- The comic collection Max is holding in this strip is an Ozy and Millie collection.
- "Angry mask inspired by Bowser Jr."
- Star Trek/Red Shirt reference
- Read the Alt Text of this comic. One of the commenters refers to Flanderization.
- Whenever Quincy shows up in the strip, expect World of Warcraft, Dungeons & Dragons, and other such references galore. One strip even managed to combine a DnD reference and a Pokémon reference ("It's a super-effective hit.").
- Tiffany's father is shown wearing a Kingdom of Loathing t-shirt, complete with modified stick figure (and another time outright playing it at work).
- In strip #573, Autumn gives Tiffany a celebrity makeover.
- One long Peanuts reference, especially the alt-text, here.
- Strip #735 unleashes a few in quick succession to, respectively, My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, Gingers Bread, and Code Name: Hunter.
  - #736 ups the ante, referencing Frankie Goes to Hollywood, REM, and pogs.
  - This is followed in the next strip by a Joanna Newsom reference.
- In this comic's alt-text: "Tap softly and carry a big gift."
- In this strip, Ms. Pingo's ever-changing coffee mug provides additional shout out to REM and The B-52's, plus Ten Thousand Maniacs and New Wave music in general.
- It's safe to assume many of the characters are fans of My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic. T-shirts are about everywhere, and Jacob decides to host a party of one, as it were.
