelekin: I just wanna say it, like, ten times. IckyIggyIckyIggyIckyIggyIcky— I can't.
  • The dubstep of the past.
    Kelekin: Wubwubwubwubwubwubwub— igloo!
  • Both Jon and Kelekin making up alliterative titles for the Alphabet World representatives.
    Kelekin: Energy efficient Elephant!"
    Jon: F. Freakin' fish.
    [...]
    Game: N. N. Noisy Nest.
    Jon: I agree. O! Oily Octopus!
    Jon: P! Princess—
    Kelekin: Promiscuous Peach!"
    [...]
    Jon: ...why are those shoes under an umbrella?
    Kelekin: It's an Untie umbrella.
    Jon: Why would they show kids a volcano?
    Game: V. V. Violent Volcano.
    Kelekin: As opposed to the friendly ones.
    [...]
    Kelekin: Y! Yodeling Yoshi!
Jon: Pleeeease! It would have been so good if it was Yodeling Yoshi.
  • The first encounter with the monkey.
    Game: You found it!
    Jon: I found a monkey!
    Kelekin: Wow. [Beat] Wait...
  • Jon's little mistake while identifying animals hawking insurance.
    Kelekin: It's the Gilbert Gottfried duck!"
    Jon: Geico!
    Kelekin: Geico? It's Aflac.
  • The Supermarket Piranha Plant and Jon's complete bewilderment.
    Jon: Why'd a— wha—? Where'd that Piranha Plant come from?
  • Kelekin's proposal for a new world.
    Kelekin: I suppose Opposite World is better than Double-Negative World.
    Jon: Double-Negative World would be great!
    Kelekin: [imitating the 'Robot Child'] Find the one that is not not hard!
  • Pretty much any time they get distracted by Luigi.
    Kelekin: I've never really stacked up a bunch of crayons to find out if they'd be good to sleep on, but—
    Jon: Luigi's got your back.
    • There's also this one:
      Jon: Luigi's sleeping in the vegetable aisle. Wake up, Luigi! We need to learn!
  • Another faux pas - this time concerning the lyrics to Baa Baa Black Sheep/Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
    Jon: [singing] Mary had a little lamb—
    Kelekin: Twinkle twinkle little star!
    Jon: Oh, god, I failed preschool! That's my horrible secret!
  • One of the last things we hear from Fun With Letters.
    Jon: [with Mario standing on the pipe, under Peach] U! Upskirt! And on that note...
    Kelekin: I feel like I learned a lot today.
  • Jon trying to figure out what was coming out of a Warp Pipe to talk to him.
    Jon: Th—that was Bowser's butt. It just stuck... Did you see that? It stuck out of the pipe... [sees it again] No, that's a... carrot?
  • Kelekin unenthusiastically reading out the cow's speech bubble in an apathetic "moo." at the beginning of the first video.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES) 
  • He beats the game and doesn't realize it for several seconds - even after commenting on Shredder dying.
    Jon: That's fucking right, you fucking melt in that ... Why did you explode? I don't fucking care, you did. ... I-I ... What was the point of that? Whatever, you're fucking dead. Did I just beat the game?
  • His attempt to explain what's going on upon reaching the lair is completely nonsensical... which makes it awfully entertaining.
    Jon: My house! Master! Shredder has, somehow, conveniently set the VCR with this footage. That is set to go off as soon as we walk in. Also, his hand is somehow sticking out of the TV... that's damn impressive. I think he's actually sitting in the TV itself— they just forgot to actually, like, check, see if it was him and when they all went away to try to find Splinter, he just got out and left.
  • There's also this:

    Ninja Gaiden 
  • Ryu must go through a maze to find Irene in the second game, so Jon takes it literally and animates a whole sequence of Ryu going through a literal maze.
    • Jon has a Screw This, I'm Outta Here moment during Act 5 of the second game, so Ryu decides someone who will play while Jon is gone: Arnold Schwarzenegger.
  • In the few videos where he has co-commentators, they just have too much fun with the fact that his name is the same as a certain Planeteer. Particularly when a power-up with that Planeteer's element is involved.

    Crash 'n' the Boys 
  • While setting up, they wonder whether it's possible to leave the 400 Meter Hurdles out. Naturally, that event comes up first.
  • The epicness that is Clint.
  • While discussing how much the Thornley Team cheats, Bubba messes up one of his hammer throws and gets dragged along by the ball.
  • Everyone is amazed at how easily Swimming turns into a Curb-Stomp Battle.
    • Clint vs. Dove. Turns out that "Dove" isn't quite as impressive a Battle Cry as "Cliiiiiiiint!", leading to alternatives like "Bar soap!" and "Get cleaned!"

    Kirby Super Star 
  • The first LP, even though it's noticeably different from later (especially the first parts), had one moment in The Great Cave Offensive where Jon paused the entire LP to go get a pizza, leaving Player 2 sitting by himself for a good five minutes. When he comes back, he then takes another few minutes to eat the pizza before finally continuing the LP.

    Donkey Kong (Game Boy) 
  • In Episode 3, he repeatedly pre-empts people in the comments making references that annoy him, such as when the game features Mario being hit with a poison mushroom and when a level has "100 SECONDS?!"
  • In Episode 4, Jon shares his experience of Cyberscoring.

    Gunstar Heroes (Extreme run with The Completionist) 
  • Him and Jirard getting damaged by Melon Bread. A boss they previously thought couldn't hurt you.
  • The Running Gag that this is mostly Jon's playthrough since Jirard keeps dying.
  • Jirard's steadily increasing awe as Jon starts to play through the Seven Force bosses, Jon himself expecting to die at any time so Jirard can re-enter as Player 2, yet it never happens.
  • Jirard keeps trying to provide moral support with phrases like "You got this, you're good" to Jon, but Jon keeps telling him not to say it - as it resembles his own weaponised Tempting Fate tactic he uses in The Runaway Guys.
  • Jon's appearance in Jirard's episode of Gunstar Heroes on his channel before this LP was made of funny too, especially when Jon makes a "BEARS!" joke. Greg was not amused.
    Jon: I AM NOT BRUCE WILLIS!

