- The first few seconds of Markiplier CAUGHT RED HANDED!!
has Mark reveal himself as a Brony!note
- Using stupidity as a method of procrastination.
- The 7 Second Challenge has this conversation in the intro, after everyone has been introduced:Mark: Be more enthused, Jesse.
Jesse: HI! [Screen rumbles, voice echoes slightly]
[everyone laughs]- Wade dancing like an angry swan. Gweek!
- This:Mark: [reading challenge] Be a chair for the person holding the phone.
Matthias: What? No...
Mark: [gets on his lap and begins to lose his balance] Shit...
[Matthias shoves him off. There's a crash]
Mark: Jesus!
- The Balloon Roulette Challenge, but in particular:Mark: (Spinning barrel): Arin, I just wanna say I've been a big fan of you since I was a young lad. Watched all your stuff.
Egoraptor: You’re like the John Lennon guynote .
(Mark aims the gun, the balloon explodes, scaring everyone)
Mark: (Laughing) No, I am the John Lennon guy! Noooooo! - "SPIDERS CAN'T SWIM" in which Mark, Ryan, and Matt take turns attempting to solve a rubik's cube in 2 minutes. Ryan completes his, but Matt and Mark both fail and are pushed backward into the pool. Amusingly, Chica appears to be concerned for them, prompting this line after Mark gets pushed in:Chica, save him!
- In Matthias' video, The Sound Effects Challenge, near the end of it, Wade keeps saying "FWOP", much to Markiplier's dismayMark: Are you Santa?
Wade: FWOP
Mark: ...SANTA, put it away! - Markiplier's Magic Touch, which starts out with Mark reuniting with his friends Cyndago and Wade, but quickly turns into what can only be described as somatosensory porn. Also counts as a Heartwarming Moment when Bob shows up at the end.
- Markiplier walks down the street. ...And EVERYTHING out of the ordinary happens.
- Haven't seen much of Markiplier recently? The Servant Grunt and SCP-173 explain why.
- All of A Day/Year in the Life of Markiplier, which is a collection of silly vlogs he made throughout that year. It's Mark being... Mark.
- In a "Reading your Comments" video, someone asks when Unnecessary Censorship is going to come back. Cue Mark sheepishly admitting that he'd forgotten it was a series he did.
- Mark tries the 50/50 challenge, which is a series of Reddit threads that contains a video or image of something either nauseating or pleasant, but you won't know until you click on it. Mark's videos of his attempts would be Nightmare Fuel for the descriptions. However, his reactions, plus the fact that the actual content is censored, makes it more hilarious if anything. His astonished relief when he encounters something pleasant is fun, too.
- Mark obviously didn't learn from the last time he made a bet about a punishment. What makes it is that this time he decides to call Tyler to inform him of what's happened without mentioning the bet he made, and the moment he mentions he lost Tyler goes "Oh, is there another punishment?"
- Making sand castles has never been more hilarious than this, especially when it starts off with Mark calling himself the "Sandy Vagina."
- Darkiplier VS AntiSepticEye. What is supposed to be an epic square-off between two evil alter-egos turns into hilarious cameos when other "dark" YouTuber alter-egos show up with similarly punny names such as TomSKAR, JacksKills and ABlazingPhil. All of them suddenly drop dead when a giant, demonic Chica confronts them, and Dark realizes he hijacked Mark before the dog had gotten her daily meal. Om nom nom commences.
- When everyone is dropping dead, most of them are either screaming, panicking, begging for help or futilely trying to fight back... except Dark Dan, who just kinda shrugs nonchalantly and falls over.
- Behold, probably the most random livestream Mark has ever made. The entire thing is just him sneaking around trying to record Ethan signing for fans without being spotted. Bonus points for the "I'm Tyler" hat.
- The 17 million subscriber video. As Mark tip-taps away on his computer and discovers that he hit 17 million, he immediately runs off to tell everyone... only to see that they're too busy celebrating Wade's birthday to care. What makes it so hilarious is that when they sing him happy birthday, they put extra emphasis on his name ("Happy birthday to WADE, happy birthday to WADE!") as if to make Mark feel even less significant. The video ends with a snapshot of everyone celebrating, while a distressed Mark sits in the sidelines (followed by the caption "Thanks for 17 million!!!" being X'ed out and replaced with a crudely-written "Happy birthday, Wade...")
- The end of this video (at Indy PopCon) calls back to the Goofy Goober song, including Bob not joining in and walking away at the end. While the Goofy Goober song is still hilarious, what clinches it is at the line 'We're all goofy goobers'. Mark literally drags in new buddy Jack. Literally drags him in. Doubles as a Heartwarming moment.
- A Date With Markiplier, a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure style video series Mark uploaded for Valentine's Day. It really has to be experienced fresh to appreciate.
