4	* This gem from "Slowtown":
5	-->Put cards on our spokes and make our engine sounds like traffic
6	-->When using TabletopGame/{{Pokemon}} cards, [[SeriousBusiness please do not use the holographics]].
7	* "Migraine" is about Tyler's struggle with depressing thoughts, but its tone and imagery is playful and sometimes quite funny, most noticeably when he strays into a characteristic bit of SuddenlyShouting followed by an immediate reserved apology.
8	-->I AM NOT AS FINE AS I SEEM!
9	-->Pardon me for yelling...
10	* Likewise, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqem6k_3pZ8 "Not Today"]] has this gem:
11	-->Oh, [[SuddenlyShouting DON'T YOU TEST ME]], no!
12	-->JUST BECAUSE I PLAY THE PIANO!
13	-->DOESN'T MEAN
14	-->I'M NOT WILLING TO TAKE YOU DOWN!
15	-->...I'm sorry.
16	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOYwAoUT74Y "False Sense of Sweetness".]] A very young Tyler and friends throw various objects at a cardboard box. Tyler misses the target by several feet and sends a knife flying through the window, leaving a perfect hole in the glass.
17	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FQCur058g4 "TB Saga"]], a [[EpicRocking six minute]] mashup of parody songs about Taco Bell performed by Tyler and some of his high school friends. StylisticSuck abounds.
18	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On13n5qBqzI&ab_channel=Ibyb2 The Lip Sync video]]. It consists entirely of Tyler and his brother, Zack, lip syncing and dancing to pop songs. Exactly why it exists is unclear, which really only makes it funnier.
19	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGrsXAoBFMs The "Happy Wheels" video]].[[note]]It's kind of gory.[[/note]]
20	** Tyler and Josh are definitely ''[[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial not]]'' on a bed. They're at the pool, with like three other chicks, who Josh [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday is attracted to]].
21	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IUBt02nnxw "Coconut Sharks in the Water"]]. Just ''try'' to watch it without smiling.
22	* During one concert, Tyler asked for a phone to take a picture of the audience after playing "Car Radio". [[https://youtu.be/lA6nQp_bCG8?t=4m43s One fan handed him an actual car radio.]]
23	-->'''Tyler''': ''Finally!'' Now I can listen to music.
24	* Tyler's struggle with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARxWeeWWUfY finding a cool way to hold a ukulele]].
25	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPE76L-RUuI Twenty One Pilots]]: DownOnTheFarm is comic gold from start to finish.
26	** The boys' general CityMouse attitude, particularly their despair at a lack of [=WiFi=], which leads Josh to [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} go wandering alone out into a field looking for a signal]].
27	** Their continued insistence on wearing their CoolShades [[SunglassesAtNight indoors]]... [[TheCuckoolanderWasRight which is later validated]] (or, at least, is claimed to be), when it keeps pig spit out of Tyler's eyes.
28	** Tyler's understated IAmTheBand attitude.
29	--->'''Ben''': It's a two-person cab, but only one person can drive it.
30	--->'''Tyler''': Kinda sounds like our band. ''[[{{Beat}} (receives look from Josh)]]'' I don't wanna be awkward about it, but I am the lead singer.
31	*** Josh's subsequent [[TheDogBitesBack use of this to get out of driving the truck]].
32	** Tyler admits to the camera that he acts more important than Josh [[GreenEyedMonster out of jealousy]] and sings praises of his character and talent. Josh begins to say something similar, but gets cut off by Tyler telling him to get back to work.
33	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHHkLLH36Ng Ride Swap with Vinyl Theatre]]. Tyler and Josh check out their opening band's van, while Vinyl Theater explores their tour bus.
34	** Vinyl Theatre confidently gives a tour of the bus, even though [[KnowNothingKnowItAll they don't know where anything is located]] and can't even open the doors and cabinets.
35	** Vinyl Theatre's Josh lays down the rules of the bus bathroom.
36	-->'''Josh''': If you break it, you buy it. No number twos. You can take a shower if you want, but there's just a sink, gotta make due with what you got.
37	** Tyler and Josh describe all the interesting things that show up in an opener van with great enthusiasm, including (but not limited to) a Music/OneDirection journal, an old, broken cooler (or "holder") containing two ancient Coke cans, Anti Monkey Butt Powder, a can of Ultra Duster, wipes, peroxide, underwear, and a neon green hat bearing the slogan "Rolling with the Homies". The duo try their hand at making some marketing slogans for them to pass the time.
38	--->Anti Monkey Butt Powder: You can't go wrong with a little Franchise/DonkeyKong.
39	--->Wet Ones: Keeping things wet since 1988.
40	--->Hydrogen Peroxide: Got ebola? [[CrossesTheLineTwice Not anymore.]]
41	--->Hanes Undertees: If you don't got brains, you don't got Hanes.
