* [[Tropers/Animeking 1108|Animeking 1108]]: While Steve not [[Did Not Get the Girl|getting the girl]] is a very common running gag, it was done rather cruelly in the Halloween episode. Basically, Steve takes [[Asian and Nerdy|Toshi's]] sister, Akiko, out Trick-or-treating, but [[My Sister Is Off -Limits|under a curfew]]. After spending some time, building up to a potential relationship, and even talking Toshi out of being so over protective, you'd think Steve would [[Throw the Dog A Bone|finally get this one]], right? Wrong. Why, you may ask? Because Akiko went for [[Ass Pull|a random nine year-old kid who didn't appear until the end with no foreshadowing what-so-ever]]. I mean, I know Steve not getting the girl happens all the time, but at least the reasons were explainable and foreshadowed. This time, the writers just wanted to see Steve miserable.
** Couldn't agree more. I mean some Foreshadowing would have at least been nice. The guy stands up for her and get her some more freedom from Toshi and she ignores that in favor of a kid, who can dance. I mean the kid's got moves don't get me wrong but a quick 3 second moment earlier in the story, Akiko mentioning him at least ONCE beforehand, something! The guy getting the rug pulled out from under him is a regular occurrence but this just seemed really uncalled for. - blitz2441
* [[Blue Rose]]: You thought they were trying to make Steve miserable in that episode? Try "Big Trouble in Little Langley." Let's see: Steve [[Fingore|blew his thumb off]] and [[Animals Hate Him|kept getting pecked by a crow that tried taking his severed thumb]]. [[Throw the Dog A Bone|But just when he finally got his thumb reattatched]], the girl of the week decided to let Steve touch her breast. [[Yank the Dog's Chain|However, his hand was still numb from the drugs.]] When Steve pointed out that he couldn't feel anything, the girl [[A Cup Angst|took it as an insult.]] Finally, to add insult to injury, the crow starts pecking at him again. Jesus Crispity Crunching Christ! The writers must really hate him or something.