- "MARKIPLIER BLOOPERS 2016", which is pretty much just a hilarious collection of goofs, antics, and innuendos that didn't end up in the final videos.
- Try Not to Smile Challenge Mark valiantly tries, but the baby emus and ostriches at the end break him. He releases a Big "NO!" on seeing them and screams that he doesn't want to see them grow, he wants them to stay small.
- His "Try Not to Laugh" Series as well. At one point, he despairs after over half a dozen MULTI-TRACK DRIFTING videos, shouting bigger and bigger "NO's!" with each one.
- Mark singing with his daschund Maggie. He actually starts out fairly well, except Maggie keeps licking at his mouth to interrupt him. When that fails, she starts howling to join him. Many YouTube comments mention their dogs listening to the video and getting confused.
- Tyler's First Edit, which has shades of The Office about it. Tyler's basically Dwight in this situation.
- The entirety of the Dry Ice Popsicle challenge, found in all its glory here and here. For context, Mark and Tyler have to play Rock Paper Scissors to decide which of them has to eat popsicles made of various unconventional substances, ranging from soda to tartar sauce. Some of the highlights include:
- The carrot smoothie popsicle. As Mark points out, they basically turned a liquid carrot back into a carrot.
- Mark's reaction to the chipotle garlic sauce popsicle:Mark: (face scrunched up) It's not bad... but it tastes wrong.
- The grand finale, the Bag of Horrors, made up of a sludge of all the parts of the popsicles they didn't eat at the time. Special mention goes to Mark's claim that if one of them vomits in the bag, they still have to use it anyway.
- From Arrow Dodge Challenge #3, Bob somehow manages to shoot the arrow over the neighbour's fence not once, but twice. The second time it happens, it goes through the window and breaks the neighbour's lamp! Cue Mass "Oh, Crap!" from everyone.
- Bob's promotional video of Dragon's Vale has him, Mark, and Wade have a really big misunderstanding.
- To commemorate reaching 16 million subscribers, Mark takes a Mental Age Test and bets that if his mental age is under 16, he'll let Ethan and Tyler give him a "punishment" of their choosing. Hoping to get a high enough age, he tries going for the "old people" answers throughout the test. He then ends up getting a mental age of seven.
- Tyler and Ethan got around to punishing Mark for the Mental Age bet. It's... way more elaborate than you'd expect. To be specific, they make Mark host a stage show about himself, where he's the usher, ticketmaster, merchandise and concession cashier (complete with hand-made "Markiplier Sucks" t-shirts), stagehand, and all of the roles. Special mention goes to the musical number about how Tyler is a better YouTuber than Mark.
- Tyler and Ethan got around to punishing Mark
- Mark decides to make Twitter banners for his fans based off their favorite things. However, of course one fan suggests "penis." Mark's reaction is hilarious, and what he comes up with is even more so.
- Mark gets sick and decides to embark on a 'try not to cringe' challenge, giving us this gem of a quote:My ability to give a f*** has been medicinally suppressed.
- Mark disciplines his "son" Tyler by telling him to go to his room (actually Chica's dog bed, and later a cage) and gives him a huge rock as dinner.
- Mark takes a series of quizzes to find out his YouTuber boyfriend/girlfriend. This being Mark, he manages to make it hilarious.
- At first he approves of getting Jenny because she has this video on her channelnote , only to realize that she also has several Undertale videos. Cue silent horror, and Mark deciding it wouldn't work out. Later, when he gets TheGabbieShow, he specifically searches her channel to find out if she likes it too. He cheers when nothing comes up.
- When he watches one of Gabbie's videos, he zooms in on her faint red streaks. Then when she dresses like an emo, Mark puts on his own emo makeup and shirt.
- Mark's introduction to the Peepo scene from Nanalan' is hilarious: first he looks visibly horrified, then cracks up towards the end.
- At first he approves of getting Jenny because she has this video
- For April Fool's Day, Markiplier released not two, but three hilariously Mundane Made Awesome videos. They involve:
- In one of his "Reading Your Comments" videos, Mark reads a comment demanding him to "entertain us." Mark does just that.
- An animated adaptation of Mark playing an Attack on Titan fangame goes as well as expected with Mikasa and Eren rolling their eyes at him.
- Mark has a tendency to upload completely random short videos involving Chica, without any context whatsoever. All of them can fit in some way or another.
- BOAT DOG! BOAT DOG! BOAT DOG! BOOOOAT DOG!
- PUNK DOG! Starring Chica wearing a mohawk wig and a guitar.
- GHOST DOG! GHOST DOG! GHOOOOST DOG! The stereotypical "spooky" background, Chica's facial expression, and Mark clearly holding Chica up sells it.
