Inanimate Insanity, is an animated series on YouTube created by AnimationEpic (Adam Katz). Its premise is inspired by Battle for Dream Islandnote which, in turn, was inspired by Total Drama, which was in turn a parody of reality TV/Survivor - a cast of Animate Inanimate Objects compete in a series of challenges in order to win the grand prize of 1 million dollars, all overseen by a living MePhone4.The first season (which ran from 1st April 2011 to 8th December 2012) has been completed and ultimately featured 16 contestants. The second season is currently ongoing - 8 members of the old cast return alongside 12 new characters. It also features a slow shift in tone towards drama.A Spin-Off comic series, known as Inanimate Comics, was released on July 8, 2020. It can be viewed on the official website and Youtube channel for comic dubs.On September 26, 2020, a Spin-Off animation series named Fan's Fantastic Features was released, following Fan interviewing the eliminated members of Hotel OJ. So far, four episodes have been released and can be viewed hereOn April 3, 2021, a third season, Inanimate Insanity Invitational, premiered while Season 2 is still in progress.

| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_14180452 | comment |
Instantly Proven Wrong: When Balloon gets picked to compete in Season 2 in "Breaking the Ice", Salt points out that nobody likes him, which he claims isn't true. At that moment Toilet returns with the "wires" MePhone4 wanted him to fetch and, upon seeing Balloon, immediately bursts out, "Oh my gosh, Balloon, nobody likes you!" | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The end of "Mine Your Own Business" sees Fan and Test Tube arguing over custody of their alien egg before the former gets sent to the Rejection Portal. This, combined with the Ship Tease the two had throughout the show, makes the scene look like a divorcing couple fighting over their children. The Shimmers' situation of child kidnapping and land destruction caused by Meeple brings European colonialism to mind. | |

Tempting Fate | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Played with in "Let Er' R.I.P.". Marshmallow gets annoyed by Apple hugging her tight so she won't get hurt while they're exploring Purgatory Mansion and tells her that nothing bad will happen if she lets her go. Apple does so and Marshmallow lands safely on the ground, saying, "See?" Then a giant spiked ball falls from the ceiling and separates them. However, given that Marshmallow wanted to get away from Apple's clinginess, this is actually a good thing for her, and she takes the opportunity to run away. | |

Repetitive Audio Glitch: In "Theft and Battery", the glitching caused by MePhone4 catching Tissues' "condishawn" causes him to do this several times. The first one occurring right as he says that he's probably fine, no less. | |

Neat Freak | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_1ea248b4 | comment |
In "Theft and Battery", Soap gets toilet water spat in her face by Toilet, nearly giving her a Neat Freak-induced panic attack, and then right afterwards gets thrown out of the Grand Slams' hot air balloon when it crashes into MeCloud, getting a floor tile stuck to her face. After Toilet rushes off ahead, yelling about how they need to get a new battery for MePhone4, she tranquilly says: | |

Take My Hand! | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_1fe36347 | comment |
Take My Hand!: MePhone4S says this to MePhone4 during the cliffhanger ending of "Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 1)". The hand adds, "Not so hard!". Funnily enough, the usual resolution for this cliché is subverted, as the MePhones merely fall onto the ground afterward, no parachute or anything. | |

Laugh Track | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_224c9aef | comment |
Laugh Track: Parodied in "Kick the Bucket". When MePhone4 invokes the "'her loss' clause" in response to Marshmallow not showing up for the episode's challenge, an audience laughs and claps, even though the show neither uses a laugh track out of universe nor is filmed in front of an audience in universe. It's then revealed to have been an in-universe sound effect MePad played using an app. | |

| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_23330a99 | comment |
Immediate Self-Contradiction: In "Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 1)", Baseball agrees with Paper that Idiotic Island isn't so bad and starts making a heartwarming speech about how the contestants have learned from each other over the course of the competition. Then MePhone4 comes along and asks who wants to leave the island. Baseball promptly kicks Nickel out of the way and yells at MePhone4 to let him out. As the contestants prepare to enter Purgatory Mansion in "Let Er' R.I.P.", Soap tells her teammates that she feels like she's finally getting over her Neat Freak tendencies. Then Baseball opens the door, revealing a large cobweb, and Soap immediately screams and runs to clean it up. | |

| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_23eb99cc | comment |
Voted Off the Island: The standard method of elimination. The votes were originally obtained by Audience Participation, but during several first season episodes and from "Kick the Bucket" onwards, the contestants vote each other off. During the third season, the only control the audience has is deciding who gets immunity during each episode. | |

