| 9 | Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, better known online as [[https://www.youtube.com/pewdiepie PewDiePie]], born October 24, 1989, is a UsefulNotes/{{Swed|en}}ish Platform/{{YouTube}}r known for his gaming content and comedic formatted videos. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | Felix owns one of the most subscribed-to and viewed channels on [=YouTube=], with over 111 million subscribers and over 28 billion views across his videos. He was the owner of the single most subscribed-to independent[[note]]Important distinction; he was surpassed by the Indian corporation Creator/TSeries in April 2019[[/note]] channel on [=YouTube=] from August 2013 to November 2022, when he was surpassed by WebVideo/MrBeast, and his channel was also the most viewed on the platform from December 2014 to February 2017. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | After creating his channel in 2010, Felix gained a following for his [[LetsPlay Let's Plays]], mainly of horror games, with cited factors for his videos' appeal including his [[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl reactions]], [[FunnySchizophrenia recurring]] [[Characters/PewDiePie characters]], {{Running Gag}}s (namely a [[BerserkButton hatred of barrels]]), [[SirSwearsALot colorful language]], [[LargeHam exceptional hamminess]], and [[SurrealHumor general bizarre sense of humor]]. His [=YouTube=] career became his main life venture after dropping out of a university business degree due to personal dislike of school[[note]]''not'' solely to start his [=YouTube=] career, [[CowboyBeBopAtHisComputer as has been commonly reported]] and which he once stated would have been a "fucking stupid" idea[[/note]], although he has stated since that he did it first and foremost out of love for making videos, as there were no prominent gaming [=YouTubers=] or means to make money from the website when he started. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Felix's channel grew substantially in the following years, becoming one of the fastest-growing on [=YouTube=] in 2012 and 2013 before eventually overtaking WebVideo/{{Smosh}} as the most-subscribed channel in August of the latter year. Between 2014 and 2017, he diversified his content to include vlogs, sketches, music videos and recurring series. Some of the most popular of these series include ''Pew News''[[note]]in which a dizzying number of characters [[InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals all played]] [[ActingForTwo by Felix]] discuss [=YouTube=] news (although Felix will also rather conspicuously gives his own serious opinions as well); and that's not even getting into the [[MythArc wider story]][[/note]], ''Meme Review''[[note]]where Felix comments on one or several new memes[[/note]], and ''LWIAY''[[note]]short for ''Last Week I Asked You''; a shameless {{expy}} of the WebVideo/{{Jacksfilms}} series ''Yesterday I Asked You'' (''YIAY'') where Felix looks at fan-submitted memes on his [[http://reddit.com/r/pewdiepiesubmissions subreddit]][[/note]]. Towards the end of the 2010s and entering the 2020s, Felix would become more reserved online and eventually consider himself semi-retired, only uploading videos for fun. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Saying that Felix is a prominent figure on not just [=YouTube=] but the Internet -- especially for outsiders and media personalities looking in -- is an understatement. His prominence has given him the ability to ColbertBump whatever he chooses to give exposure to, especially if it's obscure, but it has [[BlessedWithSuck also]] made him one of the most polarizing [=YouTubers=] on the platform for a variety of reasons, especially following a number of serious controversies in the late 2010s. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | Felix has also been known to collaborate with the higher-ups of his networks. In late 2015, following the announcement of [=YouTube=] Red[[note]]now [=YouTube=] Premium[[/note]], a paid subscription service for the site, news broke of Felix starring in a series named ''Scare [=PewDiePie=]'', made by the creator and executive producers of ''Series/TheWalkingDead2010'' and revolving around him going through real-life places designed after the horror games he became famous for playing. The first season of the show was released from February to April of 2016, the same year that Felix also initiated his own personal [=YouTube=] network under Maker Studios named Revelmode. Both his network and plans to release a second season of ''Scare [=PewDiePie=]''[[note]][[NewSeasonNewName now called]] ''Scare [=PewDiePie=]: Multiplayer'', co-starring WebVideo/{{Jacksepticeye}}, and slated to premiere in March 2017[[/note]] were shut down following a particularly nasty controversy. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | [[HeAlsoDid Felix has also]] collaborated with studio Outerminds to produce the games ''VideoGame/PewDiePieLegendOfTheBrofist'', ''[=PewDiePie=]'s Tuber Simulator'', and ''[[VideoGame/PewDiePiesPixelings PewDiePie's Pixelings]]'', alongside writing a de-motivational self-help parody book titled ''This Book Loves You'' and raising over one million dollars for multiple charities with the help of his fans. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | His Italian wife, Marzia Kjellberg (née Bisognin), a since-retired creator in the [=YouTube=] beauty community, has her own page [[WebVideo/CutiePieMarzia here]]. The two began dating in 2011, married on August 19, 2019, and currently live in Japan with their dogs Edgar and Momo. Their first child, a son named Björn, was born on July 11, 2023. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | He has accounts on [[https://www.facebook.com/PewDiePie Facebook]] and [[https://www.instagram.com/pewdiepie Instagram]]. |

| 189 | ---- |
| 190 | !!His videos include instances of: |
| 191 | |
| 192 | [[folder:A-G]] |
| 193 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: Pewds is certain that the ghost from the ventilation shaft in ''[[VideoGame/{{Exmortis}} Exmortis 2]]'' wanted to make out with him. |
| 194 | ** Jennifer is an immobile one. |
| 195 | * AccidentalAimingSkills: How he once managed to chop off the head of a man with one swipe of an axe while flying out of his chair in fright. |
| 196 | * AchievementsInIgnorance: More then once has managed to win a difficult section by merely doing a stupid thing, that ended up being both smart, and crazy. Notably in his ''VideoGame/{{Outlast}}'' videos he accidentally exited a locker while a enemy was right in front of it with his back turned. Pewdie quickly hid in the one next to it, only for the enemy to check the locker he was originally in. |
| 197 | * AerithAndBob: His Mooks in ''VideoGame/{{Pulse}}'': Jennifer, Lisa, Marcus, Annabelle... then Bengt and Fuckface. |
| 198 | * AlasPoorScrappy: Happened in-universe with [[spoiler: Duck]] in the ''Walking Dead''. Despite [[spoiler: constantly hating on the character and showing visible disappointment when he wasn't killed on two occasions, Pewdie made it clear that he didn't want to shoot the infected Duck, showing surprise that he wasn't happy to see the kid die.]] |
| 199 | -->[[spoiler: '''Pewds''': I'll let you be Robin next time. I'll let you be Robin.]] |
| 200 | * AllLoveIsUnrequited: Neither Jennifer or Piggeh get the love they want from Pewdie, no matter how often they try. |
| 201 | * AllMenArePerverts: Stephano once slept with a Bro's girlfriend, Pewdie admires the asses of the grunts as well as the "assets" of any female he comes across, and Piggeh often tries to seduce Pew. |
| 202 | * AmusingInjuries: His tendency to kick his table when he gets scared. Most notably when reading the story of the Bong Cheong Dong ghost. |
| 203 | * {{Angrish}}: Is literally reduced to a mix of this and LaughingMad when playing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0oYiCBoyfk Unfair Mario]]. |
| 204 | * ArentYouGoingToRavishMe: Piggeh got stuck with his head in a chest twice, and hoped that Pewdie would take advantage of the situation. He was disappointed. |
| 205 | * AnimalMotif: Felix seems to be associated with ducks quite a lot. |
| 206 | * ArcSymbol: The brofist. |
| 207 | * ArcWords: He's been saying "100%" a lot as of late. |
| 208 | * ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: In his ''Trials Evolution'' video, he begins to wonder what the point of some things are, gradually escalating until he begins to question the meaning of life...and then he questions the meaning of vegetables, since they taste like shit. |
| 209 | * ArtifactTitle: He frequently lampshades how much he doesn't release ''Fridays with [=PewDiePie=]'' videos on actual Fridays. |
| 210 | * AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: |
| 211 | ** His little rhyme, while being Swedish in origin, means absolutely nothing. [[http://www.mamalisa.com/?t=es&p=577&c=86 It's basically a nonsensical children's rhyme for a counting game]]. |
| 212 | ** There's also [[PretentiousPronunciation Pipé]] the ambiguously French pipe in his ''Condemned'' LP. |
| 213 | * AscendedFanboy: Falcon Lover. One of his comments [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZCS9trzaCw was noticed by Pewdie]], and he later turned into a fairly important meme of his. |
| 214 | ** His wife, [=CutiePie=] AKA Marzia, was originally just a fan he would talk to over Facebook. |
| 215 | * AsideGlance: He does these when completely dumbfounded. |
| 216 | * AtomicFBomb: |
| 217 | ** In episode 27 of his ''VideoGame/{{Calling}}'' playthrough, after a botched attempt to teleport to the basement using Hina's cell phone. |
| 218 | ---> "AHH! NO! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to do it! Please don't kill me! NO, NO, NO! AH, [[OohMeAccentsSlipping NEJ, NEJ!]] AHH, NO! [[BigNo NOOOOOOOOOO!]] I DIDN'T SAAAAAVE! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!" |
| 219 | ** Many of them in his ''VideoGame/TheImpossibleQuiz'' playthrough. A very notable one is on question 98, when he is asked to re-input the "blue, red, blue, yellow" code, only to get a game over right when he was going to input "yellow". |
