[[caption-width-right:233:You be trollin'!]]
You know what time it is forum, it's time for the Comment Question of the day. So I want you to describe Equals Three here. Leave your interesting or creative responses in the comments section below.
''[[http://www.youtube.com/user/RayWilliamJohnson Equals Three]]'' (=3) is a YouTube series hosted by Ray William Johnson, who reviews viral videos he finds or are sent to him. Three videos are shown and a question submitted via video is posed for the commenters to respond to in the comments section. New videos are posted every Tuesday and Friday. Currently the [[http://www.youtube.com/members?s=ms&t=a&g=0 most subscribed channel]] on YouTube.
He also releases songs and videos under the account name [[http://www.youtube.com/user/Yourfavoritemartian Your Favorite Martian]].
It has a Spin-Off in Spanish: [[http://www.youtube.com/user/IgualATres Igual a tres]], hosted by Pedro Flores.
Not to be confused with [[CatSmile :3]].
----
'''This series provides examples of:'''
* ActingForTwo: A second character known only as [[{{Troll}} the Troll]] shows up sometimes...trolling.
* AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent: Other guys show up doing the show sometimes, with little actual introduction. So far we've seen [=meekakitty=], [=KassemG=], GarfunkelAndOates, [[JapaneseRanguage Bobby Lee]], [[YogiBear TJ Miller]], and friggin' ''GabrielIglesias''.
* AutoTune: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBB7sYeCPoE This]] episode.
* ButtMonkey: Recently, the Google+ logo.
* CatchPhrase: ''I'm just sayin'.''
** "What's happenin', forum?"
** "Leave your interesting or creative responses in the comments section *deep bass/squeaky voice/other sound effect* below."
** "Gee! Zus!"
*** This becomes a SubvertedCatchPhrase when he says, "'''GEE'''.... ''(gasps)''.....[-[[{{Understatement}} That's a lot of views]]."-]
** "I'm Ray William Johnson, and I approve this message!"
** "Fake and gay!"
*** "Falso y maricon!"
** In recent episodes, he maims the Google+ logo.
* TheCameo: None other than RobinWilliams in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj9nrYVqmPg&feature=feedu this video]].
* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: In the video Creepy Indian, Ray calls the guy an exorcist. An exorcist is the person who releases the demon from a host, not the person possessed by one. Also in a vein attempt of a ShoutOut to [[Film/TheExorcist the move of the same name]], he has the guy say "[[{{Poltergeist}} They're here!]]"
** Then again, given that [[MeanCharacterNiceActor he's acting like a bit of an ignorant douche on =3 in contrast to how he normally acts according to his vlog]], this was probably on purpose.
** He also called out TheWallStreetJournal for doing this about ''him'' in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kZ4xuAvfSg&feature=g-u-u&context=G297ba66FUAAAAAAADAA one of his videos.]]
* CuteKitten: Cat videos show up on the series [[strike: every so often]] on a regular basis. Ray [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] the Internet's apparent obsession with cat videos.
* {{Emoticon}}: [[CaptainObvious =3]]
* HilariousOuttakes: Some of the videos after the show proper have a minute or so of Ray messing up lines, with a whole bunch of {{Cluster F Bomb}}s.
* HypocriticalHumor: In ''The =3 Musical'', Ray asks "What kind of lame-ass person uses Autotune" while singing in Autotune himself.
* IncrediblyLamePun: So, so many. Enough to be a RunningGag.
* JerkAss: Ray is this in some videos.
* OneOfUs: Well, Ray does most of his videos in front of a wall plastered with pages from ''{{Comicbook/Watchmen}}''. That's kind of a giveaway.
* RefugeInAudacity: Lampshaded heavily.
* RunningGag: Several: YourMom, Ray's non-existent social/sexual life or lame jokes, [=PedoBear=], the {{Troll}} or any number of viral video-derived audacities, including something about 2 angry camels in a tiny car.
