  • Pre-Magfest Prep stream:
    • Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts:
      • The Infallacycle. Jon uses the robust vehicle editor to create the silliest car he can think of, and, well, he probably succeeded. He starts off by putting wheels everywhere on the thing, doing some minor tweaks so that it actually moves around. Afterwards, he gets excited at the thought of attaching jet engines to it, only to discover he only has one. He attaches it anyways, not even on center mind you, just to see what happens. It flies. No teetering, no wobbling, no turning upside-down. It just flies fucking perfectly.
      • Jon loads up a tank.
        Tom: Why does your tank have a jet engine?
        Jon: Because! Would you not want a tank with a jet engine!?
    • The insane push from the chat to make the next game Revolt instead of Rhythm Heaven Fever, going from 17% behind to 4% ahead.
    • ''Bassmaster2000
  • The sequel stream is called "Fortune Cookie: I Survived MAGfest & All I Got Were These Games Edition".
    • The "Bad Mystery Magfest game" just beats out Taiko Drum Master. It's a Barbie game.
  • Jon ends up playing Hatoful Boyfriend, as it was a joke pick from Lucah. He names his character Wesker Wesker.
    • Resulting in pictures like this one.
    • When they get to the hyperactive Okosan, Lucah tells Jon that he's Chugga in bird form. Jon then has to come up with an appropriate voice for a character who only says "Coo!" over and over...
    • The Running Gag of Gex having Popcultural Osmosis Failure. He spends the entirety of the Hatoful Boyfriend session in a Funny Background Event Heroic BSoD.
      Gex: Why are there pigeons?
      Jon: [matter-of-factly] Because it's a pigeon dating sim.
      Gex: IT'S A WHAT?
    • Later on in the stream, one of the choices is Spore on Steam. Immediately everyone guesses that will be the picked game. Dan forgets to put it in the Strawpoll link. In the fixed link, it's listed as "Spore (????)". Sure enough, it's the number one choice. Jon then starts a Running Gag:
      Jon: SPOOOOOOOORE! For STEEEEEEEEAM!
    • As per usual, Skitch manages to come up with a fake philosophical analysis for whatever game is being played with Gex and Tom joining. This time it's Mickey's Adventures in Numberland going from a goofy painting and cubism to Mickey in purgatory to the game being based of The Divine Comedy.
  • Fortune Cookie: Good To Be Home Edition
  • Fortune Cookie: Questionable Choices As Always Edition
    • Twitch allows streamers to note the game being played beneath the stream title. For this stream, Jon has it set to Games With Your Heart.
    • At first, the protonEgg emote wasn't showing up in the chat on Jon's end (just a white space), then it came back and protonWhat was a black box.
    • Learn With Pokémon: Typing Adventure gets derailed immediately when Jon notices that the announcer has a very British accent and calls out whatever keys he types. Including "\".
    • Jon, Trev, and Khead acting out the various voices for the characters in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.
    • Jon ends up playing Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game. Hilarity Ensues.
      • Over the course of the game, Jon has to rely on spamming German Suplexes to win fights, so naturally with one of his mods (Dan) being a massive wrestling fan, and this stream coinciding with the day of WrestleMania, he makes a Suplex Counter. From when Dan started counting, Jon hit FIFTY-SIX!
    • The ending of the stream (and Street Fighter). Jon actually beats Bison's second fight, and for his efforts gets to watch a music video as the credits. Jon, Trev, and Khead are all speechless. Then when Jon finishes watching it, he accidentally plays it again, exits out, throws his controller, and accidentally starts up Story Mode again! Immediately afterwards, Jon Rage Quit the stream out of frustration.
  • From the Easter stream, Jon plays Choice Chamber where the chat makes him overpowered to all heck, then once he reached Room 100 he told the chat to try and kill him. They gave him the worst weapon, making him jump constantly, and making bomb squirrels appear, and he managed to last until 15 rooms later, when the chat had to build a bridge, and one person put a block just high enough that Jon couldn't reach the other side.
    • Jon plays Bucky O'Hare and after beating the first boss, Jon says in confusion that the character he's rescued looks like his 8-year-old self. The chat (obviously) proceeds to combine this with the existing "18-year-old Jon" running gag by creating "8-year-old Jon".
    • Jon gets Wheel of Fortune as the first game in a Fortune Cookie and practically calls it as the winner right then and there, especially with Lucahjin and Villene present as the other two players. The cookie begs to differ, and proceeds to offer Skyward Sword, Turtles In Time, the Sega CD Cliffhanger, and an RPG-rule-bypassing Paper Mario: Sticker Star as the next four. Wheel still wins, but it's by a much smaller margin than expected, and the chat explodes in response to the "best Cookie ever".
    • Jon then proceeds to win no money in the course of that game as Villene and Lucah dominate it, but he gives Villene the right answer for her bonus puzzle of GARLIC. The game starts showing a clip of the Moon and Jon jokes she's won a trip to the Moon, only for that to actually turn out to be the prize, to his astonishment.
      Villene: This is the best present you've ever given me! Garlic in exchange for the Moon!
  • From the "I Tore Myself Away From Mortal Kombat X" stream, while Jon is playing the original Metal Gear, Jewker is on co-commentary, and starts telling a story. Halfway through a sentence, he cuts out. Jon pauses the game to sort Skype out... and then Tom Fawkes, who is a regular co-commentator but one that wasn't present, suddenly talking instead. Cue bafflement from Jon and the chat.
