Revision as of 17:18, 7 August 2014
- Crowning Moment of Funny - Before launching into the incredibly short and incredibly simple "Short Songs", Jello yells: "Rick Wakeman, eat your heart out!"
- And "Nazi Punks Fuck Off!" starts with "Nazi Punks Fuck Off, overproduced by Martin Hannett, take four".
- "Night Of The Living Rednecks", Biafra's quite funny tale of how he once dealt with being harassed after a show, as told over improvised bebop jazz from Flouride and Peligro.

"...and I thought, this is Oregon, huh? Tolerant Oregon?" |

- And the whole "Pull My Strings" affair, mixed with Crowning Moment of Awesome. They hijacked a music awards ceremony with a song tearing the music industry a new one, and the song's chorus is "Is my cock big enough? Is my brain small enough? For you to make me a star? Give me a toot/I'll sell you my soul. Pull my strings and I'll go far." And the crowd loved it.
- Face of the Band - Jello Biafra.
- Fanon Discontinuity - No Dead Kennedys without Jello Biafra. It just can't be!
- Hilarious in Hindsight - considering the direction the subject in question is going to, you'd be more and more rooting for their song "MTV - Get off the Air".
- Also, now that Jerry Brown is Governor of California again, "California Über Alles" is actually relevant for the first time in 30 years.
- Misaimed Fandom - There were quite a few neo-nazi fans who didn't realize "Kill The Poor" was supposed to be a sarcastic song.
- Narm - "Religious Vomit", a rather ham-fisted Take That against...well, against religion. "All religions make me wanna throw up! All religions make me SICK! All religions make me wanna throw up! All religions suuuck."
- Painful Rhyme - "I am Emperor Ronald Reagan/Born again with fascist cravings" (from "We've Got a Bigger Problem Now", The Remake of "California Über Alles").
- "It's the suede denim secret police/They have come for your uncool niece" (The original "California Über Alles")
