''[[Cox and Combes' Washington]]'' is a 2½-minute long musical short created by [[Brad Neely]]. The short was what first garnered Neely the attention of Super Deluxe.com. As its name suggests the short centered around a [[Memetic Badass]] revision of [[George Washington]] as narrated by the [[Creased Comics]] characters Cox and Combes. The short derives its humor mostly from visual gags and the larger than larger than life exploits of George Washington.

The Short includes the following tropes:
* [[Acid Pool]]: Washington dunks an opponent's wife's hand into a jar of acid. [[Up to Eleven|At a party]].
* [[Ambiguously Gay]]: Cox and Combes seem a bit too concerned with how many testicles and/or penises George Washington possessed.
Line 11:
* [[Big Eater]]: At one point Washington apparently eats the entire rear half of a nearby deer with a single bite.
* [[Brain Food]]

* [[Even the Guys Want Him]]: Go on guess who.
