* [[Unstoppable Rage]]: Double subverted in his review of ''[[Resident Evil Gun Survivor|Resident Evil Survivor]]'', where he admits that he's not good at pretending to be angry, and instead tries using all his creativity to come up with the perfect metaphor for the game's numerous plot holes. {{spoiler|When all he can come up with is a pair of colliding trains, he flies into nerd rage anyway.}}
