4	----
5	!!Please add entries in the following format if possible:
6	* The meme. [=[[=]labelnote:Explanation[=]]=]The explanation behind the meme, if necessary.[=[[/=]labelnote[=]]=] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Like this.[[/labelnote]]
7	** Further mutations and successor memes, if any.
8	----
9	* Fans ran with the idea that Girlfriend's [[TrademarkFavoriteFood favorite drink]] is Dr. Pepper Cherry, and it shows up in a lot of fanart as a result.
10	* [==]Raps in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing''[==][[labelnote:Explanation]] The [[SpeakingSimlish noises]] the characters make are often compared with the "Simlish" found in the ''Animal Crossing'' series due to the similar pitches and voice tones.[[/labelnote]]
11	* When the Week 6 update came out, many people took to editing Senpai and Boyfriend's dialogue boxes to [[GagDub make them say silly things]], or translating Boyfriend's beeps and boops as [[GagSub hilariously obscene insults]].
12	* Boyfriend's short chibi stature has fans calling him a manlet or a midget.
13	* Boyfriend's "big Hulk hands" compared to Girlfriend's is also a source of memes, with some joking about masturbation.
14	* SENPAI IS REAL![[labelnote:Explanation]]Fans discovered that one of the accused in an episode of ''Series/JudgeJudy'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBryFEvdHNA looks and dresses in a similar way to Senpai]], even acting like a SoreLoser, mirroring Senpai's own actions in the game. People were quick to make edits and memes about the uncanny resemblance as a result. [[/labelnote]]
15	* "Big ol' bunny"[[labelnote:Explanation]]A common mishearing of Boyfriend's first few lyrics of "Philly Nice". There's a lot of jokes and videos about it.[[/labelnote]]
16	** Pico's lyrics are also misheard as "demolishing the mannequin".
17	** In "Pico", the beginning verse is often misheard as "[[BoastfulRap Go, Pico! Yeah! Yeah! Go, Pico! Oh!]]"
18	** Papico tabetai [[labelnote:Explanation]]Japanese for "I want to eat Papico.” Papico being ice cream sealed in flexible plastic bottles, and another common mishearing of the lyrics of "Pico." It is common to see fanworks of Boyfriend eating Papico in the Japanese fanbase.[[/labelnote]]
19	* Daddy Dearest is often compared to Dracula from ''WesternAnimation/HotelTransylvania''.
20	* Likewise, [[spoiler:Spirit]] is often compared to [[spoiler:Giygas]] from ''VideoGame/EarthBound1994''.
21	* "Or maybe turn her into ''bruh''" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Another mishearing of the Monster's lyrics in, well, "[[VillainSong Monster]]". (The line is supposed to be "broth"). It caught plenty attention and jokes for the absurdity of it.[[/labelnote]]
22	* [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants Mr. Krabs]] in ''Friday Night Funkin'''. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Fans have found similarities between [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeR6J6JM6m4 a scene]] where Mr. Krabs hums to an electronic song composed of beeping noises with the noises the ''Friday Night Funkin[='=]'' cast makes. Several edits where Mr. Krabs is edited into singing the songs such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elskX94JZP8 Dadbattle]] ensued.[[/labelnote]]
23	* Cheese Man[[labelnote:Explanation]]A recurring JokeCharacter among the community, [[https://i.imgur.com/bxzan7q.jpg first drawn by Phantom Arcade in one of his twitch streams]] and later became a semi-recurring character in following drawing streams, to the point that some people have actually expressed interest in seeing the Cheese Man [[AscendedFanon become an actual opponent.]][[/labelnote]]
24	* Lemon Demon wants to kill himself for not having an iPhone.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Bassettfilms, voice of the Monster, "teased" a future week by releasing a short remix of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CJIz6VlETw "I ain't got no iPhone"]] by Music/ParryGripp from a Youtube video in a [[https://twitter.com/Bassetfilms/status/1376602966187212808 tweet from his Twitter account]], with the voice of the Monster singing the lyrics while the Boyfriend follows suit. This led to fans making loads of jokes about the Monster's desire to kill himself just because he didn't have an iPhone, many fan animations for this short song, and even a mod for the actual game.[[/labelnote]]
25	* NO! '''NO!!!''' ''YOU WILL NOT EAT MY GIRRRRLFRIEEEEEND!!''[[labelnote:Explanation]][=YouTuber=] WebVideo/CoryxKenshin's playthrough featured this gem where during "Monster" he screams this line ''in-tune'' to BF's verse and it has become subject to several animations and parodies.[[/labelnote]]
