1* HilariousInHindsight: Bishop Brennan mentions that people have been coming from as far away as Poland to see ''The Passion of St. Tibulus'', which in 1995 seems unusual. After Poland joined the EU in 2004, many people came to live in Ireland, though lured by work as opposed to a smutty film.
2* MemeticMutation: "'''[[http://themediablog.typepad.com/.a/6a011570c131b2970c0133f459d8fa970b-pi CAREFUL NOW]]''' and '''"[[http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4144/5003900000_864a4d8a3a.jpg DOWN WITH THIS SORT OF THING]]"''' has been photographed at many real life protests. Regardless of the actual tone of demonstration. Plus, it's available as a t-shirt and gets a ShoutOut in ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV GTA V]]''. When he first heard of the signs appearing, Graham Linehan tweeted how "immensely proud" he was that his work has had such a cultural impact.
3* {{Squick}}: Father Jack's earwax being used to make candles.
4* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The mention of ''The Passion of St. Tibulus'' becoming the cinema's most successful film since ''[[Film/JurassicPark1993 Jurassic Park]]'' instantly dates this episode to the mid-90s. ''[[Film/Titanic1997 Titanic]]'' became the highest-grossing film in history in 1998, overtaking ''Jurassic Park'', and has itself since been surpassed by ''Film/{{Avatar}}'' and then ''Film/AvengersEndgame''.
