History Funny / UnusAnnus

* "2 Truths and 1 Lie -- Waxing Edition" has the legendary moment when Ethan spins the wheel and discovers that he has to wax Mark's [[GroinAttack pubes]].
-->'''Ethan''': ''(laughing, to Amy, who's filming)'' Give that a zoom.\\

'''Ethan''': It's like shooting fish in a barrel man! For [[AxCrazy Unus]], it ''is''!

** Jake Paul, having [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} completely lost his marbles]] by this point, sits down in a field and starts picking flowers "like a third-grader at a baseball game." When Mark approaches him and attempts a SuicideByCop, Jake is so far gone that he ''doesn't notice''. Later, he becomes BoredWithInsanity and uses the flowers to camouflage himself as a bush.
** By day seven, only Jake, Mark, and Jefree Star are still alive, and somehow "sleeping in shifts" despite being enemies. Mark imagines that they're all circling the same big rock at equidistant points and thus [[MissedHimByThatMuch have no idea where the others are]]. He then amends this so that Jake ''[[MasterOfDisguise is]]'' the rock and the others are trapping him there without knowing it.

*** After Jake starves to death in the middle of the night (Mark: "How do you die in eight days from hunger?"), the rock decays enough that Mark sees Jefree on the other side and strangles him to death, winning the game.

** Later, Mark spins for Ethan... and ''also'' lands on pubes.
--->'''Mark''': ''(after a very long silence)'' ...What's your thoughts on Korea?\\
'''Both''': ''([[ActuallyPrettyFunny hysterical laughter]])''

--->'''Mark''': Have you ever seen ''Film/TheGodfather''? You know how he opened his bedsheets and saw a horse's head? Well, first Spencer [Ethan's dog] would be under those sheets. And then, as you leapt out of bed in shock, I'd put spikes all over the ground. Each of the spikes would be tipped with a bullet ant, so that every step was more painful than the last. And then waiting for you at the foot of the doorway as you slowly make your way out of the room, me, standing over you, with an axe made of the bones of Spencer's spine. [[{{Bathos}} IT'S A SMALL AXE!]] But it can take pieces out of you ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis bit! by bit! by bit!]]'' Starting with your legs and ending with your arms! ''(Both [[{{Corpsing}} crack up]])''

-->'''Mark:''' I want you to forget everything you know.
-->''[[[{{Main/Beat}} A couple seconds of silence]] while Ethan blinks a couple times]''
-->'''Mark:''' Did you do it?
-->'''Ethan:''' [[ExactWords W-who are you again?]]
-->'''Mark:''' Good.

* "DIY Bungee Jumping" gives us this bit:
--> '''Ethan:''' ''(in response to Mark questioning his contempt towards the video's main focus)'' I don't know, I feel like we've had a couple bad ideas.
--> '''Mark:''' [[SelectiveObliviousness When have we ever had a bad idea?]]
--> ''(rapid SmashCut to [[InstantlyProvenWrong various agonizing moments from the rest of the channel]] up to the video's upload date)''
--> '''Ethan:''' You're right, we've never had a bad idea.
--> '''Mark:''' No, [[BlatantLies of course not.]]
** Pretty much the entire video counts, especially the [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic Disclaimer song]] and the ending, where [[spoiler: Mark’s jump was apparently so fast and so hard that his entire intestinal tract had burst out of his asshole, including the [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants nails he ate for breakfast (with no milk, of course)]] which had collided with the gas pipe he had dug up, resulting in a nuclear explosion, killing everyone in a 5 mile radius.]]

--> '''Ethan:''' (draping himself seductively over a chair) So, I hear you're failing English...

'''Ethan''': ''[[HellYesMoment Yeah]]!''
*** Unus continues his killing streak by hunting Jefree Star though the woods and, later, repeatedly stabbing [[UsefulNotes/SpaceX Elon Musk]] to death.