Funny Background Event: Frequently. In various scenes, a character that is onscreen that isn't currently speaking will briefly have a very crazy face. When the Bright Lights are falling towards their demise after Toilet cuts the ropes on their hot air balloon in "Theft and Battery" and he and MePad are holding a conversation about Toilet's envy of the former, the other contestants can be seen in the background doing things like Lightbulb drinking a cup of tea and Fan updating his blog. | |

Back to the Early Installment: In "Alternate Reality Show", Lightbulb accidentally sends herself and Test Tube back to the events of the show's first episode using the latter's time machine. While there, she unthinkingly interferes with the episode's challenge, causing Salt and Pepper to be made team captains instead of herself and Balloon and creating an alternate timeline where they completely take over the show. | |

Super Window Jump | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_31f7c194 | comment |
Super Window Jump: "Let Er' R.I.P." has three accidental examples while the contestants are exploring Purgatory Mansion, all of them caused by the ghost of Bow: When she tells Cheesy that his joke wasn't funny, he gets angry and winds up to punch her. However, since she's incorporeal, he instead ends up throwing himself through her and the window behind her. When she reveals herself to Fan and Test Tube and pops Balloon in front of Suitcase, respectively, Fan and Suitcase get so scared that they run away and throw themselves out the window in a panic. When Toilet offers to trim the "big, ugly plant" (actually the hedge maze the episode's challenge centers around) he saw in MePhone4's backyard in "Mazed and Confused" and MePhone4 distractedly allows it, Toilet makes his exit from the radio tower the two are in by jumping through one of the tower's glass walls. | |

Destination Defenestration: A non-lethal version happens multiple times in "Let Er R.I.P", where the ghost of Bow agrees to help Marshmallow win the challenge by getting the other contestants out of Purgatory Mansion. In the case of Knife, Microphone, Paintbrush (as well as Lightbulb riding on Paintbrush's back), Apple, Baseball, and Nickel, she does this by tossing them out of the window through various methods. Cheesy, Fan, and Suitcase on the other hand end up tossing themselves out the window. Marshmallow later ends up falling victim to this herself, after she gets stuck on Soap's vacuum cleaner and the latter puts it in reverse and blows Marshmallow out the window. | |

Ascended Meme: "Test Tube Tango" was a meme originating in the II Discord before spreading to Twitter, where an out-of-context moment from the trailer of "Hatching the Plan" where Test Tube is seen wrapping her arm around Microphone was interpreted as leading into a tango song number. While this didn't happen, it did lead to a song of the same name on Volume 4 of the official soundtrack. | |

Death is Cheap: Contestants are able to come back to life thanks to MePhone4... provided that they don't die either before he can set them up in his MeLife app or die while he's dead. The process isn't shown until the beginning of Season 2, though (as lampshaded by Fan). | |

Please, I Will Do Anything!: In "Mars on Marsh", Knife tells Trophy this as the latter goes off to show the other contestants a picture he took of Knife playing with his Dora doll, leading to Knife agreeing to do everything Trophy says for the rest of the competition in exchange for him not showing anyone the photo. | |

Skewed Priorities: In "Let Er' R.I.P.", Soap is more concerned by how dirty Purgatory Mansion is than the fact that she may have just (re-)killed Bow's ghost by sucking her into her portable vacuum cleaner. | |

Paintbrush is then eliminated, so Lightbulb gives them Baxter as a reminder of her as the two part ways. | |

Offering a Hand: After Apple and Marshmallow realize in "Marsh on Mars" that the reason they hated each other was a misunderstanding on Apple's part, Marshmallow offers a truce and holds out her hand, which Apple accepts. Unfortunately, the moment is interrupted when the Cherries' revenge for Apple and Marshmallow ruining their act earlier sends Marshmallow flying to Mars. | |

