7* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference:
8** The first episode, "Left in the Dark", had some small differences in character designs. Mostly, it's about how the characters' clothes are colored (Lola's dress is in a brighter shade of pink, Leni's dress is in a duller shade of teal, Luan's skirt, socks and scrunchie are a brighter, almost neon yellow and Lisa's sweater is a darker shade of green), but then there are Lana's hat (whose hole on the back is oval-shaped rather than rectangular) and Lucy's hairline (which leaves a bit of skin above her nose uncovered). [[http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/147/560/810.jpg This promotional picture]] shows the designs used in that episode.
9** Also, in "Left in the Dark" and in a bunch of other early episodes, the ''Anime/GreatMazinger''-esque robot in Lincoln's room has its eyes colored in yellow.
10** [[https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/14/66/3f/14663f3825c769cecc2fd732395f8eb5.jpg In the original promotional poster for the show]] (and other similar artworks that feature the characters in the same poses but in different positions), Lola is the only one of the sisters with three eyelashes per eye, with everyone else having only two. In the final show, Lily, Lana[[note]]It should be noted that, as shown in the covers of the Papercutz books and in one of the "How to Draw" videos on Nickelodeon's [=YouTube=] channel, Chris Savino still draws Lana with two eyelashes, saying that the third one is only for the more feminine sisters.[[/note]] and Leni have three eyelashes too. Other small design differences can be found in the poster.[[labelnote:Such as]]Everyone's eyelashes are disconnected from their eyes, Luna is missing her bracelets and her shirt has ripped sleeves, Luan has the entire upper row of her teeth exposed instead of just having two buck teeth, the bottom of Lisa's sweater has sharp edges, Lana's overalls are missing the buttons on the front, Lynn is missing the small tuft of hair behind her neck and Lucy's shoes are flats instead of slip-ons.[[/labelnote]]
11** In Season 1, Lynn Sr. and Rita were TheFaceless, with only a few teasers here and there (such as the shadow of Lynn Sr.'s face at the end of "It's a Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud House"). The Season 2 premiere revealed their faces towards the end, and they were constantly shown ever since then (except for three episodes that came before in production order but were aired later).
12** When Sid Chang first appeared in the first few episodes of Season 4, she had no eyelashes. In the proper spin-off series ''WesternAnimation/TheCasagrandes'', she has two eyelashes per eye.
13* EarlyPersonalitySigns: All of the Loud children have hinted at their personality as babies and young children.
14** Lori has always been interested in phones ("Not a Loud"), and has been [[{{Gasshole}} gassy]] and blamed her farts on others since she was one (The comic "It's Just a Phase").
15** Leni has been [[TheFashionista experimenting with fashion]] since she was one ("It's Just a Phase").
16** Luna had a loud cry as a baby ("It's Just a Phase") and now sings loudly. Also, as seen in "Not a Loud", she was always interested in music in general despite not becoming a rocker until later.
17** Luan gave people a PieInTheFace since she was one ("It's Just a Phase") and has been experimenting with stand-up comedy since she was eight ("Head Poet's Anxiety").
18** Lynn was "too competitive" at age one ("It's Just a Phase") and tried to lift weights as a baby ("Not a Loud"). Now, she's a super-competitive athlete.
19** Lincoln used to take off his pants a lot at age one ("It's Just a Phase"). Now, he reads comics in his undies.
20** Lucy used to stare at people in a creepy way and didn't cry much as a baby ("The Crying Dame") and buried the family's dead hamster at age one ("It's Just a Phase"). Now, she's a {{Goth}} who [[TheStoic barely expresses emotion]].
21** Lana has been shown to [[FilthyFun love mud]] as a toddler ("It's Just a Phase" and "Deal Me Out") and when she was a baby, she cried until they got to keep their cat, dog, and canary (the vlog and "Head Poet's Anxiety"), hinting at her AnimalLover personality.
22** Lola has loved to give things makeovers since she was one ("It's Just a Phase").