- This one has Chica's head on Snoop Dogg's body, with Mark's on the background dancers.
- BOAT DOG! BOAT DOG! BOAT DOG! BOOOOAT DOG!
- Chica is stoned on painkillers throughout the Chica Had Surgery video. It's a bit sad to see the normally bubbly Chica so out of it, but it gets funny when Mark reveals that she has been standing in one spot for fifteen minutes.
- The fact that Chica looks angry (despite being stoned) about being spayed makes that pretty funny, as well.
- From the Gingerbread House Building Challenge:
- Mark, Ethan, and Tyler all quickly start putting on easily the strangest accents ever conceived by a human and keep them up for the entire introduction sequence. Everything they say with said accents is absolutely hysterical.Mark: [starting up the accent] We have...we have gummy leaves. We have h-holly berries. We have lights for house. We have candy for house. [referring to frosting] And we have squeeze!...For squeeze!
[later...]
Ethan: [reading the ingredients on the box] ...may contain trace of peanut, treenut milk, and egg! [slams down box] I cannot eat this house, but god dammit, I can still build house!
Mark: He still build house! He no eat, though! He go starve for Christmas! But he not be sad, he be happy!
Ethan: Yes, I can be happy because I be not dead.
Mark: You'll be dead from starvation, but not from allergy.
Ethan: [corpsing] Not from allergy, that is correct. Explanation
[cut]
Ethan: Who has biggest squeeze?
Mark: [makes a noise best described as a mixture between vomiting and arousal while squeezing out frosting]
Ethan: Wow, that is nice squeeze!
Mark: [finishes noise]
Ethan: [screams for a solid 3 seconds while also squeezing]
[cut]
Ethan: [squeezing frosting onto Mark's nose] Put on nose for nice effect.
Mark: I am Rudolph, the semen-covered reindeer!- Even better is that this whole time, they were also trying to decide who would go first...only to remember they were all building at the same time.
- "I'm ready for the challenge! My name is Challenge McGee, and I'm here to challenge you to a FUCK-OFF!" ("Ethan, why?")
- After they finish building and are preparing to decorate, just...this happens.Mark: That was the fun-est stage! Did you have fun? If you did, SSSSSSSSSSMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON!
Ethan: CAN WE HIT ONE BILLION LIKES!?!? [smashes his house with his fist]
Mark: [laughing his ass off] You have to build that! What have you done!? What have you done!?
Ethan: [also laughing] That's the start of Stage 2, I have to-
Mark: [cutting him off] CAN WE GET TEN TRILLION LIKES!?!? [smashes Ethan's house again] RIGHT NOW!? [Mark's house falls apart] AAAAAAAA!
Ethan: CAN WE GET 115 MILLION LIKES!? [smashes Mark's house with both fists]
Mark: [shrieks again]- After this happened, Ethan is then punished via Mark and Tyler forcing him against a wall while they pelted him with dodgeballs. The moment after this "punishment" also brings us the return of Mark's Santa voice.Ethan: I'm sorry...
Mark: [at the same time] Santa does not...[slips into Santa voice] Santa does not appreciate your bullshit!
- After this happened, Ethan is then punished via Mark and Tyler forcing him against a wall while they pelted him with dodgeballs. The moment after this "punishment" also brings us the return of Mark's Santa voice.
- In light of the destruction of both Ethan and Mark's houses, the two of them decide to rebuild a house from the shambles as a team. The discussion of this quickly boils down to an "argument" where Mark and Ethan harshly compliment everything about Tyler, claiming it'll take both of them together to possibly beat him. This includes claiming he has both a huge and small dick at the same time.
- Tyler doesn't stop decorating his house when time is up.Ethan: Tyler, on your SATs, did you continue test-taking once they said "Hey, time's up, pencils down."?
Tyler: [ignores him]
Ethan: Tyler, when you were playing Water Polo, when the referee went "Hoot, hoot!" on his whistle, did you continue throwing that ball around?
Tyler: Of course.
Mark: Tyler, when you as a sperm hit the egg, did you keep burrowing in until you went out the other side? No. You stopped.
Ethan: You stopped.
Mark: You stopped. You won that race.
- Mark, Ethan, and Tyler all quickly start putting on easily the strangest accents ever conceived by a human and keep them up for the entire introduction sequence. Everything they say with said accents is absolutely hysterical.
- To celebrate 4 years of being a Let's Player, Markiplier proceeds to do a reaction video to the first video he did involving a face cam. Of course, he does this while sitting in a bathtub full of ice and eating 13(!) habaneros! Pain does little to describe what he went through!
- Mark gets slapped by both Felix and Sean as punishment for not getting a video up, although both of them are very hesitant to slap him.To Felix: Stop being a bitch and slap me.
Felix: Alright, say something mean, I can't just slap you, I don't know...
