     7 Days to Die 
Mark and Wade
  • There's this intro in the third video.
    Markiplier: And I have my good friend or giant douche Wade.
    Wade: (laughs) What?
    Markiplier: Also known as LordMinion777, also known as (deep gravelly voice) Rick.
7 YEARS LATER...
  • Having not played in a while, Mark and Bob take a minute to get their bearings.
  • Due to his misunderstanding the game's skill system, Mark dumps all his points into the base Strength stat, rather than the sub-skill that handles encumbrance. After he gets overloaded Wade and Bob have a field day making fun of him, dismissing his claims of being the fastest Youtuber and coining the term "Mark Slow".
    Bob: You know what, I'm Mark Slow and I've gotta go.
    Mark: Goddammit...
    • Mark says that he'll pay them back by coming up with his own insults, but his struggle to do so gives Bob the chance to suggest "Wade Smart" and "Wade Handsome", which Mark finds personally offensive.
  • Mark lampshades his pronunciations of "room" and "tutorial" ("rum" and "terterial").
  • Throughout the series there's a Running Gag of Wade (who has the most experience with 7DTD) giving Mark and Bob advice, which they either ignore completely or dismiss while mocking himnote . At the end of this episode Wade invites them to check out the campfire he's built; when they immediately refuse without a second thought, he says "Alright, fuck you, I guess."
DIGGING MY OWN GRAVE
  • As the title suggests, Mark spends a good chunk of the episode digging. He eventually builds a small moat on Wade's suggestion to be more productive.
    Mark: Morning. I'm gonna go dig a hole.
    Wade: (Chuckles) Okay. You looking for clay?
    Mark: Ladade— clay?
    Wade: For your forge?
    Bob: (Bursts out laughing)
    Mark: (laughing) I'mma dig a hole!
    Bob: Yeah, yeah. Yeah. That's why he's doing that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
    Wade: I thought maybe you were actually being a productive member of society. I shouldn't have overestimated you. My bad.
    Mark: (Loudly singing to drown out Wade.)
  • Bob goes after a coyote, which runs away. It returns a few minutes later while he’s dealing with a vulture.
  • The snake incident. Bob finds one and gets legitimately freaked out, telling the developers they need to look at an encyclopedia. He describes it as “floppity” instead of “slithery” and claims whatever mental image his friends have is correct. Mark pictures a snake that's as stiff as a board flopping around head over tail, which Bob says isn’t far off.
  • Toward the end of the episode, Mark goes into the garage so he can build the forge. His entrance startles Wade, who nearly wallops him in fright.
ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE (literally)
  • Continuing the "ignoring Wade" gag, when Mark and Bob get rushed by zombies at night, they (falsely) claim that Wade never told them how dangerous the nights could be. Wade replies that he's just going to eat Girl Scout cookies and pretend that his friends don't exist. As they fight off zombies and scream in terror, Wade just continues eating and remarking on the cookies.
  • After they kill the zombies on the sixth night, Mark heads out to check on the forge. He calls himself brave, immediately after which Wade points out he’s using a torch and sprinting.
  • Bob hops off the roof, forgetting about the spike traps. He misses them by about an inch.
  • Mark finds a house containing copious amounts of loot and inevitably lots of zombies. While he’s busy fighting them, Wade and Bob are in the background chatting.
WHAT HAPPENS IF EVERY NIGHT IS A BLOOD MOON?!Mark plays with Wade on his birthday. Hilarity Ensues.
  • The main gimmick of the episode (besides Wade’s birthday) is every night being a blood moon. Mark apparently forgot to mention this beforehand, prompting Wade to freak out.
  • Mark spawns near a building, getting enough supplies to build a spear and some spikes. Wade gets placed in an open field with no rocks. Cue him screaming in terror upon nightfall and dying after falling off a roof.
    • The best part is, from Mark’s video, the viewer can’t see what’s happening to Wade. They just get his screams.
  • When daybreak hits, Wade announces he has a feather, a tin can, and a block of wood. And he’s ready to take on the world!
    • Later, Wade finds some nails. He suggests that he could improvise a noisemaker to distract the zombies by putting the nails inside the can and throwing it.
  • Wade asks Mark if he'd actually tried out the game's super-difficult settings. He had but admits he only got three days in.
  • Mark starts getting harassed by birds while looting. Wade laughs at him, only to be attacked himself two seconds later. And just as things seem to be safe, the birthday boy gets attacked again.
    Wade: It's not the cactus! It's a bird! I thought the cactus clubbed me!
  • Wade recounts trying to do his Elmo impression while sneezing. It apparently hurt so bad, he thought his nose was broken.
  • At one point, Wade shouts out "Mark, birds!" Mark snarks "That sounds like a 'you' problem"...and then he gets attacked by two vultures, revealing that it was a "him" problem all along.
  • Mark takes to singing Spelling Songs, going on about how S-A-F-E they are or how they're a great T-E-A-M. After the latter, Wade remarks "Shouldn't that be 'teamwork'? I feel like there should be a W-O-R-K in there." Mark sits there with a blank look on his face for a few seconds, then launches into that song, finishing with "'K' is for... you'll be OK!"
  • Near the end of the episode, Mark tries to screw Wade by secretly purchasing a motorbike from the trader. Wade catches on because his chatroom was screaming warnings to him. In an attempt to save face, Mark claims it was a birthday present for him. Wade responds by giving Mark...vitamins. Not the antibiotics he needed to treat the infection he's had basically all video long. As Mark says this, Wade just rides off merrily on his new motorbike.

    Alien: Isolation 
  • Part 3 of his Alien: Isolation playthrough has his freaked-out reaction to the Working Joe androids. So freaked out, in fact, that he shoots at one and provokes a hostile reaction, not knowing that the androids are non-hostile in this portion of the game.
    Mark: DON'T FIVE NIGHT AT FREDDY'S ME, YOU PIECE OF SHIT! [fires]
  • He throws a noisemaker... and it clips the desk in front of him and falls right next to him!
    • He threw another noisemaker really far away... and it clipped itself onto a reactor and back to him. He got up, got out, and gets bum-rushed by the Alien, who pushes him to the floor.
    • He sent a third noisemaker at a lower level, which attracted the Alien. Mark, being Mark, embellished his hope that the Alien would focus on the noisemaker more than him, quickly saying "Stab it! Stab it with your tenis-pail!" He meant penis-tail. The look of instant confusion on Mark's face is priceless.
  • He huddles by a door and outlines a plan to juke the Alien so he can escape to an objective; as he's doing this, the Alien literally walks right past him and stands a few feet away, causing Mark to blanch in terror. Thinking on the fly, he decides to try and ease his way out the room behind the Alien while it's distracted. He does so and turns his back, only to be greeted by an enraged shriek and a penis-tail through the chest. However, he actually busts up laughing at his death this time because:
    Markiplier: Hahahahahahahahaha! I STEPPED ON HIS TAIL!
  • In Part 6, after getting the meds from the autopsy room, Mark vows to get out there alive, but first wants to double-check to make sure he didn't miss anything. As he returns to the computer terminal, the Alien appears in an adjacent doorway and sees him. Mark proceeds to make a fruitless attempt to escape while complaining about his failure.
    Markiplier: I need to make sure...that I have everything I need... [the door ahead of him opens to reveal the Alien] Why? [is spotted] NOHOHOHOHOHOHOOOOO! WHAHAHAHAHAHY?! Oh, come on! I haven't saved in FOREVER! [dies] SCREW YOU! Oh, he just walked by the door and just happened to go! If I hadn't gone back to the computer, he never would've known I was there! What a fucking asshole!
  • In episode 8, Markiplier accidentally sets a Working Joe on fire, which causes a chase around a stairwell and adjoining hallway. The Working Joe catches up to him and moves to throw him at a wall and choke him, but instead throws him right at the Alien, which kills him. From the way the animations are chained together, it looks like the Working Joe threw him at the Alien intentionally, like they were wrestling tag team partners.
    • Markiplier getting the flamethrower and the increase in confidence that comes with it.
      Working Joe: You are carrying some very dangerous items.
      Markiplier: [aiming the flamethrower] I KNOW! You wanna taste of it, bruuuh?
    • And when he first flames the alien...
      Markiplier: You know, if this was Dead Space the Necromorphs would have a feeding—
      [the Alien drops out of the vent in front of him]
      Markiplier: GAH! Okay, oh, okay— [draws and fires flamethrower] GAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! LIGHT IT UP, BABY!
  • Every time he throws a noisemaker, then talks to the Alien like it's a dog he's playing with.
    Markiplier: [playful voice] What is that? Better go check that out, huh? That's weeeeeird, isn't it?
  • "Thank you, space butt-hole, for letting me crawl through."
  • His thrilled expression watching the reactor core overload in episode 12.
  • At one point, Mark finds a little blue bobble toy and starts bobbling along with it with his arms up for a few seconds.

    Amnesia Series 
  • It just wouldn't be our beloved Markimoo if he didn't give weird names to various things in all the games and custom stories he plays. For example, the Brute is "Moose-Man", hallucinated monsters are "Poofers", laudanum is "l-OW-DOWN-A-DUM!", and so on, which often leads to a giggle during tense moments.
  • In his playthrough of the Amnesia: The Dark Descent full-conversion mod Killings In Altstadt, there is a soundtrack bug that causes the background music to be stuck in a loop of a cheerful tropical tune, which is the Shop theme from Ocarina of Time, and Markiplier is forced to play with the bugged music for at least another ten minutes. The bug eventually drives him crazy enough that he tries to kill the main character by jumping off a tall balcony repeatedly. While crying. The video's full description thus reads MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP
    • Becomes especially funny near the end, because the first time he jumps off the balcony, it does stop. Then it starts ALL OVER AGAIN.
  • During the last segment of Amnesia: Rain, Markiplier thoroughly explains how much he loves meat. And then this slips out:
    Markiplier: My mouth is just watering at the thought of that giant juicy sausage! Ahhh, I can't wait for the flavor to blow in my mouth...
  • From his Let's Play of Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs:
    CHILD: This way, Papa - come and see!
    Markiplier: [heading down the stairs] I don't think you're real! Or if you are- [the house trembles, and the chandeliers shake] Okay, you're real! You're real as you wanna be, just... be real!
    • Later on in the LP when Mandus activates the Machine, the sound it makes gives us this little gem.
      Markiplier: Okay, I built a Reaper apparently...
    • His commentary after a staircase collapses from underneath Mandus:
      MARKIPLIER: I knew it was gonna be a trap! I had a feeling... then I had that other feeling that you get when you land on your ass, and your legs go inside of you! It's a bad feeling...
  • Early on in the 4th and last part of his Amnesia: The Four Horsemen playthrough, Mark attempts to scare the viewer, but messes up his sentence. He ends up walking into a monster while explaining. And it promptly nearly kills him in one hit, then finishes the job in the second.
    Markiplier: I know that at any moment something is gonna pop out at me. Like that thing standing at you… Standing at, Nevermind! Goddammit, I was trying to spook ya but it didn't work. [opens door with monster behind it] It's that thing staring at you- AAAHHFAAFEERISH!
  • At the beginning of the last episode of the Amnesia mod: When Life No Longer Exists. He finds a nude guy hanging by a noose, whom he proceeds to poke and prod with a chair, as he laughs and proceeds to "push the naked dead body". He then looks at the camera, and upon realizing that he's started recording, sheepishly does his introduction.
  • Two moments stand out from the entirely hilarious episode in Mark’s playthrough of Amnesia: The Great Work. His getting stuck inside the terrain two times with little to no interaction at all, and his dumbfounded reaction to getting the black powder. What makes the latter funnier was that the black powder itself was in the same chest that he searched many times already.
    • Part 5 lends itself to some hilarity due to Mark being angry over a puzzle involving chemistry. He's so mad that he isn't even scared when a grunt shows up, and instead he decides to beat up said grunt with a chair.
      • The whole beginning:
        Mark: If it happens again... I'm not even gonna tell you what it is, but if it happens again, I'm gonna shove my fist up Samuel's ass!
        Samuel: Are you feeling better, Charles?
        Mark: NO!
        Samuel: That's good.
        Mark: FUCK YOU!
        Samuel: As I promised, I'll explain everything to you.
        Mark: Ahh no, don't try.
        Samuel: But first, I must ask a favor. Can you purify your Auric Hydroxide of gold?
        Mark: NO!
    • Part 12, aptly titled "Markiplier Breaks the Game", is nothing but pure hilarity from start to finish, with Mark repeatedly making outlandish attempts to figure out how to progress (and making none whatsoever, as the only progress he makes is finding the hatch to move forward but nothing more), and winding up outside the game map several times. It says a lot when Mark not only asks the audience for a hint, he further adds that they explain said hint like they're speaking to a toddler.
      Markiplier: AH, I BROKE THE GAME AGAIN!!
    • Part 13 begins with...an interesting confession from Mark...
      Markiplier: Oh and sorry to disappoint everyone; I've never actually watched Doctor Who, I just know a lot of references from it. A lot of people do. I'm not a fan of Doctor Who or anything, I just know he has two heartbeats, and he's got the magic blue box that's bigger on the inside than it is the outside...just like my underwear! [gets a really weirded out look]

    Bloody Trapland 2 
  • The second level in the game features a Skunk that gives you a tutorial on how to get the coin, Mark takes the easy way, and then sees the skunk heading for him, he actually thinks the skunk is coming to kill him, it's even accompanied by some horror music.
    Mark: Why is there this skunk? [Horror music starts playing.] The skunk is coming for me, do I run? Help, HELP!
    [Nothing happens]
    Wade: The skunk's friendly.
    Mark: Oh, it's fine, okay. [In between laughs] I thought the skunk was evil!
  • Wade gets killed by Mark, and Mark says it's not his fault and that Wade put his skull under his foot.
  • Wade starts slipping off a platform and starts freaking the hell out, and then he gets killed by the spikes below it.

    The Evil Within 2 

    Fatal Frame II 
  • In the fight where he first meets the Kusabi, while trying to discover what he need to do, Mark tries to take a photo of him (which yields no results) making him say "Instructions not clear, got dick stuck in ghost!"
  • Mark usually reads any found files out loud for the viewers, but lot of the Apocalyptic Logs found throughout the game have words missing and replaced with asterisks. By the fourth video he's retching at every other word to fill in the gaps.
  • MIOOOOOOO!!!
  • The outro of the video where ghosts suddenly appear as he's about to say his goodbyes.
  • After not playing for quite awhile, he started playing it again. The title for the episode? MIOOOOOOOOO!!
  • His frustrations at the numerous amounts of backtracking that he had to do that he realizes too late that he just started the final chapter.

