Line 674:
* [[Real Joke Name]]: Doctor Quack in ''The Daffy Doc''
* [[Rearrange the Song]]: There are different arrangements of each of the Merrie Melodies and Looney Tunes opening themes. In particular, "Merrily We Roll Along" and "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" got a ton of adjustments over the years.
** During the late 1930s the theme songs oftentimes varied from cartoon to cartoon (particularly in the case of "Merrily We Roll Along"), while all-new arrangements came for the next season. This came to a halt in 1939, when both subseries adopted fully finalized theme tunes, and solidified in 1941 when arguably the most well known, brass-heavy themes (with "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" also becoming noticeably faster paced) were adopted right at the start of the series' "Golden Age", which spans from 1941 to 1955. From there on, the biggest rearrangement was the theme tunes being shortened to fit longer credits that listed a significantly larger portion of the production crew in 1945, and from thereon after they were rearranged about once per decade (in 1955 and in 1964).
* [[Rebus Bubble]] combined with [[Talking with Signs]] gets you Bugs' mockery of his foes by holding up a sign with "(picture of a screw) + (picture of a baseball)" or a picture of bats circling a belfry.
* [[Recitation Handclasp]]: Giovanni Jones (the fat opera singer) assumes this posture in "Long Haired Hare."
