* [[Beyond the Impossible]]: Alex's sleight of hand in "It's Magic" starts out realistic (using real card tricks), then gets increasingly ridiculous until he is somehow able to replace his entire [[Magic ~~the~~ Gathering|MtG]] deck with a red one.

Line 27:

* [[Comedic Sociopathy]]: The huge creepy doll Tally made for Graham as James' Secret Santa present, as Graham is terrified by it.

* [[Convenience Store Gift Shopping]]: A very specific kind in [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/loadingreadyrun/2564-Santa-Secrets Santa Secrets], where everybody except James and Morgan buys everybody else a Magic: The Gathering booster pack. Hilariously, Morgan's gift, the only one which was bought from a convenience store, was the only gift which was appreciated by its recipient (James).

* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: When the crew gets back into [[Magic ~~the~~ Gathering|Magic]], we get a montage of Jer, Graham, Matt, and James trying to play against Alex.

** Tim really had to leave the group, though it was to get married, not due to realizing how terrible they were.

** During a LRRcast, Graham revealed that the episode probably most based on real life was "The Gay Chicken". Virtually everything in that episode really happened at some point, with the exception of Tally being led to believe that "gay chicken" was Bill's D&D character. Including how Bill eventually won.

Line 91:

* [[Stylistic Suck]]: Graham Stark himself mentions on the DVD commentary that the [[Loading Ready Run]] of the [[Commodore HUSTLE]] universe seems to be mostly comprised of fart, poop and ball kick jokes with added pelvic thrusts. Probably also doubles as self-deprecation.