    Garten of Banban 
  • Even Mark was willing to play Garten of Banban, and despite the game's reputation, a few funny moments popped up here and there as he played the game.

Garten of Banban I

  • When he spots Opila Bird, he reacts in horror towards the pink bird.
    Mark: Kill it! Kill it! Kill it! Kill it! Kill it! Kill it!
  • The Roblox "Oof!" is edited in to play at certain points in the video where chairs either fall over or knocked around. They, along with a box, also appear to say "Wee!" for similar reasons.
  • Mark reads Banban's infamous "Your pancreas is mine!", edited to distort his voice with deepfried footage, then grimaces in confusion towards this statement.
    Mark: Okay, sure. Sure.
  • Mark feels freaked out at Opila's playground being similar to Squid Game, while trying to smack Opila with the drone.
  • When Opila comes over to attack, Mark once more shouts "Kill it!" and tries to fire the drone at the bird. But as Opila gets closer, Mark boasts about wanting to attack the bird himself in a desperate attempt at survival until she's inches away and he's forced to flee.
    Mark: I'm dangerous! I'm lethal! I'll kill you! I'll eat your face off! I'll bite your whole neck - [Opila gets very close and Mark jumps away in panic] - in TWAIIIIIIN!

Garten of Banban II

  • Mark is more confused about the tables disappearing in the intro sequence than he is about the incidents in the facility. When he sees said tables propped up in the comms sector, he comments on them being there.
  • Mark begins reading the case update about Banban, only to be interrupted by the employee (actually Banban himself), and he is left angrily fuming from being interrupted. When he reads the section about the genetic donor, he is puzzled by the usage of the word "donor".
    Mark: Is that a sperm donor?
  • On the same paper, he notes that the case is "The Devil", reminding him of a certain Ink Demon.
    Mark: "Alias: The Devil"? Talking about Bendy?
  • After Banban reveals himself to the player, Mark finds himself amused at Banban calling him the perfect specimen.
    Mark: [smiling] You calling me the perfect specimen?
  • He declares the game a 10/10 because the drone can be customized with hats found in the game.
  • When he spots Opila in the darkness, he immediately runs towards her instead of from her, getting attacked for his troubles.
    Mark: I'm coming for you! [gets attacked by Opila] Oh, god, that really is death.
  • Mark sees Banbaleena in her class, and is just as unnerved as he was towards Opila.
    Mark: I ... hate ... you...
  • When Mark gets the sunglasses in-game, a pair of sunglasses are edited onto his face in the camera to make it appear he's wearing the ones from the game.

Garten of Banban III

  • Mark and Lixian get into some banter as Lixian's phone apparently blows up from scanning the QR codes on the Case Update documents.
  • Mark goes into a panic from Banbaleena mentioning that Jumbo Josh spotted the drone.
    Mark: What do you mean!? What do you mean!? What do you mean!? What do you mean!? Nooooo!
  • He becomes very agitated when Banbaleena decides to do some math which could have gotten them caught.
    Mark: Why would you do that? How could you be so stupid!? [he goes silent with a bug-eyed look as Josh checks the room] How could you be so reckless and irresponsible!?

Garten of Banban IV

  • His name for the Opila Chick is "Nose", because he thinks it will die and has the rhyming phrase "Nose Goes" to go along with it to lament its potential misfortune.

    Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy 

    GTFO 

maybe WE'RE the monsters...

  • For context, Jack only has had three hours playing the game compared to Bob, Wade, and especially Mark who had played fifty hours of the game.
  • Bob wants to use a tool refill kit on Mark (because he had to use his Shotgun Sentry very early in the game after Bob inadvertently alerted the rest of the sleepers) only to find out that Mark is long gone, killing the sleepers on his own.
  • Mark congratulates the other three for stealth killing the sleepers and is proud at how methodical they are. After they clear the room, Bob calls it "absolutely 'maniacal'" only to note that it's not the word he's looking for. Jack calls him out on it with Mark claiming that Bob should just quote Mark and cite him as his sources in his bibliography. Bob's response:
    Bob: Oh, I'll put you on my BOBliography.
  • While planning out how to defend the first room, Mark says "wink" a lot only for him to fall and take damage.
    Mark: Let them know I went down winking, I fell.
    • When they start the security scan sequence, Wade is the last person to get to the circle, with everyone complaining at how slow he is. Wade's response:
      Wade: I hurt my leg watching Mark fall.
  • Wade starts wondering on how the monsters would have access to the doors when they need keycards for it with Bob claiming that they were wrong to assume that the sleepers wouldn't have access to the keycards and that "disgusting mutated creatures are people too". Then Wade's response is:
    Wade: Yeah! I'm people too!
    Bob: Wade, you did this to yourself.
    Wade: I know, it was supposed to be funny and no one laughed, so now it's just sad.
    Jack: Yeah, cause you made a mockery of yourself and we don't like that. We're your friends.
    Wade: [chuckling] Oh, only you guys can make fun of me?
    Bob: We would never make fun of you okay. We're here to support you; we're here getting your backs and you're just tearing yourself down.
    Wade: I'm tearing my family apart.
    Bob: You're tearing yourself apart, Lisa.
  • Mark guesses the number of sleepers in the room upstairs, only for them to get alerted. Wade congratulates Mark for guessing the number correctly and Mark claims that he's been hearing things really well, "in the darkness". And then:
    Jack: Dude, go outside.
    Mark: No!
    Bob: When was the last time you bathed?
    Wade: Whoa, that's a personal question.
    Jack: Let your body get its natural oils.
  • Before the alarm sequence, Mark claims that he will go upstairs if the circle goes there. Only to find out that there were no circles going upstairs and that he's been stealing both Jack and Bob's circles.
  • Jack ends up triggering a sleeper in its detection phase and Bob then says that someone made the sleepers mad.
    Mark: Guess who?
    Bob: (talking over Mark) Wade?
    Mark: Ol' Toss Boy (Jack's Steam ID) again.
    Wade: Wait, why me?
    • After the fight was over, Jack claims that that he was keeping everyone on their toes only for Wade to interject that he got blamed for it. Mark and Jack call him out on it without realizing that Bob was being a Troll, with Mark claiming that Wade's "flapping his gums". Their videos uploaded later had flashbacks where Bob clearly said Wade's name.
  • While backtracking to go to their destination, Bob is happy that someone shared his stream as him, Mark, and a few others are playing only for Jack to wonder if he's a few people while Wade claims that he's still not included.
    • They end up going through a detour as they saw another sleeper glowing with Bob claiming that they didn't see it because of Wade. Wade then starts making noises then says that he's "flapping his gums" only for Mark to tell Wade to get that checked at. Jack then triggers another group again and Wade then goes on a tangent where they can't blame him only for Mark to claim that Wade's "flapping his gums again".
      Wade: I'm glad all three of you are here, Sean.
      Jack: Hey, I'm just a few people dude.
  • Mark's plan to defend the room (using the previous door to defend against the enemy waves) turns out to his disadvantage (at first) as he didn't realize that the enemies came to the room from the rooms they came from instead of from the entrance. This leads him to wonder what's going on with the fortified door that they had their sentries at, and he busts the door down only to find a bunch of despawning dead corpses.
  • While discussing about the song Bob was referencing ("The Joker" by Steve Miller Band), everyone ends up discussing about it loudly while Mark starts complaining that he wishes he could hear the sleepers. Bob and Wade then amp up their voices and tells Mark to keep it down while they're discussing about the song.
    Mark: I miss solo!
  • When they find the objective that they need and start the sequence to escape back to the entrance, Bob commands to take "their juices and let's get out of here!"
    Wade: Gross, but alright.
    Mark: You've convinced me.
  • While escaping back to the entrance and the enemies are hitting the door and the in-game voice claims that there's only "five seconds left before the door gives":
    Wade: Hey, five seconds is longer than I usually last. Good on that door.
    Jack: Wade, stop belittling yourself. You're leaving no jokes for the rest of us.
    • The bit ends with Wade calling himself a "sprint man" instead of a "marathon man".

FIRE ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!!

  • The Running Gag of this episode is Mark getting his hands on a long-range flashlight and the antics that result from him using it.
    • At the very start:
      Bob: You know what I miss? I miss long-range flashlight.
      Jack: [chuckling] I don't! Got me in more trouble than it was worth.
      Mark: Yeah no, in this one yeah no, I miss long-range flashright... fla- fle- [Bob starts laughing]
      Wade: Right. Flashright.
      Jack: Flashleft is my favorite.
      Mark: I've dedicated all my brainpower to hearing clickers so you guys back off.
    • As they finish off some enemies, Mark flashes his light right at a sleeper.
      Bob: Mark, you might wanna not do that.
      Mark: [snickers] Why, what the problem?
      Bob: [laughs] I'm- just a- just a piece of advice, don't.
      Mark: I'm just gettin em dancing, that's all they want.
    • As they open the first door, Mark suddenly turns his light on and runs into the room ahead of everyone.
      Wade: Oh nice flashlight.
      Mark: Thanks.
      [everyone starts laughing]
      Bob: I don't feel bad having mine on if Marks gonna lead the way with that bad boy.
      Wade: -the brightest fucking flashlight right in the middle of the goddamn room.
      Bob: Mark's strategy is "run into the room and blind them with the sunbeam".
      Mark: Look, look, my brain works at such a high clockspeed, I just memorize it from a single flash.
    • When they're trying to kill a huge mess of sleepers:
      Mark: You need to see? You need some light?
      Bob: [snickers] Mark, I need it to be daytime where I am, if you could uh-
      [Mark flashes the light for a split second, getting the 4 sleepers next to them angry]
      Bob: [laughing] Holy fuck, that's so bright.
      Wade: Greeeeeat!
      Mark: But you wouldn't have been able to see those two up there, would ya? Yeeeah, didn't think so.
      Bob: You're right, you're right. That was necessary.
    • As they do another door, Bob tells Mark to turn off his light while Mark continues flashing the room over and over. Bob eventually just tells him to turn off his halogens.
    • As they finish doing the third security door, Mark turns his light on again:
      Bob: [wheezes] What're you gonna melt a hole in the door so we don't have to do the security thing?
      Mark: Look man, I was just ready. You guys weren't ready as I am. I'm ready all the time.

HI HO! HI HO! It's Off to WUMP We Go!

  • Mark promises at the beginning of the episode that he will not wander off on his own for C2. It doesn't take him long to break that promise.
  • Wade tells the crew that something stinks and he's the only thing in his room. The others point out that the answer should be obvious.
  • Early on, Mark sees Wade trying to attack a sleeper stealthily. In response, he proceeds to come behind him and shine his long-range flashlight right on them.
  • When a horde gets triggered, Mark finds himself in the middle of the nest and gets attacked, made worse when Wade accidentally shoots him as well.
    Jack: Why did you get hit?
    Bob: Yeah, why'd you get hit?
    Wade: Yeah, why'd you get... hit?
    Mark: Wade, you stay outta this! [Wade starts laughing] YOU SHOT ME!
  • After looking for the P_DECs at a terminal, Mark sees the rest of the crew directly below him and keeps shining the long-range flashlight down on them.
    Jack: I say we just start swingin!
    Bob: I dunno if that's a good idea.
    Mark: Oh, you ne- can't swing without a light.
    Wade: Stop, don't. [Bob chuckles]
  • At the end of another horde, Bob kills another sleeper Mark was trying to get. When Bob tells him he needed to crouch, he gets worked up and abandons all sense of stealth, actively running up to a sleeper and killing it. He then goes and kills another... triggering the sleepers that were hidden nearby.
    Mark: Oh, whoops.

4 ALPHA MALES Beat the 2nd Hardest Level

  • At the start of the level, Wade takes damage by falling off a barrel by accident...one of the hardest ways to take damage accidentally. For the rest of the episode, Mark, Jack, and Bob continue to poke fun at Wade for messing up so epically.
    Wade: I, uh, tried to jump on a barrel and I missed.
    Mark, Jack, and Bob: [all bursting into laughter]
    Mark: [Choking through laughter] How?!?
    Jack: So it's tough all around for everybody then.
    Bob: That's a cool health amount you got there, Wade.
    Wade: I don't know how I missed, but somehow...Life, uh, life found a way
    • The joking doesn't stop there, later on Mark and Jack team up to make fun of Wade once more
      Mark: Aw, Wade...Did your teeny-tiny balls get caught on a barrel again?
      Jack: I'm never gonna see your teeny-tiny testicles if you don't get in there! Because toxic masculinity is gonna get us through this level
  • Mark becoming what Jack christens as "Horse Ethan" when Bob questions why Mark didn't listen to Wade.
  • Near the end, Mark tells the others that the secret door must be the way out of the level... something that can be seen on the map. The next 5 minutes consists of the other three brutally roasting Mark while the whole crew are in fits of laughter.
  • Later on in the level, the four of them are all crossing a room filled with Sleepers. Bob (thinking he's the last one to leave) goes to close the door as to not wake the Sleepers as they progress. As he closes the door, Wade (who had been behind Bob and was now locked out with the Sleepers) makes a sound that has to be heard to be believed.

PRAISE THE SUN!!

  • The entire episode has the crew only semi-trying. As a result, they do completely outrageous things such as using their mallets during a horde, using the long-range flashlights to "blind the sleepers", and other such blunders. Wade lampshades this.
    Wade: I still haven't figured out if we're actually trying this time or not.
  • After Jack finds a long-range flashlight, Mark opens a cabinet to find another one.
  • When the remaining trio trigger a huge hoard of sleepers, Mark enters the fray with his mallet. When its over, he regards this as a big mistake as he tells them he has only 9% health.
  • Right after clearing the huge hoard, they go into another room and Mark loudly attacks the first sleeper... only to find out his attack didn't kill it, triggering another horde.
  • The entire "Smao Wow" bit, where Mark and the others eventually devolve into putting Smao Wow and variations of the phrase into everything they say and being unable to stop laughing about it or stop the bit. Jack likens it as sounding like a sassy cartoon cat.
    Bob: [laughs] He's the sassiest cartoon cat, DON'T YOU FUCKING FORGET IT!
  • As they get into the character of light-loving cultists, Mark puts on a posh British accent. Wade declares during a horde battle that he's going "through the death pile of fuck," which Mark repeats in said accent.