Mark: You didn't earn any of your subscrib- [WHACK]
Mark: [to Sean after slapping him very softly] Oh that was a bitch slap, c'mon hit me harder. - #SEXYMARK shows Mark making pancakes in the most over-the-top Fanservice-y way possible.
- In the "ALL OUT WAR" video Markiplier and MatPat fool around with some prop swords (as in whacking and being whacked by) and the exchanged dialogue is priceless.Mark: I happen to get hurt in a lot of videos that I make. It's really bizarre.
Matt: We suffer for our art.
Mark: ..."Art."
Matt: [Bursts out laughing]
Mark: Shut up. You pretentious prick. Make another FNaF video, you asshole. [Laughs] - Mark smears peanut butter on his face and proclaims "I'M KING OF THE SQUIRRELS!" as an 80K subscriber celebration video. It is later given a Call-Back in THE KING OF THE SQUIRRELS RETURNS after he underwent surgery. It was made as a way for Mark to ensure his subscribers that he was recovering well.Markiplier: *Clutching his stomach as he runs* I'M—ow—KING OF—ow—THE SQUIRRELS! Ow... Ow... Ow... note
- What do you get when Mark, Ryan, and Matt combine Photobooth with an ice bath? Gleeful, painful, sadistic fun!. And probably some of the most hilariously horrifying screams you'll ever hear!Ryan: Are those real screams?
Matt: YEAH! [screams incoherently some more] - Four words: Arrow to the Nuts!
- Mark and his buddies playing the "Whisper Challenge", aka, lip reading disaster. Hilarity Ensues.
- It starts going downhill from the third video.Mark: [reading tweet to Matthias] I'm white girl wasted.
Matthias: I'm a racist reindeer.
Tyler: I'm ready to eat you.
Wade: I'm pregnant, don't eat Jews. - And this one.Wade: I love the feeling of mac and cheese on my face.
Mark: I love feeling leather on my testicles.
Matthias: I love feet and leather testiballs.
Tyler: I love fecal matter. I can't help it. - And this one with Jesse. Particularly cause of Matthias's commentary.Matthias: Ducks are bloodthirsty little beasts.
Jesse: Chicks and alcohol never mixes. (Matthias: That's so not true!)
Wade: Soldier shits, oh baby fetuses. (Matthias: WHAT?!)
Mark: Don't jizz on my puppies please. (Matthias: WHAT?!)Mark: All I want for Christmas is popcorn.
Matthias: Only one for you, because I am busy getting popcorn.
Matt: I am the only one to bring home the Christmas ham.
Ryan: I'm going to go wash when I get home to see my baby. - The ending to each video is hilarious as well, with Matthias and Wade interrupting Mark by making kissing noises at the camera (and in Wade's case, actually kissing Mark's shoulder), bringing Mark's outro to a screeching halt.
- There is now a fourth.Wade: Chocolate puppy poopybutts.
Matt:Chocolate penis poopypants.
Ryan: Sean's penis pooped its pants.
Mark: Now I know you're fucking with me!
[Ryan repeats himself]
Mark: You can't be serious!
Ryan: That's what I saw! That's what I saw!
Mark: [embarrassed] Shock the penis, pussymaster.
Wade: What?! NO! Nooo!
Mark: But you said "pussy" every time!
Wade: And the original was... chocolate puppy poopypants.
Matt: I- You said penis! You said penis! I watched you all three times! That was the one word I was sure of!
Matt: What do you mean I can't bang my cousin?
Ryan: When you go to the bank at night with kids.
Mark: When you go to the pancake hut, you get cancer.
Wade: Where are your peacocks? How about at the store? - There is also the fact that Matt uses Wade's tweet that announced the challenge/submissions. The result ends up completely differing from the original tweet, leaving Wade with a look of dumbstruck defeat.
- The outro for the fourth. Wade is crying with laughter.Mark: Thanks for watching the Whisper Challenge. This has been a travesty from start to finish, but you can watch the other calamities we've done in the past through the links in the description below. ... If you wanna see more, god help you, I don't know.
- It starts going downhill from the third video
- Wanna know what Mark does whenever he's not doing his let's plays? Well now you know!
- Number 6: Rethink My Life.Mark: [in a bathtub with the shower running, in his clothes] I could have been an engineer... [breaks down sobbing]
- Number 4: Steal Ideas from Other YouTubers' ChannelsMark: [Looks at EipDieWep's channel, looks interested]
Green Bird: Mark, I don't think this is such a good idea.
Mark: [sigh] Shut up, Jacques!
Jacques: SWOHSWOHSWOH- [Smash Cut] - Number 2: Pray to My Brian Regan ShrineMark: [in his best cultist voice] wa-wa-na-sha-ha... wo-ra-ha-ha-naBrian... vas-resha...
