* BunnyEarsLawyer: Chimneyfoot is an unemployed, raging alcoholic, but he's also an extraordinary mathematician. The Great One collects hot dogs, but almost single-handedly keeps the world from ending.

* PeekABangs: Simone's left eye is forever hidden behind her hair.

%%* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: See GreekChorus, below.

* GreekChorus: The [[EverythingsBetterWithPenguins penguins]]. They seem to know about, and comment on, everything going on in the strip, but they're almost never ''involved'' in the slightest.

* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: Self-Aware Dinosaur.
* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: See GreekChorus, below.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: The Characters page currently lists 27, but there are a lot more than that.

* JerkAss: Dave, but [[RealityWarper don't tell him I said that.]]

''[[http://mountaincomics.com/ Mountain Time]]'' is a very strange StickFigureComic by Chris Combs. It consists mainly of non sequiturs, deriving much of its humour from such bizarre events as [[http://mountaincomics.com/2011/10/24/mountain-time-306/ a man removing his heart and turning it into macaroni salad]], [[http://mountaincomics.com/comic/mt643/ a woman whose silverware keeps getting stolen by ghosts]], [[RuleOfThree and]] [[http://mountaincomics.com/comic/mt934/ a salesman peddling hills as the latest new thing]]. The comic is often completely incomprehensible, but the author claims that [[MindScrew it always has a symbolic meaning]]. [[TheWalrusWasPaul He's probably making it up]]. We hope.

* BilingualBonus: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2013/04/22/mountain-time-447/ TORTHOS]], [[NoIndoorVoice EMPEROR OF THE INFERNAL REALM OF IUCUNDUM PRATI]]. "Iucundum Prati" is slightly mangled Latin for [[spoiler: Pleasant Meadows]].

* BizarroUniverse: By flipping the Mountain Time logo upside down, [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/07/23/mountain-time-375/ River Valley Time was born]]. Much unease followed.
* BleepDammit: Censor bars over [[http://mountaincomics.com/2013/11/11/mountain-time-493/ stick-figure nudity]] don't actually accomplish much.
* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: Attorney, architect, doctor, cop, doctor cop, attornitect, lava puncher, [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/11/15/mountain-time-408/ etc.]]

* DadaComics: To varying degrees. [[http://mountaincomics.com/2010/05/25/mountain-time-172/ Here]] is a strong example.
* DidYouDie: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/03/29/mountain-time-345/ three times.]]
* DrinkingGame: A very easy game was described in the notes under [[http://mountaincomics.com/2010/01/14/the-sink-that-destroyed-fear-but-was-not-a-sink/ this comic]], the rules simply being: drink any time you're reading Mountain Time.

* FateWorseThanDeath: Dave tricks someone into trapping himself in the five (but not fifth) dimension, where he faces a [[http://mountaincomics.com/2011/07/07/mountain-time-280/ very long]] and [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment cruel punishment]].

* FinishDialogueInUnison: Regarding what appears to be a faulty [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin crime]] [[http://mountaincomics.com/2011/05/30/shorts-blaster/ ring]].

* HurricaneOfPuns: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2013/05/23/mountain-time-455/ Pillow Cop]] is good at causing them. He's soft, but not on crime. But that's just the cop side of him -- his other side is really cool.

* KonamiCode: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2009/12/22/mountain-time-141/ The Contra Waltz.]]
* LiteralMinded: The guy who isn't Dave in [[http://mountaincomics.com/2009/02/09/mountain-time-1/ the very first comic]], and many others.
** And then Dave [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/09/27/mountain-time-394/ here]].

* MeatOVision: Happens to [[ItMakesSenseInContext George Washington]] in the [[http://mountaincomics.com/2014/01/03/mountain-time-516/ 26th century]].
* MindScrew: Quite often, really, but especially [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/04/05/mountain-time-346/ here]].
** [[http://mountaincomics.com/2011/02/06/destroy-all-mountain-time-242s/ This one]] also stands out.

--> '''Haywood:''' How is Mario fat? Dude runs everywhere and only eats mushrooms!\\

* NotWhatItLooksLike: played straight, and then, [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/09/13/mountain-time-390/ um...]]

* ShoutOut: There are many, but [[http://mountaincomics.com/2013/08/15/mountain-time-474/ this one]] to [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]] is among the most notable.
** To say nothing of a [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/10/25/mountain-time-401/ surprisingly detailed]] [[Series/DoctorWho Dalek]] in a stick figure comic.

* SnapBack: Otherwise everyone would be dead, like, thrice. There was even a time when Helen Hunt [[BeyondTheImpossible killed more people than live on Earth]]. [[http://mountaincomics.com/2010/10/04/the-unstartled-giraffe-12/ Traffic was still bad.]] Afterward, the world was no worse for the wear.

* StealthPun: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2013/01/21/mountain-time-425/ David Tennant's chewing gum]] is [[ChewingTheScenery scenery-flavoured]].

* TinTyrant: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2013/04/22/mountain-time-447/ TORTHOS]], [[NoIndoorVoice EMPEROR OF THE INFERNAL REALM OF IUCUNDUM PRATI]].
* TitleDrop: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/02/20/mountain-time-333/ No, it's Mountain Time.]]

* XDaysSince: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/02/06/mountain-time-329/ Being a supervillain.]]

* WavingSignsAround: [[http://mountaincomics.com/2012/12/06/mountain-time-414/ Branching off]] from the the whole "John 3:16" idea.

* WasOnceAman: Surf Rat, before he turned into Surf Rat in the first comic

''[[http://mountaincomics.com/ Mountain Time]]'' is a very strange StickFigureComic by Chris Combs. It consists mainly of non sequiturs, deriving much of its humour from such bizarre events as [[http://mountaincomics.com/2011/10/24/mountain-time-306/ a man removing his heart and turning it into macaroni salad]], [[http://mountaincomics.com/2009/03/02/mountain-time-10/ a woman sleeping with Burkina Faso]], [[RuleOfThree and]] [[http://mountaincomics.com/comic/mt934/ a salesman peddling hills as the latest new thing]]. The comic is often completely incomprehensible, but the author claims that [[MindScrew it always has a symbolic meaning]]. [[TheWalrusWasPaul He's probably making it up]]. We hope.

** 1958's ''Film/TheFly'' gets an absurd homage in [[http://mountaincomics.com/comic/mt741/ this comic]].

* TheAlcoholic: Chimneyfoot drinks more than humanly possible, but then, he isn't a human.