23** Lisa started doing experiments when she was one ("It's Just a Phase").
24* EatingContest: Discussed in "Pipe Dreams", when Lynn says she won a hot dog eating contest.
25* EdibleThemeNaming: In "Community Disservice", Lola gets [[AndYourRewardIsClothes awarded a crown]] made of [[AndYourRewardIsEdible garlic bread]].
26* EmbarrassingAdGig: In "A Star is Scorned", Lola is humiliated when in an ad for a spa, she is peeking out of a bush while CoveredInMud, and her baby sister Lily is hogging the spotlight.
27* EmbarrassinglyDresslikeOutfit: In "Broadcast Blues", when Rusty Spokes is disguised as a woman, he complains about having to wear a "dress", even though what he's wearing is actually a pantsuit.
28* EmbarrassingPyjamas: In "Missed Connection", Carl is embarrassed by his mother entering a video chat with his train pyjamas.
29* EnsembleCast: Back in Season 1, the show began with Lincoln as the main character and central focus of pretty much every episode, but starting with Season 2 the show has gradually shifted to this format, with Lincoln's role being toned down to give other characters their DayInTheLimelight and an opportunity to show them outside their interactions with Lincoln.
30* EntertainmentAboveTheirAge:
31** In "Stage Plight", Lucy (who is 8), the twins (who are 6), Lisa (who is 4), and Lily (who is 1) go watch a production of ''Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet''. Justified because the reason they're there is because their older sister is playing Juliet.
32** In one episode, six-year-old Lola mentions that she once saw a mob movie.
33* EntertainmentBelowTheirAge: 11-12-year-old Clyde [=McBride=] is a fan of Blarney the Dinosaur (a parody of [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Barney the Dinosaur]]), which is meant for a preschool demographic.
34* EpisodeTagline:
35** In "Lincoln Loud: Girl Guru", Lincoln and his best friend Clyde say, "How hard could it be?" several times before realizing that [[TemptingFate it can actually be pretty hard]].
36** In "Not a Loud", Lincoln and Clyde say, "Field test!" before testing to see if Lincoln has strange powers or was swapped at birth.
37** In "Potty Mouth", Lily keeps saying, "Dannit" which is thought to be a mispronunciation of "Dammit". [[spoiler: It turns out to actually be a mispronunciation of "Doughnut".]]
38** In "Racing Hearts", whenever Luna or Sam fails at something she's not interested in, she describes it as "not really my thing".
39** In "Attention Deficit", both the Loud parents and Clyde's dads tell the Loud children to wait for specifically ''five minutes'' several times.
40** In "Linc or Swim", whenever the Loud family gets banned from the pool, someone says, "Loud family, out!" to which they reply, "We were just having fun", to which the person replies, "[Infraction] is/are not fun!". The phrase "[[SpockSpeak fecal incident]]" (referring to Lily [[PuttingThePeeInPool pooping in the pool]]) is also used several times.
41** In "Washed Up", the Loud family is marooned on an uninhabited island and they frequently say, "Louds never quit!". This is relatively true, since the Loud family has displayed {{Determinator}} tendencies in past episodes.
42* EpisodeTitleCard: It's done in the style of comic strips. Lincoln always appears somewhere in the top photo next to the title, whether he is the focus or not.
43* EscalatingWar: In "Friendzy," Lincoln figures out that having Clyde over activates the "Friend Card," which allows him to get what he wants because he has a friend over. When the sisters figure it out, they invite one of their friends before Clyde shows up. Lincoln retaliates by inviting two of his friends over, and his sisters retaliate by each inviting one more friend than the other, until several dozen kids start a fight over the [=TV=], and the Loud siblings start a fight over whose fault it is.
44* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Every one of the sisters gets one in the pilot, all in under two minutes. It also happens in the first minute of "Left in the Dark".
45* EstablishingSeriesMoment: The pilot which shows what a huge ordeal it is in a huge family simply to get to the bathroom.