Record Needle Scratch | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_4602f495 | comment |
Record Needle Scratch: This, along with a Sudden Soundtrack Stop, happens in "Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 2)" when MePhone4 reveals that the supposed Briefcase Full of Money containing the million dollar prize, which was lost earlier, was actually empty and that the money is safe and sound in a bank. In "Breaking the Ice", MePhone4 tries to make a dramatic entrance by parachuting out of a plane, only for the triumphant music to get cut off by this when his parachute fails to deploy before he hits the ground. In Balloon's flashback in "Rain on Your Charade", OJ decides to have a talk with Balloon and escorts him into Hotel OJ, where the other hotel guests are having a party. When they see the universally-reviled Balloon, the music gets cut off by one of these, followed by the guests leaving in disgust. | |

Microphone does this again in "Rain on Your Charade" when she meets Taco in Perilous Forest and angrily asks her what she's doing there.

Break the Cutie | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_4b316d47 | comment |
Break the Cutie: Poor Paper goes insane being trapped on Idiotic Island and develops a split personality because of it, with the split personality being Evil Paper, a murderous and dangerous personality that is brought up when Idiotic Island is mentioned. Paper is forced to eventually fight it off and wins. However, it is revealed by his voice actor that Paper is still haunted by memories of Evil Paper and because of that, he internally suffers while trying to live life as normal. Several characters remaining on the show by "Rain on Your Charade" have been negatively affected by the show's sadistic nature in some form. Baseball: Begins to have his doubts as a leader as his alliance begins to fall apart and he fails to stop an argument between Nickel and Suitcase during the maze challenge. When Suitcase destroys the alliance entirely by voting Nickel off the show, he falls into a slump and becomes much grouchier, wishing he could have done more to keep the alliance together. Suitcase: Nickel forces her to steal a battery, which results in an unlucky run-in with Mecintosh, and what he tells her causes her to slowly lose faith in her alliance. The encounter also causes her to start Hearing Voices, complete with disturbing hallucinations. Balloon: Struggles to make amends with the previous contestants, and as he grows closer with Suitcase, Nickel ostracizes him from the alliance and constantly badmouths him, thus making his self-esteem problems worse. Microphone: Becomes frustrated by her lack of voice on her team and tendency to mess up challenges, and Soap, her first real friend, is eliminated just as they find an accord. Starting to lose sight of herself, she ends up resorting to working with Taco to cheat her way through the game. She eventually realizes her mistake when she accidentally murders Test Tube and Fan, and quits the show due to how toxic the game has become at this point. Lightbulb: While not as negatively affected as her peers, she begins to feel separated from the others and wants everyone to be just like her — carefree and fun-loving. Fan: Grows increasingly frustrated and stressed out by the numerous changes to the show and wishes that everything was simple again. Marshmallow: Develops trust issues after she believes that Apple was using their friendship to get farther into the game, and begins to have problems with "what's real", growing hatred for the show because of its toxic nature in the way it destroys relationships and mentally breaks the contestants. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: According to Bomb in the second episode, Taco only spoke French and a few other words. This is never mentioned again, and Taco never speaks French throughout the entire show. Later episodes reveal that she is, in fact, capable of coherent speech, and she's actually an Evil Brit. Pickle was armless in “The Stupid Trailer.� He also had a bit of a Western drawl, but it ends up disappearing in the second episode. There was a lot of Toilet Humor in early season 1. This is justified since the creators were in their early years of high school at the time. In the first episode, MePhone is voiced by Christian Potenza. From the second episode on, he’s voiced by Mark Katz, Adam’s father. Lightbulb was initially male, hence why MePhone refers to her with he/him pronouns in "The Arena of Death". She would eventually be changed into a girl in order to aid in the gender imbalance among the contestants. | |

Trophy also does the same, but Baseball is cut off before he can do anything. In "Theft and Battery", Steve Cobs reacts to Balloon being unimpressed by his Meeple Watch invention, pointing out that he can just tell time on a normal wristwatch and considering being able to call someone with the watch dumb, by using a MeMurder app to, well, murder him. | |

After going through the window, he hangs in the air for a few moments, blinks audibly, and then falls screaming to the ground. When Toilet uses Knife to cut the ropes on the Bright Lights' hot air balloon in "Theft and Battery", the basket still remains suspended in the air for a few moments before plummeting towards the ground. | |

