* AnAesop: He tends to give a few lessons in his videos:
** '''My Girlfriend, My Best Friend and the Barfy Beach Date''': Understand the difference between real life and fiction. Content creators are just average people at the end of the day with their own struggles and personal relationships. Don't hold them to a gold standard or let fan fiction overshadow this fact.
** '''Conventions (I Miss Them)''': While talking about his time at a furry convention, he tells the audience how wrong it is to violate someone's personal space. Stating that he wanted to scream when a moose furry grabbed his waist in an elevator.
** '''Life is Fun''': The meaning of life is in the eye of the beholder, nobody has the definitive answer to what is the meaning of life. Pessimistic or optimistic, your opinion is yours and you shouldn't force people to conform to it.
** '''Good Person''': Being a good person requires doing good for the sake of doing good. You are not a good person if you only do good deeds for merit from social media or [[WantsAPrizeForBasicDecency to brag about doing the bare minimum]].
** '''My Thoughts on Gambling''': Gambling can be fun if you do it responsibly. Never bet more than you're willing to lose, know when to stop, and don't expect to make money doing it because the house always wins.

** In "Talking to Strangers," one shot has him walking up to someone like [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure DIO confronting Jotaro]].

** '''My Thoughts on Gambling''': Gambling can be fun if you do it responsibly. Never bet more than you're willing to lose and don't expect to make money doing it.

* TheAntinihilist: The theme of "Life is Fun", life is chaotic and one of the most depressing aspects of life comes from the things we can't control or predict. However, that shouldn't mean you can't enjoy life or appreciate the things within it. If you're comfortable with the knowledge that life is inherently meaningless and uncontrollable then don't force your beliefs on people who'd rather live in blissful ignorance.

* BaitAndSwitchComment: In "Hobbies", when he's saying that doing extra activities not only teaches you important skills, but it also teaches you what your interests are, he then mentions he tried ballet, and then he says now he can say with confidence... that ballet is not for him.

** In "My Poetry Teacher", James jokingly says he and his sister had to go to prep school due to "having powers". In this cutaway, James is dressed as ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} and his sister is dressed as ComicBook/JubileeMarvelComics.

* LongTitle: His book is named ''The Odd 1s Out: How to Be Cool and Other Things I Definitely Learned from Growing Up''.

-->'''James:''' We ended up naming the boy cat Spot, the other cat we named Pepper, and the calico.. we didn't change her name. We named her Calico. That's like naming a dog Golden Retriever or Chihuahua.

-->'''Child James:''' Uhh.. 9, ''idiot!''

-->'''Child James:''' Aw..

'''Guy #2:''' We don't.. we don't wear any clothes.\\

-->'''James:''' Well, enough about you going down in history, Rudolph! I'm gonna make my ''own'' song about... Prancer!

Okay, I'll stop.
