* VirtuousVegetarianism: Despite [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness eating meat products towards the beginning of the comic's run]], Rob is a vegetarian on moral grounds. He has explained on more than one occasion that he doesn't eat meat because he finds the way animals are treated and butchered into food products to be too cruel. However, Rob's "virtue" mostly just serves to contrast with that of his cat Bucky, who wants to increase his meat intake just to spite Rob.

Black Best Friend has been renamed to Token Black Friend, it's unclear whether this is actually an example of that trope.


* BlackBestFriend: There is one strip that does mention his race; he and Rob are discussing some unknown incident of prejudice against him when Bucky interrupts by saying he's more of an "umber or something" and suggests looking at a J. Crew catalog. Bucky's preceding insult to Rob's skintone as "pink as a hothouse pansy" makes Joe laugh.
