There are many funny moments to discover within ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'' that Night City is hiding.

[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder:In General]]
* Johnny's commentary is bitter and sarcastic but sometimes just hilariously petty, like when he talks smack about people he knew in life.
* One of the advertisements is a naked woman with her hands covering her breasts before two dogs. What is it an advertisement for? ''[[CrossesTheLineTwice Dog food]].'' Specifically, the "[[{{Pun}} Bawdy]] Dawg" brand of dog food.
* Prophet Gary ([=YouTuber=] [=CohhCarnage's=] cameo) lists a massive amount of [[ConspiracyTheorist conspiracy theories]], such as how [[VampiresAreRich the Arasaka Corporation are being led by vampires]], that the Militech government is [[Creator/DavidIcke controlled by]] LizardFolk, and [[CloudCuckoolander other lunacy]]. V can argue with him, agree with him, or just ignore him. They can also give a "humble" donation of a single Eurodollar.
** Even better, if you continually talk to him and are friendly it unlocks a new quest. It turns out that he's (technically) right, as V winds up spying on (and eventually gatecrashing) a meeting between a group of [[AxCrazy Maelstrom gangers]] and a "[[TheMenInBlack John and Jane Doe]]", who [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent talk like they're werewolves]] ([[SpySpeak as codephrases]]), with V taking [[NeuralImplanting a microchip]] that's heavily implied to [[MindControlDevice brainwash whoever plugs it in their head]]. This unfortunately results in Gary being "[[AlienAbduction abducted into the Mothership]]" (translate, [[HeKnowsTooMuch getting black-bagged by whichever corp that V stole the chip from]] and tossed into the back of an AV) -- this results in one of Gary's followers trying raise money to [[MemorialStatue build a monument to Gary's memory]], at which point [[PetTheDog V can give up to $600 Eddies]] (with the tone of their voice implying they're paying not necessarily for Gary, but because [[ItAmusedMe they found it entertaining as hell to take part in an actual conspiracy]]).
** When V arrives at the meeting place, Johnny shows up to ask whether the people who show up are LizardFolk or [[CyberneticsEatYourSoul Techno]]-{{Necromancer}}s -- V can say Reptilians, {{Unicorn}}s, or [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus "The Spanish Inquisition"]], with Johnny replying to the last one that [[ShoutOut he wasn't expecting that]]. (And as he notes, Maelstrom showing up [[IKnewIt made him right about the techno-necromancers]]).
* One of the news broadcasts will mention that border guards in the Republic of Texas will no longer announce warnings before shooting. Apparently, they were previously required to yell "Fuck off, this is Texas!" before shooting.
* Enemies in ''Cyberpunk 2077'' can actually trip over bodies if they happen to run or stumble across them. It even does a tiny amount of damage!
* The achievement name for collecting all of Johnny's clothing items is [[AscendedMeme Breathtaking]].
* You can ask a particular food vendor if you see [[ReducedToRatburgers a tail in one of his wares]]. He counters that it's a kid's meal, because kids love surprises.
* One of the iconic one-handed club weapons... is a veiny dildo, [[Theatre/HenryIV Sir John Phallustiff]]. It's a highly effective way to nonlethally humiliate foes. It has a vibrator which also manifests as a constant buzz from rumble motors in applicable controllers. Even its first-equip animation ramps up the silliness: V holds it pincer-style by the head, flips it around to catch it by the handle, and taps the head with a cartoony "poink" sound effect with a finger on their off-hand.
* One of the NCPD's wanted posters is for an Animals ganger named Mauler, wanted for "Illegal use of pineapple or pineapple-adjacent products," citing the "Pizza Desecration Act". In other words, [[DisproportionateRetribution putting pineapple on pizza is now worth a bounty on your head]] in 2077.
** What makes this even funnier is that "Tofu'd Tuna and Pineapple Pizza" is a relatively common food item throughout the game. Looks like some things never change, even in the face of such a law.
*** During one of Judy's side quests, she'll ask V what their favourite pizza topping is. One of the options is the aforementioned tuna and pineapple... and it's locked behind a Cool speech check. The implication being that V is simply ''too badass'' to care about being judged for what pizza toppings they like.
* You can witness two street thugs having an altercation over what seems to be a drug deal. One thing leads to another and both go for their guns. They shoot simultaneously and [[MutualKill both end up dead]], leaving V to pick up their guns and cash.
* In one small homeless encampment in Watson you can find an active and very deadly sentry turret surrounded by a few corpses. After you deal with the turret you can loot this archived conversation off one of the bodies:
-->'''Pete:''' after a restart, hold the button on the left side of the panel for 5 sec\\
'''Pete:''' then in the command input, enter: current user /add, ADMIN = YES\\
'''Pete:''' tbh that's it, should be up and running\\
'''Izaiah:''' nova! huge thanks man!!\\
'''Pete:''' Ahhh, wait Izaiah! Big goof on my part there\\
'''Pete:''' you need to tag ACTIVE=YES onto the end of that command or else it'll still read you as hostile\\
'''Pete:''' [[PoorCommunicationKills hope I didn't catch you too late with that one haha]]\\
'''Pete:''' lemme know if it all shakes out alright, ok?\\
'''Pete:''' Z-man...?
