BikdipOnABus
BikdipOnABus, AKA Joshua "Jish" Adams, is a Let's Player on YouTube, clocking over 1,400 videos. He started off in 2006 doing Super Mario 64 Tasks on GameFAQs, and managed to gain a large viewership when he did a Very Hard Mode play through of I Wanna Be the Guy. He has created 3 games using Zelda Classic; Bikdip's Adventure, Mitch, and Bikdip's Adventure 2. The Bikdip's Adventure series is based upon the 'Strange Creatures' series based on Pokémon he and a friend created in middle school.
Most of his Let's Plays are done with a gimmick. Such as beating Pikmin without resetting, and the 3D Mario Games without any coins.
Has recently started Let's Playing again, after moving out with his girlfriend, Brynna, who also does LPs on March 30th.

BikdipOnABus provides examples of the following tropes:
- Ascended Fanboy: Started watching Brynna's videos, eventually becoming her boyfriend after a while.
- Has his own in TimStarz03, who has been in several of Bikdip's videos, and vice versa.
- And I Must Scream: His 10000 subscriber special is funny, until you realise that Jish and Brynna were concious the "entire time".
- Annoying Younger Sibling: Six of them. Except for maybe one.
- Catch Phrase: Many, including:
- Bagel.
- Beefs.
- Stuff.
- And it becomes a very different game.
- And we go all like a-herp!
- Deadpan Snarker: He shows shades of this, especially during his Super Mario RPG Let's Play.
- Do Not Call Me "Paul": Much prefers his pseudonyms "Jish" and "Bikdip" over his real name, Josh/Joshua.
- Oddly-Named Sequel 2: Electric Boogaloo: Referenced in the subtitle of Bikdip's Adventure 2
- Flat Joy: Almost every video
- Let's Play
- Million-to-One Chance: In Pokémon Emerald Parts 45 + 46 (one big segment) he says around the halfway point that he's tired of seeing Tentacool, and goes on a small tangent saying he'll see a shiny Tentacool. At the end of the episode...it happens: a shiny Tentacool shows up, and he breaks down rambling about the impossibility of it. He then names it Karma.
- Old Shame: Despite being a relatively decent game, he frequently considers Bikdip's Adventure 1, his first Zelda Classic quest, to be far inferior to his other games.
- One of Us: Makes a few references to TV Tropes, even met his current girlfriend through us!
- Self-Imposed Challenge
- Beating Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy without getting any coins. Then inverted by going back and getting all coins
- Beat Pikmin while avoiding resetting.
- Beat Pikmin 2 in 8 days
- Played through Bikdips Adventure 1 with minimum health
- Did a minimalist run on Bikdips Adventure 2.
- Did a run of Metroid Prime with only 23% of the game's items
- The Stoic: Almost every video his barely changes vocals.
- Not So Stoic: When sufficiently mad, he'll blow up.
- Tempting Fate: see Million to One Chance up above.
- Verbal Tic: Also many, including:
- Bagel.
- Owh (when feigning being shocked).
