▲{{quote box| Normal day with Red and Blue.}} [[Dick Figures]] is a web series from the mind of [[Mondo Media]]. It centers around the [[Blatant Lies|normal daily lives]] of two stick figures, Red and Blue.
A movie, thanks to fan donations, saw the light in July 17th, 2012.
Season 1 can be seen online on the Mondo Media [[YouTube]] channel [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbrJEZUmJviM8YTAWDmJNj5S7H1WvhshS here], or you can check out the series webpage on the Mondo Media website [https://mondomedia.com/channel/DickFigures here].
{{tropelist}}
* [[Abhorrent Admirer]]: Purple.
* [[Aerith and Bob]]: Chad, Jason (Trollzor) and Stacy are the only characters with normal names.
Line 15 ⟶ 14:
* [[The Casanova]]: Red- in the most [[Refuge in Audacity|hilariously offensive]] way possible. His "charms" don't always work though, specifically when he's too drunk to form coherent advances.
* [[Comedic Sociopath]]: Yes.
* [[Flanderization]]: Red went from a mild [[Jerkass]] [[Cloudcuckoolander]] to an [[Ax Crazy]] psycho over the course of the series.
* [[Gag Boobs]]: All skinny girls have big [[Gainaxing|bouncy]] boobs. The one fat girl, Purple, has small saggy boobs.
** Mama's boobs are huuuuuge. Enough said.
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: Red and Blue are a [[Vitriolic Best Buds|dysfuntional]] example.
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Red, for all his jerkishness and psychopathy, does care for Blue as a friend.
* [[Official Couple]]: Blue and Pink. Red and Stacy also fit this trope {{spoiler|until they break up in the finale. Then it switches to Red and Purple.}}
* [[One Steve Limit]]: Stacy probably got her name because there's already a character named Purple.
* [[Rapid
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Red and Blue, of course. Red is a crazy, chaos-creating, fun guy who's kind of a jerk. Blue is an uptight, irritable, usually serious guy who makes frequent [[Face Palm|facepalms]] due to Red's shenanigans.
** Likewise, Stacy is the red to Pink's blue.
* [[Rule of Cool]]
Line 28 ⟶ 31:
=== Episodes of this series provide examples of: ===
* [[Aristocrats Are Evil]]: Earl Grey.
* [[All Just a Dream]]: In "OMG", Blue goes through several of these, complete with [[Shout
* [[
** Hell, the bee itself talks like this.
* [[A Worldwide Punomenon]]:
{{quote|
Red: "I just got my ''dick'' washed by sorority girls! It's the '''breast.'''" }}
** And again, immediately afterwards:
{{quote|
* [[Bad Date]]: Blue has one in "Trouble Date," because Red shows up with HIS date and ruins Blue's.
* [[Bavarian Fire Drill]]: We're Cops!
* [[Big Eater]]: Red decides to go back in time solely because he wants eat ''an entire dinosaur''.
* [[Brainless Beauty]]: Actually ''subverted'' with [[Valley Girl|Stacy]]. In "Modern Flame War 3", it's revealed she works as an internet technician.
* [[Broken Aesop]]:
{{quote|
Blue: "What? It's the middle of Sum[[Running Gag|*cuttooutro*]]" }}
** Almost the entire point of "Pussy Magnet"
* [[Brown Note]]: Kitty Amazing is so adorable he melts the hearts of all who look at him... ''literally''. It's not clear why Red is immune, though.
** Possibly from all the alcohol he drinks. Am I right, fellas?
* [[Check, Please!]]: Blue does this in "Trouble Date".
* [[Bullet Time]]: Used in "Modern Flame War 3"
* [[Chainsaw Good]]: In "Zombies and Shotguns".
* [[Continuity Nod]]: Kitty Amazing's petrified body is found behind the fridge in "Sex Marks the Spot".
** Pink remarks in "Role Playas" that [[Dungeons
** In "Pleasure Cruise", the villain who tries to sink the [[Meaningful Name|H.M.S. Tragedy]] is {{spoiler|Earl Grey's last surving butler}}.
** In "Losing Streakers", Red accidentally swallows ''another'' bee and starts taking in [[
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: Red is a Kung-Fu winner.
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: After Trollzor was humiliated in "Y U So Meme?", he teams up with Red and Blue to save the internet in "Modern Flame War 3".
* [[Dull Surprise]]: Blue.
{{quote|
"Oh man I know, ''Fang Angels'' is soooo goood..." }}
* [[Dumbass Has a Point]]: Red in "We're Cops!"
{{quote|
'''Blue''': Wow. You actually have a pretty good point there. }}
** Granted, this wouldn't pan out in reality, but in the Dick Figures world, it seems to work out quite well.
* [[Drink Order]]: Pina Coladas pop up quite a bit.
* [[Enhance Button]]: Red gets Blue to enhance a large black pixel into a perfect image of Trollzor's location in "Y U So Meme?"
* [[Erotic Eating]]: Red and Stacy attempt this in "Trouble Date".
