'''Daniel''' (chanting): We love chicks with dicks! }}
* [[Ambiguous Gender]]: The so-called "gay writer" (a name given to the writer by Daniel in the skit where his writers were given the chance to throw a football at him to try to hit him) in season one and two; it didn't help that said writer frequently wore outfits that made the issue less than clear. The season three premier finally gave viewers a shot of him that made it clear he was a man in the "[https://web.archive.org/web/20110119070339/http://www.comedycentral.com/tosh.0/2011/01/12/angry-birds-in-real-life/ Angry Birds In Real Life]" skit (his decision to wear a more typically masculine outfit certainly helped), and was also the episode where it was revealed that his name is "Nick", putting the matter to rest.
* [[Ambiguously Gay]]: Daniel himself, though it is by his own doing. Lampshaded when, after filming a skit with Tommy Lee in which Daniel wore a bra, Daniel showed an e-mail he received from Lee's assistant, asking, "With all due respect, Tommy would like to know, is Daniel gay or straight?" Daniel replied, "With all due respect, Tommy Lee, I prefer to keep it a mystery; I don't want to be [[Typecasting|type-cast]] as a "straight"." Later in the episode, he danced in a rather suggestive way during the web remix of "What What in the Butt" with duct tape over his mouth and "NO H8" written on his cheek, eventually dancing ''quite'' close to [[Camp Gay|Samwell]] at the end of the song. After the segment was over, he said, "There's your answer, Tommy Lee."
* [[Americans Hate Soccer]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20110317205942/http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/81034299/ In one particular instance], he went on a particularly long-winded tirade regarding the sport.
* [[Aside Glance]]: Daniel has a distinctive look he gives the camera any time he makes a joke that he knows is a bit too nonsensical or unbelievable compared to the rest of his humor, such as the above mentioned joke about being type-cast as a "straight".
* [[The Atoner]]: The premise behind the Web Redemption segment. If they simply did something embarrassing, the show will usually show them doing it again, [[Took a Level in Badass|but make it look cooler]] (such as the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_ekugPKqFw Lightning Bolt LARPer], whose redemption was a choreographed fight sequence that ended with him [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|shooting CGI lightning out of his arms]]).
Line 64:
* [[Don't Try This At Home]]: Frequently played with, but usually averted; Daniel frequently encourages viewers to send in videos of themselves doing things he does during the show.
** Exaggerated when Daniel plays "Guess What Happens Next" with a video of an Asian kid who {{spoiler|lights his crotch on fire}}; he spends about a minute driving home the point that viewer should not try this at home.
** Zig Zagged with "[https://web.archive.org/web/20110120031542/http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=266264&title=surprise-trust-falls Surprise Trust Falls]". Subverted when Daniel follows his surprise trust falls by saying, "Feel free to send us your own surprise trust falls to our website, and be careful." Doubly subverted when Daniel is "forced" to ask people to stop doing them after people start sending in [https://web.archive.org/web/20101225093052/http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=267720&title=viewer-surprise-trust-falls their own videos]. Triply subverted when, after showing the surprise trust falls already sent in, Daniel says, "Screw it, keep sending them in!"
** Subverted in the episode where he makes a human chain with a bunch of other people and has one end tazed. He shows clips of people around the office practicing with an electric fence wire on "Goat" strength, then remarked that nobody wanted to try "Bear" strength. He then tells the audience to not send him videos of them grabbing electric fence wires... unless its at "Bear" strength.
* [[Double Standard Rape (Male on Male)]]: Antoine Dodson's web redemption involved building an [[Acme Products|Acme Rapist Trap]] and using Daniel (in pink hotpants) as bait. The rapist they caught? [[Ripped from the Headlines|Ben Roethlisberger]].
Line 73:
{{quote|"Because when I think of Paris, I think of Kuntz."}}
** The season 3 premire. One of the promos for it had Tosh ''out right declaring'' it was messed up.
* [[Gone Horribly Right]]: Daniel noted that his Wikipedia page seems to be lacking, so he encouraged his fans to edit and add whatever they'd like. Soon after, [https://web.archive.org/web/20110113033414/http://www.comedycentral.com/tosh.0/2010/02/03/your-wikipedia-entries/ the page was locked due to vandalism].
* [[A Good Name for a Rock Band]]: "'Dick Vomit' is not good live. [[[Beat]]] [[Sincerity Mode|That's their name!]] It's 'Dick Vomit'."
* [[Groin Attack]]: Frequently seen on the show. Inverted with the "Game Ovaries" segment, in which Daniel hoped to "introduce a new genre of video to the internet", i.e. the female groin attack.
Line 140:
*** When yet another kid nearly kills himself on a skateboard:
{{quote|Everyone from ''Jackass'' is dying!}}
* [[Villainous Crossdresser]]: The guy from the "Things You Shouldn't Run Into a Room and Yell" [https://web.archive.org/web/20110117072333/http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=358616&title=things-you-should-never-run viewer response video] who walks into a room in a dress and says, {{spoiler|"Let's not turn this rape into a murder."}}
* [[Vomit Indiscretion Shot]]: Puke is practically a supporting cast member.
* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: Daniel sports thigh-high socks and short-shorts when interviewing the guy from Evolution Of Dance.
