* RunningTheAsylum: [=MacNelly=] originally wrote most of the strip himself, but after fans began submitting their own gags, it was changed so that all the scripts were user-submitted.

* RecycledScript: Many Pluggerisms get recycled over time because two different readers send in essentially the same line:
** The premise of a "Plugger beeper" being a microwave timer was used ''three times'' between 2001 and 2003.
** TheComicsCurmudgeon pointed out that [[http://joshreads.com/images/08/04/i080404pluggers.gif April 4, 2008]] was essentially repeated only [[http://joshreads.com/images/08/09/i080901pluggers.gif five months later]].
** Sometimes a strip is intentionally recycled, with the only difference being that the "Thanks to..." panel reads "A Classic thanks to..."

* LoveItOrHateIt: A pretty sizeable {{Hatedom}} for the strip exists, mainly consisting of anyone outside of the blue-collar baby boomer demographic the strip ostensibly claims to speak for. TheComicsCurmudgeon, in particular, loves to rip on it, and his review occasionally notes that the strip is manufactured by men who do not fit into the ''Pluggers'' demographic at all.
