1 | * AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: The "good" beetles in the second episode really did want to help Toast Boy, however, their poor knowledge of human anatomy and psyche betrayed them. |
2 | ** This also happens with the supposed DownerEnding, where Toast Boy [[spoiler:goes to get his brain fixed]]. One wonders if he actually went there [[spoiler:thinking that's what it was (as in, really getting his brain fixed) or if he knew what it really entailed and, due the previous events, was DrivenToSuicide]]. |
3 | * FridgeHorror: The beetles are actually us - adults and all they do is a metaphor of how society is ''turning children into "adults"''. |
4 | * IAmNotShazam: Though "Toast Boy" is the main character's given name, "Spoilsbury" is never mentioned. |
5 | * MemeticMolester: In the final short, a beetle in the walls has this small conversation with Toast Boy: |
6 | -->'''Beetle in the walls:''' ''I've been watching you, little toast slave... In the shower, yes? Becoming quite the young gentleman, aren't we, [[LampshadedDoubleEntendre if you know what I mean.]]'' |
7 | * NauseaFuel: Anything having to do with the grandma. Particularly [[spoiler:"Give [[UnusualEuphemism granny's gash]] a moisten with that cream. Mind out, there might be a few loose kernels down there." The "kernels" turn out to be ''beetles''.]] |
8 | * NightmareFuel: The {{Freak Out}}s. All of them. |
9 | * {{Squick}}: Almost everything, particularly the grandma and some of Toast Boy's nightmares. [[spoiler:Especially the one where he watches two human-size beetles have sex, and then as two beetles ''rape his grandma''.]] |
10 | ** According to WordOfGod, the [[spoiler:aforementioned rape scene]] is one of the reasons [[OldShame why he has been put off from continuing the series]]. |
11 | * UglyCute: Toast Boy and Liache count, mostly because both are on the verge of [[TheWoobie woobie]] status. |