Brian Regan Picture: A-gobba-ma [raspberries out candle] Hor-he [Smash Cut]
- Number 6: Rethink My Life.
- Markiplier and CaptainSparklez team up in A Gentlemen's Dispute! Featuring Mark and Jordan in tuxedos, hilariously bad English accents, and increasingly juvenile insults as the two play a pair of "gentlemen's dispute" games. Highlights include:
- The insult that prompts Mark to declare a gentlemen's dispute? "Your mother's cooking tastes like ass." Especially funny since, in Jordan's version, the trigger insult was directed at his suit.
- "Monacle monacle, tophat, monacle!" Actually, all of Mark's attempts at a British accent. They're massively overdone. Jordan isn't much better admittedly, and slips out more frequently. Mostly because of laughter.
- Jordan shooting himself in the foot, complete with laughing fit.
- Mark's Insane Troll Logic explanation of how one wins:Mark: If I lose I win, and if I win I win. That is how it works.
Jordan: OK. That's great logic. The best of logic. - At the end of the games, after Jordan says red is in style these days:Mark: Red is up your butt and around the corner, so go screw yourself!
[Beat, Jordan covers the camera with his hat]
Mark: No! Stop throttling me! No! Jordapper is molesting me!
[Beat, Jordan laughing in the background]
Mark: Not, not really. - Most of the outtakes:Mark: Good evening. May I come in?
Jordan: If you must.
Mark: Oh well fuck you.Jordan: Your family is so poor, they couldn't even afford the hubcap off a Studebaker!
Mark: What's a Studebaker? Does that show how poor my family is?
[just after] Mark: Yours are actually timely and make sense. Me, I'm just calling your mom a whore on whore alley!Jordan: Well I kill a lion next time I'm in Africa. And it reminded me of no one in your family because it was much greater than them all!
Mark: You killed it the next time you were in Africa? Are you from the future?
Jordan: [laughing] Did I say that?
- Mark learns to poledance. Complete with ridiculous underwear.
- Wilford Warfstache interviews Mark. It doesn't end well for Mark.
- When Mark is asked what his favourite game is, the boom mic gets shoved in his mouth.
- When asked about fans:Warfstache: Anyway, have you ever met one these "fans"...?
Mark: Yeah, I meet fans all the time. I go to conventions all around...
Warfstache: ...and murdered their entire family?
Mark: No! No! No! No! I have not! No! No! No!
Warfstache: So! You admit it! You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen. The Markiplier has just admitted to never murdering anyone.
Mark: Now I didn't say that.
Warfstache: What?
- The MEOW video. Markiplier puts his mouth over footage of cats, saying "meow" with varying levels of intensity.Cat!Mark: Why did I waste my life making this video?
[Cut to black]
Mark: [whispering] Because I can!- The sequel, WOOF, is just as ridiculous, with dogs being the subject this time. It ends, of course, with Mark's mouth attached to Chica's face as she asks him why he made another one of these videos.
- And then he makes another one, MOO, with cows this time.
- "What if I told you that this video was one big Markimoo joke?"
- The sequel, WOOF
- Since Mark wasn't able to beat Ghost Supermarket, he made a sketch to sate our curiosity about how the game ends. Cue Mark acting out the game's events in the most dramatic way imaginable, with Ryan and Matt as supermarket greeter ghosts.
- Making another sketch with the now disbanded Cyndago group, Markiplier Inc. now presents to you Popcorn. Now with 25% more Shout Out to HowToBasic.
- Makes it funnier HowToBasic himself commented on the video asking if Mark knew who Chef was.
- After returning to his channel after a month-long hiatus and fresh off from Who Killed Markiplier?, his first uploads are... a series of vlogs revolving around him buying a van and apparently living in it, including setting up a haunted house inside. His grand mission is to make a journey to the nearest Cracker Barrel, which is four-and-a-half hours away. It's as hilarious as it is unexpected.
- When he finally gets there, it's implied that he stayed the whole night just waiting for Cracker Barrel to open its doors the next day. And when he gets his chicken and dumplings, he triumphantly poses on top of the van while holding it, only for him to spill his meal on the ground when he jumps down.
- Markiplier's Vintage Boutique has Mark leaving behind a bowl of mozzarella sticks given to him by Ethan... only for the audiencenote to run back and grab the bowl. Mark attempting to market his products to fans is just as hilarious to see, especially when it comes to selling Ethan's used shower curtain.
- When he finally gets there
- Having all of Mark and company's stuff stolen after their cars were broken into? Not funny. Markiplier eating/kissing a party favour that Ethan was annoying him with at the end of the video à la Lady and the Tramp? Hilarious.
