Eldritch Abomination: It's suggested that Briggs' willingness to pick up rotting meat without complaint is the result of having witnessed one of these.
Flat "What": When Bugsy says he created a Woodgator, when Quagmire gives the hint for the sewers' first exit, and when Briggs reveals that one direction in the secret passage beneath the Inn of Sin leads beneath the Mayor's statue. Also, he writes one into a screenshot◊.
"Help! Help! Trapped in Title Factory!": When noting that Edd the Head's subtitled dialogue has laughter when he doesn't laugh at all, Wields-Rulebook-Heavily concludes the subtitler had gone insane and makes the following comment:
I soon expect to see messages like "Help me I'm being held in Kent and forced to write inane dialogue."
Sanity Slippage: Culminating in him declaring that Limbo Of The Lost is to him what Moby-Dick was to Captain Ahab, after seeing the game's infamous ending.
This is madness, but not Sparta. This is the infinite depths of the black pit that Spartans kick you into if you bring them bad things.
Story Arc: Not intentionally (probably) on the creator's part, but WRH is able to identify each level with an ongoing theme: Level 1 was a game show, Level 2 was pinball, Level 3 was an insufferable college professor (although he initially says it's a sitcom, then a JRPG), Level 4 was a Christmas Special, and Level 5 was a band.
Take That!: After ranting about the Cutscene Power to the Max at the end of Chapter 3, and complaining that he doesn't want to have to wait for over 20 minutes to do something relevant:
Yeah, that's right. I just compared MGS4 to Limbo of the Lost.
Well, that's that. We're moving on away from Darkmere, still carrying a crapton of stuff in our pocket. I wonder how much of it will end up having a use? (the Bag of Spilling monster shows up) Oh, not this again.