* The NCART urban rail system inexplicably services [[TheCityNarrows Pacifica]] with two lines going to the Pacifica Stadium station. The automated "next station" announcement states point blank that people getting off there are doing so at their own peril - and since it's the terminus station and you ''have to'' get off there, it comes off as a passive aggressive callout.

[[folder:Main Story]]
* At one point during your negotiation with Dexter, you can say there's things more important than money. Jackie's reaction is a FlatWhat of disbelief.
* Speaking of Dexter, while he does fail to follow through entirely and turns on you when the Heist goes wrong, he initially drops this gem:
-->'''Dexter:''' S'why y'all why you got a fixer, anyone try to fuck with you, they first gotta fuck their way through Dex Deshawn's three-hundred-pound ass.
* While it comes near the end of the very dramatic and tragic Heist mission, there is something hilarious about Delamain's line of "{{Road block}} ahead" as you and Jackie are trying to get the hell out of Arasaka and their car is facing [[TheDreaded Adam Smasher]] who is currently after them, making it sound as though Delamain considers Adam himself a roadblock instead of the Arasaka security behind them. Then Del turns the car and breaks through the Arasaka fireteams blocking the way out instead.
* After the Johnny flashback where he tries (and fails) to save Alt Cunningham from Arasaka (with him acting like a complete asshole to basically everyone he encounters throughout), the player can open with the dialog option "Wow, you were such a douchbag". What this makes V actually ''say'' is even more lowbrow, childish, and funny: "Wow. Were you going for Dickwipe of the Year?"
* While the quest isn't the most hilarious, Panam's introduction is chuckle worthy. She was so desperate for a ride after hers got stolen she had to boost a family's station wagon from a driveway. Complete with child's booster seat in the back and a full laundry basket.
** The moment where she's checking out its engine, accidentally gets its horn blasting continuously, swears loudly and silences the mechanism by ripping it out to fling it away in a fit of rage is also pretty hilarious.
* While setting up the ambush with Panam to get her stolen car and merch back, you have to break into a building. If you don't have enough body to force the door open, then Panam will tell you to break the window to get in, saying that you won't get a bill since the town is abandoned. Immediately upon climbing though the window, you will be billed 2 eddies.
* While interrogating Anders Hellman, V will ask what's special about the Relic prototype, if there's something about the engram that's special. When V asks if the engram is supposed to be "aggressive" (Johnny instead "asked" if the engram would be "aware"), Hellman denies that there's anything special about the engram in the Relic. The face [[ItsAllAboutMe Johnny]] give to Hellman could be described as an offended raised-eyebrow.
* One of V's options for convincing two dolls to let them and Judy get into Fingers’ clinic ahead of them, provided their Cool stat is high enough, is to act like Judy needs immediate medical attention. Judy wastes no time in faking illness. One of the dolls points out that Judy was perfectly fine seconds ago, but V brushes it off as Judy just acting tough most of the time and they leave with no more questions.
** Alternatively, a V with a high enough Body stat can just pry open the door while Fingers is still in the middle of operating on a patient. He is ''not'' pleased.
** Another option is… just waiting for their turn, to V and Judy's annoyance.
--->'''Doll''' Everybody gotta wait their turn, that's the rule.\\
[…]\\\\
'''Judy''': Finally. Let's just hope three hours of sit-in' on our asses hasn't meant the difference 'tween life and death for her.
* Judy's reaction to V revealing that they have a construct of Johnny Silverhand in their head; a long and impressed-sounding whistle. Johnny himself walking around in the same room as the two unbeknownst to Judy makes it even funnier.
* A funny series of events around Goro and a certain comedian can occur during an early main job:
** When Goro needs to be brought to Wakako Okada, If the player stays back a moment, he runs into an old man who is [[ThoroughlyMistakenIdentity utterly insistent]] that Goro is in fact the TV comedian Hideshi Hino, and keeps insisting that he give his catch phrase. Upon seeing V, Goro is relieved and asks to get going. V can do this...[[TheGadfly or they can ask why "Hideshi" is being so cold to such a good fan.]] Goro is ''thoroughly'' unamused.
** V can continue to egg on Goro, getting the fan riled up too, until Goro finally gives the comedian's catchphrase, shouting "BETTER BUCKLE UP" in a very gravelly voice. V and the fan sit in silence for a moment, before V simply says "Wow..." and the fan begins lamenting [[{{Irony}} how such a great man could fall so low.]] Goro's reaction indicates he was just sick of playing along.
** Upon talking to Wakako, she will ask V who their "handsome companion" is. V can respond appropriately...[[OverlyLongGag or]] can introduce him as "Hideshi Hino; comedian," prompting Goro to growl "Stop it, asshole," under his breath in Japanese.
