* InsaneTrollLogic: When Josh mentioned he thought Film/TheHauntedMansion was a bad movie, Tyler claimed he thought it was bad because he doesn't like Black actors. Josh reverses this by calling out Tyler for confusing Eddie Murphy with Will Smith because they look the same to him.

Berserk Button is for overreactions to minor slights. Getting offended over an incest joke isn't quite the same thing. The other one with Tyler isn't something that occurs within the work. Just You Tube comments


* BerserkButton: He laughed at first, but Josh seemed to really not appreciate Tyler joking about his grandma. He also wasn't happy with Tyler claiming that he [Josh] had [[BrotherSisterIncest an incestuous relationship with his little brother]].



** See also BerserkButton (specifically the incest joke).

'''[[https://www.youtube.com/user/versus Versus]]''' is a Website/YouTube Let's Play channel. It features a competitive, co-commentary series of Let's Plays of various games, primarily between LetsPlay/JoshJepson and Creator/TylerSederwall (formerly known as [=AttackingTucans=]). The two race through the games, sometimes with specific sub-rules for each game (get all the blue coins in Mario Sunshine, get the Gold Skulltulas in Zelda, and so on), usually attempting OneHundredPercentCompletion. A heads-up display will keep track of each player's scores and progress as they play together. All the while they play word games, exchange stories, and discuss the finer points of vocabulary and music- with Tyler slipping in off-color jokes and Josh running the gamut of reactions.

* YouMakeMeSic: The Versus was allegedly inspired by a comment on Josh's channel asking him to do another Versus with "atting tunens". The two of them lampshade this, and then "Team Atting Tunens" becomes the obligatory DorkHorseCandidate when commenters vote for the teams, taking 10% of the vote.
** A commenter then actually made an "Atting Tunens" channel, with a note telling Tyler that if he wanted the channel for himself, to message him...except he ''intentionally'' misspelled 'message' as 'massage'.
