* ScheduleSlip: Fragger wanted to do a full guide to the Insanity difficulty for ''VideoGame/MassEffect2''. He never finished it (only getting to Tali's recruitment mission) and to this day people come on to that page and snark about how thankful they are for Fragger showing them how to finish other tough segments of the game.

* CreatorBacklash: Ryan seemed to carry some embarrassment over the "[[LetsPlay/AchievementHunterGrandTheftAutoSeries I'm still in the air]]" meme.



** "YOLO" as one of Ray's catchphrases. Ray himself has not said it in a long time and has sworn that he will not say it again as it is something he now regrets saying so often.

* {{Defictionalization}}: Michael mentions how he found a glossary of the Achievement Hunters' made-up words for damage degrees and having to correct it, leading to jokes about the non-existent "The Gavin Free Dictionary". To no one's surprise, fan versions of exactly that sprung up days later. [[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mvYdLYaIJiYPGv0oy8N_l6hGuQnjAeuMamHmTjv8wuU/edit?pli=1 One example.]]
