6 | !!Tropes: |
7 | * ArtisticLicenseHistory: Oh so much. For instance, The entirety of ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeHlVo__Gmk "The Substitute"]]'' |
8 | -->''"Um... Harrison, right? A slave to his raging violent patriotism, he assembled a band of mercenary Frenchmen and won back control of the US after 24 years of Indian rule. His armies killed millions of the dastardly oppressive savages."'' |
9 | * ArtisticLicenseTraditionalChristianity: ''[[http://youtu.be/zhEUWobdXqY "Jesus Fucking Christ"]]'' |
10 | ** For instance, Frank lists some of the disciples as [[Literature/TheFourGospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, John]], Tommy, Bunter, Tango, Sketty, Burno, and Churno. They also spun whatever Jesus did into sellable teachings and deeds. [[spoiler:They also arranged to have Jesus killed, while blaming it on Judas who was planning on killing himself anyway.]] |
11 | -->''"He and little John the Baptist would go on erotic weekend beach adventures, excluding the rest of the team - it's true shit! Google that shit man!"'' |
12 | ** Subverted with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bar3GOzDNzg Frank's bizarre lecture on the story of Sodom and Gomorrah]], which is an [[ShownTheirWork only slightly exaggerated]] summary of [[Literature/BookOfGenesis Genesis 19]]. |
13 | * BadBoss: The Dean of the college constantly messes with Frank and Steve and goes to extreme lengths to prank them including wearing a full body suit to pose as Frank's blind date. |
14 | * BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy: JFK. "He was a Hypercharismatic Telepathical Knight." |
15 | * DeadpanSnarker: Steve; emphasis on deadpan. |
16 | * ExtremeOmnisexual: In the case of the citizens of Sodom and Gomorrah, they'll do anything at all. Including rocks painted to look like God's Face. |
17 | * FloweryInsults: "I was once like you. Then I grew a brain, a dick, and a heart." |
18 | * HolyHalo |
19 | * JesusWasWayCool |
20 | * JerkAss: Steve, so much. Also, the Dean. |
21 | * LemonyNarrator: Frank mostly but Steve too (although its intentional on his part whereas for Frank it comes completely natural). |
22 | * PoliticallyCorrectHistory: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in ''[[WorldOfWeirdness "The Substitute" ]]''. |
23 | * PrecisionFStrike: Numerous |

26 | -->''"[[UsefulNotes/JohnTyler Tyler's]] achievements were overshadowed by his apparent disbelief in witches, which led to his transformation into one of the rare breeds of horse that Congress then had deemed fuckable by law."'' |
27 | -->''"And it seems we're out of slides here, so, if anyone has any complaints about the tone or interpretation of this chapter, you can take it up with Professor Frank. I - I have read his thoroughly offensive notes verbatim here and I'd like to express that I do not share his colorful take on history. His home number is 345-1212, so uh... so good luck on this crazy fuckin' test."'' |
28 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Neely lost the rights to Cox and Combes from WebAnimation/CoxAndCombesWashington due to the [[ReadTheFinePrint fine print]] of the contest the made them for; the Professor Brothers are extremely similar, especially in earlier videos like JFK. |

30 | * RousseauWasRight: PlayedWith In JFK: |
