* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Lloyd is shown at the start of each video doing something usually [[Real Men Wear Pink|heartwarming]] until he hears the story. Then he gets ''[[Berserk Button|pissed.]]'' |

* [[Call Back]]: Of a sort. Some of Lloyd's lyrics are quoted straight from the commented story or put a spin on them, and said comment is always shown before the actual rap starts. Here's a good example from episode 5: |

* [[Early Installment Weirdness]]: The first dis rap was a lot slower than future ones and didn't have nearly as many instances of [[Fun with Subtitles]]. Somewhat more subtley, the camera also moves around a bit rather than being stationary like in other episodes, and the lyrics that show up on screen were sometimes wrong. |

* [[Sequel Escalation]]: Lloyd's violent acts in the [[Cold Open]]. In the first episode, he just downs a cup of coffee and rips up some paper. By episode five, he has taken to ''shooting people with lasers.'' (Though the first one was [[Accidental Murder|an accident]] and the second was to a heckler.) |
