- Fan Nickname: Papa is known primarily as "Spaghet Bear" by the meme community.
- Fountain of Memes: Practically everything Papa Bear says or does has become meme fodder, and not just the famous line below.
- Memetic Mutation: "SOMEBODY TOUCHA MY SPAGHET!"
- Signature Scene: The scene where Papa Bear discovers somebody touched his spaghetti.
- Values Dissonance: Hammy and memetic though he may be, Papa's stereotypical Italian mannerisms weren't flattering at the time, and can come off as even crueler by today's standards.
- Vindicated by History: Until 2018, it was just one of many obscure standalone cartoons pumped out by a non-Disney or Warner studio in the early days of The Golden Age of Animation. It only became popular after the aforementioned line went memetic.
- Watch It for the Meme: Would you have known about this cartoon, much less be interested in watching it, if it wasn't for the spaghetti meme?
