* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: The Ajimbo game is treated as a bit of a Monkey's Paw, with how it goes viral very quickly. At the same time, as TJ points out at the beginning of the episode, it's just a game made of cardboard pieces. Indeed, it's other people seeing how their personalities lend to the gameplay that gets them addicted.

Though towards the end, when it's believed all the Ajimbo pieces were destroyed, one last piece (the Blue Heron) is mysteriously in one of the kid's pockets, much to their bafflement and horror.

* {{Calvinball}}: Gretchen even points out how inconsistent the rules of Ajimbo are. The basic gameplay seems to be that you create a food chain with the tiles that you have, connecting animals. An Ajimbo is when the chain is complete, and you collect the losers' tiles. The thing is that any animal it seems can make that completion which befuddles Gretchen to no end.