| 220 | * AudienceParticipation: [=Pewdiepie=] loves interacting with fans and sometimes asks the viewers what he should do next in games that give him choices. During his ''Dark Souls'' playthrough he even asked fans in the comments for hints or tips to help him progress through the NintendoHard game. |
| 221 | * AxCrazy: When the game he plays allows him to be insane(r), he will try it out. Taken literally with his ''Condemned'' LP and the fire axe. |
| 222 | -->'''[[Film/TheShining HEEEEERE'S PEEEEEWDIIIIIE!]]''' |
| 223 | * BadSanta: A really sadistic Santa in ''VideoGame/HappyWheels''. |
| 224 | -->'''Run you dirty peasants/little shits!''' |
| 225 | * BagOfHolding: The new [=PewDiePie=] backpack, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl3fVUzXAj4 if Pewdie is to be believed.]] |
| 226 | ** In the video, the backpack contained graphic novel, a guitar, a little [[VideoGame/DarkSouls Smough]] statue, a skateboard, Maya, a [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime Jake the Dog]] hat, and a pair of glasses. |
| 227 | * {{Beat}}: "[=PewDiePie=] Processing Mode" |
| 228 | * BerserkButton: |
| 229 | ** The mere sight of '''BARRELS!''' |
| 230 | ** In his {{walkthrough}} of ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale'', he becomes very attached to and protective of Clementine, the little girl the player character takes in. Her being in danger often gets always gets a spazzy scream out of Pewds. |
| 231 | *** He also gets very attached to Ellie from ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs''. |
| 232 | ** You can make fun of his hair all you want, but do ''not'' make fun of his hare. He'll fucking stab a bitch. |
| 233 | ** Pewds throws [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26qVo4kNMSU an epic fit]] after seeing that he lost over 600,000 subscribers due to Platform/YouTube's deletion bug. It ends with him flushing his Diamond Play-button award down the toilet. |
| 234 | * BigBrotherInstinct: For [[VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale Clementine]] and [[VideoGame/TheLastOfUs Ellie]] most obviously, but also for [[VideoGame/BeyondTwoSouls Jodie]]. This is most glaring when Jodie has her shower scene and rather than eating the eye candy, [[IgnoreTheFanservice he comments on her drying method]]. |
| 235 | * BigNo: Sometimes even in Swedish. |
| 236 | ** Happened while playing "Limbo", when he thought in the end that [[spoiler:he had gone to where he started from and thought he'd have to do it all again. Luckily, he didn't]]. |
| 237 | ** Occurs in "Ikenie No Yoru: Night of the Sacrifice", when [[spoiler: the yellow character which Pewds named Stephanie (because she resembles Stephano) jumps off a cliff, killing herself]]. Pewds is heartbroken at this. |
| 238 | ** He lets out a very prolonged one in ''VideoGame/CorpseParty'' when he discovers that [[spoiler:Mayu has been smashed against the wall and turned into a shapeless pile of gibs.]] |
| 239 | ** He does one at the end of "Pizza Delivery". |
| 240 | --->'''Pewdie''': [[ItMakesSenseInContext I was a pizza all along!]] NOOOOOOOOOOOOO-- |
| 241 | --->(THANKS FOR WATCHING!) |
| 242 | --->'''Pewdie''': [[OverlyLongGag --OOOOOOOO!]] Actually, that's a good thing. |
| 243 | ** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLotqzeL9xY his video]] of ''VideoGame/IAmBread'' (he's playing as a cracker), he spends a lot of time in the start struggling to locate the cheese. When he finally does (after struggling to get on the table), he finds ''another'' challenge in that the cheese is under a lid that he must remove. When he finally does remove the lid, the cracker he's playing as breaks apart, getting him an F. He lets out of one these that is so long it starts breaking up like a glitch. |
| 244 | ** In his ''Can Your Pet?'' video when he selects the exercise bike and [[spoiler:watches his chick Stephano getting shredded up between two sawblades.]] |
| 245 | ** The ending of "EXPLODING NIPPLES", where [[spoiler:Pewdie hits #1 on the leaderboard of his ''Agar.io'' server, only to be promptly eaten.]] |
| 246 | ** A Swedish variant in his ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7rC64-Rz6k Cat Mario 3]]'' video when he decides not to trust a purple pipe and jumps onto the floor next to it, which then collapses. |
| 247 | * BigWordShout: As a general rule, [[LargeHam most of the things that come]] [[NoIndoorVoice out of Pewdie's mouth are shouted.]] However, he was prone to shouting "STEPHANOOO!" and "PIGGEEH!" especially loud almost every time he encountered them in earlier playthroughs. His most well known shout, however, has to be '''BARRELS!'''. |
| 248 | ** "Holy shit! I can't fap! I CAN'T FAP! I CAN'T FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!" |
| 249 | * BigYes: |
| 250 | ** He dropped many of these during the ''VideoGame/AoOni'' playthrough whenever he managed to escape from the titular Oni. |
| 251 | ** Subverted at one point in the same walkthrough, when he's hidden behind a chair and thinks that the Oni has disappeared. He raises his arms up and begins to shout "YES", only for another one to ''blast through the closet'' and start the chase again. |
| 252 | --->'''Pewdie''': Da FUCK, Man? Da FUCK? |
| 253 | * BilingualBonus: |
| 254 | ** The Italian spoken at the menuscreen in the playthrough of ''VideoGame/AfraidOfMonsters''. Pewdie didn't know what was said either. |
| 255 | ** Anytime he finds Martin or a POLISBIL[[note]]police car[[/note]], he will speak Swedish. |
| 256 | ** Sometimes he curses in Italian, like in the first episode of the Unfair Mario playthrough and in his Get On Top video, where he said "Vaffanculo" ("fuck you") a few times, and often curses in Swedish when exasperated. |
| 257 | ** He has a habit of cursing in Swedish. |
| 258 | ** "Felix", "arvid", and "ulf" (his first name and two middle names) mean "happy", "forest", and "wolf", respectively. |
| 259 | * BittersweetEnding: His ''VideoGame/Journey2012'' playthrough. Part four (the penultimate episode) has a jarring DownerEnding when [[spoiler:Pewdie's accomplice Bengt freezes to death on the mountain]], but part five concludes the series with bucketfuls of SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel, and Pewdie [[spoiler:manages to complete the game for Bengt.]] |
| 260 | * BlackComedy: He tends to lapse into this at frequent intervals. |
| 261 | * BlackComedyRape: Infamous for frequently joking about it in his pre-WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}} videos. The parody in question shows how often Felix made jokes along these lines (in their 7.5 minute video montage, he said it at least ''twenty times'', the first instance is the second word uttered), which accounts for [[DudeNotFunny the outcry against]] [[VulgarHumor rape jokes]] [[CharacterDevelopment being strong enough that he stopped making them entirely]]. |
| 262 | * BlatantLies: During his playthrough of ''[[PlatformHell Cat Mario 3]]'', Pewds promises not to swear after doing so quite a bit for the first half of the video. After [[SanitySlippage 15 deaths in a very short amount of time]], he predictably snaps and lets loose a lengthy ClusterFBomb. |
| 263 | ** Then there's this gem: |
| 264 | --->'''Marzia:''' Felix? |
| 265 | --->'''Pewdie:''' Yeah? |
| 266 | --->'''Marzia:''' Are you using my high heels? |
| 267 | --->'''Pewdie:''' ...no. [beat] |
| 268 | * BlessedWithSuck: Felix has admitted to sometimes disliking his status as the owner of the biggest YT channel (mainly from all of the attention that it brings). He stated that he would at times wish that he had a smaller channel so he could have more creative freedom, and has genuinely considered deleting his channel and starting from scratch, backing down only at the thought of the intense repercussions it would have with his company ties. |
| 269 | * BodyHorror: Too many instances to count, whether it be thumbnails or in-game. |
| 270 | * BookEnds: His 2015 New York vlog starts with him pulling the camera from his mouth, and ends with him pulling the camera into his mouth. The same sound effect is used for both instances. |
| 271 | * BreadEggsMilkSquick: |
| 272 | ** In one of his own custom mods. |
| 273 | ---> "You wake up with a pounding head, a slight pain in your neck and a swollen penis." |
| 274 | ** Letting Piggeh talk for too long causes this. |
| 275 | ** His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG9_Cs0wbN0 response]] to [[WebVideo/{{danisnotonfire}} Dan]] and [[WebVideo/AmazingPhil Phil]]'s 7 second challenge app, which has him naming three things that would ruin a wedding. |
| 276 | --->"Too much alcohol, diapers, and... dead babies." |
| 277 | * BrokenTears: |
| 278 | ** At the end of the first part of his ''VideoGame/DarkSoulsII'' LP. |
| 279 | ** At the end of the ''VideoGame/LunaGame'' video, where he gets caught off-guard by a ''huge'' scare at the very end while trying to do the outro. |
| 280 | * BullyingADragon: He made several commentary videos and diss tracks targeting the professional corporation T-Series, where he throws insults at the company and accuses them of several scandelous activities. Whether or not he was joking, T-Series still responds by banning his diss tracks throughout all of India. |
| 281 | * BumblingDad: Exaggerated with Pewdie's voice over. |
| 282 | -->'''Son:''' Dad, I lost my arm!\ |
| 283 | '''Dad:''' I DON'T CARE! |
| 284 | * BuxomBeautyStandard: Rebecca from ''Nosferatu'' strongly motivated him to play the game. |
| 285 | * CallBack: In his ''VideoGame/{{Outlast}}'' LP, Pewdie comes across a wall of rocks that are blocking his path. He then says "Jennifer has fucked us." When he finds a giant boulder in ''VideoGame/GoatSimulator'', guess what he calls it? |
| 286 | * CampStraight: Despite his PrettyBoy persona, going to the extents of crossdressing at times, he is straight and has a wife. |
| 287 | * CartwrightCurse: Pewds suffers this in his ''Minecraft'' Let's Play. Throughout the series Pewds has gained many pets which he has loved greatly and taken with him on his adventures, but ''Minecraft'' can be very dangerous if you're not careful and animals in particular tend to be fairly fragile. [[spoiler: It started with Joergen, who died in episode 5, then it was Water Sheep in episode 14, then Joegen #2 in episode 19. Starting from episode 20, at least one of Pewd's pets have died in nearly every episode.]] |