** Finally, quite some time after this mission, V can come across a poster in Japantown for none other than Hideshi Hino himself. The man ''is'' in fact the spitting image of Goro, and the sight prompts V to begin laughing about it.
** Taken to its logical conclusion in Phantom Liberty during "You Know My Name" when V can meet up and have a small chat with Hideshi Hino himself, even telling him he looks like Goro and Hino saying if Goro wants a job as his body double. V just chuckles and says he'll get back to him on that.
* While staking out an Arasaka facility from a construction site, [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Johnny is lying on his back in the background, bored out of his mind]]. He doesn't say a word the whole time, and once the scene concludes he casually rolls off the edge. An action that would have been suicidal if not for the fact that [[VirtualGhost he's not actually there]].
* While working with Goro Takemura, he sends V a coded text in the form of a metaphor. V doesn't understand it (or just makes fun of Goro's SpySpeak antics), prompting Goro to become annoyed at how unrefined V is.
** If you pick the wrong response in this message line (something along the lines of "You're gonna 'show yourself'?"), Takemura sarcastically texts that there's an American saying that he's trying to remember, remembers it, and tells V to [[PrecisionFStrike go fuck themselves]] in all-caps. A day later, Takemura follows up by apologizing to V for exploding like that.
** Later on Takemura tries to do some net searches, but messes up and ends up texting V instead. His primary question is where he can find a half-decent restaurant in Japan Town, specifically one with "tasty ramen". Attempt to help him by pointing him to a sushi place in Watson and he says that eating Night City sushi seems questionable, almost ''[[SeriousBusiness disrespectful]]'' to his ancestors.
** Despite being so ridiculously formal for the most part while texting, as he softens up he occasionally sends more informal ones like a very awkward selfie or a cat emoji. Coming from [[TheComicallySerious him]], it's all the better.
--->'''Goro:''' ^._.^
* While V and Takemura are preparing for the dashi parade, they meet at a street food stand in Japantown to discuss their next steps. Takemura, being the pampered Japanese nationalist he is, is thoroughly disgusted by the food he's served and refuses to eat any of it. V has the same dish on their plate and can make a point of ignoring Takemura's questions in favor of nonverbally rubbing in his face how much they're enjoying their meal.
* In the Don't Fear the Reaper ending, when V storms Arasaka Tower, Johnny will kick things off with a nice PreAssKickingOneLiner... Before almost immediately going into a T-Pose as V fights Arasaka's security and turning his line into a NarmCharm. A definite bug, but [[GoodBadBugs potentially quite the hilarious one.]]
-->'''Johnny Silverhand:''' ''Time to party like it's 2023.''
* During the final mission, if you let Johnny take over and bring along Rogue you'll eventually find a terminal where you can adjust a number of settings about the indoor forest. Including uploading music, which -- this being Johnny -- means "Chippin' In". When Rogue complains about your gigantic ego showing, she isn't even angry, just resigned to this absurd mess actually happening.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Side Quests]]
* One side-quest involves [[WebVideo/JesseCox a pantsless man named Jesse]] with a malfunctioning (read: on fire!) penis implant screaming in agony as he begs you to take him to a ripper. The trip has multiple obstacles, including a dozen children crossing the street[[note]]which [[EveryoneHasStandards V will stop and insist on waiting for]], even if the player continues holding the gas[[/note]], trucks blowing through a stop sign, and police blocking off the road.
-->'''Jesse:''' Hey...listen...thanks for not laughing at me. Appreciate it.\\
'''V:''' It ain't easy, I’ll tell you that.\\
'''Jesse:''' Fuck you.
** Even funnier? His contact picture is a peeled banana, and his name in your contact list is "Flaming Crotch Man". You have to wonder if he identified himself as that so that V would instantly recognize him.
** For BlackComedy, if he doesn't reach the clinic in time, the quest will fail as his lower body outright explodes. Yes, [[UndignifiedDeath death by exploding penis implant.]]
* An ''Epistrophy'' side mission involves V trying to talk somebody out of [[DrivenToSuicide hurling themselves off a bridge]]. Normally, this wouldn't be funny at all, except the "somebody" in this case is a [[SentientVehicle sentient taxi]]. Who then tells V that [[CrossesTheLineTwice psychologists HATE vehicles because]] [[AllPsychologyIsFreudian they don't have mothers]].
** In another, V asks what's got the car's AI so paranoid and afraid. As it turns out, that particular AI is scared of lawn flamingos (apparently believing that they're screaming) and refuses to return to Delamain until they are gone. And yes, this does mean badass merc V will have to locate lawn flamingos and smash them. Said AI also insists on being called "Clarice" and makes a number of references to ''Literature/SilenceOfTheLambs''. V even gets in on the fun after destroying enough flamingos:
--->'''V:''' Well, Clarice? Have the flamingos stopped screaming?
