Guide to DougDoug memes

This is a simple guide to established memes, jokes, and lore that is often referenced in Twitch Chat. This may be useful to new viewers or to other streamers who ever find themselves suddenly swarmed by Doug fans. This list is sorted based on how common said meme is in the community.

Rigged

 * Refers to the idea that Doug has somehow "rigged" something to happen in his stream despite having no evidence.
 * Often shouted in chat whenever Twitch Chat doesn't get their way for any reason, or when people lose channel points to a prediction.
 * It is also shouted out when Twitch Chat is in a competition, and the opposing side has had something beneficial happen to them, especially when Twitch Chat loses a game.

Rogged

 * A recent variation of the Rigged meme.
 * Comes from when viewers would accidentally mistype Rigged as Rogged, since the letters I and O are next to each other on the QWERTY Keyboard.
 * Overtime, it became more funny, and people started substituting Rigged for Rogged, when Doug would get annoyed that people are spamming Rigged in chat.

Rigged but Fair

 * Another recent variation of the Rigged meme.
 * Originates from when Doug would complain that chat is being childish spamming Rigged, and suggested a way to express that they feel unhappy, while also not repeating old jokes.
 * It then spawned the phrase "Rigged but Fair" which is a phrase used by Chat to not explicitly say that the opponent cheated, or it was rigged against them, or something else, but to formally state that they are discontent.
 * Typically it is used when Chat acknowledges that a certain action is fair and plausible, but they are still unhappy.

Rogged but Fair

 * A combination of both the "Rogged" and "Rigged but Fair" sub-memes
 * Not much more else is to say about this meme, other than the fact that it is even more incoherent for new viewers watching than the previous Rigged memes.

Other Rigged Variants

 * It is worth mentioning how there are numerous more variants and variants of these variants of the Rigged meme that people come up with occasionally.
 * Such variants include, but are not limited to; Rogged but Unfair, Rogged but Mayor, Ragged, Dogged, Dogged but Unfair, Riggeth, Dugged, and more.
 * Whenever you come across one of these variants in Chat, they all practically mean the same thing, but are just more nonsensical.

Planned

 * Essentially the opposite of "rigged." Refers to the idea that somehow Twitch Chat "planned" to rig something that happens in stream themselves.
 * Possibly the most iconic example is in the US AI Invasion (vod/video), when Twitch Chat votes to kill Saul Goodman only for the AI to decide that Saul should return as an angel and use heavenly power to annihilate Doug's army, and chat claims it was "planned" all along (timestamp).
 * The meme is heavily inspired by a meme from the game RDR2 ("I had a goddamn plan!")

Divorce



 * Originates from the GTA V "invisible car challenge" (vod/video).
 * Many members of Twitch Chat claim to be going through divorces, and Doug offers divorce counseling.
 * This has become a regular meme. People are often coming up with new ways to make divorce jokes. Doug's Twitch Chat gets very excited whenever divorce is mentioned.
 * Ironically, DougDoug made a divorce joke in his first ever YouTube video "[Hearthstone Five SECRET Arena Tips ]" back in 2015, predating the vod that introduced the divorce joke by 6 years.

Olive Oil

 * Originates from the Skyrim Marriage Speedrun (vod/video).
 * Doug talks about how he is currently on a Keto Diet, and since he dislikes spending the time to cook, he will often just drink straight shots of olive oil when he needs extra calories. He mentions he didn't think it would be that interesting. Twitch Chat disagrees.
 * Chat has now become concerned about the unhealthy side effects that could come along with drinking straight olive oil, but overtime, it just became another funny meme, and they got used to it.
 * Doug's olive oil drinking sparked the idea that he is obsessed with Olive Oil, but contrary to popular belief, he actually hates the taste, but only drinks it for efficient calories and sustenance.
 * One thing he has mentioned is that it makes him feel like a Gigachad when he can drink pure shots of olive oil in front of people, as a show of resilience.
 * This is best demonstrated when he did this in front of fellow Twitch streamer and YouTuber, Ludwig, during the Twitch Chat vs YouTube Chat stream (vod/video). Ludwig was left extremely confused and in disbelief.

