* ValuesDissonance: In "Phineas Gets An Abortion", after his girlfriend's father shoots at his van, Phineas states "(He) knew (he) would asking for trouble falling in love with a 16-year old." There's no way you'd get away with that today, at least if you wanted to keep the character saying it sympathetic.

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: In one story, Phineas and Franklin think that Fat Freddy has died of an overdose, but he is only temporarily paralysed ("You cheap bastards, I could hear every word you said!"). This is mostly played for BlackComedy. However, some readers will be unable to forget the possibility that all of these druggy hijinks could end in death, making everything else that little bit less funny.
* HarsherInHindsight: Possibly also a GeniusBonus: one of the victims of the Charles Manson Family in 1969, murdered alongside Sharon Tate and others, was a well-known Los Angeles drugs dealer called Voytek ''Frykowski''.

* TearJerker: In one strip Phineas recounts the how he once found a patch of wild marijuana. He then goes there every so often to roll some joints and meditate. However, one day, he shows up with seven other people who had also discovered. [[{{Greed}} The eight of them fight over it and rip out as many plants as they can carry,]] [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone much to Phineas' regret.]]