46* EurekaMoment: Lincoln in the pilot; after Lori beats him to the bathroom and starts to panic about holding it in, he gets distracted by the smell of Lily's dirty diaper:
47-->'''Lincoln:''' Ugh, could clear a room. ''(realization)'' Could clear a room!
48* EverybodyCries:
49** All of Lincoln's sisters cry in "The Green House", when Lincoln convinces them to lower their energy use, by using a poster of an adorable polar bear to arouse their sympathies.
50** All of the Loud kids cry in "Pets Peeved" when the pets go missing.
51* EveryPizzaIsPepperoni: Whenever pizza is shown, it is always pepperoni.
52* EvilLaugh: Luan gets one in the April Fool's episodes to show how uncaring and unsympathetic of a prankster she is that day.
53* ExpositionFairy:
54** In the licensed games "Germ Squirmish" and "Summer School", Lisa sits in the corner of the screen giving the player advice.
55** In the game "Lincoln's List", Clyde gives the player advice.
56* ExpositoryThemeTune: Like the show, the theme song is about being the only boy among ten sisters.
57* ExtremeOmnivore:
58** Lana eats bugs and pet food sometimes. She also eats paper in "Brawl in the Family".
59** Charles ate Lincoln's bag once. He's also eaten money in "It's a Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud House".
60** In "Funny Business", Gary the rabbit eats part of Lincoln's comic.
61* EyeScream: Lincoln gets sunscreen in both his eyes in one episode. The right one as he is giving his usual monologue to the viewer and his left when Lily flicks some at him as he is holding her.
62* EyesOutOfSight: Lucy always has her eyes covered by her hair. Even when she was shown as a baby several times, she either wore an EyeObscuringHat or already had her bangs grown. Considering the reason why Lynn Sr. and Rita let her hair grow out as said in one episode, her eyes must have been creepy enough for them to not want to look at.
63[[/folder]]
64
65[[folder:F]]
66* TheFaceless:
67** Lynn Sr. and Rita during the first season, although Lynn Sr.'s eyes were occasionally seen. Their faces are revealed at the climax of the Season 2 episode "11 Louds a Leapin'", and they have remained with their faces visible ever since then.
68** We don't get to see the faces of the President and First Lady in the flashback to the day Lincoln was born in "Not a Loud".
69** The Season 4 [[ADayInTheLimelight pets-focused]] episode "Love Birds" brings this back, hiding the faces of every named human character that appears, if not outright making them TheVoice (Lynn Sr., Lincoln, Lola, Lana, Leni, Lisa, and Mr. Grouse).
70* {{Fainting}}:
71** Luna faints in "Roadie to Nowhere" when she sees Flip's meat molar.
72** In "It's a Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud House", Luan passes out from being made dizzy due to Luna banging on the furnace which she was hiding in.
73** Referenced in the song the Louds sing in "Tripped!", which has the lyric, "Mom passed out!". Rita doesn't actually pass out, though.
74** In "The Whole Picture", Lincoln passes out upon finding out the camera is empty and so does Clyde upon seeing Lori.
75** In "The Spies Who Loved Me", Aunt Frida passes out because she's worried about Ronnie Anne.
76* FaintInShock:
77** Clyde had a crush on Lori in early seasons, which would occasionally cause him to black out.
78** [[LovableCoward Lynn Sr.]] in particular has a habit of passing out when afraid, notably in "Tricked!" when he spends most of the episode unconscious due to his fear of Halloween, and "Not a Loud" where he and the President both black out at the prospect of [[DeliveryGuy delivering Lincoln]]. The First Lady ends up delivering him instead.
79** Howard, one of Clyde's fathers, faints out of worry for the safety of his cats in "Purrfect Gig".
80* FamilyPortraitOfCharacterization: "Picture Perfect" has Lincoln trying to get a tidy family photo of him, his sisters, and the pets, but the impatient sisters act as they usually would when the camera takes to long to shoot. The end result is the picture depicting the unwinding chaos that are the Loud siblings, which their parents appreciate since they think it sums up the family well.
