History Webcomic / PennyAndAggie

* CatSmile: Aggie [[http://www.pennyandaggie.com/index.php?p=694 here]].

* HomoeroticDream: Quite a lot of them. Penny alone has had ''three''. After Sara plants the seed in Penny's head that her rivalry with Aggie is the result of HoYay UnresolvedSexualTension, Penny has a dream with her then-boyfriend Duane ''and'' Aggie. Later, her mental sequence in which she imagines possible futures for herself about her decision to run away with Rich ends with a future Penny and Aggie living together and clearly in a relationship. Finally, Penny has ''another'' dream entirely about potentially hooking up with Aggie, in which Aggie and Lisa are naked and her gay friends are egging her on. Outside of Penny's confused sexuality, other characters have had a few of their own. Stan dreams of how he might be sleeping with Michelle only because it's the closest he's gotten to sleeping with his idol Rich. Sarah had a day dream about Lindsay Lohan before she finally came out of the closet. Aggie has a recurring dream about falling in love with a female mannequin that seems to represent Penny.

A spin-off/sequel starring Sara and Lisa, ''Webcomic/{{QUILTBAG}}'', began running on the ''Penny and Aggie'' website in October 2011 a few weeks after the conclusion of its predecessor, then moved to its own [[http://quiltbag.keenspot.com subdomain]] on Website/{{Keenspot}} in January 2012. The series was cancelled rather quickly, thus ending this continuity.

* AlphaBitch: Penny is seen this way by Aggie early on and the Omega Sisters. Meg apparently ''was'' one of these before Penny took her out.

''[[http://www.pennyandaggie.com/ Penny and Aggie]]'' is a HighSchool -centric [[TeenDrama Teen]] {{Dramedy}} BettyAndVeronica pastiche with LesYay and a healthy dose of that Creator/TCampbell (of ''Webcomic/{{Fans}}'' fame) weirdness.

* HomoeroticDream: Quite a lot of them. Penny alone has had ''three''. After Sara plants the seed in Penny's head that her rivalry with Aggie is the result of LesYay {{UST}}, Penny has a dream with her then-boyfriend Duane ''and'' Aggie. Later, her mental sequence in which she imagines possible futures for herself about her decision to run away with Rich ends with a future Penny and Aggie living together and clearly in a relationship. Finally, Penny has ''another'' dream entirely about potentially hooking up with Aggie, in which Aggie and Lisa are naked and her gay friends are egging her on. Outside of Penny's confused sexuality, other characters have had a few of their own. Stan dreams of how he might be sleeping with Michelle only because it's the closest he's gotten to sleeping with his idol Rich. Sarah had a day dream about Lindsay Lohan before she finally came out of the closet. Aggie has a recurring dream about falling in love with a female mannequin that seems to represent Penny.

* TimePassesMontage: Parodied over several strips of Penny standing stock still until the heat death of the universe after Sara informs her of her belief that Penny and Aggie are experiencing {{UST}}.
* TransparentCloset: Sara, though only to Penny, Lisa, Cyndi, and Katy-Ann - everyone else was completely oblivious until being told even after her gay makeover, which included ''a [[{{Anvilicious}} Venus symbol necklace]]''.

* ThemeNaming: [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Sara and Michelle, Nick and Charisma]], [[MarvelUniverse Stan and Jack]], [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Fred and Daphne]].

* LastMinuteHookup: Plenty in the epilog, which takes place six years after the final high school strip and thus provides ''plenty'' of time for the characters to mix and mingle with each other and otherwise.

* HarsherInHindsight: Stan's campaign slogan for class president, in 2006, is [[https://pixietrixcomix.com/penny-and-aggie/2006-03-10 "Make This School Great Again".]]

A spin-off/sequel starring Sara and Lisa, ''Webcomic/{{QUILTBAG}}'', began running on the ''Penny and Aggie'' website in October 2011 a few weeks after the conclusion of its predecessor, then moved to its own [[http://quiltbag.keenspot.com subdomain]] on Website/{{Keenspot}} in January 2012.

* AllThereInTheManual: Someone reading the comic alone and not also following along on the forums where the author, an ''enormous'' fan of the "ShowDontTell" principle, explains some pretty important plot points that could otherwise be lost. This is particularly noticeable in "The New Reality" where, among other crucial details, the very name of Sara's reality show (''Hot Lights'') appears only in the forum, and only after someone asked Campbell what it was.
** A number of characters that didn't show up in the series finale had their epilogs dealt with during "Ask T" posts on the forums. Though with a sequel running, there's always a chance that some of these characters could potentially get a proper shout-out in ''Quiltbag''.

* BeautifulAllAlong: Karen.

%%* GirlPosse: Penny's, Meg's, and Karen's.

** Meg and Samantha for their roles in Karen's schemes and Sam's role later in Cyndi's.

* LaxativePrank: Penny and Aggie destroy Karen's reputation by putting laxatives in the alcoholic popsicles she distributes at her parties.
* LetsWaitAwhile: Marshall's attitude to Karen's constant badgering him for sex. Some of the fanbase turned on him for not instantly sleeping with his severely messed up girlfriend simply because she wanted him to, to the point where a fanart comic depicted him as unwilling to have sex even when they were married.
* LipstickLesbian: Daphne.

* MakeoverMontage: Karen.
* ManipulativeBastard: Karen's role in the Popsicle Wars. After that story, Cyndi takes over her role.

* DanBrowned: Fans with experience with Islam and Scientology have pointed out some ''major'' errors in T's depiction of them. T's response was that he only showed two individuals; he felt he'd portrayed the Scientologist as clearly insane, while the Muslim student is still closeted and only a recent convert trying to learn the religion on his own time.

* MeaningfulEcho: "pretty people get to do what they want!" Karen, when [[https://pixietrixcomix.com/penny-and-aggie/2004-12-27 she finishes appropriating Penny and Aggie's social power, having gotten them to give her makeovers]], and [[https://pixietrixcomix.com/penny-and-aggie/2009-03-11 when Penny and Aggie successfully destroy her popularity at the end of the Popsicle Wars arc]].

* BeautifulAllAlong: Subverted with Karen.

* FreudianExcuse: The characters who commit the most morally reprehensible acts (Karen, Helen, Charlotte) had unhappy childhoods in one way or another. Defied with Cyndi, who appears to have loving, accepting parents.

* KeepingTheEnemyClose: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] and [[DefiedTrope defied]] when [[AlphaBitch Meg]], after humiliating Penny in front of a boy she likes, invites her and her friends to a SlumberParty. Penny accepts, explaining afterward to her friends that Meg is practicing this trope, but that she plans to use it against Meg. At the party, Penny takes embarassing candid photos of her and shares them with her classmates, thereby ending Meg's reign as queen bee.

** And the final arc "Summer of Youth," in which multiple characters are exploring their sexuality.
