Easter Eggs and Running Jokes
Throughout the ages, Online Sequencer has had several April Fool's pranks and miscellaneous easter eggs.
Notable Jokes
Megalovania
Megalovania is actually a song that Toby Fox wrote for his first game, the Earthbound Halloween Hack aka MOTHER 4: Cognitive Dissonance. It's used for the final boss, Dr. Andonuts. The song was then reused for Homestuck Vol.6, but it's usually known as the song that plays in UNDERTALE when the player fights Sans during the genocide route. This song is pretty much a running joke anywhere, but what makes it so special here is when a user tries to say the name of the song in chat, it'll get censored. This is probably because someone started a chain with the song title or because of the unreasonable amount of sequences there are on the site that are just transcriptions of the song.

Rule 13
Rule 13 is a made-up rule that implies that any user under the age of 13 cannot use the chat, similarly to Rule 12. It's usually either LucentTear or Fox who enforces this rule, but the actual origin of Rule 13 is currently unknown.
Ever Given
In April of 2021, an image of the Ever Given ship temporarily turned the editor into the Suez Canal. This was a few days after the real ship got stuck in the canal after an error was made in controlling the massive boat.
Candy
The candy page is a near-empty page on the main site featuring nothing but the typical site-wide header and the text "candy?" in magenta.
Lopyt's Sexy Elbows
The user Lopyt has stated multiple times that his elbows are sexy. This has led to a cult following and in turn, the creation of a website praising Lopyt's elbows.
Jacob's daily Poop faecal-related chat messages and subsequent imagery are a long-running phenomenon in both the Discord server and the site.
Salad
Main Article: Salad
On September 3, 2021, LucentTear created a thread on Discord called "salad," the world rejoiced, feasting upon this dish of delight. Many sequels were made in an attempt to attain the same fame the first thread amassed.
Die (Studio Album)
Die (Studio Album) was a humorous "studio album" created by user tbyunomi.
Brad Day
Brad Day is an annual holiday primarily observed by Online Sequencer every September 22nd, celebrating the birthday of Brad Coulter. It was first held in 2017.
i created the arp at the beggining with sitar
This is a meme that originated when user Legendary_ posted Space Travel and left a comment on his own sequence reading "i created the arp at the beggining with sitar" which sparked a meme where ♩♪♫♪♬♩♩ (now banned) posted the comment on nearly all of Legendary_'s sequences, and a chain of comments on the original sequence. There is now a playlist and a forum post containing sequences making fun of the meme.
Get the vaccine
On August 14, 2021, Benvisions posted to the chat "We should all get the vaccine. Safe and effective." He used inspected elements to edit the Online Sequencer title and subtitle from "Online Sequencer: Make music online" to "Get the vaccine: Schedule an appointment online" to encourage users to get a COVID-19 vaccine to stay away from the COVID-19 pandemic. It later got pinged by Fox and subsequently added to Robo's quotes.
Have you listened to your daily [username] sequence yet?
On September 19, 2024, TheUpperDiamond posted to the chat "heya! have you listened to your daily LucentTear sequence yet?" to encourage users to listen to the sequences of LucentTear. He then posts a comment on all the LucentTear sequences he has listened to, asking others this very question. If one were to reply with "no", TheUpperDiamond would consider the action "blasphemous" and request that the user must listen to at least one sequence immediately. This led to others asking the same question, LucentTear included. As of October 12, 2024, 10:00 PM EST, TheUpperDiamond has asked this question 57 times with 10 more instances from other users in the main chat alone.
On October 14, 2024, Benvisions questioned why TheUpperDiamond only the daily LucentTear sequence and not others. This caused TheUpperDiamond to ask "Have you listen to your daily Benvisions sequence yet?" with similar results when Benvisions said no.
