History Funny / Outlast

--> '''Gluskin:''' Did I...? Oh, lord! I forgot to give you an anesthetic, didn't I? Eddie, you doofus! I'd forget my own head if it wasn't screwed on!

* In Issue 2 of ''The Murkoff Account'', Pauline realizes [[spoiler:Trager roofied her. After forcing him to ingest a full drink of his own drug, the scene cuts to her staring at Trager's coke stash.]] Cue Pauline counter-drugging herself to high heaven on cocaine, eyes wide, with MotorMouth.

* The entire torture scene with the Trager can be kind of amusing with [[FauxAffablyEvil his nonsensical and casual friendly comments,]] which can make the scene a bit of a BlackComedy.
-->'''Trager''' (after a JumpScare): Buddy!

--->'''Trager:''' (When passing by someone strapped to a bed) Shhh, shh. [[TongueTrauma You weren't putting that tongue to any use anyway]]. Truth be told, I was just tired of licking my own stamps.

* At one point Miles is being flanked by ThoseTwoBadGuys so he climbs out the window and shimmies across to escape them. Their incredibly deadpan sarcasm is pretty amusing:

** This bit of unused dialogue of his is ActuallyPrettyFunny.

* The achievement for clearing Whistleblower on Insane [[FinalDeath (if you die, you have to start aaaaalllll the way back at the beginning)]] is called [=BowelWhistler=]. One can only assume Red Barrels called it that because [[BringMyBrownPants all that'll go through your bowels for the next few days will be just a whistle of air.]]

* In issue 3, Paul comes up with this gem to discredit Waylon:

* In issue 3 of ''The Murkoff Account,'' Paul comes up with this gem to discredit Waylon:

-->'''Soldier 1:''' What kind of sick fuck would do this to somebody? Even took his damn pants.\\
'''Soldier 2:''' Tell you one thing: [[FullFrontalAssault I've seen enough dick and balls tonight]] to last me a lifetime.
'''Soldier 3:''' [[GroinAttack And not all of them attached to a man.]] Let's wrap this up and get back to the truck.

** When he's hanging Waylon, Eddie quips, [[BlackComedy "If this is you on the honeymoon, I'd hate to imagine our anniversary!"]]

** When he's hanging Waylon, Gluskin quips, [[BlackComedy "If this is you on the honeymoon, I'd hate to imagine our anniversary!"]]

* When Miles encounters the Walrider for the first time, if the player is fast enough he responds by [[NoJustNoReaction slamming the door in its face]].
** Hell, when opening a door containing ANYBODY, from run of the mill inmates to the subbosses to the Walrider, [[NoJustNoReaction slamming the door in their face]] [[RunningGag is the ONLY reaction players will often take]].

* [[GallowsHumor And you gotta admit]], the way Gluskin in ''Whistleblower'' decorated his lair can have these moments. Written on the walls are cutesy little sayings you'd find on a home decor sign ("Welcome Home", "Love makes a house a home", "If mama's not happy, nobody's happy," etc.)… [[RefugeInAudacity written in]] [[CouldntFindAPen his victims' blood.]]
** One room is set up like a design studio, and is filled with mannequins... [[DecapitationPresentation with the decapitated heads of Gluskin's victims]] [[RefugeInAudacity speared atop them]].

--> '''Gluskin:''' Did I ... ? Oh, lord! I forgot to give you an anesthetic, didn't I? [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Eddie, you doofus! I'd forget my own head if it wasn't screwed on]]!
* The childish way the Cannibal shouts "mine!" when he spots you might count.
** "Feed me! FEED ME! ''FEED ME!!!''" Beyond his voice getting higher each time he says it, it's a little hard not to think of [[Film/LittleShopOfHorrors Audrey II]].
* The Murkoff Soldiers finding "Dr." Trager's corpse, mistaking him for another dead asylum staff member that has been molested.

'''Soldier 2:''' Tell you one thing: [[FullFrontalAssault I've seen enough dick and balls tonight]] to last me a lifetime[[note]]Let's face it, after the original game and this DLC you felt the exact same way by now.[[/note]]\\
'''Soldier 3:''' [[GroinAttack And not all of them attached to a man]]. Let's wrap this up and get back to the truck.

