History Memes / Technoblade

** "The pig incident"[[labelnote:Explanation]]A screenshot of a section from an updated version of the aforementioned Wikipedia page, and a lesser seen variant of the above.[[/labelnote]]

** "Quackity, they weren't always orphans." [[labelnote:Explanation]]The explanation of the tagline. When prompted on the Dream SMP, Techno [[DontExplainTheJoke awkwardly pointed out that the joke implied]] the worst thing to have happened to the orphans was losing their parents.[[/labelnote]]

* 732 clicks per second. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During Technoblade's PvP days, he wound up amassing a few accusations of him using an autoclicker. In response, he recorded [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3Zps67zpYg a video]] where he clicked his mouse 32 times, only to reveal the website claimed him to have clicked [[RefugeInAudacity 732 times per second]].[[/labelnote]]

* Techno-[X]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During WebVideo/SMPEarth, a meme arose during the Battle of the Bridges where numerous items associated with Techno were called 'Techno-[X]'. This included [[BowAndSwordInAccord Technogun]], [[CoolPlane Technoplane]], [[PitTrap Technotrap]], [[ProngsOfPoseidon Technotrident]], [[TakeOverTheWorld Technoplanet]], and [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers Techno]] [[TheMerch YouTooz]].[[/labelnote]]

** "Bro, that is straight-up the worst thing to happen to those orphans." [[labelnote:Explanation]]During SMP Earth, Techno had [[DisproportionateRetribution deported a bunch of villagers due to not providing him with the correct trades he needed]]. He was content to leave them as such. His co-leader Philza, was not, and proceeded to [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill nuke the area]] the villagers had been deported to. Techno offered this input in response.[[/labelnote]]

* Techno-[X]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]During WebVideo/SMPEarth a meme arose during the Battle of the Bridges where numerous items associated with Techno were called 'Techno-[X]'. This included [[BowAndSwordInAccord Technogun]], [[CoolPlane Technoplane]], [[PitTrap Technotrap]], [[ProngsOfPoseidon Technotrident]], [[TakeOverTheWorld Technoplanet]], and [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers Techno]] [[TheMerch YouTooz]].[[/labelnote]]

* Anarchy! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Techno's persona on the Dream SMP was a BombThrowingAnarchist who saw government as the source of all things wrong in the world.[[/labelnote]]

*** Carl. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A big donator named Fossilnet began donating around the time that [=SMPEarth=] was being streamed, requesting a villager be named Carl. Techno vetoed the idea as it didn't fit with the rest of his villager naming theme. Undeterred, Fossilnet wound up donating in excess of 500 dollars during the Dream SMP, culminating in Techno's prized horse being named Carl.[[/labelnote]]

*** "[[WastefulWishing I want a bell.]]" [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Techno became trapped in jail on the Dream SMP, he wound up accidentally summoning the server god. While Dream was still stunned by their good fortune, as they could ask to be taken out of the prison, Techno simply demanded a bell, to the former's horror. Techno then proceeded to sell out [[CrossesTheLineTwice while still incarcerated]], to his audience's delight.[[/labelnote]]

* Creator/JonathanSwift. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Techno once read ''Literature/AModestProposal'' by the aforementioned author, having spoken about it in one of his Sky Wars videos. He joined the Dream SMP years later and was working on his trading hall. After leaving two Zombie Villagers in the process of being cured (one was a baby) and returning to find only the adult survived, Techno asked in shock if the adult had eaten the baby. He then proceeded to [[CrossesTheLineTwice name the adult after the author]] of ''A Modest Proposal''.[[/labelnote]]

Military escalation [[labelnote:Explanation]] A [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pig_war.png screenshot]] of the first three sections on the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_War_(1859) Pig War of 1859]]'s Wikipedia page quickly went memetic due to jokes about how [[BloodKnight Techno]] caused tensions to rise among different factions on various Minecraft servers, including his faction on [=SMPEarth=], his persona on the Dream SMP, and Hypixel Skyblock. However, the titles of the sections themselves have since been updated, rendering the screenshot outdated.[[/labelnote]]

* Elbow Reveal. [[labelnote:Explanation]]One of Techno's early videos had him mention that he wanted to be different from most [=YouTubers=] by setting absurdly high milestones. For 1 million subscribers, for example, [[ComicallySmallBribe he would do an elbow reveal]]. For the other elbow, he required 10 million subscribers.[[/labelnote]]

* [[TheFaceless What does Technoblade look like?]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Techno has revealed his face on occasion in older videos like his "Hardcore Steering Wheel" stream and "Cooking With Technoblade". However, due to the camera angle, his age gap between videos, some of the videos being deleted or unlisted, and Techno not having a proper face reveal (until his passing), it's quite common for his audience to fail to remember just how his face looks.[[/labelnote]]

*** [[{{Understatement}} We have bad news for you.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]In line with his dark humor, the subreddit's answer to the above question changed to such following his passing.[[/labelnote]]

* "''¿¡Ay caramba, dónde está la biblioteca?!''" [[labelnote:Explanation]] Translates to "Oh my gosh, where is the library?!" During a Bed Wars game, Techno ambushed and killed Tommy while shouting this at the top of his lungs. He then proceeded to do the exact same thing a year or two later, with Tommy shouting, "[[OhNoNotAgain Not again]]!"[[/labelnote]]

*** [[WastefulWishing "I want a bell."]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Techno became trapped in jail on the Dream SMP, he wound up accidentally summoning the server god. While Dream was still stunned by their good fortune, as they could ask to be taken out of the prison, Techno simply demanded a bell, to the former's horror. Techno then proceeded to sell out [[CrossesTheLineTwice while still incarcerated]], to his audience's delight.[[/labelnote]]

* You missed-[X]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Techno started off survival on WebVideo/SMPEarth, some fans helpfully pointed out when he missed items of note, such as diamonds. Unfortunately, due to stream delay or shaders, some of these comments wound up either being missed themselves or audience error. This led to Techno dismissing most of them as fake or untrustworthy, and the chat responding by telling him he missed things ranging from improbable (such as Netherite in the ground) to the impossible (such as Air).[[/labelnote]]

* First Try Baby! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A meme where no matter how many tries it took Techno to do anything difficult, he would always say this afterwards, claiming the audience hallucinated the failed attempts. His chat usually joins in following these events.[[/labelnote]]
