** In a side-story: [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20090619 Flopsy, Mopsy, and Nietzsche].

* [[
* [[Alien Geometries]]: ...''what'' is Agatha holding in [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20120109 Panel 3??]
** [[Don't Explain the Joke|It's a three-pronged blivit]].
Line 99:
** Jägers are highly destructive, if not malicious, but "no-longer-a-Jäger" Vole manages to be axe crazy [[Up to Eleven|even]] by [[Blood Knight|their standards]].
** This is also pretty much a requirement for every Spark, especially when in their "madness place". The Heterodynes (with the exception of [[Big Good|the Heterodyne Boys]] and Agatha) deserve special mention [[Up to Eleven|for being batshit insane even by Spark standards]].
* [[Back
** [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20100514 "Seriously? The old 'bring her family back from the GRAVE gambit? Have you no SHAME?"]
** The simplest cure for some ailments. {{spoiler|Zulenna got this ordered for her by Klaus.}}
Line 231:
** [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20090812 "Did you know he really] [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20110504 likes waffles?"]
* [[Calling Your Attacks]]: Done by {{spoiler|Zola}} under the influence of a massive overdose of battle stimulants, resulting in a cry of "Chophead Tinybits!"
* [[Came Back Wrong]]: Subverted. Apparently being brought [[Back
{{quote|'''Moloch:''' Uh... [[Look Behind You!|hey, check it out]].
'''{{spoiler|Tarvek}}:''' Good Heavens. }}
Line 290:
* [[Cool and Unusual Punishment]]: Mamma Gkika wants you to remember that [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20110518 it's bad to hit women or to wake her up too early in the morning.]
* [[Covert Pervert]]: Zeetha [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20080418 could have told him he wasn't wearing pants earlier].
* [[Crapsack World]]: The world is dominated by people and things who'd fit right in with ''[[Warhammer
{{quote|'''[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date{{=}}20110204 Rudolf Selnikov]:''' The depressing thing? ''Twisted and ruthless'' as you people are, throwing in with ''you'' is a step ''up''.}}
** Alternatively, [[A World Half Full]]. Europa has mostly recovered from a devastating genocidal war that employed mad science bioweapons just decades ago, and is ruled by an extremely intelligent benevolent dictator who keeps the peace and lets most people get on with their lives. There are systems in place to contain the mad monstrosities that arise, and the people {{spoiler|Othar}} has killed (usually) had it coming.
Line 375:
** [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070727 "Fool! Never total your points out loud!"]
** [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20100305 And another one here], although frankly Moloch didn't deserve it; it's just that Sparks hate having their melodramatics cut short by perfectly mundane solutions.

* [[Double Entendre]]