81* FantasyCreep: The show started off as a SliceOfLife about Lincoln navigating the problems of having a really large family. Later seasons would shift into episodes having plot devices such as magic curses, TimeTravel, and working {{Shrink Ray}}s.
82* TheFashionista: Leni and Carlota are very into fashion, and to a lesser extent, so are Lori and Lola.
83* FearInducedIdiocy: {{Downplayed|Trope}} in "[[Recap/TheLoudHouseS6E8TheLastLaughDriversDread Driver's Dread]]", where it's revealed that the reason Leni was bad at driving was due to her fear of failing to drive. That said, [[DumbBlonde she wasn't all that smart to begin with, fear or no fear]].
84* FearIsNormal: In "Hurl, Interrupted", Lynn's pals want to go on the new roller coaster, the Whipped Scream, at Dairyland. Lynn is less than enthused, though it's not because she's scared of the ride itself; she's actually emetophobic (meaning that she's afraid of vomiting). She does everything in her power to avoid riding it, but ultimately confesses to her friends that she just doesn't want to throw up. They tell her that if she doesn't want to go on the Whipped Scream, they won't force her to. By the end, Lynn does end up puking due to [[BigEater overeating]], but she realizes it's not as bad as she thought and she does want to try the Whipped Scream now.
85* FeminineLegSwish: In a video featuring [[TheTwelveSpoofsOfChristmas the Louds singing a parody of "12 Nights of Christmas"]], Lori the ValleyGirl is shown lying on her bed, swishing her legs, as she says she got a [[PhoneaholicTeenager new phone plan.]]
86* FightForTheLastBite:
87** In "Slice of Life", Lincoln and his sisters argue over the last slice of pizza.
88** Downplayed in "Spell it Out" where Lola and Lucy both want the last piece of pie but they don't argue.
89* FilthyFun:
90** Lana likes playing in the mud, along with other gross things such as unclogging toilets, NatureTinkling and [[ExtremeOmnivore eating spoiled food]].
91** Some of the twins' classmates also play in the mud.
92** In "Undie Pressure", Charles and Cliff play in the mud.
93* FisherKingdom: In "Out on a Limo", staying too long amongst Lord Tetherby and learning the ways to be fancy causes Lincoln to start acting like a high-class snob, to the point of refusing to take his sisters to the Burpin' Burger and insulting his own driver.
94* FoodComa:
95** In "Snow Way Out", the Loud kids eat three burgers each to try to find a winning ticket, and after their third burger, they all look groggy. They perk up pretty quickly, though.
96** In "[[ThanksgivingEpisode The Loudest Thanksgiving]]", Lincoln remembers that in previous Thanksgivings, he always ate too much and fell asleep, so this time he's trying not to.
97* {{Foodfight}}:
98** The younger sisters have several food fights in "A Tale of Two Tables", with their older siblings and, to a lesser extent, ''Rita'', eventually joining in.
99** One licensed game involves a food fight: Lincoln vs. all the sisters except Lily.
100** In "No Guts, No Glori", two of the sisters throw food at each other.
101* FooledByTheSound:
102** In "[[Recap/TheLoudHouseS1E1LeftInTheDarkGetTheMessage Left in the Dark]]", Lori thinks she hears a ghost moaning, but it's only the pipes settling, then Leni hears a scratching sound and also thinks it's a ghost, but it's only their cat Cliff using a scratching post.
103** In "[[Recap/TheLoudHouseS1E26StudyMuffinHomespun Study Muffin]]", the sisters say, "Buh, buh, buh" when they're distracted by Hugh, a man on whom they have a crush. The other sisters hear this noise and initially mistake it as a goose or a sheep.
104** In "[[Recap/TheLoudHouseS2E17ArgghYouForRealGarageBanned Garage Banned]]", Lori growls in annoyance. Her ditzy boyfriend Bobby, who was on the phone with her, thinks it's a gorilla.