26	* Ritz vs. Tankman[[labelnote:Explanation]]During the time that leaks and rumors were floating around about Week 7 before its' release, there was much debate on who the opponent would be and everyone's eyes were on two candidates in particular: Ritz the Rat, the protagonist of Ninjamuffin's previous platformer game before FNF titled ''Ritz'', and Tankman, the mascot of Newgrounds and star of [=JohnnyUtah=]'s ''Tankmen'' series, where the character's real name is Sergeant John Captain. Many fans divided themselves into two sides, Team Ritz vs. Team Tankman, and many memes spawned of the two doing battle and being bitter rivals. Finally, after many weeks, the crew finally broke the silence and revealed the first song of the week, "Ugh", which featured [=JohnnyUtah=]'s vocals, and flat-out confirmed that Captain would be the Week 7 opponent. Ninjamuffin confirmed shortly after the song's release that Ritz will indeed still show up at a different point in the future. Furthermore, with multiple playable characters confirmed for the full version of the game, it's possible that Ritz vs. Tankman can become an official in-game reality.[[/labelnote]]
27	* Neil Cicierega and Monster are the same person.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Due to the similarities between the Monster and the Lemon Demon band, it's not uncommon to see people make jokes about the band's sole member secretly being the Monster himself.[[/labelnote]]
28	* Character gets mad and transforms/[[VideoGame/VSSky "obligatory last song transformation"]]/The [[VideoGame/VSWhitty Whitty]] Syndrome [[labelnote:Explanation]]A concept specific to modding. [[FollowTheLeader Following the success]] of ''VideoGame/VSWhitty'', mods where the final song undergoes a steep DifficultySpike, [[SequelEscalation dramatically raises the stakes]] and has the opponent [[OneWingedAngel change into a more powerful form]] or unleash a SuperpoweredEvilSide became very common. This became so prevalent that many people in the fandom have grown tired of it, and "Whitty Syndrome" became a pejorative term, despite Whitty himself doing it back when the idea was fresh; the concept wasn't even started by him, but rather Senpai and Spirit, who are official characters. Later mods, such as the aforementioned ''VideoGame/VSSky'' -- where the Girlfriend is thoroughly unimpressed by her would-be romantic rival's [[DarkerAndEdgier edgy]] metamorphosis -- will often subvert, avert, or lampshade the idea, with mods like ''VideoGame/LiterallyEveryFNFModEver'' even parodying the concept.[[/labelnote]]
29	* The second half of "Guns" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Week 7's second song "Guns" features an infamous part throughout the second half where Tankman goes on a fairly complicated pattern for ''32 beats'' in total, repeated 3 times, each time slightly different from the last, making it ThatOneAttack of the week. Thus, memes ran rampant about the sheer length of the section, usually featuring someone getting surprised (or bored, if the song has been played before) as it just goes on and on.[[/labelnote]]
30	** [[https://youtu.be/ZWIs_4k6ICE Tankman]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOYVlF0hW0Q ascends]][[labelnote:Explanation]]Relating to the same section of "Guns", some fans have begun a trend of having the section play on top of a character (not always Tankman himself) [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence ascending to a higher plane of existence]].[[/labelnote]]
31	* "Ugh" covers/"Ugh" except [x] sings it.[[labelnote:Explanation]]It's become fairly popular to mod other characters covering "Ugh", the first song of Week 7, as well as swapping in Tankman's "ugh" with a sound unique to the character (e.g. Sky's frustrated grunt, a low timpani hit for Ruv, or The Boyfriend's "yeah" he utters during "Spookeez").[[/labelnote]]
32	** [x] song but [y] character sings it. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The popularity of creating "Ugh" covers eventually expanded into having every song, in-game and fan-created alike, getting covered by every other character. It especially exploded after Youtuber [[https://youtube.com/c/Blantados21 Blantados]] figured out how to replicate every single "note" font used to create all the different "singing" voices, which he puts to good use with his "(chosen song) but every turn a different character sings" series, with numerous other Youtubers and even modders being inspired to recreate the singing styles of non-Boyfriend characters and have them sing other characters' songs.[[/labelnote]]