| 288 | * {{Catchphrase}}: |
| 289 | ** In almost every video: "H-H-How's it going, bros? My name is [=PeeeeewDiePiiieee=]!" |
| 290 | *** DoubleSubverted in a couple of ''VideoGame/HappyWheels'' videos: "My name... why do you always need to know my name? Of course my name is [=PeeeeewDiePiiieee=]!. |
| 291 | *** Subverted during his playthrough of ''VideoGame/{{McPixel}}'', where he opened one of his videos with "My name is Macpewdie and welcome back to more ''VideoGame/{{McPixel}}''." |
| 292 | *** Subverted during his newer videos, where he says "My name is (gibberish)". |
| 293 | ** Another main one is "And welcome toooo...(name of game)!" |
| 294 | ** ''"Notice me, senpai!"'' |
| 295 | ** When playing horror games, he often says "Hello?" |
| 296 | ** Whenever he dies in ''VideoGame/AliceMadnessReturns'', he'll say "I became a butterfly!"[[note]]because Alice will turn into a swarm of butterflies[[/note]], and eventually it made its way to other series starting with ''[[https://youtu.be/n1WQ1B21xx0?t=3m39s HOW TO BE A SALAD!]]''. |
| 297 | ** In ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'', while using the El Diablo gun he'll say "EL DIABLO!" |
| 298 | ** When he picks up a confidential in ''VideoGame/{{Outlast}}'', he'll say "Confidential? Not anymore!" |
| 299 | ** "''I DON'T CAAAAARRRRE''" for Irresponsible Dad. |
| 300 | ** Piggeh has "''I'm Pumped!''" and "''Yeaaahh.''" |
| 301 | ** Stephano says "Allos, Pewdie" so often that it could be considered his catchphrase. |
| 302 | ** THAT'S HOW I ROLL! That's how I get all the ''laaadieees''! |
| 303 | ** He tends to call people/things "little shits" quite a bit. |
| 304 | ** "What is this? What is all of this?" |
| 305 | ** When waking up in Lucius, Pews will say "Waking up in the Morning, [[BadAssBoast not giving a single Fuck]]." |
| 306 | ** He will often yell [[BigShutUp "SHUT UP!"]] at things that scare him, animate or inanimate. |
| 307 | ** "That's how we do it in the [=PewDiePie=] town!" |
| 308 | ** In ''VideoGame/CryOfFear'' and ''VideoGame/AfraidOfMonsters'' at least, he tends to say "Oh [[RapidFireNo no no no no]] senoritas everywhere!" |
| 309 | ** "Genius Pewds strikes again!" when solving a puzzle. |
| 310 | ** BARRELS!!! |
| 311 | ** "So kawaii!" |
| 312 | ** In ''VideoGame/AliceMadnessReturns'', he yells "I'M ON MY PERIOOOOD!" whenever he activates the [[SuperMode "Hysteria"]] power. |
| 313 | ** He will often say "DEUTSCHLAND!" to Edgar. |
| 314 | ** "THAT'S HOW WE DO IT IN THE POODIEPIE TOWN!" |
| 315 | ** A new one as of late is "Alright, alright, alright", in reference to Creator/MatthewMcConaughey's CatchPhrase. |
| 316 | ** "Jesus Christ!" as of late. |
| 317 | ** [[BigWhat "WHAAAAAT?"]] as of late. |
| 318 | ** In ''VideoGame/Minecraft'', "[[LikeADaughterToMe He was like a father to me,]] [[MindScrew I loved him like a son...]]" when his pets die. |
| 319 | * CatchphraseSpoutingDuo: Pewdie and any character he manages to get hold of. |
| 320 | * ChainsawGood: He's positively ''[[AxeCrazy ecstatic]]'' when he finds the bloody chainsaw weapon in ''VideoGame/RiseOfNightmares''. |
| 321 | * CharacterDevelopment: |
| 322 | ** Deciding to stop making rape jokes after the internet's outcry grew high enough thanks to the Retsupurae's video on him. Even the Retsupurae themselves were surprised that he stopped making rape jokes. |
| 323 | ** His playthrough of the ''Franchise/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' games show him becoming progressively less scared of the {{Jump Scare}}s, to the point where he straight-up believes the games aren't scary and that he really just can't get scared of horror as much as he used to. And a lot of his fans keep on wanting him to play horror games.. The only time he did have genuinely scared reactions was playing the first game, and that was since he knew nothing about the game going into it. |
| 324 | *** Ironically, crossing with HypeBacklash, his character development sort of backfired in the public eye; his stone-faced reactions to the jumpscares in his video of ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys4'' elicited ''tons'' of controversy to the point where [[http://pewdie.tumblr.com/post/124998543670/my-worst-video-ever#notes Pewdie had to address it on Tumblr]] and dubbed the video as "[his] worst video ever" ratings-wise. |
| 325 | ** His playthrough of ''VideoGame/SonicExe'' as well; when he is greeted with the [[NightmareFace "I AM GOD"]] picture, Pewdie doesn't so much as freak out as he just gives the picture a solid look and then going, "Okay, I mean, Sonic, you're not that beautiful. Let's be honest." |
| 326 | * ChristmasEpisode: He has many. Usually he plays a Christmas mod or Christmas-related game, but sometimes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yrmz8jexoJQ he pays homage to classic carols]] [[Series/BreakingBad and classic TV shows]]. |
| 327 | * ClickbaitGag: Felix parodies, discusses, and criticizes the practice in "YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS CLICKBAIT ([=Pewdiepie=] React)", by looking through a variety of videos with clickbait, spoiling the fact that their titles don't reflect the content, and then ending with a brief AuthorFilibuster on how clickbait is necessary to succeed on [=YouTube=], even if it isn't ideal. |
| 328 | -->''"I can spend days on a video, and it can get less views than a video we shit out in ten minutes... that has a better title."'' |
| 329 | * CloudCuckooLander: Pewdie invokes this ''heavily'', whenever he isn't in the company of one of his many "friends." Its been shown that, despite Marzia ([=CutiePie=], his wife) has acted as the "straight girl" when both play a videogame, she's more likely to fall into this territory. |
| 330 | -->'''Pewdie''': Don't be hating, I'm a fucking unicorn. |
| 331 | * ClusterFBomb: Both in English and Swedish[[note]]using curses like "Fan!" ("Fuck", literally "The Devil") and "Helvete!" ("Goddamnit", literally "Hell")[[/note]]. Expect this trope to come into play during rage games. |
| 332 | ** During the final half of his ''[[VideoGame/SyobonAction Cat Mario 3]]'' LP. What makes it funnier is that it starts after he had promised not to swear. |
| 333 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GP7QGeWohY The entirety of this video.]] |
| 334 | * ComicallyMissingThePoint: In his playthrough of ''Thirty Flights of Loving'': |
| 335 | -->'''Pewds''': "Wanted: Armed Robbery, Conspiracy, Forgery, Bootlegging. Winston Borges." What? Your name's Winston?? You LIAR! |
| 336 | * ComicalOverreacting: Felix and [=CinnamonToastKen=] both do this during their game of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_3MGE0IGIk&t=114s "Oh Sir: The Insult Simulator"]] |
| 337 | * CompanionCube: Pewdie has a lot of these. |
| 338 | ** Stephano is a "talking" golden statue that shares most of Pewdie's fan art, and is usually found early on in custom stories made specifically for him. |
| 339 | ** Before he found Stephano, he would sometimes carry a human skull, Skully, who shared the same exact voice. |
| 340 | ** When Stephano is otherwise unavailable, Pewdie seeks the company of a diverse array of other characters, such as Piggeh (a [[OfCorpseHesAlive dead pig]]), Mr. Chair ([[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a chair]]) and Jennifer (a rock). |
| 341 | ** In his playthrough of ''Ghost Hunt'', a survival horror map made with ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'', he calls the ghost detector Herky. He's apparently afraid of ghosts. |
| 342 | ** [[VideoGame/HappyWheels Segway Guy]] really like his vehicles, but especially Vespa[[note]]which is actually his segway[[/note]]. |
| 343 | ** Subverted in his ''Black Snow'' playthrough: |
| 344 | --->'''Pewdie:''' "Alright flowers, tell me where your leader is."\ |
| 345 | ''[beat]''\ |
| 346 | '''Pewdie:''' "Forgot flowers can't talk, shit!" |
| 347 | * ControlFreak: Has subtly admitted to being one in [[http://iconmagazine.se/artiklar/stories-in-english/powerful-swede-world-3/ an interview]], considering that he prefers to work on his videos and content independently, and whenever he has to cooperate and collaborate to produce a video, it can turn into a nightmare. On this note, Felix brought up the "STORMTROOPERS VS PEWDIEPIE" video. |
| 348 | -->Disney recently sent over a bunch of people dressed as Stormtroopers to make a video together with me, for charity. First of all, they got upset when they found out that there was no specific room for them to change clothes. And then, they didn’t agree to do basically anything in the video because it was not OK with “The Star Wars universe”. It all turned into chaos and it took a very long time. Finally, we ended up with something that they were going to edit but it was so bad I had to do it over and edit it myself. Furthermore, I don’t want [=Pewdiepie=] to be some kind of trademark that I loose control over …so well, OK. Perhaps a bit of a control freak. |
| 349 | %%zce* CountryMatters: Doesn't say it as much, but still drops it occasionally. |
| 350 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass [=/=] ObfuscatingStupidity: Usually when he plays ''Trouble in Terrorist Town'', [[ObfuscatingStupidity he starts shooting people almost instantly regardless of whether or not he's innocent, gets killed, and causes the others much headache]]. However, in "PLEASE GIVE ME A LARGER PENIS", he acts innocent and maneuvers the others into killing each other off, with Ken being the only one left. Then he hunts down Ken, much to the surprise of everyone else. |
| 351 | * {{Crossover}}: Many examples, like when Pewdie played ''VideoGame/DeadIsland'' together with Morfar, another Swedish Let's Player with a similar fan-artistic, yet smaller, fanbase. He also played the Co-op mode of ''VideoGame/CryOfFear'' and is playing an ''VideoGame/{{ARMA}}'' mod called ''[=DayZ=]'' together with Cry, aka LetsPlay/ChaoticMonki. Recently, Pewds did the co-op of Survivors with Ken aka [=CinnamonToastKen=] and played [=GTAIV=] with Ian and Anthony from Smosh. LetsPlay/{{Strippin}} also joined him and Ken for an episode of "Best Fiends". |