Suddenly Shouting: Paintbrush does this twice in "Theft and Battery": First to Fan, out of frustration over the latter's indifference towards the challenges and the fact that his prediction of who would win last episode's challenge was proven correct. The second instance is when the Bright Lights, Toilet, and MePad are falling towards their deaths and the latter two choose that moment to have a heartfelt conversation. Fan himself does this when MePhone4 reveals that there won't be an elimination in "Mazed and Confused", silently muttering, "Oh my gosh..." to himself before yelling, "No elimination?!" | |

Troubled Fetal Position: Played for laughs in "Mazed and Confused", in which Fan freaks out upon finding out that the episode won't have an elimination and starts laughing madly before rocking back and forth in this position while sobbing. | |

Immoral Reality Show | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_615a96fb | comment |
Immoral Reality Show: The contest is notorious for its crude, traumatizing, and friendship-destroying nature, which leads to a ton of negative reception from the contestants themselves. A major example of the negative reception is Marshmallow leaving the show to stay with Bow at Purgatory Mansion. Eliminated contestants are sent off to be stuck on Idiotic Island in Season 1, and into the rejection portal in Season 2. The latter is revealed to lead to a small closet somewhere in OJ's hotel, which makes things worse once Tissues is eliminated, sickening everyone in there by sneezing on them. Fortunately, a court order perpetrated by OJ changes the portal's destination to designated rooms in the hotel after MePhone4's 1-day jail sentence. Season 3 isn't much better, as eliminated contestants are hit hard enough by the Fist Thingy to fly an unknown distance over the ocean and land hard on a spooky island where they are doomed to stay if they don't get on a rowboat to go back to Hotel OJ. Luckily, Blueberry and Fan enjoy being hit by the Fist Thingy (even if they scream while flying through the air), so not as bad as before, but still not much better either. | |

MePhone4 resigns himself to not getting to host Season 2, only for Adam to reveal that the "mass hysteria" made their ratings hit an all-time high and that he's begging MePhone4 to host the next season. | |

Microphone tries to point out that there's no point to this since every member of the team has to get through the maze for them to win, but everyone else leaves off-screen before she can even finish her sentence. | |

Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs: "The Penultimate Poll" has a multiple-person variant.

MePhone4 then reveals that the prizes are sour sock cream and cookie kebabs. Without the cookies, because he's a fat slob and he ate them. | |

Freeze Ray: In "Mazed and Confused", Balloon accidentally leads Nickel, Baseball, and Suitcase into a booby-trapped section of MePhone4's maze, setting off several Ray Guns that zap the latter three. Nickel gets zapped by one of these, temporarily freezing him solid and still leaving ice stuck on him after getting smashed into a wall breaks him out. In the next scene, another ray gun of the same type zaps at Test Tube several times, though unlike Nickel, she manages to avoid being hit (though she does nearly drop the egg Fan entrusted her in the process). | |

Dysfunction Junction | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_820ac3c5 | comment |
Dysfunction Junction: The Grand Slams. Knife (less so later on), Nickel, and Trophy are unpleasant assholes, Cheesy is The Friend Nobody Likes who bothers everyone with jokes, Suitcase is a pushover stuck in the Trauma Conga Line, Balloon is struggling to make amends with the other players, Microphone can't control her volume and just wants to be acknowledged by her teammates, Soap suffers from OCD and tries to get over it in later episodes, and Baseball struggles to keep his team and alliance together, something he laments about in "Mazed and Confused". The Bright Lights aren't exempt from this trope either. Lightbulb, despite her team leader position and bright ideas, would rather goof around as opposed to focusing on challenges; Cherries try to get attention by making people happy, but aren't recognized; Test Tube is socially awkward and can be a nervous wreck at times; Paintbrush has an extremely violent temper and takes the game too seriously; Tissues has a sickness that renders him useless to the team; Yin-Yang's two personalities are at constant war with each other; Fan's obsession with the show contributes to his slacking off; and then there's Marshmallow's dilemma with Apple and Bow. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: "Rain On Your Charade" is the episode kickstarting the show's Cerebus Syndrome. The icing on the cake, however, is when Taco, whose whereabouts were unknown up until that point, returns out of nowhere near the end of the episode. "Hatching The Plan" is a big one for Season 2. Fan finally knows where his egg came from and it returns home, Microphone avoids Jumping Off the Slippery Slope and eliminates herself, and the final four are revealed. "Best Served Cold" isn’t as whammy as the previous other two, but it still definitely has it’s points. The teams end up being rearranged, the biggest threat in the game at that point, Cabby, gets eliminated, and The Stinger reveals that Bow isn’t actually Bow, but rather a robot created in her image. | |