* [[Fail O'Suckyname]]: The Bloser.
* [[Feigning Intelligence]]: Blue in "Trouble Date", though it's more like Feigning Worldliness. He tries to invoke [[Everything Sounds Sexier in French]] and seemingly fails miserably- but Pink falls for it anyway. Happens again in "Kung Fu Winners" with some [[Gratuitous Foreign Language|Gratuitous Chinese.]]
* [[Freaky Friday Flip]]: [[Exactly What It Says
* [[Funbag Airbag]]: Blue lands his face in Pink's chest in "Flame War", probably on purpose.
* [[Freeze
* [[Gasshole]]: Red, at the end of "A Bee or Something", in "Attack of the Pwns" [[Running Gag|and again]] in the beginning of "Losing Streakers".
** And near the beginning of "Taco Tuesday".
* [[High
** Whilst ''[[Crazy Awesome|driving,]]'' no less. [[Drives Like Crazy|Not well, but...]]
* [[Hollywood
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: Earl Gray fights with cups of tea and a diamond-encrusted monocle.
** In "Zombies and Shotguns", Red(unintentionally) kills a zombie with a ''bag of chips''.
Line 80 ⟶ 83:
* [[Jerkass Gods]]: A light example in "[[Incredibly Lame Pun|Zeusbag]]"
* [[Kamehame Hadoken]]: Red wins the fight in "Kung Fu Winner" using this.
* [[Kill It
* [[Literal Genie]]: The "Butt Genie".
* [[Leet Lingo]]: Trollzor:
{{quote|
* [[Mind Screw]]: Episode 6. It starts out with an ''[[Inception]]'' parody, which is amazingly ''[[Up to Eleven|the easiest part to follow]]''.
* [[Nice Hat]]: Lord Tourettes' cone hat. It's also a [[Hat of Power]]: losing it makes him incapable of cursing, as seen in "Lord Tourettes", where it turns a [[Mall Santa]] into a rather [[Bad Santa]].
* [[Nigh Invulnerable]]: A bag of chips in "Zombies & Shotguns." Makes about as much sense in context.
* [[Pixellation]]: In "Fang Angels" you can see Pink's breasts blurred out for a millisecond, even though you could see uncensored breasts in the previous episode. This is either because Pink had actual areola, while the earlier girl had just dots, or it's [[Rule of Funny|just a joke]].
* [[Pre
{{quote|
'''Red/Batman''': They go to ''prism''! }}
** Red to the owner of the Golden Lotus Dragon.

** Red to a T-Rex:

* [[Precision F
** [[Cluster F
* [[Phlebotinum Killed the Dinosaurs]]: {{spoiler|Red exterminated them with ray guns before the regularly-scheduled [[Colony Drop|meteor]] had a chance to.}}
* [[Pink Girl, Blue Boy]]: Pink and Blue, respectively.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: In a sense. Lord Tourettes gets these whenever his [[Hollywood
* [[Running Gag]]: Every episode ends with a cut to the outro sequence in the middle of a sentence.
** Additionally, Red can usually be spied levitating off the ground at least once an episode.
* [[Saying Sound Effects Out Loud]]: Red throughout "Flame War." He even says the [[Announcer Chatter]]!
* [[Serious Business]] : "Attack of the Pwns", in which Blue and Red get into an epic space battle over {{spoiler|the last frozen burrito in the fridge.}}
* [[Shout
** "Sex Marks The Spot" Has a few to ''[[
** "Terminate-Her" is one to the Terminator films. You can also see Purple dress up as a [[Companion Cube]].
** The time machine in "Steakosaurus" has a [[Back to The Future|Flux Capacitor]] right in the middle of everything.
* [[Surprisingly Happy Ending]]: More like "Surprisingly Heartwarming Ending". After a whole series full of crazy, surrealist shenanigans, the [[Series Finale]] ends with {{spoiler|Blue and Pink getting married and having three kids together. Red and Stacy break up, but Red stops drinking and ends up marrying Purple, the girl he derided during the entire series and who becomes a normal stick figure. Stacy, for her part, ends up finishing her medicine career, and ends up delivering Red and Blue's daughters, who are eventually shown to have a promising friendship like their fathers'. The series ends with Red and Blue meeting again as grown men and head off to watch cartoons together, just like the good ol' days.}}
* [[Take That]]: "Fang Angels" is a not-too-subtle one at [[Twilight]]. "Modern Flame War 3" is an even less one to [[Modern Warfare]].
* [[Testosterone Poisoning]]: Red dips into this from time to time, the crowning example being "Modern Flame War 3", where he gets over a fence topped with barbed wire by ''eating'' the barbed wire.
{{quote|
** "Real Dudes Bros Night Man" is all about this.
* [[Title Drop]]: Done cleverly in Pussy Magnet. Just before the cutoff, Lord Tourrettes gives the advice, "All you really need is a big DICK-". In the [[Stinger]], Blue replies "Figures."