** [[InSovietRussiaTropeMocksYou Russian]] virals seem to be the most fun and unsafe-looking of late.
*** Gabriel Iglesias himself admitted he can't host an episode without a Russian video.
** Epic face, epic face, epic face, epic face, [[TheLonelyIsland JIZZ IN MY PANTS]]!
** He's also taken to assaulting Google+ when he says where you can leave your comments.
* SelfDeprecation: A part of his style which comes into play quite a lot.
* SoundEffectBleep / ThisTropeIsBleep: He tends not to curse in the videos, but does so in his personal vlog ([=BreakingNYC=]). He justified it in a vlog by saying he wants to keep the series kid-friendly.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vL56NP5d96Q This]] video, "Indian Action" has an uncensored f-bomb, perhaps a first for Ray?
** He leaves uncensored [[IncrediblyLamePun Fluorine bombs]] in "Thug Gumby" and "Broken Goat", as well as the word itself appearing on screen in "Jesus Dance".
* StayInTheKitchen: Some of the jokes he makes are blatantly sexist. He always apologizes though.
* ThisLoserIsYou: A character labelled "You" occasionally appears. "You" say a lot of very stupid things.
* UnexplainedRecovery: The Troll.
* YourMom: An old RunningGag of the series. Reportedly, having sex with someone's mother is the only cure for squirrel AIDS.
----
'''Your Favorite Martian provides examples of:'''
* ADayInTheLimelight: "Transphobic Techno" is one for [=DeeJay=]- no one else in the band makes an appearance.
* AffablyEvil: Exploited in ''Club Villain''. Puff is allowed into the titular club, and uses his politeness to [[spoiler: get himself laid.]]
* AndThatsTerrible / ButYouScrewOneGoat: In [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCgx8zM3woQ The Stereotypes Song]] in which he jokingly [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin sings about stereotypes]], he mentions Scotsmen humping sheep, and at the end he adds, "But seriously, don't hump any sheep."
* ArtEvolution: The video for ''Whip Yo Kids'' and the videos onward have much better animation and art than the previous music videos.
* AscendedExtra: Benatar went from being the band's silent guitarist to getting as much singing time as Puff himself, singing more than Puff in ''Complicated'' and ''Jupiter''. According to [[WordofGod Ray himself,]] Axel is expected to be singing at some point as well.
* BandToon: ''Your Favorite Martian: The Series'' is now being run on YouTube. The series is a parody of more traditional band toons, only with a lot more sexual jokes and NSFW language.
* BiggerIsBetter: ''My Balls'' is a song where Puff brags that his balls can win back his ex-girlfriend (the person he's singing to)
* BuxomIsBetter: The subject of ''Tig Ol' Bitties.''
* CallBack: ''Tig Ol' Bitties'' makes a reference to ''My Balls''. "Like my balls--real big!"
** And in ''Whip Yo Kids'', a call back ''even further'', to the very first song his earlier band, Fatty Spins, put on youtube [[hottip:*:This song was used in Ray's old show, Capitol Hill Gangsta, as well as for much of the early =3 episodes]] titled "Doin' Your Mom".:
* ChickMagnet: [=DeeJay=] (Fat black guy), bordering on KavorkaMan.
* BlindingBangs: The entire backup. Even [=DeeJay=] with his FunnyAfro. Although we see his eyes starting in ''Transphobic Techno''.
* ContinuityNod: In ''Grandma Got a Facebook'', all of the people that Puff's Grandma friends are from ''Club Villain'' and ''The Stereotypes Song''.
** Also Mr. Douchebag, who also shows up in ''Friend Zone''.
** In ''Robot Bar Fight'', the Terminator does a dance we first saw on Mr. Douchebag.
** In the remix for the Mike Posner song ''She Looks Like Sex'', among the ugly woman in the place is Oprah and a fat trucker from ''Epileptic Techno'' and the Wet-Dog-headed girl from ''Dookie Fresh''.
* DanBrowned: Scottish people are not really stereotyped for humping sheep.
* {{Deconstruction}}: Transphobic Techno seems to offer a suggestion to why club music repeats the same words over and over again.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Puff lets out his inner {{Eminem}} during the verses of "Alien," which is itself about bullying and isolation. Now, compare that to a song like "Booty Store..."
