* [[Archive Panic]]: We're talkin' about a character who has appeared in a considerable quantity of videogames, thousands of newspaper strips, a frickin' helluva lot in animation, and an absolutely ''monstrous'' amount in comic book stories...which have been released in a non-stop basis since 1934 and are unlikely to ever stop as long as The [[Walt Disney]] Company operates.
* [[Crack Isis Cheaper]]: Don's ([[Keep Circulating the Tapes|almost]]) complete filmography of animated shorts is available through The Chronological Donald sets on the Walt Disney Treasures. You can easily snatch the four volumes via Amazon, if you have ''307 bucks'' or so laying around. If you live outside of the US, prepare to add shipping costs to your paycheck...
** Relax, only two [[Dork Age|60's shorts]] are missing from them.
** That's almost laughably cheap compared to [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Collected_Works_of_Carl_Barks:The Collected Works of Carl Barks|The Collected Works of Carl Barks]], and that is ''if'' you can find them at all. Just a year ago in Denmark, only one box ammounted to 200 euros...There are 10 boxes. [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill|Plus 13 more euros for postage, for each box.]]
*** [[Fantagraphics Books]] is doing its own domestic reprint series of Barks' stories that promises to be significantly cheaper.
* [[Ear Worm]]: ''"Who's got the sweetest disposition?"'' Listen to it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jRILvxnf94 here!]
Line 11:
*** Along with him saying, "[[Large Ham|Power, power, POWER!]]" and then laughing evilly. The sharp teeth certainly didn't help when he was laughing evilly.
** Donald ''roaring and taking a hugs bite out of wood'' in "Donald's Double Trouble".
** His nervous breakdown in [[Fun and Fancy Free (Disney)|Mickey and the Beanstalk]].
* [[Older Than They Think]]: The name Donald Duck first appeared in a written poem, ''More Hoozoo'' in 1931. (However, the illustrated duck did not resemble the character as we know him.)
** This is bound to happen to any youngster that discovers Donald through his [[House of Mouse|more]] [[Mickey Mouse Clubhouse|modern]] [[Kingdom Hearts|appear]][[Epic Mickey|ances]] and takes time to realize the character is [[Long Runner|77 years old]].
* [[Unpopular Popular Character]]
* [[WereWe're Still Relevant, Dammit!]]: In ''computer.don'', Donald is depicted as being pathetically behind the times (having a rotary phone and an old fashioned ice box that Goofy stops by to refill), and is repeatedly labeled a dweeb because of it.
