Line 9:
* [[Informed Judaism]]: No part of Phil's act involves, say, attending a synagogue, or anything other than just saying he's Jewish. There is next to no discussion about what religious Jews actually believe or actual cultural traits. It's one of the stranger uses of this trope, considering.
* [[Some of My Best Friends Are X]]: When one of Phil's coworkers tries this after assuming Phil would've been in P.R. during [[World War Two|the war]] as opposed to having been a G.I., Anne has a succint reply:
{{quote| '''Anne Dettrey''': I know dear, and some of your other best friends are Methodist, but you never bother to say it.}}
* [[Stop Being Stereotypical]]: Phil's secretary, Elaine Wales/Estelle Wilovsky. She's unhappy that she couldn't get a job under her real name, but when Phil arranges for the magazine to have fairer hiring practices, she's immediately concerned that more "kikey" Jews will ruin the job for the "good ones," like Phil and herself. Phil does not take kindly to this.
* [[Who Names Their Kid "Dude"?]]: Minify's opinion of Phil's pen name. He claims he wouldn't give it to a dog.