    Resident Evil 5 with SuperJeenius 
  • The Running Gag of Chris Redfield apparently being a football star.
    • Special mention goes to Jon using "FOOTBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL!" as a battle cry when rushing to save a dying Sheva in the second video.
      • Mixed with a victory fanfare and the words "Touchdown" appearing onscreen when he's successful.
  • Building on this, the tagline Jon made for the LP's playlist:
    "Let's Play Resident Evil 5: I team up with SuperJeenius to save Africa from Bio-Terrorism through the power of sports."
  • The unintentional Running Gag of Jon getting things wrong about the game when he talks about its mechanics or where items are hidden (etc.) and having to correct himself in post-production annotations. He starts to lampshade this by Episode 6, referring to it as "Conversations with Future Me".
  • Jake claiming that Sheva's high heels are the most lethal weapons in the game.
  • Jon spamming the "Come on!" command pretty much any time he has the opportunity to.
    Chris Redfield: HURRY!!!
  • Jake in Part 2 uses a knife on a downed transformer box.
  • After Jon tells Jake that there is an achievement for knocking a crossbow bolt out of the air with your knife, Jake becomes obsessed with trying to get it.
  • This little gem, as they are trying to fend off a truck trying to run them over:
    Jon: Move back, you idiot! [shoots the explosive barrels, truck falls over]
    Jake: Nope. [gets run over by the falling truck, but survives with a decent chunk of his HP still left] Problem?
  • Jon calling Josh Stone Carlton from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
  • In Part 6, Jake refers to the Uroboros enemies as "Zigzagoons", to Jon's baffled reaction. (As Jake says, "because they zig, and they zag, and they're goons.")
    • Following this, Jon refers to Pokémon as "little cute monsters that fight each other and want to take over the world."
  • The dancing enemy in Part 6.
  • In Part 7, immediately after SuperJeenius talks about how much he enjoys watching enemies' heads explode and Jon suggests he needs therapy, he gets an achievement for exploding heads.
  • In Part 8, this little dialogue bit between the two of them that sounds like something you'd see on a sitcom.
    Jon: I think we're gonna meet one of your favorite enemies here.
    Jake: Oh, spiders?
    Jon: No.
    Jake: [relieved] Oh, okay. [beat] Dogs?
    Jon: We already met dogs.
    Jake: Invisibles?
    Jon: No.
    Jake: [beat] The Chinese?
    Jon: What?
    Jake: [cracking up] I dunno, I'm out of ideas...
    Jon: What version of Resident Evil have you been playing?
    Jake: Biohazard.
    Jon: ...Touché.
  • Part 9 marks the start of Jake's obsession with electrocuting things with the stun rod cattle prod.
  • In Part 10, there's a moment where Jake is holding onto a lever to keep a drawbridge down for Jon. It soon turns sour.
    Jake: I really want to drop this out from under you so bad.
    Jon: You... can, but of course that would be a dumb--
    ["Checkpoint" appears on the screen, and Jake lets go of the lever, killing Jon]
    Jon: WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!
    Jake: WE JUST GOT A CHECKPOINT!
    [beat, Jake starts cracking up]
    Jon: ...Aw, you're a dick.
  • From Part 11:
    Jake: Hey! Gold in the grass! That's nice! [gets damaged] Oh! Snakes in the grass! That's not very nice at all!
    Jon: I think you just learned what that phrase means.
    • Jon discovers to his glee that Chris Redfield has a neckbreaker attack. "DUUUUDE! That was BADASS!"
  • From Part 12:
    Jake: You are pretty good at turning things football man.
    Jon: One of the parts of my training. Eat 30 raw eggs and turn a wheel.
  • From Part 13, when Jake shoots an enemy, only for it to turn out to be a Plaga (a tentacle monster that bursts from the decapitated neck):
    Jake: Oh, this guy has a face. Er, well, he doesn't really have a—
    Jon: How dare that guy have a face.
    • Just before that, Jon shoots an enemy through Jake (as friendly fire is turned off) and then shortly afterwards gets hit hard: "Ow! HE BURNED MY FOOT! THAT JERK!"
    • Jake takes over a turret and starts blasting away at a distant figure... only for it to turn out to be Jon.
    • During the boss fight with the transformed Irving, Jon's moment of Tempting Fate when he says Irving has terrible aim, only to be immediately hit and almost killed by a tentacle.
  • In Part 14:
  • In Part 15:
    • This moment of Shaped Like Itself:
      Jake: Oh, it's a square. I like squares. They have four equal sides... and they're shaped like a square.
    • "BOOB LOCATOR GO!"
    • This exchange after Jake inadvertently summons enemies:
      Jon: What did you do?!
      Jake: I made people.
      Jon: You made people?"
      Jake: Yeah, I'm a girl. It happens.
      Jon: Little too fast.
      Jake: Too furious?
      Jon: YES! DEFINITELY!
    • The conversation with "Future Jon".
    • After Jake makes more geometry references, Jon says he feels like he's playing a game with Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory... only for Jake to reveal that his mom has said the same thing. And even matched the other three LPers who did Four Swords Adventures with Jake to other characters from the show.
  • Much like the aforementioned neckbreaker moment, there's Jon's astounded reaction to Chris' haymaker finisher in Part 16:
    Jon: Oh, dude! That was a fuckin' Falcon Punch right there!
    • While dodging the sun beams, Jake runs into an alcove and sees two spiders on the wall, freaking him out so much that he backs out of the alcove and gets hit by a beam.
      Jake: Worth It
    • Jon's confusion over the game's use of the word "trilliant". He looks it up and finds it's an actual word used to refer to gemstones cut into a triangular shape. He challenges the viewers to try and find ways to insert it into random conversations.
  • In Part 17, Jake accidentally kills Jon by redirecting a laser wrongly in the laser mirror puzzle. Jon is outraged... because he had been planning to do it to Jake to get him back for the bridge incident.
    • Later in the same puzzle, Jon gets trapped in the center area by the lasers. Jake comes up with a complicated plan to get him out (ignoring Jon's much safer one) and ends up killing him again. This earns them a B rank for the level.
      Jon: B! Because you burned me to death! B STANDS FOR BURN!
  • In Part 18, two words: Dramatic Goat.
  • In Part 19, Jake is nearly killed by an enemy machine-gun and Jon manages to heal him with an item at the last minute - which gets Jon an achievement called "Lifeguard", prompting him to decide that Chris Redfield is also David Hasselhoff.
    • They joke about Not Using the "Z" Word, then Jake refers to the enemies as "Not-Zees", which Jon hears as "Nazis".
    • After Jake gets hit with a flash grenade:
      Jake: Well, I'm... white.
      Jon: [laughs] Well...technically...
    • When fighting the Lickers, Jon starts singing "Point-blank sniping, I am running now!" to the tune of the Transformers theme.
    • Also during that fight, Jon gets caught by a Licker's tongue and Jake is standing right next to him so he... uses an herb.
  • Part 20 has Jake being killed by a Reaper instantly, and as the game shows Sheva being impaled multiple times, Chris stands by and just... looks on and doesn't do a damn thing. Jon concludes that Sheva's death was entertaining to Chris.
    • Jon and Jake find an emblem in a dumpster and waste many bullets trying to shoot it due to how it's awkwardly placed. The emblem is literally within arm's reach and the duo have so much trouble shooting it. Jake even uses an incendiary grenade on the emblem, only for it to do nothing to the emblem!
  • Jon and Jake's Epic Fail in Part 21 where they take 5 attempts to kill the Reapers... accompanied by the Duck Hunt music each time. note 
    • In the same episode, Jon and Jake's reactions to finding "instructions" for the Uroboros virus were pretty funny.
    • Jon accidentally using a shotgun to shoot an emblem and scaring the both of them with the noise.
  • The battle with Wesker and Jill features the return of the "FOOTBAAAAAAAAAAAAALL" battle cry as Jon rushes to save Jake. It doesn't work.
    • At one point during the fight, Jake randomly stops in the middle of the hallway to check a light for treasure.
    • Then, during the Jill-only part of the fight, Jake attempts to shoot the device on her chest. With a Magnum. Strangely enough, it doesn't work as intended. Jon is displeased.
    • Also, the first time Jake kills her.
      Jon: Make the shot count.
      Jake: One more. One shot...
      [Jill falls over dead]
      Jon: You... killed her.
      Jake: WHAT?! Damn it! [beat] I made the shot count.
  • "If it can be punched, do it" —Chris Redfield, 2013
  • Jake's outrage in Part 25 when an enemy still lives after Jake shot him in the face with a grenade launcher. Twice.
  • In Part 26, it's Jon and Jake's reaction to Uroboros Aheri.
    Jon: Jake?
    Jake: Yo?
    Jon: Run.
    • And shortly afterward.
      Jake: Jon?
      Jon: What?
      Jake: Run.
  • Part 28 has Jon being instantly killed by Wesker with a punch through the chest. Sheva can be seen in the scene standing next to Wesker and just watches him kill Chris, almost as if she is getting revenge for a few parts back when Chris watched Sheva being impaled by a Reaper.
    • When Wesker is hanging off Sheva's leg and she starts to fall, Chris has a flashback of Jill, yells his Big "NO!", and dives to save her. Jon chooses to ruin the moment by saying "No! I'm catching the ball this time!" This sends Jake into a silent laughing fit, telling Jon that it was supposed to be touching. Jon's defense? "I'm sorry, you can't be touching while I'm here."
  • Episode 29 has Jon and Jake's second attempt to beat Wesker after Jake died in the previous episode. Due to low ammunition, they're reduced to attacking the man covered in slithering snake-creatures with a knife and a stun baton, and it worked. They would have won if one of Wesker's attacks didn't kill them.
    • First Jon, and then Jake, keep accidentally hitting the "Come on!" taunt when they're trying to jump. "This is not the time for coming on!"
    • "Josh and Jill went up the hill to fetch a helicopter!"
    • Jake thinks he sees a treasure glinting in the rescue helicopter and Jon has to stop him from wanting to shoot up the helicopter to get it.
    • Jake on how he doesn't find the Uroboros as scary as spiders...
      Jake: It's just tentacles, I'm used to this.
      Jon: WHAT?! Too much information!
    • "We just killed Wesker's stunt double! Plot twist!"
    • Jon and Jake having a giant snark-a-thon on how ludicrous the finale is, particularly when the helicopter shows up in the volcano.
    • Their ratings for the game. Jake rates it Resident Evil/10 and Jon rates it Football/10.
  • In Episode 30, Jake attempts to play the piano to get a door open. Jon, however, decides it's necessary to have Chris call for Jill, causing Jake to mess up from laughing too much.
    Jake: Dammit, Jon! Stop pointing at the door!
    Jon: Ahahahahaha! Already worth it.
    • At the beginning of that episode, Jon explains to Jake when and where the chapter takes place in the Resident Evil chronology. When Jake lets slip a spoiler for the chapter, Future Jon censors it out with an airhorn noise.
    • Any time Jon hits the taunt button and gets the most appropriate possible taunt in response to something, such as when Jake pretends to abandon Jon locked in a cell:
      Jake: I'm going to leave you here now.
      Chris: Thanks!
    • Jon declares see-through boobs the "brand new invention of the future." A brief discussion ensues as to whether it would be an improvement, with Jake insisting that see-through boobs would just be invisible.
    • Jake investigates a fireplace.
      Jake: [reading the on-screen text] Someone was burning something here.
      Jake: Someone was burning someone here.
      Jake: Someone was burning here.
    • A series of fire-themed jokes culminated in Jake saying "Who killed the fire? The dinosaurs? note " Jon starts to crack up, then reminds him that the relevant LP wouldn't be uploaded yet. Jake points out it would make for a good Rewatch Bonus.
  • In Episode 31, Jake gets a "FOOOTBAAAALL!" moment of his own when he manages to save Jon in the nick of time. Complete with an "APPLAUSE" message on screen, airhorn sound effects, and a voice clip of Wesker screaming "CHRIIIIIIS!"
    • Just after that, Jake breaks open a box and grabs the flash grenade just when the enemy slams his anchor on him, leaving him completely unharmed due to invincibility frames.
      Jon: Oh, now I'm not even near you.
      Jake: That's ok, I had invincibility frames! [cracks up]
      Jon: Oh, you lucky bastard... I'd be angry if you weren't a beautiful human being and saved my life like that.
      Jake: Yeeaaaah!
    • Ladies and gentlemen, back by popular demand - Chris Redfield, eating an egg. [APPLAUSE]
    • Their joint reaction when Jake manages to knife a score star high up on the wall, which is so loud that the volume had to be drastically lowered in editing.
    • Jake's... fixation with stabbing corpses and repeatedly saying how good it feels.
      Jon: You worry me sometimes.
      • First thing Jake does after reacquiring a gun? Turn around and pump two bullets into the corpse's head.
    • The Funny Background Event in "What We Missed" where A.I.-controlled Chris empties his gun into Wesker's prone form.
    • The stinger has Jill serenely playing the piano while A.I. Chris gets pummeled by a large enemy.
  • In Episode 32, Jon and Jake spend the whole start of the episode debating who gets to play as which character, as Jake wants to keep playing as the girl. They end up switching controllers right before gameplay starts, and it turns out the DLC makes Jill Player 1 but puts her screen on the bottom after all.
    • Jon's gleeful reaction to Josh's melee attacks, which include multiple wrestling moves and a football tackle.
    • In an effort to conserve ammo, Jake reverts to his Psycho Knife Nut tendencies and becomes preoccupied with stabbing enemies for much of the DLC.
    • The Casual Danger Dialogue where Jon and Jake swap ammo while both stabbing a not-zombie.
  • In Episode 33, "I may have accidentally lit you on fire."
    • A discussion about melee attacks, set (vaguely) to the Pokémon theme song:
      Jake: ♪ Killing moves ♪
      Jon: ♪ Gotta punch 'em all ♪
      Jake: ♪ It's you and me ♪
    • Jon and Jake fight a not-zombie and send it flying into a building with simultaneous Backhand and Roundhouse moves. This comes complete with sports sound effects and a "SACKED!!!" message that appears on the screen.
      Jake: That was pretty hot. I'm slightly more attracted to you now, Josh. note 
  • In Episode 34, Jon shooting an enemy so hard that it somehow blasts the enemy through a doorway and slams the door on him.
    • Jake saves his rocket launcher for the whole fight until a boss near the end... and misses.
    • In a Call-Back to Jake's own LP of Resident Evil 4, when Doug the helicopter pilot is killed:
      Jake: Doug! No! He never got to tell us where the good bar is!
      Jon: ...All helicopter pilots know where all the good bars are?
      Jake: And none of them survive!
  • The stinger of the last episode is a clip of Wesker saying "You will give me an egg!" Oh, the glorious things that will come of that...