** Another is happily careening around like a lunatic and calls V just to scream "Beep beep, motherfucker!" In fact, this very car is the one who wrecks V's automobile and subsequently leads them to Delamain's side quest in the first place.
** And then there's the [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} GLaDOS]] personality in Pacifica...
* The "Sweet Dreams" side mission. Falling for a fairly transparent 'vintage' BD scam where you blackout and wakeup in a Scav Hideout soon to be stripped for parts? Terrifying and mildly depressing. Waking up to Johnny sarcastically highlighting how you just grabbed the IdiotBall big-time and discovering you've been brought to the exact same Scav Hideout you smashed up in Act 1, now littered with notes complaining about you and Jackie's rampage? Actually pretty funny.
** Also [[OhCrap scaring the pants off the BD seller who sold you out]] when you turn up again alive and very angry? Priceless.
** Even funnier? This quest is triggered by completion of "I Fought The Law", which can involve V putting on a random BD headset—which turns out to be spiked with a virus that almost kills them as it had Mayor Rhyne.
** Demonstrating that V refuses to learn this lesson, the Edgerunners tie-in quest begins with finding a discarded BD wreath in a trashcan next to the logo, and just deciding to stick it on your head. Cue the same XBD that David starts the series watching, and V ending up face down on the pavement in shock. Seriously, what is it with V and the instinct to dive into braindances of dubious origin?
* In "I Fought the Law", Two Tyger Claws who are on less-than-pleasant terms with River show up to harass him and V. River tells V to let him handle it, which is the only right decision. But choosing either option otherwise will likely result in fight with River having to make a report afterwards.
** V can bluntly tell the "kitty claws" to fuck off.
** V choosing to simply interject makes the Claws to order them to jump. There's no prompt for it, but V can ''actually jump'' and the Claws will leave (with V's dignity!). Not jumping results in a blood bath.
* While examining a braindance for clues, V hears the name of a club, "Red Queen's Race", and wonders aloud what that might be. Johnny chimes in with an awful impression of a British accent to exclaim that it's somewhere with "a bunch of britfarts shouting 'Off with their heads!'" [[SarcasmMode Very helpful, Mr. Rockerboy.]] V isn't so amused with Johnny:
-->'''V:''' ''(exasperated)'' You know, you're allowed to say you don't have a clue.
* In "Following the River", River's sister Joss will express a romantic interest in male V by asking about his relationship status. Cue River coming up with an excuse to get V the hell out of there. If V is a female...then Joss not-so-subtly tries to...ah...[[ShipperOnDeck encourage]] V and River to get closer, to which V can awkwardly deflect or play along completely. In this case, River will make his exit with V when the topic of babies comes up.
** The game you play with the kids also has the kids adorably sending up pretty much every cop-movie trope under the sun.
** A rather dark shade of comical due to the health implications, but the pack of rice you're sent to pick up for River's jambalaya has a quality rating of "add spices liberally".
* If you choose to have sex with River, the sequence contains a good amount of him and/or V trying not to [[InterruptedIntimacy get caught,]] being in a trailer park. After some bystanders see them outside, they head into one of the trailers, sneak past where River's niece and nephew are sleeping, and finally get down to it... and whenever they make a noise, they look over to the door in worry, and V keeps covering River's mouth. It's downright comedic compared to the more straightforward sex scenes with all the other romantic interests.
** After the post-sex scene between a female V and her male romance partner, River (who happens to be a police officer), Johnny's first words are filled with disgust— [[AmbiguouslyBi not because River's a man]], but because he's a ''[[CopHater cop]]''.
--->'''Johnny:''' Christ, V. Can't believe you're makin' me fuck a cop. [[BrainBleach Gonna go plug my ears, gouge out my eyes]].
* Speaking of River, the pickup line he uses on V to initiate a romantic relationship is so bad that it prompts V to recount the [[CringeComedy only lines she got in her life that were even worse]]. They're "The way you swallow? Beautiful!"[[note]]Said by a guy who was ogling her in a diner.[[/note]], "I'll fuck you for free!"[[note]]Said by whom V desribes as "a gigilo in a teckmink fedora" that she was hired to squeeze for info; apparently he just blurted that out in the middle of spilling.[[/note]] and "Here I am. You've got two wishes left".[[note]]Said by a guy who sidled up to V at a bar and tapped her on the shoulder; V's second wish was that he would "Fuck off"; Her third was a speedy recovery for the broken arm recieved after he didn't get the hint.[[/note]] They're both having a blast with it even if V chooses to gently reject his advances.
** Meanwhile, if you pick the alternate dialogue path, V instead [[https://twitter.com/gaycodedriku/status/1482614707987099649 details]] their most disastrous relationships— which includes dating a guy who could only get off if V wore masks of U.S. presidents when they had sex.
--->'''V:''' Had to dump him. Could only fuck Honest Abe so many times.
