    Quiplash (XL, 2, 3) 
  • In the original, if any player answers a prompt with a specific answer, Schmitty will comment about it. There are too many to list every single example, but here are some of the more notable ones:
    • "Quiplash" for "The World's Most Boring Video Game". Schmitty does not take it well.
      Schmitty: "This game. Really. You know what? F**k you. F**k you, and f**k your mother, f**k your father... if you even have a f**kin' mother and father. You know how hard we worked on this f**king game? Piece of sh*t... You don't even know. You have noooo f**king idea. 'Oh, this game, ehh Quiplash euhhh it's boring' F**K YOU. What're you doing playing here, then?! And you wanna know what else? It isn't even f**king original. Somebody else answered the same g**damn thing yesterday. Ungrateful piece of sh*t... Alright, let's keep going!"
      • This gag (sort of) gets a sequel in Quiplash 3 in the prompt "A game you only play when you're really, really, really, REALLY bored". Answering "Quiplash" will have Schmitty react appropriately.
        Schmitty: "I'm sorry, but is that such a bad thing, really? 'cause an hour ago you were bored out of your skull, but look at you now! You're playing this 'stupid game' and suddenly life has meaning again! You're welcome!"
    • "Gravity" for "Why does the Tower of Pisa lean?"
      Schmitty: Well, congratulations, smartass, you're technically right! Everybody stand up and give this jerk a hand! (clapping noises) Come on, do it."
    • "A human hand" for "Something you don't want to find in your Christmas stocking".
      Schmitty: Well, unless you ask Santa for a human hand...
    • "Worse than Word Spud" or "Not as good as Word Spud" for "An angry review you'd give this game (Quiplash)"
      Schmitty: Ugh, damn it! Always being measured against the yardstick that is Word Spud!
  • If nobody answers any prompts in any of the Quiplash games, Schmitty will say something random, then end the game immediately.
    "Hello? (taps microphone) Is this thing on? Must not be on. Well, since nobody's listening, I'll say it: I'm moving to Denver. I haven't told anyone officially yet, but it feels good to get it off my chest. Denver, here I come!"
    "Well, I haven't felt this ignored since my wedding night. Guess I'll go to the bathroom and cry again. Bye!"
    "Okaaay, I guess nobody wants to play anymore. That's fine with me. Bye!"
    "Well, this has been fascinating, what with the silence and all, but uhh, I've gotta wash my hair. Bye!"
    "Mmm...That's interesting, very minimalist, I like it. Hey, here's some minimalism for ya!"
    "I love you. Even if you've done this to me, I still love you. And sometimes, love means having to say goodbye. Goodbye."
    "Well, I do love the sound of crickets, but not this much. Bye."
    "Alright look, if I wanted a game with no players, I'd go back to hosting my Church Bingo Night. Come back when you're ready to take this irreverent party game seriously".
    "Okay, I can take a hint, I know when I'm not wanted. I'm leaving. You won't have Josh "Schmitty" Schmitstinstein to kick around anymore. Don't expect to hear from me again, until the next time you want to play Quiplash! Bye!"
    "Hey! Where did everybody go? Ugh. It’s just like that after-prom party I threw when I was sixteen. Don’t overreact, Schmitty. People like you. They do! I’ll show ‘em. I’LL SHOW EM!!!"
    "Hey! Anybody there? Oh crap. Did like a meteor hit or something? Honestly, just my luck. You know I’m this close to saving up 1% for a condo down payment and humanity is ending. Guess I better help rebuild society. Again."
    "Hmmm. No answers. Okay, well I'm not gonna take this personally. I had every intention of stress eating this pie BEFORE this happened, so don’t think that YOU have control over my emotions. See ya later!"
    "Hey, anybody there? Oh no. What if I was part of their dream and they woke up and left me here? Oh my... Well, plenty of time to have an existential crisis later. Bye!"

