* The whole pizzeria chain's incompetence and corruption is summed up in one sentence: "[[MythologyGag You can't prove anything!]]", ''in an advert to seek new employees.''

-->''All these animatronics have made us so famous, They've got history, almost all of it's heinous.\\

** And perhaps the most egregious is when a little boy supposedly suffers extreme internal and external damage while at the pizzeria. The papers specifically state that they broke '''100''' bones in their body, ''and they didn't even notice until after they got home!'' That's a whole new level of RefugeInAudacity right there.

* The Ball-pit minigame, which involves having to click at the right moment with an arrow sliding across the screen dictating where Helpy is going to land when he jumps, with the goal of clicking so the arrow stops in the ball-pit while cutesy fun music plays in the background. Failing it? Helpy hits the floor with a ''SickeningCrunch'', and just lays there completely still and the game becomes dead silent for quite a few seconds. [[MoodWhiplash Only for a videogame sound effect to play and then the minigame goes back to where it began and the fun music plays again.]] This moment is the page image.

** There's something grimly humorous about the ending of the advert, where it counts up how much money the protagonist has left after buying the franchise package for only one reason... '''''He only has 100 dollars!''''' While there's no indication of how much they had saved up beforehand, it ''is'' pretty funny to imagine that they had much more than that, and the package costed him almost everything he had. The intro ''does'' call it "a huge gamble". [[spoiler:Of course, if the protagonist is indeed Mike Afton, then to him, it would be worth it.]]

* When you first start the salvage procedure for [[spoiler: Baby, she]] has an arm resting on the table as if leaning forward to level with you for a second.
* [[spoiler:Funtime Chica finally makes a canon appearance! ...about ''an entire game too late'' to be relevant to the lore. Poor Chica just can't catch a break...]]

** While handling lawsuits, the toy Freddy is shown at a desk wearing glasses, an exhausted expression on his face. Adorable, but also hilarious. [[spoiler:If you run out of money during this segment, he throws his arms up in despair.]]

** More BlackComedy: While tallying the number of lawsuits, the counter has two digits. Meaning that it's entirely possible for just one Freddy's location to have literally ''dozens'' of new lawsuits '''every day'''. [[spoiler:Ironically, you don't need to get that many lawsuits to actually get the bad endings! The Bankruptcy ending requires you to run out of money trying to pay off any lawsuit, and the Blacklisted ending only requires ''three'' lawsuits...'''a day'''.]]

** And then the funniest part about these lawsuits: [[spoiler:the pizzeria is a trap to lure the killer animatronics to their death. So the lawsuits were probably all made up by Cassette Man to keep the ruse that this is a normal pizzeria going.]]
* Even more BlackComedy is whenever [[spoiler: Springtrap kills you and says, "That was easier than I thought it would be." It's almost as if he's ''[[LeaningOnTheFourthWall calling the player out.]]'']]

* If a dangerous animatronic somehow gets into your pizzeria before the salvage sequence, all that appears is a dummy with words "No one's here (I'm already inside)". That means that the creepy, dangerous, [[NightmareFuel nightmare-inducing]] animatronics took the time to... set up a silly-looking dummy. ''This includes Springtrap'', who is [[spoiler: a deranged child murderer.]]

* The advert you get at the end of the game [[spoiler:once you get the GoldenEnding]] is basically [[spoiler:the game apologizing for tricking you into thinking it was just a simulator]].
* Although it can be considered NightmareFuel, [[spoiler: the insanity ending can be darkly humorous when one considers that after the new manager happens to stumble across random three blueprints and a recording with zero context whatsoever, the company decides HeKnowsTooMuch, fires him, claims he's insane so that no one would believe him, and then sends him off to an asylum to get him lobotomized[[note]]"Lobotomy? You hardly know me!"[[/note]].]] Overreaction, much?

** In fact, ''all'' of the ending narrations are hilarious. From [[spoiler:running out of money and filing for bankruptcy]] to [[spoiler:being so reckless that ''even [[IncompetenceInc Fazbear Entertainment]] [[EvenEvilHasStandards wants nothing to do with you]]'']], Tutorial Unit's chipper tone and the cheesy music and art running through the whole thing makes each misfortunate ending go out with a chuckle.
* In the first five games there has always been a fan ''somewhere''...except for this one, until you figure out exactly why you don't see it. [[spoiler:You are literally ''inside of the fan, '''and''' it serves as a main gameplay mechanic.'' The RunningGag has truly gone full circle.]]

% Since Ultimate Custom Night is now its own released game, examples relating to UCN exclusively have been moved to its page.