** Funny enough on its own is that "Honest Abe" was the one guy she was actually ''falling in love'' with. The other two relationships ended, respectively, when V shattered the man's jaw after [[BedroomAdulteryScene finding him in bed with another woman]] and when she sent him on a skydiving trip for his birthday--and he never came back. Not that he ''died'' mind you, he just ''dumped V for his skydiving instructor.''
** In the inverse, if a male-V attempts to kiss River, he objects, citing that [[IncompatibleOrientation he doesn't swing that way]]. The two of them then just kinda [[CringeComedy awkwardly stammer]] and seemingly decide to LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain.
* The sex scene with Panam involves the two linking together with the Basilisk's BrainComputerInterface and, noticing how it linked their minds, decide to [[AutoErotica get frisky in the cockpit]]. Just as they're about to hit their climax, however, [[CoitusInterruptus the Wraiths attack, forcing them to hurriedly start up the tank and go to town on the Wraiths instead.]]
* While the tone shifts sharply later on, the early parts of Joshua Stephenson's quest line are hilarious purely because everything gets turned on its head almost immediately and everyone involved refuses to tell V what is going on. Especially since Johnny is revelling in pure PassThePopcorn mode at how bizarre it is. Johnny's [[ClusterFBomb final analysis]] when you finally find out what's actually happening qualifies on its own.
-->''He's fucked in the head, the world's fucked in the head—and you're fucked in the head 'cause MY fucked-up head is inside it. Guess if you want to save the world, that's the first step: get fucked in the head.''
* When looking through Kerry's mansion, one of the members of Samurai back in the day, Johnny will snark at just about everything about his life following his success away from Samurai... unless you happen to take a look at his car: A [[CoolCar Rayfield Aerondight "Guinevere"]]. Not even Johnny can take a jab at a car that sexy. The name [[MythologyGag Aerondight]] is also the name of a sword Geralt can possibly attain in each of the Witcher games.
-->'''Johnny:''' ''({{beat}})'' …All right, I'll give him that one.
* In the mission "A Like Supreme", if V chooses to take the optional dialogue options with Denny, she'll eventually admit that despite him being a bastard, she does miss Johnny and remarks that playing the gig won't be the same without him. Upon hearing it, Johnny will grab his belt, puff out his chest, and smirk to himself; dude's so self-absorbed that even ''being missed'' is apparently a point of pride for him.
** Further amusement occurs when V asks Nancy if Kerry always gets this temperamental, and she says it's mild compared to ''Johnny's'' tantrums back in the day. Johnny's response is a wordless, hilariously offended look, as if anyone criticising him comes as a total shock.
* During the late-game quest "Rebel! Rebel!" with Kerry, when the van with Us Cracks' concert gear is about to hit the spike strip, Johnny decides to be cheeky and renders himself standing right in the van's path. He would have been run over... if he weren't just a [[VirtualGhost figment in V's head]].
** Also from "Rebel! Rebel!" is Johnny's reaction to Kerry subsequently blowing up the van (with a little help from V).
--->'''Johnny:''' [[AmbiguouslyBi Fuck me, Kerry.]]
* The quest ''Raymond Chandler Evening'' is a serious sidequest about a friendly bar owner wondering if his wife is cheating on him, since his son looks nothing like his father. As it turns out, it's because the wife changed her appearance through swapping chrome so the son looks nothing like her, rather than him. But during the whole tailing part of the quest, Johnny narrates it as a film noir, complete with slang. Not only that, he's clearly hamming it up, and V can only get more and more frustrated. Fortunately, the tailing here is very simple to do without messing up, so it's easier to enjoy Johnny messing with V.
-->'''Johnny:''' The dame disappeared into the guts of a building ready to collapse. The air hung heavy with smog and betrayal.\\
'''V:''' Ugh. Maybe it's ''a good thing'' I'm dying.
* During the quest ''Second Conflict'', you go to extract reporter Nancy from the Maelstrom bar, where she's days overdue trying to put together a story on their house band. Depending on how your Act 1 encounter with them went, she's either taking so long because Brick is in charge and doesn't give enough of a shit about things like musical theory to give her anything coherent, or because Royce is still in charge and he's so passionate and opinionated on the topic that he hasn't shut up for that entire time.
** There's also this exchange provided Royce is still alive, where he'll eloquently express his opinion on rockerboy music:
--->'''V:''' ''(to Nancy)'' Kerry Eurodyne sent me.\\
'''Nancy:''' ''(to Royce)'' Ah, Eurodyne, 'course. Uh, where would you put him on the musical m-\\
'''Royce:''' Y'know what happens when you filter all the pulp and shit out of juice? Gets clean, smooth, soft. Flies off the shelves in corpo supermarkets. And what's it look like? Piss, that's what. ''That's'' about where I'd put rockerboy music.