33	** Can he beat [[VideoGame/VSWhitty Whitty]] tho?[[labelnote:Explanation]]Given [[RecurringFanonCharacter just how popular he is]], it became common for Whitty covering the song, sometimes replacing Boyfriend as the one battling the original singer[[/labelnote]]
34	* Fuck Daddy Dearest, all my homies hate him[[labelnote:Explanation]]A popular Fanon idea is that Daddy Dearest is a monster who has relentlessly screwed over countless people, and they either resent him or plan to seek vengeance. One of the canon characters, Spirit, is a victim of his, and several popular mods run with the idea, like [[VideoGame/VsWhitty Whitty]], [[VideoGame/SmokeEmOutStruggle Garcello]], [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinENTITY A.G.O.T.I.]], and [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend Tabi]], to name a few. [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinHD The HD version]] even says [[BeenThereShapedHistory he learned how to rap]] with [[Music/TupacShakur Tupac]] and [[Music/TheNotoriousBig Biggie]]... [[BlackComedy before killing them both]]. [[/labelnote]]
35	* Louka Séguin[[labelnote:Explanation]]As with any fandom, the Friday Night Funkin' community (despite the game being incredibly adult) has a number of children that like to make [=TikToks=] about it. While most are simply seen as just kids having fun doing cringey things they'll grow out of, one kid named Louka Séguin has gained particular notoriety for doing [[NarmCharm surprisingly good]] imitations of mod character animations, such as [[VideoGame/TheTrickyMod Tricky]], [[VideoGame/VSTabiExBoyfriend Tabi]], and [[VideoGame/LiterallyEveryFNFModEver Bob]]. Many of his videos are posted on the community's [[Website/{{Reddit}} subreddit]], and the comments sections are almost always filled with praise for his acting quality and breaking of the old stereotype. While his [=TikTok=] has since been taken down due to being under 13, his videos (the Friday Night Funkin' ones among them) have also been posted to his [=YouTube=] channel [[https://youtube.com/channel/UCtbQXOrQUih6QXBUCsZIuHg right here]].[[/labelnote]]
36	* Monster is a [[PaedoHunt pedophile]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]While he wants to [[ToServeMan eat]] Boyfriend and Girlfriend (and while both of them [[OlderThanTheyLook are canonically 19]]), many consider Monster's unhealthy obsession for them more sexual than... [[UnusualEuphemism gastronomic]].[[/labelnote]]
37	* [x] got me like (Where X is the name of a song)[[labelnote:Explanation]]Originating from a video made by user [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lt_WrwdjdY Foekoe]] where the song "Ballistic" from the mod ''VS Whitty'' is sung by a repeated gif of an angry Asiatic yelling at the cat from the "cat go aah" meme. It resulted in montage videos where both vanilla and mod songs are layered with random gifs and clips of people or characters dancing or angrily speaking at the beat of the music. Examples are these two montages for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sJf_yi0GpI Guns]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVP5NfqpoFM Stress]][[/labelnote]]
38	* "omg is that [x] from friday night funkin?!?!?!?" / "I swear if I hear people saying [x] character is from FNF" (where X is a GameMod or {{Crossover}} character) [[labelnote:Explanation]]A way to bastardize the [[PeripheryDemographic children fanbase of the game and those unaware of 2000's internet media]], it began with young people commenting in the ''WebAnimation/SpookyMonth'' videos believing that Skid and Pump were original to ''Friday Night Funkin[='=]'', then it passed on to Tricky from ''WebAnimation/MadnessCombat'' after ''Videogame/TheTrickyMod'' was released, with people commenting on ''Madness Combat 11: Expurgation'' that his form present in the episode came from the mod's "Expurgation" song. Whenever a mod based on a much less popular and already-existing character is released (such VideoGame/AlienHominid or [[VideoGame/FancyPantsAdventures Fancy Pants]]), you will see people saying these two phrases, the former sometimes ''unironically.''[[/labelnote]]
39	* [x] song but funni [[labelnote:Explanation]]A video fad started by Youtuber [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCthe5_N1ur4q0Tf-jJvsYvA Tailys]], where a song is edited to be humorous. Common song edits include rearranging or repeating the notes, adding too many notes at once, and inserting dialogue in the songs, usually other memes or things related to ''VideoGame/AmongUs''.[[/labelnote]]
40	* On platforms like [=TikTok=], a common soundbite used features [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4xBiVmTMLQ Boyfriend singing a faster version of "Blammed" with many notes,]] after which Monster utters a confused "[[FlatWhat What?]]"