** "Text Me Back" is a pretty dark song, but just listen to it without watching the video to see how much darker it becomes.
* DemotedToExtra: [=DeeJay=] went from being the second singer behind Puff and actually having his own song to mixing beats while Benatar [[AscendedExtra took his place]].
* DidNotDoTheResearch: [[SonicTheHedgehog Dr Robotnik]] is not actually a robot.
** In Robotnik's case, he could be the [[ArchieSonic Archie Comics version]], who WAS a robot: Robo-Robotnik from a parallel Mobius who takes proper Robotnik's place and takes Eggman's form.
** Also from ''Robot Bar Fight'', [[VideoGame/MegaManX X]] is seen, yet he's just called VideoGame/MegaMan.
*** Recall that he is fully named Mega Man X. Ray probably [[TheyJustDidntCare didn't care]] and went with X because he looks older.
** Peach is not the princess in TheLegendOfZelda. Zelda is.
* DisneyAcidSequence: ''Orphan Tears''.
** One part in ''Transphobic Techno''.
* DirtyOldWoman: Puff's grandma, AKA [[NameMcAdjective Slutty McButtSex]], in "Grandma got a Facebook."
* DoubleSubversion: Puff may have made up the story of ''Robot Bar Fight'', but as the lights were turned off in the video, his eyes lit up.
* DroppedABridgetOnHim: The main premise of ''Transphobic Techno'', but it ends up being subverted.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: ChrisBrown is kicked out of a ''Villain's Club'', whose denizens include [[Film/FridayThe13th Jason]], [[HarryPotter Voldemort]] and Charles Manson.
* EstrogenBrigadeBait: Benatar and Axel. Benatar ''especially''.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Many of his songs are guilty of this.
* FantasticDrug: ''Orphan Tears''.
* Flanderization
* FinishingMove: Several in ''Fight to Win''.
* FreudianExcuse: In [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8pmCSItNDs TAKE OVER THE WORLD]] the nerd guy works in a crap job and gets mistreated.
* FriendZone: ''Friend Zone'', obviously.
* GargleBlaster: The titular ''Orphan Tears''.
* HollywoodTourettes: "BARF, PISS, ASS, ASS, BARF!"
* HomoeroticSubtext: ''The Unofficial Smithers Love Song''. Enough said. Less "subtext" than "text".
** We get a clear shot of [[{{StarWars}} R2-D2 and C-3PO]] kissing in ''Robot Bar Fight'', before they are interrupted by a gun-toting [[{{WALL-E}} Wall-E]]. [[ItMakesSenseInContext It's a long story]].
* HurricaneOfPuns: ''Bottles of Beer'' has named 29 different beer brands in the lyrics.
* HypocriticalHumor: In ''Fight to Win'', both Puff and guest rapper [=DeStorm=] claim that fighting games like MortalKombat don't make them violent. They then proceed to kick each other's asses over the last nacho.
* IKnowMortalKombat: The Basic Premise of ''Fight to Win''.
* ImpossibleHourglassFigure: [[HotMom The Mom]] from "Stalkin' Your Mom".
* InDaClub: Examples include "Club Villain," "Orphan Tears," "Transphobic Techno" and "Epileptic Techno".
** She Looks Like Sex and White Boy Wasted, to a lesser extent.
* {{Joisey}}: The subject of the song "Mr. Douchebag."
* MadnessMantra: "''[[{{Squick}} Bitch got a penis... Bitch got a penis...]] [[BrainBleach Bitch got a penis... Bitch got a penis...]]''"
* MoodDissonance: For no obvious reason, the girl in ''Tig Ol' Bitties'' smiles after she gets yelled at by Puff (who is referred to as YourFavoriteMartian in the song); she was faking sadness.
* MoodWhiplash: "Alien" is not a comedic song at all, it's an anti-bullying song.
** ''Friend Zone'' and ''Complicated'' are pretty straight love songs with very little comedy.
** ''Take Over the World'' is less comedic, more reminding you that there are greater opportunities out there for you.
** Hell, all but three songs since Friend Zone have been serious.
* MushroomSamba: ''Orphan Tears'' is a song describing the effect of the titluar drug on Puff, [=DeeJay=], and special guest Wax. Needless to say, it's extremely trippy.
