* ADateWithRosiePalms: {{spoiler: What Stan does at the [[GainaxEnding end]]}}.

* TheBully: A whole host of them. Bucky Bailey, Stan, Stan's lawyer, Butters' Grandma and even Jesus.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Stan has this attitude when he posts a anti-bullying video and exploits Butters for fame, instead of actually helping him. [[OnlySaneMan Kyle]] [[WhatTheHellHero calls him out on this]] but Stan doesn't listen, [[LaserGuidedKarma which eventually leads to him being hated by the whole school, and even his lawyer]].
* {{Jerkass}}: Pretty much, Butters' Grandma, Bucky Bailey, [[JerkassBall Stan]], Stan's lawyer, and Jesus of all people are pretty unpleasant in this episode.

** People showing up in the bathroom to bully others, including Grandma Stotch, an anti-bullying representative, Stan's lawyer Nick Jabs, Stan and ''Jesus''.

* ATasteOfTheirOwnMedicine: The anti-bullying representative harasses Stan in the bathroom for "stealing" his idea. He is then bullied himself by Stan's lawyer and even reduced to tears. Said lawyer is then harassed by ''Jesus'' in another bathroom.

* TruthInTelevision: Yes, bullying can happen ''anywhere'', not just school. In fact, parental bullying (one Butters suffers from his family) and business bullying (one Bucky suffers from the lawyer) are arguably just as common as classic school bullying. And believe it or not, people are willing to stoop low enough to exploit the news of bullying for their own gain, because almost no one is that selfless and altruistic.

* WhatTheHellHero: What Stan's lawyer, Mick Jabs, says to him after Butters just beaten up Dr. Oz.

** Stan accuses Kyle of being a bully to him just for not agreeing with his anti-bullying video, when he himself is acting like a bully by pressuring him to join his cause and forcing Butters to be a onscreen celebrity rather than treating him like an abuse victim.

** After enduring endless abuse from his grandmother, Butters finally loses it at ''Series/TheDoctorOzShow''.

'''Bucky:''' You may only have an Internet degree, but why don't you start acting like you're a school counselor and not an uninformed backwards little dork?! M'kay!

* GracefulLoser: Stan admits defeat and jacks it in San diego.

* JerkassRealization: Stan now realizes what a jerk he was being and starts jacking it in san diego to make up for it.

* GotVolunteered: PlayedForDrama. Butters ends up partaking in Stan's anti-bullying campaign against his will, which stresses him to the point of [[ItMakesSenseInContext assaulting Dr. Oz]].

* EvilOldFolks: Grandma Stotch is easily one of the most malicious characters in this show, which '''really''' speaks volumes.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Butters gives an epic one to his grandma concerning how empty bullying must make her feel, and how when she's withering and dying he'll come see her and show how he's alive and strong despite what she's done. Her expressions throughout show how effective this speech is on her.

** It’s also a huge one to Jason Russell, the creator of the ''Kony 2012'' video. You could tell the show’s creators truly ''loathe'' his guts.

* FatBastard: Bucky Bailey is the advocate of an anti-bullying foundation [[{{Hypocrite}} but is largely unpleasant towards the people he comes across]].

** After suffering a lot of abuse from his grandmother, Butters finally loses it at ''Series/TheDoctorOzShow''.

** Deconstructed. Stan creates an anti-bullying video but uses it to attain fame instead of helping people, and the type of bullying in his movie revolves around bullying at school, not general bullying like DomesticAbuse or bullying in the workplace. Several people who [[{{Hypocrite}} claim to be against bullying have turned out to be bullies themselves]], showing how anyone, not just children, can become one for whatever reason and hardly anyone is any better than a real bully.
