* Lindsay explaining her general distaste for UsefulNotes/TheAuteurTheory, explaining how it came across to her like a celebration of egomania, worshipping self-impressed director and how only their vision matters for a film despite it being such a collaborative effort, and building a field of academia around it to justify it.

* The intro story serving the sentiment of the title: Two days after first watching ''Film/{{Transformers}}'' in theatres with her then-roommate, her roommate suddenly asked [[ItMakesSenseInContext "Did a robot pee on John Turturro in that movie?"]]. Lindsay denied that it happened despite her roommate's insistence, but then she saw the film again, confirming that indeed, [[Funny/{{Transformers}} Bumblebee peed on beloved indie icon John Turturro]] ''[[WeirdnessCensor and she somehow completely forgot about it.]]''