    • Episode 6: (in very, very turbulent airplane conditions) "Let it be known that, editing on a plane is a terrible idea."
    • Episode 7: After Jon states when the next video will be posted, the video crashes abruptly. It then has Funky Kong surfing at the end.
      Error Code 0x0184: User attempted to follow a schedule.
    • Episode 8: A picture of Bluster Kong gradually stretches and zooms in, accompanied with a Wilhelm Scream.

    • Episode 13: Yoshi with a pair of skis wiping out, flying across the screen.
    • Episode 14: Liu Kang does his bicycle kick across the screen, only for Yoshi's tongue to grab him and yank him off screen while screaming "GET OVER HERE!" A Blarg then appears in the corner and says "Toasty!"
    • Episode 15: Kamek and a Fly Guy fly across the screen and get dunked by Yoshi riding a Chomp Rock.
    • Episode 16: Baby Mario in Powerful Mario form rides the Chomp Rock that has Kamek stuck in it, and Kamek is released as he spirals out.

    • Episode 18: Giga Baby Bowser runs towards the screen... and an attack kitten runs out of his mouth. Yoshi then runs after it as Jon says "You're not even in this game!"
    • Episode 19: "18 Egg Cuts this episode". Said egg cuts chase Yoshi.
    • Episode 20: Yoshi gets surrounded by pillars on both sides, then one comes from above and finishes him.
  • In general, the arguments between Present Jon and Future Jon, especially in Episode 2 when Jon somehow manages to imply that he "is not a real person".
  • Jon plays a bonus minigame in the first episode but selects the card with Kamek (the losing option) first so immediately fails. When he gets the same minigame again, he uses Gambler's Fallacy and tries the same card twice more on the assumption Kamek must be somewhere else, only to get Kamek again both times. He becomes certain that Kamek is always there on every playing of the game and asks Future Jon to check...only for Future Jon to report that no, it is random, and Jon's just that unlucky.
  • At the start of Episode 2, he predicts what the comments of Episode 1 were, because he made Episode 2 in advance. He is completely wrong.
    Overall Score: F- See me after class.
  • During stage 1-4, he plays Blarg's voice clips from Tetris Attack to show why he likes Blarg...and he falls into the lava during said moment, complete with an "AUGH!" from the stupidity of his death. The annotation from Future Jon that follows drives it home.
    Solid impression, 4/5
  • Jon continually refers to the flashing eggs containing red coins as "Seizure Eggs".
  • Jon's reaction in Episode 4 when he finds out that the official name of the super mode where Baby Mario with a cape takes over after gaining a star is "Powerful Mario".
  • In Episode 6, after some Schedule Slip, Present Jon keeps making overly optimistic mentions of when he thinks the video will be out, only for Future Jon to keep snarkily correcting him.
    • Also in Episode 6, Future Jon can't find an official name for a terrain item, so he dubs it "Ceiling Sponge Cake".
  • In Episode 7, Jon's computer crashed and needed repairs, he went to MAGFest, and then got sick when he came home, in that order. He points out that at this point, fate obviously just doesn't like him making solo projects.
    • Early in the video, he questions who would give monkeys missiles. A picture of Funky Kong then appears on the screen, accompanied by the "Hai-YAH!" from his Donkey Kong Country theme.
  • In Episode 9, Jon was struggling with rebounding eggs to obtain a flower. When he finally does...
    Jon: I'm now a T.A. at Stormtrooper School.
    • Also in Episode 9, Jon's reaction to beating Naval Piranha the secret way.
  • In Episode 10, Jon's amazement at the fact that Goombas get flattened when stomped on... and that Yoshi can ride on them.
    • On a related note, Jon singing the Michigan J. Frog song.
  • In Episode 11, as he prepares to confront Marching Milde in his fort, he mockingly pretends that he is playing Super Smash Bros. and that Yoshi is actually going up against Kirby.
  • In Episode 15, Jon talks about his wisdom teeth problems, and instead of saying "after I'm anaesthetised" almost ends up saying "after I'm euthanised".
    • From the same episode, Jon playing through 5-Extra: Kamek's Revenge. That level is what prompts him to title the episode "The Downward Rage Spiral". Highlights include him missing a jump several times, as well as a moment from after running out of star power:
      Jon: Uh-oh... [breaks Baby Mario's bubble with an egg and grabs him] HA! No you don't! [Kamek swoops in and steals Baby Mario away again] Maybe you do! [Toadies grab Baby Mario and take him away] NO!!
  • Episode 16 was the third episode recorded in a row, having dealt with several frustrating mistakes in the past episodes including Kamek's Revenge, Jon is noticeably more snippy and unhappy.
    • At one point, Jon tries to get some red coins over spikes by rebounding an egg, except the ricochet misses one row of eggs and hits the ? bubble that makes the platforms spawn, blocking them off. Jon cuts back, and does the exact same thing from a completely different angle. Though thankfully he had gotten it that time, but it cements that even when he has impressive luck/skill, he still gets screwed over by it.
  • Jon toys with fate a bit too much in Episode 17, when he enters 6-6: The Deep, Underground Maze, one of the levels he's dreaded.
    Jon: Ugh. Push me off the stage. Just kill me. [Chomp Rock rolls him off screen and kills him by crush] WHOAH THAT CAN ACTUALLY KILL YOU!
    Future Jon: Well, it is a rolling boulder...
    • At the end of The Very Loooooong Cave, there are posts that must be ground-pounded to get the Red Coins inside, and Jon missed one (because it's an autoscrolling stage), so he had to replay the entire stage over again.
  • In Part 19, this exchange happens:
    [chime signaling all red coins have been collected]
    Jon: Okay. That is the best sound I could have heard right now. There's only one other sound that would be even better.
    Future Jon: This one? [Fuzzy sound]
    [falling block nearly causes him to fail]
    Jon: That's not the sound!
    Future Jon: Was it close though? [Blargg sound]
  • End of the second bonus video, Jon misses a red coin in Special 6 and has to redo the entire half-hour-long stage all over again. Where is the missing coin? Under the top of a Ground Pound-able post. In the opening autoscrolling portion. He pretty much explodes into an F-bomb filled rage.
    • Jon even had a hunch early on in the level.
  • Also in Part 20, we have Powerful Mario running down a cliff and into a death pit. Jon had no idea how to react.

    Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

    • Bonus Episode 2: The cast of the game get flattened by a giant attack kitten.
  • When he's explaining how he got involved with the Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Kickstarter as a promoter, he mentions how he responded in a calm and not at all fanboy manner.
    Jon's Email: OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD
    Caption: Actual response I sent.
    • Jon mentions that people who donate enough money to be listed in the credits under "Clan ProtonJon" will receive a special piece of in-game armor designed by him.
      Jon: And... yeah, I've already got plans for that. [Wesker Egg fades into view]
  • Episode 1: In Support of #IGAvania
    • Jon's exasperated response to how Soma gets rid of the last enemy in the opening cutscene:
    Jon: He's got a fucking knife! He's an 18-year-old high schooler; what the fuck is he doing with a knife!? Especially since he's on a date with his friend!
    • At one point Jon accidentally calls the main character Sora instead of Soma, prompting him to paste a picture of Sora from Kingdom Hearts over Soma's portrait.
  • Episode 2: The Cutest Army of the Night
    • Jon points out a background item that foreshadows something in the plot, but ends up thinking for about 20 seconds to recall what it is.
    [Chirping Crickets]
    Future Jon: .........seriously?
    • Jon finds a Student Witch soul, which sends out cats to attack. He is incredibly amused at how silly it sounds and sticks with it despite how high cost it is to summon a cat.
    Jon: GO, MY ATTACK KITTENS! Kill the Minotaur!
  • Episode 3: Like Stealing Candy From Monsters
    • Jon finds a weapon that is much like the weapon Voldo wields, and displays a picture of him with the following quote.
    Future Jon: Least disturbing Voldo picture I could find...
    • While fighting the Headhunter, Jon gets poisoned, and quickly uses his one anti-venom to get rid of it. Then he jumps into the exact same attack again.
  • Episode 5: Luck Makes No Sense
    • Jon shows off the Creaking Skull soul, which is the enemy's gigantic arm holding a bone; depending on the direction Soma faces, Jon explains the soul is also known as "the penis mightier."
    Jon: That's the note we go out on; our giant penis hand has just destroyed that flying head. God, this is disgusting!
  • Episode 7: Nonstop Soul Bonanza
  • Bonus Episode 1: Serious Soul Searching
  • Bonus Episode 2: Boss Bonanza & Everything Else
    • One of Jon's favorite weapons is the Excalibur. Not because of its stats, but because its depiction is stupid and hilarious. Because Soma isn't King Arthur, he can't remove the sword from the stone it's in, so he swings the sword stone and all.

    Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 
  • Jon's outright-abysmal luck with the coin bonus minigame.
  • Jon could've simply used an iris cut or an image transition to jump to the next scene, but he goes the extra mile by having Wario (in his bull helmet no less) toss the previous screen out with a glass shatter, with various quotes from Warioware and Wario World accompanying it.
  • The end slate Couch Gags make a return.
    • Episode 1: A Fly Guy with a red coin flies across the screen, with Wario chasing it down using the Jet powerup.
    • Episode 2: Wario pops up from the bottom to say "I'm-a number one!", only to get crushed by a 10 ton weight and pop back up as Tiny Wario.
    • Episode 3: Wario attempts a screen transition, only for the end slate to move less than expected. While he laments on this, an attack kitten tackles him.
    • Episode 4: Wario pulls the rope tied to a bucket above him per the coin minigame, and the bucket falls onto him.
    • Episode 5: Wario tries to throw a bird at Bobo, and misses. Bobo then crashes down on him.
    • Episode 6: Jon places some text on screen about what appeared to be finishing the boss and having the timer run out as he was collecting coins. Wario then comes in with the Dragon power-up to burn the text, saying "Loser!" afterward.
    • Episode 7: Mario's plane carrying the statue is chased by Wario's new planet. The planet crushes the plane offscreen.
  • Episode 1: Greed & Gambling
    • Jon discusses the advertising campaign for Super Mario Land 2 and 3 with Wario hypnotising you and notes that this was a time when Nintendo thought they could persuade you to buy Nintendo Power by suggesting it turns you into a werewolf. This leads him to go off on a very strange tangent about whether his mother would be disappointed that he bought Nintendo Power and it didn't turn him into a werewolf.
    • As always, Jon's usual luck strikes again when it comes to playing the double-or-halve money minigame.
    • He refers to one enemy as "the knife-throwing bear pirate". Another is "penguin dude who shoots his guts at you and his guts are spike balls".
Episode 2: A Cry For Help
  • He shows off a cheat in the game that can alter your lives, money, hearts, and timer to whatever number you want, and give you another powerup that cycles depending on the form you're currently on. But as he explains it...
    Jon: [When you perform the trick], you get a new powerup. It through a rotation of, I believe, Tiny Wario, Safari Wario, Bull Wario, Dragon Wario, Jet Wario... [gets hit by a bird and loses his current powerup] Motherfucker!... Wario.
  • At one point he goes through a door while carrying a bomb, causing said bomb to inexplicably turn into a coin. And when he goes back to try and recreate it, he finds that the bomb has reappeared inside a wall. Where it is still capable of exploding. Jon's reaction just screams Mind Screw.
    [sees the bomb stuck in a wall]
    Jon: That bomb was.... What? What? What?
    [somehow touches the bomb, setting it off]
    Jon: Oh my god, I've... wha.... OKAY!
  • Episode 3: Hot Gameplay Tips
    • Jon encounters a star, not remembering that they existed. It ends up disappearing right under his nose.
      Jon: There's actually stars in this game, I forgot about that!
      [star despawns right as he tries to pick it up]
      Jon: [breaks into laughter] Maybe that's why I didn't remember! 'Cause they go away!
    • Jon faces the boss of Mt. Teapot earlier than expected and easily wins due to the Dragon Hat powerup he collected earlier, but says that's not how you're meant to fight him. When he goes back to re-challenge the boss, however, he finds to his surprise that the boss is still dead meaning he automatically clears the stage upon entering the boss room.
    • Jon kills some of the ducks and mentions a fictional website. Going to the site in real life leads to the video timestamped at the moment.
      Jon: We've freed the ducks, which means we need to murder the ducks for cash. DucksForCash.com, don't go there it's not a site. I hope it's not not anyways, I'd be a little concerned.
      Caption: Site doesn't exist but it is used on Twitter and YouTube
  • Episode 4: Ice & Fire
    • Jon is perplexed as to why some stakes had spikes on them while some didn't, and thinks that the budget was too tight to cover them all in spikes.
    • Jon starts the first stage of Stove Canyon, turns to the left, and immediately runs into a wall of lava. Bonus points for predicting the world would suck before starting the stage.
      Jon: Well, I was right; it did suck.
    • Invisible blocks make a return to screw Jon over.
      Jon: (looking for a replacement minecart) Can I make another one of those appear or am I s—Ohmygod!
  • Episode 5: The Low Cash Seas
    • Jon faces the boss of the SS Tea Cup and has another easy victory... but only after two failures and utilizing a weapon that he even snarked at himself earlier over for passing up.
      Jon: I had a distinct feeling—I had a distinct fucking feeling! And of course! Of course! Why I would bring the damned penis-shaped dragon hat?! Why would I think that would be helpful?! Ugggh...
    • The boss of Stove Canyon spends some time destroying platforms rather than doing the attack pattern that would let Jon actually kill it, making him worry that he's going to die by pure RNG. That doesn't happen, and Jon beats the boss safely.... only to lose most of the coins thanks to the destroyed floor.
      Jon: Oh, it's falling in the holes! NO! GIMME THE MONEY!
    • His reaction to one of the treasures:
      Jon: [gasp] IT'S A FOOTBALL!
  • Episode 6: "Trapped" in the Woods
    • The money minigame repeats its pattern for a few stages to Jon's dismay.
    • Jon is about to run out of time, so he's rushing through a stage. He's also lost power, and he's hoping he won't have to fight the boss, Coin Lover, without a powerup. There is a block right above the boss door, and a thunder cloud chasing him.
      Jon: Please be a power-up. [hits the block, revealing a Garlic, then jumps to it just as the cloud is about to strike] Aw, beautif—OHHHHHHH MY GOD!
    • Jon's reaction to managing to pull off a victory against Coin Lover with absolutely no time remaining on the clock.
  • Episode 7: Goodbye to an Addiction
    • The money minigame having the money bag in the left bucket nine times in a row!
    • The same invisible block screwing Jon over... twice!
    • Jon proceeding to introduce us to the final boss when going through a door, only for the game to fake him out and continue the stage, three times in a row.

    The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes with Josh Jepson and Tom Fawkes 
  • Running Gags:
    • Josh getting (almost) all the rare drops of each course, much to the disbelief of Jon and Tom. This doesn't help that making the costumes requires some of the common materials, which he has next to none of.
    • Tom's frequent exclamation of "Lift me~!" and "Throw me~!". Lampshaded in Episode 6:
      Tom: "hat's kinda like my catchphrase for this let's play—for this let's play it's "Blank me~!"
    • Jon has completed the game already. This allows him to pick the best costume for a course and simply waltz through obstacles while the others have to do the long way around. And then taunt them about it.
      Jon: [while wearing a fireproof suit] Oh, sorry guys, there's fire in the way...
  • Episode 1: Three For the Price of Four
    • Since Jon already finished the game beforehand, he could not record the intro. So he did an abridged version:
      Jon: The entire game takes place in Hytopia. Princess Styla is the princess there. She's not very smart: she opened a gift that was vibrating. She got cursed. Now she's dressed like she's at an anime convention or a hockey game. Her father spends the entire game looking like this. [the king's "Noooo" voice clip] Her father put out a call for heroes. For some reason, you're the Link from A Link Between Worlds because Nintendo said so. Madame Couture gives you magical costumes that give you magical powers. Every other NPC is pretty much useless. ["Noooo" voice clip plays again]
    • When preparing for the second course, Josh accidentally chooses the first course, triggering a roulette. It lands on his choice, forcing the group to restart.
    • Blink and you'll miss it on Jon's screen, but when they nearly die to Electric Blob King, they joke about editing out their near death. Jon proceeds to edit their heart meter to two rows of hearts.
  • Episode 2: Short Fused Motivation
    • Jon plays with a ball while Josh and Tom speak to an NPC in the lobby. At one point, the ball reached them, and the NPC reacted.
    • The fight among them just for a treasure chest behind a bombable rock.
    • Jon motivates his team members to hurry to the Triforce at the end of each section by taking out a Big Bomb.
  • Episode 4: Sweet Robot Dude
    • At the very end, Jon puts a water spout on top of Tom, so Tom can't see what item he got, and when they teleported back to the lobby, Tom just jumped to the top of the water spout.
  • Episode 5: The Yelling Episode
    • Jon while swimming in lava in his Goron Garb tells the other two "Just hop in! The water's fine!" Tom proceeds to do just that, with predictable results.
    • The guys' Alternate Character Interpretation for the miniboss in Hinox Mine, who is apparently a nice guy who wanted to give them invitations to a party.
  • Episode 6: Uncoordinated
    • This episode sees the guys die several times due to a combination of poor coordination involving the Gust Jars, bad luck, and spotty internet, the crowning moment being Tom's 3DS running out of battery power, forcing the guys to restart.
    • Jon's Troll game remains strong, at one point trapping Tom with his boomerang in the treasure room, preventing him from moving until he collects his prize.
    • The guys butchering each others' catchphrases.
      Tom: Accelerate, por favor!
    • The three confuse each other's very similar-sounding names (all of them containing an O that functions as a short "A" sound) and decide that they should just start a collab channel called "OOOOAH", making even Jon crack up.
  • Episode 8: I Hate Snakes, Jon! I Hate 'Em!
    • Josh decides to go first when getting the prize for completing the level, hoping not to get a rare drop. He still gets the rare drop.
    Tom: SON OF A BITCH!
  • Episode 10: Flawless Online Experience
    • After fighting through the lag at the end of the boss rush, the team manages to beat the level and save the game... Only for Jon's internet connection on his 3DS to drop, which causes both Tom and Josh to get kicked out of the group.

