- Adaptational Villainy: Done for a joke; several good or neutral characters will be involved with historical crimes like Mr Krabs killing and possibly cannibalizing Amelia Earhart, or other dubious shenanigans like Aquaman profiting off oil spills.

- Been There, Shaped History: Various fictional characters are portrayed as being involved in numerous historical events. As you can expect this is Played for Laughs.
- Dirty Commies: Bob the Builder is regularly depicted as working for The Soviet Union. Including being responsible for constructing The Berlin Wall or having his show sabotaged in an anti-communist psyop by the US government.
- Fictionalized Death Account: Downplayed with "Did WW2 End With A Rap Battle?" Adolf Hitler was Driven to Suicide as in Real Life, but instead of not wanting to be captured by the Russians/have his body desecrated it was because he lost an all or nothing rap battle with Eminem

- Rap battles and diss tracks have, in order of video production, decided how WW2 ended
- The Secret of Long Pork Pies: "Was Mr Krabs involved in Amelia Earhart's disappearance?" implies that his limited time Krabby Patty deal that came out shortly after Amelia Earhart's disappearance was in fact her. Also counts as To Serve Man
