* WordOfGod: While Veddge himself remains anonymous, his ex-wife was communicative on Platform/TikTok for a time and divulged some information about the mod's references; notably, some of the collected items like Pumpkin Rick and the rubber duck's "chugga chugga horse horse" description, reference several in-jokes within the creator's social circle, and the overall theme of loss seemed to have real-life parallels to the couple's separation. Eventually though, she stepped back from talking about the mod and delisted videos and comments discussing it, leaving some information lost to the void.

* WhyFandomCantHaveNiceThings: Though Veddge/Steve's Google Drive files and Doomworld forum posts are meant purely as unfiction worldbuilding around the wad's backstory, some fans have taken the wrong message from the process of unraveling the wad's mysteries and believe there's an AlternateRealityGame to be deciphered from discovering the "truth " about the creator and/or the actual house. The conversation in the wad's Doomworld thread tried multiple times to deter such discussions and maintain respect for Veddge's privacy, but following the discovery of the [=TikTok=] of Veddge's wife and further personal details, moderators deemed that the conversations were getting too intrusive on the matter and temporarily closed the thread to further posts.

Per David X Newton (https://youtu.be/edq9bA59wbY?si=JoZlUEIku_RDUiRa&t=1627), these geometry instances were used to place the irregular blood splatters on the floor and were there as intended (also, he refers to this very trope entry. Hi David!)

** The daycare kitchen has some geometry on the floor that appears to suggest that something was supposed to create cracks and spills on the floor, which isn't used for anything.
** A mirrored version of the Ending 1 empty lot exists, but is impossible to access under regular gameplay.

Memetic Mutation is a YMMV trope, not a trivia trope, and it's already cataloged on the YMMV page.


* MemeticMutation: Mower% runs.[[labelnote:Explanation]] After a youtuber who made a video on the wad suggested speedrunning it with the lawnmower from the ''Lawn of the Dead'' wad, several speedruns showed up doing exactly that, with tutorials on how to get the mower into ''My House''. Eventually, the creator of ''Lawn of the Dead'' even made a compatability update for a smoother experience.[[/labelnote]]
