** A RunningGag is that Stephen, the film school graduate and camera / cinematography fanatic, watches so few movies and dislikes going to the cinema. He has a sudden realisation during one Breakfast Stream that he didn't watch a single movie (in the cinema or at home) in the whole of the year 2019. Then, despite 2020 being a pandemic year when everyone was stuck inside, that streak extended to two years.

* SawStarWarsTwentySevenTimes: Young Stephen watched ''Film/AceVenturaWhenNatureCalls'' A LOT, and even now (despite being a former film student) it's his go-to example whenever he has to explain a filmmaking or comedy technique. Ironically, he only saw the trope namer ''Star Wars'' itself for the first time in 2018.

* ForgetfulJones: Stephen's notoriously poor memory (for current things, while often being pixel-perfect on media he experienced as a kid) has become something of a RunningGag over the years.

* PopculturalOsmosisFailure: A running joke is Stephen being shaky on the characters and plots of franchises such as ''Harry Potter'', ''Star Wars'' and ''Avatar: The Last Airbender'' (despite actually having watched the later) and coming up with his own names such as "Big Friend" for Hagrid or "Boomerang Buck" for Sokka.

* XDaysSince: In Breakfast Stream, the conversation frequently segues to Stephen talking about cameras or video processing (causing Mal, and some parts of the chat, to zone out). Mods made a Nightbot chat command for "Days since camera talk: 0", the joke being that it never changes from 0 because it never has to.

* AuthorVocabularyCalendar: Stephen likes the phrase 'my third eye decalcified' when referring to a revelation on live streams that lead him to re-examine his understanding of something - in mocking reference to this term being used by conspiracy theorists, as he explains on one of Proton Jon's streams. He also likes using 'galaxy brain' to half-sarcastically describe acts of genius.