*** When [[WebVideo/{{Smosh}} Anthody Padilla]] searches for a water source immediately afterward, Mark imagines that he saw what happened to Ethan ("he took one slurp and shat himself to death!") and [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere noped right out of there]].

*** When Jenny receives a hatchet from a sponsor, Mark speculates that the sponsor thought she might be related to Creator/JackNicholson and wanted to re-enact ''Film/TheShining''. She ends up killing Annus with it.
** When the cornucopia is replenished with food, supplies, and weapons ("The Feast"), nobody is willing to risk actually going back there except for Jefree Star, who decides to steal Anthony's memoirs [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} for some reason]].
--->'''Ethan''': Okay, so there's ''no one'' there except for Jefree Star, and instead of getting the food or the supplies or the weapons, he steals things with sentimental value for Anthony! Oh, I love it!

** Creator/JakePaul, undergoing SanitySlippage, begs Anthony to put him out of his misery. Anthony [[NotWorthKilling declines]] to kill him.

** Jake Paul, having [[SanitySlippage completely lost his marbles]] at this point, randomly starts picking flowers in the arena "like a third-grader at a baseball game." When Mark tries to get him to kill him, Jake is so far gone that he ''doesn't notice''. Later, he becomes BoredWithInsanity and uses the flowers to camouflage himself as a bush.

* In the abridged recreation of "We Buy a Professional Hypnosis Video and React to It," Siri proves to be...[[ArtificialStupidity less than helpful]].[[note]]Keep in mind, Mark's father is ''dead''.[[/note]]

-->'''Siri''': ...[[DisappearedDad I don't see a father in your contacts]]. [[InnocentlyInsensitive What's your father's first and last name?]]
-->'''Mark and Ethan''': (barely-contained hysterics)

*** WebVideo/ShaneDawson decides to try the water near the end of the video, [[TooDumbToLive with the exact same result]].
** When Anthony and Mark tell stories about themselves to each other, Ethan jokes that it's because they [[ItsAllAboutMe can't think of anything to talk about]].

*** When Jenny received a hatchet from a sponsor, Mark speculates that the sponsor thought she might be related to Creator/JackNicholson and wanted to re-enact ''Film/TheShining''. She ends up killing Annus with it.

** Unus' death. Rather than go down in a blaze of glory, or surviving all the way to the end of the game, he ends up dying in a "[[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext failed double suicide]]" with Lily Singh. Mark and Ethan are... [[DroppedABridgeOnHim disappointed]].

* As noted in the Nightmare Fuel entry in the YMMV page, the Melon Man personality Ethan takes up after failing to crush the melon in “Crushing Watermelons Betwixt our Mighty Thighs” can be pretty scary, but, like many things on the channel, if you don’t take it seriously it can become hilarious, especially with the weird [[Franchise/LordOfTheRings Golum]] voice the audio distortion gives Ethan.

* "Creating [=Mark FISHbach"=] is packed to the gills with hilarity, as Mark and Ethan don mermaid tails and attempt to swim. Ethan demonstrates surprising grace, while Mark [[EpicFail almost drowns several times]]. It culminates when they each stand at the deep end of the pool, recite a narrative, and dive in. After Ethan's graceful dive, Mark attempts the same, loses his balance, and belly-flops into the pool with a resigned, "Aw, ''fuck''."

'''Mark''': Day one? How'd you get dysentery that... how much did you ''shit''!?

** "Anthony and Mark tell stories about themselves to each other. They can't think of anything to talk about, so they just talk about themselves."
** WebVideo/JennyNicholson is every bit as psychotic as Unus, starting a forest fire on the first night to intimidate the competition (sleeping soundly through the next day as a result) and then forces Lily Singh to kill either Jenna or Dr Lupo.

* "We Made Every YouTuber Battle in Literature/TheHungerGames" is surprisingly funny, given that it's largely just Mark and Ethan writing a narrative to match the very laconic events described on screen.
** Unus (Ethan's AxCrazy alter-ego) sets the tone by [[MadBomber blowing up]] four people mere seconds after the horn sounded. It's Mark's [[AtomicFBomb reaction]] that really sells the moment.

