Line 108:
* [[Ship Mates]]: In-universe example--Ellis makes a suggestion to Rochelle that her and Francis should double date with him and Zoey.
* [[Shipper on Deck]]: Rochelle and Coach don't mind pushing Ellis towards Zoey. [[Jerkass|Nick... not so much.]]
* [[The Smurfette Principle]]: Each group of survivors only has one female.
* [[Stand Alone Episode]]: Averted. The campaigns lead directly into each other.
* [[Suspiciously Apropos Music]]: In "The Passing", you can play a song about leaving someone (by the Midnight Riders) near a Witch who was infected at a wedding.
Line 114 ⟶ 115:
{{quote| "A little hand sanitizer and we wouldn't be in this mess."<br />
"A germ just wiped out the world." }}
* [[The Smurfette Principle]]: Each group of survivors only has one female.
* [[The Tetris Effect]]: Play the game for a good hour or so. Close your eyes. See the zombie horde rushing towards you?

Line 167:
* [[Take That]]: In the 2nd map of [[The Passing]], when approaching the stairwell leading into the sewers, there's a sign that says the rest of the underground tour will be finished in the year 2010. Rochelle or Coach may quip about how the first phase is nowhere near finished and wonder how there can be a phase 2 already. This is a jab at the fan base that cried out how ''[[Left 4 Dead]]'' wasn't finished when ''Left 4 Dead 2'' was announced.
* [[The Virus]]: If you're <s>un</s>lucky enough, you turn into a constantly crying, always-guilty Witch, a head humping horny midget, an acid spitting hag, a giant armed freak, an exploding fatass, get Gene Simmon's tongue, become a flying Parkour expert or turn into the [[Incredible Hulk|Hulk]].
* [[Urban Legend of Zelda]]: A rumor was immediately born after The Passing was released and was debunked just as quickly. <ref> you could bring Bill back to life with the defibrillator, which was quickly proven false since his body does not have a red outline when you hold out the item and his body is propped up against the generator, which wouldn't play the defib animations correctly since all survivors that die always have a set pose for this. Valve caught on to this, though; a few patches after ''The Passing'' came out, they added a unique message for people trying to defib Bill.</ref>
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]: Crescendo Events are triggered by seemingly harmless everyday actions, such as calling an elevator, or opening a fire door. The problem is, every door and piece of machinery in Left 4 Dead's universe is [[Loud of War|ridiculously loud]]. While you wait for the slowest elevator in the history of creation, you must fight off wave after wave of Infected aggressors, who have declared war on [[And Your Little Dog, Too|you, and your noisy machines too!]]
