* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBuggMdUbog "Painis Cupcake"] <ref>A Soldier with a memorable style of movement (sliding around walls and floors while making shotgun sounds) who eats people, after delivering his catchphrase "I am Painis Cupcake. I will eat you" (mashed together from several different voice commands), and a [[Slasher Smile]]. Spawned from a [[YouTube]] video made using [[Garry's Mod]], quickly leading to several imitators and an even greater number of fan videos starring the "character". Seems to have created a pseudo-tradition of using music by Grant Kirkthorpe as background music for TF2/GMod videos.</ref>
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoT-u-R5Zgk "Vagineer"] <ref>When the Engineer's facial muscle sliders are set to a strange position, the Engineer's mouth twists into something resembling a vagina. In his earliest known appearance in a video by J16FOX, Vagineer became an [[Eldritch Abomination]], and according to [[Fanon]] has many strange powers such as shooting his own limbs off at people and vomiting bile. He also only speaks in reverse, with the exception of occasional growls, and the word "Gottam". Like Painis Cupcake, several imitations have been made using similar facial muscle slider abuse and reverse speech.</ref>
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HxlrXPSnjA Oddscout]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjwI1OmF5d4 It] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfFFiMbM85w Begins].
* I'M DED <ref>A Garry's Mod joke where characters tend to announce each other's deaths, mainly Scout citing that "I'm dead" or Heavy simply chiming in with "dead"</ref>
* (CLASS) IS (THING) <ref>A fad which starts with a class saying something along the lines of "(Class) is (thing)!" (achieved by using the "Spy!" command when pointed at a particular person) or by saying "I am (Thing)!". Then Video then goes on to show that class being the thing. Originaly starting with [[AR Master]] with "SCOUT IS DELICIOUS", it has since spawned many variations.</ref>
Line 36:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvdf5n-zI14 nope.avi] <ref>The Engineer running up to the camera, his helmet inexplicably levitating, him saying "Nope.", then telescoping his neck after it like a turtle. Has seen plenty of use on message boards as "nope.avi" or an ASCIII image whenever the context calls for someone answering in the negative. There's also "Yeah!", the opposite version where the Engineer's neck squashes downwards.</ref>
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hD-KZsmBl4&feature=watch_response_rev POO TIS POW!] <ref> A crossover meme with Skyrim. "Poo Tis Pow" is the Heavy's version of "Fus Ro Dah" using the Showdown taunt to fling enemies around. With proper timing, it is possible to pull this off in-game.</ref>
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_0USslBU2M The Gibus Engineer Wildlife Protectors]<ref>The G.E.W.P. started as a joke by SIN/NISLT, about protecting and helping out F2P Engineers from trolling, destructions of their family nests, and other forms of wildlife threats. Fans took this joke and expanded it to actually helping F2P gamers, including F2P Engi, made an intricate lore, were G.E.W.P was fighting against the Anti-G.E.W.P (aka the Anti-G.E.W.P), a [[Well Intentioned Extremist|well intentioned extremists]], who wants to protect other Badlands endangered species from the Gibus Engi, which they see as a habitat destroyer.</ref>
** G.E.W.P.'s rival, Anti-G.E.W.P (aka G.E.W.H (The Gibus Engineers Wildlife Hunters)).<ref> Who see Gibus Engineers as a very invasive species that are causing habit destruction of other species, like the Spycrab and Hoovies, so they work to preserve the environment. Though some guys in this group took a joke way to seriously, to mean [[Troll|trolling]] F2Ps, including aspiring Engineer mains, hating new players to the point of bullying, due to match imbalancing, and such (They have a bit of a legitimate reasons to hate F2Ps, it's due to rude and overtly arrogant F2P refusing to listen to sound criticism and advice). Also, they see GEWP as a bit hypocritical, at times, too coddling of F2Ps (which will hamper the newcomers' learning skills), and NISLT fans who are doing jack. </ref>
* Ricardo Hat <ref>The Dancing Doe Soldier misc was nicknamed as the "Ricardo Hat", since it's a reference to [[Ricardo Milos]], a Brazilian dancer. Since it contains a patterned bandana, a golden necklace, and a soul beard. </ref>
* O.W.N. and N.W.O. <ref>Based on some of the groups from LoneWolfHBS's [https://www.youtube.com/user/LoneWolfHBS/videos Cult of Personality series], but fans took it and [[Up To Eleven|ran wild with it]]. So, LWHBS had a "[[My God, What Have I Done?]]" moment when he saw the mess and put the series on hiatus, until the dust settles and only then will the remaining "CoP" series returns.</ref>

** "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebw6G6sIeHw Slap my ass!]"<ref>a doctored quote of the above</ref>
* "See? See!" <ref>Originated from the Demoman's response line, "See? I told ya they were a buncha wee lasses.", and resulted in the creation of a character, Seeman. Usually followed by the Soldier's version from "Now THAT is what I wanna see!", which has taken a similar life of its own as "Seeldier".</ref>
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSw9pAnMwZU The rare sighting of] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dyQlZziHnw the endangered Spy Crabs]<ref>An unintended glitch was used by those who play as Spy to walk similar to a crab, whilst gameplay. The Spy Crabs are part of the subspecies of friendlies, who don't fight.</ref>
** Eventually, became an actual taunt, [https://valvestore.forfansbyfans.com/spycrab-plush-8356.html a plushy], and [https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Spycrab cosmetic] for the Spy.
* Friendlies.<ref>Friendlies refuses to fight in rounds, they just spend their time "goofing up", taunting, reacting with voice commands, and taunting. Though some will [[Beware the Nice Ones| fight for self-defense]] or accept being killed off by foes.</ref>
* The Observer (aka The Watcher) just [https://i.redd.it/jdf61mj2dpe31.png monitors and observes].<ref>The Observer/Watcher, are Spy player(s), who uses the Shutterbug, Upgrade, camera beard, and just watches the game roll by. They are a new type of friendlies.</ref>
* "Updated the localization files."<ref>It seems that outside of adding hats, cosmetics, and minor updates, the only huge thing that regularly gets updated are the localization files...This ascended into meme status.</ref>
