* FridgeBrilliance: Why does Andie's boss take Andie's revised article about "How to lose a Guy in 10 days" anyway? Because it's close to what she wanted in the first place, a humiliating story about how a girl (initially Michelle) lost her boyfriend.
** When first visiting his family in Staton Island, why does Ben initially fib that his family's swearing is Tourette's Syndrome instead of explaining it's a game? Because he was under the false pretense that Andie was ''crazy'', and he didn't want to share his family's game with her: it's too special. (Also, this was the same girl who ruined Poker Night for him and his friends).
** Even before [[spoiler: Michelle's boyfriend comes back]], there's one hint that Michelle's 'clingy' ways aren't truly sure-fire ways to lose a guy in 10 days. Remember when she was pretending to be a couples therapist and suggested Ben and Andie meet his family? That was ''her'' suggestion. And guess what? It only drove Ben ''and'' Andie closer together!