GTFO w/ Bob, Sean, Wade

  • After not playing the game for a long while, Mark and Wade find themselves jumping off a ledge to take fall damage.
  • Wade gets an ammo pack that has two uses and gives it to Bob and Jack while claiming that he and Mark are "spear bros" which means they won't need ammo. Mark tries to object, wanting some ammunition, before resigning to the bit.
  • While trying to approach three of the sleepers, Bob asks Mark on how to sync them with Bob wondering if they should use the flashlight. Considering their antics three videos ago, they all ended up having a good laugh about it.
  • While attempting to kill in sync, Mark has an Oh, Crap! moment where the charge attack of the weapon can only be held for a few seconds before the attack animation goes regardless of whether the player holds the button or not. Thankfully, none of the horde got attracted.
  • Jack finds "the power of the sun" and Mark immediately pulls a slow Rapid-Fire "No!".
  • While backtracking, Mark ends up failing to make the jump and falls to the chasm, screaming. Considering none of them have been hurt by any of the sleepers, Wade chimes in with:
    Wade: Despite no enemies having attacked us, Mark is at 3/4 health!
    Jack: Yeah the only thing that can kill us, is ourselves.

GTFO w/ Bob, Sean, Wade - Part 2

  • This early exchange between Sean and Bob:
    Sean: Bob you're good at improv; what is M.C.F.C an anagram for?
    Bob: My Cute Fuckin' Cock!
    Mark: [laughs]
    Sean: ...Y'know, it's my fault for tossing it to you...
    Bob: You really just lobbed that one right over the plate, I don't know what you thought was gonna happen.
  • The Running Gag of Wade going "B-b-b-b-Bobbled!" anytime Bob manages to headshot the scouts and the bigger versions of the enemies.
  • At the start of the level, Mark fails to realize that there were two sleepers in the room.
  • When approaching two sleepers close together, Bob and Wade set up the usual strategic slow approach and wind up to hit them with melee and not alert the horde. Before they are able to start, Mark leaps down from a ledge screaming and wings both of them before anyone else can react - naturally causing Bob, Wade, and Sean to nearly have heart attacks.

GTFO w/ Bob, Sean, Wade - Part 3

  • Mark continuously miscounting the number of sleepers within a room and being forced to use Verbal Backspace repeatedly as he keeps upping the number. Made especially hilarious when they get to the last room before being wiped out:
    Mark: Guys how do you feel about two tentacles?
    Wade: TWO tentacles?!
    Mark: Well, there was ONE... there might be THREE tentacles?
    Bob: Okay okay, cool....
    • Followed by them opening the door and everyone seeing a scout right in front of them and already deploying its tentacles. Followed by screaming and an immediate scramble to get out of the doorway while not alerting the creature to their presence.
      Bob: HOW DID THAT NOT COME UP ON THE SCAN?!
  • The team ask Bob to snipe a giant inside one of the rooms, with Mark reassuring him that the other sleepers are spread out and won't be alerted. Bob takes the shot and immediately the other sleepers in the room are alerted and start rushing the players. Then they realize that every sleeper in the room is a giant. Panic ensues.

    Happy Wheels 

    Heave Ho 
  • In the Heave Ho Mega Episode, the game is a co-op platform game, where Mark, Bob, Wade and Jack have to cooperate to get the coin on the level and reach the end. Wade is new at the game, while the rest had filmed a previous playthrough together, leaving a very inexperienced Wade to be The Load. Hilarity Ensues. The conversation at the end really sums up the experience when he tries to claim that he was very important to their success for most of the game.
    Bob: For the entire first 75 percent of that, you were trying to kill us, and it was so —
    Wade: I was never trying to kill you!
    Bob: Then you were so inept that you were killing us accidentally.
  • In the end level of the beginner section, Mark, Wade and Jack die when trying to advance as a mass with no coherency. After they die, Mark and Jack get respawned at the checkpoint where Bob was, while Wade respawns at the beginning.
    • To add insult to injury, after Mark, Jack and Bob form into a line and quickly advance, they leave poor, hapless Wade to struggle in their wake. After a bit, Wade dies and gets respawned at the rest's location, but Wade's game locks up there. The rest grab Wade's limp body and drag him to the exit.
  • As all four are in a jumble trying to hand off the egg to someone with a free hand:
    Bob: Don't worry, I've got a hand free. [Lets go of his hand that was holding everyone up and all four plunge to their death]
  • After a little bit, they get to a basketball minigame. Wade keeps falling off his platform accidentally and interferes with Mark, who mildly rages.
  • After yet another death on one of the early levels, Mark offers the best description of the gang:
    Jack: I told you [this level] was hard.
    Mark: It's not hard! We're just dumb!
  • Late in a difficult level, involving platforms that electrocute the players if they wait too long, Wade latches onto Jack's head and Jack ends up swinging them both into the end.
  • Wade grabs Mark, but he's having none of it, and tries to lift Wade into a electrified section.
  • This part when Mark and Bob are trying to get the coin and each other into the finish line:
    Bob: Wait.
    Mark: Wait.
    Bob: Wait.
    Mark: Wait. [Bob gets fried.]
  • The entire last few minutes of this level involving spinning electrified platforms and Mark and Jack's attempts to grab the coin are unending funniness.
    • After respawning during one attempt at the coin:
      Mark: Alright, I'm going for it, baby. [Gets fried immediately]
    • During another attempt:
      Mark: [Edging the coin towards the end] A little more. A little more...
      [Drops the coin, but the platform below electrifies, shattering the coin.]
      Mark: Noooo! Noooo!
  • Whilst balancing on top of a runaway boulder:
    Bob: Chill, chill chill chill. Chill faster.
    Mark: Grab the coin!
    Jack: Fuck the coin!
    Bob: Fuck the coin!
    Mark: [Dies from overreaching for coin.]
    Everyone: [Screams as they all roll towards death.]
    Bob: Chill, chill, chill! Chill HIGHER!
    Everyone: [Dies.]
    Jack: The fuckin' greed.

    The Henry Stickmin Series 
  • Mark plays the fifth Henry Stickmin game, Fleeing the Complex. The usual hilarity hasn't vanished from this game, but a standout moment is the "Distract" option. Henry starts dancing to distract the guards, but they and Ellie all join in. Mark found this so amusing that not only did he play it three times throughout the video, he modified his outro to include the music from that scene.
    • There's also the point where he encounters the Five Nights at Freddy's reference. You'd expect him to have PTSD by now, but he's completely casual about it. "Hi, Freddy!"
      Mark: NooooOOOHOHOHO! Not here, you dick!
    • When he gets the "Tool Gun" failurenote , he reacts normally... at first. Then:
      "Awwwww... HAAAAAAAAAAAX!"
    • His reaction to Charles' plan and goofy little song.
      Mark: [mimicking Charles's singing] "This is the greatest plaaaaaan!"
    • His struggles with the "Click here for a medal" Overly Long Gag. (Begins at around 14:55)
      Mark: Click here for a medal... oh, NO, come on!... uh? Oh? Uh? Hey! How's it going? Huh? Okay! Sure! Yes! Good!... I don't know!... I don't know what the capital of Mongolia is... I read what you were saying, but I don't know what the capital of— don't skip my words, okay. Dogs have feet. Paws, really. Press the sun in the sneaky ending... press the sun in the sneaky ending? Ohhhhh... which one is correct? This! Yay! Confession? Both correct... press the right-most button? Yes! Oh. Don't press this button? Okay... [presses it and is sent back to the title screen] NOOOOOOOOOHOOOOHOOOOOOOO, NOOO-HOO-HOO! You dick!
  • When Mark revisits Henry Stickmin with "Completing the Mission", he ends up discovering the first of the "Dance Off" options. When Henry is instantly blown away a second into his dance, Mark is so tickled by it, he has to replay it a few times. He will do this for all four options.
    • In one route, Mark falls into the trap of the "Walkthrough" option where Henry watches a walkthrough of his own game. Mark, however, fails to notice that he has to click to manually end the video, so gets stuck watching the incredibly boring looping video until he finally tries something else. It took him 22 minutes (or as the game puts it, 1326 seconds).
    • Mark discovers the option where Charles high-fives Henry and Ellie instead of catching them. He spends almost a minute laughing.

    Hunie Pop Series 
HuniePop
  • His playthrough of HuniePop has him mispronouncing the name "Hoo-ney" or "Hyu-ney" Pop right away.
    Welcome back to Honey Pop apparently, because hoo-ney pop is how idiots pronounce it, but that's me! So that's how I'm going to pronounce it from now on.
  • His reaction to the date gameplay essentially being Bejeweled.
    Love is blind? I think, well I think that's what they say, right? Love is something, anyway. Love is strong? Love is passionate? Love is apparently Candy Crush.
  • It doesn't take Mark long to realize the kind of game he's playing...and for him to get into the roleplay mindset of a somewhat sleazy, but utterly clueless creep who clearly doesn't know how to interact with girls:
    • The ludicrous question of "I gotta know, what cup size you rockin?"...every single time he chooses it is prefaced by:
    • After asking about their boob size, several times, Mark takes a few moments to call them liars.
    • When Mark realizes how his talk of having sex with each girl and them being "finished" sounds:
      Markiplier: Check, done, banged, check, done, banged....
  • When he receives the HunieBee.
    Kyu: It automatically registers the info of new girls you meet and can even track their location.
    Markiplier: ...Creepy.
  • He then likens it to Grindr note , which leads to an awkward stumbling explanation of how he knows about Grindr in the first place.
  • He opens the inventory and notices it contains a tissue box and a dirty magazine.
    Why, why, why would I need the tissue box? I have no idea. I don't even know what this is. "XXX"? Is this moonshine, maybe? Moonshine Weekly! My favourite magazine!
  • Whenever the player goes to meet a new girl, said girl is interacting with someone else, who winds up becoming the girl the player meets following the current one. What's hilarious is that not only does Mark preface these interactions when the new girl appears with an exclamation of "Who are YOU!?", but the fact that he does it on the third, fourth, and fifth girl he meets when he should be used to this by now is downright hilarious.
  • His reaction when he finds out Jessie creates videos... of a specific nature. At first he finds it awkward, but then he decides she's actually a YouTuber. Cue Mark picking up about four dollar bills that just so happen to be there, and adorkably tossing them in a "make it rain" fashion.
  • His reaction to the outfit Lola wears to the hot spring date? Make a loud noise at the sheer Fanservice. He does it again when he sees her at the beach in the sixth part.
    • Even better? In HuniePop 2, when he sees Abia's...bikini (named the Invisikini, go figure), he has another reaction that sounds like a drowning horse and wild hiccups.
    • Also in 2, when he takes Jessie and Lola to the strip club, his reaction at seeing what Lola's wearing is both subdued in comparison but just as comical.
  • The Running Gag of episodes beginning with anime-esque openings, as well as the faux-Japanese lessons.
  • He repeatedly asks himself why he wants a date with Audrey to go smoothly.
  • Speaking of Audrey, there's this moment from episode 5 after her response to a question:
    Mark: "I dun't like talkin to you, you meanie poopiehead and I just think you're a dumdum...!"
  • After his date with Audrey, who previously bemoaned leaving her sunscreen behind, at the Water Park goes well, Mark starts snarking at Audrey's flippant response to his success:
    Mark: You forgot your sunscreen, BIIIITCH! [Beat] YEAH, BIIIIITCH!!!!
  • Mark's reactions to meeting Momo for the first time. Watch as his expression goes from confusion and uncertainty to horror and disgust upon her stating her wish to have a master. He then notices the achievement he's received:
    Mark: "Bestiality"? I don't want that achievement! NOOOOO!
  • Mark's disturbed reactions to Momo throughout the rest of the Let's Play, like when he gets an erotic photo from her:
    Mark: Aaah! AAAH! OH, GOD! AAAAGH! OH, WOW! NOOOOO! AAAAAAH! (To Tiffany) Hey, human girl, would you like to go on a date?
  • When Audrey sends him a suggestive picture, he decides to censor it with John Cena in a obvious reference to the meme. He does it again for subsequent pictures along with the caption "Cenasored". When he restarts the game after not playing it for a while and she sends him the same picture, he forgets to censor it.
  • He tries to choose between Audrey and Aiko but can't find a coin. His solution? Flip his phone.
  • When he finally gets with Aiko, he covers her moaning with a Synthetic Voice Actor saying suggestive things. This becomes standard with the other girls he gets with, although with Momo it's just the voice saying "Meow" over and over again while with Venus it's a loop of him saying "OH! Bitch, I'm FABULOUS!" from earlier in the video.
  • Mark's views on aliens.
    If we could just build a wall around the Earth, keep out those dirty, darn aliens. Like Superman! [pause, shakes fist at sky] FUCK YOU SUPERMAN!!
  • He uses Siri to find a walkthrough so he can summon the blue alien. Only, Siri mishears it as "Booty Pop".
    "Booty Pop"? THAT DIDN'T HELP ME AT ALL!
  • Speaking of the alien, Celeste seems to touch upon a sensitive topic for space-loving Markimoo:
  • When he sleeps with Tiffany, he asks Matt to put a large amount of censors on it. In particular, it's an educational lecture on the solar system, a clip of the Sun exploding, another clip of a meteor crashing into the Earth, two dogs play-fighting, and part of the Bill Nye the Science Guy theme playing over it.
  • Nikki sends him a sexy photo of herself in bed. Mark has other concerns.
    Who is taking the picture? Who took the pic- what ghost was looking over you and took the picture? Who hangs a camera that far above their bed... oh, I see. SHE DOES PORN!!
  • Mark calls out his "signature move": PENIS-IN-VAGINA! He has to pause from laughing too hard.
  • When he goes on his first date with Celeste, she ponders aloud what she should change into. Mark tells her that she is absolutely fine with her boob-window, until she shows up in an outfit that reveals the entire mid-section of her body from neck to crotch.
  • At the end of another date with Celeste, she yawns and mentions that she should be getting to bed. Mark sits in Stunned Silence for a while until:
  • When Venus shows up, Mark, who's effectively become a master at the game, now plays a "seen it all, done it all" attitude towards her and treats her like an egotistical nutcase rather than the Goddess of Love.
    Mark: Will this lady....EVER get over herself!?
    • Then there's THIS little gem during his third date with her:
      Mark: [Beat] Why are you holding your boob? What, does that one sag more than the other and you gotta give it like a little extra support? I mean, I understand that-you must be VERY old being a goddess and all that, but I'll throw you a bone every once in a while...
      Mark: [later on, after the date] You can let go of your boob now...