| 352 | * CurbStompBattle: In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvTtrAcaGLY IS MY DAD GAY? (Google Feud w/ KickThePJ)]]", where Pewds and PJ play Google Feud, which is ''Series/FamilyFeud'' [[RecycledInSpace APPLIED TO GOOGLE SEARCHES]], the final score for Pewds is 10,000, while PJ scored ''37,000''. |
| 353 | * {{Defictionalisation}}: A Bro sent him a real Stephano statue for Christmas 2011. He's also received a Barrel candy. |
| 354 | * DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:Bengt's death]] in the ''VideoGame/Journey2012'' LP. |
| 355 | * DelayedReaction: While playing ''VideoGame/{{Outlast}}: Whistleblower'' he was forced to watch a torture scene happen to two male hostages with the villain calling them by girl based nicknames but when he escaped the villain by climbing into a vent and looked at what he presumed were hanging women's corpses on the ceiling, he slowly realised that was no women in the asylum, only men and further realised that the villain was preforming fatal unprofessional sex changes. |
| 356 | -->"So he did it to women too? Or did he give them tits? I think those are (fully realises) fake tits, oh my god, I see it now." |
| 357 | * DisproportionateRetribution: |
| 358 | ** During his LP of ''VideoGame/SirenBloodCurse'': |
| 359 | --->"Oh no, you scared my dog! '''YOU WILL DIE FOR THIS!'''" |
| 360 | ** He gets banned on ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'' just for playing because he's Pewds. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cskmG__kZHQ Even he was stunned at this.]] |
| 361 | * TheDissTrack: PlayedForLaughs with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Dh-RL__uN4 Bitch Lasagna]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHgc8Q6qTjc Congratulations]]", a pair of diss tracks against Indian music record label and film production company Creator/TSeries, as the two creators were in competition at the time for the most subscribed Platform/YouTube channel. PewDiePie brings up T-Series' shady past, possible mafia collusion, and the fact that they sent him a cease and desist letter for expressing his disdain for their company. |
| 362 | * DistaffCounterpart: Subverted with Cutie Pie, aka Marzia, Felix's wife's channel. While [=Pewdiepie=] does let's plays, she herself mostly does blogs on fashion and makeup tutorials. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr-6-tv5MF8 She actually made a video explaining that she was her own person and people shouldn't subscribe if they expect to see Pewdie all the time.]] |
| 363 | * DistractedByTheSexy: Frequently. |
| 364 | ** If he manages to catch a glimpse of a grunt's butt, he is immediately distracted by it. |
| 365 | ** His first goal in ''Nosferatu: The Wrath of Malachi'' was to find Rebecca and her titties. |
| 366 | ** He agreed that "Santas wife" was a beautiful woman. |
| 367 | ** Motorboating Sophie's titties in ''VideoGame/CryOfFear'' was decidedly something he wanted to do. |
| 368 | ** In part 7 of his ''VideoGame/{{Lucius}}'' playthrough, Pewdie frequently lost himself in the middle of commentary to stare at the naked maid in the bath. |
| 369 | * TheDogBitesBack: In ''VideoGame/HappyWheels'', when the Son gets the upper hand, he will try to lash out against his dad. |
| 370 | * DontExplainTheJoke: The ending of the first episode of his ''Conker's Bad Fur Day'' LP has Pewdie inviting Conker to do the outro. Pewdie then says that he's voicing Conker and he's trying to be funny. |
| 371 | * DontTryThisAtHome: When he's about to start his walkthrough of ''VideoGame/{{Bully}}: Scholarship Edition'', he also states that it's not a good thing to be a bully in real life. |
| 372 | * DrivenToSuicide: He once got so surprised by a jumpscare in one of his ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' [=LPs=] that he ''jumped out the window and killed himself in-game''. |
| 373 | * DudeNotFunny: InUniverse examples. |
| 374 | ** During his playthrough of ''VideoGame/TheWitchsHouse'', when he reads the '[[DownerEnding Funny Story]]' book and the chair laughs at the ending, Pewdie gets angry. |
| 375 | --->'''[=Pewdiepie=]:''' YOU EVIL BITCHES! THAT IS NOT A FUNNY STORY! |
| 376 | ** His reaction in "REACTING TO MY GAY SEXTAPE!!" video when one of the submissions edited him into one of the planes that flew into the World Trade Center. While even the titular "GAY SEXTAPE" got a chuckle out of him, that clip was just met with silence for several moments. |
| 377 | --->'''[=Pewdiepie=]''': Um... You don't win the competition. |
| 378 | %%* EndOfAnAge: On March 26th, 2019, after a 6 month long worldwide campaign to keep him at #1, Felix was finally irreversibly surpassed by Creator/TSeries, putting an end to his six year reign as the King of [=YouTube=]. {{Downplayed}} in the fact that he is still the most subscribed individual creator and will likely remain so for years. |
| 379 | * EpicFail: |
| 380 | ** One jumpscare in ''VideoGame/AoOni'' had him jumping in fright, alt-tabbing out of the game, and revealing the walkthrough he was using. |
| 381 | ** In general, jump scares leave his leg in pain a lot, especially in the reading of ''Bongcheon Dong Ghost'' were he had to get a pillow in case another jump scare happened during the reading. He was right. |
| 382 | ** In general, first-person jump scares is something Pewdie is terrible at, but even more so for first-person platform jumping. Once, he wound up hitting the "record" button by mistake as a result, which meant about a minute of game footage wasn't recorded (his webcam, however, was still on). |
| 383 | ** During the playthrough of ''VideoGame/CondemnedCriminalOrigins'', crashes caused him to cut the video short twice--''in a row.'' |
| 384 | ** During his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXO1J3y2i6w No Swear Electric Challenge]], he manages to save himself from saying "fuck" via LastSecondWordSwap...only to swap it with another swear ("fine ass bitch"). |
| 385 | ** His ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'' playthrough had him getting genuinely stumped by Rouxls Kaard's joke puzzle, which is solved by simply pushing a block one tile to the left. |
| 386 | ---> '''[=PewDiePie=]:''' I was stuck on the puzzle that was supposed to be easy! ''[FacePalm]'' |
| 387 | * EvenTheGuysWantHim: Music/RoomieOfficial (a fellow Swedish Platform/{{YouTube}}r) [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLaOsNwmieE made a whole song]] about how goddamn fabulous Pewdie is. |
| 388 | %%* EveryoneIsBi: It appears to be so with every male character. |
| 389 | * EverythingsCuterWithKittens: Occasionally after a couple bad {{jump scare}}s, he'll go into "cat therapy" and search up cats and kittens on Google Images. |
| 390 | * ExtremeOmnisexual: Piggeh. He'll even put the moves on [[SitcomArchNemesis barrels]]. |
| 391 | %%* EyeScream: His ''VideoGame/SurgeonSimulator2013'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb5ksJhmLjU eye transplant video]]. Poor Bob. |
| 392 | * FanCommunityNickname: Literally, his fans are known as "Bros", sharing the same name as the nicknamed ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' enemies. He also tend to call the skullhand from ''VideoGame/AfraidOfMonsters'' "Ruben", and then there's all the other characters he's made up. |
| 393 | * FanDisillusionment: He [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFbVKL-Meo0 made a comment on the Retsupurae mocking him]] that implied he was OnlyInItForTheMoney. This upset some of his fans quite a bit. Weeks later, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPf0CTptt8o he made a video]] clarifying the comment in question and attempting to provide damage control. |
| 394 | * FanDisservice: His ''LET ME BE YOUR HERO!'' video. It's just Pewdie singing a cover of Enrique Iglesias' "Hero" while walking around and skipping stones--as well as groping, licking, and caressing his sex toy named Jerry. |
| 395 | %%zce** Also, his ''VideoGame/{{Loadout}}'' video. Just watch it. |
| 396 | ** His Harlem Shake video, which featured him dancing in women's underwear. Through the underwear, his penis was rather...er...[[http://25.media.tumblr.com/a6b9f7af15927b0b934dbb9a990747c0/tumblr_mia097Va0v1qf959ko4_500.gif noticeable]] in the original video (which got flagged), so he had to re-upload it with a big censor on the spot. |
| 397 | * {{Filler}}: Often, when he plays an ''Amnesia'' mod that is short in time length, Pewds would play another ''Amnesia'' mod, or, on one occasion, plays another horror game. |
| 398 | * {{Flanderization}}: Compare [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnLLZchh5lU Pewdie then]][[note]]back when he was much calmer and not nearly as quirky[[/note]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u33dwH42FVc and Pewdie now]][[note]]relentlessly wacky and zany[[/note]]. |
| 399 | * FlippingTheBird: |
| 400 | ** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NFXygkRiVI&list=SPYH8WvNV1YEmYN9TN4YQhBpt76iMg4Ysx his first Obscurity video at the end]] after a bad JumpScare. |
| 401 | ** The "Congratulations" music video has [=PewDiePie=] lifting his sunglasses with his middle finger in a subtle way of flipping off Creator/TSeries. |
| 402 | * ForeignCussWord: |
| 403 | ** "Vaffanculo!"[[note]]Italian for "Fuck you!"[[/note]]. Greetings from Italy too, [=PewDie=]. |
| 404 | ** He also has a tendancy to say jävla helvetes, fan, and fitta. [[note]]Swedish for fucking hell, damn, and cunt, respectively[[/note]]. |
| 405 | * ForeignLanguageTirade: ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' is so rage inducingly difficult for him that he spends most of the first episode speaking Swedish. |
| 406 | * FullFrontalAssault: '''TELEPORTING NAKED GUYS!''' |
| 407 | ** And nipple guys from ''VideoGame/AfraidOfMonsters''. |
| 408 | * FreezeFrameBonus: A common feature in his montage videos, usually poking fun at what Pewdie is saying or doing. |
| 409 | ** In select videos, you will see his desktop and you might be able to see some folders containing various types of porn. |
| 410 | * FreudianExcuse: The reason Irresponsible Dad is so....[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin irresponsible]] towards his son is because Santa didn't give him any presents during his childhood. |