    Blaster Master Zero 
  • Running Gags:
    • It doesn't follow the usual Couch Gag motions, but Jon likes slipping extra bits at the end of each episode.
      • Episode 1: Jon gets Interrupted by the End, about to say Frudnick but stopping at "FR-" as the video cuts.
      • Episode 2: The receiver gets a transmission from Falco. The message? "Slippy can be such a headache."
      • Episode 3: Jon shoots a couple of missiles on a whim, claiming he just wants the on-screen monsters to die. As well as the off-screen monsters.
      • Episode 4: The King of Red Lions sails by in the background.
      • Episode 5: Jon tries in vain to get Eve to share more lore, only for her to give her generic Fred-related response... and start telling him about Laser Shot again.
      • Episode 6: Eve asks Jason whether he thinks love can bloom even on a battlefield.
      • Episode 7: A guy comes in from the background (and chroma-keyed) and goes "Hey hey hey!".
      • Episode 8: Just when you think the episode is not going to end with one of these due to the serious nature of the current situation in-game, suddenly a dial-up tone starts to play.
    • Eve tells Jon/Jason about Homing Missiles whenever they talk to her. Later switches to Laser Shot as her central focus.
    • Jon being obsessive about completing every square on the map, whilst constantly telling the viewers they shouldn't bother to do it.
  • Episode 1: Frog Findin' Time!
    • Jon adds new titles to the tutorial menus.
    • Due to Schedule Slip, The LP was apparently recorded in June 2020, edited in January 2021, and released in March 2021.
    • Jon realizes that, by Jason looking for his pet frog, he's basically a human Big the Cat.
    • Jon mentions that shooting the power-up rocks, despite being at max upgrades, is really cathartic, like popping bubble wrap, but with a gun. He immediately backpedals and says not to shoot bubble wrap, before resignedly admitting that someone has probably just done that.
  • Episode 2: Residential Rescue
    • As soon as he encounters the caterpillar enemies, he goes to explain how unfair they were in the original game: they turned on a dime and were so fast, jumping over them was more of a hassle than shooting them. He then demonstrates how to time the missiles to shoot them...only for said missiles to not actually hit their target and prefer to hover over them instead.
    • After double-checking the Thunder Breaker's name, Jon calls that he's going to keep calling it Thundercracker instead. He also wonders whether he's gotten it confused with a Mega Man weapon; captions note that there's actually a G1 Transformer that goes by that name, leading to several pictures of the Decepticon flashing up on screen whenever he talks about the weapon. Either of them, as he gets the Thunder Breaker mixed up with the lightning-based Striker mode of Jason's blaster as well.
    • Due to being married to Lucahjin, he ended up picking up her dirtier sense of humor. As such, he ended up reading "...my blaster rifle began to emit this brilliant light." a little too deeply... The dialogue box following after didn't help his case.
  • Episode 3: Operating Heavier Machinery
    • Due to a long break between recording this episode and the last, Jon decided to check back on his notes for the LP - only to find that said "notes" consisted of nothing but Jason's last name, Frudnick, repeated multiple times with increasing urgency.
    • After getting two jump-boosting updates, he talks to Eve to try and get info from her on them. After multiple rounds of dialogue, it finally dawns on him that she's just not going to talk about them.
    • After returning to Area 2, Jon mentions cutting away while he gets some map completion. Cut to him clearing one of the spots - and noticing that he completely forgot to do the spot he was right next to when talking about cutting away. Cue frustrated groan.
    • Jon forgot to turn off on screen notifications in the top left corner of his screen, covering them up are bits of Caption Humor, snarking about they weren't turned off.
      Caption Box: Whoops, can't show that in a Christian Let's Play!
  • Episode 4: Gross Sewer Water
    • Throughout the episode, Jon berates the game for calling the token Sewer Level 'the Waterworks'.
    • Jon breaks into a laughing fit the moment he sees the blue containers in one of the dungeons, pointing out how the plug-like design on their side resemembles the hills with eyes in Super Mario Bros..
    • In order to demonstrate how strong the rumble feature is, Jon sets it down on his desk. The resulting noise sounds bizarrely like a horn, hence the accompanying picture of a long cruise ship sailing past.
      • He then holds it up next to the microphone; the noise (and picture) are much smaller.
      • Later, he sets the controller down for the big rumble again, and has the Titanic hit a rock on-screen.
    • What claims Jon's first death? The ladder jump.
      • Then, while he's talking about how he nailed it first try during practice, he manages to snag it... only to climb just a little too high and topple right off the top.
      • Cutting ahead to another near miss, he tells his future self to cut ahead further, then corrects himself:
      Jon: Cut ahead. [silence while he climbs] ...Unless I get it on this jump, then don't cut ahead. 'Cuz then — if you cut ahead and I nail it this jump, then that means nobody's gonna believe me that I— [passes by the ladder] —did it correctly. Okay, hopefully you cut ahead!
      Caption Box: Gotcha covered, buddy!
  • Episode 5: Free in the Sea
    • Jon tells himself off every time he accidentally refers to this level as 'the ocean', when it's the MAN MADE SEA.
    • For two bosses in the level, Jon talks them up, notes scary foreshadowing like the game giving a huge boss fight arena or hinting through shadows that a boss has just killed a whale, etc...and then reveals that both of them die in seconds to the Game-Breaker wave beam weapon before they even get to attack.
    • While trying to get Eve to talk about the newly acquired Turret sub-weapon, she just wants to talk about what Sophia has equipped (since Jon was in the overworld). However, she does say that she'll explain the turret for 1 Play Coin.
  • Episode 6: Ice Cold Truth
    • Jon compares the four-sided star spikes spread throughout the area to the symbol of the Principality of Zeon... though it more closely resembles that of the Earth Federation. (The red threw him off.)
    • Shortly after taking another aside to question why you would use anything other than the top three weapons, Jon doesn't notice when he takes enough damage to lose Wave and Flamethrower. It's only when he tries whipping out the latter to melt some ice that he finally notices its absence.
    • When demonstrating the awesome power of the Remote Blast against Ancient Freeze, Jon's taken off guard by just how effective it proves to be, dissolving into frantic laughter.
      Jon SOPHIA fires a beautiful shot, takes out—HOLY SHIT! [disbelieving laughter, pauses to recover]
      Caption Box: What boss?
      [after the battle]
      Eve: Great job, Jason. Are you alright? You're not injured, are you?
      Jon: No, but I laughed my ass off, does that count? [as Jason] "Nope, no injuries. All good here." Lungs hurt a little bit.
  • Episode 7: Now for Stealth...
    • Jon repeatedly shows how the stealth that the devs intended can be ignored; either with a couple of dashes of the Charge Tackle on the overworld or Striker shots in the Jason stages.
    • In one Jason stage, he suggests using Reflect due to the density of enemies shooting at him. As soon as he pops Reflect up, he gets shot in the back.
    • In the demonstrationfor the Acceleration Blast, the beam is so powerful, it pierces through the game screen and even displaces it a few pixels. A hand even comes in to realign the video.
  • Episode 8: Defying Fate
    • Jon's attempt at gravitas by describing how well-prepared they are for the challenge at hand gets derailed when he flips over to Jason's status screen and is abruptly reminded of how he lost most of his gun levels during a stealth snafu.
    • Faced with a pit full of spikes, Jon comments on how it's significantly less dangerous in Zero compared to the original Blaster Master, even jumping right in to illustrate... and struggling to get back out.
    • As he uses the Acceleration Blast to wipe out a wall of obstacles, a single red bee flutters down the tunnel from above, drifting right in front of the charging gun. Right before the wave unleashes, a tiny 'halp' appears beside it.
    • While describing how SOPHIA's wall-climbing abilities led to control issues in the original game, Jon demonstrates how it could play out, deliberately taking damage... despite already being low on health from his other recent follies.
      Jon: Like this wall here, you would just — [dips SOPHIA into the spikes] like that. And then you would take two damage, and then you'd be in trouble, and I don't know why I'm showing this and Tempting Fate when I've already said I'm pretty damned low on health, but, uhhhhhh... I guess we're here now. I guess this is the bed I've made for myself. [dashes into an enemy, lands in spikes again] Oh shit. Uhhh... I could really use a new bed.
    • While showing off the bad ending, Jon is sidelined by questioning the Contrived Coincidence of Jason not only finding a tank and a gun, but a suit of armor and helmet that were precisely his size.
      Jon: Or was this just one he had in his house? Is Jason a cosplayer? Is this his science outfit? These are questions I did not expect to ask myself.
      Caption: Was this all just an elaborate LARPing session for Jason??
    • During his research, Jon discovers that the M. Overlord in its green form is weak to the default blaster, and he even ends up dealing the final hit with the default.
  • Episode 9 (Finale): Ends of the Earth?
    • Much like with the waves before, Jon demonstrates how violently the controller rumbles when bosses are defeated by setting it down. This time around, the resulting sounds are marked by pictures of various ducks.
    • Jon encounters the notorious Guide Dang It! of the phased-out door in the Alternate Dimension area... and initially assumes that it's Developer's Foresight to ensure that the player doesn't enter before retrieving the key item further ahead. Upon returning and finding the door still phasing in and out of existence, he's completely baffled. Given his history, he naturally assumes he's encountered yet another random glitch. After resorting to Try Everything, Future Jon has to cut in explaining that he's always managed to accidentally turn the Receiver on before this point in every one of his past playthroughs, which auto-solves the puzzle. Present Jon is left to his frustrations, wondering how you're supposed to know to do that.
      • The 'Glitch Count' ticks up to 1, then back down to 0 upon discovering the solution, replaced with the 'Stupid Game Design Choice Count' while Jon sits in Stunned Silence.
    • The ending gets something unexpected, complete with a text box:
      Eve: Just like last time. I'm gonna run away again, thanks for the new tank, fucker!