[[folder:Ultimate Custom Night]]
* Granted, when it happens it'll become decidedly ''un''funny, but just the idea of Helpy, the Trash Animatronics, or ''[[spoiler:Phone Guy]]'' getting in on the Custom Night action is hilarious.
* The image on Scottgames while Scott worked on the first office was his avatar wearing a hard hat. It's adorable.
* Scott finally posts the first image of the new office, and what finally makes its [[SarcasmMode terrifying]] return? '''''[[MemeticMutation THE FAN.]]'''''
* Scott has begun posting details about how certain characters will work in the Ultimate Custom Night; and while it promises to have plenty of scares, there are some pretty amusing details:
** Helpy will randomly appear on the desk when the tablet is lowered; if the player doesn't immediately deactivate him, he'll attack. How exactly will Helpy attack you? According to the [[http://steamcommunity.com/games/738060/announcements/detail/1654382972075930184 Steam post]], he ''[[ImprovisedWeapon literally plays the airhorn straight into your face.]]'' '''GAME WIN''' for him!
** Remember all those jokes at [[TheScrappy Balloon Boy's]] expense? Well, it turns out JJ is ''[[UpToEleven even worse]]''; Balloon Boy just temporarily disables your flashlight before wandering out of your office, whereas JJ '''[[OhCrap disables your door controls]]''' while she's in the office! Looks like there's a new [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFuckboys Enragement]] [[MemeticMutation Child]] in town...
** And then there’s Old Man Consequences, which just says “Better catch a fish”. No explanation of what he does or if he kills or just hinders you, just “Better catch a fish”.
** The sheer fact that before Ennard strikes, it makes a squeaking sound.
** Mangle's description. Sure, it may be NightmareFuel, but Scott [[CallBack once again]] trolls us by [[AmbiguousGender flip-flopping Mangle's gender]], using "he/him/his" pronouns in one sentence and "she/her/hers" pronouns in another.
** Withered Chica's mechanic: she crawls around in the vents, like a number of other animatronics...except that because she's significantly larger than most of them, [[RealityEnsues she gets lodged in the vent trying to get out]]. And none of the other animatronics (well, aside from Mangle) can get past her if she's stuck there! Apparently she can eventually climb out and jumpscare you, but even this is amusing if you picture the mental image of [[ARareSentence a broken animatronic chicken awkwardly trying to free itself from a tight vent]].
** Rockstar Chica's Mechanic: she stands outside the doors at all times, and not even closing the door on her will make her leave. The thing that will stop her from attacking you is double-clicking the "wet-floor" sign at the door where she is standing at. Only that will discourage her from entering the room, as she is afraid of slipping on the water.
** On AprilFoolsDay, Scott posted three fake descriptions related to theories about the animatronics — namely, that [[AllJustADream the entire series is a dream]] (claiming Nightmare Freddy would show up with a clock and you would wake up if you didn't stop him), Foxy is trying to help the player (claiming Foxy would assist the player in various ways), and Phone Guy is Purple Guy (claiming Phone Guy won't call if Springtrap is in the vents).
** And now Phone Guy's actual mechanic has been revealed: he calls into the office, and you have a limited time to find the mute button and mute the call before he starts talking; once you miss that window, you — and the noise-sensitive animatronics near you — have to listen to the entirety of his phone call.
** While Nightmare Freddy's mechanic is mostly [[NightmareFuel terrifying]], there's something chuckle-worthy about the fact that the mini-Freddies [[AscendedFanon are now officially]] [[FanNickname referred to as]] [[FluffyTheTerrible "Freddles"]].
** Apparently Scott is on a mission to give every version of Chica the most ridiculous mechanics he can come up with. Chica starts out in the kitchen, being generally clumsy [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer (Scott's description, not ours)]] and knocking over pots and pans; the description suggests that the camera in the kitchen will be broken again, so you have to listen for Chica's sounds. The music box for this game is also located in the kitchen; Chica doesn't care whether the music box is wound up, but — and we are once again using Scott's exact words — "she can grow tired of the music selection playing". Basically, you have to turn on a new song every time the sound of the pots and pans stops, as this means Chica is bored with the current music and will soon leave the kitchen; and if you change the song while she ''is'' happy with it, she'll [[BerserkButton immediately leave the kitchen and hunt you down]]. So basically, along with the various other tasks you have to do in order to survive the night — watch the cameras, check the doors, close the vents, adjust the heat, "catch a fish," [[BreadEggsMilkSquick not look directly at the demonic puppet in your office]] — you also have to ''[[ARareSentence cater to the musical sensibilities of an animatronic chicken]]''.
*** The fact that Chica only leaves the kitchen if she doesn't like the music makes it even better, since it suggests that she's attacking you more out of boredom than malice. (Or perhaps she is so annoyed with your music tastes that she '''[[DisproportionateRetribution tries to kill you]]''' in order to turn it off!)
** El Chip does not actually jumpscare you; rather, he pops up in your office to play loud, colorful ads for his home restaurant, "El Chip's Fiesta Buffet." You have to hit "Skip" on the terminal or press Enter on your keyboard to turn off the ads, presumably before Music Man or another noise-sensitive animatronic gets you. Special mention has to go to this spectacular line from the Steam description:
--->''El Chip is just a cameo mascot when he appears at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. His real passion lies in authentic Mexican cuisine.''