Fireball Eyeballs: At the start of "Rain on Your Charade", Suitcase confides to Baseball that when she was stealing the MePhone4 battery for her team in the previous episode, she felt like someone was going to jump out to yell at her. She then herself starts shouting what she imagines the person would say, and when she gets to "Let death be your punishment!", she gets so worked up that little flames appear inside her eyes. | |

Saying Sound Effects Out Loud: After Nickel says that he's planning on scalping the tickets the non-eliminated contestants in "Rain on Your Charade" get on the internet, MePhone4 replies that he "won't be scalping jacksquat" if he's eliminated. Knife, unintimidated, says "Gasp." sarcastically. | |

Nothing Personal | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_921cdca8 | comment |
Nothing Personal: Baseball says these words twice in the second season in the context of contestant voting. After Nickel treats Suitcase overly harshly, Baseball tells her that his behavior is nothing personal to make her feel better. He later asks if that conversation meant nothing when Suitcase votes for Nickel, subjecting him to a double elimination. She points out that it has never been personal since she and Nickel were hardly friends. Baseball tells this to Test Tube after she is eliminated and he admits to voting for her. He says that it was a hard decision, but she was the biggest threat in the competition. | |

Mistaken for Transformed: In "Marsh on Mars", Marshmallow gets sent to Mars and the teams are tasked with bringing her back, with the Grand Slams arriving first and taking her on their rocket back home. When the Bright Lights arrive after them, they spot an alien egg and assume, for no good reason, that Marshmallow has turned into an egg. They bring the egg back in hopes of somehow "turning her back", only to find out that the other team already got her. | |

Take a Third Option | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_950bbfa7 | comment |
Take a Third Option: Paintbrush's gender is discussed several times throughout the show, with everyone wondering if Paintbrush is a boy or a girl. Turns out, Paintbrush is neither, they are non-binary. The reason why Paintbrush never brings it up is because they are embarrassed by this fact and they don't know if anyone knows that there is a "C": None of the above. Lightbulb is the first one to find out and accept it, and the other characters casually referring to Paintbrush as "they" in Season 3 implies that they became more open about it afterwards. | |

Split Screen: "Kick the Bucket" has a split shot of Test Tube and Balloon (divided by a lightning bolt for extra dramatic effect) as they both throw the final ball their respective teams need to hit a target to win the episode's challenge. Test Tube hits the target while Balloon misses, meaning that the Bright Lights win the challenge. | |

Made of Iron: Downplayed. The characters go through a whopping helping handful of abuse, including getting punched by the Fist Thingy so hard they fly through the air and land hard on the ground, falling off ladders, and being hit by falling ladders, and they always get up unharmed. However, they do have their limits, as Lightbulb, OJ, and Test Tube shatter frequently, Fan gets destroyed with his paper getting ripped, and Marshmallow gets roasted by being thrown into fires or being lit on fire. | |

Overly-Nervous Flop Sweat: After Suitcase steals a MePhone4 battery for her alliance in "Theft and Battery" and proclaims her innocence in a Suspiciously Specific Denial fashion, she starts sweating as everybody stares at her, weirded out by her statement. It only gets heavier when the action causes an alarm to go off and she's seemingly pointed out as the culprit. | |

Filler | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_9de2bf95 | comment |
Filler: Discussed in "Rain on Your Charade". When MePhone4 says that they're going to keep things low-key in that episode since the events of the previous two episodes threw him off schedule. Fan takes this to mean that the episode is going to be filler, and MePhone4 doesn't help his case by denying this repeatedly (one time speaking way slower than he needs to for no apparent reason other than to take more time) and making up a story on the spot about Marshmallow losing her (non-existent) bottlecap collection. While Marshmallow, Lightbulb, and Paintbrush look for said bottlecaps, the words "NOT FILLER" flash on the screen in big, red letters. Of course, out of universe, it's very much not an example, as the final scene of the episode has Taco offering her secret help to Microphone, which ends up being a major plot thread of the season going forward. | |

