{{quote| "Welcome to Baskin Bobbin's!"}}

Line 32:
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: You can hardly go for five minutes without tripping over one. Some character names fall into this as well, most prominently with Bud (the) Wizard.
* [[Knight Errant]]: Eric would very much like to consider himself one.
* [[Knock -Knock Joke]]: There are several to be heard, all of them equally [[Incredibly Lame Pun|cringe-worthy]].
* [[Love Goddess]]: You can meet the Goddess of Beauty among the many other expies of the Greek gods and goddesses you encounter. Good luck actually getting her to make love to you!
* [[Non Sequitur Thud]]: Used as a [[Running Gag]], Eric ends up losing consciousness at the end of every day/chapter.
Line 40:
* [[Physical God]]: The Greek mythology is present in the setting, except that, well, it's an obstructive bureaucracy.
* [[Poor Mans Porn]]: There are some tittilating woodcuts of the famous singer Lily on sale at the fair.
* [[Rape, Pillage and Burn]]: One of the examples from [[Grumpy Old Man]] talk.
{{quote| "...so the rest of us could rush in to kill all the livestock and rape the women. Or was it the other way around?"}}
* [[Red Herring]]: The Wavenous Waven of Wangoon is set up as a monster you might have to defeat in your adventures. It's never mentioned again after the first time.
