Thorn's opinion of the game is occasionally brought up as the LP goes on. He defends it heartily at the beginning, just about hates it when the game is finished.
Dragon Road has no dragons, just flying knives. The next time flying knives are encountered, Travis insists that they are dragons.
Thorn suggests early in the LP that he and Travis should write lyrics for "Redial". When the song is requested by the Something Awful thread for a montage video near the end of the LP, they do exactly that.
Brown Note: Just the sound of Thorn's kazoo or Travis' Metal Asshorn*
(tuba mouthpiece)
is enough to send the whole trio into hysterics. When Travis brings the latter out at the end of Day 5 in Pikmin 2:
Note also goes to Madcapoperator, Thorn's friend who guested on a few Majora's Mask parts. He would have stood around waiting for the carpenter to clear the boulder from Milk Road for three literal days, because he used to think video games were magical.
Thorn: "Let's cook him!" *Carries dog over to fireplace*
Travis: "Yeah!"
Deadpan Snarker: Also everyone on the team. The game characters become this by proxy.
Deus Sex Machina: As Agent Under Fire has shown us, having access codes will get you laid. And getting laid will warp you out of a prison cell.
Epic Fail: The ending of Bomberman Hero not only has such low graphical quality that the other Bomber characters are just jumping statues, but there are so many of them that the framerate drops.
Fan Nickname: Thorn let the Something Awful thread suggest names for Link and Epona in Twilight Princess. The trio decided on Hey Hey and Pibot, respectively.
Filk Song: In the final bonus video for Bomberman Hero, Travis and Thorn parody the game's resident catchy tune, "Redial", by singing increasingly dark lyrics over it about the various jokes andRunning Gags they established throughout the Let's Play.
Light is Not Good: When Light Spirit Faron appears in Twilight Princess {Part 4, uncut version}, the trio play him as a "squirrelpion" demon who wants to destroy the world. Luckily he's too lazy to do anything.
Yoshi: "So you gonna do something? No?"
Travis (As Faron): "I'm comfy!"
Man of a Thousand Voices: Travis likes giving various enemies and characters voices, few of which actually sound alike.
Pibot saying increasingly ridiculous One Liners and Non Sequiturs. Develops to the point where Pibot becomes a Memetic Molester who delights in the suffering of others.
"I found your destruction of the elderly hilarious."
Everything in the galaxy is frustrated.
"GEODUDE IS FRUSTRATED!!!"
The constant use of the song "Redial", which quickly gets on the commentators' nerves. Thorn and Travis even write lyrics for it in one of the final videos.
"Realtor" also gets mocked frequently for sounding like a "gargling lizard".
The ridiculous voice acting. Max, Birdy and Gangu are favorite mockery targets.
Shout's ridiculously useless or repetitive advice.
The Jetters, rather than being an intergalactic police force who wish to bring peace, are a bunch of jerks who are doing this mission, not to save Planet Bomber, but to punish the Hige Hige Bandits for having fun.
Thorn and Travis are both music buffs and have sang/namechecked Nick Cave, The Proclaimers, and Motörhead during various LPs.
So What Do We Do Now?: Travis jokes that a dice-like enemy in P2A2 of Bomberman Hero has the aspirations to one day roll a 6, and when it does, it thinks, "...Well now what?"
Straight Man and Wise Guy / Red Oni, Blue Oni: Yoshi and Thorn, depending on who is running the LP. Travis qualifies as a Red Oni when paired with Thorn, Green Oni when with both.
"These guys right here (the Hige Higes) have 50x more personality than all of the Jetters combined, and 100x more charm... These guys have been placed on a planet that, let's remember, is flying to another planet to destroy it. The entire Hige Hige fleet is on this planet to die! ... Mujoe and Mechadoc are the biggest assholes."
"Allow me to hold you in my silver, human-killing arms."