* Whistleblower also features this... [[ARareSentence odd insult]].
-->'''Voice''': [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Go find yourself a 'possum titty!]]
* This journal entry for its spectacular descriptions:
--> "I'm already beat all to hell, picking broken glass out of my scalp, couple cracked ribs. Nearly killed by a deformed giant, looks like somebody tried to fuck-start his head with a cheese grater. He throws me through a wall, knocks me unconscious. I wake up and some doughy old man with a face like an alcoholic kiddy fiddler in a homemade priest outfit calls me his Apostle. Not a job I asked for. There are words scrawled in blood everywhere. I'm getting an ugly feeling in my gut that the "Priest" is writing them, and for my benefit."

* Near the end of Whistleblower one can find a poster telling Murkoff staff what to do in the event of an evacuation order. The list is fairly standard stuff like not using the elevator, proceeding outdoors in an orderly manner...except for the last one, which says simply "Don't Cry".
* A really dark example, a patient [[HypocriticalHumor accuses you]] of being a sick pervert as you accidentally stumble across him...[[ILoveTheDead having intimate moments with a headless corpse]]. Made all the funnier by his gesturing.
-->"What you like to watch?! That's sick. You're sick!"

** "Okay, okay, I'm here. Listen, I am in the middle of a consultation, so you'll have to make it quick."[[labelnote:*]]This is while he's chasing you.[[/labelnote]]
** "Oh god damn it, how did you get out? We're gonna have to do something about those hamstrings."
** "I gave you a chance didn't I? Didn't old Rick try to give you a hand? Well I can't help somebody who doesn't want to be helped. You're fired."

** Shortly before Trager appears, Miles can find one of his "files", written after the disaster that wrecked the asylum and let the Variants loose. He describes his murders as "slimming back personnel" for cost savings, admits to being "new to this whole 'doctor' thing", and confirms that "now I can say with absolute certainty that a person can't live without his kidneys."

* The entire torture scene with the doctor, Trager, can be kind of amusing with [[FauxAffablyEvil his nonsensical friendly comments]], which can make the scene a bit of a BlackComedy.

** "HOLD UP THERE BUDDY, I'LL BE RIGHT WITH YA"

* In the sewer level, if you go into a certain locker, Chris Walker will check the one next to it, see there's nothing inside, close it.... and open it again. Yes, he checked the same locker twice. Because why not.

* The entire [[spoiler: torture]] scene with the doctor, Trager, can be kind of amusing with [[FauxAffablyEvil his nonsensical friendly comments]], which can make the scene a bit of a BlackComedy.

** After Miles [[spoiler: kills Trager by trapping him between floors with an elevator]], he writes a sarcastic note if you view the corpse with the camera on how to make "Trager Juice."

-->'''Miles:''' I can't believe [[spoiler:Father Martin]] one-upped Jesus Christ himself in shitty ways to die.
-->'''Miles:''' I know I've said it before, but fuck this place. [[spoiler:I've still got [[FlippingTheBird those fingers]] left.]]
* There's a brief moment in the game where [[spoiler: Miles just barely misses a jump, causing the floor to collapse, also causing him to drop his camera. As you watch it slip through the floor, Miles feebly lowers his arm, as if thinking "Well, shit."]]

* In a rather GallowsHumor sense, upon pressing the elevator button in the lobby at the beginning of the game, [[spoiler: a screaming inmate is dropped from somewhere far above you down the elevator shaft.]] It's an achievement in the Xbox One version.
* When Miles encounters [[spoiler: the Walrider]] for the first time, if the player is fast enough he responds by [[NoJustNoReaction slamming the door in its face]].
** Hell, when opening a door containing ANYBODY, from run of the mill inmates to the subbosses to [[spoiler: the Walrider]], [[NoJustNoReaction slamming the door in their face]] [[RunningGag is the ONLY reaction players will often take]].

** When he's [[spoiler:hanging Waylon,]] Gluskin quips, [[BlackComedy "If this is you on the honeymoon, I'd hate to imagine our anniversary!"]]
