* [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 [[
* [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]. [[hottip:Explanation: Oddscout is another [[Eldritch Abomination]], inspired by [[The Slender Man Mythos|the Slender Man]].
* 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>
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B36BXid7iQ0 "The Vicious Cycle of ____"] [[hottip:Explanation:A popular fad started by Youtube user Raikujo, featuring lightning-fast killings of classes, usually in succession, set to "Bãtutã Din Moldova" from ''Rabbids Go Home''. Each one starts with a character running in, turning their head to see someone, then after the fanfare of the song begins, the mayhem starts. Each ends with the original character respawning. The unique feature of each video is the fact that it loops, caused by a glitch in [[
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfCiOzL7cYs&t=6m57s '''UNLIMITED POWER!!!!'''] <ref>Popular meme of a player named Chozo who goes on a hilarious cursing rage allowing many memes such as the one above. The rage-induced player is often mentioned in TF2 message boards and forums whenever someone mentions the best player of all time.</ref>
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuuwUwwv76o "____ in a Nutshell"] [[hottip:Explanation:An older fad started by NearElite. Each video basically sums up each map in under a minute. Each video is set to the music "Intruder Alert." Usually, the following is involved: ridiculous amounts of sentries, utter annihilation of the other team at chokepoints, and excessive amounts of Snipers. A lot of the time, the Snipers are stabbed by Spies that appear behind them, set to [[Playing the Heart Strings|sad music.]]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRt39K-Q0Q4 The HWM models.] <ref>The HWM stands for "hard-ware morph", and in [[
* [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>
Line 41:
** Pootis<ref>'''Put dis'''penser here! --Heavy</ref>
** Gottam<ref>"'''Gotta M'''ove that gear up!" --Engineer</ref>
** Painis<ref>"'''Pain is''' weakness leaving the body!" --Soldier; used in a similar context as "Pingas" from [[
* NEED A DISPENSAH HEAH! NEED A DISPENSAH HEAH! [[Most Annoying Sound|NEED A DISPENSAH HEAH! NEED A DISPENSAH HEAH!]] [[Overly Long Gag|NEED A DISPENSAH HEAH! NEED A DISPENSAH HEAH!]] <ref>One of the Scout's lines is "Need a dispenser here". Not only is this an annoying command, especially for Engineers, it is augmented by the Scout's Brooklyn slur. Users have taken to spamming this command to annoy friendly Engineers, and numerous videos, parodies, and references appears in many other videos.</ref>
* BONK! <ref>One of the sounds a Scout makes when scoring a melee kill. Numerous remixes involving repeated bonks can be found on [[YouTube]].</ref>
Line 51:
* TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT <ref>Started primarily on 4chan in anticipation for the eventual "Engineer Update", who was the last of nine classes to get any new weapons. Any time a minor update to TF2 would occur in the coming weeks, people would often quote the above line.</ref>
* "Can't [[Critical Hit|crit]], so it's balanced." <ref>Used to defend a fanmade weapon. Now it's used sarcastically to point out the unbalanced nature of other fanmade weapons.</ref>
* Enjoy your AIDS! <ref>"AIDS" is the [[Fan Nickname]] for the Medic's virus attack in ''[[
* [http://i.imgur.com/f05xm.jpg STOUT SHAKO FOR 2 REFINED] [[hottip:Explanation:A budding joke on the ''Team Fortress 2'' section of the Steam User's Forum. Used to note how the game is, in the opinion of several people, ruined by promotional items, hats, trading, and/or paint. However, "Demopan", as the Demoman in the picture has been dubbed, has taken a turn for the [[Memetic Badass|Badass.]]
* '''RAWKET LAWNCHAIR''' [[hottip:Explanation:A crossover meme with ''[[Metal Slug]]'', referring to Soldier's primary weapons, which are all Rocket Launchers. Mostly brought up when said Rocket Launcher rolls a critical hit, [[One-Hit Kill|which only Heavy can survive without healing buffs.]]
* shoot jump crate, shoot jump crate, shoot jump spy crate. <ref>A line of [[Engrish]] on Team Fortress 2's section in Steam Forums that gained memetic quality.</ref>
* "This is Scout! Rainbows make me cry!" [[hottip:Explanation:The Spy mocking the Scout in one of his domination lines. Afterwards, there are quite a few videos and images that show, or imply, the Scout crying at the sight of a rainbow (and [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
* Those people? They were F2P. <ref>Whenever a poorly-skilled enemy team is seen in a YouTube video, most players will claim that they were made up of poorly-skilled newcomers who joined when the game became free to play, or "F2P" for short.</ref>
* ''Hat Fortress 2''. <ref>The game has '''a lot''' of hats, and the purchase and trading of hats became an enormous part of the community, to the point where nearly any mention of hats prompts a ''TF2'' joke. Reddit likes to refer to the game as a "war-themed hat simulator".</ref>
** According to fans, the ''TF2'' dev team is obsessed with hats and does nothing else but work on hats all day. This has become an [[Ascended Meme]], as even the developers discuss their obsession. Shown [http://artpass.tf2maps.net/ in this comic] and on [http://tf2.com/post.php?id=3692&p=2 this blog post.] They were also incredulous that ''[[
{{quote| It's pretty much better than ''TF2'' in every possible way now. Except for the total lack of hats. Guess we know who the real pros are around here.}}
:: It has become such an [[Ascended Meme]] that, on certain pages of the offical ''TF2'' website, the game is described as a "War-themed hat simulator".