* After meeting up with the remaining members of Samurai, you can take a job from Bes Isis the news agent, aka Nancy Hartley the keyboardist for Samurai, to track down any information you can about Swedenborg-Riviera. Swedenborg-Riviera is a radical anti-capitalist posting on message boards anonymously with no apparent trail back to his actual location. His messages have gotten people riled up enough to firebomb banks and plot acts of corporate espionage. Funny happens include:
** Accusing Johnny of being jealous because Night City's wannabe anarchist population is quoting Swedenborg instead of him.
** Johnny's increasing disdain for the whole affair and assertions you're being taken on a ride bouncing from access point to access point in increasingly remote locations. He speculates that it's just drawing a big dick on a map.
** And the final revelation that the whole thing was a troll by some unknown hacker who tampered with an automated fortune teller machine by swapping out its mystical nonsense lexicon for anti-capitalist nonsense then hooking it up to the internet. Even Johnny couldn't possibly be any happier with the results.
** For an epilogue, V, with a high-enough Intelligence stat, can tamper with it even more and crank its nonsense up to eleven to set the EpilepticTrees guessing in the Bartmoss Collective over the top. Really, at that point calling it "nonsense" would be charitable; where before you could mistake it for profound if you tried, V's meddling starts it spouting stuff like "'''You are as clever as a cow'''," and "'''Without pants there is no innovation'''." And the Collective treats them equally seriously.
* In the optional side mission "Chippin In", V agrees to let Johnny take control for a little while, but only so he can get an old friend's help by explaining the situation to them. Once he's in control Johnny instead goes on a wild drug and alcohol-fuelled joyride in V's body, culminating in him getting a tattoo on V's hand. He ''does'' speak to the friend like he promised; he just needed to "get into character" first.
** Also, the tattoo? It can be either a billy goat or a cupid heart with "Johnny + V" written in it.
*** On a meta level it can be hilarious for those who chose the billy goat tattoo specifically because they were afraid that "the other one" was going to be a dick, which is a very valid concern, knowing Johnny.
* Many of the interactions between V and Skippy are funny. For example, when Skippy is about to give you a user report and asks you to say anything to continue, you can respond with [[LiteralMinded "anything"]].
-->'''Skippy:''' It looks like you are trying to be funny. Automated response: [[SarcasmMode Ha ha ha. I never heard that one before]].
** And when you ask him why you can't kill more than fifty people with Skippy:
--->'''Skippy:''' The fuck is wrong with you? Please go see a therapist, you psycho.
* Skippy in general is entertaining and a clear nod to the Microsoft mascot Clippy. The gun projects a hologram of an anthropomorphic bullet with an uncanny grin and constantly misunderstands V's sarcasm and bewilderment at a talking gun. It also has two settings: [[PacifistRun 'Puppy-Loving Pacifist']] or 'Stone Cold Killer'.
* During the side quest "Losing My Religion", Johnny makes a sarcastic remark about "crossing your legs and meditating until they drop dead" towards V, who will reply, "I wish ''you’d'' drop dead." Johnny, being Johnny, doesn't take it personally; he merely flips V the bird, who has the option of flipping him one back. Not to be outdone, Johnny then gives V a double bird with a grin on his face.
* ''Big in Japan'' has you working with Dennis Cramer, a particularly shady under-the-table type (seeing as how he's urgently trying to ''avoid'' using fixers in Night City) moving a package ([[spoiler:a prominent surgeon]]) into town. Except of course, he didn't tell V this, and when V calls to complain he indicates that ''of course'' the package isn't what it sounds like.
--> '''Dennis:''' If it was a box of bananas, I'd have used the post office! I have a car waiting. Coordinates are on your GPS.
** Funnier still, when V complains about the lack of details, Dennis ditches him mid-call. Of all the things that happen in Night City, it's ''this'' that provokes a reaction of surprise out of V.
--->'''V:''' Dennis, hey wait! ...Asshole hung up on me.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Gigs]]
* The "Flight of the Cheetah" gig will have you meet Hwangbo Dong-Gun, who will proudly claim his given street name as being "Cheetah" due to his alleged speed. You have the option to either [[DeadpanSnarker sarcastically play along]], or have V flatly tell him [[https://twitter.com/kia_pardo/status/1382166845675945984?s=21 "Nobody calls you that."]]
** As you escort him during the gig, he suggests that V get themselves a street name too, calling them "Furious Lion(ess)". This is somewhat in the face of the fact that "V" '''''is''''' their street name, their real name being a personal secret they share with few if any.
* The gig "Psychofan" is hilarious from start to finish and gives an opportunity to look at Johnny's past and have him reminisce about it.
** Each Samurai poster V can inspect will prompt Johnny to recall the particular show, except for the one from April 2007 which he can't remember at all. V chalks it up to years of sponging up vodka. Johnny immediately snaps back…but not in the way you'd think:
--->'''Johnny:''' Let's get one thing straight, [[ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne I never touched vodka.]] Bourbon, whiskey, and tequila - that was my crowd.