* NationalStereotypes: ''The Stereotypes Song'' notes a lot of these.
* OddManOut: Every single member of the band has at least one thing that the other three do not.
** Puff is the only one who's eyes are visible
** [=DeeJay=] is [[TokenBlack the only black guy]] and also the only one who's [[BigBeautifulMan fat]]
** Axl is the only one with brown shoes instead of white...[[GeorgeCarlin these are my rules, I make 'em up]]
** Benetar is the only one with [[EveryoneLovesBlondes blond hair]] as opposed to brown and is also the only one who's [[BritishAccents British]] instead of American
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: ''Zombie Love'' proves (unintentionally) that zombies have emotions as well.
* PrecisionFStrike: Oprah's purpose when she appeared in ''Epileptic Techno''.
** In "Alien": "All a bully needs is a '''FUCKING''' EXCUSE!"
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: ''Mr. Douchebag''. Bonus points for it being in song.
* ShoutOut: To many well-known [[BigBad Big Bads]] in ''Club Villain''.
** To MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail in Tig Ol' Bitties at 1:54.
** And FamilyGuy at the end of Tig Ol' Bitties.
** [[{{Eminem}} "Stain on my shirt - mom's spaghetti"]] in Tig Ol' Bitties.
** Wax claims he was "feeling like [[WizardOfOz Dorothy]]" when he was spinning around in the black hole in ''Orphan Tears''.
** [[TheJetsons To]] [[WallE a]] [[{{Transformers}} bunch]] [[{{Robocop}} of]] [[{{Terminator}} robots]] [[VideoGame/MegaMan in]] ''Robot Bar Fight.''
** Maya Angelou of all people in ''Take Over the World''.
*** Not to mention the not-so-subtle reference to PinkyAndTheBrain.
* ShownTheirWork:
** The sole annotation in ''The Stereotypes Song'' says "Yes, the Scottish are known for humping sheep. Google it before you start arguing with me about it. :)"
** Referring to ''The Unofficial Smithers Love Song'': "Yes, that familiar progression you're hearing is Pachelbel's Canon in E. It's commonly used as a wedding song. Get it? :)"
* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Compared to a lot of their other work, ''Alien'' is [[{{Understatement}} a lot less funny]] and a lot more serious.
** Same goes for ''Friend Zone'' and ''Complicated''. Friend Zone has the occasional sight gag and one or two amusing lines, but ''Complicated'' has neither - both are songs about unrequited love.
** Same also goes for ''Take Over the World''. Like Friend Zone, it has one or two sight gags and amusing lines, but it's mainly about being stuck a job you hate and dreaming about chasing your own goals.
* TheSomethingSong: The Stereotype Song
* StockFootage: With many of YFM newer music videos, the chorus, as well as the actions of [=DeeJay=], Axel, and Benatar rely on this.
** Was subverted in "Alien" until the animations appear again in "White Boy Wasted"...
* StuffyOldSongsAboutTheButtocks: ''Booty Store'', natch.
* StylisticSuck: It's actually ''intentional'' that the lyrics of ''Bitch Got a Penis'' repeat over and over and over and over and ''[[HypocriticalHumor over and over and over and]]''...
* TakeOverTheWorld: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysontheTin TAKE OVER THE]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8pmCSItNDs WORLD]]
* TakeThat: To ChrisBrown in ''Club Villain''.
** And a lot of the major world countries in ''The Stereotypes Song'', though he was just joking.
* UnusualEuphemism: "Partying" for "having sex"
* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous: Faking big breasts?! Unforgivable! (Okay, for some guys this is the most evil thing ever, but ''still''...)
----
'''Your Favorite Martian: The Series Provides Examples of:'''
* AIIsACrapshoot: What happens to G.I.A in "G.I.A/G.P.S"
* ClusterFBomb: It's not an episode of YFMTS without it.
* {{Joisey}}: The setting of Episode 1 Brock's hometown.