HunieCam Studio

  • He invokes Unusual Euphemism by referring to the following with sanitised names:
    • Camgirl business = Let's Play business
    • Photo Studio = "taking promotional photos for thumbnails"
    • fans = subscribers
    • money from camming = "advertising revenue"
    • Adult Shop = computer store
    • coke (cocaine) = sugar, which is funnier when you consider a certain RPG Mark has played in the past where sugar was a drug...
    • vibrator = microphone
    • cat ears = logo headband
    • butt plug = butt plug
    • strip club = yoga club
    • sleazy motel = sleep, do nothing else, then mysteriously find (mattress) money
    • STDs = (radioactive) spider-transmitted disease
  • He finally decides to drop the act 11 minutes in through his first video, but uses them on and off again throughout the next four videos.
  • In a later episode, Mark looks up his name on Porn Hub. His regular, unedited videos had been uploaded there, with bizarre titles such as "Sexy Interracial Man Stares At Banana".
  • While looking at the available items in the adult store, Mark drops this wonderful line.
    Mark: I'll need more butt plugs... Oh, the day I was waiting to have to say that! I need more butt plugs! [...] I DEMAND MORE PLUGS OF BUTT!!
HuniePop 2
  • Mark recalling the times when he played the first game, even telling Lixian (who he "warns" to not look at the naughtier bits because Lixian's "too young" for the game) that Matt was the one who edited the videos back then (also a heartwarming moment as this is the first time in ages since Mark has even named Matt as one of his former editors after both Ryan and Matt left him due to Mark's controlling nature).
  • The thumbnail of the first video has both Mark and Lixian stare at Lola.
    • The Running Gag of the thumbnails in the succeeding videos has Lixian's avatar getting embarrassed at the girls.
  • Mark claiming that the series wouldn't get to the trending tab on YouTube, only to end up in said page.
  • While Kyu is narrating the intro, Mark gets distracted by the stick figure's butts.
  • After the tutorial date is finished and the game shows off the aftermath, Mark tells Lixian, who is blushing like crazy, to get the image out.
  • Episode three has Mark asking Lixian if Lola said "throughout" instead of "thorough" just like the text box says with Lixian, who is having a Nose Bleed, putting up a flashback.
  • Episode five has this bit of Nora being Innocently Insensitive about Mark's father.

    Ib 
  • Part 7 of his Ib playthrough has him attempting to solve the Toybox puzzle. It's strangely amusing watching him "being stupid".
    • From the same, this coming immediately after Mary's painting is burned, killing her:
    Garry: I have to say... girls sure can be scary...
    Mark: Oh, Garry! Ding! That's why everyone loves Garry!
  • Also of note, his reaction in part 5 to the doll room. He chases after a lone doll, sounding all bold, only to do a complete 180. It gets even better as he realizes just how bad it is.
    Mark: Oh boy... Oh no... Oh no. Oh no!
    [He realizes he's trapped in a room, and has to find an item. With a time limit.]
    Mark: Oh no... I didn't save before this...
  • His reaction to finding out that rabbit ornaments were actually disturbing dolls was pure gold. And let's not forget his search for the fish key back in part 1
  • There's something very funny about Mark giving Garry, who he even briefly thought of as a woman, a pitch of voice that's actually deeper than his normal speaking voice. Even when he voices Garry's trademark "HYEEEEEK!" he manages to make it sound as manly as possible.

    Kerbal Space Program 

    Lethal Company 
  • Mark, Bob, and Wade's song when they first figure out how to dance in-game.
    Mark, Bob, Wade: Weeee love the company! (The company!)
    The company! (The company!)
    Even if we die, we love the company! (The company!)
    Noooo-one volunteers for this,
    But we are heeeere…
  • And cut to a little later, with a despondent Wade carrying Bob’s body back to the ship…
  • And then later, when things aren’t going so well,
    Mark: We love the company, but the company will not love US if we don’t meet the quota.
  • Mark’s first encounter with a Coilhead. When it freezes up upon his seeing it, he hesitates, experiments by looking away and then back, and then a big grin crosses his face as he announces “I know what THIS is…”
  • A little later, they run afoul of a pair of Thumpers, which are extremely fast, but confined to the inside of one building. After a badly-considered attack ends with Wade dead, Mark and Bob retreat outside the building, trying to think of a plan. Bob boasts that he has an idea, goes in, and Mark waits outside for about ten seconds... after which Bob comes back outside, screaming, crying, and bleeding profusely. The fact that we never see exactly what happens from Mark's POV makes it even better.
    Bob: AAA! AAA! AAAA! AAAAA!!
    Mark: Oh my God, oh my God!
    Bob: It was a bad idea, that was a bad idea!
    Mark: You're bleeding... uh, yeah, that is a LOT of blood on the ground.
  • His first encounter with a Forest Keeper; when he sees it, he panics and stands still, screaming at the sight before running. Later, he calls himself out on it, admitting he would have died in a horror movie.
    Mark: I was just standing there, pointing, going "NOOOOOOO!"
  • While Wade is sneaking around a turret, he tries crouching to avoid detection. It seems to be working, and he announces to Mark and Bob "It doesn't see me if I'm crouched." A moment later, the turret lights up and whirls around to aim at Wade.
    Wade: NEVER MIIIND!!
  • While making his way through a building, both Bob and Wade abruptly go silent on Mark. Mark then realizes the path out is blocked by two monsters right next to each other. He closes a door to block their path, and is horrified when it opens up… to reveal Wade, who SOMEHOW got past both of them, and seems very casual about the whole situation. Wade then abruptly gets killed by a THIRD horror, leaving Mark to freak out and try to return to safety with Wade’s body, since Bob isn’t responding on the walkie-talkie, and Mark believes him dead… until a very confused Bob contacts Mark after several tense minutes; he’s already back on the ship and thought Wade survived and was carrying Mark.
  • Mark learns about false fire escapes the hard way; when he realizes his path to the entrance is blocked by a reskinned Bracken, he tries fleeing the building through a fire escape. Wade realizes something is wrong half a second before Mark opens the door, and a fanged maw lunges out of the darkness to grab him.
    Wade: Mark went out the BAD fire exit.
  • At one point, Mark’s game crashes while the boys are trying to get around a turret. Mark’s character freezes up, and Bob and Wade are dumbfounded as the turret pours bullets into an unflinching Mark for several seconds.
    Wade: Yeah, so the turret just started shooting, and didn't stop until your body disappeared, so you were just standing there taking bullets like a fucking Terminator, and Bob and I were just confused as shit!
  • While moving through a library, Wade is gunned down by a turret that detected and shot him THROUGH a nearby bookshelf. Mark tries warning Bob against going down the same hall as Wade, but Bob – mistakenly thinking Wade went a bit too far and was only tagged because he peeked out the end – goes in anyway, and suffers the exact same fate. Mark’s expression just screams “I’m Surrounded by Idiots”.
  • During another trip, Mark and Wade are trying to return to the ship down a long, narrow stairway outside, but Bob has already been killed on the stairs by an Eyeless Dog, so they’ll have to jump down off the stairs and move quickly. Wade asks if Mark is ready to go, Mark agrees, and both of them leap down at the same time. Wade jumps right for the entrance to the ship, but Mark misunderstood and jumps down onto where Bob dropped all his things to try to retrieve them, right on top of the monster that just killed Bob. Wade flees in the ship as it tears Mark apart, too.
  • While fleeing from a Loot Bug whose scrap he stole, Mark plummets into a hole in a dark area and dies... and is greeted by Bob, who's laughing at the fact that Mark fell into the exact same hole he fell into a minute prior. They agree to tell Wade that the Loot Bug got them both.
  • After dying from falling into a pit in a dark area, Mark sees Wade jump over the same pit without any problems. When he respawns, he dramatically accuses Wade of cheating by turning the gamma on his monitor up “like a coward”. Wade denies it, and replies that scanning an area lights it up for a fraction of a second, just long enough to maneuver himself into jumping over the pit. Mark has no rebuttal, and sputters out an equally-dramatic admission that he was probably wrong
  • While hunting around a building for loot, Mark spots a random teleporter and steps onto it. It only warps him a short distance away, down a nearby flight of stairs. Mark goes up the stairs, and – apparently not recognizing where he was a few seconds ago – announces he’s found another teleporter. He goes in, and this time, it takes him to the opposite end of the building, where he quickly gets hopelessly lost. Bob and Wade return to the ship without him, and when Mark begs Bob to guide him out on the walkie with the ship’s radar, Bob cheerily asks “Why?”. Mark’s flashlight dies soon afterwards, and he does not make it out of the building.
  • When Bob finally gets the jetpack – notorious in-game for being finicky, hard-to-control, and prone to exploding and killing the user – he initially does a surprisingly good job keeping it under control, boosting up to the roof of a nearby building and casually flying around. Unfortunately, he soon gets cocky, lands HARD on both feet, and staggers back to the ship on foot, leaving a MASSIVE bloody trail behind him. Then he wonders what happens if he uses the thing inside the ship, drags himself uncontrollably across the ceiling for a ways, and the moment he flies out the airlock, the jetpack explodes and kills him. Cue Mark the not-a-masochist immediately taking the remains of the jetpack for himself, and acting disappointed when he can’t get it to work.
  • Later on, they end up playing with a mod that has the option of detonating turrets and mines from inside the ship. Wade stays behind as mission control, and clears a particularly cluttered building as Mark and Bob go in. Cue both of them freaking out as loud random explosions accompany part of their trip, and they keep thanking Wade while sounding somewhat rattled.
  • Later events with monsters chasing and freaking out Mark and Wade are some surprisingly potent Nightmare Fuel… until you watch the same events from Bob and Wade’s channel and perspective. It turns out Bob has a mod that lets him play as the monsters, and Wade knows about it… but as of the recording, Mark doesn’t, and Bob and Wade are deliberately messing with him. With that in mind, seeing Mark FREAK OUT as Bob chases him around disguised as various creatures, to the point where Mark is sitting in a corner whimpering, is much funnier when you know the entire thing is something of a "Scooby-Doo" Hoax.
  • At the very end of a later trip, the trio fails to make the quota. Realizing they’re going to be subjected to You Have Failed Me the next time they leave the company planet and are doomed anyway, they decide to fool around with jetpacks for a bit. Eventually, Mark decides to let the company know what he thinks of them, and begins ringing the bell at the company counter and yelling his head off nonstop, which usually summons a mass of Combat Tentacles from behind the counter to grab the nearest player and drag them away. However, despite his yelling and standing right in front of the counter, the tentacles rush right past him and grab Bob instead. After realizing what happened, Mark decides he was “too handsome” for the monster to kill, and leaves in a huff. If one knows about Bob’s trickery from earlier, the viewer could even see it as Laser-Guided Karma.

  • Part 1 of his playthrough is pretty much Mark laughing nonstop over the game's weird dialogue and expressions. He can't even bring himself to be scared, it's just too funny.
    • The animation gives Joe and Charlie oddly vacant expressions, so Mark takes the opportunity to characterize them as complete idiots who are driven by shiny things, communicate mainly in grunts, and eventually die because Joe forgot how to breathe.
  • He's about to talk about how this game isn't hooking him the way Until Dawn did, only to be interrupted by the game's main theme. He immediately rescinds all criticisms... up until this point.
  • His accent when reading Fliss' letter. He can't seem to decide whether to use a horrible French accent or a horrible Italian accent, so it just slides all over the place into something barely comprehensible.
  • His bewilderment at the characters' actions (Conrad throwing money off the boat just to be a jerk to some fishermen, Alex deciding to propose to Julia while they're in the middle of a dive and there's trouble with the line) slowly escalates through the game and concludes with this line.
    Mark: This is not how humans interact! This is not how humans human!

    Minecraft 
  • Mark has returned to Minecraft after five years and is incredibly confused by all of the new features.
  • Mark has difficulty thinking of a good name for his new world and attempts to text multiple people asking them for a random word. Nobody responds. As Mark is getting more frantic, Lixian pops up in the corner to yell that he's taking a shower.
  • One of the first things Mark sees once his world loads is some grass that's floating because a pond spawned under it. Mark starts giggling over it and lightheartedly claims that the game is completely unplayable because of it.
  • Mark's happiness over still remembering the first basic steps of Minecraft.
    Mark: I still remember baby, I still remember! Hop-bop-member! I remembro. [screen zooms in on Mark] I remembrenate.
  • Mark has also decided that he's not swearing in this series, and when he accidentally swears he asks Lixian to censor it out with something "equally disturbing but not a curse word". Lixian censors it by replacing the word with a Text-To-Speech program saying the word "moist".
    • The second time he accidentally swears, Lixian replaces it with a TTS "daddy".
  • Mark's reaction to finding a zombie dungeon? Jumping right into the thick of it. His grimace after dying really sells it.
  • Mark mistakes sugarcane for bamboo and starts explaining that its important, but that he doesn't remember why (as well as calling it "bambaa"). Even funnier since bamboo is actually in the game, but Mark didn't find any.
  • In the second episode Mark manages to glitch some water, making a literal hole in the lake. He wonders if water is no longer infinite and starts trying to refill the hole to no success. He then makes *another* hole.
  • Also in the second episode, Mark mistakes some odd world generation as an arrow pointing down and proceeds to dig straight down to try to find it. It does end up leading him to redstone and gold by coincidence. Mark is estatic.
    Mark: I'm beginning to realize I'm an idiot. But hey, redstone! That's cool! Hey, my first redstone, thats great! [digs away redstone, revealing gold behind it] 'GOOOOOLD BABYYYYY!!!
  • At the beginning of the third episode, Mark asks Lixian to start a timelapse because "he's going to go deep, both literally and figuratively". Mark then proceeds to fumble with making some iron pickaxes, attempting to make it in the 2x2 inventory crafting section, dropping his sticks on the floor, before finally successfully crafting two iron pickaxes at his crafting table. He mentions that Lixian had better have started the timelapse, and that he's glad the audience won't see him fail at making a pickaxe. Lixian is standing in the corner of the screen smiling innocently the whole time. Only after Mark finally starts going down his mine does the timelapse actually start.
  • Mark finds diamonds at one point and tries to mine it with a stone pickaxe. When it doesn’t work he cusses in confusion (Lixian censoring his face cam with a NO!) and then does a search of “How to Minecraft” which ends with him putting his face in his hands.
    Mark: I’m stupid….
  • Markiplier wants Lixian to find inspiring music for building his house and goes into extreme detail, to which Lixian’s character gets a dumbfounded look and has text over his head that says “Visible Portuguese Confusion”. Another time Mark asks for inspiring music and Lixian plays loud rock with a mischievous smirk.
  • Another time Mark finds diamonds he is ecstatic and Lixian puts fireworks onscreen and blows a noisemaker, which hits Mark in the eye. Lixian is aghast but Mark waves it off.
  • Markiplier finished fighting a horde of skeletons, almost being killed. Afterward he goes to check his inventory and is alarmed to discover that his character is peppered with arrows.
    Mark: OOOOWWWWW!! GOOD GOD!

