Words and phrases

 * Tubbo Moment - A "Tubbo Moment" usually happens when Tubbo does/says/acts weird or irregular. The word isn't limited to just Tubbo as someone else can be referred to as having a Tubbo moment.
 * Examples:
 * Eret: "So, what do you do for a living?"
 * Tubbo: "I'm... I'm-- I paint... sofas"
 * Tubbo has dyslexia, a condition in which the affected person has a difficult time being able to identify speech parts and piecing them together. This makes it hard for him to read and pronounce, so his condition has resulted in many "Tubbo Moments".

 * Muffin - Muffin is a term that is commonly used to reference a person or a thing, first trended by BadBoyHalo. It can also be a substitute for another word.
 * Examples:
 * Bad: "Be careful, you muffin, what are you doing!"
 * Bad: "Oh my gosh, he's totally muffined."
 * Alternative versions:
 * Muffinhead - Another way of calling someone a muffin, usually a more direct humanoid reference
 * Bad: "No, keep going, you muffinhead!"
 * BadBoyHalo isn't someone who usually curses, and as a result, he usually substitutes any words that could be vulgar/offensive (though not usually so) with muffin. He also just likes to call people muffins. "Muffin" can also be used a compliment.
 * Other content creators often tease him for using "muffin" as a replacement for the word "fuck". He denies this.
 * Coined by: BadBoyHalo
 * Mainly used by: BadBoyHalo


 * Honk - Honk is a term that mainly said by itself or with its alterations. It has no general meaning and is used more as a sound effect when used alone. It can also be a substitute for another word or just a replacement for another.
 * Examples:
 * Karl: "What a honkin' day chat"
 * Karl: "Honk"
 * Karl: "What the honk is going on here"
 * Alternative versions:
 * "What the Honk" - most commonly said questioningly ("What the Honk?"), Surprisingly ("Oh What the Honk") and can be changed with any other emotionally connotative tone of voice expressed by the speaker, also another way to say "What the Hell".
 * "Honk" - purely a sound effect.
 * (N.C) No one is really sure where Karl got the whole honking expression from, but it is one of the most concurrent things in his streams.
 * Coined by: Karl Jacobs.
 * Mainly used by: Karl and Sapnap
 * Big ___ - Referring to someone as the adjective "Big" followed by the first letter of their name. Sometimes the adjective is replaced with "Huge" or "Little" or another adjective that references size.
 * Examples:
 * Big Q (most notable example)
 * Big/Small D
 * Big T (has been used for multiple people with a "T" name, mainly Tubbo)
 * Coined by: Tommy, who tends to do this the most. Tommy has also admitted to doing this in real life.
 * "Pep in my step" - A phrase often used by Tommy during his Exile arc. Because Tommy's mental health was at the lowest point yet, he used this phrase often to mean that he felt he was in a better mental state.
 * Examples:
 * Tommy: "Oh, I got pep in me step"
 * Tommy: "Oh, chat, I got a little pep in my step today!"
 * Alternative versions:
 * "Pep in me step" - same phrase, but it rolls off the tongue easier for Tommy

 * Wilbur: "There was a saying, Phil, by a traitor, a traitor once part of L'Manberg. (...) He had a saying, Phil. It was never meant to be." (right before pressing the button to detonate the TNT underneath L'Manberg after the Manberg vs Pogtopia War)
 * Niki: "Chat...It was never meant to be (...) Bye L'Manberg, you were a true friend." (after she burnt down the L'Mantree at the end of the Doomsday War.)
 * Alternative versions:
 * "It was meant to be" - An opposite version of the phrase that parallels the original.
 * Tommy: "After everything... It was meant to be!" (in his speech after winning the Manberg vs Pogtopia War)

 * Coined by: Eret
 * Canon / Canonical / "Part of the script" - Refers to whether an event or death is a part of the lore, story, script, or planned event in the Dream SMP. Members of the SMP may loosely joke about an unplanned event or death being "canon" or "a part of the script," or refer to whether their character is canonically "aware" of a plot-point or event.
 * Example:
 * After Ranboo was killed by Clarencio the Llama, there was some debate whether this counted as his first canonical death as part of the 3 Lives System on the Dream SMP, as his wiki page had been updated to show he had lost one life at the time.  As the event was not of major story significance (as it was a joke death), the page was later updated to show that the death was no longer canon.
 * Tubbo Thoughts - A segment coined by Tubbo where he expressed his ideas on shows. It was coined on January 20, 2021 while Ranboo streamed a chill non-lore stream with Tubbo, who was crying over Grey's Anatomy.
