* ValuesDissonance: Sinbad, [[DesignatedHero the hero]], is trapped in a cave thanks to a literal TogetherInDeath custom with only limited food and water. Fortunately, very soon after his 'burial' a living woman is entombed with her dead husband nearby, so Sinbad beats her to death and steals her supplies. [[{{Narm}} This happens]] [[BlackComedy multiple times]] before he escapes...which he could have done at any time, had he explored the cave a little more thoroughly and discovered the hole by which he escapes earlier.

"What an Idiot!" is now Flame Bait.


* WhatAnIdiot: If Sinbad continues getting bad luck on the voyages he goes on, ''why the hell does he keep going off??!??!?!''
** In the early voyages, it was because he blew the fortune he made on the previous voyage on high living, and needed to make more money. Since he got into the dangerous voyage business after blowing his inheritance on high living, you'd think he'd have learned.
