User:Doc von Schmeltwick/List of adult jokes in the Banjo-Kazooie series

Rare is known for the amount of crude humor hidden in their games, some of which, if more blatant, would have affected the age ratings, as deliberately demonstrated in their game . The Banjo-Kazooie games are no exception to this, and are in fact one of the best-known examples. Many of them involve uses of primarily-British slang words that American censors would not recognize. There are even cases where people mistake innocuous things in their games for dirty things, notably the Flower Urns' throaty "Thank you" being commonly misheard as "Fuck you," including during development.

Banjo-Kazooie

 * Mumbo Jumbo's "Oomenacka!" chant is actually a sped-up clip of the phrase "Ooh, me knacker!" "Knacker" is a British slang for testicle.
 * Some of the randomly-chosen facts about Gruntilda contain adult jokes, such as her party trick being "a scary striptease" and her dog's name being "Bigknacka."
 * Upon meeting Trunker, Kazooie remarks "Nice nuts!" to which Banjo is annoyed.
 * Tanktup's name is a play on the phrase "tanked up," which means to be drunk.
 * The Bikini Girl's melons are deliberate intended to invoke giant breasts.

Banjo-Tooie

 * Chief Bloatazin nearly swears upon hearing the Unga Bunga Tribe is responsible for the missing "Sacred Priceless Relic Thingy," only for Kazooie to stop him.
 * Several of Honey B.'s mannerisms are rather suggestive, such as her offer to give Banjo "an extension" and calling him "Big Bear," and to gian the health extension, Banjo throws the Extra Honeycomb Pieces into her groin area.
 * A running gag with Canary Mary is that the treasures she has are in undesirable areas on her person, which eventually Kazooie interrupts her mentioning of in order to not hear.
 * Lord Woo Fak Fak's name is deliberately intended to sound like "Fuck Fuck."
 * Jolly Roger has a number of jokes hinting that he may be homosexual, one of which involves one of his favorite songs being the "Salty Seamen Shanty." It is also hinted that his "partner," Merry Maggie Malpass, may be a cross-dresser.
 * Also related to Jolly, an incorrect answer regarding the menu to his bar refers to a dish called "Cabin Boy's Sausage."
 * The path in front Mumbo's Skull in Terrydactyland as seen from above looks extremely phallic, and when the platforms are raised, it looks as though it is ejaculating.

Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge

 * The name of Momma Clucker sounds similar to the phrase "Mother Fucker."

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

 * Mumbo's coconut farm in Nutty Acres is given the somewhat-suggestive name of "Mumbo's Nuts."