** Special mention goes to Johnny's commentary about the July 2004 show:
--->'''Johnny:''' Piss-poor acoustics, that place. Lighting came a close second. Grub was the worst.\\
'''Johnny:''' 'Course, the chicks made up for that. Best pussy I ever ate.
** Even before the gig begins, Padre's description of it is hilarious, largely because of the opening:
---> ''There was this band in the 20's, Samurai, maybe you've heard of them -- talentless bunch of angsty, skezzed out kids who thought they were actually making music. For some reason, people nowadays still listen to them. One more reason why this world's going to shit and the end times are near.''
** There's also a shard containing terribly-written in-universe Johnny/Kerry yaoi fanfiction. It really [[https://cyberpunk.fandom.com/wiki/Fanfiction:_An_Omelet_of_Passion has to be seen to be believed.]] A second part of the same fanfic can be found in ''Phantom Liberty'' and is just as hilariously bad.
** The personal laptop of Gaston (the titular psychofan) contains a mail exchange between him and a plastic surgery clinic. Gaston wants his face altered to that of his idol Kerry Eurodyne but is told that Kerry's face is copyrighted and he has ''very'' aggressive lawyers. A later mail exchange with an underground clinic runs into the problem that they can't send sample pics over the net...they get taken down by Kerry's copyright protection. Washed-up relic he may be, but Kerry Eurodyne is still a step or two ahead of the crazies.
* In the gig "Jeopardy", Padre tasks you to recover a datashard out of a dead courier's head. The courier's body lays next to the cellar incinerator of a funeral parlor that's run by the Valentinos (partly for discrete corpse disposal). During the gig, a funeral is going on, with a full-body holo-image of the deceased as part of the display. If you're packing a Cyberdeck, you can hack the holo-image (which is of a man by the way) to start doing a lascivious dance to the horrors of the attendees. This is also practical because it distracts a Valentino guard away from a door that leads to the Employees Only areas you need to get to.
* In gig "Playing For Keeps", two Tyger Claws can be overheard talking about gambling. One doesn't like roulette because the odds of winning are terrible, and the other guy doesn't understand. [[ArtisticLicenseStatistics He says that either you win or you lose, so the odds are always 50:50]]...meaning, he doesn't actually know how gambling works ''at all''. The first guy bluntly tells the other he needs to stop smelling glue.
* In the ''Occupational Hazard'' gig, you need to rescue Hal Cantos from a cyberpsycho in a warehouse. When you knock on the container he's hiding in, he tells you to deal with her first before you even think of trying to get him out. [[{{Troll}} You can tell him that it's safe to come out even if you didn't.]] Needless to say, he's ''very'' unamused when he opens the door.
* In one post-gig log collectible, a maelstrom ganger is panicking about the integrity of his hardware. His buddy responds with an extremely articulate and proofread customer service message that segues back into gang-speak insulting him for worrying about the warranty on ''bootleg hardware''.

[[folder:''Phantom Liberty'']]
* ''Phantom Liberty'' features the Quadra Sport R-7 "Vigilante" as a PreOrderBonus, which wouldn't be funny enough on its own; what's funny is ''how'' the game justifies giving you the car after finishing Act 1...which is by playing the classic "you won a lottery that you never actually entered in" scam text ''completely legit.'' V's confusion can become very evident rather quickly, yet the clearly automated sender just blows off everything with the same boilerplate "thanks for the feedback and congrats on your new car" message...and then once the convo wraps up [[RealAfterAll you get the car to use.]]
* The side quest ''Waiting for Dodger'' shows two absolutely incompetent dirty cops named Bill and Charles that V must rescue from a drug drop in a former police station overtaken by Dodger, a high-ranking member of BARGHEST. When you arrive, you quickly find out the ''downright cartoonish'' shenanigans that led the duo to this situation. Put simply, the two cops learned that a drug addict had stolen seven ounces of powerful drugs from Dodger. The two cops find the addict, and bring him to Dodger's base with the drugs. With the addict in an interrogation room, ''uncuffed(!)'', Charles drops the seven ounce bag on the table directly in front of the addict. The addict promptly screams ''"fuck you, pigs!"'' and swallows the entire seven ounce bag. Unfortunately, the bag bursts, and the perp dies of an overdose on the spot. Panicking, the two cops hurriedly disembowel the perp on the interrogation room's table and cut him open in hopes of saving the drugs, getting blood all over both themselves and the room. However, they fail to consider that since perp just overdosed, the drugs are already dissolved, and thus there was no saving the drugs anyway; effectively, they gutted him and covered themselves in blood ''for absolutely nothing''. So with a disemboweled perp in the middle of Dodger's base and ''zero'' drugs to show for it, Bill and Charles naturally believe they're ''screwed'', and Bill calls his wife and begs her to send for help, who hires V to go and rescue them. It is such a ''ludicrous'' story that should you tell the truth to Dodger when he shows up, he promptly ''laughs his ass off'' and, provided you didn't kill his men, is perfectly willing to ''let them go unharmed'' because he considers ''a story like that'' to be well worth the lost product in exchange. Suffice to say, it's absolutely played for laughs and is a very lighthearted sidequest in an otherwise dark DLC.
