* Speech checks. [[labelnote:Explanation]]In a similar vein to the above, it's rather popular to edit dialogue scenes from various shows and movies to have characters passing or failing checks to their speech and other skills. It naturally became even more popular with the launch of the [[Series/Fallout2024 TV show]] in 2024.[[/labelnote]]

* Assigning stats and traits to the cast.[[labelnote:Explanation]]While the show doesn't use the SPECIAL system (obviously, it isn't a video game), many fans of the series have tried to guess each character's traits and SPECIAL stats. For example, it's frequently joked that Maximus has absolutely no Charisma but high Endurance, the Ghoul has tons of Endurance and Luck, and Lucy has high Intelligence, but very little Charisma.[[/labelnote]]
* "Thou shalt get sidetracked by bullshit every goddamn time."[[labelnote:Explanation]]The Ghoul says this to Lucy when she tries to remind him of the Golden Rule. This line became particularly beloved in the fanbase because it pretty much sums up the experience of the ''Fallout'' series perfectly because of just how much extra stuff on the side is added to each entry.[[/labelnote]]
* "You wanna make my cock explode?"[[labelnote:Explanation]]Maximus is a character that many fans believe has absolutely ''no'' way with words whatsoever, culminating in this line when he's trying to ask Lucy if she wants to have sex. The out-of-left-field nature of the line, as well as the aforementioned meme about Maximus having no Charisma, made it a fan-favorite.[[/labelnote]]

[[spoiler:The Art held hostage is the synth]]. The meme comes from the fact this encounter is repeatable, even if both Arts are killed the first time, and so people soon went with the idea that the "human" Art is in fact a PhysicalGod always BackFromTheDead, and the Institute is constantly churning out synth doubles in vain attempts to take his place.[[/labelnote]]

Needless to say, classic ''Fallout'' fans (especially [[RootingForTheEmpire Enclave supporters]]) love him.[[/labelnote]]

While this was retconned with the ''Broken Steel'' DLC with him accepting your request, it still received a lot of mockery for audacity of Fawkes for saying that, coming across as valuing HonorBeforeReason at best and a lazy {{Jerkass}} at worst.
