  • Actor Allusion: Slowbeef and Diabetus often make comments based upon Retsupurae.
    • When Slowbeef finally took the time to play Metroid Prime 2 and got to Quadraxis, the very first thing to spring to his mind was SNES9X.
    • In this video from that very same LP, Diabetus mentions "light beam aquaired."
      • Similarly, Diabetus also named Part 15 of his Metroid Fusion LP DIFFUSION AQAired.'
      • Slowbeef also mentions at one point that every other Metroid flash game he has seen on Newgrounds has the word "acquired" misspelled.
    • In this video, while discussing combination weapons from Dead Rising 2, guest Toffile asks if slowbeef ever combined the banana, knife, and rope.
    • During one part of their Dead to Rights: Retribution Let's Play, they talk about the critical reviews that the game received.
      Diabetus: A 7/10 rating usually means the game is fucking awful.
    • In one part of the Metroid Fusion LP, slowbeef mentions the folly of looking up 'Metroid' on Newgrounds.
    • In his Let's Play of the NES version of The Immortal, Slowbeef said "WHOOPS!" loudly when he kept fucking up a spell.
    • When discussing Let's Players becoming popular through websites other than Something Awful, Slowbeef mentions BillyMC.com.
    • In the Dead to Rights Let's Play, when trying to think of British phrases, Diabetus mentions "Teleport!"
    • Non-Retsupurae example: when they discover that one of Corruption's enemies is called a Snatcher, they run with it.
  • Creator Backlash: He feels this way about his Super Metroid LP.
    • Also his Dead To Rights LP, to a lesser extent (he feels that the commentary was fine, but wishes he could have improved the video quality).
  • Playful Hacker: A coder by trade, he's the guy who got the English Fan Translation of Policenauts out of years of Development Hell in early 2008, finally leading to its long-awaited release in August 2009.note 
  • What Could Have Been: He originally planned for BillyMC to guest in a Prime video, but couldn't get in touch with him.
