* HollywoodDateless- Appearantly girls are repulsed by him, he says in the song "I'm Awesome" and says he's as nervous as his cat "Old Dirty Curtis".
* InformedPoverty- Despite having a hit song, he claims he still can't afford Subway and prefers Mc Donald's.
* LovableCoward- In the song "I'm Awesome", he says that he will run away from a brawl. He might also be a MilesGloriosus because he is the "most obnoxious guest up at the sausage fest" in the same song.
* PissTakeRap- Ryan makes fun of his status as a white rapper, who are often perceived as less than adept rappers.
* PlagiarismInFiction- He jokes that if you enjoy his lyrics, it's probably because they were written by his little sister.
* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy- He says his "pants sag low even thought that went out of style like 10 years ago".
* SelfDeprecation- The whole idea behind "I'm Awesome" is to mock the BoastfulRap formula popular since the dawn of Hip Hop practically... while mocking himself.
* TheSlacker- in "The King of Maine" he says he slacks off and watches porn. The introduction to one says, "Guess who's back off the couch?"
* XMeetsY- In universe, ExecutiveMeddling wants him to be like "3oh3, Music/FloRida, mixed with B.O.B." in his song.. well, "Pop Song" but he is DoingItForTheArt and he invokes the BeYourself trope.
