  • All the shoutouts when Ned mistook the newly transformed Mike for a thief or burglar.
    • Such as Ned putting on a gladiator helmet and creeping around his own home while wielding a (rather large) axe.
    Mike: Ned, I'm telling you, I'm telling you: stop it. Stop it! Now! (picks up a lightsaber)
    Ned: Oh..an elegant weapon. From a more civilized time. (ignites his lightsaber)
  • Watching the vacuous high school girls mercilessly try to seduce Mike, Unfortunate Implications aside. invoked
    Mike: Listen, girls. If you don't respect yourself, how do you expect others to respect you?
    Lauren: Don't respect me.
    Samantha: No! Don't respect me.
    Jaime: You don't even have to remember my name!
    Lauren: (in shock) Okay, wow.
    Samantha Yeah, that's like, really slutty.
    Mike: This is some other dad's problem.
  • Mike suggesting to the class that they all make an 'abstinence pact' together.
  • Ned's attempts at wooing the school principal, he keeps trying way too hard until he discovers that she's a closet geek and behold! True love is born!
    • Thomas Lennon steals just about every scene he's in.
  • Meta example: Zac Efron was in his early twenties and Leslie Mann in her forties when they shared a kiss onscreen. In Real Life, Mann's daughter (10 at the time) had a huge crush on Efron. So, when word got out that they had kissed, the daughter licked Mann's face because she wanted to taste Zac Efron's spit. Hilarious in a bit of a squicky way.
