* The higher ups of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza aren't above shoving googly eyes and string arms to inanimate, everyday items, and calling them new characters. Vacuum cleaner? It's a character now. Frying pan? Tie it into a wooden body and draw it a face. One such character is literally a ''milk crate'' with eyes and foam fingers!

to:

* The first catalog you can buy things to add to your pizzeria is given the rather unflattering name of "Dumpster Diver Weekly", and it lives up to that title by hosting some things to purchase that are so low quality you can't help but laugh:

* Although it can be considered NightmareFuel, the insanity ending can be darkly humorous when one considers that after the new manager happens to stumble across random three blueprints and a recording with zero context whatsoever, the company decides HeKnowsTooMuch, fires him, claims he's insane so that no one would believe him, and then sends him off to an asylum to get him lobotomized[[note]]"Lobotomy? You hardly know me!"[[/note]]. Overreaction, much?

** It's possible for all items to be marked down, including Lefty, for an increased risk. What's notable about this is that not only is this state of the art animatronic being sold for ''one US dollar'', the maximum risk ''is'' 9, so being in bad enough condition to warrant a clearance markdown literally could not make Lefty any less safe.

* [[https://youtu.be/HRHn3Ji-iGU?list=PLsLgrza-KXUcb7Qn0cw1zhlYgbFRZxzum&t=753 Lefty is $5]]. Memes aside, if you've made it this far into the game, it's quite a treat to see the ominous looking animatronic marked as only $5. It's obviously a bad idea, given how the Risk is at level '''''9'''''.

* Candy Cadet, while kind of disturbing, can be pretty funny. For one, there's his CatchPhrase, which can be kind of chuckle-worthy considering his MachineMonotone voice - [[BrokenRecord "Candy, candy, candy"]]. Also, sometimes he tells you a creepy story... [[MoodWhiplash which is followed by airhorns and the "Game Win" text.]]

** There's something grimly humorous about the ending of the advert, where it counts up how much money the protagonist has left after buying the franchise package for only one reason... '''''He only has 100 dollars!''''' While there's no indication of how much they had saved up beforehand, it ''is'' pretty funny to imagine that they had much more than that, and the package costed him almost everything he had. The intro ''does'' call it "a huge gamble". Of course, if the protagonist is indeed Mike Afton, then to him, it would be worth it.

* The lawsuits that offer a neat summary of the things the claimants allegedly suffered at your pizzeria. BlackComedy at its finest. They utilize MinorInjuryOverreaction to a hilarious degree. For example, one girl fell into a coma for ten weeks (even though the pizzeria has only been open for, at the minimum, ''a single day'', and at most, '''''SIX DAYS''''') and was essentially lobotomized... because she saw an animatronic head fall off.

* You can buy a jar of pickles for your children's pizzeria. The kicker is that it gives a bonus to "Happiness", a parameter that normally isn't calculated with the other goods available.
** Even better is how much effort you have to go through to get the option to purchase it, as it originally starts out as unavailable. [[OneHundredPercentCompletion You have to have every achievement unlocked and every item in the catalog purchased.]] Almost makes you wonder if Scott is [[CompletionMockery taking a jab at Completionists]] by giving them such a mundane reward.

to:

* You Each of the "sets" of animatronics has an achievement for collecting all of them and placing them on stage, and the game rewards you for each one. For the first three sets, the reward is a cash prize that's actually more than what the animatronics cost, so you'd expect the fourth to be the same, right? After all, buying the three animatronics required (El Chip, Music Man, and Funtime Chica) is very difficult - they cost a grand total of ''$122,000'' dollars. Short of knowing a trick with some of the minigames to get two of them free[[note]]You can buy get Music Man from Ballpit Tower and Funtime Chica from Prize King, but each one only has a 1% chance of being awarded. It ''is'' guaranteed after ten plays - but since the game only lasts six days, that means eating up a third of your minigame plays just to get them if you get unlucky[[/note]], it's extremely difficult to get that much money within the time limit. So, you finally accomplish it, and your reward is a new attraction... which is ''a jar of pickles for your children's pizzeria. The kicker pickles''. To add insult to injury, its only stat is that it gives a bonus to "Happiness", which is a parameter that normally isn't calculated with stat exclusive to the other goods available.
** Even better is how much effort you have to go through to get the option to purchase it, as it originally starts out as unavailable. [[OneHundredPercentCompletion You have to have every achievement unlocked

* In the first five games there has always been a fan ''somewhere''...except for this one, until you figure out exactly why you don't see it. You are literally ''inside of the fan, '''and''' it serves as a main gameplay mechanic.'' The RunningGag has truly gone full circle.

to:

* The Blacklisted ending. Awarded by finishing the week with more than fifty risk, it has Fazbear Entertainment firing you for being "reckless and a danger". Even the ending narration admits that you have to actively be trying to be this much of a hazard by saying you're too much of a risk "even for us". [[EvenEvilHasStandards Keep in mind that this is the same company that used dangerous springlock suits that were known to crush employees into a bloody pulp if they were even breathed on incorrectly.]]

