History Fridge / EdEddnEddy

* All throughout the series, every main character goes through various amounts of pain (not slapstick-- ''actual pain'') that seems impossible to achieve anywhere outside this universe. Considering that the Cul-de-Sac doesn't have a hospital, how are these kids ''surviving'' the pain they go through without permanent scars all over their bodies, or more realistically, broken bones?

* The way the Ed’s run are reflections of their personalities. Eddy runs with arms out like he’s trying to grab something, showing his aggressive and greedy nature. Double D has his arms up near his chest, a more defensive position showing his timid nature. Ed runs with his entire upper body at a slant, showing his simplistic nature as he can’t see where he’s going. This also means that he’s looking up at the sky, appropriate for someone who always has his head in the clouds.

** And why don't Ed and Edd get allowances? Well, we've seen in "Brother, Can You Spare an Ed?" that ''Sarah'' gets paid while Ed doesn't, presumably because she's [[ParentalFavoritism Mom and Dad's favorite]]. As for Double D, perhaps his parents are so strict that they want to see him ''work'' for his money (which he actually does, to be fair).

* In the "Big Picture Show"'s opening, the Eds are trapped in Eddy's brother's room and are naturally trying to escape. The problem is every possible alternate entrance is bricked up. In other words, the room is full of false hope. And false hope for sanctuary and protection is what drives them to Eddy's brother. The room was actually a clever metaphor and foreshadowing of Eddy's brother in fact being a vicious bully, who would have made their lives surely worse than the Cul-de-sac kids every could. Furthermore, Ed taking the initiative to use the non-working car to escape, with his own strength and effort, also foreshadows it's ultimately him to take down Eddy's brother and save the day.

* "Once Upon an Ed" features Ed's unusual account where the Kankers have been [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever mutated into giants]] [[NuclearNasty due to eating radioactive mashed potatoes]]. Among their newfound abilities, Marie Kanker has chickens in her armpits that shoot beams that transform whatever they hit into toiletries (which are frightening to [[HatesBaths Ed]]). On one hand, it seems like a random and disgusting power that fits with Ed's overactive imagination and the Kankers' poor hygiene. But considering Ed loves chickens, it also demonstrates just how monstrous the Kankers are from his perspective, as they weaponize and corrupt something he loves.

** The above also gets an additional layer when you also consider that scams for Eddy can also be considered something he does for his own ego as well. It's been noted several times that he could have easily succeeded if he knew when to cut his losses, or focused less on trying to swindle people. So why does he do it anyways? Because his scams are also as much motivated by a subconscious desire on his part to get one over the people who torment him every day, proving to them just how stupid they are in order to satiate his fragile ego. IT also makes sense then that he'd also have so much difficulty maintaining any sort of care or concern for their safety when things go wrong, or deny any responsibility: In his mind, why would he want to do so, when they've done nothing good for him? To him, there's no point in trying to be genuine and do a profitable enterprise for people who hate him. Paradoxically, this also more or less ensured he would never succeed in the long term, since this mindset would only make him even more despised.

* In one episode, Edd states he hates mowing. It sounds like a throwaway line until you realize that for a NeatFreak like Edd, it is a very messy and filthy chore.
** That, and it'd be ''very'' physically demanding for him.

* In ''[[Recap/EdEddNEddyS5E1AllEdsAreOff All Eds are Off]]'', of all the kids, ''Eddy'' has the easiest time keeping [[NoIndoorVoice his quirk]] in check during the bet, only nearly slipping up two times and quickly catching himself before he does. He only ends up losing because he thought he had already won. It'd be easy to say it's because of RuleOfDrama, but given what we know of Eddy from the movie, that he deliberately copied his brother's mannerism because he thought it would make the other kids respect him, it actually makes ''perfect sense'' that Eddy has the easiest time shaking off his quirk, since it's already just an act and likely ''isn't'' how he normally is when not around the kids.
** Also, Eddy isn't as emotionally attached to his quirk like the rest. Ed loves gravy, Edd likes fancy words and feels pride in his intelligence, Rolf loves meat, Kevin hates the Eds deeply and Johnny loves Plank as his best friend. While shouting is a defining trait for Eddy, it doesn't give him much pleasure, if at all.

* "Ed, Edd 'n Eddy's Boo Haw Haw" ends with the kids beating up Eddy and Double D for Ed's violent antics. However, they never bother to target Ed himself. They probably didn't want to risk it considering he just spent the night attacking ''them!''

* How many children were abused by Eddy's brother?

** Crosses over with FridgeHorror a bit, but that same encounter with the Kankers shows the girls initially doting on the Eds, being exploited, expressing irritation at being exploited, kicking the Eds out, and then demanding support raising their "children"[[note]]dolls[[/note]]. When the Eds run away in terror, the Kankers remark that they run away "just like a real men".

* According to WordOfGod The Kankers are 15 (Lee) 14 (Marie) and 13 (May) and they constantly violate a 12 year old Eddy... No wonder why he's afraid of them.
** "I'm a minor, stop!"

* The ShoutOut section on the main page mentioned a particular ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'' reference in the movie that compared Ed to the Scarecrow (looking for a brain), Edd to the Cowardly Lion (looking for courage), and Eddy to the Tin Man (looking for a heart). It seems like a one shot gag at first, but our trio ends up finding exactly what their [=WoO=] counterparts were looking for later at the climax. Check it: when he sees Eddy being beaten mercilessly, Double-D is the one brave enough to call Eddy's Brother out on it, and his ''courage'' is what first captures the neighborhood kid's sympathy. Then Ed, of all people, uses his ''brain'' to figure out how to use momentum to end up stopping the BigBad for good. And most importantly, Eddy ends up having an emotional breakdown in front of everyone, and his ''heart'' is what finally makes the neighborhood kids fully accept the Eds as friends. If even one of them hadn't played their part, the Eds would have never [[EarnYourHappyEnding earned their happy ending.]]