Basement

 * Originates from the Twitch Stream "Zelda Randomized Treasure Hunt Challenge - Day ??? (VOD)" (vod/clip)
 * One of Doug's viewers in the stream sends a text-to-speech donation saying "Help, I'm being held hostage on stream and I don't even know what's going on"
 * Doug then says "I know what I say doesn't do anything in you guys' brain, but I really want to emphasize, you are NOT like locked up in my basement being forced to watch this ... except for the one guy."
 * Twitch Chat then begins to pretend that they are trapped in Doug's basement, often screaming for help in the chat, and begging Doug to let them free in TTS donations.
 * This has now become a recurring joke in his streams, as Chat occasionally continues to exclaim that there are forced into Doug's basement, and Doug goes along with the joke.

Zorbin'

 * See linked page.
 * "Zorb" is a verb referring to the action of redeeming the "10% chance to summon Billy Mays" channel point reward, which plays the Zorbees infomercial on Doug's stream. If Mays is summoned, Doug has been successfully "zorbed."

ChairChair

 * Doug will occasionally leave his chair for various reasons which leads his chat to begin yelling and cheering for his chair.
 * Some viewers believe that ChairChair is more of the main character than Doug is.
 * There was confirmed to be a clone of ChairChair in the "Eating a fish while wearing a Bunny Suit" vod.
 * (Chair highlights/ChairChair Clone)

Parkzer

 * Parkzer is one of Doug's closest friends and a fan favorite person / character / personality on the YT Channel.
 * He first appeared in the video "I brought a Real Lawyer to teach me Gun Safety". The video initially focuses on how Doug says that Parkzer is really good at Tetris, and wanted him to play against his Twitch viewers in Tetris 99, and for every person who beat Parkzer, Doug would gift a Twitch sub.
 * Later on, the video focuses on the fact that Doug is asking Parkzer questions about the fact that he owns a gun, and tries to come up with scenarios where Parkzer would willingly shoot a man with a gun, short of said man actively threatening his life.
 * This is sort of a puzzle Doug has been trying to crack, as Parkzer is the most responsible gun owner he knows, and he thought that since he owned a gun he used it very frequently, which is not at all the case.
 * At first there are stupid questions like "If you saw a guy breastfeeding in the grocery store, would you shoot him?" But later on it then shifts to the morality and legality aspect of having to shoot a guy with a gun. Topics such as law in international waters and the Yellowstone Park "Zone of Death", all so Doug could find a way for Parkzer to shoot him.
 * Parkzer then talks about this legal stuff, but says that he is not a certified lawyer and/or expert, to which Doug stated that he was, and then people in Chat started calling him and referring to him as a Lawyer, even though he has clarified that he is only studying in criminology.
 * The subject then moves on to talking about Parkzer as a cop, in which he states that he was never a sworn officer, and that he primarily only did operations, administrations, and investigations. Naturally, Doug and Chat started calling him a Cop too.
 * It has become a running joke in the community about Parkzer being a lawyer and a Cop and an expert in numerous other stuff too.

Diablo the Cheater

 * Originates from Doug updating his LinkedIn profile using AI (vod/video).
 * InferKit comes up with a new name for Doug, Diablo the Cheater, who is apparently a god (timestamp). The Diablo the Cheater passage ends up winning the vote to go on his LinkedIn profile, so Diablo the Cheater has become something of a nickname for him.
 * Doug has the role "Diablo the Cheater" in his Discord server, as well as "Nick Cage's Boyfriend," referencing another AI-generated passage in the same stream (timestamp).
 * Whenever Twitch Chat thinks that Doug is cheating somehow, they will often shout "DIABLO THE CHEATER" in chat.

(Literally) 1751

 * Varitation on the "literally 1984" meme, which references Orwell's 1984 whenever something that could possibly be construed as censorship happens - usually when certain phrases or people are banned from chat.
 * "1751" originates from the Rosa's 23rd birthday stream (vod/video), when chat was taking Sporcle quizzes on sea otters, and in a quiz where answers were selected from a bank of words, one of the answers was "1751," which was not answered in a question and chat still doesn't know what it means (timestamp). So naturally they inserted it into the "literally 1984" meme. The meaning remains the same.
 * In a sponsored Hearthstone stream (vod), DougDoug offered a deal with Twitch Chat; if he wins 3 games in a row, he bans 1751 from chat, if he doesn't, he gifts a large amount of subs (timestamp). After narrowly winning his first match, he loses his 2nd and has to gift all the subs.