| 411 | %%* FunnyForeigner: Boy howdy. |
| 412 | * FunWithAcronyms: While playing ''VideoGame/ToTheMoon'', Pewdie pronounces ADG to stand for "Angry Dinosaur Guillotine". |
| 413 | ** Similarly, in his playthrough of ''VideoGame/SlenderTheArrival'', he pronounces PFD to stand for "[=PewDiePie=]'s Fucking Dick". |
| 414 | ** Additionally, in his playthrough of ''The Crooked Man'', he pronounces AED to stand for "Angry Evil Dick". |
| 415 | ** And then in the video "THE ILLUMINATI REVEALED", he pronounces Illuminati to stand for "I Love Louis's Uncle Man I'm Not A [=TIt=]". |
| 416 | * FunWithSubtitles: He'll usually subtitle his Swedish swears into English, and add little comments when something doesn't make sense. His early montage videos wrote what he and his characters said, but sometimes replaced words with images and punctuated with emoticons. |
| 417 | %%* GainaxEnding: Occasionally. |
| 418 | %%* {{GASP}}: One of Pewds' default reactions to a jumpscare. |
| 419 | * GayMoment: For Valentine's Day, Pewds and Cry read [[FanficRecs/PewDiePie a fanfiction]] [[HilarityEnsues about themselves]]. |
| 420 | * GenreSavvy: Pewdie can generally predict certain twists in stories, such as [[spoiler: Takuro actually being a traitor]] after having miraculously escaped the Oni. He's also this way about his fans' behavior in response to his actions, stating that he'll get "fifty-million comments about it" when he forgets the name of a game in his ''VideoGame/ShadowOfTheColossus'' walkthrough. |
| 421 | * GilliganCut: After receiving a ceramic barrel and a ceramic [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man]], he tries standing Slendy upright in the barrel. One cut later, and Slendy's head first instead. |
| 422 | * GiverOfLameNames: VideoGame/{{QWOP}} named his cat Rickulus, if Pewdie is to be believed. |
| 423 | * GladToBeAliveSex: Pewdie wanted to make babies with Stephano after surviving House of Creeps 3. Stephano reacted with disgust and anger... but after 15 seconds he said the exact same thing to Pewdie. |
| 424 | * GoneHorriblyRight: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgzzgvy3X5U "HOT SAUCE FAIL"]], where Pewdie decided to do a challenge where he'd have to eat some hot sauce every time he swore. (Doesn't sound like much until you realize that Pewdie got this sauce from a guy in a back alley, ''had to sign a contract'', and was advised to never eat more than '''a toothpick's worth'''.) Eventually, he does swear, and after taking the sauce he is too distracted by the pain and agony to swear. He does eventually acknowledge this. |
| 425 | * GratuitousForeignLanguage: Has a habit of slipping back into Swedish and, oddly enough, Spanish, French or Italian. Despite this, in his Swedish commentary of ''VideoGame/HappyWheels'', Pewdie slips some English words in by accident several times. |
| 426 | * GratuitousGerman: Occasionally. "EDGAR! DEUTSCHLAND!" |
| 427 | [[/folder]] |
| 428 | [[folder:H-M]] |
| 429 | * HeroicBSOD: In his ''VideoGame/CorpseParty'' LP, Pewdie is very shaken during and after [[spoiler:Seiko's death]]. A lesser example after [[spoiler:Bengt's death]] in the ''VideoGame/Journey2012'' LP. |
| 430 | %%* HeterosexualLifePartners: Pewdie and Stephano. Or is there more to the relationship? |
| 431 | * HiddenDepths: On occasion, he does videos where he drops his hyperactive persona completely to speak on matters that are close to his heart (read: speaks as ''Felix'', not necessarily as ''[=PewDiePie=]''), from essays on modern society and philosophy to book or manga recommendations. In these videos, he comes off as well-read and inquisitive, if not modest, and while they're not regular and not as popular, they're highly favored among fans. |
| 432 | * HiddenInPlainSight: Many items, because Pewdie won't thoroughly check a room unless he is playing an ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' mod. |
| 433 | * HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: Most of the jokes in his ''VideoGame/HappyWheels'' videos revolve around this. |
| 434 | * HollywoodDensity: [[SarcasmMode "All goats]] [[VideoGame/GoatSimulator can float."]] |
| 435 | * HornyVikings: Invoked in one Friday With [=Pewdiepie=] episode, when he acknowledged that he had been nominated for King of the Web. |
| 436 | * HumbleHero: Felix refuses to let his fame get to his head, repeatedly assuring fans that he doesn't see himself as famous or deserving of special treatment and sometimes admitting to [[BlessedWithSuck being bogged down by his fame's downsides, including encroaching attention and restricted creative freedoms]]. |
| 437 | * HypocriticalHumor: During the third part of the ''VideoGame/{{Fahrenheit}}'' Let's Play, [=PewDie=] has the choice of saving a little boy or letting him drown. Pewdie comments that "I can't kill an innocent little boy." [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWdAPYiu8DQ&t=11m28s Cue a clip]] of one of his ''VideoGame/HappyWheels'' playthroughs... |
| 438 | %%* IconicItem: Around 2013, his Razer Kraken Pro headphones. |
| 439 | * IJustWantToBeNormal: He has said in numerous videos that he doesn't want special treatment because of his job and doesn't want his fans to be hostile and aggressive to people who don't like his videos or for fans to pester him too much when he is off camera. |
| 440 | ** On several occasions, he publicly considered deleting his channel for reasons ranging from being tired of algorithm issues to wanting to start over from scratch, but [=YouTube=] and his advertisers essentially make that impossible. |
| 441 | * InherentlyFunnyWords: Has used them on occasion. |
| 442 | -->"[after a JumpScare in ''[[VideoGame/SilentHills PT]]]'' OHHH! ''[{{beat}}]'' Snoop Dogg!" |
| 443 | * InterspeciesRomance: Piggeh wants some with Pewdie, but so far has only enjoyed the company of everything but Pewdie. |
| 444 | * InsaneTrollLogic: Used extensively in his ''[[VideoGame/TheImpossibleQuiz Impossible Quiz]]'' series. |
| 445 | -->'''Pewds''': "Deal or no deal?" How is there a correct fucking answer to a fucking dick? "Deal" rhymes with "seal", and seal doesn't have a deal. And the people who don't have a deal, are usually...not a seal. (clicks "no seal"; wrong answer) |
| 446 | * IntentionallyAwkwardTitle: Part 8 of his ''VideoGame/TheForest'' LP is called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWvIjZVy2us "THE GREAT HAND JOB"]]. |
| 447 | * ItMakesSenseInContext: |
| 448 | -->'''Pewdie:''' I nearly collapsed in a vagina! |
| 449 | %%* IWillWaitForYou: Something both Stephano and Piggeh have endured. |
| 450 | * IWasQuiteALooker: Skully claims to have been attractive once. Now he's a skull with two fleshy legs. |
| 451 | * {{Irony}}: In his early playthrough of ''VideoGame/ManOfMedan'', he doesn't like Julia's character and often makes fun of her out of spite. But in just a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLLwKZ2fJyg single episode]] later, Felix [[spoiler:unfortunately missed a few QuickTimeEvent sequences that led to the deaths of Julia's lover Alex and her brother Conrad.]] |
| 452 | * TheJoyOfFirstFlight: He's utterly delighted when first flying around his ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' world with the Elytra in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wm-HtcQ48_I Minecraft just became 10x better!]] |
| 453 | * JumpScare: |
| 454 | ** A victim of many of them. With a camera recording his fear in all its glory, too! Some viewers might get scared along with him. |
| 455 | ** Bros have reported being frightened whenever he shouts '''BARRELS!''' |
| 456 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gp7xtX_I3cg The ending of "How to become a pigeon and escape life forever"]] will take you by surprise. |
| 457 | * KaleidoscopeHair: It's not his hair, but his Razer headphones, which come in practically every color of the rainbow (green, pink, white, etc). |
| 458 | * KentBrockmanNews: Pew News is a parody of mainstream news outlets like CNN and [=YouTube=] drama shows like Keemstar's [=DramaAlert=]. It's supposedly the most unbiased news show, though the reporters constantly inject their opinion on the subject (even if they're not supposed to). |
| 459 | * KickTheDog: His ''VideoGame/{{Calling}}'' LP was loaded with him saying how he didn't care about Reiko, who was already DrivenToSuicide. |
| 460 | %%zce* '''''LargeHam''''': As emphasized by the bold and italics on the Trope Name. |
| 461 | * LastSecondWordSwap: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXO1J3y2i6w The No Swear Electric Challenge]] is chock full of them, natch. Containing one of the most funniest Subversions of this trope. |
| 462 | * LeaveTheCameraRunning: At the end of episode 8 of ''Shadow of the Colussus'', after doing his sign off, Pewdie gets pranked by his girlfriend. |
| 463 | %%* LecherousLicking: He does it a lot. Taken to disturbing extents in "LET ME BE YOUR HERO!". |
| 464 | * LeftItIn: He has a habit of saying things like "Pewds of the future, edit this part out", or some variation, usually after messing up or saying something bad. |
| 465 | * LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn: In "NEW VIRAL DANCE MOVE", Pewdie wakes up in a joyful mood with background music accompanying it, only for him to angrily yell "Turn that shit off!" and go back to sleep. |
| 466 | * MadeOfExplodium: A series of shelves with chemicals in part three of ''[[VideoGame/GarrysMod Ghost Hunt]]''. Cue explosion and [[ShellShockSilence ringing]]. |
| 467 | * ManlyTears: Pewds cries on-camera for the first time during one of the particularly heart-wrenching moments during his walkthrough of ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale.'' The second time he cries, during the same walkthrough, he actually has to look away from the camera. |
| 468 | * MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: When he and his wife play ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' together. While Pewdie ScreamsLikeALittleGirl, she ''[[NightmareFetishist laughs]]''. |
| 469 | * MathematiciansAnswer: In his second Cleverbot video, he asked "What about you?" and it came out as "What about your ear?" Cleverbot replied "Yes." |
