Line 13:
* [[Author Appeal]]: [http://reallifecomics.com/archive/061017.html When it's time] for another [[Limited Wardrobe]] change, real Greg puts Liz in a [[Playboy Bunny|bunny outfit]], and comments "Fans be damned... this one's for '''''me'''''."
* [[Author Avatar]]: There is not only Greg Dean in the comic, but also the Cartoonist, who is usually portrayed as a disembodied god. When he does appear in-strip, he looks like Greg but with slightly longer hair and different clothing.
* [[Author Filibuster]]: Dean [[Anvilicious|doesn't really understand the concept of subtlety]]. When something annoys him, he will often do a comic that is literally four panels of his [[Author Avatar]] ranting to/lecturing the audience. About as blunted as this will get is that sometimes he'll rant at one of the other characters instead of directly to the viewer.
* [[BFS]]: First an [http://www.reallifecomics.com/archive/000229.html Authentic Scottish Claymore]. Then a full-size replica of [[Final Fantasy VII|Cloud's]] [http://reallifecomics.com/archive/010620.html Buster Sword].
* [[Berserk Button]]: Do NOT ask Greg if he [http://www.reallifecomics.com/archive/030723.html owns the] [[The Legend of Zelda|Master Sword]]. Additionally, Liz threatened to kill Greg when he suggested that [[Walt Disney]] was a [[Fanfic]] author (she did it again when he said the [[Useful Notes/Fonts|Comic Sans font]] is genius, but his explanation [[Fridge Brilliance|makes perfect sense to her]]).
Line 102 ⟶ 103:
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Greg, Dave and Tony. [[Flanderization|Over time]] they've become more vitriolic and less bud-like.
* [[Why Don't Ya Just Shoot Him]]: Subverted.
* [[Women Are Wiser]]: While this could always be said to have been the case between Liz and Greg, the comic has really started to abuse the use of this trope (and all that typically goes with it) in the last few years. Like, "Last season of [[Everybody Loves Raymond]]" abuse it.
* [[Write Who You Know]]
* [[You Have Researched Breathing]]. Parodied in [http://reallifecomics.com/archive/010206.html this strip]. Dean insists that he can pick up ore that Crystal can't mine yet.
