* OldShame: Appearing as themselves in Series/SaturdayNightLive spinoff film ''Film/ItsPat'' could qualify. It was the first feature film directed by Adam Bernstein, who had previously directed the "Push th' Little Daisies" video, and their appearance was said to be done as a personal favor.
** Their pre-''[=GodWeenSatan=]'' releases are universally panned by fans and critics alike because, as teens who just started making music, their songwriting and technical talent simply weren't there yet. Like many beginning guitarists, Dean had noticeable trouble changing chords and the extent of their humor was basically [[WordSaladHumor Gene wailing incoherent nonsense]]. The band themselves seems to dislike their music from this era as well, considering they took these albums out of print and kept only one song from this period in their live setlist: "You Fucked Up", which became the first song on ''[=GodWeenSatan=]''.



* TrollingCreator: On the WTF Podcast with Creator/MarcMaron, Aaron admitted that, while he enjoys having an actual fanbase, part of him misses the early years when they would open up for other bands, confusing and annoying people who came to see the headliner. On the same show, he admitted he was a little upset when his manager dispelled the rumors that he was transgender because he thought it was hilarious how wrong they were.

** ''God Ween Satan'' was so low budget that they ended up recording at least one song, "Birthday Boy", over a bootleg cassette tape of ''Music/PinkFloyd: Live at Pompeii'' - thus the song is [[{{bookends}} bookended]] by lo-fi snippets of Pink Floyd's "Echoes".

* {{Corpsing}}:
** Happens occasionally on some of their more lo-fi albums. For example, near the beginning of "Dr. Rock," you can hear Gene laughing and saying "Let's do it again."
** Maybe the most noticeable on "Blackjack" and "Right to the Ways and the Rules of the World."
