* TheCastShowoff: For two months, at the start of every Demo Disk, Bruce would sing an all new song parody releating to Demo Disk to both the delight of the audience and the annoyance to everybody but Joel.

* CriticalResearchFailure: In the Demo Disk episode, [[https://youtu.be/yPZzULh_ojQ?t=17 "Rayman SUCKS"]], Bruce starts rattling off random trivia he knows about {{Film/Braveheart}}, including that principal photography only lasted 21 days. Unable to believe this, Adam and James [[Website/TheOtherWiki look it up]], only to find out that it lasted 42 days – exactly double of what Bruce has insisted every time they discuss Braveheart.
--> '''Adam:''' Should we submit that to [=IMDb=] Trivia?
--> '''James:''' "Did you know that Bruce has always been wrong about how long it took to shoot Braveheart? Every single f*ckin' time he brought up the movie?!"

** Despite a VocalMinority trying to start a FandomRivalry, there is a sizeable overlap between fans of Hat Films, and the LetsPlay/{{Yogscast}} to a lesser extent despite little to no interaction between the groups.
*** Funhaus actually made a video with Yogcast, so the two groups are friendly with each other.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Arguably Lawrence. He's a respected veteran contributor of the group, probably the consistently best player and is famous among fans for his bizarre tangents and [[OccidentalOtaku unabashed love of Japan]], but he's also one of the more criticized and contested members among fans who call said tangents unfunny and/or awkward, and are annoyed by his tendency to become less agreeable when upset (usually when performing unsuccessfully at a video game). Just read the Youtube comments on him.



* EnsembleDarkhorse: Elyse and Peake are probably the least prominent of the core members, but are easily two of the most beloved and generally least controversial. Elyse particularly is considered this by Achievement Hunter, who consider her the only member they can't bring themselves to shit on.


* CounterpartComparison: To Creator/AchievementHunter
** Also to Cow Chop for being a more edgy, comedy/skit based alternative to just gameplays, although in comparison to Cow Chop, Funhaus members' age is beginning to show.

** Perhaps even better was his reaction to his friends and wife being in on the whole thing and doing their own pretend auditions. Talk about an incredible AscendedFanboy moment.

And for people who didn't saw the IGN days and started watching the crew at Funhaus if anything Elyse has spend more time with the crew than Spoole.

* HilariousInHindsight: Crossing over a bit with HarsherInHindsight, many people joked that the reason early Funhaus video descriptions were so ''ridiculously detailed'' (to the point that a video series had an entire original ''Choose Your Own Adventure text serial'' in their descriptions) was because Joel (who wrote them) had nothing else to around the office. As it turns out, this is ''exactly'' what was happening, and the reason Joel quit.

** They naturally have one with Achievement Hunter, for several reasons. These can include the fact that they are the two most popular gaming groups in the Rooster Teeth network, and that they have similar but vast differences in style and humor. A lot of Funhaus fans are also former AH fans who grew disillusioned with AH's shift in style and humor. The two groups are fairly friendly outside of work, and play up the mutual insults for humor.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Serves as one to all of Rooster Teeth, especially their gameplay videos' fans. Not surprising considering Inside Gaming was itself the EnsembleDarkhorse of Machinima. Mostly caused by their unapologetic politically incorrect style, contrasting a lot FH "TEAM FAGS!" or "Pedophile batman supervillains" with AH "Well, I can't say that..." and the fact that they're great at improvising comedy with a lot of fan-rewarding inside jokes.
