Your Head A-Splode: Cited to be how the Ghost Pirate in Episode 657, "Terror Trio" lost his head... which was caused by him sneezing without shutting his eyes. Friendly Rivalry: Stampy and his Minecraft Helpers all share this, and all the minigame competitions function as a way for them to duke it out. Outside of the minigame arenas, they are quite close and function well as a team, both in building and in battle.

Void Between the Worlds: Other than the Void of Minecraft itself, Stampy briefly encounters HitTheTarget there after travelling there by portal, in Episode 658, "Mirror World". My belly: I’ve eaten too much bread and drunk too much wine over the last few years, so none of my suits do up. Maya Angelou was one of America’s most acclaimed poets and storytellers, as well as a celebrated educator and civil rights activist. In ‘Come, And Be My Baby’, Angelou beautifully captures how overwhelming modern life can be and the comfort that love can provide during times of hardship — even if only for a moment. 2. "Bird-Understander" by Craig Arnold These are your own words your way of noticing and saying plainly of not turning away from hurt Shaggy Dog" Story: Episode 680, "Turny Journey", ends up becoming one, with Stampy falling into the Void and losing the Elytra that took him three episodes to get.

15. "Rondel of Merciless Beauty" by Geoffrey Chaucer 

Foregone Conclusion: Tying in with the Spoiler Title, Episode 541 was titled "I Lost". You do the math from there. In case you want another testament to this series' length and stable presence, it ending was considered notable enough for the BBC to make an article about it. Saving Christmas: Adding to the above episodes, Episode 154, "Saving Santa", involves Santa crashing his sleigh and Stampy has to heal him. This also happens in Episode 261, "Christmas Rescue", but is overshadowed by the recovery of Lee Bear.

Another fan gushed: "Sheamie is going down in the late late toy show hall of fame. a TRUE icon. #LateLateToyShow." Darkness Equals Death: Like most other Minecraft worlds, hostile mobs spawn in dark places and especially at night. HTT and Veeva Dash invoke this in Episode 683, "Darkness" to cause a huge number of googlies to spawn in the middle of the day, likely to distract Stampy and/or make them do their dirty work to kill him — which would be a distraction anyway due to respawning mechanisms existing. Thankfully, Stampy is, for once, Genre Savvy enough to figure out their plan and get his dogs to safety before anything drastic happens. Spinning Out of Here: A variation. How Stampy's teleporter works involve him pressing a button to reappear in a different teleporter, i.e. a bit like a lift/elevator. The teleportation motion involves the user spinning in a circle. Greasy Spoon: According to Episode 101, "Chubby Kitty", the 'Kitty Kitchen' built for the 'Fish Me a Dish' minigame is said to be styled like "an old American diner".

37. "Poem To An Unnameable Man" by Dorothea Lasky

Grim Up North: According to the directions on the laser satellite in Episode 455, "Revenge", HTT's fortress is to the northwest of the bulk of the SLW, but this is proven otherwise in the world in actuality (unless, of course, the sun rises in the west in the SLW), where their world are actually in the southeast of the world upon closer inspection. Sadistic Choice: Episode 760, "Impossible Choice", is clearly titled in the sense of this trope. The eponymous choice is between Barnaby's life and the Lovely World, both of which are essentially Stampy's heart and soul. Or in other words? Sacrifice his longtime companion's life, or leave the community he'd built from the ground up for a decade and never return. Stampy manages to haggle it down to just the Funland, though. Then when Stampy explains the pun note "I see" (i.e. I look at), windows made of ice, and opticians going "I see, I see" during appointments, Amy jumps into the hole again. Episode 212, "Fight in Flight": Before the unarmed gentlemen's duel on the bridge, Stampy tells HTT to throw his sword off the edge of his hot-air balloon, but neglected to tell him to throw off his bow as well. Naturally, HTT tries to cheat during the duel using his bow and arrows. In Episode 124, "Sinking Feeling", "the Kraken" note Squid shows up to help Stampy and Lee in the naval battle against HitTheTarget.

Distress Ball: Stampy is handed this in Episode 541, "I Lost", when he decides to try to spy on HitTheTarget in his helicopter and ends up getting shot down with an Anti-Air cannon. However, if this trope were averted, he would have still returned home to a missing Barnaby and would have to launch a rescue mission for him regardless. Stampy: […] Think about using materials that aren't really designed for what they are meant to do, you know, do something with… furnaces or something to make things look pretty. World of Funny Animals: Downplayed. About half the cast has an anthropomorphic creature as a skin. The others usually have a more human appearance, e.g. WeeWeeGaming, Chloe and Finnball. Sheamie then said: "After today when I met you I was thinking to myself I bet you didn't know you had something in common with a seven-year-old from the country in Clare." Stampy: I was actually uh- speaking to Lee before we started the video, and he was saying about, ah- he was quite scared about growing the melon, so I told him that he should grow a pear.Meaningless Villain Victory: Implied with Hit the Target’s victory in the final episode. As Stampy surrenders his Lovely World to Target, he warns owning it will never bring him as much joy as it brought Stampy and his helpers building it and making memories. After the montage of Stampy gathering up all his helpers and animal friends to head off, and the final shot of Veeva Dash catching up with them, it becomes increasingly clear (but not outright stated or shown) that Hit the Target being completely alone and having a totally barren world all to himself isn’t a very satisfying win. Stampy's House is a Big Fancy House made of oak wood and sandstone, and there is a large tower with water streams connecting the house with the farm and the lake, which is also home to his not-so-Secret Base. It also has an underground Nether portal and if Wonder Quest was anything to go by, there is also a portal to the world of Wonderberg in the basement. It also happens to be the largest house in the neighbourhood, especially when most of his Helpers either sleep at his house, especially in earlier episodes, or have far more humble abodes, e.g. Polly's stable. Quirky Town: This applies to the entire world sans the corner controlled by HitTheTarget, especially since a good chunk of the population are quite odd as well. For one, the animal population far outnumbers the human population, and the Town is filled with bizarrchitecture.

It is implied that the Other Stampy from Episode 658, "Mirror World" is this too, judging by what he named the buildings in the Mirror World. Stable Time Loop: There is one between Episode 92, "The First Cake" and Episode 100, "Cat to the Future". According to the Halloween Episode 243, "Ghost Stories", Stampy's dead dogs would rise from their graves every night to dance in the Clubhouse. Threatening Shark: In the minigame 'Water Rush', the player operating the obstacle panel in the sushi restaurant usually dresses as a shark, and sets off the obstacles which the "dolphins" have to dodge or risk falling into the water below.Simple, yet Awesome: Stampy's bedroom has a fairly simple design, even for something first built in 2012, but has since become one of the most iconic and easily recognizable builds in the Minecraft community. Its destruction by HitTheTarget in Episode 733, "Christmas Invasion", sparked a lot of outrage. Hurricane of Puns: Practically half the buildings in the Town have a pun based on their names and sometimes even designs, if not Added Alliterative Appeal or Rhymes on a Dime. Christmas Town: The North Pole, Santa's place of residence and where Polly Reindeer hails from. Stampy visits this place in Episode 367, "North Pole" and Episode 686, "Santa's Surprise".
