* The footnotes would have you believe that everybody on earth had a [[TrueArtIsIncomprehensible hot take]] or [[StockJokes lame joke]] to make at ''The Navidson Record'''s expense. The idea of ''Series/HomeImprovement'' lampooning Navidson's [[spoiler:near-death from exposure]] is pure comedy [[MoodWhiplash to contrast to the events playing out in the narrative]].

* [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Jenny's]] interview, which gets derailed by her eccentric rambling about the physics of the house and her doing equations for it on paper.
* Later editions include emails and interviews with some of the people Johnny and Lude interact with collected by the editors. The contrast between [[UnreliableNarrator Johnny's portrayals of them in his writings]] and the way they actually are is often jarring and pretty hilarious, particularly with the various women that Johnny claims he and Lude slept with, who — contrary to his manic and insulting rambles about them probably having some kind of horrific and sad lives — all seem pretty normal and well-adjusted, with opinions on the duo that range from "kinda weird but fun to hang with for a night" to "annoying druggie assholes".
** Special mention goes to Hailey's email. After Johnny goes on a long, maudlin, delirious, and nightmarish rant about his supposedly awful encounter with her and his crumbling sanity in general, [[MoodWhiplash you suddenly get hit with]] a brief email from Hailey that reveals her to be a bubbly, air-headed GenkiGirl who explains that her time with Johnny actually amounted to a rather quick but okay enough hookup, adding that she found him squirrely but nice. She goes on to admit that she was a little hurt by Johnny complaining about her bad breath, and asks the editors to let him know that she's quit smoking since then.
** Note also that Hailey is also the '''only''' instance of Johnny having sex that can be corroborated by the editors, implying he is not nearly as much of a Casanova as he makes himself out to be in the journal. By contrast, ''Lude's'' many scores [[ReallyGetsAround are supported by the evidence found by the editors]].
