* AuthorAvatar: Seth, to some extent. Him and [=KalloFox34=] are both liberal atheists who have the same taste in pop-culture. What sets him apart from other fanfiction examples is that he's a ButtMonkey who does have his flaws (sarcasm, lack of a backbone, perversion, alcoholism, obsession with TV, etc.) that keep him out of GaryStu territory.

* DependingOnTheWriter:
** Officer Jenny's personality seems to depend on what makes the joke work. She's either a StrawFeminist or a DirtyCop who not only accepts bribes, but even asks for them.
** Seth tends to vary as well. He's either a smug, apathetic InsufferableGenius; an occasionally insensitive but [[NiceGuy well-meaning fellow]]; a walking punchline; or a spineless NervousWreck, sometimes more than one within a single episode.
** Flosshead, too. He either has a HiddenHeartOfGold or is just a plain old {{Jerkass}} lacking any sort of redeeming qualities.



** Seth was mostly a NiceGuy in the earliest episodes, with only occasional bouts of snarkiness. Later, he became [[TookALevelInJerkass just a male version of]] [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Lois Griffin]].

to:

* SpontaneousChoreography: In an upcoming episode, we have Seth and a large amount of fish singing a song about catching salmon in a bucket.

'''Henry:''' Whoa, June! Calm down!\\
'''June:''' Shut the (Nick jingle) up, Henry!\\
'''Henry:''' Okay.
*** In "Less Money, Mo' Problems", May screams when Tim Tim suggests that she gives up [[TrademarkFavoriteFood ramen]]. It's loud enough for RM and Max to hear it.



* TakeThat:
** [=KalloFox34=] has said that he loathes ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'', and it shows:
*** In the upcoming episode "Less Money, Mo' Problems", they manage to fit two of these into one scene. A scavenger hunt on TV claims nobody had found a funny episode of ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy''. Cue UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump outside in a dumpster, digging around for evidence against Joe Biden, sadly saying "I like ''Ed, Edd n' Eddy''..."

'''Seth:''' Oh, you mean Danny Antonucci?\\