42	* Josh changed his Twitter username to "Spooky Josh"[[note]]A ShoutOut to Series/TheXFiles ("Spooky Mulder") as Josh is [[JustForFun/OneOfUs a fan]][[/note]] for October 2014. After October was over, he was flooded with people tweeting him telling to change his name since Halloween was over... so he changed it to [[ExactWords "Spooky Jim"]].
43	* For some reason, a German TV program once asked Tyler and Josh to act out the balcony scene of ''Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet''... in German. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8ct1QE5QZ4 The results were hilarious.]]
44	** After stumbling through the German script, Tyler doesn't recognize "Capulet" as the original English name and pronounces it as "Capoolet". [[HiddenDepths He is immediately corrected by Josh.]]
45	* While touring in Australia, [[https://youtu.be/uoYC4K3E-y0?t=1m46s Tyler is attacked by a bird and Josh greets a chill kangaroo]].
46	* During the 2015 [=VMAs=], the band was seated two rows behind Music/KanyeWest. One of the "moments" of the evening was Kanye getting out of his seat and dancing to Music/TheWeeknd. In all videos/[=GIFs=] of this, the band are visible behind him. While Jenna, Josh, and {{Music/Halsey}}[[note]]whom Josh brought as his date[[/note]] all seem fairly normal, if a little bored, Tyler looks [[https://vine.co/v/eITKOK1mOgz incredibly uncomfortable]]. The following day, Buzzfeed put up a "Which Audience Member Sitting Behind Dancing Kanye Are You?" quiz. Unfortunately, whoever ''made'' the quiz was unfamiliar with the band and not only mistook Jenna for a seat filler (and Halsey for Creator/RubyRose), but ended up making Tyler's result "''That guy who just fucking hates Kanye''".[[note]]The fanbase made enough noise about this in the comment section that the quiz was later updated to correct all three of these mistakes. There was also, unfortunately, no Josh result.[[/note]]
47	* Tyler and Josh ran a poll on Twitter where fans could vote for one of them to tattoo his name onto the other onstage. Accompanying this was an extensive faux-presidential campaign involving cheesy slogans, petty attack ads, and a series of debates over [[SeriousBusiness serious issues]] like putting Red Bull in school vending machines, integrating Twitter and Instagram, and eliminating social media advertisements.[[note]]The poll resulted in a 50/50 tie, so they both tattooed each other.[[/note]]
48	** This gem:
49	--->'''Tyler''': -but when I see someone with an [[Website/{{Twitter}} egg profile pic]], they don't matter!
50	--->'''Josh''': But my stance is that they do matter. And so do you. Vote for Josh Dun.
51	** One of Tyler's attack ads:
52	--->'''Voice-Over''': Josh Dun: a loving, caring family man. But did you know [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous he pours his milk before he pours his cereal]]?
53	--->'''Tyler''': My name's Tyler Joseph and I approve this message.[[note]]Josh would later protest this as a blatant falsehood.[[/note]]
54	** Also from one of Tyler's ads:
55	--->'''Voice-Over''': Josh Dun: an enthusiastic show drummer. But does he know the lyrics to his own songs? Well... he knows, like, "Holding On to You" because he's been playing it for so many years. But the other stuff? No.
56	** That being said, Josh's attacks had some great humor, too.
57	--->'''Voice-Over:''' Tyler Joseph says he will get everyone verified on Twitter. But do you know who's ''not'' verified on Twitter? [[HypocriticalHumor His entire family.]]
58	--->'''Josh:''' My name is Josh Dun and I approve this message.
59	* Tyler and Josh's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSRxSnpiuz8 trip to Disney World]] is {{Adorkable}} nonsense from start to finish.
60	* Tyler and his family's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9T5zW6y7THE&nohtml5=False HarlemShake video]]. Planking Papa Joseph is the kicker.
61	* During the 2016 Emotional Roadshow, Tyler, Josh, and opening bands Mutemath and Chef'Special covered Music/CelineDion's "My Heart Will Go On". The fact that they played the ''Film/{{Titanic\|1997}}'' song with complete sincerity is funny itself, but Josh brought it over the top by replicating the film's most famous scene by standing in front of Tyler, arms spread Creator/KateWinslet-style, at the song's high note.
62	* Near the end of "The Judge" during the chorus, you can hear Tyler shouting "JOSH DUN!" in the background.
63	** [[https://youtu.be/fl8qKeaYKnA?t=4m10s He even does it during live performances, too.]]
64	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIoB3kNDK90 David McCreary's]] interview of Tyler and Josh. (Full disclosure: [=McCreary=] is friends with both from their home church, and Tyler has collaborated with him in a few comedy acts, so the interview is staged for maximum awkwardness.)
65	** At the start, David claims that Josh's name is Todd, even when he and Tyler both try to correct him. By the end, Josh gives up and refers to himself as Todd...to which David actually calls him Josh and acts confused as to why he'd call himself Todd.
66	** Next, David ends up taking the band name a bit too literally.