** And really, just about everything out of Bill and Charles' mouths during this quest are golden
--->'''Bill:''' Maybe he had like a...''protein chute'' implant. A deep, wide throat.\\
'''Charles:''' Yeah, [[YourMom like the kind your mom's got]]. ''The'' '''''fuck''''' ''are you'' '''''talking about''''', ''Bill?''
** The whole gig is an artistic display of incompetence on the part of the two dimwitted police officers. During the course of the action, they show off such things as arguing over an access code to locked doors, accidentally dropping items off a shelf near Dodger's men, and potentially - if the player is unlucky - hitting V with a police car just before the gig ends. No wonder, V has absolutely had enough by the very end of the quest.
--->'''V:''' Let me put this way - this is the last time I do for a gig for the badges.
* V, who has likely used holo-phones and texts their entire life, [[LostCommonKnowledge can't seem to figure out how to use a landline phone in the year 2077]]. Johnny helps them out with an amused grin on his face.
* V has a gun against their body by Solomon Reed, whom they cannot see. If [[AskAStupidQuestion you ask Johnny what the guy looks like]], he actually makes to look, before looking at V and telling them he can't actually see him; as an engram in V's head, Johnny can only see what V sees.
* When driving back to the hotel with Reed to see Myers, he tells V that he's been working undercover in Night City as a bouncer. What's funny about this is that CD Projekt Red went the extra mile with that detail: if you were to enter Electric Orgasm (Dino Dinovic's bar in Downtown Night City) before contacting Reed in Phantom Liberty's campaign... ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2KzD4lV5uA you can actually find Reed working there]]'', in casual clothes and everything. Even scanning him brings up his affiliation as "classified"!
* While escorting President Myers through the abandoned tunnels, your path will be blocked at one point by a steam leak which the game [[SchmuckBait gives you the option to touch]]. Doing so causes enough damage to take off roughly a quarter of your hit points, and prompts a hilariously deadpan "Ouch" from V.
* If you take the Secret Service Oath, Johnny not only hilariously and non-verbally mocks you during the oath, but in the elevator afterward, he tells you in no uncertain terms that taking it was a bad idea in the elevator afterward. After telling you that you were "due a chewing-out", he does a salute, then makes a gun gesture to his head and "pulls the trigger" with an audible BANG, falling over.
* After getting caught by Hansen in the Black Sapphire during "You Know My Name", a BARGHEST soldier in the lobby rudely demands for you and Reed to get out of the building. Normally, your two primary options for a response have V either quietly go along with it or make a subtle threat that's deterred by Reed, but a ''[[CorporateSamurai Corpo]]'' V, who usually has the more levelheaded, business-minded options of the three Lifepaths, has the opportunity to just perform a ''very'' loud PrecisionFStrike in response... [[RefugeInAudacity which completely stuns the soldier]] to the point where [[VerbalBackspace he immediately rephrases his instructions]] into something ''far'' more polite.
* [[https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/16y4xjw/shit_grounds_fucking_hot/ V tries to comfort Reed]]. Keyword being ''tries'':
-->'''V:''' Listen-\\
''(Kneels on the hot desert ground, yanking their hand back and shaking it the second they touch it)''\\
'''V:''' ''[[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome Shit, ground's fuckin' hot!]]''
* The entire Dazed and Confused gig. Where a middle aged overweight man has been stuck believing that he's a popular porn star. For various reasons, you bring him in contact with the real star, and the result is something straight out of The Three Christs of Ypsilanti.
* Bennett's PA announcements leave much to be desired, especially compared to the suave Hansen's. His [[NoIndoorVoice complete lack of voice modulation]], the pregnant-to-the-point-of-absurdity pauses he hits when he runs into a word he doesn't know or understand, and so forth would be adorkable if he also wasn't a lunatic.
* V is contacted by Ashlay, a netrunner for Charon Exotics, the rental company V hacked to find the Cassel twins. Because the hack happened on Ashlay's watch, they want all record of the car's existence wiped from Charon's databases so they can keep their job. To do this, V has to descend deep into Barghest territory and sneak through a garage full of soldiers to get to the car. Ashlay's contribution to this mission is to spam V's inbox with texts in the middle of sneaking sections and even tells V to wait a minute because ''the pizza they'd ordered just arrived''.
* One of the targets for Muamar's car theft jobs is a Makigai [=MaiMai=] microcar...which you find being used as an improvised bumper car by some gangers. It's slow, tiny and very prone to oversteering, resulting in some of the silliest car chases ever seen in Night City.
* Most Dogtown airdrops are full of goodies. At least once, however, you'll find one that lands completely unguarded. It contains two Slaught-O-Matics (the disposable guns worth 100 eddies each), a studded dildo junk item, and a note from the guy who filled the airdrop saying "WHERE'S MY MONEY!?"
