* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: The notes might be different, but the tune playing out while Abner and Ewalt think is otherwise identical to the ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}'' "Think!" music.

''Out West''

Ren and Stimpy are outlaws hired by a couple of cowboys named Abner and Ewalt.


''Rubber Nipple Salesmen''

The duo are ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin

!!''Out West'' contains examples of...
* AnimationBump: A lesser example than usual, since Carbunkle was on a tight budget.
* {{Bowdlerization}}: On BBC Two in the UK, the ending song "The Lord Loves a Hanging," is edited out, as the BBC censors don't find hanging suicides funny (and are afraid that teatime viewers will off themselves this way, as they felt the song made hanging out to be "fun and risk-free").
* DelayedReaction: Abner and Ewalt are pretty slow.
* GhostTown: Abner and Ewalt are the only people in town, on account of they had everyone else hanged.
* HorseOfADifferentColor: Ren and Stimpy ride into town on chickens.
* TheManTheyCouldntHang: Ren and Stimpy. The former is too light and just sways in the breeze. The latter has no neck.
* NothingLeftToDoButDie: With no one else to hang, Abner and Ewalt decide to just hang each other.
* TheRustler: Ren and Stimpy are hired to be horse thieves, just so Abner and Ewalt could have someone to hang.
* SurroundedByIdiots: Mr. Horse, in this installment at least, is the OnlySaneMan, and is bitterly aware of that fact.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: The notes might be different, but the tune playing out while Abner and Ewalt think is otherwise identical to the ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}'' "Think!" music.
* VillainAntagonist: Ren and Stimpy are pretty much this since they were hired to be villains so the sheriffs could hang them.

!!''Rubber Nipple Salesmen'' contains examples of...
* BottleEpisode: Because of budget constraints with Spumco and Nickelodeon, this episode (according to John Kricfalusi) is considered this, as the only scenes in this cartoon have Ren and Stimpy in their trucks and on the doorsteps of the houses they visit (and the ending where they ride bulls into the sunset).
* BrokenRecord: Stimpy, briefly, while trying to get Ren's attention.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: In this one, Mr. Horse is very much ''not'' the OnlySaneMan. Possibly he's even AxCrazy, though we never get any details on that "[[NoodleIncident mistake]]" he once made.
* GainaxEnding: The episode ends with Ren and Stimpy making their sale... and getting kicked out of the house and on the backs of two bulls who ride them into the sunset. [[FlatWhat What the hell?]]
* ShoutOut: Ren and Stimpy riding off into the sunset on two bulls is a homage to a similar situation used in the original Film/TheThreeStooges shorts.
* SquashedFlat: Ren is hit by the Fire Chief with a shovel (he thought it was a [[FantasticRacism circus midget]]), and is left a stain on the stoop.
