Break for meeeeee! Is from a Brad, Kyle, Brandon, and Huber stream on January 5th 2016 of the game Amplitude from the late GT days. During this stream they play a level of the game based on a song titled "Break for Me". The phrase "Break for me" was said by the crew as an imitation of Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs. The version of the phrase we know and love is a take on Christian Bale's "Good for you!" from his meltdown on the set of Terminator Salvation. This deviation from the original Buffalo Bill "Brake for me" happened when Bosman was "bailing" from his lane around 44:15 in the video. This in turn led to the group reminiscing about and reciting said meltdown. Eventually at 56:00 in Ruaidhri18 in chat asks for "Break for me" in Christian Bale voice. And thus the EZA saying "Break for meeeeee!" was born.
Here is a link to a video of said stream starting from the selection of the track "Brake for Me": https://youtu.be/htqeDIuZ5iA?t=8m23s
Around 47:10 in this video someone suggests the name "Cup of Jones" for a solo Brandon show also.

"Tom Brady" - Kyle Bosman's name for the snowball tossing snowmen in Banjo-Kazooie.
And what's the name of the little toy that plays the Love & Respect theme again?

A suggestion to make the list more concise, you don't necessarily need to add everything. If a term is unfunny and/or barely used, it's probably safe to skip it.
-
@Oscillator Great suggestion, will definitely put the most used ones on top. I'm not the best person to create this list since I don't regularly watch the streams expect the occasional group stream archive so I might miss the good ones.

It's Rufus.

Maybe there should be an EZA wikia page where you guys could fill out EZA lore ?

This would need a dedicated maintainer or group of maintainers, but it would be the best option for potential breadth.
Also, here's the properly formatted link to the Banjo-Kazooie video:

Add another one to the Bosman v Wozniak dictionary - Shambozo. xD

Added some more stuff and sorted the post a bit. :)

I'm watching the RE7 playthrough stream, and Brad and Kyle mention that "Touch water" advice Kyle apparently got from chat on some of his own streams or something. I've heard that before, but I don't have the big picture. He was stuck and that was the only advice and it angered him? What was the occasion exactly, anyone?
-
@Sentinel-Beach I heard him mention that in another video recently too but I don't know where. I do know he just hates nondescript hints/guides, at least partially because with chat being behind something like touch water or turn left might not be applicable anymore. The opposite of that type of advice is Nintendo Power advice, or something like that, since when you read it in a magazine they have to completely set the stage for it to be any value.
On a side note, make a loud noise came from an episode of easy update where Ian and Huber played Stifled. https://youtu.be/LtWLNDqNMr4?t=2m52s
-
@Sentinel-Beach He explained on... the Gundam stream, maybe? I can't quite recall where because of how much I consume EZA content, but I do know the context! They were playing FFVII and were at the part on the snowy mountain where you can get lost pretty easily. Chat was trying to help and someone just typed, "touch water," and Kyle lost it due to just how unhelpful that hint was.
-
Yeah, that was it, thanks. I even watched that too. The problem seems to be the same with me: you see and hear so much from the guys that it becomes hard to pinpoint the origins of some things and conversations. A really positive "problem", still. :)
-
Don't forget Take a Knee. Not that I know where it came from originally, but it is great advice.
-
@Inustar I want to say it originally was when Kyle was letting people play Batman VR and told them to take a knee in the beginning when you are just standing on a building in order to feel more like Batman. Great advice indeed!
