* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: An in-universe inversion. Eddie bought a video called ''The Furry Honeypot Adventure'' thinking it was porn, but it turns out to be a kid's show with friendly furry animals. Since Eddie's other video purchases are also non-pornographic duds (the seemingly promising ''Big Jugs'' is actually about pottery), they carry on watching it in the hope that it might get racier.

* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: Probably mundane, but it's worth noting that not long after Richie does his rain dance, it does start to rain heavily on what had previously been a bright, sunny day.

* BilingualBonus: The chant Richie uses to for his rain dance (which actually summons some bird shit) is him saying, over and over, "Man with the Butterfly" [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign in French!]]
* ComicallyMissingThePoint:
** Richie and Eddie's landlord ropes them into to minding his shop while he goes to a funeral, which naturally [[DrunkWithPower goes straight to Richie's head]]. He starts proudly going on about how England is "a nation of shopkeepers" and how that makes them better than countries like France and Italy, no doubt unaware that the saying was prominently used by Emperor Napoleon I. And he meant it derisively. While the phrase has been taken as InsultBackfire by Britons smarter than Richie since then, the original meaning is referred to when Eddie skeptically demands to know exactly what's so great about being a nation of shopkeepers in the first place:
-->'''Richie:''' It's what makes us better than everyone else! Because we know... how to run a corner shop.
** Eddie and Richie talk about church:

BirdPoopGag: At the climactic moment of his rooftop rain dance, Richie and Eddie's landlord ropes them into to minding his shop while he goes to gets a funeral, which naturally [[DrunkWithPower goes straight to Richie's head]].

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Letting those maniacs Richie and Eddie look after the shop results in the place getting trashed and looted after they go up to the roof. Mr. Harrison would have done better to just close up for the day.

* DrunkWithPower: Eddie and Richie put in charge of running their landlord's shop when he has to go to a funeral.
