-> '''Mickan:''' You know, when you grow old you need to have a job.
-> '''Viktor:''' Do I? You don't have a job! Gold Digger isn't a job, anyway.
-->-- Viktor to Mickan after she explained why Youtube isn’t a job.

* Played straight with Mickan’s friend Lussan, however. She bonds with an old ugly man because he happens to know the swedish king, or one of the richest swedes because of his wealth.

* TheSmartGuy: Played with in Fredrik’s case. He tries to invoke as being this. For example, when Alex is having some kind of problem, Fredrik thinks he knows the solution to which Alex very often follows. But it either makes things worse or just creates other problems and doesn’t really stabilize the situation.

** Kristian Rapp from season is implied to have been this to Fredrik in their youth. Although he isn’t seen holding any clear ill will towards Fredrik now that they are adults, but Fredrik still hates him.

*** Played straight with Mickan’s friend Lussan however. She bonds with an old ugly man because he happens to know the swedish king, or one of the richest swedes because of his wealth.

** A quite litteral example. In the season 1 finale while Anna is giving birth, Alex asks Fredrik a favor to get the carpenters to renovate the bathroom (swedish: '''Bad'''rum) while they’re gone. However, Fredrik mistakes him for saying the “baby’s room” (swedish: '''Barn'''rum). So, only when the carpenters have started renovating the BABY’s room does Fredrik realise the mistake he made and calls the carpenters “idiots”, which makes them leave for good. Fredrik is then stuck with having to fix the baby’s room.

* TheSmartGuy: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] with Fredrik. While not necessarily dumb, he tries to invoke as being this. For example, when Alex is having some kind of problem, Fredrik thinks he knows the solution to which Alex very often follows. But it either makes things worse or just creates other problems and doesn’t really stabilize the situation.

* TheSmartGuy: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] with Fredrik. While not necessarily dumb, he likes to think that he is smarter than he really is. When Alex is having some kind of problem, Fredrik thinks he knows the solution to which Alex very often follows. But it either makes things worse or just creates other problems and doesn’t really stabilize the situation.

*** Played straight with Mickan’s friend Lussan however. She bonds with an old ugly man because he happens to know the swedish king, or one of the richest swedes because, well, of his wealth.
* TheNiceGuy: Alex is very nice and shy. But he is almost too nice as he has it hard to decline to others.

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] with the main characters given what they hav had to go through with Ove. Notable since the trope is played straight with Kristian Rapp, Fredrik’s high school [[TheBully bully]], who almost immediately moves out from Saltis the same month he moved in because of how much Ove got on his nerves.

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Ove, becouse of how annoying and egotistical, but he is too dumb too realize it.

* Mickan’s friend Lussan however, definetily qualifies. She bonds with an old man because he happens to know the swedish king. Or one of the richest swedes because, well, of his wealth.
* NiceGuy: Alex is very nice, very shy. But he is almost too nice as he has it hard to say the word "no". Which, as you could guess, leads to conflict.

* Cloudcuckoolander: Ove and Anette, Anna’s parents and Leif Andrée (in season 5).

* TheScrappy: Ove and Anette InUniverse.

* AffablyEvil: This trope is merely [[DiscussedTrope discussed]] in one episode when Alex finds out that his uncle Herman, who was a great family-member and whom he really liked, used to be a Nazi soldier. Fredrik comments this by saying it is possible to have terrible opinions and still be a really nice person outside of that, and gives another example of how his own aunt Inga was a friendly person, but also happened to hate gypsies.

->You know, when you grow old you need to have a job.
-->-- Mickan.
->Do I? You don't have a job! Gold Digger isn't a job, anyway.
-->-- Viktor.

->Alex: For fuck sake, Ove! What don’t you understand?! Don’t you get that I don’t have time for you right now?! I have like eighty-seven more important thing than to hang with you. I’m gonna take care of my pregnant wife, that’s more important. I’m gonna buy a new stroller, that’s more important. I’m gonna TAKE A SHIT! That is more important.
->Ove: But I just thought to..
->Alex: But you’re NOT suppose to THINK! You should go home and wonder why nobody wants to hang out with you! Do you know why? Because you’re annoying and greedy. Two not-so-charming characteristics! ”Hi, my name is Ove and I’m annoying and greedy. Wanna hang out?. Oh, sure!”

* GoldDigger: [[ZigZaggedTrope Zig-Zagged]] with Mickan. Alot relies on AlternativeCharacterInterpretation, and it is stated several times that she only married Fredrik for the financial security, but she actually does expess genuine feelings of him in several episodes, such as feeling uncomfort when they try to live separately. It is lampshaded by her own son Viktor in season 6.
->'''Mickan:''' You know, when you grow old you need to have a job.
->'''Viktor:''' Do I? You don't have a job! Gold Digger isn't a job, anyway.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: A recurring trope that creates conflicts for each episode, as the characters tend to either misunderstand things or eachother, overthink things, trying to hard to impress others or simply make unsmart moves.

-->-- Viktor to Mickan when he sais he wants to become a YouTuber.