    Bomb Corp 
  • The dialogue during the transitions of each bomb or during the break can be very amusing. Examples include:
    • Break Time quotes:
      Lynda: "All I'm saying is if I take the last Styrofoam cup, I open a new box, or I put in an order for more! People are so lazy!"
      Old Man: "I don't enjoy working with you!"
    • Bomb Transition Quotes (Some are exclusive to certain days):
      Greg: (In a falsetto voice, after being demoted in Day 10) Does anyone miss Greg being the boss? I certainly do, and I'm not Greg at all!

    Trivia Murder Party (1, 2) 
  • Rarely when looking at a scoreboard, [REDACTED]'s voice changer will malfunction and reveal their true identity as either Schmitty, Cookie Masterson, the Guesspionage host, or Spencer Hamnote . Their hilarious reactions range from worried to awkward as they try to brush it off after getting it to work again.
    Spencer Ham: "And let's take a look at the scores. *Gasp* Oh god, my voice filter is off! (Spencer adjusts the filter to fix it) Okay, okay... Umm, let's just pretend we did not just hear my normal, sexy speaking voice."
    Guesspionage Host: "And let's take a look at that scoreboard—Oh. Oh no, my filter isn't on. Oh no, oh no no no no no! (He adjusts the filter to get it working again) Okay, okay... Umm, let's just pretend we did not just hear my normal, sexy speaking voice."
    Cookie Masterson: "And taking a look at that scoreboard again... Uhh, what the hell? My voice. Is the voice filter off? *Sigh* Are you freaking kidding me? Hello?! How did my voice filter turn off?! It's not good! Not good at all! Well, now I just sound like Cookie again. (Cookie adjusts the voice filter to turn it back on) I'm sure no one will notice. Okay, umm... Let's just pretend we did not just hear my normal speaking voice."
    Schmitty: "Alright, let's take another look at those scores- W-Oh, is my voice filter off? Oh my god, my voice filter's—I can't... (Bangs on the voice changer) Get back, go back on! I can't get it back on! Can anybody hear m- Oh no, this is bad! This is bad! (Turns something to turn the filter back on as the voice slowly changes back) I'm going to go to jail for a long, long time! Erm, none of this is real! You're all having a dream right now~ Yeah, good cover-up, Schmitty—God, dang it!"
    Schmitty: "Alright, let's take another look at that score-scorebo- Is my voice filter off? Oh...boy... Uhh, uhh... Hi! Hey, this is Schmitty, and uh... (Awkwardly chuckles) What are you doing here? I just walked in...to-in this place here, that I... Oh god... This is bad, okay... Umm... (Schmitty in the distance fakes leaving the room) I'm gonna...take off here... Just gonna let you, uhh... You uhh, have a great game! (Shuts the door and turns the voice filter back on) Whoa, did you guys just see that guy...totally leave the room? H-He uh, left the room for sure, yeah, what's with that guy? Man, that was weird, huh? That w- What was his deal? That was strange..."
  • The game Chalices involves picking a cup that might be poisoned. One of the cups in the sequel is the kind used for urine samples.
  • In the Pegs mini-game in TMP 2, the host might introduce it with "It's time for some pegging! ...Okay, now that I've said that out loud, it does sound weird."
  • Win the second game while wearing the Father's Hat and the credits music gets replaced by a jaunty song called "Me and My Dad".
  • Just about anytime [REDACTED] views one of the players as his mother. Doubles as Heartwarming Moment

    Monster Seeking Monster 
  • When the Zombie wins:
    Felicia: Hide your brains! ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE!!!
  • If there is a Body Swapper and a Leprechaun in the game, It is possible for a Leprechaun to lose their fake hearts that they gained to themselves if Night 2 was a full moon as shown here.
  • Sometimes when there aren't enough players, the computer will fill the last slot with the Robot, an AI character. If it comes in last place, nobody wins the game because it goes on a killing rampage and wipes out all of humanity. Talk about being Not Good with Rejection.

    Split the Room 

    Fibbage (XL, 2, 3, 4) 
  • Cookie's increasingly stupefied reactions if more than two people come up with the same lie, to the point where afterwards he'll ask if it was planned.
  • A Fibbage 4 scenario with fixed questions has Cookie being kidnapped and replaced by a rogue AI. The fan fact comes from Cookie himself discreetly asking for help.