41	* [x] sounds familiar... (where X is the name of a song or GameMod) [[labelnote:Explanation]]A video type that is used to point out similarities in songs from mods or the game proper, including {{Suspiciously Similar Song}}s and songs that intentionally reuse a motif from another song.[[/labelnote]]
42	* Wanna work on my ''FNF'' Mod? [[labelnote:Explanation]]A line used to mock younger individuals who request mod creators to develop their own alleged mod for no effort on their part. Gets featured in ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinLullaby'' as one of the many possible lines that has to be typed out in "Monochrome".[[/labelnote]]
43	* It's not overcharted, you're just bad [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase often used in videos making fun of people defending mods with lots of notes in the form of videos with arrow spam taken up to eleven.[[/labelnote]]
44	* The [[VideoGame/PaRappaTheRapper PaRappa]] paradox.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Due to ''Friday Night Funkin[='=]'' taking major inspiration from the ''[=PaRappa=]'' series' call-and-response format to its music and gameplay, it's a popular idea among fans of both series that if Boyfriend and [=PaRappa=] were to get into a battle, neither would be able to do anything as they would endlessly wait for the other to start. With the release of the erect remixes, where Boyfriend freestyles rather than copying his opponent, there is also a growing group of people who believe that Boyfriend would be the one to start it.[[/labelnote]]
45	* fnf fans when the worst fucking song you've ever heard in your fucking life comes on[[labelnote:Explanation]]An offshoot from general "fandom generalizations/[media] fans when" memes, in which a dancing gif (usually ''Series/SesameStreet'' characters having a big party) is set to the worst available examples of SturgeonsLaw among fanmade FNF songs and encounters. Thanks to the fandom's size, enthusiasm and general youth and lack of experience with music theory, said examples are usually ''astoundingly'' bad.[[/labelnote]]
46	* Fake Saster thumbnails [[labelnote:Explanation]]Saster, a notable member of the community due to the number of high quality tracks he composes, has a very distinct, slightly strange style of thumbnails, leading to people creating thumbnails in his style, usually of hypothetical covers of preexisting songs or something absurd.[[/labelnote]]
47	* The Car Crash Script [[labelnote:Explanation]][[https://twitter.com/rareb134/status/1518035173396422657 A video made by an animator]] was turned into [[https://twitter.com/piggyfriend1792/status/1518125394422943745 a joke mod for the Psych Engine]] that causes the Opponent to go careening in the direction of the note they press, and emit the sound of a car being smashed into when they hit the boundary of the playfield. The ease of installation, compatibility with other mods and ability to edit it to make a subversion of the punchline meant it caught on pretty fast.[[/labelnote]]
48	* "chud" [[labelnote:Explanation]]A {{Mondegreen}} of one of Darnell's vocal samples, in which it sounds like he's saying "Chud". [[MemeAcknowledgement PhantomArcade would acknowledge this meme]] during a livestream of him reacting to fanart, even taking to calling him "Chud", which added more fuel to the fire for this meme.[[/labelnote]]
49	* WE ARE GETTING THIS GAME [[labelnote:Explanation]]After the game seemingly being in DevelopmentHell with radio silence from the developers, a sampler for the game's various "Erect" remixes went live on Twitter on March 20, 2024, showing that the game was in fact not dead. Naturally the fandom exploded in joy in response, with "WE ARE GETTING THIS GAME" being a highly trending response.[[/labelnote]]
50	** WE GOT THE GAME[[labelnote:Explanation]]The triumphant response from the fandom when the Erect update finally released on April 30th, 2024.[[/labelnote]]
51	* "Yo! Really think so?"[[labelnote:Explanation]]A line originating from a fake screenshot of [=WeekEnd=] 1 based on an uncolored cutscene teaser, attributed to Darnell. While the actual cutscene had no dialogue, his association with the line exploded after the level's release, as a sort of invoked BeamMeUpScotty.[[/labelnote]]
52	* Null Object Reference[[labelnote:Explanation]]The first release of the April 30th 2024 update tended to display a "Null object reference" error code during the transition between songs in the story mode, most importantly Weekend 1, before closing the program. It was fixed in a patch, but it lasted long enough to gain notoriety.[[/labelnote]]