* LoonyFan: Wilton, from episode #5 of YFMTS. (Wilton is the guy from Nerd Rage)
* ShoutOut: Being a show based off of Ray's band, it's gonna have these:
** Brock, who is the title character in "Mr. Douchebag", appears in "Douchebagged."
** [[NameMcAdjective Slutty McButtsex]] appears in the episodes "Die for Rock and Roll" and "G.I.A/G.P.S"
** Tig, the girl from "Tig Ol' Bitties", appears with her niece Tara in "Bad Seed".
*** She later appears in Puff's OBE in "ISO Tank" while he's trying to come up with a song about her. The end result? None other than "Tig Ol' Bitties"
** Wilton, the nerd from "Nerd Rage", appears in "#1 Fan"
* SpoiledBrat: Tara from episode #4 of YFMTS. Enough said.
* OppositeSexClone: [=DeeJay=] and [=DeeJane=] (YFMTS Episode #9). To describe [=DeeJane=], she's [=DeeJay=] as a girl.
* YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry: YFMTS Episode #8 "ROAD RAGE" lampshades that Puff has major anger issues. A couple of "Yo Grandma" jokes, a shrinkage of his hoodie and a simple squirrel dance gets him flared up. I don't blame him over having to DRESS UP as a squirrel, though.

[[caption-width-right:233:You be trollin'!]]
You know what time it is forum, it's time for the Comment Question of the day. So I want you to describe Equals Three here. Leave your interesting or creative responses in the comments section below.
''[[http://www.youtube.com/user/RayWilliamJohnson Equals Three]]'' (=3) is a YouTube series hosted by Ray William Johnson, who reviews viral videos he finds or are sent to him. Three videos are shown and a question submitted via video is posed for the commenters to respond to in the comments section. New videos are posted every Tuesday and Friday. Currently the [[http://www.youtube.com/members?s=ms&t=a&g=0 most subscribed channel]] on YouTube.
He also releases songs and videos under the account name [[http://www.youtube.com/user/Yourfavoritemartian Your Favorite Martian]].
It has a Spin-Off in Spanish: [[http://www.youtube.com/user/IgualATres Igual a tres]], hosted by Pedro Flores.
Not to be confused with [[CatSmile :3]].
----
'''This series provides examples of:'''
* ActingForTwo: A second character known only as [[{{Troll}} the Troll]] shows up sometimes...trolling.
* AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent: Other guys show up doing the show sometimes, with little actual introduction. So far we've seen [=meekakitty=], [=KassemG=], GarfunkelAndOates, [[JapaneseRanguage Bobby Lee]], [[YogiBear TJ Miller]], and friggin' ''GabrielIglesias''.
* AutoTune: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBB7sYeCPoE This]] episode.
* ButtMonkey: Recently, the Google+ logo.
* CatchPhrase: ''I'm just sayin'.''
** "What's happenin', forum?"
** "Leave your interesting or creative responses in the comments section *deep bass/squeaky voice/other sound effect* below."
** "Gee! Zus!"
*** This becomes a SubvertedCatchPhrase when he says, "'''GEE'''.... ''(gasps)''.....[-[[{{Understatement}} That's a lot of views]]."-]
** "I'm Ray William Johnson, and I approve this message!"
** "Fake and gay!"
*** "Falso y maricon!"
** In recent episodes, he maims the Google+ logo.
* TheCameo: None other than RobinWilliams in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj9nrYVqmPg&feature=feedu this video]].
* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: In the video Creepy Indian, Ray calls the guy an exorcist. An exorcist is the person who releases the demon from a host, not the person possessed by one. Also in a vein attempt of a ShoutOut to [[Film/TheExorcist the move of the same name]], he has the guy say "[[{{Poltergeist}} They're here!]]"
** Then again, given that [[MeanCharacterNiceActor he's acting like a bit of an ignorant douche on =3 in contrast to how he normally acts according to his vlog]], this was probably on purpose.
** He also called out TheWallStreetJournal for doing this about ''him'' in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kZ4xuAvfSg&feature=g-u-u&context=G297ba66FUAAAAAAADAA one of his videos.]]