67	--->'''David''': Do we just wait for the rest of the guys, or...?\
68	'''Tyler (to Josh)''': He thinks there's more people.\
69	'''Josh''': More people in the band?\
70	'''David''': Yeah.\
71	'''Tyler''': There's just two of us.\
72	'''David''': Well, there should be... nineteen more.\
73	(''Josh {{facepalm}}s'')\
74	'''Tyler''': [[NeverHeardThatOneBefore Oh, there it is.]] [[DeadpanSnarker That's a good joke.]]
75	* For Christmas 2016, Tyler joined some friends at his home church to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xac4Cbo1X-Q perform a few parodies]] of standard ChristmasSongs, with Tyler in full DeadpanSnarker mode.
76	* On a select number of tour dates on the 2017 Emotional Roadshow, Tyler put aside part of the show [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omWlqeHAkRY to play Mario Kart with a fan onstage]].
77	* When they won a MediaNotes/{{Grammy Award}} for "Stressed Out" in 2017, Tyler and Josh seemingly inexplicably took off their pants before taking the stage in boxer briefs. Tyler then gave his rationale for the decision in his acceptance speech, which is equal parts silly and SugarWiki/{{heartwarming\|Moments}}:
78	-->"It was a few years ago, and it was before Josh and I were able to make money playing music, and I called him up, and I said, 'Hey, Josh, do you want to come over to my rental house and watch the Grammys?' And he said, 'Yeah, who’s hanging there?', and I said, 'It’s a couple of my roommates, just come and watch the Grammys with us.' As we were watching, we noticed that every single one of us was in our underwear. And seriously, Josh turned to me -- we were no one at the time -- he turned to me and said, 'You know, if we ever go to the Grammys, if we ever ''win'' a Grammy...we should receive it just like this.'"
79	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yj7Nto4Gew8 Tyler and Jenna's wedding dance]]. Words can't really do it justice.
80	* [[https://twitter.com/joshuadun/status/873629686420688896 Josh has now become aware of how nigh-impractically bright his hair can be]].
81	** [[https://twitter.com/conorpmangan/status/873707904318230528 In case you needed proof...]]
82	** [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DB_DII-VoAA6GLU.jpg This picture]], showcasing Josh and Music/{{Beyonce}} in equal states of emotional distress.
83	* [[https://twitter.com/joshuadun/status/887546730467790848 Josh may have just confirmed himself as a fan of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/user/h3h3Productions h3h3productions]].
84	* After a year-long social media hiatus from both Josh and Tyler, Josh finally broke the silence with two tweets:
85	--> ''Morning''
86	--> ''Sorry about all that. Tyler and I were tying to decide which one of us is still in the band and who is out etc. I think we got it sorted now''
87	** Tyler responded with an equally ridiculous excuse:
88	---> ''oh,[[BlatantLies i was taking a bath]]''
89	* This twitter exchange:
90	--> '''@Ashlieistrash:''' I THOUGHT THIS WAS A [[ImYourBiggestFan STAN]] ACCOUNT
91	--> '''Josh:''' [[MetaphoricallyTrue It is I guess]]
92	* ''Trench'' was released on the same week as the ''Film/AStarIsBorn2018'' soundtrack. The band acknowledged this with [[https://twitter.com/twentyonepilots/status/1048688346346737665 this tweet]].
93	* At a festival show in Quebec, Tyler asked Josh if he'd be willing to sing "Can't Help Falling In Love" with him. Josh jokingly replied he would if he would still be allowed to sit. [[https://twitter.com/TOPUPDATERS/status/1148061052204179456?s=20 Cue a duet with Josh sitting on Tyler's shoulders.]]
94	* Tyler and Jenna attended a 2019 Halloween party as [[Film/HowTheGrinchStoleChristmas Cindy Lou Who and the Grinch]]. [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xejz-XECUdg/hqdefault.jpg Tyler shaved his legs for the part]].
95	* Tyler's younger brother Jay streams on Twitch and jokingly set a subscriber stretch goal to dye his hair blonde and dress as [[Series/DinersDriveinsAndDives Guy Fieri]] for Halloween. Tyler didn't hesitate to [[https://twitter.com/tylerrjoseph/status/1189706459279286273 use his platform]].
96	* The music video for "Saturday" includes the original song's clip of Tyler talking to Jenna about finishing working on a song rather than going to watch ''Series/{{Friends}}'', despite the music video taking place on a sinking submarine. Tyler takes the call casually while up to his chest in water (with Jenna also included in the video doing her part), and Josh [[DuctTapeForEverything attempts to tape up holes in the hull]] [[FunnyBackgroundEvent in the background]]. The scene is punctuated by Josh "stealing" Tyler's subsequent high-note, complete with a dramatic zoom.
97	* While shooting motion capture footage for their ''Platform/{{Roblox}}'' concert, Josh took a [[ToiletHumor bathroom break]]… [[https://twitter.com/twentyonepilots/status/1435602796733214729?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet with his suit still on]]. Every movement of his got captured by the motion capture software.
