!!FridgeLogic:
* Chronologically speaking, Olive makes her comment about Huckleberry Finn not being applicable to real life ''after'' Brandon runs away from home with a big hulking black guy. Thus it makes no sense for her to say that that would never happen.
** She's framing the story, so she can add a bit of playful foreshadowing as she pleases.
* It seems very odd that Olive would be sent to the principal's office (by her favorite teacher, no less) for calling a girl a "twat," when the other girl is not reprimanded for calling her a "skank" or a "tramp." Although "twat" ''is'' a bad word, it is usually not seen as very serious in America, whereas the other two are much more common and would definitely garner a stronger reaction.\\
\\
This caused even more confusion outside of the US, particularly to UK viewers, where "twat" simply refers to a stupid and contemptible person.
** In the original, R-rated draft of the script, Olive calls the other girl ''[[CountryMatters that]]''. This was censored and replaced by the most similar four-letter word they could find, so it would be easy for Olive to spell it with her peas later on in the movie.
** For the matter, why isn't the other girl sent to the principal's office? She ''was'' the one who insulted Olive in the first place.
*** I've wondered about it myself. Maybe she's the kid of someone powerful?
!!FridgeHorror:
* If it weren't for Olive's confession to Mr. Griffith, he never would have known that his wife had a painful STI, which she could have easily passed on to him. Here's hoping that Olive warned him about this in time.
* Brandon was being bullied for being gay, to such an extent that he had to pretend to have sex with Olive, and eventually leave town to stop the bullying. We only ever see him with a bloody nose, but that amount of caution implies that he's been through a hell of a lot worse.

Kill This Troper (and natter)


** Since she is narrating after knowing what happened, this troper interpreted it as her deliberately setting a brick joke in her webcast. This would also explain the exact same choice of words.

* If it weren't for [[spoiler: Olive's confession to Mr. Griffith, he never would have known that his wife had an incurable STI, which she could have easily passed on to him.]] Here's hoping that Olive warned him about this in time.
* Chlamydia is actually generally curable with antibiotics. It is VERY common and isn't a life-changing diagnosis. It is like getting Strep Throat in you r sex organs. Yes, it can be painful & untreated can lead to other problems (infertility, cysts on ovaries, etc) it still goes away with proper medical treatment.
