Hey, are you a newer Shoot from the Hip fan and struggling to figure out where fandom jokes/references come from? Or someone who's just kinda forgetful? Here's a hopefully helpful list for your convenience!
(this is all to the best of my knowledge, but I'm human and sometimes make mistakes. If anything is wrong I will return to edit it)
Pigeons as a fandom name; Longform #80 We Love Poetry, Luke refers to the Audience as pigeons
"Be Careful™"; Long form #8 The Hare Who Wore A Sweater, AJ first says the phase and adding the ™ has been a reoccurring thing whenever it's said.
"Oo's yer dad?" Long form #22 The Milkman, AJ's name for a TV show
André Beetroot; Long form #23 Beetroots & Murder, he's a character played by AJ who runs a Beetroot competition and has a TV Show. He also appears in Long form #35 Burglary and Bobsledding, hosting a bobsledding event, as well as appearing again in some Patreon exclusive stuff. He's definitely a fan favourite.
[blank]-j; Not one specific video, but a common way people describe AJ doing things™ that come from both the fandom and subtitlers. Some notable ones include confused-j, foot-j, panic-j, and many more
Shoot From The Hip Disciplinary Meeting; Again, not tied to one specific video. This is a joke the boys themselves often make whenever someone says something that out there. A prime example of this (and the first that comes to mind) is the Peter Pan after Dark short. Luke and Sam are usually the ones people talk about with these jokes
"Stag Stag Stag"; Long form #51 Sorry About My Nan, this is a reoccurring chant throughout the whole thing, started by Tom if I recall correctly. I believe it's popularity also increased again with the release of Roll From The Hip's Stag Part 1
"Please, grammatically continue," Long Form #26 Priscilla's Final Petel, Tom (Mr two-english-degrees) says this to Sam who's messing up at grammar.
"Leather engraved engravings," & The Letter™; Long Form #56 The Haunted Diary Entry, AJ and Tom perform the chaos that is known as The Letter™ scene, where close to the end AJ says the line "Leather engraved engravings" while talking about a book cover. And Tom (again, Mr two-english-degrees) does tease him about it just a little by reusing the phrase several times.
Bus; Why is a totally normal form of transportation giving the fandom flashbacks you ask? We have Long form #12 BUS (yes that's the full name) to blame for that. And really, the video speaks plenty for itself, so I don't feel the need to say anything. My 'warning' to anyone planning to watch is 1; it's not about a bus & 2; it's got such a reputation for a reason (and we love it for that)
"My body is a temple to destruction!"; Long form #21 The Neighbour's Under The Bed, the beginning to one of the most popular Tom monologues (Tomonlogues as they're known)
Tiny Giraffe Park; The video Welcome... to Tiny Giraffe Park, it's a short scene performed virtually on a live stream started with the line "I haven't seen a giraffe that small" from the live chat chosen by AJ . It was either Sam or AJ who said the phrase "Tiny Giraffe Park", while Luke played the tiny giraffe.
SONIC BOOM; Long form #46 The Pilot's Final Flight, this line is yelled quite a few times if I'm remembering correctly, but I believe it was Luke or AJ as the biggest contributors.
The Astral Plane: Long form #20 The Leftenmost Window, Sam and Tom break the fourth way quite literally by entering the audience, calling it The Astral Plane. There are a lot of really compelling fan theories about how this actually works in universe.
Alright thats all I have time for right now, I'm sure there's definitely more I'm missing though. Please feel free to add onto this list and if you have any questions do let me know! I'll do my best to help you find the answer!
