Line 11:
* Adorkable: "Everyday Normal Guy".
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: In the ''Mysteries of the Universe'' video:
{{quote| "Why does war exist? Why do we hate, why do we keep killing each other and who keeps making these [[Martin Lawrence]] movies? ''[[Big
* [[Artistic License History]]: MC Historical Inaccuracy in WTF Collective 2.
* [[Artistic License Geography]]: A lot in "Very Super Famous", for example:
{{quote| [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff|All the Mexicans love me]] down in the South America<br />
From Colombia to Brazil all the way to Algeria }}
* [[Audience Participation Song]]: At the end of his shows, he keeps [[Squick|the chorus]] to [[Exactly What It Says
* [[Back From the Dead]]: {{spoiler|Zombie Chorus Guy in WTF Collective 3.}}
* [[Beige Prose]]: The "Show Me Your Genitals" trilogy is built around this trope.
Line 27:
** Turned [[Up to Eleven]] in "Very Super Famous"
* [[The Cameo]]: MC Vagina can be spotted in the crowd shots during "Pop Song".
* [[Canada, Eh?]]: Jon Lajoie is Canadian, and while he himself is not that stereotypical, there is [[Exactly What It Says
* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: Most apparent in "F**k Everything". Which drops the F-bomb 62 times from start to finish.
{{quote| Fuck you! Fuck me! Fuck the sky! Fuck trees! Fuck the sun, I don't need heat or vitamin D!}}
Line 33:
* [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]: While pretty much all of his songs are NSFW, there is one song that is kid-friendly. "Stay At Home Dad". [[Sweet Dreams Fuel|A song about him taking care of his infant son]]. [[Squee|D'AWWWWWWWWWW]].
** And also [[Crowning Moment of Funny|hilarious]] because musically it's a [[Rage Against the Machine]] parody.
* [[A Date
* [[Dead Baby Comedy]]: The foundation of his humor, along with [[Self-Deprecation]]. '''Nothing''' is off-limits. Good examples are probably "Cold-Blooded X-Mas," "Mel Gibson Love Song," and "Rapist Glasses"/"Pedophile Beards."
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: During the breaks between songs in his live performances, and his non-musical [[YouTube]] sketches. But even some of his songs are bitingly sarcastic and incredibly cynical (see "Pop Song" and "Radio-Friendly Song").
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: {{spoiler|Chorus Guy in WTF Collective 2}}
* [[Dude, Not Funny]]: An "in-universe"- example He [[Lampshade Hanging|calls himself out in the lyrics]] to the final chapter of the "Show Me Your Genitals" trilogy, "I Kill People," after making an Anne Frank joke. Also used by [[Too Soon|MC Inappropriate Rhymes in WTF Collective 2]] and [[Lampshaded]] again by [[Exactly What It Says
* [[Dude Not Ironic]]: ''WTF Collective'' features MC Doesn't Know What Irony Is. In either context we hear him use the word, it's not clear exactly what he thinks it means -- the point is, he doesn't get it.
* [[Dull Surprise]]: MC Vagina.
* [[Erudite Stoner]]: "We don't have racism in Canada. We have...weed."
* [[Exactly What It Says
* [[Explain, Explain, Oh Crap]]: Courtesy of [[Meaningful Name|MC Uses Time Machines Irresponsibly]]:
{{quote| Then I traveled in time to the night I was conceived<br />
Line 64:
** "Fame is like a tree. It helps you get pussy."
* [[Mind Screw]]: Visit his website. [http://www.jonlajoie.com/ We DARE You]. And in his commercial for hands.
* [[Overshadowed
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: Most of the WTF Collective members are based on famous rappers, at least in their voices and delivery. For instance, MC Fatigue is Sean Paul and MC Final Verse is 50 Cent.
** Also "Pop Song" has some the typical [[Boy Band]] stereotypes, such as the good looking lead singer, and the effeminate one that is probably gay.
Line 85:
* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: MC Knows Too Many Facts About Bees ends his verse with "Just 'cause I know a lot about bees doesn't mean that I'm gay." As it turns out, {{spoiler|he's also MC In the Closet Homosexual.}}
* [[Talking to Himself]]: Every member of the WTF Collective is played by Jon.
* [[Three Chords and
* [[Three Minutes of Writhing]]: The video for "Pop Song".
* [[Trope Name]]: "Everyday Normal Guy," "Pop Song," "Radio-Friendly Song."
