True Art Is Incomprehensible is now an in-universe trope as per TRS.


* In "The Chokes" we're introduced to avant-garde filmmaker Jurgen Haabermaaster. One of his earliest films is ''"The Doctor and the Pencil"'', an [[LeFilmArtistique exploration of pain and rage which is also playful and comedic]]. [[TrueArtIsIncomprehensible The film is shot in grainy black-and-white, is roughly thirty seconds long and mostly consists of a man in a creepy doctor costume and a man in a creepy pencil costume screaming at each other.]]

* Also in “The Fountain of Youth,” the Blue King reveals how masochistic he and the tribesmen are devoted to the Chosen One (Vince). He presents Vince with a package containing a box with the Blue King’s severed left hand, a gift he “he took ages to wrap.” Vince compliments him with a face-saving “Cheers.” The Blue King then summons Peppo, crying “Ow” when he tries to clap his right hand to his left stump bandaged in cloth from his robe.
* Peppo’s another example in a similar vain. He painted a portrait of Vince when he arrived on the planet. He presents it to Vince who compliments his labor but makes the mistake of saying the fringe was a bit short.

—->’’’Peppo:’’’ Forgive me my lord! (Peppo stabs himself in the chest, grimacing in pain as Vince watches in horror and disbelief).

—->’’’Vince:’’’ I...just..meant you could probably redo the fringe.

—->’’’Peppo:’’’ Oh yeah.(Passes Out)

—->’’’Blue King:’’’ (awkwardly) Okaaay Music!
