Line 17:
* [[Blind Date]]
* [[Bloody Hilarious]]
* [[Buffy
{{quote| ''"It's like these dates, and numbers, and dates, and numbers, and... numbers, and... I think that's '''the shit''', man."''}}
* [[Chekhov's Gun]]: Literally, with Harry's gun.
* [[The Chew Toy]]: Extreme examples with Ted and Chad. Just about everyone else in the plot is a self-centered sociopath who can't recognize they aren't the most important person in the universe. These two actually decide to help someone else. Think they'll be rewarded for their efforts, or even appreciated? Not in this plot...
* [[Cluster F
* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: Most of the characters in the film. About everything.
* [[Cop Boyfriend]]: Sorta, with Clooney's character.
Line 58:
* [[Oblivious to Love]]: Ted's love for Linda.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Chad, when he hears Harry get something metal that clicks out of the drawer, then sees Harry's empty gun holster. You see him put two and two together just before Harry opens the closet and finds Chad inside.
* [[Only Sane Man]]: The director. It speaks to [[Idiot Plot|what kind of movie this is]] that he [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"|isn't even given a name]].
** Also, Ted, the sole voice of reason amongst his colleagues at Hardbodies - and who is always ignored. Poor Ted.
* [[Precision F
{{quote| "I thought you might be worried...about the security...of your '''shit'''."}}
* [[Properly Paranoid]]: Though [[Wrong Genre Savvy|not for the proper reason]].
