!Tropes for the series:
* BigPrickBigProblems: Ron and Peter are two slackers making money by testing new drugs for a pharma compnay. The pilot episode sees one of them take a pill that causes him to massively enhance his penis size... to the point that he needs a blood transfusion to get an erection.
* OneWordTitle: ''Herfume''.
* ProphetEyes: The guys after being temporarily blinded by pineapple shampoo.
* {{Tagline}}: "Life can be a bitter suppository to swallow".
* TestSubjectForHire: The show has Ron and Peter going through life being paid for being human test subjects. This tends to lead to AmusingInjuries and borderline BodyHorror, though it's always played for laughs. One episode has them test out an appliance instead, which still had negative consequences because AIIsACrapshoot.
* ViciousVac: One episode, "Vac Attack", has the Ron and Peter testing out a military vacuum cleaner imbued with artificial intelligence, which becomes more and more aggressive as it deals with their slovenliness, until it sets out to kill them and must be destroyed with their giant collected hairball.
