* MicroDieting: Exaggerated in Issue 10. At lunchtime, Cheerleader declares that the girls should get ready to eat "NO FOOD!!" with So and So adding that "eating lunch is for weirdos." The Ugly One then sidles up carrying a tray piled high with corn kernels, declaring that "it's Corn and Corn Alone Day!"

Cool Loser TRS cleanup, has been renamed to Unconvincingly Unpopular Character and is a YMMV audience reaction.


* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: A platonic example. It's well-established early on that [[AlphaBitch Cheerleader]] and [[CoolLoser What’s Her Face]] have a very strained relationship, with Cheerleader frequently finding ways to specifically exclude What’s Her Face from things the Squad does together. However, a TGS-themed EasterEgg in "[[Recap/StrongBadEmailE141DeathMetal death metal]]" shows the two genuinely getting along.

* CoolLoser: What’s Her Face. Her [[DeadpanSnarker sense of snark]], [[OnlySaneMan common sense]], and {{Woobie}} status have made her [[UnpopularPopularCharacter the most popular of the Squad within the fandom]]. Hell, she was [[https://web.archive.org/web/20100510090853/tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CoolLoser the image for the Cool Loser page]] at one point. Given these traits, you start to wonder why she isn't popular in-universe as well.



* InformedAttribute: In their first few appearances, the characters were clearly based on teenage girl archetypes (AlphaBitch, GoGetterGirl, CoolLoser, {{Cloudcuckoolander}}) but didn't actually display them and mostly just spouted inane dialogue in between being murdered. This was averted later on.

** When Cheerleader shames the girls for only getting the Gregs to take them to prom in Issue 15, they in turn are weirded out when she reveals Cheerleader Brian will be her date. So-And-So likens that to going to the prom with your dad.

* EveryoneHasStandards: In spite of his tendency to violently kill off the main cast on most occasions, Strong Bad sounds very uncomfortable with killing off any of the young child characters in Issue 7. While Tompkins and Cheerleader both die, Strong Bad doesn't actually show a scene depicting Tompkins' demise (he even sounds unsure of how to kill him off), and Cheerleader's death (see "Belly Flop Crushing" above) is relatively tame by TGS standards.

* DangerousInterrogative: In one comic, the girls are celebrating "Valentime's Day", though So and So pronounces "Valentine's" correctly. Throughout the toon, Cheerleader is hunting for "cards from boys" so she won't lose her "Mindy cred". She becomes desperate when she doesn't seem to be making a lot of headway:
-->'''Cheerleader:''' [[SeriousBusiness Valentimes is serious times!]]\\
'''So and So:''' ''(annoyed) -tines.''\\
'''Cheerleader:''' ''(angrily) Whaaaat?''\\
'''So and So:''' Valen[[SuddenlyShouting TINE'S! T-I-N]]--\\
''[[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext (A racecar driven by a fork drives up)]]''\\
'''Narrator Strong Bad:''' ''(imitating a car engine)'' Tines, tines, tines...\\
''(The racecar runs over So and So, killing her)''\\
'''Narrator Strong Bad:''' TINES!\\
'''Cheerleader:''' ...As I was saying, Vamlumtimes Day is serious times.
