* DiscreditedMeme: The infamous "Red robe meme [[labelnote:Explanation '''(NSFW)''']]A picture of Trent floating around of him wearing nothing but a red robe, lifting it up to his leg and a bit of his pubic hair. Essentially the NIN fandom's equivalent to goatse.cx.[[/labelnote]]" has come under fire in the 2020s, as posting NSFW images of people without their consent receives a higher level of scrutiny than it did in previous years, and the fact that Trent (who had relapsed around the time the photo was taken) appears to be either drunk or on drugs in the picture itself. Former guitarist Richard Patrick commented on an Instagram repost of the photo to say that he's pretty sure that Trent himself wouldn't appreciated seeing the photo again.
