* BlandNameProduct: It's common to see Converse-like shoes in cartoons, but few come as close to Converse as Charlie's shoes do - they even have the blue star on the ankle patch. The only difference between them and real Converse is that the text is missing from the ankle patches, and that they're square to fit the show's art style.

* ABirthdayNotABreak: Matilda's powers tend to be pretty useless in the first place, but she got the most useless of powers... right [[BirthdayEpisode on her birthday]], out of all days, when her arm turns into a tree branch (yes, that was her power for the day).

* BlessedWithSuck: Matilda's daily powers tend to be very stupid and mostly useless. Even Mortimer tries to make it very clear to Matilda when she just absorbed the coconut's energy, that they're not '''super'''powers, just '''powers'''.

The show is about Matilda, a girl who goes on vacation to stay with Captain Curlybeard, her grandfather, at the titular Paper Port. In it, She finds inside a piano a magic coconut that he once found during his pirate days. She accidentally breaks it and absorbs its powers. As a result, she now has a different power every day, and they mostly tend to be very absurd, such as [[TimeStandsStill stopping time]] by burping or changing the weather by sneezing.