Fat Albert

 * Refers to the movie Fat Albert (2004) or its titular protagonist, depending on context.
 * Originates from Twitch Chat's YouTube speedrun (vod/video). Chat uses clickmaps to find a specific thing on YouTube using only clicking, no searching. Doug opened up a private window untouched by the algorithm for this and one of the first recommendations on the home page was Fat Albert from YouTube Movies, and this was what the majority of chat really wanted to see, clicking it whenever it came on screen.
 * When given the opportunity to buy stuff from Amazon to put in Doug's temporary room for RagingCherry (vod/video), Doug gave chat a budget, but they actually started donating more money solely to put into buying as many Fat Albert posters as possible.

Bunny Suit

 * Originates from one of Doug's Mario Maker streams (vod/video) where before he starts, he's asked if he's still the #1 Peggle speedrunner. Doug says no and shows chat the video from the new World Record holder, who, at the end, says "hey, Doug (...) I want to see you in a bunny suit." There is no precedent for this but twitch chat becomes obsessed with it and keeps reminding him to wear a bunny suit, which Doug vehemently denies.
 * After almost a year of bunny suit-related harassment, Doug promises during Rosa's 23rd birthday stream that he will wear a bunny suit if twitch chat raises $25k for MBA, which they easily surpass. Several other goals are met including Parkzer also wearing a bunny suit, Doug and Parkzer eating an entire salmon, and Doug playing Kingdom Hearts in the bunny suit. These are all covered in the same stream about a month later, although Parkzer wears a silly inflatable bunny suit instead of a sexy bunny suit.

Rosa

 * The oldest otter at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Doug hosts a birthday party on stream for her every year, and raises money for the aquarium.
 * 99.9% of the time, when the name Rosa is mentioned, it is referring to the otter.
 * "Rosa Cam" refers to the Sea Otter livestream on MBA's website, which Doug sometimes pulls up on his streams. Despite the moniker "Rosa cam," the livestream is of the sea otter habitat with all the other otters, not just Rosa.

Bees/BZZZZZZZZZ

 * Doug will sometimes play a video of bee sounds instead of stream music. This causes Twitch chat to start buzzing, saying BZZZZZZZZZZZ in chat. They will sometimes buzz even when the bees are not playing, which seems to indicate that they want to listen to bees.
 * Doug will occasionally unleash the bees upon other streamers during collaborations, allowing the bee sounds to play over his mic.

TOS

 * Stands for "terms of service," referring to Twitch's terms of service, specifically banning NSFW content.
 * "TOS" is often spammed in chat whenever anything even tangentially sexual happens, like Doug saying he's taking off his pants because he's hot (temperature wise) even though he still has boxers on and his lower half isn't even shown on stream.

Early Gang

 * Early Gang is a subset of the larger Twitch Chat.
 * Early Gang is a hivemind of the viewers who are there at the very beginning of the stream.
 * They usually make themselves known in the start of the stream by the first TTS message saying "All hail Early Gang!"
 * Some Early Gang members are so early that you can find them in Doug's chat at almost any time, even when he said he wasn't going to stream.
 * Most Early Gang members can be found in Doug's Twitch chat right after he pings early gang on the Discord Server.

Counting

 * Originates from the GTA V "if Twitch Chat counts to 10, I explode" challenge (vod/video)
 * The challenge of the stream was if Doug could drive across the map of GTA 5, but he enabled a Python Script that detects if anyone of his viewers typed a number in chat. It then takes the numbers typed out by viewers and sees if its in correct order of 1 to 10. If it isn't, Doug survives, but if it is, it blows up his car.
 * Initially Doug was trying to win, but he eventually just started helping chat, and being very supportive when they've reached a milestone like a Kindergarten Teacher. The stream then centers around if its possible for chat to count to 10. They do end up doing it in the stream, and erupt in celebration.
 * Before some of Doug streams' starts, Twitch Chat will test how far they can count by typing numbers into the chat after one another, and seeing how far they got when the stream actually starts.