    DuckTales with Lucahjin 
  • It's Jon and Lucah doing a Let's Play together. Anyone familiar with their dynamic through either the LittleBigPlanet LPs on The Runaway Guys, the times the two have popped up on each other's streams, or the various LPs Jon has accompanied Lucah for on her channel know that practically the entire video is a Crowning Moment of Funny. To be specific, though:
    • Lucah starts the video by singing her own version of the theme song.
      Lucah: DuckAss! UwU-wuu!
      Jon: Why are we singing about ducks' asses? That's not what the name of that game says. That says D-Scrooge McDuck-uckTales, thank you very much.
      Lucah: Look, I'm far away from the screen, it looks like DuckAss to me!
      • The "duck asses" in question come up again a couple times, including this bit a few seconds later:
        Jon: [talking about DuckTales Remastered] It's way longer, they padded it a lot, so...
        Lucah: But... did they pad their duck ass?
        Jon: No. They got an all natural booties.
      • And of course, when the theme song comes back for the ending...
        Lucah: [singing to the tune of the DuckTales theme song] ...here in, duck ass! We don't talk about duck ass but it's all about his duck ass! That's where the money is... he puts it up his ass!
        Both Jon and Lucah, simultaneously: DuckAss! Woo-ooo!
      • And in The Stinger...
        Lucah: [singing, again] Not pony ass or goblin a-a-ass, DuckAss! Woo-hoo!
    • As both of them are familiar with both this game and Capcom's other Disney Afternoon NES games, the topic of Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers comes up, with Lucah discussing how childhood squabbles led to the game repeatedly getting taken away.
      Jon: One of you always wanted one of the specific ones. I could see the both of you fighting over being Dale.
      Lucah: No, we just kept getting each other killed. On purpose. And screamed a lot. You know how kids do.
      Jon: Well, that's also how you do as adults, to be fair...
      Lucah: Did you just call me out? ...You right.
    • While passing by some coffins in Transylvania:
      Lucah: Hey Jon?
      Jon: What?
      Lucah: RIP.
      Jon: Oh. ...Oh.
      Lucah: ...BEYBLADE, BEYBLADE, LET IT-
    • Jon mentions that he, embarassingly, grew up moreso on Quack Pack, and pops up some promo art (the picture featured on the series' page on This Very Wiki) for reference. Lucah's reaction is about what you'd expect.
    • Jon actually managing to run out of time while fighting Magica.
    • A decent part of the video is one or both of them singing/scatting along to the music. Lucah in particular got excited once they reached The Amazon, citing it as the one reason she came onboard.
    • The two remark on how swimming in money is not that great an idea and actually kind of gross if one really thinks about it. Lucah even brings up a time when her brother dumped a plastic barrel of coins on her head and her being disappointed with the results.
      Lucah: [in the comments] don't swim in money
    • At Lucah's request, Jon "replaces" one of the slugs in the African Mines with her, interpreted as overlaying her profile picture on top of it.
    • Jon and Lucah bring some levity to Jon's bits of sloppy play with some Britney Spears.
      Jon: [singing to the tune of Oops! I Did It Again] Oops, I'm, play-ing real bad. Magica kicked my a-a-a-ass.
    • Jon getting run over by a boulder allows one of Lucah's Running Gags to sneak in:
      Lucah: You can't outrun the balls, Jon.
    • Lucah jokes about a couple of block arrangements in the Himalayas being ice penises.
      Jon: Glad that got past QR.note 
    • This out-of-context quote:
    • Jon shows off the prototype's ending, where Scrooge says that the most important treasure is "DREAM AND FRIENDS".
      Lucah: I'm gonna go get "Dream And Friends" tattooed on my ass.
      Jon: *laughs* So you can have a duck ass?
    • Really, this quote from the comments section, whether the user knew about the two of them actually being married or not, sums everything up, in addition to being hilarious on its own:
      God, you two have an insane amount of chemistry. You two should get married.

    Super Adventure Island 2 
  • Episode 1: Honeymoon Gone Wrong
    • Jon isn't impressed by the game's Insistent Terminology that Tina's kidnapper was a "monster".
      Jon: It's a bird. It's a bird. You can just say "a big bird". Not that Big Bird, but a big bird.
    • When Tina telepathically contacts Higgins in his dream, it takes the game an oddly long time to load in her sprite & dialogue, leaving an increasingly baffled Jon stuck waiting for the scene to progress. Future Jon edits in a video buffering icon where Tina should be.
    • Towards the end of the episode, Jon gets a weapon called the Silver Sword, whose in-game description says it 'breaks most rocks'. In fact, it breaks one specific progression-barrier rock, and the rest of the game is full of other rocks it does nothing to. When Jon runs into these in future episodes, he comments something like "That wasn't a 'most' rock".
  • Episode 2: Ice & Fire
    • When showing off the hint system through sleeping in the Inn, Jon is taken back by how much indepth Tina's instructions were. The cherry on top is his reaction to when Tina insists Higgins rescue her so she does not miss her soap opera.
      Jon: "(Reading Tina's Dialogue) Hurry and rescue me. I'm missing my favorite so— (shocked and laughing) Oh Fuck off!"
  • Episode 3: Gambling & Backtracking
  • Episode 6: Not A Good Honeymoon
    • After realizing that the way he chose to get to a switch isn't as fast as the other, Jon says that he opened his mouth and now has to live with the consequences, "as I have been doing all my life". Cue a scrolling list of "Consequences of Jon opening his mouth", listing memes from Jon's LPs and streams over the years, complete with Mario 64's endless stairs music.
      • Some highlights:
      Inability to eat mushrooms
      Thunderbirds can't count anymore
      Bigger - on three separate occassions
      Ruining that one emotional scene from Asura's Wrath
      So many alt-Jon's...like so many
      The speed of Pokeys
      And in succession, "Killing Captain Falcon", "Killing Ryu Hayabusa", "Killing Caleb Goldaman", and "Killing The VOD"

    Donkey Kong Country 
  • General:
    • The Couch Gag endings return once again:
      • Episode 1: Enguarde the Swordfish zooms by like a drag race car, with a swimming Diddy Kong struggling to catch up to him.
      • Episode 2: Jon is told he didn't actually beat the game, and that he was given a bootleg of Donkey Kong Country, and reacts accordingly (see below).
      • Episode 3: A clip of DK punching Funky from the cartoon plays.
      • Episode 4: Jon's attempt at an end-of-video speech is derailed when DK's face from one of the bonus screens is superimposed on DK's body on the end card.
      • Episode 6 is more involved than usual: The background for the ending card, which previously used the art used on the NTSC and PAL SNES version's box, is now instead Donkey Kong 5's title screen. TimeThief asks Jon what was up with all the Funky stuff back in episode 3, which he dismisses as "probably not important". Sure enough, we delve back into the multiverse, back to DK Isle, where Lavos with Funky Kong's head emerges...
        Caption: But... the funk refused to stop.
        RosaJon: Dammit... He didn't listen. Guess it's time to go find another one...
    • The running gag of him getting the Animal Buddy bonus games when he doesn't want them.

