* Character gets mad and transforms/[[VideoGame/VSSky "obligatory last song transformation"]]/The [[VideoGame/VSWhitty Whitty]] Syndrome [[labelnote:Explanation]]A concept specific to modding. [[FollowTheLeader Following the success]] of ''VideoGame/VSWhitty'', mods where the final song undergoes a steep DifficultySpike, [[SequelEscalation dramatically raises the stakes]] and has the opponent [[OneWingedAngel change into a more powerful form]] or unleash a SuperpoweredEvilSide became very common. This became so prevalent that many people in the fandom have grown tired of it, and "Whitty Syndrome" became a pejorative term, [[SeinfeldIsUnfunny despite Whitty himself doing it back when the concept was still fresh]] (in fact, the concept was started by Senpai and technically Monster's HostileShowTakeover in Week 5, official characters rather than fanon ones). Later mods, such as the aforementioned ''VideoGame/VSSky'' - where the Girlfriend is thoroughly unimpressed by her would-be romantic rival's [[DarkerAndEdgier edgy]] metamorphosis - will often subvert, avert, or lampshade the idea, with mods like ''VideoGame/LiterallyEveryFNFModEver'' even parodying the concept.[[/labelnote]]

** In "Pico", the beginning verse is often misheard as "Go, Pico! Yeah! Yeah! Go, Pico! Yeah!"

* Likewise, [[spoiler:Spirit]] is often compared to [[spoiler:Giygas]] from ''VideoGame/{{Earthbound}}''.

* NO! '''NO!!!''' ''YOU WILL NOT EAT MY GIRRRRLFRIEEEEEND!!''[[labelnote:Explanation]][=YouTuber=] [=CoryxKenshin=]'s playthrough featured this gem where during "Monster" he screams this line ''in-tune'' to BF's verse and it has become subject to several animations and parodies.[[/labelnote]]

* The [[VideoGame/PaRappaTheRapper PaRappa]] paradox.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Due to ''Friday Night Funkin[='=]'' taking major inspiration from the ''[=PaRappa=]'' series' call-and-response format to its music and gameplay, it's a popular idea among fans of both series that if Boyfriend and [=PaRappa=] were to get into a battle, neither would be able to do anything as they would endlessly wait for the other to start.[[/labelnote]]

* "Or maybe turn her into ''[[bruh]]''" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Another mishearing of the Monster's lyrics in, well, "[[VillainSong Monster]]". (The line is supposed to be "broth"). It caught plenty attention and jokes for the absurdity of it.[[/labelnote]]

* "Or maybe turn her into ''[[{{Mondegreen}} bruh]]''" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Another mishearing of the Monster's lyrics in, well, "[[VillainSong Monster]]". (The line is supposed to be "broth"). It caught plenty attention and jokes for the absurdity of it.[[/labelnote]]

* "Big ol' bunny"[[labelnote:Explanation]]A common MemeticMutation of Boyfriend's first few lyrics of "Philly Nice". There's a lot of jokes and videos about it.[[/labelnote]]

* "Or maybe turn her into ''[[{{Mondegreen}} bruh]]''" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Another MemeticMutation of the Monster's lyrics in, well, "[[VillainSong Monster]]". (The line is supposed to be "broth"). It caught plenty attention and jokes for the absurdity of it.[[/labelnote]]

* Monster is a [[PaedoHunt pedophile]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]While he wants to [[ImAHumanitarian eat]] Boyfriend and Girlfriend (and while both of them [[OlderThanTheyLook are canonically 19]]), many consider Monster's unhealthy obsession for them more sexual than... [[UnusualEuphemism gastronomic]].[[/labelnote]]

* Character gets mad and transforms[[labelnote:Explanation]]Following the release of Week 6 where Senpai gets increasing pissed and Spirit breaks fee from their body, it's common for mods to feature an antagonist who slowly lose their cool before eventually turning into something terrifying. VideoGame/LiterallyEveryFNFModEver parodies the over usage of this trend.[[/labelnote]]

* Ritz vs. Tankman[[labelnote:Explanation]]During the time that leaks and rumors were floating around about Week 7 before its' release, there was much debate on who the opponent would be and everyone's eyes were on two candidates in particular: Ritz the Rat, the protagonist of Ninjamuffin's previous platformer game before FNF titled ''Ritz'', and Tankman, the mascot of Newgrounds and star of [=JohnnyUtah=]'s "Tankmen" series, where the character's real name is Sergeant John Captain. Many fans divided themselves into two sides, Team Ritz vs. Team Tankman, and many memes spawned of the two doing battle and being bitter rivals. Finally, after many weeks, the crew finally broke the silence and revealed the first song of the week, "Ugh", which featured [=JohnnyUtah=]'s vocals, and flat-out confirmed that Captain would be the Week 7 opponent. Ninjamuffin confirmed shortly after the song's release that Ritz will indeed still show up at a different point in the future. Furthermore, with multiple playable characters confirmed for the full version of the game, it's possible that Ritz vs. Tankman can become an official in-game reality.[[/labelnote]]