* CuteKitten: Cat videos show up on the series [[strike: every so often]] on a regular basis. Ray [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] the Internet's apparent obsession with cat videos.
* {{Emoticon}}: [[CaptainObvious =3]]
* HilariousOuttakes: Some of the videos after the show proper have a minute or so of Ray messing up lines, with a whole bunch of {{Cluster F Bomb}}s.
* HypocriticalHumor: In ''The =3 Musical'', Ray asks "What kind of lame-ass person uses Autotune" while singing in Autotune himself.
* IncrediblyLamePun: So, so many. Enough to be a RunningGag.
* JerkAss: Ray is this in some videos.
* OneOfUs: Well, Ray does most of his videos in front of a wall plastered with pages from ''{{Comicbook/Watchmen}}''. That's kind of a giveaway.
* RefugeInAudacity: Lampshaded heavily.
* RunningGag: Several: YourMom, Ray's non-existent social/sexual life or lame jokes, [=PedoBear=], the {{Troll}} or any number of viral video-derived audacities, including something about 2 angry camels in a tiny car.
** [[InSovietRussiaTropeMocksYou Russian]] virals seem to be the most fun and unsafe-looking of late.
*** Gabriel Iglesias himself admitted he can't host an episode without a Russian video.
** Epic face, epic face, epic face, epic face, [[TheLonelyIsland JIZZ IN MY PANTS]]!
** He's also taken to assaulting Google+ when he says where you can leave your comments.
* SelfDeprecation: A part of his style which comes into play quite a lot.
* SoundEffectBleep / ThisTropeIsBleep: He tends not to curse in the videos, but does so in his personal vlog ([=BreakingNYC=]). He justified it in a vlog by saying he wants to keep the series kid-friendly.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vL56NP5d96Q This]] video, "Indian Action" has an uncensored f-bomb, perhaps a first for Ray?
** He leaves uncensored [[IncrediblyLamePun Fluorine bombs]] in "Thug Gumby" and "Broken Goat", as well as the word itself appearing on screen in "Jesus Dance".
* StayInTheKitchen: Some of the jokes he makes are blatantly sexist. He always apologizes though.
* ThisLoserIsYou: A character labelled "You" occasionally appears. "You" say a lot of very stupid things.
* UnexplainedRecovery: The Troll.
* YourMom: An old RunningGag of the series. Reportedly, having sex with someone's mother is the only cure for squirrel AIDS.
----
'''Your Favorite Martian provides examples of:'''
* ADayInTheLimelight: "Transphobic Techno" is one for [=DeeJay=]- no one else in the band makes an appearance.
* AffablyEvil: Exploited in ''Club Villain''. Puff is allowed into the titular club, and uses his politeness to [[spoiler: get himself laid.]]
* AndThatsTerrible / ButYouScrewOneGoat: In [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCgx8zM3woQ The Stereotypes Song]] in which he jokingly [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin sings about stereotypes]], he mentions Scotsmen humping sheep, and at the end he adds, "But seriously, don't hump any sheep."
* ArtEvolution: The video for ''Whip Yo Kids'' and the videos onward have much better animation and art than the previous music videos.
* AscendedExtra: Benatar went from being the band's silent guitarist to getting as much singing time as Puff himself, singing more than Puff in ''Complicated'' and ''Jupiter''. According to [[WordofGod Ray himself,]] Axel is expected to be singing at some point as well.
* BandToon: ''Your Favorite Martian: The Series'' is now being run on YouTube. The series is a parody of more traditional band toons, only with a lot more sexual jokes and NSFW language.
* BiggerIsBetter: ''My Balls'' is a song where Puff brags that his balls can win back his ex-girlfriend (the person he's singing to)
* BuxomIsBetter: The subject of ''Tig Ol' Bitties.''
* CallBack: ''Tig Ol' Bitties'' makes a reference to ''My Balls''. "Like my balls--real big!"