  • Episode 1: Apes on an Adventure

  • Episode 2: Bootleg Reboot
    • Jon admits to having skipped a ton of levels, and decides to "go back to where it all started" so he can fix that. Cue the LP rewinding, first back to the arcade game, then back to Kirby Super Star (complete with the playbar from Google Video, to which Jon remarks, "Cute. You know what I meant."), before finally returning to the beginning of the game... except not really, because as the title implies, Jon's actually playing a short, bootleg NES version titled Donkey Kong Country 4. In true Jon fashion, he treats this as if it were actually the original game, calling it "Donkey Kong 4: Country"note  and attributing the features the bootleg lacks compared to the actual game as just a case of Early-Installment Weirdness.
    • The bootleg only really has five level themes, and given that each world is only 2-3 levels plus the boss fight, it randomly bounces between them a lot. The first level of World 2, for instance, takes its theming (and difficulty) from Kremkroc Industries, Inc., which is DKC's fifth world, leading to Jon struggling with the level for a while. When Jon makes it to the next level, the game then decides to suddenly and randomly return to Jungle Japes' theming.
    • Jon remarks about how the fish in the underwater levels aren't a deadly species like pirahna, akin to later entries in the series, but are instead plain sea bass. This leads to Jon's editor making the following joke:
      They look more like a C+ to me.note 
    • Jon jumps into a pit where there is a secret in the normal game, and ends up in the Skyrim intro
    • During the King K. Rool boss fight, Jon notes that K. Rool drops what Jon notes look like watermelons. Jon then proceeds to die to one of the watermelons, leading to the obvious remark:
      Jon: Crushed by melons. How fitting.
      Caption: You said it, not me.
    • Jon beats the game, but before finishing the LP, he has a confession to make:
      Jon: As I'm sure you're probably aware, this isn't my actual cartridge of Donkey Kong Country. I hate to admit this, I've been lying to you the whole time. ...This is actually one I borrowed from a friend. So. So, it's a little bit different, as you can tell, every copy of Donkey Kong Country is personalized, so...
      • Later, in The Stinger...
        Jon: [talking with someone offscreen] What do you mean I didn't beat the game? [Beat] ...My friend gave me a what now?
  • Episode 3: Color Correction
    • Jon confesses that he was given a bootleg version of the game, so he tries to fast forward to the actual game... only to suddenly wind up in a weird Bad Future ruled by Funky Kong, of all things. Jon, having been warned by someone (implied, by way of their voice, to be RosaJon) of how Nintendo has let Funky get too, well, funky, hurriedly goes backwards again... and this time, he actually winds up with Donkey Kong Country! ...Except, again, it's not the SNES version; this episode instead features Jon playing through the Game Boy Color port.
    • Jon has some mishaps in Ropey Rampage, most notably beating the stage's final Bonus Room, then immediately cartwheeling right into a pit and dying.
    • Throughout the episode, Jon winds up entering the animal buddy bonus stages when he doesn't want to, especially since beating them sends him back to the start of whatver stage he was in (assuming he hadn't reached the checkpoint).
      Jon: Hey, you ever heard of the word "hubris"? I'm sure you've never heard that word around here.
    • Jon's editor is very much aware of all the game swapping/universe hopping/whatever the hell is going on, so when Jon briefly makes mention of the Returns games, they can't help but snark a bit:
      Jon: Thankfully, getting KONG does not matter. This is not the Returns series; not yet, anyways...
      Caption: Give it a few episodes...
    • Jon enters the first mine-cart stage and has something to say about it.
      Jon: Now, some of you may be thinking, "Well, you don't need to do that, Jon, what about the secret?" And to those of you, I say... *Jumps over the barrel cannon to where the secret normally is... and dies* What are you talking about? There's no secret here.
      • Thanks to the quirks of this version of the game, Jon struggles on this stage for a while. After his second death to the final cart-riding Kremling, there's static... and then the video cuts to Jon in the middle of playing the SNES version of the stage, complete with him repeating commentary bits from earlier as if the LP had proceeded as normal. To further add to the hilarity/mind-fuckery, Jon then actually shows the aforementioned secret, and then...
        SNES!Jon: With the camera panned out, and just, with enough viewpoints, it's not that hard. You'll make some mistakes, your first time, sure, or if you're rusty like I am, but... at least it's not zoomed-in and like, requiring different timing. That'd be awful!
        [the video cuts to static again, then to the Game Boy Color version's map screen; Jon has beaten the stage]
        GBC!Jon: ...Uh, sorry, spaced out for a a second there.
    • Jon mentions how this is now an apparently "complete" LP, leading to the editor asking if they should call up Jirard.

  • Episode 4: Dance Dance Devolution
    • "I'm so sick of jumping around. We're just- we're just gonna stick with this version, okay?" said Jon while on the Game Boy Color version at the start of the episode. A few seconds later, there's another static cut and suddenly he's playing the Game Boy Advance version. It's at this point that the real gag of the Let's Play becomes clear: Jon is playing every single game called "Donkey Kong Country" at the same time.
    • Every time a bonus room is reached in the GBA version, it displays a splash screen depicting what the bonus objective is.note  Jon proceeds to lose his shit every time a new splash screen appears due to how out-of-place and overdone they are.
    • When the GBA's life counter hits 69, it reads "NICE" instead of displaying the number. (Providing Jon remembers; it is missed at least once.)

  • Episode 5: Entering Endgame
    • After four episodes of nonsense, Jon finally reaches the point of Gorilla Glacier he left off on in the first part and starts the last stage before the boss... only to be informed that his free trial of Donkey Kong Country has expired. After some frustrated troubleshooting and an intermission styled like his stream intermissions (during which Jon remarks on how he'd likely never LP Donkey Kong Country because it always goes awry when he plays it), Jon returns from a local game store with a "Hacker Kong" program that'll let him extend his trial, via a minigame suspiciously similar to the rare Donkey Kong Country Competition Cartridge.
      • The intermission becomes funnier when the following episode reveals the "true" nature of the LP, as it suggests that it was a real intermission during Jon's stream of The Journey of Over Time and Space while he waited for the alternate Jon to get back from the store.
    • The LP resumes with the SNES version once the trial is extended, but the rest of the video continually lures viewers into a false sense of security before throwing in more curveballs. The infamous bonus room inside another bonus room becomes the dreaded Beaver Bother, the GBA version returns twice (first to play more of Candy's dance minigames and then to show a change in Boss Dumb Drum's fight), and Mine Cart Madness starts with an "FMV" cutscene that's just a heavily pixellated scene from the cartoon (which cuts to a commercial break after Jon screws up a quick-time event).
    • At the end of the episode, he rhetorically asks how the game's going to end, following it up by saying that he thinks the viewer already knows. As though the whole LP wasn't...what it is.

  • Episode 6: Funky Finale
    • Jon opts to go into the GBC-exclusive stage, Necky Nutmare, completely blind. This proves to have been a questionable decision, as the titular Neckies pull some nasty tricks, such as camping at the end of narrow tunnels and firing through them, or sniping the Kongs from offscreen.
    • In Loopy Lights, Jon quickly grabs a barrel before it gets destroyed to get a bonus stage, however this also turns off the lights. He tries to guess where he's supposed to jump, only to miss a jump and die.
    • When Jon finally gets to the long-awaited Gang-Plank Galleon fight in the GBA version... it starts as a Smash Ultimate match. Specifically, it's a two-on-one Stamina match on the Pirate Ship, with Jon as DK and a CPU-controlled Diddy, each with 10%, fighting K. Rool, who has 100%. After Jon (predictably) gets his ass handed to him, the video then switches to the GBC version of the fight, with the video then swapping between each of the three versions after each hit.
    • After each of the Jons (including the Smash one) land the final hit on K. Rool, the video turns off like an old CRT would... before cutting to another Jon nearing the end of Donkey Kong 5: The Journey of Over Time and Space, claiming that the multiversal shenanigans were because of that game's final boss, Dracula himself, who gets promptly eliminated via a bridge switch. Turns out, this was the game Jon was supposed to be doing an LP of, during a livestream no less, and all the Jons that were playing Donkey Kong Country were multiversal counterparts that, thanks to the weird space-time capabilities Donkey Kong 5 apparently has, we've been watching instead.
      Jon: I've always heard that if you play through this game, you're probably going to go insane, but thankfully I've been on YouTube long enough, I think I hit that point a long time ago, so we're good.
    • To further magnify this incredible troll that Jon just pulled, as Jon describes how crazy his experience was, he namedrops a game with similar qualities: Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Special Edition, which Jon later namedrops as an inspiration for this LP.
    • With Donkey Kong 5 done and dusted, Jon goes to the Fortune Cookie to pull the next game. As he starts saying the name of the game (Jet Set Radio Future), MasterTimeThief (one of Jon's stream mods and the current editor for the main LPs) chimes in:
      TimeThief: What was that?
      Jon: Dude- what do you mean? Dude, we just played Donkey Kong 5, the damn title screen was just on the screen! We've been playing it for hours, how were you not aware of this?
      TimeThief: How does a bootleg go through time and space; how does that work exactly?
      Jon: Dude, I dunno man, I stopped being a programmer in like, 2006.
      TimeThief: Where did you even buy something like that, man?
      Jon: See, that's the weird thing... We got it at a TRG trip, I remember specifically it was this table by itself... There was this one girl there that was running it; she looked so familiar- she had blonde hair, glasses, a hoodie with a star on it, she was really bustyI probably shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry—but, like, she kind of looked at me, handed me the cartridge and said: "Warn the others." It was really weird, but like, why am I gonna say no to a free video game?
    • TimeThief insists that Jon start up Donkey Kong 5 again and delve back into the multiverse to show how the various versions of DKC end, because someone out there will be disappointed if he doesn't. Jon complies, indeed going over time and space in a sequence mostly ripped from Chrono Trigger, which also plays into The Stinger.
    • GBC!Jon's incredulous reaction to the "The End" image of his version. It's... something, alright.
    • During the out-of-character discussion of the LP over the SNES credits, Jon expresses worry over the amount of traumatized comments he got related to Beaver Bother's cameo in the previous episode.

    The Lion King 
  • Jon spends the entire video trying to unconvincingly argue that the game's notorious difficulty is overblown, whilst commentating on the obtuse and complex moves he's doing to beat the levels as someone who grew up with the game and knows its quirks, as well as just being very good at platform games. The best part is that it's genuinely ambiguous whether he's self-aware about how much he's undermining his own claim or not.
  • The final battle with Scar takes far longer than Jon anticipated. Not because the fight itself is particularly difficult — Scar spends most of it panting and exhausted. No, the real problem is that all his energy goes into jumping away from the edges of Pride Rock, preventing Jon from being able to beat the game by throwing him over the edge.
  • As a bonus, Jon shows off how to use in-game cheats to flip Simba upside-down, making most of the stages much harder... save for The Stampede. As well as the fact that Scar's sprite is also flipped upside-down during the following cutscene.
    • He then tests out how the final stage works, realizing that Scar isn't flipped there and seems to have the high ground advantage... forcing Simba to jump up and sock him in the jaw from below. Jon bursts into laughter at the sheer absurdity of the sight.