* The Ball-pit minigame, which involves having to click at the right moment with an arrow sliding across the screen dictating where Helpy is going to land when he jumps, with the goal of clicking so the arrow stops in the ball-pit while cutesy fun music plays in the background. Failing it? Helpy hits the floor with a ''SickeningCrunch'', and [[NothingIsFunnier just lays there completely still and the game becomes dead silent for quite a few seconds]]. [[MoodWhiplash Only for a videogame sound effect to play and then the minigame goes back to where it began and the fun music plays again.]] This moment is the page image.

* The Fruit Punch and Lemonade Clown minigames. You try to "surprise kids" by pressing [=SPACE=] while they are in front of the clown. When you do that, the kids (who all look like [[TakeThatScrappy Balloon Boy]], by the way) you managed to surprise start crying and the clown ends up with the goofiest smile and says "Fruit Punch for everybody" or "Lemonade for everybody" [[SyntheticVoiceActor as if it were run through a text-to-speech program]]. Better yet, they both speak with [[WhatTheHellIsThatAccent incredibly bizarre accents]]: Lemonade Clown pronounces his words [[EmphasisOnTheWrongSyllable horribly wrong]], and Fruit Punch Clown has ElmuhFuddSyndwome.

Discussion of how lawsuits factor into the endings isn't required to understand why the example is funny.


** More BlackComedy: While tallying the number of lawsuits, the counter has two digits. Meaning that it's entirely possible for just one Freddy's location to have literally ''dozens'' of new lawsuits '''every day'''. Ironically, you don't need to get that many lawsuits to actually get the bad endings! The Bankruptcy ending requires you to run out of money trying to pay off any lawsuit, and the Blacklisted ending only requires ''three'' lawsuits...'''a day'''.

** I guess they really ''did'' have [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFuckboys budget buddies...]]
** And it's not just limited to characters. The first ball pit you can get is quite literally a ''cardboard box.'' The first balloon station is just a ''barrel'' with balloons tied to the top, and a piece of paper saying "Take one.". Not even a sign - it's just a ''regular piece of notebook paper.''



** The funniest thing of all is the implication that Fazbear Entertainment was just randomly handing out ownership of restaurants to literally anyone willing to lay down enough cash. No wonder Freddy's has a reputation for being poorly managed!



** For that matter, it took five games but we finally get to see Pirate Foxy in full repair! Turns out he really DOES have a parrot! Too bad it's irrelevant.



** FridgeLogic makes it even more humorous: the girl's parents claim she fell into a coma for ten weeks after witnessing an animatronic's head fall off. The pizzeria has been open for, at most, one week. BlatantLies don't come much more boldfaced.
** While handling lawsuits, the toy Freddy is shown at a desk wearing glasses, an exhausted expression on his face. Adorable, but also hilarious. If you run out of money during this segment, he throws his arms up in despair.



** Even better are the ones that specify an animatronic as being the cause of the lawsuit, which can show up even if you've been going out of your way to avoid getting ''any'' animatronics.



** The fact that you can never actually ''win'' any of these lawsuits is funny in a dark way, too. No matter ''how'' obvious it is that the defendant is faking or exaggerating their grievances, or how easily it can be shown that you aren't culpable for the injury in question (such as having no animatronics in the restaurant), apparently, [[KangarooCourt the local court system just doesn't care.]]
** Actually, you ''can'' win the lawsuits! Though it's unclear how that happens; it could be random chance.
** And then the funniest part about these lawsuits: the pizzeria is a trap to lure the killer animatronics to their death. So the lawsuits were probably all made up by Cassette Man to keep the ruse that this is a normal pizzeria going.



** The kinds of sponsorships are pretty funny too. You can get advertisements for fizzy soda, ''plumbing services'', and '''[[BreadEggsMilkSquick wart cream.]]'''



** Alternatively, Lefty AKA [[BigGood the Puppet]] could be the one doing it, as the easiest way to get this dummy is to [[SchmuckBait buy Lefty]]. Depending on how you see things, [[KickTheSonOfABitch the Puppet is either taunting the person she believes is the murderer]], or [[NotSoAboveItAll just set that up for no reason other than dicking with the poor guy stuck salvaging her.]]



** Perhaps not even a crunch — it genuinely sounds like ''he got slapped in the face by a fish.'' That essentially turns it from CrossesTheLineTwice to crossing it ''[[UpToEleven four additional times.]]'' And it's even funnier as a result.



** In fact, ''all'' of the ending narrations are hilarious. From running out of money and filing for bankruptcy to being so reckless that ''even [[IncompetenceInc Fazbear Entertainment]] [[EvenEvilHasStandards wants nothing to do with you]]'', Tutorial Unit's chipper tone and the cheesy music and art running through the whole thing makes each misfortunate ending go out with a chuckle.



** On the subject of running gags, Scott didn't forget about one — you can still honk Freddy's nose, or Helpy's, in this case.
