Know your Giant Bomb memes and history, son, or get bopped.
Also, although I've been a member for a stupidly long time, there's no possible way of me knowing or remembering all of these. Please feel free to contribute in the comments. Links to specific videos or Bombcasts would be great, but not necessary. Togetherness!
All Youtube links are temporary and will be replaced or added to as we find the original sources. Cool? Cool.
I'm also interested in community created content that's relevant to Giant Bomb, such as GB music mixes or the like. This is not a call for your YT channel doing Let's Plays. I'm only interested in stuff pertaining directly to Giant Bomb.
I've also explained this in the comments, but I'll put it here - no, I won't be adding the "Brad is leaving" "joke." That shit always leads to more trouble than it's worth, causes a lot of confused questions, and we're cutting out its usage. I also won't be putting in any memes that directly or indirectly jab at staff or users. No "Brad is bad at games" stuff, for example.

"Durgers." Probably the first GB meme I can remember. The meme had its origins in a Mega64 podcast, but became a running joke on Giant Bomb and is still mentioned from time to time. Here's an early result of the meme. http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/video-game-website-coney-island-edition/2300-918/
"Hit that big ass ramp!" http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/50-cent-blood-on-the-sand-video-review/2300-289/
"Get bopped!" "Dave Lang is a monster." "Lang Zone." "D-Leazy" And roughly a billion others. Just.. just go look up Giant Bomb's extensive video history with one of the site's favorite monsters.
Dave Lang's phone's arch-nemesis. One third of the unholy triumvirate that is Dave Lang, Johnny Five, and Adam Boyes. Yes, that Adam Boyes. The one who seems so normal. "Oh, David, stop!"
Usually the one of the three to watch in shocked (but gleeful) horror as John V. and Dave Lang slowly destroy each other.
Smite was a repeatedly featured ad during a livestream not hosted by Giant Bomb. Over the course of a hellish weekend, viewers were subjected to the ad dozens, if not hundreds (depending on how much you love our overlord Smite in all its Smitten glory) of times. The game could be solid fuckin' gold, the greatest game ever made, but say its name and I'll still grit my teeth.
""Have you seen this?" \m/ Or is it /m\? I can never remember. Anyways. The fine folks at Atlas have brainwashed us all into Contradiction fanatics. Seriously, watch the full playthrough by Austin, Vinny, and Alex. It's terrific.

The question immortal - "What is Firewatch?" I think I have the right PAX, but as always, feel free to correct me like the raging man-child the Internet truly is! http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/pax-prime-2014-the-giant-bomb-panel/2300-9409/
Brad, Vinny, Jeff, and Drew argue about whether or not Brothers could wind up on a top ten list without question... only partly through the year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4yMDHoBNik