| 470 | * MindScrew: |
| 471 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbkn2v6Iq-Q&feature=relmfu The Small Horse]] arc. Even Pewdie has no clue what the hell he's playing. |
| 472 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TByHblGBfr8 GUESS WHICH ONE IS REAL?]] video, which contains two versions of Pewdie, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin and you must figure out which version is the real Pewdie.]] The story goes into strange territory rather quickly. And then Pewdie tried to explain the story: |
| 473 | --->''[[spoiler:Disguised fake Pewds tries to poison Pewds 1 in cinnamon challenge. Disguised fake Pewds is actually Hitler Pewds PLOT TWIST Hitler Pewds tries to finish Pewds 1 off. Pewds 1 escapes without Hitler Pewds notices by replacing himself with Ragdoll Jerry. Hitler Pewds gets shot by Pewds 1. Hitler Pewds is actually in love with Ragdoll Jerry PLOT TWIST. Pewds 1 finishes Hitler Pewds off and dies much drama Pewds 1 steals Ragdoll Jerry for his girlfriend. A few days later ragdoll Jerry is depressed and thinks of the times him and Hitler Pewds had together. Ragdoll Pewds kills himself. Pewds 1 realizes he is broken/dead. The universe get's altered. Alpha and Omega. All that shit. The End.]]'' |
| 474 | ** The ''TIME FOR REVENGE!'' video, which is a sequel to the aforementioned video, features two new versions of Pewds as well as [[spoiler:Pewds 2 aka Hitler Pewds. He goes into a bathroom, shaves, and becomes a priest. [[GainaxEnding Then the video ends on a]] CliffHanger.]] |
| 475 | * MyGreatestFailure: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPf0CTptt8o Pewdie truly regrets that infamous comment he made in the midst of the Retsupurae controversy.]] |
| 476 | [[/folder]] |
| 477 | [[folder:N-T]] |
| 478 | * NeverMyFault: In his video complaining about the problems with [=YouTube=] and saying how he will delete his channel at fifty million subscribers. One of his complaints is that he thinks that the site is unsubscribing his followers or his videos are not being shown in the subscribers [=YouTube=] feed. He didn't consider the fact that some of the subscribers may have become distrustful due to the amount of clickbait he has been using despite claiming he's used them as a joke. |
| 479 | * NightmareFace: |
| 480 | ** Pewds is really good at these, and more often than not it's a SlasherSmile. |
| 481 | *** Take the thumbnails for [[http://i.ytimg.com/vi/9B6sP8I_qAA/maxresdefault.jpg LITTLE REASONS TO SMILE]] and [[http://i.ytimg.com/vi/9yMmqckmV5E/maxresdefault.jpg HOW TO FLIRT WITH GIRLS]], for example. (Both are fairly large pictures.) |
| 482 | *** His [[http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/332/d/b/it__s_just_you__me_and_the_loading_screen____by_yourexsistence-d5mhggi.png "loading screen" face]]. |
| 483 | ** God forbid he has Photoshop and starts getting [[BodyHorror creative]] with his thumbnails. There's a whole folder of freaky thumbnails on the nightmare fuel page. |
| 484 | * NoJustNoReaction: His response to finding out that Xuarest Xth killed his mother in ''VideoGame/MadFather'', [[spoiler: and afterwards wiped the blood off of her face just to notice how pretty she was]] was essentially: |
| 485 | -->'''Pewds:''' That's... That's just... No. |
| 486 | * NonindicativeName: |
| 487 | ** Piggeh is actually a snake, according to one playthrough of an ''Amnesia'' mod. |
| 488 | ** The "statues" that he blames so often while playing ''Amnesia'' are actually suits of armour. |
| 489 | ** In his playthrough of "The Stanley Parable" he called a radiator a refrigerator and a refrigerator a radiator. |
| 490 | ** The 'title card' for his ''Amnesia'' Custom Story "Through the Portal" video implies it's a crossover of ''{{VideoGame/Portal}}'', when it really is a FanSequel. |
| 491 | * NotDistractedByTheSexy: Nothing Piggeh has tried in a attempt to seduce Pewdie has suceeded. |
| 492 | * NothingIsScarier: '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdsQTXG3Ilg CATACOMBS CHALLENGE]]'''. Just imagine having to navigate ''by yourself'' through the real Paris catacombs with little information on what to do besides getting three keys. Not to mention the feeling that someone's going to pop out and scare you at any given moment, or at the same time be following you silently... |
| 493 | %%* NoticeThis: The only thing that can guarantee that Pewdie find items in some of the games. |
| 494 | * NotQuiteDead: Irresponsible Dad and JB can still talk even after being decapitated or turned into LudicrousGibs, lampshaded once in a while. |
| 495 | %%* NotThatTheresAnythingWrongWithThat: Draws on this a ''lot'' in his playthrough of ''VideoGame/ChoAniki''. |
| 496 | * NWordPrivileges: |
| 497 | ** The first time he used it was in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjqCs3TdZtM this GTA 5 video.]] |
| 498 | ** The second time was when he found out he had the 18th most handsome face of 2016. Subverted example as the N-word was cut short. |
| 499 | ** The third, and by far ''the'' most infamous instance was when he said the N-word to another player during ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jdh7EQRgps that]]'' ''VideoGame/PlayerUnknownsBattlegrounds'' live stream. |
| 500 | %%* OhCrap: This was his reaction to the Fiverr Funny Guys fulfilling his request, [[{{Understatement}} after that everything went from bad to worse.]] |
| 501 | %%* OnlyInItForTheMoney: His infamous comment on the Retsupurae controversy implied this, but it's clearly not true. |
| 502 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Averted, as the majority of the bros know his real name. |
| 503 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: |
| 504 | ** Whenever he breaks character, it will be because he is genuinely scared. The second part of the ''VideoGame/AfraidOfMonsters'' playthrough has him terrified for minutes. |
| 505 | ** The only other time he breaks character is when he's genuinely saddened and on the verge of tears. |
| 506 | * OohMeAccentsSlipping: Pewds sometimes switches from English to Swedish in his walkthroughs, but he usually gives us subtitles when this happens. |
| 507 | * OrphanedSeries: Including, but ''definitely'' not limited to... |
| 508 | ** His playthrough of ''VideoGame/ParappaTheRapper'' was only three parts long for a while, and Pewdie never got past the Full Tank level. He does eventually [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvZbyUADqd4 finish the game]]. |
| 509 | ** His ''VideoGame/AliceMadnessReturns'' LP is a more popular example. It went up to part 15 but will unfortunately never see a part 16, since Pewdie forgot his save file for the game when moving. |
| 510 | ** His ''VideoGame/{{Seaman}}'' playthrough, due to being too freaked out by the OutWithABang scene. |
| 511 | * OutOfCharacterMoment: In his walkthrough of the ''VideoGame/CryOfFear'' custom story, ''The Stairway,'' there's one JumpScare that doesn't get him. Pewdie himself is surprised. |
| 512 | * OverlyLongGag: His speech/eulogy after killing the patient named Bob in ''VideoGame/SurgeonSimulator2013''. |
| 513 | -->'''Pewds:''' ""Surgery Failed"..."And it was going so well..."... Bob has left us, Bros... He was such a good friend... He was always there for me... I'm going to miss him so much... *sobs* ... His beautiful face, that I haven't seen.. Half of his nose, that I haven't seen either. It was.. special. What me and Bob had, it was something you see once in a lifetime... Bob was one of those guys you could just go out and have a beer with. And make out a little bit with. And it wouldn't be awkward the day after. Bob was that guy. [[HoYay He would actually touch my butt a lot, and it would tickle.]] In the nicest way... Bob knew how to treat me like a princess... *sigh* ... Bob... You will be remembered... I love you. One day, we'll meet again. And then... I will kiss you. I will gather the courage... and I will lick your nipples. Bob... Bob... *sobs*..." |
| 514 | ** His reading of the [=YouTube=] search results for "Don't believe [=FaZe=] Clan" in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHNbitDDW3A PewDiePie React]]". |
| 515 | --->'''Pewds:''' I can't believe this happened, I can't believe this, You won't believe this, She doesn't believe me, I can't believe ...these kids, Can you believe this?, I can't believe this, I can't believe I fell. I can't believe it! ''(begins to walk away from the computer screen)'' ''I can't believe I found this! I can't believe it! Can you believe this?'' '''[[RageBreakingPoint I can't believe it!! He can't believe it!!!]]''' '''''[[RageBreakingPoint YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS!!]]''''' ''(JumpCut)'' [[SanitySlippage Fucking hell,]] [[LampshadeHanging It goes on! it goes on...]] |
| 516 | * OverlyNarrowSuperlative: Pewdie called ''Quickscope Simulator'' "the most accurate no-scope simulator" he's ever seen. |
| 517 | * PapaWolf: |
| 518 | ** In his Playthrough of ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale'', he becomes very protective of Clementine, the little girl that the player character takes in. At one point he even explicitly states that he'll stop playing the game if she gets killed off. The same applies towards Ellie from ''The Last of Us''. |
| 519 | ** He's also very protective of [[VideoGame/TheCrookedMan Fluffy]]. He even states that he would uninstall the game if he died ([[spoiler: he doesn't, by virtue of never existing in the first place]]). |
| 520 | * ThePerilsOfBeingTheBest: He has created multiple videos showing some of the problems of being a channel with the highest number of subscribers. The most notorious examples are the anti-semitism scandal in 2016 and the Christchurch mosque shooting in 2019. The former caused Felix to be accused of being racist and anti-semitic due to a bad joke being blown out of proportion. The latter caused people to blame him for the shooting after the shooter referenced the "Subscribe to Pewdiepie" meme. Lighter examples include lesser [=YouTubers=] challenging him for the title of "[[RedBaron The King of [=YouTube=]]]" or other [=YouTubers=] bullying him for the sake of drama and bragging rights. |
