* In the pilot, Jimmy accuses Virginia of being at fault for his fruit allergy due to her smoking, which she looks rather annoyed by and kicks him out of the car. Some episodes later, it turns out she lied about his allergy, to keep him from eating her fruits as a child. She wasn't annoyed at his allegation, she was annoyed her lie came back to bite her in the butt.

* As much as Jimmy's HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood is played for laughs, it can actually seem a bit chilling if you were in a dysfunctional family. Burt and Virginia had a house with little to no child-proofing or basic safety, and they are almost belligerent when Jimmy points out some of the terrible things they did to him like using his identity for a credit card, Virginia's hoarding and smoking problems, leaving him all alone in the unsafe house with a negligent babysitter (Maw Maw, before her Alzheimer's kicked in) while not having AN INSURANCE, and let's not even touch how there is almost no regard about personal boundaries between him and others (like constantly telling Jimmy to destroy Sabrina and Wyatt's relationship for his own needs). It's like they have no concept of how take care of a child and seem proud of it. How did they escape any type of child services notice?
