* FaceOfTheBand: It was Chris Butler’s band, but Patty is undeniably the face. Patty stressed in interviews that even though Chris was the songwriter, she contributed her own experience to the band as well, and wasn’t simply a male songwriter’s mouthpiece.

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: The video for "I Know What Boys Like" starts with Patty Donahue having a puff of her cigarette, as a part of her {{Everygirl}} image. Donahue really was a heavy smoker, and she'd pass away to lung cancer at the end of 1996.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Chris Butler claimed in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsuRpGQPAMk this interview with NME]] that even after all these years, "Christmas Wrapping" still puts him in a better mood when he hears it on the radio, even during the most stressful of holiday seasons.