105** In "[[Recap/TheLoudHouseS4E6WashedUpRecipeForDisaster Washed Up]]", a boat's engine makes a weird sound. Leni apologizes, thinking it's [[GrowlingGut her own stomach]] as she didn't have much for breakfast.
106* ForcedMeme: The show would occasionally try to evoke LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn repeatedly in a few episodes.
107* {{Foreshadowing}}:
108** Up until they finally appeared in person, Clyde would always refer to his dads as "my parents" and never "my mom and dad".
109** Prior to TheReveal of Luna's lesbianism, in "Study Muffin" she is the only sister who notes Ms. [=DiMartino=] is "smokin'".
110** Note that Lily is always smiling or calm in every instance of Luan's April Fool's Day pranks, foreshadowing that she's the only one of the family who likes them as revealed in "Silence of the Luans".
111* FoulCafeteriaFood: Justified in "Diss the Cook". Chef Pat serves normal food to most of the students at the Royal Woods Middle School, but disgusting or subpar food to Lincoln and Lynn. They talk to their older sisters, and find out that Leni, Luna, and Luan were also given unpalatable lunches when they went to the school. As it turns out, it was because Pat has a grudge against Rita.
112* FourFingeredHands: The show's default style; however, the {{animesque}} versions of the characters in the "Slice of Life" short have five fingers. Lisa and Aunt Ruth both have an [[ExtraDigits extra toe]], so they're depicted with five-toed (and six-toed in close-ups) feet rather than four toes like other characters.
113* FourTemperamentEnsemble:
114** Sanguine: Leni, Luna, Luan, and Lana.
115** Choleric: Lori, Lynn, and Lola.
116** Melancholic: Lucy and Lisa.
117** Phlegmatic: Lincoln and Lily.
118* FourthWallObserver: Lincoln will often monologue to the camera about some aspect of his life to set up the episode's events. This was dropped throughout most of Season 2, however, to focus on the "slice of life" aspect a little more.
119* FreezeFrameBonus: During "Driving Miss Hazy", the Louds' address can be seen on Lori's driver's license, showing that they live in Royal Woods, Michigan. This is a ShoutOut to creator Chris Savino's hometown of Royal Oak, Michigan.
120* FreudianExcuse: It's revealed in "Middle Men" that the reason Lynn acts like such a {{jerkass}} is because she had a tough time in middle school in that she was mercilessly bullied and [[AdultsAreUseless the school staff were of no help]], so she put on an abrasive façade to survive the rest of the year without being targeted anymore.
121* FrothyMugsOfWater: In "Flying Solo", Lincoln and Clyde sing "99 Jars of Jam on the Wall".
122* FunnyPhoneMisunderstanding:
123** In "Project Loud House", [[PhoneaholicTeenager Lori]] is heard saying on her phone, "No, not puke, Bobby; ''puce''. It's a colour."
124** In "Missed Connection", Bobby wants to tell Lori a story, but then Lori says, "Not another one!". She quickly explains that she thought she saw a baby snake, but it was only a scrunchie. Bobby then says, "That was a dumb idea", offending Lori, but he was talking to himself about accidentally making his dog throw up.
125** In "Get the Message", Lori accidentally insults Lincoln while on the phone to Bobby.
126* FunWithFlushing:
127** In "Sleuth or Consequences", it's revealed that Lincoln has tried to flush a sweater, some food he didn't like, and his father's CD's.
128** In "One of the Boys", Luke apparently flushed Bun-Bun.
129[[/folder]]
130
131[[folder:G]]
132* GamesOfTheElderly:
133** In the episode "Come Sale Away", baby Lily's siblings think they've sold her blanket and go out to look for it. Lucy and Lisa end up at an old woman's house, where she has them play bingo with her. Lucy finds it boring, but Lisa enjoys it.
134** In the episode "Cooked!", Leni adds a bingo game to Lynn Sr.'s restaurant and the only characters seen participating in the game are seniors.
135* {{Gasshole}}:
136** Lori's flatulence is a RunningGag.