    Monstrum 
  • Mark's initial playthrough of Monstrum had three deaths and each of those were hilarious. The first was him getting cornered by the monster and staring with his mouth wide open for a good ten seconds after screaming "WWHAT THE FUCK?! Holy shit!" The second was him running into steam, his old enemy. The final one had him getting two of the needed things to get out... and then he walked into steam.
    • The first of these is made even funnier by the fact that Mark was seriously Tempting Fate, shouting that all the noise was going to get one of the crew members killed, only to be immediately answered by the monster's roar. This practically becomes a Running Gag when he first meets the second monster.
    • What's even more hilarious is that the Brute's orange glowing lights can be seen during the middle of his spiel, meaning that it was turning the corner or already right behind him. Becomes very amusing when you imagine the Brute listening to Mark and letting him finish his sentence, then pulverizing him.
  • In his second video, he gets all the components for the raft, assembles and lowers it... then proceeds to leap over the railing and die from the fall. Made doubly funny by the fact that the death-screen displayed by the game was that of the death-by-steam.
  • His reaction to running into a second monster after the above-mentioned failure, and everything that proceeds from it, is spectacular. It's likely he thought he had the game figured out at that point, making it all the more hilarious. It's probably the first time in a long while an indie horror game caught Markiplier so off-guard.

    Octodad 
  • Mark rages hilariously throughout his Octodad playthrough due to the difficult controls and his getting into character as a Hugh Mann. When he finally beats the game, his maniacal laughter breaks down into a confused sob.
    I'm normal! NORMAL! (BONK) Sorry, I'm normal!
    • And then there's his brief Octodad-related freakout at the end of Catlateral Damage:
      (smooth voice) And now we know there's more to life (starting to rant) than screaming at a stupid freaking octopus that doesn't know what he's doing and won't ever cooperate with you, (starting to shout) and will never do what you say-
  • His frustrated rage during his unsuccessful attempts to climb to the top of the octopus-themed climbing frame in the aquarium in Octodad. Especially hilarious considering his rant consists of several uses of the word "no" as he either gets stuck or keeps falling back down.
    Mark: If you put your mind to it you can do anything you wanted... Ooooyyeeeeeewwwwyaaaaooooww, no no! Oooooooooeeeyaaaiiiyo! Ooh! Ah! Ep! Mah ... buuuuurnip! Get back, da... buuuurrrda-burm! ... Nooo! NOOOO!!! (later) Shut up, lady! You're lucky to get my ink on you ... NOOOO!! NOOO!! Grab it! No! NO! Oh, God, please, please, please, please, please! Please, leg! WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR LEG?!!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING??! ... Aaaaand, I had it under control the whole time, thank you ... Nooo. NOOOOOOO!!! No!! And there we go! NOOOOOOOO!!! NOOOOOOOOOO!!! And there we go ... 'kay ... NOOOOOOOOO!!! ... Okay, there we go. All right. All right! ALL RIGHT! Nnnnreeeeerrrraaaarrrrnnngah! Mmmra-na-na— (starts screaming hysterically) NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! ... Yay! NOOOOOOOOO!!! How do I...? What am I doing?! AAAAAAAAAAGH! Okay, all right, whoa whoa whoa whoa! WHOA whoa whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Eeeeease on up for a second there. How the fuckin' ... NOOO! DO SOMETHING, YOU DICK!!! OH, DO SOMETHING!! Nooo. Wh-BAAAAAAAAAAGH!!! ... Yeeahh! Yes! ... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! COME OOOON!!! FFFU--... that middle one's cracked ... that middle one's cracked— NO! NO! NOOO!! NO, PLEASE! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE NO!!! NO, NO, NO, NO, NO! (finally makes it). (He's since blamed this freak-out rant on 'breaking' his voice, making it even deeper.)
    • He uses cat videos to "calm down". During the climb of the octopus climbing frame, the cat videos slowly become more and more demonic as Mark goes mad with fury.
  • From the Octodad DLC:
    • His horrified expression when Stacy seems about to go into an in-depth description of surgery, and the ensuing discussion of Tommy's last story - Sports Johnson and the Zombie Hurricane.
    • He has to feed someone in bed and naturally has issues with it.
      Mark: What a baby! Here comes the FRICKING AIRPLANE!
      (animation of an airplane crashing with people screaming)
    • His deadpan reaction to the Jerkass in Room 205 going into cardiac arrest.
    • His disappointment that Dr. Nigel was just a person and not a giant hand.
    • His perfectly understandable response when he thinks that Fujimoto recognizes Octodad in "Dad Romance".
    Fujimoto: [darkly] I smell an octopus... [cheerfully] It must be done cooking!
    Mark: [quickly] Okay thank you.
    • When trying to get into the bonus level in Octodad: Dadliest Catch, watching him get progressively more and more stuck in the shark head while he screams in frustration through several jump cuts until he seems to be wearing it like a costume.
      • And then, at the end of the video, when he's finally, finally gotten through the level, he goes back and climbs back into the shark can.

    OFF 

    Outlast 
  • The Call-Back to his attempted playthrough of Cold Fusion:
    Mark: Those brass, they really like to pump up the atmosphere. This game doesn't rely on a string quartet on my back [as Cold Fusion did every time there was a Jump Scare], just has a guy playing a sousaphone in my ear- (said sousaphone makes its presence known) Stop that, Sousaphone Man!
  • When he's hiding from Chris Walker, who's just standing around, Mark has a little fun by pretending to reflect his thoughts:
    Walker: (In a deep voice that resembles his Santa voice) Huh? What was that? Huggh, I better get back to my biscuits and gravy. I'm really hungry cleaning up this entire hospital. Ripping the heads off of people is a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it. Huggh, where I put my teddy bear? I wanna give him a nice big hug. I’d never rip the head off of my teddy. (Walker starts to leave the room) Huh? What’s that? Is somebody making fun of me over there?!
  • The animated highlights have their own charm. The highlight of the highlights occur at the end of the video. Mark chances upon the scene that he censored in the source video. The artist decides to depict it as Bob and Wade performing a tango. As well as their reaction shot to his further comment.
  • From Whisteblower, when he hears a patient's painful screaming:
    Mark: You alright in there? You're having trouble? Bite down on something hard and push! [more screaming] You got it. I believe in you! Show that turd who's boss!

    Poppy Playtime 

First Chapter

  • Mark's first meeting with Huggy Wuggy in the first chapter:
    Mark: I. Hate you. So much. (long pause) Oh my god, I hate you... I hate you. (hits Huggy's hand with his GrabPack) High five!
  • Mark reading the Huggy Wuggy statue's description:
    Mark: "Huggy Wuggy, 1984 to..." why would you put a death date?? Why would you even imply that there might be a death date?! That's terrible!
  • Mark knows for a fact that at some point, when he turns around, Huggy won't be there anymore. Sure enough, when he leaves the first electric puzzle, he freezes seeing that Huggy's spot is now vacant.
    Mark: [low scared voice] Huggy? You there, buddy..? Oh no... oh no.
  • Mark's reaction seeing Huggy's hand slither across the wall before disappearing behind a door. All he can do is constrict his face and groan in discomfort.
    Mark: Did you guys see that? I'm sure it was nothing...
  • Mark getting jumpscared by Huggy Wuggy after the Make-A-Friend section:
    Mark: [watches Huggy get closer to him] Oh my god, but I want a hug! [gets killed by Huggy]
    • Right afterwards, the death screen reads an unintelligible message, to which Mark replies "I can't read that!" with a constrained voice. The death screen than tells him "Get Up", to which Mark immediately says "Okay!" with the same tone of voice.

Second Chapter

  • Mark calling himself a "lightning rod of hate" when playing Chapter 2, soaking all the controversy from the game.
  • When Mark finds Elliot Ludwig's personal office, and it makes mention of a tragedy in "19-" before cutting off.
  • When startled by Poppy, he uses the GrabPack to smack at her.
    Mark: DIE DIE DIE! MURDER DEATH DIE!
  • He reacts in a deadpan manner to Bunzo Bunny's cutout correctly guessing his birthday is June 28.
    Mark: I'm assuming you just Googled that because that's pretty public information.

Third Chapter

  • Mark seems to attack Lixian several times throughout the course of the chapter via the edits in the video.
  • Mark misreads "The Hour of Joy" as "The Honk of Joy".
  • When encountering the Bubba Bubbaphant cutout for the first time, Mark finds that name to very dumb, saying that Bubba will remember Mark insulting his name, only to then laugh when the Bubba cutout screams in terror.
  • When Mark hears the voice of Ollie, he is reminded of Gregory, so he then imitates Glamrock Freddy's voice whenever Ollie is talking to himnote .
  • He loses all his progress and is forced to play the game all over again to get back to where he left off in his first video, but he seems deadset on insulting Bubba Bubbaphant again.
    Mark: So I'll be right back. I've got an elephant to insult.
  • Once he manages to reach the Bubba Bubbaphant cutout, he does exactly that.
    Bubba: Want to know what I remember about you?
    Mark: Big dumb elephant goes -starts making gibberish as he presses the cutout and hears Bubba scream again-
  • And when Mark hears Ollie, he continues his mock Glamrock Freddy voice and references a certain Megamind meme.
    Mark: Gregory, why do you have no bitches?
  • Elliot Ludwig's speech when introducing Playcare is modified and butchered to sound more profane, making him sound like he's saying "cock".
  • As Ollie mentions the gas machine has "dumb safeguards", Mark boasts about his big brain being able to handle them.
    Mark: "A few dumb stupid safeguards". Don't worry, my big brain will be able to solve those in no time, skibidi flat!
  • He walks into the elevator room and wonders if the machine will teleport him into its wife's memory. Then he finds the CatNap cutout, which plays snoring noises, and thinks the cutout is farting.
  • He tries to recommend Lixian play creepy music, then when Mark tells Lixian to cut it off, Lixian punches Mark. Then Mark stares at him and he worries he'll be fired.
  • When entering the Nightmare Sequence in Home Sweet Home, Mark is edited happily inhaling the Red Smoke into his nostrils.
    Mark: Well, I'm relaxed.
  • As Mark then heads down a long hallway, he starts getting reminders of monsters he encountered as part of his "3 Scary Games" videos.
  • When he encounters the radio that says "Stay tuned for more!", he leans in to his microphone and says "Okay, I will!" with the same filter applied.
  • He tries to take many of the shocking scary moments in the sequence at face value, but CatNap staring down the hallway finally surprises him. His response is to rush at CatNap, and when the purple cat slinks away, Mark calls him a scaredy cat.
  • When finding the first go-kart, Mark wants to ride in it eagerly, before realizing he's better just pulling the string and letting it crash. Then he tries to slurp up the Red Smoke without using the gas mask, disappointed that he instead died from inhaling it.
  • He finds the PickyPiggy cutout, and when it comments about seared elephant being good, he continues his joke about Bubba Bubbaphant.
    Mark: Man, everyone's out for Bubba!
  • Mark pretends to scream when steam from some pipes blows on his face. He proceeds to make several mock screams with mock Scare Chords because he's anticipating a jumpscare.
  • Mark jumps into the elevator that Poppy and Kissy get on early, causing Kissy to slide into place and clip through the elevator. Cue Mark becoming increasingly confused as Poppy's audio still plays despite her not being present, assuming she's telepathically talking to him, and then having to reload because he softlocked himself.
    Mark: Get out of my head!
  • He presses the Bobby BearHug button at the Smiling Critters statue, and finds her name to be even dumber than Bubba Bubbaphant's name.
  • He finds the schoolhouse to be somewhat familiar to his experiences from Garten of Banban. And when Miss Delight finally shows up, he actually walks right over to her, finding out she can still jumpscare him even when she's completely still.
  • Mark finds himself amused by the unsafe layout of all the broken bridges and objects that require the GrabPack, questioning why Playtime Co. didn't just build stairs.
  • A tiny DogDay jumpscares him, and he is caught off guard and surprised that such a little creature is the scariest thing here.
    Mark: What in the frick!? Oh my god! What? Legitimately, what? How is that the scariest thing this game has ever done?
  • Mark asks "Is this the counselor's office?" while photoshopping himself onto Patrick Star during the "Is mayonnaise an instrument?" scene.

    Prey 
  • While playing Prey (2017), Mark plays the protagonist as a total Cloud Cuckoolander. Highlights include:
    • Monkeying around in his apartment.
      Mark: Thank you! I don't know what I did- I'ma climb on this counter now because I'M A BALLER! THIS IS MY PLACE! I CAN CLIMB ONTO THE COUNTERS IF I WANT TO!
      Mark (after reading Alex's email): Oh, so that's my brother. Ah, so that's why he was excited- I'M GONNA CLIMB THIS TOO! Because I can! And that's a thing I can do!
      Mark (In Morgan's bathroom): Anything in here that I need? Can I look- can I climb my sink? (Jumps up on sink, then falls off) Ah yeah, I've broken it. I tried to climb and I failed miserably.
    • His very distressed reaction to the process of installing the neuromods.
    • Becoming obsessed with carrying a shoe (which he names Shelly) around.
    • His reaction to the tests the scientists give him.
      Mark: (after Dr. Bellamy displays thinly-veiled frustration with the outcome of the first test) *Laughs* What, you didn't like my haphazard throwing speed? Huh? I did it haphazard style. Oh boy. These guys are looking for a sassing.
      Mark: (on being told he's supposed to hide in an a room with only a chair) What? [After the test starts] You know what, I think you guys deserve a little bit of sass. Can I sit in this chair? *picks chair up* What? What the hell? Can I-*holds chair between himself and scientists* Hey! YOU CAN'T SEE ME! YOU CAN'T SEE ME! You can't see me!
  • Also there is Mark's dirty jokes on the Gloo Cannon.
  • Later on Mark tries to throw an EMP Grenade in a chamber housing two mimics only to open it and release the mimics instead.
    • After that, Mark ends up getting attacked by two corrupted robots while his portable turret barely helps in.
  • In Part 7, Mark ends up meeting with the apparent cook of the station, Will Mitchel, face-to-face. After having a discussion with him, Will's AI suddenly tags Mark as hostile for no discernible reason, and attempts to flee. Mark, completely dumbfounded, watches as the overweight man begins jogging all over the kitchen in fear for his life.

