** They once suffered fierce backlash after their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zP7W-f3JVs playthrough]] of ''[[VideoGame/{{Trials}} Trials Fusion]]'' inexplicably had a Wendy's ad in the corner. It turns out what had actually happened was their product key was visible in the corner and they didn't realize it after the fact, so they had Barry "cover it up with a burger". Cue mostly negative votes on the video and outrage over a false advertisement for a deal that wasn't even being offered anymore.

It turns out what had actually happened was their product key was visible in the corner and they didn't realize it after the fact, so they had Barry "cover it up with a burger". What was particularly funny is the ad in the corner was an old advertisement for a deal that wasn't even available anymore. Cue mostly negative votes on the video and outrage over a false advertisement for a deal that wasn't even being offered anymore.

** Arin has also made it very clear he intends to not only do Game Grumps until the day he dies, but actually wants to die, on-screen, during his final episode.
---> '''Arin:''' I intend to die as I lived: ''fully monetized!''
* ''WebVideo/JonTron'' similarly plays with this one during ''Waterproofing My Life With FLEX TAPE'' where he offers a disclaimer at the beginning that he's not just sponsored by them:
--> '''Jon:''' I want you to be as sold on Flex Tape as I am! DISCLAIMER: I am not actually sponsored by Flex Tape in any way! Although I wish I was! ([[AsideGlance Winks]]) call me!

Given the contentious nature of the term, there is no completely agreed upon definition of "selling out", but the one that seems to hold the most usage is "compromising your integrity for monetary gain" (usually artistic integrity, although there are other situations in which the accusation is thrown about) and that there are degrees of selling out (From ''"Sure, I have to make a [[SillyLoveSongs Silly Love Song]] to make the rent, but I'm going to make the best Silly Love Song I can"'' at the lower end to ''"What's popular right now? Let's put in the minimal effort to cash in on that."'' at the higher end).

* Music/KurtCobain also lived in fear of being perceived as a sell-out. While he wanted to become successful the explosive popularity of ''Music/{{Nevermind}}'' in the charts was not what he had in mind at all. Suddenly his music was played by the same kind of poseurs he hated. He tried to keep their sound as alienating as possible, even making ''Music/InUtero'' purposefully dark and less slick.