- Mark streams himself taking Korean lessons from "Momiplier." Toward the end he starts trolling her by using a word that means 'penis' in the example sentences instead of the similar-sounding word for 'magazine.' She gets him back by revealing that the word is the one you'd use for a little boy's penis, more like pee-pee or pecker — between the revelation and the 'little dick' hand gestures she uses to accompany it, he breaks down in hysterics.
- The whole stream is comedy gold; it starts off with Momiplier using a term that basically sounds like butt wipes to refer to the wipes Mark is using to blow his nose.
- And then there's the repeated instances of Momiplier's dog Bubbles trying to hump her other dog, Belle, just off-camera. Markiplier even lampshades it:Mark: I'm sorry, I'm just distracted by the extreme humping that's going on over there...
- Mark tends to make some pretty hilarious faces while pronouncing some of the words.
- Mark and company playing "5 Things".Jack: Five things you would say in the bedroom.
Wade: Fuck!
(ONE!)
Wade: I'm ready!
(TWO!)
Wade: Where do I put it?
(THREE!)
Wade: Who the hell are you?!
(FOUR!)
Wade: I'm not ready!
(FIVE!) - Mark's ad for his new product: a rock with his logo on it. You knew it was going to be hilarious when you saw this:Mark: Well hey there, you sad sack of shit!
- Mark then goes on to sing a song extolling the values of the rock, which says, among other things, that you can play hide-and-seek with your rock (with Mark demonstrating), that you can drink your cares away with the rock (and advising the viewer to alert the SCP Foundation if the rock starts talking), and that if you don't brush the rock every so often, you will die.
- Mark's first hiatus was after his friend was Driven to Suicide, a massive Tear Jerker. His second hiatus was over Creator Breakdown, as everyone needs a break every now and then. His third hiatus was because he was signing 32000 nude calendars. Absolutely hilarious.
- Ethan took over Mark one day during the third hiatus. His imitation, even if digitally edited, is spot on. Bonus points for starting the video as Ethan, only to draw himself a fake beard, spraydye his hair red and wear a sleeveles NASA shirt.
- Mark tempting fate before the second dog video in his second "Don't Laugh" challenge by telling the video that it's not funny and daring it to Bring It. He starts the video - the dog barks, but the noises are dubbed with the Microsoft Narration saying the noises - and immediately breaks down laughing.
- The running gag of the Deja Vu meme. At one point, Mark actually stops a video with the song in it, claiming that it's a dead meme, only for the next video to be yet another Deja Vu video.
- The Drowned Man is the perfect mix of humor and Nightmare Fuel, being about Mark as a Paranormal Investigator being called in to investigate the cause of Wade's real life house problems (which primarily involve water leaking from various places with no explanation).
- Mark constantly insists on connecting all of the strange events to blood, such as asking whether the sediment water in the bathtub resembled blood (to which Wade insists it was more like a bath bomb) and asking whether the bulge in the wall resembled a vein.Mark: Did you check it for a pulse?
Wade: ...no, I didn't think to do that. - At one point, Wade recalls having a sudden terror that his wife had drowned in the bathtub, which was now overflowing and causing the leaks. Wade recalls how he rushed upstairs urgently, fearing the worst; the camera then shows a series of shots of Wade leaning sadly against a window, interspersed with still images of his and Molly's wedding... only for Wade to note that Molly was completely fine and watching a livestream.
- Upon entering Wade's recording room, Mark takes a moment to briefly dunk on Wade:Mark: I can feel it...something bad happened here, didn't it? Especially from this area here. [gestures to Wade's recording setup] I'm getting the sense that...someone tried so hard, and yet...everything fell apart around them.
[beat; music cuts off]
Wade: Does this still have something to do with...the house, and the ghost...?
[camera zooms in on Mark]
Mark: Yes. - Mark sits down in Wade's recording chair and gasps in horror...because the chair apparently has no lumbar support.
- The Running Gag of Mark playing all of the secondary characters, including Molly, Wade's wife.
- In part 2, the first repair company Wade calls to fix the house is hilariously incompetent, insisting that "anything can be fixed with enough mud!" and mudding the ceiling without bothering to replace the bad drywall. A few days later, huge cracks have formed in the ceiling. The guy's reaction to this?Mudder: Well... maybe it needs more mud! [big grin]
Wade: [furious Thousand-Yard Stare] - There's the story of how JP (who was staying overnight at Wade's house) found a water stain in the ceiling of his room in the morning, but forgot to mention it to Wade until later that night... and when he and Wade started poking it to check the damage, JP accidentally put his finger through the ceiling and got covered in filthy toilet water. Wade is visibly trying not to laugh as he recounts the story.Wade: Yeah, he got shat on pretty badly.