* [[VideoGame/VSSky "obligatory last song transformation"]] / The [[VideoGame/VSWhitty Whitty]] Syndrome [[labelnote:Explanation]]A concept specific to modding. [[FollowTheLeader Following the success]] of ''VideoGame/VSWhitty'', mods where the final song undergoes a steep DifficultySpike, [[SequelEscalation dramatically raises the stakes]] and has the opponent [[OneWingedAngel change into a more powerful form]] or unleash a SuperpoweredEvilSide became very common.

* "omg is that [x] from friday night funkin?!?!?!?" / "I swear if I hear people saying [x] character is from FNF" (where X is a GameMod or {{Crossover}} character) [[labelnote:Explanation]]A way to bastardize the [[PeripheryDemographic children fanbase of the game and those unaware of 2000's internet media]], it began with young people commenting in the ''WebAnimation/SpookyMonth'' videos believing that Skid and Pump were original to Friday Night Funkin', then it passed on to Tricky from ''WebAnimation/MadnessCombat'' after ''Videogame/TheTrickyMod'' was released, with people commenting on ''Madness Combat 11: Expurgation'' that his form present in the episode came from the mod's "Expurgation" song. Whenever a mod based on a much less popular and already-existing character is released (such VideoGame/AlienHominid and VideoGame/FancyPantsAdventures), you will see people saying these two phrases, the former sometimes ''unironically.''[[/labelnote]]

* Fuck Daddy Dearest, all my homies hate him[[labelnote:Explanation]]A popular Fanon idea is that Daddy Dearest is a CompleteMonster who has relentlessly screwed over countless people, and they either resent him or plan to seek vengeance. One of the canon characters, Spirit, is a victim of his, and several popular mods run with the idea, like [[VideoGame/VsWhitty Whitty]], [[VideoGame/SmokeEmOutStruggle Garcello]], [[VideoGame/VsAGOTI A.G.O.T.I.]], and [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend Tabi]], to name a few. [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinHD The HD version]] even says [[BeenThereShapedHistory he learned how to rap]] with [[Music/TupacShakur Tupac]] and [[Music/TheNotoriousBig Biggie]]... [[BlackComedy before killing them both]]. [[/labelnote]]

* Fans ran with the idea that Girlfriend's TrademarkFavoriteDrink is Dr. Pepper Cherry, and it shows up in a lot of fanart as a result.

* SENPAI IS REAL![[labelnote:Explanation]]Fans discovered that one of the accused in an episode of ''Series/JudgeJudy'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBryFEvdHNA looks and dresses in a similar way to Senpai]], even acting like a SoreLoser mirroring Senpai's own actions in the game. People were quick to make edits and memes about the uncanny resemblance as a result. [[/labelnote]]

** In "Pico", the beginning verse is often misheard as "Go Pico, yeah, yeah, go Pico, yeah."

* "Or maybe turn her into ''bruh''" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Another MemeticMutation of the Monster's lyrics in, well, "[[VillainSong Monster]]". It caught plenty attention and jokes for the absurdity of it.[[/labelnote]]
* [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants Mr. Krabs]] in ''Friday Night Funkin[='=]''. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Fans have found similarities between [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeR6J6JM6m4 a scene]] where Mr. Krabs hums to an electronic song composed of beeping noises with the noises the ''Friday Night Funkin[='=]'' cast makes. Several edits where Mr. Krabs is edited into singing the songs such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elskX94JZP8 Dadbattle]] ensued.[[/labelnote]]

* On platforms like [=TikTok=], a common soundbite used features Boyfriend singing a faster version of "Blammed" with many notes, after which Monster utters a confused "[[FlatWhat What?]]"

* "Guns"' final part [[labelnote:Explanation]]Week 7's second song "Guns" features an infamous part at the end where Tankman goes on a fairly complicated pattern for ''32 beats'' in total, making it ThatOneAttack of the week. Thus, memes ran rampant about the sheer length of the section, usually featuring someone getting surprised (or bored, if the song has been played before) as it just goes on and on.[[/labelnote]]

* [x] song but funni [[labelnote:Explanation]]A video fad started by Youtuber [[https://www.youtube.com/c/Skyfall1002 Skyfall]], where a song is edited to be humorous. Common song edits include rearranging or repeating the notes, adding too many notes at once, and inserting dialogue in the songs, usually other memes or things related to ''VideoGame/AmongUs''.[[/labelnote]]