    Prop Hunt 
  • In an early episode of Prop Hunt, after Minx jokingly says she ships PewdiePlier, Mark says this, which is a cross between No Yay (for Markiplier) and a disturbing Funny Moment:
    Markiplier: Oh god... do you know how bad Yamimash and me shipping, like, Markimash, has gotten? I get fanart of just gay porn of both of us every day.
    PewDiePie: Oh, you don't want that.
    Markiplier: No.
    PewDiePie: What the hell have you guys been doing exactly in your videos?
    Markiplier: NOTHING!
  • From Prop Hunt, Mark gets stuck in a plushie stand and really hams up his suffering.
  • During Prop Hunt #5, he sneaks past Yamimash and Sparkles as a small bottle, but when he gets cornered, his prop rapidly flickers between a chair and a table.
  • In this Prop Hunt, Mark, Wade, and Jacksepticeye make funny faces in their webcams... and Bob just looks into his webcam and shakes his head.
    • The best part is the gold 'you tried' stars that appear by each of them. Bob's is "I don't even think you tried at all".
  • In Prop Hunt #17, Mark (in the form of a Creepy Doll) trolls Bob by repeatedly opening and closing one of the doors in the level and saying "Squeeeeeeak!" every time. Wade tells him that if he keeps Tempting Fate like that, eventually Bob will be on the other side of the door. Moments later, that's what happens.
    • In that same video, Mark turns into a box and hides in a room full of oil barrels. When Bob comes in and starts moving the barrels to find him, Mark tries to sneak by, but gets spotted. After doing the "Squeeeeeeak!" thing once more, he makes a mad dash back to the barrels room and turns into one, and manages to win because Bob's eagerness to shoot Mark results in his shooting too many inanimate objects and killing himself.
  • This LP starts out with the group trying to play on a map but all Jack and Mark can see is errors and purple walls.
    • Bob shows Jack what prop he is disguised as while Wade sneaks up on them, causing Bob to panic. Jack then kills him because of "comedic timing".
    • This part:
      Bob: Wade doesn't like to have any fun whatsoever. If Wade played Tetris, he would just stack the blocks neatly, and finish the levels, LIKE A FUCKING DICK!
      Jack: Bob, you're dead. You don't get to talk anymore.
    • Wade, Bob, and Mark start making jokes about "Seaman on the roof", prompting Jack to kill himself out of annoyance.
    • Mark and Bob come and free Jack while he is stuck inside the shed. As they walk away, Jack immediately gets stuck again, causing Mark and Bob to leave him there.
    • Wade, who is disguised as an oil can, starts singing about coneteco oil while Bob and Mark shoot at him.
    • Mark shoots Jack after killing Wade, causing the whole shed to explode.
    • This exchange:
      Jack: Piece of shit game, messing my life, my fun.
      Mark: My life, my fun, my world! MY GAME!
      Jack: I only care about M-E, my enjoyment!
      Mark: It's called Sean's Mod for a reason guys!
    • At one point, Mark takes the Hidden in Plain Sight approach, turning into a trash can and sitting next to the street. Wade walks right up to Mark while Mark's being quiet for a moment, and asks if he has anything to add to the conversation. Mark lets rip with a Big "NO!" and races off, startling Wade (and Jack) so badly they visibly flinch. The best part is, Wade hints at least part of why he was so startled was that he didn't actually suspect the garbage can, and just happened to wander up to it while asking.
  • During a turn as a prop, Mark tries to hide as Kleiner, only for Bob to easily find him and offer him a jar of pickles as a prop, throwing it up onto Mark's head in the process. Mark tries to refuse, but accidentally changes into the pickle jar. Then the pickle jar drops onto Mark, and thanks to the fact that he now has one hit point, it kills him.
  • In part 35, Mark spends several minutes making stupid "boner" jokes as a hunter. The funny part comes when he spends so much brainpower coming up with them at one point that he completely misses Wade disguised as a car, glitched into the top of another car. Wade's dumbfounded, silent Jaw Drop to the camera says it all.
  • In part 42, Mark and Jack hide from Bob and Wade as a pair of bottles on the roof. Wade spawns right next to them, immediately runs up to the bottles, and kills Mark in seconds after the round begins. Jack panics and jumps off the roof, killing himself on the spot.
    Mark: That didn't work at all!
  • In Prop Hunt 48, Mark says he doesn't remember a lot of the different object's locations. Jack replies:
    Jack: Ah Ha! I'm using your own stupidity against you!
    Mark: No! My one weakness!

    Raft 
When three men get lost at sea in a video game, hilarity ensues.

help...

  • Mark wonders how their characters are related to each other when Bob claims that Mark is the "brother-wife" of the family. Mark, going along with the joke, refers to Wade as "sister-cousin" and Wade then goes on his spiel before questioning who he was again as he completely forgot who he was supposed to be for the bit.
  • When Bob ends up having the shark near his face, he ends up screaming that the shark's face is in his face.
  • When trying to figure out where to put the sail, Mark asks the opinions of the other two with Bob claiming that he probably should put it at the middle and Mark obliges. Bob instantly regrets it as the grill and purifier are located just near it.
  • Mark ends up getting disappointed that he can't use the chair to sit down while using the hook.

this is fine...

  • After making the advanced purifier, Mark is about to give it to Bob when Bob tells him not to do so as he says Mark should treat himself. Mark then claims that he's been a "bad boy" and thus he shouldn't get it.
    Wade: I agree.
  • Bob's Take That! to the Dave Matthews Band.
    Bob: Wahoo! (Incoherent sound) I'm Dave Matthews. You know.
    Mark: Yeah, yeah...
    Bob: Cause he's a bad singer.

please don't...

  • Wade ends up asking how late Bob and Mark are gonna be streaming with Mark claiming that he would have to go as he was about to record another game. Then Wade claims that they could just play Raft until they die.

uh oh...

  • While Wade tries to explain to Mark and Bob about what to expect when they reach their destination (as Wade already has played the first chapter of the game), he tries explaining that it might be a spit which squicks out the other two. Wade then cycles through other water body fluids until he decides to just go with semen.

that can't be good...

  • Wade doesn't stick the landing and ends up taking Fall Damage with Mark singing at how Wade failed.
  • After he sets up the bomb, Mark then wonders if he should stare at it when the bomb explodes (and the video ends).

what the hell is that...?

  • Picking up where the last episode left off, the bomb explodes taking half of Mark's life and incapacitating Bob.

the secret of the island...

  • At the end of the video, Mark finds out that the group needed more bee jars so he tells Bob, who was already in the middle of "awarding" Wade for his hard work to stop the ceremony.
  • After two videos on the island, Bob realises something:
    Bob: Are those things called "Bruno's" axe and things- saw? Are you misreading the name "Bruno"? And saying "Broon"!? ...Bruno's wrench you absolute moron! Bruno! His name is Bruno!!

i'd rather not

  • The tensions over Mark's organizational system finally come to a head; as Mark explores the nearby islands, Bob changes the majority of the signage to jokes like "Mark Poopy," "Bob Sux 2", and "#BlameWade". When Mark returns, he flips out...over someone putting beets and watermelon seeds in the chest clearly labelled "Ingots". Immediately afterwards, however, he sees the changed signage and loses his shit
    Mark: [Blubbering hysterically] Sweepnet is not "Shoulder"- [Remembers the chest's name has been changed] It's not "Wade," noooo...
    Bob: Okay, wait a minute, I'm with you on a lot of this: "Sweepnet" not being "Shoulder" is the most arbitrary and capricious shit I've ever heard.
    Mark: It's not "Shoulder!" I didn't make a "Tools" chest yet!
    Wade: [Laughing] "Sweepnet is not 'Shoulder'" is where we really broke him.
    • Mark is so ruined by this incident that he calls for an emergency meeting to demand an apology from Bob. It doesn't go well.
      Bob: Okay, I am sorry...that your stupid naming system offended me-
      [Heavy metal music starts]
      Mark: [Pulls out an axe and rushes to the lower level] I'M BREAKING EVERYTHING!!!

are we safe...?

  • Mark has to operate the crane game at Tangaroa and really wants to give up at that point as he hates the control scheme of the minigame.
  • The boys encounter the flooded and electrified plantation area and end up wrongly timing to jump across the platforms, resulting in them getting electrified.
  • The "bear sucking a penis nose" painting that Wade finds. The trio then wonder at how the people at Tangaroa adopted it as art.
  • Bob ends up finding Mark in one of the buildings and both Bob and Wade just tell him "Oh hi, Mark."
  • During a quiet part, Mark, Bob, and Wade start to wonder if humanity is the creation or child of some divine alien race, and quickly decide that humanity must be a profound disappointment. It Makes Sense in Context.
    Mark: Do you think that there's an alien species out there that's, like, the "Golden Child" and, you know, God spends all of his time on that one race? It's like "Oh, you're so perfect", and we're, like, with our nukes and our forks n' plastic n' shit, and we're just like "Duuuh, ya proud, dad?"
    Bob: Wait, I'm sorry, our forks?

trouble at sea...

  • When Mark and Wade rush to deliver their loot from a salvaged raft to Bob, Mark keeps swiping Wade's loot whenever the latter tosses it at Bob. He does this six times without Wade catching on, and Bob finally has to break the news to him.
    Bob: Uh... well... I have to say, Mark is the only one who actually successfully handed me anything!
    (Bob and Mark start laughing)
    Wade: DID YOU ROB ME!?!

    Red Dead Redemption 2 
  • Throughout the first part, Mark just gushing over Dutch and his leadership constantly and obnoxiously calling him boss is just hilarious.
  • Over the course of the entire playthrough, Mark leads his poor horse Shwoompl head-first into so many obstacles and cliff dives that one could make a drinking game out of it, blaming the game's pathfinding roughly half the time it happens. Bonus points if the resulting injuries end up killing Arthur.
  • There’s a point where he’s doing a main story quest and John Marston runs into a tree while on his horse.
  • In Part 2, he encounters a man whose horses get loose. Just as he's talking to the man, he unintentionally knocks him down and starts tying him up.
  • Part 3 has Mark's reaction to the hilarious mission, "A Quiet Time," which has him use his Drunk Santa voice for Arthur the drunker he gets in the mission.
  • In Part 6, Mark does a side quest for Beau Gray and Penelope Braithwaite. Penelope mentions that if her parents ever found out she was in love with Beau, they'd send her off to live somewhere terrible...like Ohio. Mark, who's from Ohio originally, is offended.
  • Part 10 has Mark's Oh, Crap! reaction at Sean's death.
    • Also in Part 10, where he walks out of a clothing store and an NPC comments on his clothing, which is a three piece suit and a bear hat.
      Mark: Oh, my god... I have never looked better than the way I look at this exact moment—
      NPC: What an appalling way to look!
      [Long Beat as Mark stares at the NPC]
      Markiplier: I'll fucking kill you! I'll fucking kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill your whole family! I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll KILL YOU!
      [Another long Beat as Mark loots the man's body]
      Mark: FUCK YOU.
  • Speaking of the bear hat, whenever it gets shot off Arthur's head, Mark starts panicking and looking for it, even when there's still enemies shooting at him. He also develops something of a Berserk Button towards the game forcing Arthur to change into something else for the sake of advancing the story.
  • After a few more minor incidents where various NPCs question Mark's taste in hats and clothing, he finally gets a compliment from one of them in part 13.

    Resident Evil 2 
  • Despite all his bravado and his past experience with RE:7, Mark still gets jumped multiple times and Screams Like a Little Girl.
  • Late in Part 1, after having liberally spent most of his bullets and healing items, Mark comments that he really shouldn't be using full heal items after taking only level of damage. He then explains that he's going to do it anyway because that's his idiot tax.
  • After finding that Marvin has turned into a zombie, Mark refuses to kill him, instead kiting him around and yelling at him reproachfully as if he were a disobedient puppy.
  • Mark's reaction to his first time confronting the Tyrant. He doesn't bother being brave, he just runs.
  • In Part 2, after making a wrong turn while being chased by the Tyrant, Markiplier decides to just let it kill him to reset himself back to the station main hall. He then learns that the Tyrant had gone to take a bathroom break, and seems slightly confused that it chose the women's restroom.
  • When encountering and then fleeing the giant sewer alligator, Mark and Leon find themselves on the same page.
    Mark: Ah! Holy shit! Oh god!
    Leon: Holy shit!
    Mark: EXACTLY! That's what I'm saying!
  • Mark's conversation with the pink bunny toy while playing as Sherry:
    Mark: Hello, Bunny, it is good to see you again. I just spoke with Bear, and I spoke with the beautiful doll in my room. Will you be my friend?!
    Bunniplier(In the darkest, booming, demonic voice imaginable): Yes, I will be your friend. I will be your friend until the end of days. Just remember, stay away from the mustachioed man, the man that looks like Mario from the real life Mario Brothers movie. Ignore him. Run away as fast as you can. Be free, lest your soul be trapped here in amongst the toys...
  • Mark's conversation with the pink bunny toy while playing as Claire:
    Mark: Well, Mister Bunny have you seen anybody here?
    Bunniplier: Yes. Everywhere there are the spirits of the damned. You would be remiss not to not watch out for the bad guys in the darkness. The itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny bits of blood everywhere should be an indication that something bad has happened here...
  • After he beats the third form of G in the Claire B scenario, Mark decides in what sounds like a drunken Rousing Speech to go into the final boss battle (he thinks it will be the Tyrant) with nothing but his basic pistol and a knife on a lark, as he hasn't used any of the gunpowder he found throughout the scenario. In a game where two gunpowders make 12 bullets, he makes almost 300 pistol rounds. When he ends up fighting G4 he realized his plan might have a slight flaw in it; he doesn't know if he can actually harm it with the pistol and knife. Goes from hilarious to awesome when he uses every bullet and actually beats G by knifing it to death.
  • When Mark sees the final form of Birkin, his reaction was how terrifying Birkin looks. His next immediate response is to throw himself into it just to see what happens.
  • During the final segment of the Leon A campaign, Mark receives a rocket launcher. After using it to defeat the final form of the Tyrant, he comes across a doorway filled with zombies. When he attempts to blow them up with a rocket, he instead somehow misses every single one.
  • Resident Evil 2 Animated has Freeze-Frame Bonus cameos from zombie versions of Arin and Danny, Jon, The Nostalgia Critic, Pewdiepie and Jacksepticeye.

