Added DiffLines:

* LampshadeHanging: When Jake spots him attending a monkey meeting, Principal Pixiefrog says he's just here to get some screentime.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: Dr. Baboonski talks to Jake about how every monkey has the same obsession he does; they just engage in group meetings in order to avoid going out of control in their everyday lives. He also tells Jake that he is not actually the first monkey to formally name that part of the body.
* OverusedRunningGag: Twice over.
** The overall episode is basically the writers' acknowledgement of Jake's obsession with his own butt and how that's wearing thin with the other characters that have to watch this every week.
** Dr. Baboonski tells Adam that this is actually the point of the group meetings. Every week, members do exactly what Jake has been doing, but to such an excessive degree that they all get sick of it by the time they go home. He says that they all simply get their addiction out of their systems and are thus able to effectively function in society for the following week.

* BannedEpisode: This episode was banned from showing on Cartoon Network after its second time airing in early September 2007. Cartoon Network's new Executive General Manager (out of Atlanta) pulled the episode after he found it offensive and "too-butt-filled", which was deemed inappropriate and vulgar for the intended audience of children. Shortly after its removal it was nominated for an Annie Award in Writing. However, despite the episode being banned, it is still available through DVD boxsets, iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, Netflix and other online streaming sites and services. It is unknown whether the episode's ban is permanent and whether or not reruns will air on any Turner-related network via broadcast television. The sister episode, "Shark Fin Soupy", was later re-paired with the later Season 4 episode "Hygiene Hijinks" on May 28, 2008.
