** Sue Ellen, as a [[FishOutOfWater high-schooler]], has no idea how to operate the GAW fax-machine (an essential piece of office kit in 1991), but the irony is that arguably most ''modern'' high-schoolers in 2021 would ''also'' be pretty stumped at how to operate this now out-moded device.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: This movie is ''painfully'' early 90s, caused mostly by it's focus on fashion. The catwalk [[FashionShow show]] finale is particularly exemplary, and is a riot of [[TotallyRadical gaudy neon and spandex.]]
** The office uses a cashbox for expenses, and Rose mentions to Sue Ellen the she can cash checks since no one has time to go to the bank. Retail banking vastly changed in the 1990s, and cashboxes were quickly replaced with company credit cards, and ATM popularity was starting to explode right around the time the film came out, making it seem odd to viewers just a few years later that cashing a check had to be done during banking hours.
* WorkingTitle: The film's working title was "The Real World", but the title was changed to avoid confusion with Creator/{{MTV}}'s [[Series/TheRealWorld then-upcoming reality show of the same name]].

** When showing Sue Ellen her computer, Rose proudly points out the mouse as if it is state of the art. YMMV but this may be TruthInTelevision as most PC users in '91 were still using DOS-based systems. Windows 3.0, the first version of Windows to become really popular, came out in 1990, but FridgeBrilliance kicks in when you realize most big companies are slow to upgrade their workstations, home computers weren't as ubiquitous as they are today, and Apple wasn't "cool" yet. As such, the mouse probably ''was'' state of the art to them.