** And in ''Whip Yo Kids'', a call back ''even further'', to the very first song his earlier band, Fatty Spins, put on youtube [[hottip:*:This song was used in Ray's old show, Capitol Hill Gangsta, as well as for much of the early =3 episodes]] titled "Doin' Your Mom".:
* ChickMagnet: [=DeeJay=] (Fat black guy), bordering on KavorkaMan.
* BlindingBangs: The entire backup. Even [=DeeJay=] with his FunnyAfro. Although we see his eyes starting in ''Transphobic Techno''.
* ContinuityNod: In ''Grandma Got a Facebook'', all of the people that Puff's Grandma friends are from ''Club Villain'' and ''The Stereotypes Song''.
** Also Mr. Douchebag, who also shows up in ''Friend Zone''.
** In ''Robot Bar Fight'', the Terminator does a dance we first saw on Mr. Douchebag.
** In the remix for the Mike Posner song ''She Looks Like Sex'', among the ugly woman in the place is Oprah and a fat trucker from ''Epileptic Techno'' and the Wet-Dog-headed girl from ''Dookie Fresh''.
* DanBrowned: Scottish people are not really stereotyped for humping sheep.
* {{Deconstruction}}: Transphobic Techno seems to offer a suggestion to why club music repeats the same words over and over again.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Puff lets out his inner {{Eminem}} during the verses of "Alien," which is itself about bullying and isolation. Now, compare that to a song like "Booty Store..."
** "Text Me Back" is a pretty dark song, but just listen to it without watching the video to see how much darker it becomes.
* DemotedToExtra: [=DeeJay=] went from being the second singer behind Puff and actually having his own song to mixing beats while Benatar [[AscendedExtra took his place]].
* DidNotDoTheResearch: [[SonicTheHedgehog Dr Robotnik]] is not actually a robot.
** In Robotnik's case, he could be the [[ArchieSonic Archie Comics version]], who WAS a robot: Robo-Robotnik from a parallel Mobius who takes proper Robotnik's place and takes Eggman's form.
** Also from ''Robot Bar Fight'', [[VideoGame/MegaManX X]] is seen, yet he's just called VideoGame/MegaMan.
*** Recall that he is fully named Mega Man X. Ray probably [[TheyJustDidntCare didn't care]] and went with X because he looks older.
** Peach is not the princess in TheLegendOfZelda. Zelda is.
* DisneyAcidSequence: ''Orphan Tears''.
** One part in ''Transphobic Techno''.
* DirtyOldWoman: Puff's grandma, AKA [[NameMcAdjective Slutty McButtSex]], in "Grandma got a Facebook."
* DoubleSubversion: Puff may have made up the story of ''Robot Bar Fight'', but as the lights were turned off in the video, his eyes lit up.
* DroppedABridgetOnHim: The main premise of ''Transphobic Techno'', but it ends up being subverted.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: ChrisBrown is kicked out of a ''Villain's Club'', whose denizens include [[Film/FridayThe13th Jason]], [[HarryPotter Voldemort]] and Charles Manson.
* EstrogenBrigadeBait: Benatar and Axel. Benatar ''especially''.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Many of his songs are guilty of this.
* FantasticDrug: ''Orphan Tears''.
* Flanderization
* FinishingMove: Several in ''Fight to Win''.
* FreudianExcuse: In [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8pmCSItNDs TAKE OVER THE WORLD]] the nerd guy works in a crap job and gets mistreated.
* FriendZone: ''Friend Zone'', obviously.
* GargleBlaster: The titular ''Orphan Tears''.
* HollywoodTourettes: "BARF, PISS, ASS, ASS, BARF!"
* HomoeroticSubtext: ''The Unofficial Smithers Love Song''. Enough said. Less "subtext" than "text".
** We get a clear shot of [[{{StarWars}} R2-D2 and C-3PO]] kissing in ''Robot Bar Fight'', before they are interrupted by a gun-toting [[{{WALL-E}} Wall-E]]. [[ItMakesSenseInContext It's a long story]].
* HurricaneOfPuns: ''Bottles of Beer'' has named 29 different beer brands in the lyrics.