** Creator/{{Zoella}} kills LetsPlay/DrDisrespect via NeckSnap early on, and Mark and Ethan crack up imagining how high she would have had to jump in order to do so.
** Based on Unus' impressive kill-count thus far, you'd expect Ethan himself to perform similarly well. [[EpicFail Nope]].

*** When [[WebVideo/{{Smosh}} Anthody Padilla]] searches for a water source immediately afterward, Mark imagines that he saw what happened to Ethan ("he took one slurp and shat himself to death!") and [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere immediately fled the scene]].

* In the sausage making video, Ethan forgets the word "skillet", and calls it anything that vaguely sounds like "skillet" ("skittle," "skillup," "griddle," etc.). [[OverlyLongGag This goes on for over a minute]].

* In the video "What Was The Most Painful Thing We've Ever Endured?", when Ethan mentions going into shock from his peanut allergy, Mark remembers the time [[NoodleIncident he had a heart attack]]... ''nearly eighteen minutes into the video''.

* In the abridged recreation of "We Buy a Professional Hypnosis Video and React to It," Siri proves to be...[[ArtificialStupidity less than helpful]].

* Near the end of the "Annual Unus Annus Costume Contest," Mark and Ethan's prompt for their costume is "Cute." While Mark chooses [[WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewGroove Emperor Kuzco]], Ethan chooses a skeleton... with an inflatable dick bone. Mark turns around like a true showman, then pauses for a few seconds before looking down at the dick bone in silent horror.

** Eventually Mark decides to just demonstrate how to hammer properly. First thing he does? [[https://youtu.be/5MezBsxsiCA?t=617 Put the nail on the board upside down]].

-->'''Mark''': WHAT THE FUCK IS A GONGOOZLER!?

* At some point during filming for October's videos, Mark shattered his nose after a chair somehow plummeted down from the ceiling on him. That's not funny. What is funny is that he later posted a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onSQH_90jyo video]] to his main channel, [[AmusingInjuries treating the incident like a complete joke]], even going so far as to edit his face onto a picture of the ''last'' time he recorded himself in the hospital.

* "Mark Teaches Ethan to Wrestle" plays out a lot like a hyperactive toddler trying to knock down his longsuffering big brother. Partway through the video Mark makes use of a dog toy to demonstrate some holds, only to have little puppy Bodhi dart in to snatch it away.

** After several months, they return to Nutball with Beyblade spinners. Most of the video is spent actually putting the things together and attempting to spin them. The toys keep falling apart, to the point that Mark asks, “Do we need to look up a tutorial?” At the very end of the video, one of the metal parts unexpectedly hits Ethan in the crotch.

* "Puberty Simulator": Mark attaches a balloon to the end of a rubber hose and tries to stick it down Ethan's pants before the latter willing submits. They then reenact a scene where Ethan has a RagingStiffie while at the front of the classroom.

-->'''Jack:''' [[FMinusMinus I think we're going to have to open up more of the alphabet on this one, guys!]]

** And when he finally does his demonstration, [[TheAllegedExpert all he ends up doing is bending the nail]].

* In "Ethan Redefines Male Beauty," Mark and Ethan randomly sing a SongParody of "[[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Gaston]]", turning him into a InUniverse MemeticSexGod and BadassBisexual.

* In "Ethan Roasts Mark for 15 Minutes Straight," Ethan struggles to insult Mark, while Mark struggles equally hard to complement Ethan. The only insult that really seems to effect Mark is, "Sometimes I don't think you smell very good!" Mark is speechless for a few moments after this, looking genuinely hurt.

** Eventually Mark decides to just demonstrate how to hammer properly. First thing he does? [[TheAllegedExpert Put the nail on the board]] [[https://youtu.be/5MezBsxsiCA?t=617 upside down]].