| 521 | * PetTheDog: Quite literally, as Pewdie has had several dogs, the most famous being Maya (or Puga as they sometimes call her). Edgar's probably a close second. |
| 522 | * PlayTheGameSkipTheStory: InUniverse. This was averted in his early playthroughs where he would take care to read the journals so common in horror games- however as time progressed he began to skip them more and more. |
| 523 | %%* PleaseDontLeaveMe: Said by Pewdie [[spoiler:[[DeathByIrony right before]] [[VideoGame/Journey2012 Bengt]] [[DeathByIrony dies.]]]] |
| 524 | * PrettyBoy: He was rated the 18th most handsome celebrity in 2016. [[https://youtu.be/E0Y4PwAtpV8?t=1m50s And the 7th most handsome celebrity in 2017.]] |
| 525 | * PreviouslyOn: Sometimes in LP series, Pewdie will give a quick recap of the previous episode. It usually follows this template: |
| 526 | -->'''Pewdie (in strange accent)''': In the previous episode... |
| 527 | -->(one-second recap of something from previous episode) |
| 528 | -->'''Pewdie (in same accent)''': And the epic story continues... |
| 529 | ** The second episode of "Things You Should Never Google" begins one with "[[ShoutOut Previously on]] ''Series/{{Lost}}''". |
| 530 | %%* PsychoLesbian: One of his playthroughs of ''VideoGame/Facade2005'' ends up like this. |
| 531 | %%--> '''Pewdie''': "No lesbian love for you!" |
| 532 | * {{Pun}}: |
| 533 | ** In some of his recent montage-esque videos, the transition from scene to scene will show an image with a pattern of WesternAnimation/FelixTheCat heads. [[DontExplainTheJoke Get it, because Pewdie's name is Felix...]] |
| 534 | ** In his Christmas gift idea video, he shows a fake piece of poop which he is clearly disgusted by. He then asks "Who came up with this shit...''[[LampshadeHanging literally?]]''" |
| 535 | %%* PyrrhicVictory: See BittersweetEnding above. |
| 536 | * RageQuit: |
| 537 | ** In part 17 of his ''Fahrenheit'' LP, he just got up out of his chair and left his house for about a minute [[spoiler: after Carla says "I love you" to Lucas after actually knowing him and being in the same room as him for about five hours tops.]] |
| 538 | ** He has done this several times now in his ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' LP, often not coming back for several hours or even a day. To be fair though, the game tries its hardest to elicit this reaction out of anyone who plays it and is very good at inducing rage. |
| 539 | ** He also decided to quit playing ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys1'' after dying too many times at the hands of Foxy in the fourth night. He does finish the sequel, though. |
| 540 | * RelaxOVision: Invoked in his playthrough of the ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' mod ''House of Creep 3'' - he gets so spooked by the sheer amount of Teleporting Naked Guys in the hallway, he has to quit the game and look up pictures of kittens. He refers to it as "Kitten Therapy" and sometimes does the same with puppies. |
| 541 | * RevisitingTheRoots: Since June 2019, [=PewDiePie=] has been uploading Let's Plays of ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', something he used to do back in his early days. |
| 542 | * RhymesOnADime: From one of his ''QWOP'' videos: |
| 543 | -->''Haters gonna hate,''\ |
| 544 | ''I laugh cuz you skate,''\ |
| 545 | ''This is not my fate,''\ |
| 546 | ''Because I ate.'' |
| 547 | * RhymingWithItself: |
| 548 | --> ''I know you love me, I don't care''\ |
| 549 | '' I sing Justin Bieber, I don't care'' |
| 550 | * RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Most of the dogs that he and Marzia own qualify, the most recent one being Maya, or Puga as many fans have called it. Maya still qualifies after having lost an eye. |
| 551 | * RunningGag: [[RunningGag/PewDiePie Now with its own page.]] |
| 552 | %%* SadistShow: Occasionally. |
| 553 | * SanitySlippage: Pewdie's second playthrough of ''[[Website/SCPFoundation SCP-087-B]]'' may be the closest time he's come to being completely traumatised. Towards the end, he starts whimpering and begging for the game to stop, and when he reaches the final scare, he calms down and proclaims he's a man, then ''runs out of the room screaming''. |
| 554 | ** His frustrating playthrough of ''[[PlatformHell Cat Mario]]'' eventually reduces him to a [[TheUnintelligible raving mess]] and attempting to RageQuit only 2 minutes in. |
| 555 | ** The first episode of his playthrough of "Unfair Mario" lives up to its episode title: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0oYiCBoyfk ALL OF MY HATE!]]" |
| 556 | * SayMyName: ''[[VideoGame/Journey2012 BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENGT]]'' |
| 557 | * ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Even more so back when he was a much more avid screamer, making for some amusing contrast [[MasculineGirlFeminineBoy between him and Marzia.]] However, he has adapted a more normal-sounding scream. |
| 558 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: |
| 559 | ** When he sets off an alarm in ''VideoGame/ZombiU'', he just pauses the game and says that he doesn't want to play anymore. Later subverted when he realizes that it's too early to end the part and keeps going. |
| 560 | ** After Pewdie finally snaps [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gp7xtX_I3cg while playing a rage game]] (one that a bro made for him, no less), he states that Edgar will be taking over the channel. |
| 561 | * ScrewYourself: [[http://youtu.be/HUXgkHRuNHI?t=1m13s If Pewdie was gay, he'd be his own partner.]] |
| 562 | * SchmuckBait: |
| 563 | ** He just HAD to check out a coffin... [[SubvertedTrope only to find a key in it]]... with a [[spoiler: [[DoubleSubvertedTrope TELEPORTING NAKED GUY RIGHT BEHIND HIM!]]]] |
| 564 | ** In a ''VideoGame/{{Slender}}'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWqoUpOhx6s& mod]], he finds a page that reads, "BEHIND YOU". Guess where Slenderman is. |
| 565 | ** His ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzQ6t7Mulgc 10 Things You Should Never Google]]'' series runs on this. |
| 566 | * SelectiveObliviousness: In one of his Q&As, he gets asked if he can sing a ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'' song. ''Somehow'', he interprets it as "Can you sing 'Let it Go' on guitar?" |
| 567 | * SelfDisposingVillain: Pewds himself when he accidentally falls off a cliff after telling a talking table 'I killed your father!' |
| 568 | * ShamefulStrip: During [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DXRdOvZYsE his 8 million sub milestone video]], Pewds ends up getting into a game of strip poker with his pugs, and it ends with him crying and taking his bra off for his dogs, who are chanting "Take it off!" |
| 569 | * ShapedLikeItself: From his ''Impossible Quiz'' video; "I've tried eating a yellow glove before, and it tasted like a yellow glove." |
| 570 | * ShoutOut: [[ShoutOut/PewDiePie Gee, where do you begin?]] |
| 571 | * SirSwearsALot: Pewds is this in both English and Swedish. He has stated that he's trying to tone it down a bit.[[note]]Exhibit A: The No Swear Electric Challenge. Exhibit B: The Hot Sauce Fail.[[/note]] |
| 572 | * SitcomArchnemesis: His latest one involves a channel from India called Creator/TSeries and Felix considers the channel as his greatest rival when it comes to the number one channel on Platform/YouTube.[[note]]Though Felix notes that [=YouTube=] Gaming, Music, and Movie already surpassed him ages ago.[[/note]] |
| 573 | * SlasherSmile: He often takes time out to show the bros his creepy grin. |
| 574 | * SmallNameBigEgo: Inverted. [=PewDiePie=] is without a doubt the biggest name on [=YouTube=] and probably in gaming as well, but he's so humble about it that ''he doesn't even consider himself to be famous.'' |
| 575 | %%* SnowMeansDeath: [[spoiler:[[TearJerker Poor Bengt.]]]] |
| 576 | * SpecialGuest: |
| 577 | ** Was one on episode 50 of ''Your Grammar Sucks'' (a Platform/YouTube series by WebVideo/{{Jacksfilms}}). |
| 578 | ** He also appeared at the end of WebVideo/YouTubeRewind 2013 where he finds the [[ArcSymbol rewind button]] on a beach and buries it in the rocks. |
| 579 | ** He then returned for the next Rewind, this time at the start, portraying the blue-hoodied man from the "Turn Down for What" video. |
| 580 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is it Piggy or Peggeh? Or Piggeh? |
| 581 | * StealthPun: For transition clips, he likes to use DisneyAcidSequence clips from ''Felix'' the Cat cartoons. |
| 582 | * StepfordSmiler: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbn31vBH1C8 While playing Impossible Quiz 2.]] |
| 583 | -->'''Pewds''': I love this game! |
| 584 | %%* StunnedSilence: He has this in reaction to [[spoiler: Sayori's suicide]] in ''VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub''. |
| 585 | * SubvertedCatchphrase: |
| 586 | ** In one of his videos co-hosted by Cry, [=PewDiePie=] invites him to do the outro. However Cry can't remember it so instead of "Stay awesome, bros, bah-hiiiiii" he comes up with "Bro day, every day," which has become a Catchphrase of it's own. |
| 587 | ** It turns out that brandishing a hammer will just make Smashnese. |
| 588 | * SuddenlySpeaking: A certain German creator of custom stories for Pew has the statues greet him. '''[[JumpScare HALLO FREUNDE!]]''' |
| 589 | * SuicideAsComedy: He once got so surprised by a jumpscare in one of his ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' [=LPs=] that he ''jumped out the window and killed himself in-game''. |
| 590 | -->'''Pewdie''': Uuuuuuggggghhhhhhhhhh (jumps out window) fuuuck thiiiis shhiiiiiiiiiiiiiittt! |
| 591 | * SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: After a jump cut, he will categorically deny that he looked up a walkthrough. |
| 592 | * SynchroVox: In a ClipShow of his ''VideoGame/AoOni'' LP, [=Pewdiepie=] superimposes his own mouth on a close-up of the titular monster as he opens the closet and goes "[[BlackComedyRape IT'S RAPING TIME!]]". |
| 593 | * TakeOurWordForIt: His "TOP 5 SHOCKING WEBSITES" video has the shock sites in question being blurred to indecipherable extents or just not shown altogether, instead just showing Pewdie's reaction full-screen along with accompanying sounds and music. |