    Resident Evil 7: Biohazard 
  • Mark says "I'm a brave boy!" whenever he's gonna go into something scary, with the first instance being when he meets Psycho!Mia. He then switches over to "I'm a brave girl" while playing as Mia.
    • At one point, while shouting "I'm a brave boy!" he bolts through a door in a safe room, only to be confused. He turns back, and realizes he went through the wrong door.
      Mark: Uh oh, stairs. Stairs are the birth of the Big Brave Boy!
  • Mark Screaming at Squick over Marguerite's second boss form. Especially when he sees the hive between her legs!
  • Mark has WAY too much fun popping all of the balloons in Lucas' death trap, to the point of imagining Lucas watching him on the monitors thinking "What an idiot."
  • Mark unintentionally creates an amazing setup for Marguerite's entrance in the third house:
  • Mark is so on-edge in Part 4 that as he's walking about outside, he gets startled by a bush.
  • Upon finding some healing herbs, he decides that "at least I can smoke my troubles away."
  • Part 6 has Mark going through the Happy Birthday segment without watching the tape, and dies as a result. After he respawns, he goes through the puzzle with all the answers. Mark wonders if it is a game mechanic where you figure out the puzzle, die, and then does it again without dying. Sound familiar?
    Mark: I got knowledge from the FUTURE baby!
  • After the animatronic clown carves the word "LOSER" into the player character's arm in Lucas's deathtrap:
    Mark: [looking at the arm] ...I can't tell what this says. Does this say "Lucas" on it?
  • He tries to read one of the in-game documents before getting jumped by The Molded.
    Mark (sheepishly): ...I thought that door was closed...
  • His reaction when Grandma!Eveline grows to Kaiju size.
    Mark: AH NO GRANDMA! I DON'T WANT A HUG! YOU SMELL LIKE BEN-GAY!
  • Mark's reactions to punching the Molded in the Not a Hero DLC.
  • During The End of Zoe DLC, Mark is heavily amused by Joe's makeshift punching bag and his survival manual.
    Mark: Please tell me this is going to be all fisticuffs...
    • Also this quote when he first plays as Joe: "Is this what being tall feels like?"
  • And then there is his priceless reaction on finding out how to create first aid (combining "grub" with the fluid). Needless to say Mark breaks into laughter.
  • Mark's reactions to finding grub, a boxer effigy and a tree branch inside breakable boxes.
    Mark: The tree branch was bigger than the box! Who would put a branch in the box?
  • Mark breaking down laughing over Joe's method of getting the cure for Zoe's infection.
    Mark: No-(snickers) Not everything’s solved by punching, Joe! Joe!

    Resident Evil Village 
  • Mark's obsession with Lady Dimitrescu carries through the Let's Play to the point where every single thumbnail contains her. Yes, even after she dies and leaves the plot. Yes, this means Crystal Dimitrescu is thus shoehorned into the image in the thumbnails for parts after her defeat. Part 10 even runs off a small piece of lore about the Lady being revealed as an excuse for the thumbnail image to be angry, post-stab Dimitrescu and for the episode to be named "A TINY CLUE OF LADY DIMITRESCU'S ORIGIN" rather than featuring anything relating to Heisenberg or his factory, which would be of more obvious relevance. He goes through all the game never selling the Crystal Dimitrescu.
  • Mark's first video about the game, "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME ABOUT THIS?" shows his reaction to Lady Dimitrescu and ranting about why none of his fans ever told him.
  • The first official video has him being accidentally accurate in his rambling that Mia isn't really dead.
  • His oh-so-subtle eagerness to meet Lady Dimitrescu as quickly as possible shines through the entire video in his continuous monologue during the first part, all the way up to his encounter with the first Lycan.
  • His reaction to Lady Dimitrescu hanging Ethan up in a corner of the room, through the hands or no, meaning he is now higher up than she is:
    Mark: Ha-haa! Now the shoe's on the other foot!
  • Part 4: Mark absolutely loses it in frantic laughter when seeing Ethan's very simple "solution" on how to fix a cut-off hand, to the point he had to pause just to get it all out first.
    Mark: (breaking down laughing and gasping for air) How do you explain that one? What kind of magic liquid is it? (gasping for more air) What is it?
  • In Part 5, Mark's reaction to Lady Dimitrescu transforming into a Draconic Abomination. If you thought he'd be repulsed, well, you don't know Mark.
    Mark: Now, see, that's some power I can respect!
  • After Dimitrescu dies, Mark speculates that maybe it wasn't actually her. The game then immediately gives him an item: a crystalline corpse labeled "Crystal Dimitrescu". Mark laughs his ass off at the timing.
    • Mark refuses to sell Crystal Dimitrescu, and thereafter she becomes a Companion Cube for him with flavors of denial that she's really gone.
  • Markiplier is afraid of mannequins and Creepy Dolls. Which, as one can imagine, puts him in a very good mood when he enters the mansion of Lady Beneviento. His escalating This Is Gonna Suck reactions, especially when his Genre Savvy aspects start acting up and he starts expecting a Jump Scare of a monster attacking him, are a joy to watch. As is his I Knew It! speech when he's completely right, though he was expecting a mannequin rather than a Fetus Terrible.
  • After narrowly escaping the baby, Mark opens his inventory to consult Dimitrescu's corpse for comfort, only to find that it's been confiscated along with his weapons. His mood immediately shifts to Roaring Rampage of Revenge.
  • In Part 8, when getting a scenic view that includes Castle Dimitrescu, Mark takes out the Crystal Dimitrescu to have "her" admire the view, and turns her around and is surprised by the statue's ample backside (accompanied by a zoom on said backside) and proceeds to tell her to admire the view as well, while transparently stalling for more time to stare at her butt.
  • Mark spends a good portion of part 11 complaining about the No OSHA Compliance of Heisenburg's factory, specifically the confusing, hazardous layout and loads of fragile equipment that tends to fail catastrophically at the slightest hit.
    Mark: If one bullet can cause all this destruction, this thing was really just hanging on by a thread!
  • All of this is made funnier by the fact that Mark clearly hates Heisenburg, relentlessly mocking him whenever he appears or his voice is heard. At one point he even calls him a "neckbeard" and reads a journal entry in a bad impression of his voice.
  • His incredulous reaction after Chris finally explains what's going on and asks Ethan to lay low.
    Mark: You're gonna give me a tank with a chainsaw on it and tell me to stay under the radar?!
  • Mark's reaction to Mother Miranda ripping out his heart.
    Mark: Oh. Ow. Hey. Waitaminute. I don't know if I can die. Hey I need that. I think anyway. I think, anyway.
    Subtitle: Dr. Mark I. Plier is not a licensed physician and his medical advice is not approved by the FDA. Consult your doctor to see if living without a heart is right for you.
  • Mark spends half of the climatic boss battle complaining about his weapons not doing enough damage (because he never bothered to replace them with better ones) and the other half dishing out annoyed No, You responses to Miranda's Boss Banter.
  • In Part 9 of his Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach playthrough, Mark interrupts the action to show off a Christmas gift he got from Amy: a Lady Dimitrescu mousepad that includes textured boobs.

    SCP - Containment Breach 
Mark has been playing SCP – Containment Breach since the early days of his channel, and there is much hilarity to be found in his videos.
  • Any time he gets cornered or trapped by SCP-173. In one playthrough, SCP-173 hops through an office window rather then use the door as expected...
    Mark: No! NO! NOOOOO—AAAAAUUURRGHG (neck snap)
    • And in another, Mark faces it down as his eye meter depletes to zero...
      Mark: I'm taking you with me! KEEP LOOKING AT ME! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA— (neck snap)
    • In Part 8, Mark finally gets the jump on 173 via surveillance cam, then does an end run around it. (Or does he?)
      Mark: Imma getcha. Imma getcha. Imma getcha! I SEE YA! I SEE YA! I SEE YA! Oooohh yeah, like a boss! (neck snap)
    • Part 10, "Worst Scare Ever", is so named for 173 zipping right in front of Mark, who grips in forehead in pain from so much screaming. Finally, he just saunters up to it.
      Mark: (snarls angrily) HI!♥
      *pokes statue*
      Mark: 'SCUSE ME!
      *173 doesn't budge*
      Mark: Fine, kill me! (neck snap)
    • Poor Mark just can't win. In one instance he was sure that he'd eluded 173, only to open a sliding door and see the statue leering at him. Mark had just blinked before opening the door.
  • Mark's first run-in with SCP-106, resulting in Inelegant Blubbering.
  • Anytime Mark refers to 173 and 106 as "Billy" and "Radical Larry", respectively. Especially if he's running for his life as he does it.
  • After SCP-096 was added to the game, Mark practically waves his hands and dances in front of it, then barricades himself behind three doors to see if it gives chase. Yep.
    Mark: (wiggles eyebrows) ...Is he coming after me? YEAH HE'S COMIN AFTER ME! AAAAGGGH (ripped to shreds)
  • In this episode, Mark learns why you shouldn't annoy armed guards.
    Mark: WOOOOO!
    (Guard shoots Mark in the face)
    Guard: Glad that's over with.
  • In Part 13, he spends several minutes admiring a new part of the map he's just discovered.
    Mark: What the hell is... What the hell is this? What is this? There's a camera... Hi! And it's frickin' following me and I hear one-
    * Gas suddenly starts getting pumped into the room en masse*
    Mark: Ah! Aw crap, what the- what- what is this?
    * Mark finds a piece of paper revealing that the room he's in belongs to SCP-682.*
    Mark: Oh no! *starts running*
    * SCP-682 roars from behind a wall*
  • This random, disturbing glitch Mark happened to discover.
  • In one episode, Mark finds himself cornered by SCP-049 but manages to get around it and into an elevator. Mark is pretty calm about this... until he realizes 049 has followed him into the elevator. Cue Mark freaking out and running in circles trying to keep it from touching him while waiting for the elevator to reach the next floor.
    Mark: NO! This is not how I die! This is NOT! HOW! I! DIE! STOOOOOOOOP! BAD TOUCH! BAD TOUCH!

    Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe 
  • On his first playthrough Mark decides to obey the Narrator.
    Ordinarily I would be an antithesis of whatever you'd want me to be and my instincts in my prior life was to go the opposite direction. But this time, knowing like YOU LITTLE SHITS never follow directions and being on the other side of this argument and knowing how frustrating it could be even though I have aaaall this amazing fun stuff planned RIGHT OVER THEEEREnote  and you'd just be like "No I don't wanna go this way" when even when I didn't plan for that eventuality and maybe I did planned for it and I put something fun over therenote  knowing that you'd counter my... Initial assessment you will not get the best out of me.
  • Narrator is obviously not happy with Mark staying in a broom closet. Mark however is quick to point out that if Narrator didn't wanted him to go there, he wouldn't made it only other open doors.
  • EXTREEEEME BATHROOMS
  • Mark, dedicated to doing the Golden Ending even repeats words after Narrator. Only then to press ON on the mind control, starting Countdown ending.
    Narrator: If you want to throw my story of tracks, you're going to have to do better than that.
    Markiplier: (frustrated) I WASN'T TRYYYING TO!!!
  • Mark dancing to elevator music.
  • "Don't cry because it's over. Cry because it happened."
  • As Mark keeps pushing the Skip Button there is nothing but darkness and beeping sound.
  • Mark dancing to Narrator's Madness Mantra.
  • Mark being excited over JIM button.
    JIIIIIIIIM!!!!!
  • Mark dancing to hole music.
  • After seeing the opening menu of Stanley Parable 2 Mark realizes that the corridors are lighted the same color as his studio.
  • When Mark enters the Broom Closet again, this time with a bucket, Narrator wants him to tell closet and all the beverages in it that he won't give them bucket.
    "Broom closet, if you want this bucket you can have it! I had it for maybe a minute!"
  • Mark randomly singing Adventure Line™ song.
  • "Is this bucket a nazi?"

