* NoYou: At the beginning of the episode, the title duo are called in the director, who tearfully proclaims that he will hate to leave them. Ren smugly assumes that the director was fired, only for the director to quickly retort that it's ''him'' and Stimpy who are getting canned.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** Ren reads a "corn" magazine called ''Husk'', which Stimpy steals later to look at for himself.
** At one point, Stimpy looks at the Husk magazine and grows hair on his back. One of the old wives' tales about masturbation is that it'll put hair on your palms.

Added DiffLines:

'''I Was a Teenage Stimpy''': Ren and Stimpy deal with the onset of Stimpy's puberty.

'''Who's Stupid Now?''': To keep their show on the air, Ren and Stimpy have to switch their roles - Ren becomes the fat idiot and Stimpy the skinny jerk.

!!"I Was a Teenage Stimpy" contains examples of:
* BrattyTeenageDaughter: Stimpy becomes a parody of this trope, from hogging the phone to putting up a sign up that's obviously a play on "No Boys Allowed" in his room.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** Ren reads a "corn" magazine called ''Husk'', which Stimpy steals later to look at for himself.
** At one point, Stimpy looks at the Husk magazine and grows hair on his back. One of the old wives' tales about masturbation is that it'll put hair on your palms.
* HappierHomeMovie: Ren watches old home movies of him playing baseball with a younger Stimpy.
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: When Ren goes to smack Stimpy with an oar, he remarks "I should have done this back in scene 36."
* PainfulTransformation: Stimpy as he goes through puberty.
* ParentalSubstitute: Ren is this for Stimpy, at least in this episode.
* RidingIntoTheSunset: Stimpy, upon becoming an adult, flies off into the sun at the end. Literally.
* ShoutOut: Stimpy's high school friends are overgrown versions of [[Franchise/ArchieComics Archie and Jughead]].
* SoapPunishment: Ren sticks the whole bar into Stimpy's mouth for talking back to him.
* TeensAreMonsters: Stimpy takes this to an almost literal degree with his metamorphosis and his rare grasp of the JerkassBall.
* YouAreGrounded: Ren says this to Stimpy for hanging out with delinquents. Coupled with "[[GroundedForever Forever]]".

!!"Who's Stupid Now?" contains examples of:
* CatsAreMean: Stimpy as he switches roles with Ren.
* DogsAreDumb: Ren as he switches roles with Stimpy.
* DramaticThunder: When Ren realizes he is now the "fat loveable idiot" and gives a triumphant maniacal laugh, lightning and thunder go off in the background.
* ExecutiveMeddling: An in-universe example. The show's ratings are low, so the execs change Ren and Stimpy's roles, with Stimpy being the skinny jerk and Ren as the fat idiot.
* HumiliationConga: As if his dream of being the "fat loveable idiot" turning into a nightmare isn't the worst of his troubles, Ren (who is now the fat idiot) gets ragged on by his boss and Stimpy (who is now the skinny jerk).
* NoYou: At the beginning of the episode, the title duo are called in the director, who tearfully proclaims that he will hate to leave them. Ren smugly assumes that the director was fired, only for the director to quickly retort that it's ''him'' and Stimpy who are getting canned.
* PersonalitySwap: When Ren and Stimpy switch places, Ren's intelligence decreases while Stimpy becomes meaner.