137** Lynn loves giving Dutch ovens. She also burps a lot.
138** Lana loves to burp alot.
139** Lincoln can fart on cue, as seen in "A Tale of Two Tables," "Space Invader," and "Roughin' It".
140** According to Lola in "Brawl in the Family", Lana often sleep-farts so loudly that it blocks the sound of snoring.
141** Lola herself won the family burping contest in "Come Sale Away". Downplayed, however, since she's not normally heard burping or farting.
142** Lily farts a lot and sometimes burps.
143** In the dream universe in "One of the Boys", the boy versions of the sisters like to burp and fart.
144* GassyGastronomy:
145** In "A Tale of Two Tables", Lana sings, "Beans, beans, the magical fruit. The more you eat, the more you--" and then does armpit farts. Later, Lincoln says the same rhyme and farts for real (even shaking the table), which succeeds at annoying his parents so much they send him back to the kids' table.
146** In "Tripped!", Lori gets gas from eating bean chips, resulting in a VisibleOdor. A RunningGag throughout the episode is that [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten Lori's family keeps teasing her about having farted in the van]].
147** In "Camped!", Lynn is dared to drink a bottle of hot sauce, and it makes her fart... so much so that [[WiltingOdor a nearby moose loses its fur]].
148** In "Roughin' It", Clyde and Lincoln eat a can of beans [[CampingEpisode during their camping trip]]. Clyde later farts and apologizes (though he also states that he doesn't know if it was the beans or the numbness in his lower body that did it), but Lincoln is amused and cuts one as well.
149** In "The Old and the Restless", Pop-Pop farts after he eats chili and jokes that someone must’ve stepped on a frog.
150** In "Come Sale Away", the Loud children drink some soda and have a burping contest during the montage of them being competitive.
151** In "Making the Grade", Lisa quips that she's out of the conversion game, "Except for converting beans to methane!" She proceeds to fart so hard that it shakes the table.
152* GenderFlip: The entire premise of "One of the Boys" involves Lincoln [[WhatIf imagining]] what it would be like if his sisters were boys à la ''Series/MalcolmInTheMiddle''. The episode also gives a small glimpse of what the Loud family would be like if Lincoln was a girl (named "Linka") with ten brothers--it's more or less ''exactly'' the same as Lincoln's current life.
153* GeniusSweetTooth: Lisa is a child prodigy and likes candy.
154* GenkiGirl: Leni, Luan and Lily are very happy-go-lucky, Lynn is energetic enough to do many sports at once, and Luna is a rocker. Darcy also seems quite cheery, although she does cry when Lisa rejects her. Sid is also very upbeat and energetic and Polly Pain is energetic too.
155* GenreThrowback: The show is made InTheStyleOf mid-late 20th Century comic strips like ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'', as well as old sitcoms like ''Series/TheBradyBunch''.
156* GenteelInterbellumSetting: The comic story "Private Eyes" seems to combine elements from the 1920's (Lola being a silent film actress, Lana being a newsboy, and Leni being a flapper) and the 1930's (Lincoln and Clyde being private eye detectives and Lori wearing a pillbox hat).
157* TheGhost: The [=McBrides=]' therapist Dr. Lopez. All we can gather is that she's a woman.
158* GirlsLoveChocolate: "Lincoln Loud: Girl Guru" shows us that the sisters really love chocolate. Lincoln even calls them "chocoholics" for it. This example provides the trope's page image, too.
159* GlassesCuriosity:
160** In "Picture Perfect," while trying to make his sisters look presentable for a sibling photo reshoot, he removes Lisa's glasses and puts them on Leni to make the latter look smarter (than she already is, as he himself says).
161** In "The Old and the Restless," Lincoln takes a passerby man's glasses and puts them on when the boy thinks he sees Pop Pop about to skydive.
162%%* GloveSnap
163%%** Done by Lisa in “Potty Mouth” while scrubbing up to remove Lily’s vocal chords, a procedure that was fortunately shot down by her siblings.
