** "The Day" has a bit where Sylvia tries to sneak out of the Skullship's locker room with a sleeping Wander and winds up having to fight all the Watchdogs there. She is disgusted when she sees that the Watchdogs directly in front of her aren't wearing towels. Her demand that they [[ModstyTowel put towels on]] before the fight continues even has the Watchdogs initially misinterpret the instruction as wearing the towels on their heads rather than around their waists.

** In "The Battle Royale" Wander's plans to set Hater and Dominator up as a couple fail (almost) entirely. 1) Battlefields are not especially romantic, 2) Lord Dominator has no interest in romance, and 3) Lord Hater is not aware that Lord Hater [[spoiler:SamusIsAGirl is a lady]] until the end of the episode. [[spoiler: Hater does become obsessed with Dominator for a while, so it wasn't a ''complete'' failure.]]

Added DiffLines:

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: This happens with surprising frequency.
** In "The Liar", instead of accepting Wander's help without question, the mother bird attacks any time Wander gets too close.
** In "The Greater Hater" we see what happens when a serious villain in placed into a silly space cartoon. [[spoiler: It doesn't go well for the silly characters.]]
*** We also find out that Lord Hater has been wasting so much time, energy, and resources trying to defeat Wander that his empire has fallen apart. Not only are other villains are seizing his territories, but he has also lost most, if not ''all'' credibility as a villain.

** There's a good chance many of the bad guys are this, with names like [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Lord Hater]] and [[AwesomeMcCoolname Emperor Awesome]]. This is possibly acknowledged in "The Good Bad Guy" with the introduction of an idol of Hater's who gained notoriety under the name "Major Threat," but has since reformed and now goes by "Jeff."

Nice Hat is now a disambiguation page. Replaced it with the entry from the Living Hat page.


* LivingHat: Wander's hat is implied to be sentient. Mostly it acts as a BagOfHolding that gives the owner what they need for a particular situation. This is highlighted in the episode "The Hat", where Wander goes missing and Sylvia has to use the hat to find him, but everything the hat gives her results in her almost being eaten by a giant worm [[spoiler:which is what the hat wants, since Wander had been swallowed by the worm.]] When Sylvia argues with the hat, it appears to smile or frown as a response.