** While Withered Bonnie's description is pretty creepy, it can still make you chuckle due to its resemblance to a certain ''[[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants Spongebob]]'' [[MemeticMutation meme]]. ("He's just standing there...'''menacingly'''!")
** And to round out the Chica brigade, we have Funtime Chica, who... doesn't actually attack you. Instead, the description states that she just wants her time in the spotlight (quite possibly a FandomNod regarding Chica being OutOfFocus), and she occasionally appears in the office to pose like a model, complete with distracting camera flashes.
** Toy Freddy has quite possibly the most meta mechanic so far: he's apparently "retired", and spends his time in the Parts and Service Room playing his favorite video game, "Five Nights at Mr. Hugs". Unfortunately, Toy Freddy isn't very good at video games, and if he gets jumpscared (by '''Mr. Hugs''', remember), he'll RageQuit and leave the office to jumpscare ''you'', without any way of pacifying him or preventing him from reaching you. This means that the player effectively has to play [=FNAF=] ''within [=FNAF=]'', checking the cams on Toy Freddy's big-screen TV to make sure the correct door is closed.
*** This is also serves as a BrickJoke for Mr. Hugs having a risk rating of 1 in the Tycoon Mode; from a certain perspective, Mr. Hugs ''can and absolutely will kill you if not managed properly''.
** Circus Baby, Nightmare Mangle, and Nightmare Bonnie all share the same mechanic: they'll attack only once per night, in a random order and at a random time with no warning. There are only two ways to stop them; one is to keep the right door closed at all times (less than ideal, for [[ResourceManagementGameplay obvious reasons]]), but the other is — [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer and once again, this IS the actual mechanic]] — to ''buy their plushies from the Prize Corner'' using Faz-Coins, which you accumulate by blocking jumpscares and/or finding the coins on the cameras. Oh, and the difficulty setting for these characters doesn't affect their AI, but rather the prices of said plushies.
** Rockstar Freddy stands in your office throughout the night and occasionally wakes up to demand Faz-Coins from you. You can either pay him (which puts him back to sleep) or, should you be pressed for coins, you can turn up the heat in the room briefly, which will cause him to malfunction and ''think'' he's been paid. Between the plushies and this mechanic, it's not out of the question that Scott is delivering something of a TakeThat towards DLC and microtransactions.
** The same day as Rockstar Freddy was announced, the Trash Animatronics also had their mechanic posted. [[TheUnreveal It's just three question marks, with the mechanic itself being concealed.]] [[TrollingCreator At this point, we probably should have expected it.]]
** While Bonnie's mechanic is mostly terrifying, there's something amusing about how Scott describes the arrangement. Bonnie and Foxy have apparently been forced to share Pirate's Cove, and Bonnie is ''not'' happy about it; it almost sounds like the premise to some sort of insane sitcom. Not to mention, the way you monitor whether or not it's safe to look at the Pirate's Cove camera is with ''a figurine on your desk''. Looks like those plushies aren't the only life-saving merchandise in Ultimate Custom Night!
* As a meta-example, Scott beta-tested 50/20 mode and recorded [[https://steamcommunity.com/games/738060/announcements/detail/1652136246498361634 his results]]. You can see [[HarderThanHard where this]] [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption is going]], but the most surprising thing is that he died to Nightmarionne in '''less than a second!''' He actually died to Nightmarionne multiple times on his few tries (four of his first six deaths were to Nightmarionne, while the other two were to Nightmare BB), to which Scott gave this wonderfully understated reaction:
--> [[CaptainObvious Nightmarionne seems to be a real problem.]]
** Later that day, Scott's son Braden playtested Ultimate Custom Night, leading to this incredible exchange:
--> He recommended that I nerf Bonnie and Foxy. [[CrossesTheLineTwice I told him to]] [[MemeticMutation git gud.]]
** A nice bit of comedy gold in the testing logs pops up when you notice that Scott was jumpscared by [[SuddenlyShouting HAPPY]] [[BerserkButton FROG]] at 00:15:20 during one run. [[BrickJoke Guess she's not who he expected to see]]....
** And of course, the community did as the community does; affectionate mockery, such as [[https://www.reddit.com/r/fivenightsatfreddys/comments/8gtzze/just_normal_beta_testing/?st=jgz8t09w&sh=f60a7859 this masterful animation]].
* As another meta-example, voice acting listings have been discovered for the Mediocre Melodies as well as other characters. One interesting listing is Mr. Hippo's, who happens to have a word count of ''2000'' while most of the others have around 100.
