  • Anvilicious: In season 4 and 5, Mathieu became way more preachy.
  • Broken Base: Since the revelation of some of Matthieu's rather... Dubious actions (filming the underwear of a teenage girl when he was 24) and him downright lying about another Youtuber being fascist (before said Youtuber exposed him), his popularity spiralled downwards.
  • Crazy Is Cool: The Hippie sometimes displays very uexpected abilities, possibly because of how high he is, or as a form of Achievements in Ignorance. Or both.
    Mathieu: (pointing a laser at the moon) Here, look, I'm pointing this thing up there, go fetch.
    Hippie: Here we go, dude! (takes off like a rocket)
  • Crosses the Line Twice: The Boss persona often fits this trope.
    Boss: "I killed ten children with compassion and love".
  • Growing the Beard: Season 2 marks is the point when Mathieu found the definitive formula of his show. Coincidently, it's also when he started showing facial hair.
  • Harsher in Hindsight:
    • In Episode 89, Mathieu makes a joke about people dying at the Bataclan theatre due to cars inexplicably falling from the sky and exploding. A year after the episode was released, the November 2015 Paris attacks happened, in which 89 people were killed at the very same theatre.
    • Episode 101, uploaded on November 13, 2015, parodied a scene from a TV show in which a character jumped out of a window, by adding an "allahu akbar" voice clip and a fake explosion. Later that day, over 100 people were killed in the aforementioned Paris attacks, which involved suicide bombers.
  • The Scrappy: Mathieu himself wasn't very happy with the Dumb Blonde persona. This is why she disappeared in the fourth season.