    Subnautica 
  • During his Subnautica playthrough, he starts to celebrate in his Seamoth as he finishes a harvest of never-before-obtained materials... and then promptly crashes into a boulder, destroying the vehicle.
  • He encounters a Reaper Leviathan, and while gingerly navigating around it he trash-talks it. As if it actually heard him, the Reaper Leviathan proceeds to attack him, destroying his Seamoth (again) and leaving him stranded in its territory.
  • Mark gets attacked by Bonesharks while in a different Seamoth, and tries frantically to dock it into the safety of the Cyclops. However, he keeps ramming it into the wrong part of the Cyclops, ending in another Seamoth's destruction.
  • While scouting out the Aurora, he hears the sounds of something knocking on his newly-built Seamoth. As he wonders what's happening, he gets attacked by a Reaper Leviathan. Unlike his previous encounters, he and the Seamoth eventually make it out in one piece.
  • He frequently lands himself in various predicaments, usually by not bringing enough of food, water, or building materials, and not having the means to conveniently restore them, forcing him to detour or abandon his plans. For instance, he is forced to leave a storage locker half-complete because his Builder tool ran out of power and he didn't have any spare batteries nor had easy access to its materials. He has also forgotten about his oxygen meter a few times, leading to some embarrassing deaths.
  • His Cyclops that he names Big Box Barry is painted a bright yellow, and eventually hosts a number of lockers with the names of various Youtube commenters on it. As he begins to live in his Cyclops more than his stationary bases, a commenter eventually noted that "[Markiplier and his viewers] all live in a Yellow Submarine".
  • While repairing his Cyclops after using it to ram a boneshark, he muses over how bodyslamming can be used to solve a lot of other life problems.
  • After a Warper appears near one of his bases, he chases it off by attempting to ram it with Big Box Barry, unwittingly bumping into the structure in the process. After the Warper leaves, he enters his base, only to find it flooded. He never makes the realization that he caused the damage.
  • After losing another Seamoth to a Reaper ambush, he rushes off in Big Box Barry at full speed, with the system AI giving him warnings about his engine temperatures reaching dangerous levels. The following exchange occurs:
    Cyclops AI: Warning: Engine overheat.
    Markiplier: Warning, engine overheat. I'm a little bitch, thinking about how my engine is overheating. We gotta move fast, baby! We gotta get to where we gotta get!
    Cyclops AI: Warning: Engine heat critical.
    Markiplier: What are you gonna do, blow up?
    Cyclops AI: Fire detected!
  • Late in the playthrough, Mark decides to test a rumor about feeding a Reaper Leviathan a Peeper to keep it off your scent. After an uncomfortable close encounter, Mark discovers it works, but for the next minute he only utters "It took the Peeper!" as he scrambles to safety.
  • He establishes a Running Gag of pissing himself whenever his Stillsuit reclaims water, and even interrupts himself, regardless of the situation, to comment on it. At the end of his playthrough, he fills his time capsule with bags of reclaimed water and leaves an associated epitaph.
    AND HERE LIES MARKIPLIER
    He came to this rock with nothing but his wits and a full bladder.
    He leaves the only thing that mattered to him behind:
    His piss...

    Surgeon Simulator 

    There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension 
  • A few particularly amusing The Television Talks Back moments, such as:
    Game: The cat is hungry. Meow, meow.
    Mark: I don't have a cat.
    Game: Yes, your conscience is telling you that you have a cat.
  • Getting a little too into the "Shake My Head" song, even singing along and headbanging to it.
  • At one point, Mark goes off on a tangent about how he almost broke his nose moving a chair.
  • During the rap segment in Chapter 5, he attempts to rap along with the music. He's... not very good at it.
    Mark: [after multiple attempts at improv lyrics] Ah! Ugh! Kill me! Ah! Kill me! I wanna die!
  • He gets a little too emotional during Gigi's song, even waving his phone with the flashlight on. It takes him until after the lyrics are over to realize he's supposed to be solving a puzzle.
  • During the emotional echo of the game's intro following Gigi's disappearance right after her song, Mark gets increasingly fed up with Game's sorrow.
    Game: Nobody leaves me little love notes..
    Mark: Shut up!
  • After Mark discovers the phone app that controls appliances around the Creator's home, he rather predictably starts pressing everything and anything to see what they do. He sets the room's lights to "Boost Mode".
    Creator: The light is on the fritz! *reaches down to turn it off manually* Gah! I burned myself!
    Mark: [giggles]
  • Once the Creator starts transferring Gigi back to his computer from his phone, he turns to his right and screams before bolting off-screen followed by a vacuum cleaner. A bit further in the background he runs goofily across the screen again, still being chased by the vacuum. The abruptness of this sequence of events and the cheesy acting is too much for Mark.

    Turbo Dismount 
  • Chicken riding.
    Mark: [singing] I'm a little chicken; Short and stout...
    (A few seconds later, still singing) Yeah! I'm gonna make it! (crunch!) No I'm not!
  • "(in a creepy voice) Hello, everybody, how are you doing? Nice day to steal your soul... Nice day to enter the abyss! Aaaah-! (back to normal voice) Oh. Oh, okay then."
  • In Part 7, Mark puts an even more ridiculous and hilarious manip of his face on the dummy, resulting in his commentary constantly getting derailed as he continues to burst out laughing at it. It results in him eventually breaking down in tears of laughter as his character straddles a semi with the same goofy grin on its face. Even the subtitles for the video plead the viewer to call an ambulance for Mark.
  • Mark finds a certain pose on the demolition crane.
  • His increasingly desperate attempts to destroy Mr. Stalwart. He's ultimately forced to use the level "Mystery Boost Pad", which has a massive mine cluster under a boost pad that never fails to smash riders to bits on the skybox.
    Mark: Everybody hang on, I have an idea, and when Mark has an idea, you know things are about to go terribly wrong.

    Undertale 
  • Mark's attempts at voicing Toriel in Undertale. He starts with a deep ominous voice, then switches to a higher one when he realizes Toriel is female, then gives her some bizarre mutation of a Scottish accent.
    • When he meets Flowey he opts to give him a friendly Bugs Bunny-esque voice and is genuinely frightened when Flowey switches face and almost kills him.
    • When Toriel gives him the Dummy training fight Mark accidentally destroys the Dummy figuring out the controls, and is absolutely delighted when he learns that he can 'flirt' with Moldsmal.
    • Upon meeting Sans and Papyrus, he gives them insanely overdone Southern and British accents respectively.
    • While he gets Papyrus' voice down on the first try he finds Sans' voice a bit harder to pin down, and has to stop several times to get the accent right.
    • He also gets the easter egg where Alphys calls your phone by accident while trying to order a pizza.
  • Mark's and Tyler's first livestream episode of Undertale has them deciding that the name of their character should be Peepo.
  • Mark and Tyler return with Undertale part 2, which plays out like a constantly switching Boke and Tsukkomi Routine with Mark acting like a Jerkass suggesting that they kill everyone while Tyler is the Straight Man, or Mark showing his more in-depth knowledge and theory crafting with the game while Tyler is fumbling around.
    • When Tyler's first attempt to pet the dog couple proves fruitless, Mark goes into his Jerkass character.
      Mark: "(Reading Game text) The Dogs sniff you again... But you smell just as weird as before." "So congratulations, you didn't do a damn thing to change anything in life. And you're stuck."
    • The two get to the infamous Tile Floor "puzzle", where Mark reads overly long instructions to Tyler completely seriously.
      Tyler: (trying to remember): "Orange is... to make you smell like oranges..."
      Mark: "Yellow is electrocuting. Blue is water."
      Tyler: "Green is... Uh..."
      Tyler: "...It doesn't matter, just walk across."
      Both break down laughing
    • When the two reach the ice floor puzzle, Mark lets Tyler try to figure out. He mistakes the lighter parts of ice for snow, which causes them to fall off and restart the puzzle.
      Tyler: "Well, I didn't know you could fall off that edge! It looked like snow all the way around-"
      Mark: "Nuh nuh nuh nuh nuuuuh nuh nuuuh nuuuh!"
    • Tyler's surprise when the Greater Dog shows its true form.
      Mark: "He's like Reinhardt inside of Reinhardt's armor."
    • And once they pet it to 100% pet-capacity...
      Mark: "It's so cute... It's contented... Should we kill it now?
    • They then meet Gyftrot, which Tyler correctly suggests they undecorate him to make him feel better. Mark refuses, and decides to pile on more decorations on the next turn. When it turns out to be a pair of ridiculous googly eyes, Mark and Tyler break down laughing.
    • After undecorating Gyftrot, Mark excitedly chooses to Gift him... only for excite to turn into horror as it makes him give 35 Gold.
      Mark: "Wait, no! Hang on! Wait! I take that back! I need that Gold! I regret it! No! Can I have that back, please! No!!"
    • Upon realizing he can't get that money back, Mark muses if he can kill Gyftrot and get it back instead.
    • Before going to fight Papyrus, Mark wonders why the player character doesn't need to sleep much.
      Mark: "I bet this child is a cyborg sent by the humans just to wreck up the place down here... or learn compassion and love!
      Tyler: "Or it's a ghost and that's why it doesn't sleep very much."
      Mark: "...Why is every- Not everything has to be a ghost!"
      Tyler: "Er...... OooooOOOooOOoooOOoooo!
      Mark: "No! I'm not 'Woooo'-ing with you this time!"
    • Upon defeating Papyrus, Mark voices his next few lines replacing all the vowels with long U's. Quoting it doesn't do it justice.
    • Mark constantly demanding that they pick the mean dialogue options when "dating" Papyrus and his amused frustration when Papyrus keeps mistaking them for compliments or taking them in a positive way.
  • Part 3 of Undertale has Mark and Tyler start off giving Undyne a more dramatic voice, then decide to give her a more nasally one once she reveals her face, Corpsing all the while.
    • Mark becomes exasperated when the chat asks him to backtrack to Temmie Village, and for the rest of the stream insists that "No one likes Tem."
      "Screw you, Temmie Village."
    • According to Mark, the "dog residue" is actually the Annoying Dog pooping into your inventory.
  • Part 4 of Undertale:
  • Part 5 of Undertale has Mark voicing the Cute Monster Girl Muffet as an old man.
    • When the duo manage to skip over Muffet's boss fight, Mark despairs as he realizes he won't get to see what Muffet means by her pet and so he tries desperately to get her to fight so that they can.
      Mark and Tyler: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!"
      Mark: "I've ruined it! I've ruined it! I ruined that!"
      Mark: (Trying to pay Muffet) "Take my damn money! TAKE MY DAMN MONEY!"
    • When Mark finally realizes they aren't going to experience the boss fight, he and Tyler start Flipping the Bird at her with wild expressions.
      Mark: "This is my spider dance!"
    • They get to Mettaton's singing scene, with Mark actually singing the parts. He actually does a pretty good job until...
      Mark: "They'll put you - In the dungeon. - It'll su-HAHAHAHAH-uck - And then you'll die a lo-HAHAHAH-ot!
  • Part 6 of Undertale has Mark and Tyler talk to Sans outside the Hotel, who then invites them into the restaurant. Mark gets savvy over the nature of the choice in the game, thinking he'll be put through a cutscene anyway...
    Mark: *in a weird voice* "I'm buuuusy. I ain't gunna do daaat. Der's no way in heeellll I'm gonna do daaat!"
    *Rejects Sans*
    Sans: "well, have fun in there."
    Mark: "Oh-o, shit!"
    • Mark's voice for Snowdrake's father (who speaks in a different accent) has him suddenly shift his voice from normal to... something whenever Snowdrake Sr.'s accent shows up.
    • When they finally see the receptionist of the restaurant, they react accordingly.
      Mark: "Remember Snowman Drake? Mandrake Snow? Snow? Snowd- *finally sees receptionist*"
      Mark & Tyler: "EEEEEUUUUUUUHHHHHAWUGHWUGHWUGHWAH..."
      Mark: "EEEUUUUGH..."
      Tyler: (as receptionist) "I'm the original Teletubby!"
    • When they meet Bratty & Catty, Mark chooses to voice Catty while Tyler voices Bratty. Tyler voices Bratty in a strained falsetto while Mark does Catty in a Surfer Dude voice. And then Mark briefly goes Southern when Catty mentions she found a gun in the dumpster.
    • Mark is understandably disturbed by Burgerpants' face, and so gives him in a constantly panicked voice.
    • As Burgerpants is telling them about how he tried making himself more like Mettaton, Mark outright says that it was to make his ding-dong bigger instead.
    • When Mark flips the switch during the intro phase to Mettaton's boss fight, causing the screen to white out and play the infamous OOHH YEEES~, Mark suddenly leans forward with a very curious face.
    • During their second try at the fight, Mark eats the ramen, result in the infamous ramen gag. Mark's reaction to the measly 4 HP it heals is understandable.
    • Near the start of the third attempt, Tyler comes back with a cone and puts it on Mark.
    • During the same attempt, Mark tries to heal up, and accidentally eats the Snowman Piece. Cue Tyler and Mark sitting open-mouthed in Stunned Silence... before running into the bombs on purpose to achieve a Game Over and revert that incident. And during said Game Over?
  • Part 7 of Undertale involves Asgore being given an Arnold Schwarzenegger voice that eventually becomes worse with each attempt.
    • Mark's and Ethan's honest to genuine gawping expressions when Flowey kills Asgore.
    • After their "date" with Alphys, Mark and Tyler notice the game started to lag and paused for a moment to figure it out. They then notice a reflection in the TV coming from the one behind them playing random adverts and get into an argument with Ethan as he tried to turn it off note . Doubles as a Failed a Spot Check as this was happening a lot earlier but no one noticed (or in Ethan's case, just didn't say anything).
    • The chuckles increase when a Subway advert plays and both Ethan and Tyler try to hide it while Mark just starts shouting meal deals out loud.

    Until Dawn 

    Yandere Simulator 
  • Markiplier's Yandere Simulator debug build playthroughs has Mark get into character as a Stalker with a Crush surprisingly quickly.
    Mark: Your hair. Would look great. On my wall. *snaps picture of Senpai* Thanks.
  • Mark reacts with horror the first time he kills a girl, then dumps the evidence without burning it. The result is what you'd expect.
    Mark: (upon reading the Game Over screen where Yandere-chan is caught) Wait a minute! What? No! No! No! BUT I BURNED THE BODY. Oh, I didn't burn the body, I just dumped it.
  • The outro to the first episode is a parody of Dragon Ball Z's next episode previews. It becomes even funnier when he finds the Super Saiyan hairstyle.
  • This exchange from the third episode:
    Teacher: How dare you walk into my classroom looking like that! Do you think this school is a joke?
    Mark: You're racist against Super Saiyans.
  • Mark's Cold-Blooded Torture methods are... interesting.
  • When he finds the Undertale references (about 11:15 in video #6), he reacts with a pure Oh, Crap! expression, realizing that this will only mean people will keep bugging him to continue playing the game.note 
    Mark: "Knowing the mouse might one..." oh, no, it's an Undertale reference. RUN! RUN, MARKIPLIER! THE COMMENTS ARE FILLING UP WITH PEOPLE DEMANDING THAT YOU PLAY THE GAME! AAAAAAAAAH!
  • Pops up again after his discovery of Bad Time Mode in episode 10 (about 1:01 to 1:06).
  • Mark becomes horrified when he realizes Senpai can die in the Easter Egg modes. Because "Ebola mode" causes people to die when he gets near, this causes an ever-increasing pile of dead bodies right behind him as he's freaking out.
  • Mark's casual conversations with the demons are a hoot.
    Demon: A mortal?
    Mark: Uh-huh.
    Demon: Here?
    Mark: Meh.
    Demon: How curious.
    Mark: Eh, not really, I murdered people. Whatever.
    Demon: Do you wish to borrow my power?
    Mark: Yeah, sure, give it to me.