* HypocriticalHumor: In ''Fight to Win'', both Puff and guest rapper [=DeStorm=] claim that fighting games like MortalKombat don't make them violent. They then proceed to kick each other's asses over the last nacho.
* IKnowMortalKombat: The Basic Premise of ''Fight to Win''.
* ImpossibleHourglassFigure: [[HotMom The Mom]] from "Stalkin' Your Mom".
* InDaClub: Examples include "Club Villain," "Orphan Tears," "Transphobic Techno" and "Epileptic Techno".
** She Looks Like Sex and White Boy Wasted, to a lesser extent.
* {{Joisey}}: The subject of the song "Mr. Douchebag."
* MadnessMantra: "''[[{{Squick}} Bitch got a penis... Bitch got a penis...]] [[BrainBleach Bitch got a penis... Bitch got a penis...]]''"
* MoodDissonance: For no obvious reason, the girl in ''Tig Ol' Bitties'' smiles after she gets yelled at by Puff (who is referred to as YourFavoriteMartian in the song); she was faking sadness.
* MoodWhiplash: "Alien" is not a comedic song at all, it's an anti-bullying song.
** ''Friend Zone'' and ''Complicated'' are pretty straight love songs with very little comedy.
** ''Take Over the World'' is less comedic, more reminding you that there are greater opportunities out there for you.
** Hell, all but three songs since Friend Zone have been serious.
* MushroomSamba: ''Orphan Tears'' is a song describing the effect of the titluar drug on Puff, [=DeeJay=], and special guest Wax. Needless to say, it's extremely trippy.
* NationalStereotypes: ''The Stereotypes Song'' notes a lot of these.
* OddManOut: Every single member of the band has at least one thing that the other three do not.
** Puff is the only one who's eyes are visible
** [=DeeJay=] is [[TokenBlack the only black guy]] and also the only one who's [[BigBeautifulMan fat]]
** Axl is the only one with brown shoes instead of white...[[GeorgeCarlin these are my rules, I make 'em up]]
** Benetar is the only one with [[EveryoneLovesBlondes blond hair]] as opposed to brown and is also the only one who's [[BritishAccents British]] instead of American
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: ''Zombie Love'' proves (unintentionally) that zombies have emotions as well.
* PrecisionFStrike: Oprah's purpose when she appeared in ''Epileptic Techno''.
** In "Alien": "All a bully needs is a '''FUCKING''' EXCUSE!"
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: ''Mr. Douchebag''. Bonus points for it being in song.
* ShoutOut: To many well-known [[BigBad Big Bads]] in ''Club Villain''.
** To MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail in Tig Ol' Bitties at 1:54.
** And FamilyGuy at the end of Tig Ol' Bitties.
** [[{{Eminem}} "Stain on my shirt - mom's spaghetti"]] in Tig Ol' Bitties.
** Wax claims he was "feeling like [[WizardOfOz Dorothy]]" when he was spinning around in the black hole in ''Orphan Tears''.
** [[TheJetsons To]] [[WallE a]] [[{{Transformers}} bunch]] [[{{Robocop}} of]] [[{{Terminator}} robots]] [[VideoGame/MegaMan in]] ''Robot Bar Fight.''
** Maya Angelou of all people in ''Take Over the World''.
*** Not to mention the not-so-subtle reference to PinkyAndTheBrain.
* ShownTheirWork:
** The sole annotation in ''The Stereotypes Song'' says "Yes, the Scottish are known for humping sheep. Google it before you start arguing with me about it. :)"

* StylisticSuck: It's actually ''intentional'' that the lyrics of ''Bitch Got a Penis'' repeat over and over and over and over and ''[[HypocriticalHumor over and over and over and]]''...
* TakeOverTheWorld: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysontheTin TAKE OVER THE]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8pmCSItNDs WORLD]]
* TakeThat: To ChrisBrown in ''Club Villain''.
** And a lot of the major world countries in ''The Stereotypes Song'', though he was just joking.
* UnusualEuphemism: "Partying" for "having sex"
* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous: Faking big breasts?! Unforgivable! (Okay, for some guys this is the most evil thing ever, but ''still''...)
