2 | * SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: "Now I'm Free to see the WOOOOOOORLD!" |
3 | ** TruthInTelevision: That was one of a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPiWCkpl5aM series]] of real ads for Hoveround that played ''ad nauseum'' late night in the 90's. For those who were half-asleep during those hours, that reference is a lot darker. |

5 | * MemeticMutation: "Super perfundo on the early eve of your day!" |
6 | * RetroactiveRecognition: A young Alex Jones is shown driving around Austin lecturing over loudspeakers to the populace. |
7 | * SpiritualSuccessor: |
8 | ** Linklater's 2006 ''Literature/AScannerDarkly'' adaptation. Both were shot in the same rotoscoped style. |