Punctuated! For! Emphasis! | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_9e0c3153 | comment |
Punctuated! For! Emphasis!: Two instances in "Breaking the Ice": Salt decides to take a break from exercising to get a cookie. Baseball, who was just vomited on by Lightbulb after she ate too many cookies, tells her, "Don't. You. Dare." During the challenge, Knife attempts to push Baseball off the ice, but fails due to his "fatness". Baseball takes a deep breath, and then yells "I'm! Not! Fat!" before kicking Knife off. When Balloon volunteers to go to Mars to save Marshmallow in "Marsh on Mars", Baseball responds thusly: "Let Er' R.I.P.": When Bow offers to help Marshmallow scare the other contestants, Marshmallow questions why she would do that when Marshmallow is the one who got her killed. Bow, who is very fond of the tail she has in her ghost form, gets into Marshmallow's face and replies, "I. Have. A tail." When Marshmallow overhears Apple gloating over how she was only pretending to be friends with her to get farther into the game, Marshmallow confronts her with a "You! Big! Jerk!" After Bow possesses Baseball and makes him chase Nickel out a window and the now-freed Baseball asks what just happened, Nickel says "Oh. My. Gosh." before gushing about how Baseball actually managed to scare him. In "Theft and Battery", Soap gets toilet water spat in her face by Toilet, nearly giving her a Neat Freak-induced panic attack, and then right afterwards gets thrown out of the Grand Slams' hot air balloon when it crashes into MeCloud, getting a floor tile stuck to her face. After Toilet rushes off ahead, yelling about how they need to get a new battery for MePhone4, she tranquilly says: Paintbrush finishes their furious chewing out of Fan in "Mazed and Confused" by yelling, "I! Hate! You!" | |

"Afterlife in the Limelight" from "Kick the Bucket" could be called "Mood Whiplash: The Song". It starts with Bow singing about how much fun the contestants get to have on the show, complete with a montage of the Bright Lights being dorks, and how she doesn't "feel alive" without the game. Cue the piano music slowing down and Marshmallow singing about how the game tears apart relationships and emotional states as the montage shifts into a more dramatic one, prominently featuring the Grand Slams. | |

Take That! | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: A dubiously sincere one occurs in "A Lemony Lesson", where Nickel degrades Knife for slacking off and watching Desperate Housewives: "That show is terrible!" In "Double Digit Desert", Baseball is given a copy of Twilight when he fails to rejoin the game and pleads for a different book. He does not like it. Dough was created as a spoof of the Glee episode "Big Brother" (where a character's older brother debuts). "Theft and Battery" is primarily made of jabs at Apple — specifically, the (then-new) iPhone6's tendency to bend, the redundancy of the Apple Watch, and the company's tendency to release excessive amounts of new products. | |

Glass-Shattering Sound | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_baeb2d6f | comment |
Glass-Shattering Sound: In "Marsh on Mars", Apple claims that Marshmallow's high-pitched voice could shatter glass. Marshmallow then proceeds to prove her point when her offended "Hey!" shatters Test Tube. | |

Mixed Metaphor: When Paintbrush complains about how dark Purgatory Mansion is in "Let Er' R.I.P.", Lightbulb tells them that she'll take care of it since she's "the sharpest bulb in the shed", mixing together "the sharpest knife in the drawer" and "the brightest bulb in the shed". | |

Impairment Shot | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_bc3b029b | comment |
Impairment Shot: As Lightbulb is dragging a passed-out Fan towards the finish line of the titular maze in "Mazed and Confused", he wakes up and asks how they got there, as last he knew, they were hopelessly lost. As Lightbulb responds that three heads are better than one, we cut to Fan's perspective as he sees triple and Lightbulb's voice echoes, making it look and sound like there are three of her. | |

When it finishes playing, Bow's ghost pops out of it and roars at Marshmallow, scaring her so badly that she falls paralyzed to the floor. | |

| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_c02925f0 | comment |
Wingding Eyes: In "The Penultimate Poll", Salt gets heart eyes when she tells Pepper that she and OJ may be more than friends. When the sick MePhone4 glitches so badly that he shuts down in "Theft and Battery", his eyes turn into red X's before he shuts down. "Mazed and Confused": Suitcase gets literal stars in her eyes from excitement when Nickel sarcastically suggests they make Balloon team captain and she, as the only person who trusts him, thinks it's a great idea. Fan gets heart eyes as he gushes over how the lyrics to Spoiled Lemon's "A Party" are pure poetry. After Test Tube gets thrown into the lake in "Kick the Bucket", she gets spiral eyes when she gets woozy from the liquid inside her diluting into the water. | |

