Line 40:
* [[Token Minority]]: Paul, <s>Eminem's</s> Jimmy's homosexual co-worker.
** Who Jimmy ends up defending from a homophobic co-worker:
{{quote| '''Jimmy''': Paul may be gay, but ''you're'' the faggot.}}
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: The rap battles in the movie are these but in musical form. In fact, the point of winning is that you need to give a ''better'' "reason you suck" speech than your opponent. Jimmy then turns this on its head in the final rap battle and delivers a "Reason ''I'' Suck" speech toward Papa Doc, specifically so that he couldn't give one of these back at Jimmy. {{spoiler|It worked.}}
{{quote| '''Jimmy''' {{spoiler|I'm a piece of fucking white trash. I say it proudly. Here, tell these people something they don't know about me.}}}}
* [[The Unfair Sex]]: {{spoiler|When <s>[[Overly Long Gag|Eminem]]</s> Jimmy catches his girl Alex sleeping with Wink...he beats up the guy and does nothing to Alex.}}
** Then again, Wink had been a longtime friend of his, making the betrayal arguably worse.
