'''Harry:''' [[IncrediblyLamePun Conservatives get real upset.]]

* The official trailer for ''Peace Talks'' is first released in mid-March 2020. On April 1st, an alternate cut is released showing Harry now wearing a hat. This refers to the continual joke that Harry is given a classic Private Investigator hat on all the covers but doesn't usually wear one in the story. However it's not just one hat. Every scene it changes to a different hat. A partial list includes [[Franchise/IndianaJones the Indiana Jones famous hat]], a sombrero, [[Literature/HarryPotter the Sorting Hat]], [[Literature/SherlockHolmes a deerstalker]], [[Creator/DrSeuss the Cat in the Hat's tall red-and-white striped hat]], [[Characters/DoctorWhoEleventhDoctor a fez]], and lastly, one of the only hats he has worn in the books, [[Advertising/TheBurgerKing a Burger King crown]]. The trailer ends with how ''"Peace Toques"'' and then [[spoiler:''"Hattle Ground"'']] will be released later this year.

* Funny/StormFront

** Additionally, Butcher has gone on record stating that he was "[[TrollingCreator giggling maniacally]]" when writing the final scene in ''Changes''.

** After Darth Wannabe boasts about how Harry defeated the hex he and his associates had placed upon the woman he'd just finished helping last week, Harry remarks in surprise that there was a curse at ''all''. He then muses that he though the woman was just suffering from some bad feng shui and only did the ritual cleansing to make her feel better.

* Harry is less than pleased of getting summoned for jury duty.

* During Arturo, the porn director's profile, Bob starts pestering Harry about getting him some videos for "research." later on, in Lara's profile, near where it mentions she acted in porn, Bob starts asking Harry again why he never picked up the videos.

'''Harry:''' I'm just saying, there's no reason the magic can't be portrayed at least a little more accurately, is there?\\
'''Andi:''' Again with ''this'' discussion. ''(sighs)'' I mean, I know he's the actual wizard and all, but Christ.\\
'''Kirby:''' ''(glumly)'' It's like taking a physicist to a ''Franchise/StarTrek'' movie.

** And the AntiClimax when the grenade thrown into Harry's apartment turns out to just be a harmless smoke bomb.

* Anastasia walks in while Harry is trying to give CPR to Molly -- who is ''topless'' at the time -- and Harry starts panicking and stammering that it is '''[[NotWhatItLooksLike not]]''' [[NotWhatItLooksLike what it looks like]]. Luccio looks around and bursts into laughter, saying that she has no clue ''what'' it's even supposed to look like and simply ''must'' know how it happened.

* Thomas provides the best description of Harry, ever.

* Harry commenting on how Dr. Fabio could have named the school "St. Mark's Academy for the Resourceful and Talented", [[FunWithAcronyms thus making the acronym "SMART" instead of "SMAGT".]] And then proceeds to use the word to trash Fabio's shrine.
* Just the fact that Dr. Fabio was using black magic and leeching off Irwin's life force... [[SkewedPriorities just so he could grow some hair]].

** Preceded directly by this gem of a reaction to the destruction of said cheap door:

'''Irwin:''' Internetty. I guess you aren't.

-->'''Connie:''' Wait. A… what? Am I going to [[Literature/{{Twilight}} sparkle or something]]?\\

* The wrapping paper to Harry's gift from Kringle has Mouse's grinning face on it as part of the pattern.

-->'''Marcone:''' There’s another person I could go to. But even if he believed me and agreed to the job, he would complicate it unbearably. We’d be at war with Canada within the week. ''Somehow.''

* The story is set approximately two weeks after the events of ''Battle Ground'' and the castle still has massive damage, some of which is just tarped over. The Little Folk think that the tarps are tapestries, and disdain their shoddy workmanship and plain design....

'''Molly:''' It is going to work. We'll breeze right in. [[DistractedByTheSexy The Rack]] will be with us.\\

* The fact that [[spoiler:Lara Raith, much like Marcone who put Harry in jury duty in the first place, perfectly knew what to expect of her on-and-off enemy/ally and purposely sent the young succubus Tania on a mission that would make cross paths with him ''fully expecting'' her to [[BreakTheHaughty lose the confrontation and be taken down a peg or two by the wizard]]]] is pretty amusing in its own {{Genre Savv|y}}-iry way.