Big "NO!": Taco yells this when OJ starts to overtake her in their race for the finish line in "Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 2)". When Hotel OJ gets destroyed by MePhone4's plane in "Breaking the Ice", Salt happily tells OJ that they can fix up the hotel together, then drags him inside while he yells this. Knife lets out one in "Let Er R.I.P", when Bow forcefully drags him out of Purgatory Mansion after she destroys his Dora doll in front of him. Soap does this in "Rain on Your Charade" after Microphone throws her cleaning supplies off a cliff, before pulling herself together and thanking her, recognising that she needed it. In "Hatching the Plan", Fan accidentally causes Trophy's big jar of Cacao Nibs to shatter, making him scream "NOOOOOOO!". | |

Shout-Out | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Rainbow Dash barely appears behind a cloud in "Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 1)". MePhone4S is a Captain Ersatz of The Terminator. Likewise, MePhone5 has elements of the T-1000. MePhone4S's hand speaks using a sound clip of the Mine Turtle saying, "Hello!" "Aquatic Conflict" has SpongeBob's pineapple house in an underwater scene. "The Penultimate Poll": When Pickle is wondering whether he should vote off OJ or Paper, his thoughts are illustrated as pencil drawings, and him noting that OJ is a huge complainer is illustrated by a picture of OJ telling Staci from Total Drama: Revenge of the Island to shut up. In the same scene, a drawing of Paper inexplicably turns into a paper version of Stewie from Family Guy for a moment. In "Let 'Er R.I.P.", Soap hoovers up Bow's ghost using a back-mounted vacuum cleaner that resembles the Poltergust 3000 from Luigi's Mansion. Dipper's hat from Gravity Falls can be seen on the hat stand OJ grabs an umbrella from to give to Balloon in the latter's flashback in "Rain on Your Charade". | |

Get A Hold Of Yourself Man: In "Inanimate Smackdown", OJ accidentally triggers Evil Paper by asking Paper if he had his problem before he went to Idiotic Island. Evil Paper prepares to smash him with a chair, but before he can do so, OJ slaps him, bringing normal Paper back. When Soap prepares to throw her cleaning supplies off a cliff to overcome her Neat Freak tendencies in "Rain on Your Charade", she starts getting cold feet at the last second and begins a reprise of "Keep on Cleaning" from "Everything's A-OJ". One line into the song, Microphone slaps her, yells at her to pull herself together, and throws the supplies off herself. | |

| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: A justified example occurs in "Mine Your Own Business". MePhone4, in his flashbacks, has his voice from after the MeTunes update, instead of being voiced by Christian Potenza. The reason why this is justified is that the creators wanted the flashbacks to be taken seriously. | |

Ensemble Dark Horse: Invoked and observed. Taco acted like a stupid, quirky buffoon because she knew that the audience would love her for it, thus granting her nigh-immunity from elimination straight to the finale. Later on, in Inanimate Insanity Invitational, Yin-Yang kept getting the fan immunity vote, which prompted MePhone to shut down the fan immunity entirely since it had gotten predictable and boring. This is also why Yin-Yang is targeted by Blueberry after he rejoins, since the jury vote determines the winner, making Yin-Yang win near-automatically if he does get to the finale. | |

Blank White Eyes: Toilet gets these in "Marsh on Mars" when he finds out that the new assistant MePhone4 lavished praise upon is actually MePad, not him. Toilet gets another instance in "Rain on Your Charade" when he shows MePhone4 the cards he worked hard to make to present the results of the elimination ceremony, only for the unimpressed MePhone4 to casually blow them away. He gets a blink-and-you-miss-it instance of this from shock in "Kick the Bucket" when MePhone4 tells him to "zip it" after repeatedly turning down Toilet's attempts to get his attention. | |

