Line 96:
* [[Doing It for The Art]]: AND HOW!
* [[Dramatic Necklace Removal]]: Kinda. Zib grabs Mitzi's pearl necklace. When she pulls away, the necklace breaks and the pearls go everywhere. He didn't do it on purpose, however.
* [[Early -Bird Cameo]]: Wick and Mordecai both appear during the flashback in strip 2 of the comic. They join the cast proper in strips 25 and 27, respectively.
** Asa Sweet has a ''very'' early cameo as well. He isn't formally introduced until about 3/4s of the way through the first volume, but if you look close you can see him in the crowd attending Atlas May's funeral.
* [[Estrogen Brigade Bait]]: Zib seems to be turning into quite the competition for Mordecai over the title of Fan Darling.
Line 122:
** [[The Sixth Ranger]]: Wick
* [[The Flapper]]: Ivy
* [[Four Eyes, Zero Soul]]: Mordecai.
* [[Four-Fingered Hands]]: Justified, since they're all cats.
* [[Friend to All Living Things]]: Tracy herself. As evidenced by her most recent (as of 08/23/2010) journal entry on her deviantArt page, Tracy has recently 'unofficially adopted' her neighbor's cat Luca after she found the poor creature barely alive with several serious facial injuries and a myriad of infections. She took Luca to the vet to have him humanely euthanized, but then found it in her heart (and wallet) to pay for his many many surgeries, antibiotic treatments, and pain medication. The result: Luca is now living happily with Tracy as a sort of bizarre IRL counterpart to Viktor as Luca lost an eye to infection and is generally chewed up body wise. So Tracy is not only a splendid artist, but a splendid human being in general.
Line 191:
* [[Offhand Backhand]]: Not exactly a backhand, but Viktor still pulls off something with the same sentiment. [http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/comic.php?comicid=88 When incapacitated]. Poor Rocky just can't catch a break.
* [[Oireland]]: Aunt Nina
* [[Old -Fashioned Rowboat Date]]: Mitzi and Wick had one... sort of. And by 1920s standards, it was quite old-fashioned.
* [[Only Known By Their Nickname]]: Calvin "Freckle" McMurray.
 
Line 218:
* [[Scrapbook Story]]: Freckle has kept every letter his cousin has ever sent him-even the very few we're shown on [http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/comic.php?comicid=94 this page] paint a very descriptive picture of what Rocky's been up to since he left home (and explains a few things about his shenanigans as an employee of the Lackadaisy speakeasy).
* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]: Rocky and [http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=215 Mordecai].
* [[Sharp -Dressed Man]]: [[Wicked Cultured|Mordecai]] and [[Gentleman and A Scholar|Sedgewick]] in particular. [[Estrogen Brigade Bait|God bless the 20's.]]
* [[Ship Tease]]: The artist made a few pages addressed to fans discussing the characters reactions to shippers. Specifically [http://www.lackadaisycats.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=337 Ivy and Viktor] and [http://www.lackadaisycats.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=338 Viktor and Mordecai].
* [[Shirtless Scene]]: Any time any of the men take off their shirt to reveal their sleeveless undershirts, they gain +5 sex appeal.
Line 239:
* [[The Stoic]]: Viktor.
* [[Stoic Spectacles]]: Mordecai.
* [[Stop Helping Me!]]: [http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/comic.php?comicid=46 Rocky's face] when Freckle explains why the pig farmers are trashing the club.
* [[Take That]]: [http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=333 The expressions tutorial] would dissuade aspiring artists from relying on [[Dull Surprise]], [[Animesque|anime cues]], and "Dreamworks face" as regular crutches.
** One section of that expressions tutorial looks like it's specifically referencing [[Ctrl Alt Del|a certain famous webcomic with bland expressions.]]
Line 258:
== U-Z ==
* [[Ugly Guy, Hot Wife]]: Depends on your taste in women, but Elsa seems to be easier on the eyes than Bobby.
* [[Unfortunate Names]]: Honestly, why would someone as Irish Catholic as Nina name her son ''[http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:Calvinism |Calvin]]''?
** Calvin is named after one of the author's cats. Not an in-story explanation, but still...
** Perhaps there is nothing quite like an unfortunate name to instill some good ol' Catholic guilt....
Line 266:
'''Zib:''' Alright. [[Deadpan Snarker|I'm glad we]] [[Sarcasm Mode|settled that.]] }}
* [[The Vamp]]: Mitzi has qualities of this, especially when she's with Wick.
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: The former dynamic duo of Viktor and Mordecai; while not exactly 'best buds', both had a tentative respect for each other's existence. Considering the kind of people [[Sociopathic Hero|Viktor]] and [[Four Eyes, Zero Soul|Mordecai]] are, a vague kinda-you-sorta respect is probably the closest thing to 'friendship' either one is capable of.
** The two actually spent time together out of work, if [http://www.lackadaisycats.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=327 this mini-comic] can be trusted.
