* InsaneTrollLogic: Simpleflips, and all his friends, operate entirely on this in VideoGame/TroubleInTerroristTown.

* CatchPhrase: "First try, idiot!"[[note]]dating back to "Mario Maker User Created Level Highlights 2"[[/note]] and later "Brush your teeth, bitch!"

* BootstrappedTheme: His outro theme is actually the Nimbus Land music from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG''.

* GutturalGrowler: {{Invoked|Trope}} in "The Ultimate Boss."
-->''[Mario [[{{Knockback}} bonks]] and [[BottomlessPits falls]]]''\\
'''Simple:''' Nooooo... ''[notices his voice]'' [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas Number nine... number forty five...]]

-->'''Simple:''' I'm not gonna shoot you, I'm Inno! (''Stabs Alphappy with a knife he got from the traitor earlier.'')
-->'''Someone:''' Simple why'd you knife him?\\

* MyEyesAreUpHere: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in "First-Person Mario 64," when Mario's view is locked onto the racing penguin's lower body.

** [[https://youtu.be/ttGUUfn8dnQ?t=38 "Holy fuck, Mario's head!"]]

** He takes ''[[spoiler:over two whole hours]]'' to backwards long jump ([[https://simpleflips.fandom.com/wiki/BLJ "BLJ"]]) for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx2XDSO3fjU one star]] on the "Sanctuary of Space" level in ''Shining Stars 3'', when the [[https://youtu.be/juNClqS6PJk intended route]] only requires LavaSurfing on a Koopa shell and takes around three minutes.
** [[invoked]] A recreation of the level by ben3759, with the star named "BLJ [[AssShove the Thwomp's Cock]]," took him a good half hour in spite of [[CameraScrew camera issues]], but the resulting [[HellIsThatNoise ungodly scream]] of [[BigYes triumph]] more than made up for it ([[https://youtu.be/1Idamirq8xs?t=522 seen here]]).

-->'''Simple:''' I want the snowman to [[SuperBreath blow me]] [[https://youtu.be/5uJYpXeXpMs?t=338 so hard.]]

--->'''[[https://youtu.be/e0K4Y2MHy0E?t=43 Simple:]]''' He's not ''actually'' my man. [[LikeIsLikeAComma Like]], I'm not capable of owning any humans after... after that [[UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln Abe Lincoln]] shit.\\

* FullFrontalAssault: Say hello to [[https://youtu.be/tD6SAr5f71s "BLJ the Bup's Cock."]]

-->'''Someone:''' Simple why'd you knife him?
-->'''Simple:''' [[ExactWords I didn't shoot him!]]
-->'''Someone:''' True! Alright you can live.

** [[https://youtu.be/IqKoIUm7p40?t=196 "Is this Gay Baby Jail?"]]

* RuleOfThree: "No, no, yes! Nooo... yesss! ''[[https://youtu.be/mYeKAOY8zJ4?t=40 Fuckin' stop!"]]''

* TemptingFate: Any time Simple compliments a hack or his current circumstances, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsXEWN17xCw&t=8s things]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERRYYlkEnGg&t=167s tend]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nV2oaYeQaMs&t=115s to]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5x7Mw3z2es&t=64s go]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqKoIUm7p40&t=15s south]] almost immediately after. [[https://youtu.be/43B4JQh1B1A?t=5 Or do they?]]
-->'''[[https://youtu.be/YdSDR_WeAcI?t=21 Foxen:]]''' Imagine dying in this.\\

* TooDumbToLive: After completing a speedrun, Simple (being a speedrunner who does "cool dumb shit") decides to [[https://youtu.be/mYeKAOY8zJ4?t=67 jump-dive towards the star]] with one segment of HP left. He predictably misses, causing Mario to die of fall damage.

** Pretty much any 1, 2, Oatmeal remix wherein the original vocals have been replaced with those from another song (as opposed to just putting the 1, 2, Oatmeal vocals on an instrumental song). Examples include [[https://youtu.be/yPq_f7_7fnU?t=197 Mambo No. 5]], [[Music/SmashMouth All]] [[https://youtu.be/XqVLTsyJOO8 Star]], and, of course, [[https://youtu.be/ABO-w9jEIoY a Simpleflips cover]].

