(He didn't evac because he thought the whole 'Grunty's back!' thing was just a gag) When Banjo and Kazooie meet Jamjars and relate the sarge about his brother's untimely demise, Jamjars asks if Bottles went down fighting.

Just then, Tooty comes out and tells them that they haven't defeated Grunty. Banjo decides to go back to the lair, despite Kazooie complaining and whacking him with her cup.

* In Mayahem Temple of the second game, one of the guards won't let you participate in a game because the sport is only open to the Stonies that live in the area. Obvious solution: use Humba Wumba's magic to turn Banjo and Kazooie into a Stony. Hilariously, this doesn't work... except it does:

'''Kazooie''': Are you saying we're a bear and bird in an elaborate disguise trying to cheat our way in?\\
'''Guard''': Yep, it's pretty obvious. But they're a bit short on players, so you might as well go in.

* The ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie'' series as a whole is hilarious, but a classic bit comes from ''Tooie.'' A really freaky character named Canary Mary can be raced for a Jiggy--she tells you it's been wedged under her wing. When you beat her again and she gives you a Cheato page, this exchange takes place...
--> '''Canary Mary:''' Oh, thank goodness! Here, you can have this. It's been wedged under my...
--> '''Kazooie:''' NO! We don't want to know where it's been!
* Kazooie is a never-ending stream of this in ''Tooie'', due mostly to her role as the [[MetaGuy Meta Girl]] and having her DeadpanSnarker tendencies increased by several orders of magnitude.
** Her exchanges with Salty Joe in Witchyworld.
---> '''Joe:''' Looks like I'm outta fries. I'd better whip up some more.\\
'''Kazooie:''' Yeah, you should prepare for the impending rush.\\
'''Joe:''' Why, you cheeky little...
* The IdleAnimation in both games.
* Then there's Lord Woo Fak Fak's pre battle dialogue in ''Tooie'':
-->'''Lord Woo Fak Fak''': You were going to steal my jiggy and drain my home, leaving me to flap pathetically around on the bottom until I shriveled up and died. Weren't you?
-->'''Kazooie''': Something like that.
* Gruntilda's rhymes will forever be stuck in your head. (Repeating over and over until you're dead?)
* In the first level of ''Tooie'', when you retrieve the {{MacGuffin}} for the guy, he is about to cuss when Banjo interrupts him with, "This is a family game!"
* In Tooie, whenever you get the secret unlockable attack that involves grabbing Kazooie out of the backpack and [[GrievousHarmWithABody BEATING ENEMIES WITH HER.]] Every player first laughs, then feels terrible...[[CrossesTheLineTwice then laughs some more.]]
* Gruntilda's full name. That is all.
-->'''Grunty''': ...and you'll wish you'd never messed with the great Gruntilda Winkybunion!
-->'''Kazooie''': Your last name's ''Winkybunion''?
-->'''Grunty''': Erm... [[BlatantLies no it's not.]] And if you tell anyone, I'll sue you!
-->'''Banjo''': Sure thing, Winky.
** Could count as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome for Banjo, as it's one of the rare times [[NiceGuy he]] of all characters snarks like Kazooie.
* ''Nuts And Bolts'' is by far the most self-aware installment in the series, constantly pointing out the poor logic of the game's universe. Some examples;
** The [[SelfDeprecation "Pointless Collecting"]] challenge at the start of the game.
** Cleaning up the debris after the volcano erupts causes Humba to say "Good thing I had this Jiggy to give away as a reward in case a random emergency happened!"
** The level introductions are parodies of 80's sitcoms, complete with their theme music. For some reason, people over 30 find this hilarious.
** Gruntilda admits to Banjo that if he beats her in a race she won't go through with her latest evil plan ([[spoiler: Polluting the water by having her cat take a crap in it]]) Kazooie points out how stupid this is, while Banjo claims it reminds him of something he did a long time ago [[DiddyKongRacing "...and there was a genie and a giant pig.]]"
** Many of Mumbo's vehicle part descriptions:
--> Description for Chameleon: Vehicle go all wibbly and hard to see when bear press button. Like [[Film/{{Predator}} film with muscle man and big bad alien]].
--> Description for Spirit of Pants: Rubbish Rare website mascot now rubbish vehicle mascot. Not exactly flying lady like on sophisticated cars.
--> Description for [[VivaPinata Papery Pal]]: Bear put papery critter on vehicle and be filled with fun. Mumbo like 'Trouble in Paradise', recommend player buy it tomorrow.
** In Banjoland, a museum made up of elements from past games, the giant trash can appears, literally filled to the brim with copies of ''VideoGame/GrabbedByTheGhoulies'' boxes.
** Boggy appearing ''twice'' in one act, lampshaded by both Banjo and Kazooie.
* If you lose to the FinalBoss in ''Tooie'' and try again:
-->'''Grunty:''' Back for more, eh?\\
'''Banjo:''' Just shut that hatch, and let's get on with it.\\
'''Grunty:''' Fair enough.
* In the beginning of ''Banjo-Kazooie'', Banjo ''sleeps'' through his sister's kidnapping, with his backpack, Kazooie included, hanging on a hat stand. Eventually, Kazooie gets fed up and shouts at Banjo, rocking the stand so much it falls over!
* In the beginning of ''Banjo-Tooie'', Bottles is killed when Gruntilda blasts Banjo's house during a poker game. (He didn't evac because the whole 'Grunty's back!' thing was just a gag) When Banjo and Kazooie meet Jamjars and relate the sarge about his brother's untimely demise, Jamjars asks if Bottles went down fighting.
-->'''Kazooie:''' Playing cards, actually.
-->'''Jamjars:''' Figures.
* When Mumbo brings the alien parent on Hailfire Peaks back to life, the alien asks for help in finding his children, promising gifts in exchange for help. Mumbo has this to say:
-->'''Mumbo:''' Mumbo like gifts! But not tacky alien merchandise!
* Upon finishing ''Grunty's Furnace Fun'', the duo are offered a choice of three prizes, with the top one being Tooty. This exchange happens:
--> '''Banjo:''' Which one should we take?
--> '''Tooty:''' Me! Me! Me!
--> '''Kazooie:''' Err... How about that grotty ugly thing?
--> '''Banjo:''' I think we should take Tooty.
--> '''Kazooie:''' That's what I meant!
--> '''Banjo:''' Kazooie!!!