164%%** At the ending of “Legends”, a trio of airport security guards confront Lincoln and his father for dancing in their underwear. This prompts them to snap their gloves in unison, implying that they’re not walking away with just a slap on the wrist.
165* GolfClubbing: In "No Guts, No Glori", Lola knocks Lincoln out with a golf club.
166* GoneHorriblyRight: In "No Guts, No Glori" when Lincoln recruits the sisters to lock up Lori when the parents go out, he takes charge and lets the sisters have fun, but they enjoy their freedom so much they're free to make a big mess of the house, leaving Lincoln to free Lori so she can get them under her control.
167* GoodParents:
168** Lynn Sr. and Rita Loud are shown to be caring and nurturing parents to their eleven children. Although, due to how frequently they go out or flat-out don't appear, we only ever so often get to see this side to them.
169** Clyde's adoptive gay fathers do nothing but dote on him and make him nutritious meals.
170* GooGooGetup:
171** In "Cover Girls", Lincoln has to dress as Lily.
172** In "Changing the Baby", Clyde sees Lincoln with Lily and dresses up as a baby to win Clyde back, thinking that Lincoln wants a baby to hang out with.
173** In "Potty Mouth", in order to trick an interviewer to see if Lily is qualified for daycare, Lisa impersonates Lily and dresses in a diaper.
174* GoshDangItToHeck:
175** The cast have a SharePhrase of "Dang it!", said by at least one character when something unpleasant is going on. This makes sense for characters at Lincoln's age on down, but it gets amusing when the teens and adults use it.
176** The above becomes more hilarious in the episode "Potty Mouth", where the Loud siblings start freaking out over who [[LittleBrotherIsWatching swore in front of Lily]].
177* {{Goth}}:
178** Lucy is a goth; she wears black, likes the occult, and writes dark poetry.
179** Lucy's crush from "L is For Love" seemed to have the same dark interests as Lucy.
180** Haiku is also a goth, wearing black, liking a vampire, and being all gloomy and pessimistic.
181** By extension, all of the members of "The Mortician's Club" are this, being into the same things as Lucy and Haiku and having similar appearances.
182* GothsHaveItHard: While this is averted usually, with goths such as Lucy and Haiku being reasonably content if a bit cynical in terms of personality, in "The Crying Dame", when baby Lily's siblings are [[CheerUpEpisode having trouble cheering her up]], they worry that they'll never be able to and she'll grow up to "wear black and listen to sad music all the time".
183* GreenAroundTheGills: People often go green in the face when they feel sick. Happens to...
184** Lincoln and Lana in "Toads and Tiaras".
185** Clyde in "Dance, Dance Resolution".
186** Lola in "Patching Things Up".
187** Lincoln suffers it alone in "Not a Loud".
188** The whole family in "Tripped!".
189* GrossOutShow: Downplayed, as the show has more of a slice-of-life thematic, but a handful of episodes feature toilet humor in one way or another that's sometimes even the center of the plot, from Lori's {{Gasshole}} tendencies to the house's bathroom. Heck, the pilot for the series involves Lincoln attempting to use the bathroom, followed by him using Lily's dirty diaper to chase Lori out.
190* GroupHug: Lincoln is often the victim of claustrophobic group hugs from his sisters.
191* GrowlingGut: [[PassionateSportsGirl Lynn]] gets this more than any other character in the series.
192* GuiltTripping: In "The Green House", Lincoln is assigned to do a school project on saving energy, but his sisters are being wasteful. He tries to get them to be more energy-efficient by showing them a photo of a baby polar bear sadly sitting on a melting ice cube.
193* GymClassRopeClimb: In "Predict Ability", Lincoln tries to get out of having to climb a rope by asking to go see the nurse, apparently having done so many times before, since Coach Pacowski immediately knew what Lincoln was going to say. As part of his attempts to break his predictability, next time he volunteers first for the rope climb and actually makes it to the top.
194[[/folder]]
195
196[[folder:H]]