** '''''[[https://youtu.be/fX_nAIbZyPY?t=108 SIMPLEFLIPS THE MOVIE]]''''' (Watch to the end at your [[NotSafeForWork own risk.]])

* {{Gaslighting}}: Whilst racing with his friends in Tetris Plus, simple manages to convince his friend Dawn that there are minigames, which he succeeds in since he has never played the game before.

* WhatsAHenway: Simple has a knack for [[VulgarHumor ligma]] jokes. It's gotten to the point where an unusual character name may arouse suspicion in him, as he sometimes assumes it's a setup for a ligma joke.

* SirSwearsALot: He seems to enjoy referencing autofellatio whenever he gets [[{{Pun}} screwed]] over in a game.

** A recreation of the level by ben3759, with the star named "BLJ [[AssShove the Thwomp's Cock]]," took him a good half hour in spite of [[CameraScrew camera issues]], but the resulting [[HellIsThatNoise ungodly scream]] of [[BigYes triumph]] more than made up for it ([[https://youtu.be/1Idamirq8xs?t=522 seen here]]).

* GutturalGrowler: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] in "The Ultimate Boss."

* JustAStupidAccent: [[https://youtu.be/5uJYpXeXpMs?t=246 "I'm gonna game ohh-va!"]]

* MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext: The term "[[QueerPeopleAreFunny gay]] baby jail," used to refer to [[{{Unwinnable}} softlocks]]--it was [[https://youtu.be/Cbmexa2ww3M?t=121 created by a fan]], and Simple found it funny enough to adopt it. Later in the same video, he got GBJ'd in a [[GagPenis phallic level]]--twice.

* NotWhatItLooksLike: From [[https://youtu.be/qsVNNObhBq0?t=286 "Gay Baby Jail 64"]] ([[NotSafeForWork NSFW]] warning). The star also happens to be called "In His A." This [[https://youtu.be/fX_nAIbZyPY?t=121 isn't the first time]] a ROM hack that Simple played has had blatant {{Ass Shove}}s in it.

* {{Scatting}}: Done by Simple [[https://youtu.be/6-B9OJ9RML0?t=502 over a copyrighted song]] to avoid getting Content ID'd. It works.

* TemptingFate: Any time Simple compliments a hack or his current circumstances, [[https://youtu.be/zsXEWN17xCw?t=8 things]] [[https://youtu.be/ERRYYlkEnGg?t=167 tend]] [[https://youtu.be/nV2oaYeQaMs?t=115 to]] [[https://youtu.be/P5x7Mw3z2es?t=64 go]] [[https://youtu.be/IqKoIUm7p40?t=15 south]] almost immediately after. [[https://youtu.be/43B4JQh1B1A?t=5 Or do they?]]

** Lampshaded [[https://youtu.be/PqMDNB82ytw?t=9 here.]]
** Foxen [[https://youtu.be/UtZ3LfqXpiE?t=27 isn't immune to this.]]

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Simple once took a shortcut on a slide and ended up accidentally spawning a star. [[https://youtu.be/tGPRtMw9TRo?t=46 Couldn't have been easier,]] indeed.

-->'''[[https://youtu.be/hJo6sn9gVcM?t=221 Simple:]]''' I didn't mean to warp to Fuckville, population ''just me!''

-->'''[[https://youtu.be/e0K4Y2MHy0E?t=43 Simple:]]''' He's not ''actually'' my man. [[LikeIsLikeAComma Like]], I'm not capable of owning any humans after... after that [[UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln Abe Lincoln]] shit.
-->'''Simple:''' Earth is over thousands of years old, dumbass. ''[reads reply]'' "More like billions." Imagine this guy is trying to correct me when I said, "Earth is over a thousand years old." [[LikeIsLikeAComma Like]], as if my sentence could ever be wrong. Which it's not. Earth ''is'' over a thousand years old.

* SmallNameBigEgo: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]]. Simple will [[SarcasmMode jokingly]] refer to himself as having an IQ of 200. In the same vein, whenever he performs an unaccounted-for clutch move, it's "[[ClickbaitGag Speedrunners hate him!]]"