| 594 | * TakeThat: |
| 595 | ** Him Fabulizing Sarah Jessica Parker into a pair of feet and then saying he barely did any shopping on her. |
| 596 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJ_FYyb0S94 "BARRELS!"]] pokes fun at Music/JustinBieber and at his haters (essentially). |
| 597 | ** One to [=YouTube=] in his "Teach Me Senpai" video; one of the suggestions is to show how to get lots of subs, so he purposely and hilariously overreacts to a ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys2'' JumpScare as we see his sub count increase exponentially the longer he overreacts. |
| 598 | *** Doubles (maybe) as a TakeThatCritics, since one of his selling points used to be screaming at everything. |
| 599 | * TakeThatAudience: In his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvKNyQvBG40 Miley Cyrus: Twerk Ball]] video. |
| 600 | -->'''Pewdie''': You clicked on a video called "Miley's Twerk Ball". (SarcasticClapping) Congratulations, you must be bored out of your fucking mind. |
| 601 | * TemptingFate: He does it all the time when playing horror games, and a JumpScare will happen virtually on cue moments later. |
| 602 | -->[[LampshadeHanging "We're good. No...no, I should never say we're good, 'cause then we're always fucked."]] |
| 603 | ** In Part 4 of Paranormal. ''What else can happen?'' Something else happens. |
| 604 | ** In ''VideoGame/CorpseParty'', as he is playing the Ayumi and Yoshiki section of Chapter 4, he hopes he won't reach a Wrong End. [[spoiler: He does.]] |
| 605 | *** [[spoiler: At the time, however, he was actually begging for that to be the case.]] |
| 606 | * ThatCameOutWrong: During a video on ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' with [[WebVideo/CutiePieMarzia Marzia]], Franchise/{{Kirby}} (Marzia's character) eats [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Link]] (Pewds' character), causing Marzia to exclaim "You came in my mouth!" She then realises what she said and [[{{Corpsing}} starts laughing]] while Pewds looks awkward. |
| 607 | * TheScapegoat: Barrels and statues are not always the cause of Pewdie's misfortune, but always get hated and blamed for everything with passion. |
| 608 | * ThinkingOutLoud: Unlike most Let's Players, Pewdie says everything that comes to mind. |
| 609 | * ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: He uses this a lot but none more so than his diss track against Creator/TSeries called "[[https://youtu.be/6Dh-RL__uN4 Bitch Lasagna]]". |
| 610 | * TitleDrop: The title of each of his episodes are usually dropped somewhere in the episode. |
| 611 | * TooDumbToLive: |
| 612 | ** Occasionally crosses into this territory with particularly obvious blunders, resulting in near (in-game) death. Especially bad when he ignores text on the screen telling him what to do, then complains about being lost. |
| 613 | *** In particular, his ''SCP: Containment Breach'' Let's Play where he ignores the sheet of paper he picks up near the beginning telling him that SCP-173 moves when he blinks. The information's even highlighted. |
| 614 | ** When playing ''Cat Mario'', Pewdie has a tendency to try moves and strategies over and over again... even after they're shown to be ineffective when used the first five or so times. |
| 615 | * TooMuchInformation: Piggeh is never too ashamed to tell Pewdie about his post-death coitus. |
| 616 | * TrollingTranslator: |
| 617 | ** Often done when he [[FunWithSubtitles decides to caption]] his Swedish curses. |
| 618 | ** In [[http://youtu.be/Sy5ewcG8paw "Useful Swedish words that you should know.."]], Pewds teaches that the phrase "Vill du hångla?" means "Do you want to dance?" and encourages viewers to say it to any Swedish person they meet. [[spoiler:It actually means "Do you want to make out?"]]. |
| 619 | * TropeyComeHome: During part 4 of Pewdiepie's ''Minecraft'' Let's Play, he discovered a washed-up pirate ship filled with loot. When Pewds came back to where Joergen was he found the horse was nowhere to be seen. While this was the second time Pewds had found his horse had gone, this was the first time he wasn't able to find Joergen quickly. Pewds spent a full in-game day trying to find Joergen to no avail. Eventually he found Joergen, still having no idea where he disappeared to. The episode ends with Pewds losing Joergen [[RuleOfThree once again]]. It turns out that [[spoiler: due to a glitch, disembarking from a horse causes it to disappear and remain invisible. Pewds later figured out how to deal with this glitch to his relief, but sadly [[ShootTheShaggyDog Pewds would lose Joergen coming home from the Nether not too long after.]]]] |
| 620 | * TrouserSpace: {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d during a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MvqOQ87z-Y play]] of ''{{VideoGame/Bully}}'' in which for some reason he decided to control Jimmy in his underwear delivering a package during an Errand: "Where the fuck would I keep this package? ... [[AssShove I put it inside my asshole]]! That's disgustingly nice." |
| 621 | [[/folder]] |
| 622 | [[folder:U-Y]] |
| 623 | * UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Pewdie's rendition of the Irresponsible Dad from ''VideoGame/HappyWheels'' is a homophobic, abusive, uncaring {{Jerkass}}. ''Yet everything he says is hilarious.'' |
| 624 | * UnusualDysphemism: |
| 625 | ** He likes saying "penis" in place of random words. |
| 626 | ** There is no color called red; only period. |
| 627 | ** One was lampshaded in a ''Rise of Nightmares'' video. |
| 628 | --->'''Pewds:''' I'm so fucking sweaty I could eat a diarrhea. [[LampshadeHanging That doesn't even make sense]]. |
| 629 | * UrineTrouble: |
| 630 | ** In ''TIME FOR REVENGE!'', as one version of Pewds eats soup, his mother [[spoiler:(who isn't even his actual mom)]] tells him that she peed in the soup. |
| 631 | ** The new [=PewDiePie=] backpack is advertised as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl3fVUzXAj4 being able to prevent strangers from pissing on you]]. |
| 632 | ** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJi0s_oLivw TOAD SHITS ON ME!!]]" is really Self-Explanatory. |
| 633 | ---> "Here's a little pro-tip to you: If your toad starts making fart noises, abort mission." |
| 634 | * VictoryIsBoring: Being ranked as the number one most subscribed channel multiple times in a row exhausted Felix's passion for [=YouTube=], he still enjoys making videos but he modified his channel by adding new forms of content in order to prevent personal burnout and stagnation. Felix and his editor, Brad, admitted that they have both given up on making good quality videos because the videos get insulted either way and they have lost their ambition with the channel. |
| 635 | * VideoGameCrueltyPotential: |
| 636 | ** He's quite abusive towards his Mokos in ''VideoGame/{{Pulse}}''. One example: |
| 637 | ---> ''(after leaving one of his Mokos to be killed)'' "Nice going, Lisa! Are you angry? Hey, Lisa, I didn't mean to throw you away." ''(monster comes back)'' "OH SHIT I'M SORRY EAT LISA!" ''(Lisa dies)'' |
| 638 | ** Who could forget his [[BlackComedy hilarious abuse]] of Irresponsible Dad's son in ''VideoGame/HappyWheels''? |
| 639 | * ViolationOfCommonSense: |
| 640 | ** During his ''VideoGame/CryOfFear'' playthrough: |
| 641 | ---> "Should I really go down here? I don't think it's a good idea... but let's do it anyway!" |
| 642 | ** Stephano frequently warns Pewdie that looking back never works in ''Amnesia''. And immediately after he warns Pewdie, [[TooDumbToLive guess what Pewdie does]]? |
| 643 | * VisualPun: |
| 644 | ** In "HOW TO SMILE!", Pewds lists "foot tattoos" as one of the Little Reasons to Smile. We then see a close-up of Pewds' face, and then it zooms out to show an actual drawing of a foot on his forehead. He then says [[LampshadeHanging "I don't get it."]] |
| 645 | ** In "8 MILLION BROS!", one Pewdie says how much he loves playing ''VideoGame/CandyCrushSaga''. Another Pewdie says how much he loves crushing candy (with a hammer). |
| 646 | ** At the end of "YOUTUBE COPYING!", Pewdie is shown copying...with a copier. |
| 647 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Pewdie and his dog Edgar. He dedicates many a tweet alternating between how he thinks Edgar is a demon sent to make his life a living hell and how much he loves him nonetheless. |
| 648 | * VomitIndiscretionShot: Downplayed in the disgusting bean challenge, where Pewds doesn't actually vomit but goes regurgitate..something. |
| 649 | * WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: "Chair Mode Activated. Boop." However, due to various invocations of ArtificialStupidity, this sometimes turns into HeartIsAnAwesomePower, like in ''VideoGame/AoOni'', where Chair Mode kills either Pewdie or the Oni, depending on whether or not Pewdie is in the room. |
| 650 | * WhatTheHellPlayer: What we are greeted with in his ''Miley Cyrus' Twerk Ball'' video. |
| 651 | -->"You clicked on a video called "Miley's Twerk Ball". (''SarcasticClapping'') Congratulations, you must be bored out of your fucking mind." |
| 652 | * WholesomeCrossdresser: Videos like "Harlem Shake FAIL" and some "Fridays With [=Pewdiepie=]" have involved him in womens' underwear. |
| 653 | * WordSaladTitle: His name. The "[=PewDie=]" part breaks down thusly; the ''pew'' is an onomatopoeia of a gun going off in a video game, after which someone presumably ''die''s. He started an account going as just "Pewdie", but forgot the password to it, at which point he decided to add "pie" to the end since he liked pie. |
| 654 | * YankTheDogsChain: In his ''VideoGame/IAmBread'' video (he's playing as the cracker), he struggles to get on top of the table to reach the cheese, and then struggles to remove the lid that the cheese is under. When he finally does, the cracker breaks apart and he gets an F. |
| 655 | * YourSoulIsMine: Said verbatim in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJ_FYyb0S94 "BARRELS!"]] by a [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext demonic Justin Bieber]]. |
| 656 | -->Your soul is mine now, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch!]] |