    Kirby's Dream Land 
  • Jon tempts fate as usual as he enters the Float Islands section of Castle DeDeDe during the Extra Mode playthrough:
    Jon: We've got full health... [immediately gets hit] ...Why did I say that?
    Future Jon: Hubris has incredible comedic timing.
  • A very similar thing happens during his first round with DeDeDe himself, also in Extra Mode:
    Jon: [On his last hit] You know what, I will say this, and I know by saying this and finishing this sentence I'm gonna die, but we've lasted longer in this fight than I've [DeDeDe inhales Kirby] EXPECTED!
    Future Jon: Like I said, incredible comedic timing...
    Jon: It hurts the most when you actually call out the fact that- saying "this will kill you." And when you say it, it does indeed kill you. Once, just once I would love to curb that trend. Just once.
  • Jon actually performs worse during the second attempt, and then naturally wins the third time... with full health. As Jon says himself in regards to the fight, "God, I could fuckin' wash my car with how clean this is!"

    Jet Set Radio Future 
  • General:
    • Jon noticing the frequent typos in the game's script.
    • Jon pointing out the ridiculous stunts the skates are capable of pulling off, usually paired with remarks about their magnetic properties.
    • On a related note, Jon having a tendency of getting magnetized to a railing when he doesn't want to.
    • Jon making jokes about the pedestrians' reactions to the player skating by, most notably the "AH, HE TOUCHED MY BUTT/BUM" line.

  • Part 1: The Concept of Love
    • Before starting the first level, Jon shows off the game's primitive graffiti editor. His creation in it is certainly something: a magenta-teal smear, some checkerboard and 8-bit ghost stamps, and the text "DOG" (with the G being substantially smaller than the other two letters).
    • The actual graffiti designs Jon is using for the LP are pieces of art submitted by fans and modded into the game. The first set includes fan art depicting recurring characters of Jon's streams like the Wesker egg, Waluigi (with Beat's Cool Shades), and Bagel, but the SS graffiti- the picture Jon used to test the method he used to replace the game's graffiti with his own images- is a real-life photograph of Jon's friend Jirard making a funny face. The picture continues to be amusing during Dogenzaka Hill, where the odd graffiti locations cause it to be smeared and distorted a few times.
    • Jon doesn't like Yo-Yo because of how his voice clips sound, comparing it to Ad-Rock from Beastie Boys, with an accompanying clip of him rapping. He quickly reveals that this comment is actually on-topic, as two members of the band were involved with the soundtrack of Jet Set Radio Future in some form.
      Caption: Editor's Note: White rap was a mistake
    • Beat gets caught on a parked car while Jon is racing him, with a *bonk* sound effect edited in.
    • Jon's reactions to how rude Roboy gets during the tutorials, especially funny since he was playing as Corn, the leader of the GG's and the person who built Roboy.

  • Part 2: Gangs, Graffiti, Tanks
    • Among this part's graffiti submissions include the Wesker Egg splatted against a wall, Big the Cat advertising his book, and a version of Michelangelo Buonarroti's The Creation of Adam with Chris Redfield in place of Adam, Wesker in place of God, and the phrases "The right to be a GOD" and "That right is now MINE" written on both sides of the piece in Impact font.
    • Jon manages to complete the infamously buggy/stingy "jump from rooftop to rooftop without touching the ground" side mission in Shibuya Terminal in one (on-screen) attempt... and is rewarded with Graffiti Soul No. 8. Eight, for those unaware, is Jon's lucky number. The Irony is not lost on him.
    • While comparing Combo's designs across both games, Jon is amused at the idea of the speakers on Future!Combo's tank top being actual speakers, as if he'd decided that merely carrying around a boombox 24/7 wasn't enough.
    • When Hayashi first shows up, Jon notes that his voice reminds him of, of all things, Kevin McDonald of The Kids in the Hall fame.
      Jon: But, I think he's a bit more of a threat than Kevin McDonald, because, uh... he's got a gun. I don't know if Kevin McDonald has a gun; I have not asked him, as I have not ever met him...
      Caption: ...Yet.
    • Since the aforementioned image of the splattered Wesker Egg is being used as the SS graffiti, the cops all literally get egg spraypainted onto their faces, as Jon notes.
    • When Jon goes to talk to Combo as Corn, he's weirded out when the former notes his hatred of dogs, and asks why the GGs got Potts... even though Potts has technically been with the GGs since before Combo was a member. When he then switches to Combo, he then accidentally gets caught on Potts' doghouse and treats it as Combo hanging out with Potts as "punishment".
    • Jon's incredulous reaction to the Rokkakku Police sending in tanks to deal with the GGs, who as a reminder, are just a bunch of kids on rollerskates spraying graffiti. Even TimeThief (the editor) is in disbelief at Hayashi and co.'s sheer audacity:
      Caption: This is the second episode!!!
      • Later, Jon continues discussing the ridiculousness of the situation:
        Jon: ...I just find it so funny that it's just like, "SEND IN THE TANKS TO DEAL WITH THE CHILDREN. WE'RE SICK OF THE CHILDREN'S SHIT. BLOW THEM TO HELL. BLOW THEM UP INTO PIECES."
    • After mentioning it while discussing the soundtrack in the previous part, the moment Jon's been dreading finally arrives: "Birthday Cake" by Cibo Matto starts playing. It is... a lot to absorb, if you haven't heard it before. Even the edited-in indicator for what the background track is pops up for a couple seconds with "Oh No Oh God - Oh Fuck" before popping up again with the track's actual name and artist.
    Jon: Happy birthday to everyone that's watching this on their birthday. Hope you're enjoying it!

  • Part 3: Getting Vertical
    • The small graffiti this episode is of an attack cat from Aria of Sorrow, while the XL graffiti is inspired by the "MOVE FASTER, POKEY!" bit from the Kaizo Mario World playthrough.
    • Jon has some mishaps while trying to make a fairly easy jump for a Graffiti Soul in Rokkaku-Dai Heights.
      Jon: This is the point where you would reset an episode normally, but I'm not that smart. *sighs*
      Caption: This is the point where I would cut away, but I'm not that kind.
    • Jon remarks at how the cops have upgraded to wearing armor... after they sent in the tanks.
      Jon: Tanks already happened; I don't think you needed to give them armor... you just needed to bring in a jet.
    • Jon attempts to jump onto one of the smokestacks (or "chimneys", as the game refers to them) to snag a Graffiti Soul, only to then magnetize to the railing between him and the smokestack. He then tells Beat to "stop being so sticky", prompting TimeThief to chastise Jon:
      Caption: Jon please, there are children here.
    • Jon briefly says hi to Potts while in the GGs' garage, prompting TimeThief to quickly edit in Potts saying "こんにちは"Translation back.
    • Jon goes for a high jump towards one of the Graffiti Souls in 99th Street... only for the camera to bug out, causing the graphics to go all black for a moment. It even happens again on his successful attempt of the jump. Jon is naturally confused about why that happened, but given his glitch magnet tendencies, TimeThief remarks "At this rate, I'd believe 'ancient family curse'".
    • The last Graffiti Soul grabbed this part is No. 69. Jon himself doesn't make a joke about it, but TimeThief can't help but joke that it was a "Nice graffiti to end on".
    • During the flag race against Rapid 99, Jon bumps into one of the Rapid 99 skaters while grinding... which sends them backwards, right into where the next flag spawns.

  • Part 5: Sky High & Deep in the Streets
    • Jon inadvertently trips the GG Challenge for Boogie (a.k.a. Piranha), in a really bad spot to get to her in time too. In a simultaneous moment of awesome and hilarity, he manages to beat the time by 0.05 seconds.
      Caption: Literally how the fuck??

  • Part 6: Rooftop Hop & Death Ball
    • One of the challenges is to grind around the Pharaoh without falling to make a Graffiti Soul spawn. The first instinct would be to take a rail for the full revolution in a smooth combo...but that's not what the game is looking for. The actual objective is to grind around the Pharaoh for 30 seconds. 30 seconds total, no actual circling required. Jon's answer to the objective is to grind on the sloped railing as slowly as possible, not even caring he won't clear the incline. And that clears the objective.
    • Being an area full of bottomless(?) pits, inevitable falls happen. So what does he do? One, state that taking the fall is a speedrunning tactic, and two, tag-in the other GG members just to listen to their falling screams.
    • After getting captured and taken to the future Rokkaku Expo Stadium site, he notes that there's a perfectly servicble exit to Route 99, but doesn't take it because technically the GGs are, in the biggest quotes "captive".

  • Part 7: Rise of the Robots
    • Jon getting increasingly frustrated with all of the GGs wondering where Yoyo is, comparing it to a quote from The Simpsons: "Every time Poochie's not onscreen, everybody else should be asking: 'Where's Poochie?'" This eventually culminates in an edited clip from the original episode:
      Yoyo (Poochie): (monotone) I have to go now; my planet needs me.
      ("Yoyo" abruptly shifts up off the screen while Hayashi (Itchy) and Corn (Scratchy) watch)
      (screen cuts to a crude text card reading "Note: Yoyo died on the way to his home planet")

    Other 
  • During Awesome Games Done Quick 2015 he made a donation which got read on stream. The game he donated during? Kaizo Mario World.
    Jon: You're crazy. Absolutely crazy. Why would you do this to yourself? I mean, I know you'll clear it but why would you do this to yourself?''
  • Jon crashes Chugga's Pax East update video and freaks him out.
  • On Twitter, Jon mentions he made the easiest stage on Super Mario Maker, which he titles "I Couldn't Make it Any Easier!" He deliberately designed it to be idiot-proof, making you complete the stage no matter how hard you resist. The kicker? The Clear Rate on the stage is actually 98.9%, which, according to the game's coding, means that there are some people who paused and clicked "Start Over", which counts as a death! So much for that 100% Clear Rate, huh?
  • Jon and a friend do a dramatic reading of "Wesker's Quest: The Sacred Eggs", a Resident Evil 5 fan fiction written specifically for Jon's stream.
