* FriendlyFandoms: With ''WebVideo/CrashThompson''.
* FunnyAneurysmMoment: In the Regretting the Past episode on ''All the Right Reasons'' by Music/{{Nickelback}}, Luke intentionally skips over "Photograph" before WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic shows up to scorn him for skipping "Photograph" when he had to watch ''[[WesternAnimation/FoodFight Foodfight!]]'' in its entirety. After the two start arguing, Luke caves and talks about "Photograph" anyway, and after Luke asks the Critic if he is happy, he says, "Oh, I'm always happy when I see another critic in agony." This video was made in 2015, when Rocked was part of Website/ChannelAwesome, but this line became a FAM following the infamous [[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WZFkR__B3Mk9EYQglvislMUx9HWvWhOaBP820UBa4dA/preview "Not So Awesome"]] scandal, an incident where several former and then-current producers from Channel Awesome came forward to address mismanagement, sexual harassment, and abuse by Channel Awesome's management team. Creator/DougWalker, the actor who plays the Nostalgia Critic, while being listed as "talent", was actually involved in several company decisions through his brother Rob being an official manager, and was confirmed to have abused the cast and crew involved in Channel Awesome's anniversary film, ''WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee''. As a result of this scandal, almost all of the Channel Awesome producers (including Luke) left the site, the exceptions being the Walker Brothers, Creator/BradJones, and [[WebVideo/GuruLarryAndWez Larry Bundy Jr.]]
* HarsherInHindsight: His video "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovqUxSnniGg Will We Ever Be Happy Again With Linkin Park?]]", where he discusses the future of the band after the negatively-received album ''One More Light'', quickly became this when frontman Chester Bennington committed suicide a month later. Surprisingly enough, the video was unlisted or privated after the news broke out.
* HePannedItNowHeSucks: Fans of Music/LimpBizkit and Music/{{Nickelback}} were not happy with his ''Regretting the Past'' videos on these respective artists. He even brings up that he got death threats for insulting the former in his RTP on Nickelback's ''All the Right Reasons''.
* HeartwarmingInHindsight: In the ''Regretting the Past'' episode on Music/FallOutBoy's ''Save Rock and Roll'', when talking about the title track that features Music/EltonJohn, a speech bubble appears stating "We've lost [[Music/DavidBowie a]] [[Music/{{Prince}} lot]] [[Music/EarthWindAndFire of]] [[Music/ChristinaGrimmie musicians]] [[Music/MerleHaggard in]] [[Music/{{Eagles}} 2016]]. For the love of God please don't take Elton away also." Come the end of the year, and Luke got his wish.
* HilariousInHindsight: Luke's frustration over Music/{{Tool}}'s DevelopmentHell over their long-awaited fifth album in the ''[[Music/GunsNRoses Chinese Democracy]]'' RTP becomes this when, in 2019, Tool ''finally'' released their first album in ''thirteen years''.
* MemeticMutation: This is not about seeeex.....'''SEEEEEEX!!!!'''[[note]]A RunningGag from the Regretting the Past episode on Creed's ''Weathered'', more specifically an incredibly {{narm}}y moment in the song "Signs".[[/note]]
** The Denny's stalker.[[note]]Another RunningGag in the same series, used to describe lyrics with rather disturbingly [[StalkerWithACrush stalker-esque vibes]]. He even makes an (off-screen) appearance at the end of the Buckcherry RTP![[/note]]
** Using "[[Music/LimpBizkit Durst]]" as a euphemism or verb to describe how something sucks.

* FanHater: Subverted. Often when he's harshly criticizing a song or band, he will admit that he doesn't have a problem with his viewers actually liking what he doesn't. Sadly, this doesn't stop him from getting hate comments (see below). What's even amusing is that Luke has made it clear he doesn't have a ''problem'' with said bands people enjoy (although he doesn't reserve that for Music/LimpBizkit, Music/SimplePlan, Music/KidRock or Music/{{Trapt}}).
** There's also a bit of SelfDeprecation, since he bought some of the albums being reviewed back in the day.
