*** Peter claims that even though AT&T unsuccessfully hyped up [=mLife=] as the cell phone that would change people's lives, it would take another five years until Creator/{{Apple}} would release a phone that actually did change people's lives, without AT&T... even though from 2007-2011, a deal between Apple and AT&T kept the [=iPhone=] exclusive to the latter's subscribers.
*** Peter reports that Music/BritneySpears' "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d837Ftk5JQ0 Pepsi Now and Then]]" commercial later spawned a commercial set entirely in 1958, but longer ads for the other years never made it to the public. However, Pepsi also aired extended versions of the 1966 segment and the finale.
*** Peter refers to Creator/DwayneJohnson and Creator/VinDiesel as bald white men, even though both have African heritage, and Johnson is also part-Samoan.

* OneEpisodeWonder: "[[http://www.platypuscomix.net/miscellaneous/index.php?issue=7 Rice Cub]]" ends by asking the reader to tell Peter if he or she would like to read a sequel. Even though some people [[http://www.toonzone.net/forums/platypus-comix/190160-rice-cub-talkback.html answered]] that they would, Peter evidently never found the time to make one.

** In its formative years, the site contained no archive. Some cartoons were literally up for only one week and then banished forever. The practice was originally due to limited storage space (it began as a [=GeoCities=] site) but was continued until 2006 as a means of quality control (anything Peter didn't regret making was given a position in a selective archive section). Most of the pre-2006 works are still offline, but lately they have turned up in book collections.
** One discontinued series, ''Guava Guava'', still has a few comics posted at platypuscomix.net, including the second part of "Raiders of the Lost Arc". However, Peter divided them among the Variety and Kristmas Klassics sections, as opposed to giving ''Guava Guava'' its own menu and spot on the homepage.
