{{tropelist}}
* [[Abnormal Ammo]]: Jeff's homemade bullets. See [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill]] below.
Line 19 ⟶ 18:
* [[Click. "Hello."]]: [[Combat Pragmatist|Jeff]] skips the "click" and goes straight to "blow you messily in half".
{{quote|'''Jeff:''' Hi!
<nowiki>*
<nowiki>*
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Half of Mr. T's dialogue consists of quotes from ''[[The A-Team]]''. At one point, his tendency to randomly throw people/animals/inanimate objects into orbit leads Jeff to commit him to a sanitarium.
* [[Combat Pragmatist]]: Jeff and Mr. Saturn find themselves confronted by the [[Boss Rush]] teleporter room from [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]]. Rather than battle every opponent, Mr. Saturn fires his gun into each teleporter, killing anyone on the other side.
Line 68 ⟶ 67:
* [[Running Gag]]: Any nuclear explosion will have [[Hello Kitty|Hello Kitty's]] face in it. Why? ''[[Rule of Funny|Because.]]''
* [[Schedule Slip]]: A two year gap exists between #133 and #134. The same length of time passes in the comic itself while the protagonists are left standing in the same spot, eventually growing extremely long hair and beards.
* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here
* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]
* [[Shouldn't We Be in School Right Now?]]: Averted - Ness and Pokey are arrested for their [[EarthBound|extremely long absence]] from school and are forced to gain their [[GE Ds]] before they can continue their adventures.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Far, far too many to list.
* [[Solve the Soup Cans]]
* [[Sonic Scream]]: [[Humongous Mecha|TV's Frank]] can stop lasers and defuse missiles with his trademark "EEEUUC-OOEEOO!" Somehow.
* [[Sprite Comic]]