    Jon: Well, that was unexpected! ...Let's try that again.
    Tom: There we go, it worked!
    Jon: Wait, that's not the voice that was originally talking! [laughter] Hey, Tom!
    Tom: Hi. Oh! ...Wait.
  • "Fortune Cookie: With Live Guest Lucahjin Edition":
    • Jon is streaming with Lucahjin. In order to get the licensed Aqua Teen Hunger Force game working, Lucah licks the CD. And it fixes it.
    • Later, once the Fortune Cookie part of the stream starts, Jon and Lucah decide to just play the first game the Cookie gives them. It chooses... one of the worst Barbie games in existence. And after they finish playing that game, they do the same thing... and it spits out another Barbie game!
    • And the game after that? Another Barbie game. This time, Jon's forced Lucah to play it.
    • After the third Barbie game, Jon runs the Fortune Cookie a few times to see if it's working, and gets several not-Barbie games. Then they choose the game... and it's a FOURTH Barbie game!
    • The reason for all the Barbie games? JON RIGGED THE WHOLE THING.
  • From the following "Barbie's Banned Edition" stream, late in the stream Jon plays 100% Orange Juice along with Lucah, an online player with a much higher level of experience than any of them (Enemene, who did the art for the game), and Skitch - who has never played the game before. Skitch is quickly knocked down to one hitpoint and seems doomed...then rolls four 7s for attack in a row, killing both Enemene and Jon while he survives.
  • From Subscriber's Fortune Cookie Night - Good Idea Gone Bad Edition, he makes a Wesker Egg in Scribblenauts Unlimited. That explodes. To nuclear proportions.
  • From the "Being Productive (?) Edition", Jewker convinces the chat to make Jon play the Hercules: The Legendary Journeys game, with all of the quality expected from a Nintendo 64 game made by Titus. Highlights include the off-model images, attack animations, odd timer measurements, movable fire, and a mudman jumpscare. In the end, the chat was initially amused but ultimately disappointed.
    • The Cookie offers Mario Party 6 at one point, and Jon points out that it has been exactly one year since the fateful Runaway Guys stream that played the same game.
    • Jon plays Battletoads and has an initially strong start before getting uncharacteristically stuck in Level 9 and becoming increasingly irate at the game before he ragequits back to the Fortune Cookie. And then the first suggestion the Cookie gives is Battletoads in Battlemaniacs.
  • From the "Pre-E3 Edition" Tom and Jon made an agreement not to reveal spoilers about a recent leak for Smash 4. Cue Tom very casually mentioning that Ryu and Roy have been slated for release in the middle of the first game.
    • Also from the same stream, from the makers of Tetris, Hatris. To everyone's surprise, it turns out to be a pretty good game. It also managed to beat Mortal Kombat X on Twitch.
    • Also during Hatris, Jon completely lost it when Tom mentioned they had over 2,100 viewers.
    • Jon plays Super Spy Hunter as a mystery game, which he'd only recently heard of. Both he and the chat are awed by both how good the graphics are for an NES game and, especially, how insanely Nintendo Hard it is. Especially when it turns out that the first boss has three phases.
    • During a giveaway of 100% Orange Juice, someone managed to put in the correct answer in the chat only for Page to point out that the person already had the game.
  • From the "Wisdom Teeth Pain Watch Edition" Jon decided that because he didn't know how long he would be streaming, he decided to forgo the No RPG rule. Cue three RPGs in a row showing up on Cookie.
    • He gets three 1% rules in a row, so he enacts the 0% rule, where if two games have the exact same percentage, he plays the least voted game.
    • The con stories:
      • Emile getting stuck to a chair.
      • Emile sitting in a chair that was under a shelving unit.
      • Tim in a sumo wrestler stand up.
      • Emile in a soccer lady stand up.
    • Toward the end of the Q&A, Jon casually mentions the fact that he's dating Lucahjin, assuming everyone knew by now. The chat proceeds to positively detonate with surprised reactions.
    • At the end of the stream, Robocop got stuck.
      Jon: The engine just needed a little revving.
  • From the Fortune Cookie: One Last Hurrah Edition (the last before Jon's big move):
  • "Fortune Cookie: Late For My Own Birthday Edition":
    • The first game of the night, The Adventures of Batman and Robin, is one that Jon picked up from a con... and has "U R Stupid" engraved on it.
    • Setting all the buttons to "Horn" in Dukes of Hazzard: Daisy Dukes It Out.
    • When Jon has trouble with the audio in a game, someone compares it to when Jon played Halo Reach. Jon decides to look up the Fibbage lobby music as a result... only for the first video to come up to be his stream of Halo Reach!
      • Following that, some of Tim's videos come up while Jon was searching for something to use.
    • Jon plays Fighter Maker, and eventually makes a character that winds up warping and sliding all over the place while making hilariously glitchy poses.
      • He spends some time tinkering with the legs on the character's model, and ends up making an animation where he throws a punch while his legs pivot around his body; or as Jon put it, "I think I've made Jean-Claude Van Damme."
        "Ugh, my groin hurts from staring at that!"
  • From "Fortune Cookie: The True Meaning of Cyber Monday Edition":
    • Jon's constant WTF reactions when playing Robocop 3, especially the random upgrade screen with Robocop sitting in a chair.
      • Also his astounded realization that the game only gives you three lives. Total. Leading to this gem:
        Jon: [reading a chat comment through laughter] "Robocop has as many lives as he has prime directives!" [as himself, still laughing] But he has four!
