* BaitAndSwitch: Any time Pat says something that sounds like it reveals Pat's gender turns out to be a double-meaning term. Though given the characters reason for existence, [[ForegoneConclusion it's likely obvious that Pat means something else when Pat says something that sounds gender-specific.]]

* InnocentInnuendo: Pat makes all sorts of this, intended to sound as if Pat's gender has finally been revealed, before Pat quickly shows what Pat actually meant.
-->'''Pat:''' (after falling down the stairs) "I just crushed my nuts!(takes bag of nuts out of pocket) There goes my afternoon snack."
-->'''Pat:''' (after appearing in a music video for the band Ween) "I played with the Ween! I played with the Ween!"

* NewJobAsThePlotDemands: A running plotline is Pat's inability to keep a job. In most cases, Pat is fired for things that could have been avoided (like, when Pat is a mail carrier, reading the mail of other people), though Pat sometimes quits as well for foolish reasons (such as when Pat quits being a server at a sushi restaurant over having to do what the job requires, and plans to quit as a manager for a gas company because Pat feels overqualfied).
** Eventually, Pat finds success as a radio call-in host. [[spoiler: By the end credits, Kathy has her job back. It's never explained why Pat is no longer a radio host, but it's implied to be because Pat no longer desires to be famous.]]

* ShaggyDogStory: At one point, Pat finds out that some people don't know what gender Pat is and goes to Pat's hair stylist asking to look like their own gender, with the clueless stylist giving Pat both a specifically male and specifically female hairstyle, both of which Pat rejects. When the stylist gives Pat their original hair style again, Pat exclaims "it's me!"
** Fans who expected [[spoiler: Pat's sex to finally be revealed in this movie]] probably view this movie to be one.
