* ComedicSociopathy: Batman giving a swirlie to Joker's accountant is possibly one of his most cruel yet hilarious moments in the show. It works precisely because NothingIsFunnier; all we get to hear is the following exchange, forcing the audience to visualize the comedically unkind scene for themselves:
--> '''Batman:''' "Where is [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker he]]?"\\
'''Ernie the Accountant:''' "I dunno what you're talking about!"\\
'''Penguin:''' (''outside the bathroom, under his breath'') "He can't threaten my guests...!"\\
'''Batman:''' "Let me jog your memory!"\\
'''Ernie:''' "[[BigNo NOOOOGBLBGLBLBLG]]!"\\
'''Penguin:''' (''upon hearing the sound of '''repeated''' flushing, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere he decides to walk away without a word]]'')
--> '''Batman:''' "Where is [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker he]]?"\\
'''Ernie the Accountant:''' "I dunno what you're talking about!"\\
'''Penguin:''' (''outside the bathroom, under his breath'') "He can't threaten my guests...!"\\
'''Batman:''' "Let me jog your memory!"\\
'''Ernie:''' "[[BigNo NOOOOGBLBGLBLBLG]]!"\\
'''Penguin:''' (''upon hearing the sound of '''repeated''' flushing, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere he decides to walk away without a word]]'')

* FrivolousLawsuit: Parodied this with an [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed unnamed Johnnie Cochran lookalike]] popping up to say a catchy line to support a lawsuit. In the commentary for one such episode, the creators note how dated the joke wound up being. Joker used high-powered lawyers to get acquitted of his various crimes (clearly referencing Cochran's most famous case): "If a man's filled with glee, that man must go free!" According to the commentary, they knew this joke would end up very dated, but they just couldn't resist it.