Mark: He's dead now, isn't he? - In the final episode, as Bob is relating his story about the mysterious water stain that appeared on his ceiling with no explanation, he concludes his genuinely creepy story with this line:Bob: ...I blame Wade.
- The bloopers/outtakes.
- Mark constantly insists on connecting all of the strange events to blood, such as asking whether the sediment water in the bathtub resembled blood (to which Wade insists it was more like a bath bomb) and asking whether the bulge in the wall resembled a vein.
- Mark makes a guest appearance on Ethan's channel as a judge of which peanut butter substitutes are closest to peanut butter (Ethan is deathly allergic to peanuts, and wanted to compare the substitutes to peanut butter). When trying to describe the taste and texture of peanut butter to Ethan, he pauses for a moment to think before dropping this gem.
- What makes this even better is that after they both stop laughing, Mark never gives an explanation for this and it is never brought up again
- Mark's compilation "ONLY ~99 iQ INDIVIDUALS MAY WATCH" is a series of clips from his "Markiplier Makes" series in which Mark, Ethan, and Tyler say and do excessively stupid things. Moments of note include a stuffed-animal building session devolving into a whip fight, Ethan repeatedly making a huge mess by knocking things over, Mark calling Ethan "Ether," and Ethan's "friends" song.
- While "I haven't eaten this food in 20 YEARS..." has some heartwarming/tearjerker moments involving memories of his father, it is rather amusing seeing Mark share goofy stories about him, such as his father slapping a chirping smoke alarm off the ceiling because he was pissed that his favorite brand of cheese spread was discontined or how he told Mark to not ride his bike in the yard (as it ruins the yard itself) only for Mark to do it anyway, giving his son a Death Glare afterwards.
- Mark midway interrupting the video to buying a Geiger counter, because why the heck not?.
- This part where Mark discovers a cup that Amy's great grandmother made was highly irradiated.Amy: Do you have something to say about my great grandmother?
Mark:....[silently] she might be irradiated... - Amy going on about wasps in regards to the Newton cookies...because why not too? All while Mark is looking in confusion after eating a Newton...
- On Markiplier's 31st Birthday, he made this. It shows Markiplier wishing himself a happy birthday, and requesting his fans to leave birthday wishes in the comments, all while he hysterically laughs at his dog's distraught looking face.
- One video has Markiplier trying out MREs from the USA, Russia, and South Korea, in that order. To his surprise, the Russian one actually comes with a small fryer-type device with phosphorous that allows him to heat up an unidentifiable dish he finds within... only for Amy to translate some of it and find out that the dish may contain formaldehyde and ammonia when heated. Mark tries some of it anyway. It gets worse when he thinks there's meat on the bottom, only to pull it up and realize it's just a burned mess of everything that might have been potentially edible.
- When he picks the fryer up, he realizes that it left a fairly large burn on the table. He immediately (and quietly) begs the audience not to tell Amy.
- Also, Mark misidentifies a clear powder he finds in the Russian MRE, and thinks it's a tang-style drink powder. He pours it into a glass, drinks it... and realizes it adds absolutely no taste, smell, or anything else to the water. He then finds the actual drink powder, and nervously wonders what he just drank.
- For his 2020 - A Comprehensive Review, the only thing he has to say about 2020 before ending the video is "Fuck" as credits begin to roll (Which is also filled with F-words from start to finish). This is literally Markiplier in his ultimate Sarcasm Mode form, a thing we need before heading to another interesting, yet challenging year.
- Mark trying to walk 100,000 steps in a day. It goes about as well as you'd expect.
- Mark bought several flashlights off Amazon, all of which claim to be "the world's most powerful flashlight." He spends about 20 minutes reviewing the flashlights, including shining them directly in his eyes. The 100,000 lumen flashlight is the highlight of the video, pun intended.
- Mark eventually tested out the 100,000 LM flashlight outside (through Tiktok) to show how bright it is and as he flashed it to the sky, it made the sky blue, making Mark quietly freak out.Mark: It makes the sky blue! That's a problem, that's a problem. (quickly goes back inside)

- In Everyone Looks Like Markiplier, Mark finds a post of him being compared to Chris McLean from Total Drama. He then goes to the character's wiki page to learn more about him (specifically what's in Chris's bag), and subsequently becomes more shocked and confused at the character's deranged personality and especially the show's synopsis.
- Later on in the video, Markiplier's increasingly indulgent acceptance of his resemblance to KFC's CGI Colonel Sanders.
- On the flip side, being compared to Wilden Lightfoot upsets Mark so much that he tells the audience member who mentioned it he'd never forgive them.Markiplier: You think you can just go on the internet and do whatever you want? No. There are consequences for your actions.
- According to Word of God, the quintessential Markiplier lookalike: Metroman. With an accompanying fan-made deepfake.
