Latest revision as of 16:24, 8 December 2019
- How apathetic can Ryney be? How intelligent can the magical bears riding velociraptors be? How long can this series keep having a coherent plot in spit of those things?
- Monty Oum's videos, including Haloid and the Dead Fantasy series: How many different video game characters can we stick in this Crisis Crossover? How insanely over-the-top can the fights get? What gigantic building will the fighters destroy next? And most importantly, how much Fan Service can he stick in there?
- And now that he works on Red vs. Blue, how much more epic can the next fight scene be? How much crazier will Tex's methods of punching people in the face get? How many more times will Grif get hit in the balls? How many different ways can we screw up Church's life this week?
- The Angry Video Game Nerd. Many things, but mostly: how many times can he cram the word fuck into a 15-minute video? Also, how bad will the next game to be reviewed suck? How pissed off can he get? How many creative ways to destroy games can he come up with?
- The goal of My Opinions On Every Pokémon Ever is to write opinions about every single Pokémon that stretch several paragraphs.
- How long can two people on Livejournal stretch "some people find improper grammar sexy" and continue coming up with things like "No gerunds before marriage. I'm still a lady"?
- Time Cube: How much more insane can this get? How many more big bold letters can be fit on this page? How loud can you imagine him shouting this? Oh God! There's a second page of this?
- This video of "Top 60 Ghetto Names". You may have to pause on "Watermelondrea" due to intensive laughter. The last one is... Courtney.
- BriTANick sketches. Each sketch generally starting off somewhere normal and increasing in absurdity until reality pretty much collapses. This sketch distills the concept into two people talking - Brian wants to know what a particular line from Twelfth Night is, and Nick's incorrect answers go from 'wrong part of the play' to 'wrong play' to 'wrong author' to 'frying pan' all the way up to quoting a section of a suicide note penned by Brian's dead ex-girlfriend.
- How many pop culture references can you cramp together in a single joke? Azumanga Cowbell Hero [1]
- How much more of an offensive, jerkass-ish douchebag of an asshole can Captain Hammer be?
- Even worse. During the filming, Nathan Fillion was told for the first time in his life this line:
 |
You are not cheesy enough. |
 |
- Welcome to "Atop the Fourth Wall"... and yes, Virginia, there IS a "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" comic.
- How incredibly esoteric, obscure a character can Akinator guess next?
- Just how unprepared can Mark be?
- How many times can the YouTube account for Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series get cancelled and reinstated? It's happened seven times now.
- EPICMEALTIME boils down to this trope applied to food. To wit: their early endeavour of putting five different kinds of bird meat in a pig, and a few episodes later they broke the 100,000-calorie barrier.
- Just how stupid can the people quoted on FSTDT get? Refer to the site's page for more information.
- Warriors of Genesis: Everyone in this whacked-out world is a fan of this trope, it actually makes the viewers remember something else.
