* CreepyTwins: Christian and Christie have been invoking it ever since Mary accidentally gave them a copy of ''Film/TheShining'' instead of ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales''. At the barbecue, Joseph even tells them to knock off the "creepy twins schtick". They speak lines reminiscent of creepy children from horror movies like "come play with us", have dull facial expressions, and say creepy things. In Craig's route, [[spoiler:they even try to cut open River's stuffed toy Arnold]]. When not purposefully invoking the trope, they're actually fairly normal kids; in Joseph's route, you can actually get them to giggle along with their father if you egg them on and then toss them an obscure reference about ''Literature/ChildrenOfTheCorn''. Christie is actually a very nice girl when she's not with her twin brother Christian, as you find out when she watches you and Joseph bake.

There's also a picture of him with all of the date-able dads on Joseph's yacht, implying that he would hang out regularly with the dads before he and Hugo split and he left the cul-de-sac.

* GymBunny: Subverted. He's into men and is almost always working out, but it's not out of vanity -- instead, it's out of a genuine concern for his family's lifestyle. He always makes sure to spend time with his children too. He even takes River in his jogs, both to spend time with her and build resistance.

He always makes sure to spend time with his children too. He even takes River in his jogs, both to spend time with her and build resistance. This surprises the main character, because in their college days, Craig was known for his WackyFratboyHijinx, drinking endless amounts of beer (so much so that he was known as "keg stand Craig"), and eating bad food. Craig explains that the birth of his daughters made him realize exactly how bad his old lifestyle was and that he might lose time with them and they might grow up without a father if living that way led him to a premature demise, so he wound up going to the other extreme instead.
