* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: All the female characters fall victim to this, but Mickey gets it the worst. In the first two episodes alone she gets run over, falls off a bannister and knocks herself out cold, gets her face slashed up by an owl and gets choked and hit with a hammer by an angry loan shark.

* TraumaCongaLine: Played for laughs, but Ben goes through mental trauma at seven years old that war vets might have trouble handling. He is constantly killing his pets by accident as he doesn't understand the concept of mortality. He sees his aunt getting shot, parents getting arrested, Jimmy getting his teeth removed with pliers by his brother, getting a large tattoo on his back at the prison, pushed to act like a girl as Mick does not want to commute, watching 18+ movies days in a row and regularly is witness to extreme violence.

He doesn't seem to be affected (and is especially [[AmbiguousGenderIdentity okay with presenting as a girl]]) but it might well mess him up later.

* Buttmonkey: While maybe not in the true sense of the form, he is basically being shaped to be a sociopath by accident. From seeing 18+ horror movies days in a row, being given lights and matches and being given an infinity supply of pets that he accidentally kills because he don't understands mortality.

* SmallNameBigEgo: Believes herself to the epitome of what it means to be a popular, beautiful girl in school, surrounded by droves of adoring followers. The truth is, she's at least less than that, and when she accidentally unveils just how massive her ego is over a video feed at a Halloween party, everyone regards her with disgust afterwards and she is reduced to infantile rants about her greatness; if she wasn't just delusional before, she was then.

* AmbiguousGenderIdentity: In Season 1 Ben's happy to present as a girl while getting into an all-girls school (Mickey says he's trans as a ploy for this) and likes wearing dresses. Sabrina and Mickey later both also describe him as genderfluid. Ben's only ten, and doesn't comment on this.

It's no longer ambiguous.


* {{Ambiguously Bi}}: Sabrina has been shown to admire the female form multiple times. For example, when she was enamored with the beautiful escorts at the hotel and when she goes to the [[spoiler: strip club with Chip to meet his degenerate dad,]] she watches the dancers with interest.
** [[spoiler: Pretty much confirmed in "The Juice".]]
