** While playing ''Babysitting Mama'' for a "Weird Controllers" stream, [[ItMakesSenseInContext a minigame where Mama picks up paper]] has Jon joking that Mama has [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure a Stand that can stop time]], with a co-commentator saying her Stand is called [[{{Music/Queen}} "Mama, ooh-ooh."]] In {{Manga/JoJos Bizarre Adventure Stone Ocean}}, there is an actual Stand named Bohemian Rhapsody (though it doesn't stop time).

** Happened unintentionally with an incident when Jon accidentally ended his June 24, 2017 Stream after cutting a game short due to excessive backseaters; the period of time between him cutting off the stream and going live again to explain what happened was filled with people in chat pointing out exactly how harmful backseat gaming is to the streamer and the viewers, how it basically equates to bullying, and how even a small amount of backseaters are enough to set someone off. Then, after Jon comes back live and performs the raid he intended to do, all seems to be forgiven, which leads one chat user to make a post after the stream calling out everyone for seemingly forgetting everything that had happened with the backseaters tonight, and suggests that those people rethink their life and their priorities.

Not helping is the second camp's tendency to spam the [=protonSub=] emote (a pixel art illustration of Kermit holding a submarine sandwich) in both Twitch chat and Discord, which while being in good fun is perceived by the first camp as annoyingly disruptive.

* DiscreditedMeme:
** Most of the memes revolving around Jon's earlier videos seem to have become this, especially in light of Jon's own CreatorBacklash against them ("Move Faster Pokey" being a particularly infamous offender). Nowadays, these memes are only brought up ironically, or as a way to illustrate examples of memes that have aged poorly over the years.
** The [[Franchise/TheMuppets Party Cruise Rap]] seems to be rapidly entering this territory as of late, with general reaction from Jon and chat devolving from bemused "goddammit"s to outright exasperation. One egg video that poorly mashes up the song with the ''Film/SpaceJam'' theme seems to have been the final straw for the meme, with Jon explicitly stating in response that the meme had outlived its humor.

** During the Four Job Fiesta, Jon ends up saying nearly verbatim the idea of the "Captain Falcon Roulette" from ''LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys Colosseum''. When this is pointed out to him, he lost his mind laughing because he had legitimately forgotten about it and not a bit of that was based on the conversation.

* NewerThanTheyThink: Jon's association with eggs (and Albert Wesker) only dates from his ''Resident Evil 5'' co-op with LetsPlay/SuperJeenius in 2013 when he talked about the rotten egg challenge (play the game using only rotten eggs as weapons) and Wesker's LargeHam "You will give me an egg!" voice clip. He then decided to use an egg as a subscriber symbol when he began Twitch streaming and use the voice clip when a new subscriber joined. To say these have become so strongly associated with Jon, they only came about ''six years'' into his career of being a Let's Player.

The overlap appears to be more visible on Jon's channel than on Vinny's or Joel's, though.