** Based on the job descriptions, these voices will be used for when the animatronics kill you, just like in the main game. So what Mr. Hippo is going to say that warrants this large amount of words is anyone's guess.
* [[https://steamcommunity.com/games/738060/announcements/detail/2698097983460171459 Scott's response]] to his ongoing "friendly rivalry" with Dawko. From the [[CallBack almost Phone Guy-like way]] in which he calmly describes how Dawko [[DisproportionateRetribution apparently took four hostages]] and demanded that Scott make 50/20 mode easier to the [[spoiler:possible [[TheReveal accidental spoiler]] of '''51'''/20 mode]], it's clear that Scott [[TrollingCreator hasn't lost his edge when it comes to messing with the fans]].
* Pretty much everything related to the lead-up to release is either amusing or [[NightmareFuel terrifying]], but special mention must go to the way Scott built up [[UpToEleven the extra characters]]:
** First, an update to the [=ScottGames=] website featured a blurb stating "[[ShoutOut A new]] [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros irritation]] [[MemeticMutation approaches!]]" The "new irritation" turned out to be [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysWorld DeeDee]] of all characters, who has the power to [[OhCrap add characters that aren't currently in the night]]. When one fan on the [=FNAF=] subreddit attempted to point out a flaw in this design, [[https://www.reddit.com/r/fivenightsatfreddys/comments/8pa6cj/look_a_thing_idk_anymore_oh_its_dee_dee/e09klgf/ Scott was quick to set set the record straight]].
--->'''[=Doo-wop-a-saurus=]:''' [[TemptingFate Well, at least she doesn't]] [[HopeSpot make 50/20 mode any harder]]
--->'''Scott Cawthon:''' [[WhamLine Actually...]]
** Another update was soon added, teasing two unknown new characters. The blurb on that?
--> [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Things get worse.]]
** A few days later, the site was updated to reveal Shadow Bonnie as one of the two characters revealed. A few more days passed, and the other character was revealed as Plushtrap, which would seem to finalize the number of characters at 53...except the same update added a third box with question marks. The text below now read:
--> [[SerialEscalation Things get much worse.]]
*** On the subject of Plushtrap, his mechanic is apparently that he sits on his chair on a random camera, and will jumpscare you unless you startle him off his chair first. That's right: after six games of getting jumpscared by animatronics, ''[[TheDogBitesBack you finally get to jumpscare them back]]''!
** Between the reveals of Shadow Bonnie and Plushtrap, Scott apparently decided to release the UCN [[https://gamejolt.com/games/UCN/348047 demo]] for everyone else to test. Upon downloading the file, the first thing you may notice is that it's somehow only 8 MB, which seems strikingly small even for the apparently stripped-down version Scott mentioned. [[spoiler: That's because it's yet another troll game. This time it's a reskinned version of ''Doofas'' (the very first game Scott ever created).]]
*** From that demo, we also obtained this legendary conversation:
-->'''Freddy:''' [[AscendedMeme Chica, you have lore relevance!]]
-->'''Withered Chica:''' The fandom will be so happy!
** ''And then'', on Sunday June [=22nd=], the day after the demo, Scott created a new Steam post mentioning that, in the [[InvertedTrope grand]] [[ScheduleSlip tradition]] of [=FNAF=], he was originally planning on releasing UCN ''that day'', rather than in a week as promised; however, due to his promise to Dawko not to release the game while Dawko was on vacation, he is unable to do so. He then says that the fandom "will suffer for it", vowing to ''add at least one new character '''every single day''' until the game releases''!
*** Also, note that Scott now says he isn't allowed to release the game until the 27th, the day Dawko gets back from vacation. [[TrollingCreator The original release date given was the 29th.]] Even when admitting that the game is coming out later than expected, Scott ''still'' [[MindScrew can't help but release it early]]!
** Scott has updated his website again, the third character has been revealed as Nightmare Chica. He has also added three more boxes below Shadow Bonnie, Plushtrap and Nightmare Chica. The text now reads:
--> [[RuleOfThree Things get much, much worse.]]
** Bonnet appeared in the next update, with a pose and facial expression that screams "And I'm here too!"
** The Minireenas have a similar expression, in the update after that.
** Scott has updated his website with Lolbit in the sixth box, and a seventh box below the Minireenas. The text now says:
--> [[SerialEscalation Things get much, much, much worse.]]
* When you get jumpscared by Mr. Hippo, you can get an [[spoiler:''extended'' monologue about completely random, everyday things like sourdough bread]].
* [[spoiler: The unlockable cutscenes...are FNaF anime cutscenes. It's as hilarious as it sounds and then some.]]
[[/folder]]

** Bonnet appeared after Scott updated his website.