- Mark's insistence that Maes Hughes "goes on to live a long, happy life, where nothing happens..." only to trail off when he notices one of the google image results is the thumbnail of a meme video featuring himself reacting to Hughes' death.
- "Smash or Pass: All 898 Pokémon." It's exactly what it sounds like — 24 minutes of Mark scrolling through a long list of Pokémonnote and deciding which ones he would smash, with little to no context or explanation. Some of his choices are... strange.
- The first Pokémon Mark declares he would smash? Beedrill. As several comments pointed out, this does very little to help his claims of not being a masochist.
- Why're you looking at me like that?
- His reaction to Magneton: "Smash... but why?"
- Mark being unable to stop himself from giggling at the sight of Nosepass and Probopass.
- His reaction to Lileep is to make several retching sounds... followed by saying he would smash. He then proceeds to pass on its evolution, Cradily, without a second thought.
- At one point, while looking at Castform's entry, Mark unwittingly brings up a well-known bit of Unfortunate Character Design:Mark: Pass. Those do look like boobs, though.
- Mark quips that Combee is cute before passing. His reaction to its evolution Vespiquen?
- When he gets to Lopunny, he hesitates for a moment before asking the audience if choosing "smash" would make him a furry, then decides to smash anyway. Note that he had already chosen to smash Ninetales earlier.
- Later on, he ends up passing on Mienshao on the grounds of "That would definitely make me a furry."
- While considering Lickilicky, we get a brief animation of Mark's facecam sliding down Lickilicky's tongue while he decides whether or not to pass.
- At the sight of Florges, Mark becomes so flustered that he can barely even bring himself to say "Smash", and we get a moment of saxophone music and hearts flying across the screen.
- Spritzee's image doesn't even show up, but Mark decides to smash anyway.
- While going through the Goomy line, he says "Smash" for Goomy, "Double smash" for Sliggoo... and "Pass, oddly enough" for Goodra.
- The first thing Mark encounters on reaching the Generation VII entries:Mark: (sees Rowlet) That's an owl. Pass.
Mark: (sees Dartrix) That's another owl. Pass.
Mark: (sees Decidueye; beat) ...smash. - Mark getting a Jump Scare at the sight of Shiinotic:Oh my god it's staring into my soul! Pass, pass, pass, PASS!!
- When he gets to Salazzle, he decides to smash... then goes back to get a better look at her.Mark: Look, it's got tits! It's jutting its tits out... 100% female?!
- The presentation of the entire video. Mark offers no explanation at the start or in the video description, just diving right in. And at the end, he states he's not taking any questions and ends it immediately, not doing any of his usual outro antics.
- MatPat posted a theory of his own on just how Markiplier's brain functioned in this case, ending with combining all of his desirable traits to create him a perfect Pokémon. Markiplier brings the proceeds to full circle by Smash-or-Passing it. It's a pass.
- Undeterred, MatPat then made another theory doubling down on the analysis, creating two final candidates: an elegant bird Pokémon with various features that Mark found attractive... and another one that's just a random mishmash of various Pokémon that Mark said "Smash" to, with Mark's own face (intentionally) badly photoshopped on to fit with his self-proclaimed narcissism. And sure enough, Mark reacted to this video as well, and gave his opinion... or rather, he didn't give a judgment at all on either of the two options, but instead photoshopped the bird Pokémon's face onto the mishmash and declared it a Smash.
- Markiplier returns on Rosanna Pansino's Nerdy Nummies for their Five Night's at Freddy's Toy Freddy cake episode, naturally. The first time he was on the channel, also for a FNAF-themed episode, things went straightforward enough; this time...
- The return of the "Markiplier brand stand mixer"Mark: (plunges his hands into the bowl of dry ingredients to get out the lumps) I did not wash my hands.
Ro: Oh that's okay, it'll bake out.
Mark: (bursts out laughing) - Mark is once again going to town on the ingredient mixing, until Rosanna points out that you don't wanna overmix the cake batter, immediately prompting Mark to stop with a wide-eyed look of panic, wondering for a minute if he actually messed up.
- Mark lampshading the absence of his signature "You Close?" gag as they're stacking the baked cakes.Mark: So you just cream, stack, cream, stack... so many jokes I could make if you weren't PG-13.
- Mark's sweater shifting to different positions and orientations around his body over the course of the episode.Ro: Mark is wearing his new cardigan.
Mark: It's a sweater (face and accent poised in some vague form of posh, with his sweater bunched around his neck and shoulders like a scarf) - Mark rolling out and flattening his fondant by punching and elbowing it.
- Rosanna thought it would be fun to make some extra cakes so both she and Mark would have a whole themed-cake to then decorate themselves, something she's never done before in this series. It's after this point it becomes increasingly clear that Mark's antics are about to take on a whole new level.
