* Hats! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Detractors of ''Murders at Karlov Manor'' and ''Outlaws of Thunder Junction'' accused the sets of being unrealistc because many characters wore hats matching the theme of the story (Deerstalkers in ''Murders'', Stetsons in ''Outlaws''). Most people pointed out this is far from the strangest thing that's appeared in the setting and a weird thing to get hung up on, and many pushed the joke to sillier spaces (such as claiming the hats were the next multiversal threat after New Phyrexia, or accusing the sets as a get-rich-quick scheme by [[https://scryfall.com/card/und/51/goblin-haberdasher Goblin Haberdasher]].[[/labelnote]]
* Jace and Vraska's convoluted adoption scheme [[labelnote:Explanation (Thunder Junction spoilers!)]]When it was confirmed that Vraska would be appearing in ''Outlaws of Thunder Juction'', many theories arose as to how and why she was there, often with Jace involved since it was implied he had been partially responsible for her de-compleation. One of the popular joke-y ones was that she was after the payday to "help fund her and Jace's convoluted adoption scheme". The phrase only picked up steam when the final chapters revealed that a) there was, in fact, a child inside the fault; b) Jace had been with Vraska the whole time in disguise; and c) that the entire scheme began because the couple's musings about adoption sparked a memory in Jace of him finding the vault years ago and sensing the child inside.[[/labelnote]]

** "What does [[https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=473133 Questing Beast]] do?"[[labelnote:Explanation]]This incredibly powerful creature has a total of ''six'' abilities, some more situational than others. It's so wordy that most opponents may overlook an ability when trying to play around it, thus defying "reading the card explains the card". It's often joked that Questing Beast's text box changes every time you look at it, and there's even a [[https://squirrel-bat.github.io/questingbeast/ fanmade quiz]] that tests your knowledge of its attributes![[/labelnote]]

* [[ReadTheFreakingManual Reading the card explains the card]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]Sometimes shortened to "RTFC." Some interaction questions can be easily explained because the one asking the question skipped over a small bit of text that would provide the answer. Sometimes this line gets quoted ironically in cases where obscure rulings are needed to resolve a situation, or when special printings of a card (such as the Phyrexian text promos) are literally unreadable.[[/labelnote]]
