- When playing Cookie Clicker, it starts out innocently enough, with Dan talking about the game and playing it.

- While also a Funny Moment, Barbie's inspiration wall comes out of nowhere.
- "Vote Kitty President".
- The Disco Dodgeball video was most likely nightmare fuel for anyone named James.

- Dan's story about his old office job at the start of his Deus Ex: Mankind Divided video, to explain how he feels about microtransactions."In this office, in the center of this office, on a white table, in this glass box... Was the boss's pet. He used to keep it in the office... Kind of a power thing, you know bosses... (...) But it was a spider."
"The case was never opened, the spider never did anything, we never had an interaction, we were never going to have an interaction... But every day in that office I would think about that spider, because it was '''there''', it was- it was behind me, it was always behind me, it was always there, it was always waiting... It was always just sitting there, being a spider, and... I couldn't get over that. (...) As I was working... Spider... Would come into my mind, and it made me leave in the end."