Musicalis Interruptus: When Soap starts having second thoughts about throwing away her cleaning supplies in "Rain on Your Charade", she begins to sing a reprise of "Keep on Cleaning" from "Everything's A-OJ". She only gets through the first line before Microphone slaps her and yells at her to pull it together. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Taco, after MePhone5 gets knocked off the cliff in "Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 2)". Marshmallow eventually grows tired of the competition since she believes that it destroys morality, emotional states, and friendships, so she leaves the show to live with Bow in Purgatory Mansion. Even though she wins the challenge in "Hatching the Plan", Microphone voluntarily quits the competition during the elimination, as she has severed ties with Taco and is frustrated with how the show has broken everyone. | |

Universal Group Reaction: "Theft and Battery": Done two times in the same scene. When MePad explains that MePhone4 needs a new battery from MeCloud, the contestants, having never heard of MeCloud, all give a confused "Huh?" Shortly thereafter, to get the contestants to help him get the battery, MePad claims that it's a challenge and that anyone who does not participate will be eliminated, causing the contestants to all gasp in horror. The Grand Slams have another moment later, when they all gasp in horror when Soap decides to solve the issue of the Bright Lights being right behind them by throwing Toilet at them. | |

Audience Participation | |
| Inanimate Insanity (Web Animation) / int_dd91f8d8 | comment |
Audience Participation: Like Battle for Dream Island before it, viewers are allowed to choose which contestant they want to eliminate. From "Mazed and Confused" on, elimination is switched to contestant voting, while viewers get to vote on the next episode's challenge. Later, in "Mine Your Own Business", voting is dropped altogether for Season 2. It's initially brought back in Season 3 through immunity voting (voting for whom you want safe), but thanks to Yin-Yang getting immunity constantly, it was dropped again in "Home Is Where the Heart Is". | |

I must ask why." The fact that he soon afterwards reveals that he can teleport them all to safety at any point may have something to do with it. | |

Glad I Thought of It: When MePhone4, Toilet, and MePad are brainstorming challenge ideas at the start of "Mazed and Confused", Toilet suggests that MePhone4 should take another look at their whiteboard and that "maybe the idea is right in front of [him]". MePhone4 tries to do so for a few moments, then decides that it isn't working. As Toilet and MePad discuss something else, MePhone4 looks again and realises that the first letters of the ideas in blue sharpie spell out "MAZE", giving him his challenge idea. Toilet tries to point out that he just said that, but MePhone4 ignores him in favour of generating a maze for the challenge. | |

When Pickle takes off his eyepatch, revealing that both eyes are now fine, OJ slaps his forehead in response to Pickle's stupidity. When Paintbrush suggests that Test Tube could build the Bright Lights' rocket in "Marsh on Mars", Lightbulb dismisses the idea that she'd be good at science just because she's a test tube as prejudiced. When Paintbrush's judgment is proven correct, Lightbulb just admits that they were right "this time", causing Paintbrush to slap their forehead. | |

Comically Missing the Point: In "Theft and Battery", the sick MePhone4 prepares to reveal what the challenge of the episode is when he glitches out, rendering the name of the challenge unintelligible. Lightbulb, Cloudcuckoolander that she is, thinks that the garbled noise he makes is the name of the challenge. | |

This Is a Competition: Though it's a hard decision for Baseball, he votes for Test Tube to be eliminated because she's brilliant, which means that she's a huge threat to his game. | |

"Rain On Your Charade" features a flashback where Balloon attempts but ultimately fumbles apologizing to OJ for his behavior in Season 1, and OJ misunderstands his desire to make amends, leaves him outside in the rain, and slams the door in his face. Flash forward to the present, and Balloon breaks down in tears, worrying that nobody cares that he wants to atone, but Suitcase tells him that she cares and that he just has to believe in what he says if he wants to make a sincere apology to the previous contestants. And then the upbeat intro plays. | |

Talking Is a Free Action | |

Talking Is a Free Action: In "Theft and Battery", Toilet, MePad, and the Bright Lights falling to their deaths gives the former two ample time to have a heartfelt conversation about Toilet's envy of MePad. | |

Shown Their Work: Meeple surprisingly has a lot of research put into it involving Apple, such as Steve Cobs's garage and the remark about him being a video game designer. | |

Larynx Dissonance: A few female characters are voiced by men who don't make too much of an effort to sound female. | |
