▲*[[Cool Teacher|Cool Teacher:]] Jonesy. After hanging up on Henry, he has a student named David come into his office. David was caught cheating on an exam and put a huge risk to his scholarship. Jonesy, who who was using his powers, deduced that David came from a poor neighborhood and as a result, tears the exam up and tells David to do a Make-Up Essay. When Jonesy is run over, David sees his body, lamenting the possibility that Jonesy might die.
* [[Evil-Detecting
* [[Face Full of Alien Wingwong]]
▲* [[Face Full of Alien Wingwong]] - Mr. Gray's head explodes, infecting Jonesy with hundreds of alien spores and transferring Mr. Gray's consciousness into him.
▲* [[Fartillery]] - One of the signs that you're infected with one of the shit-weasels.
▲* [[General Ripper]] - Kurtz.
▲* [[Inspirationally Disadvantaged]] - Duddits is of the Type C variety.
* [[Nice Guy]]: Henry, Beaver, Pete and Jonesy when they were kids. They were more than willing to stop bullies from brutally picking on Duddits, despite not knowing him personally. Special mention goes to Kid Beaver who manages to calm a still scared Duddits down by singing Blue Bayou. Once grown up Henry and Pete [[Took a Level in Jerkass|downgrade]] to [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|Jerks with a Hearts of Gold]].
** Adult Jonesy still retains his nice guy attitude as a school teacher. He gives one of his students who he caught cheating on a test; a second chance to make it up to him, when he used his telepathy to find out the student, who was on scholarship has a poor upbringing. Said student was one of the witnesses to the horrific car accident that nearly killed Jonesy and is heartbroken when he thinks his teacher might die.
** Adult Beaver while foul-mouthed and a womanized, is also a nice guy in his own way. If what Jonesy said to Mr. Gray was accurate, he'd never hurt a soul. {{Spoiler|Which made his death all the more tragic.}}
* [[Nobody Poops]]
* [[Oh Crap
* [[Omnicidal Maniac]]
* [[One-Winged Angel]]
* [[Puppeteer Parasite]]
* [[Race Lift]]

▲* [[Trademark Favorite Food]] - Mr. Gray loves BACON.
* [[Took a Level in Jerkass]]: Henry and Pete become more cynical as adults than they were as kids.
** Henry in a poor attempt to help one of his patients flat out tells him, to stop eating himself to death for guilt over his mother. Saying it alone is insensitive as it is, but the fact that he got the info using the gift of telepathy Duddits gave him. Something the patient, sorta catches onto. The result causes said patient to [[Self Fulfilling Prophecies|eat himself to death.]] To be fair on Henry's part, he was trying to help him with his power and even contemplated killing himself out of guilt on top of the guilt for not seeing Duddits again. This makes him come across as [[Innocently Insensitive]]. However he did nothing to stop the patient.
** Pete as a child, was a [[Nice Guy]]. Upon meeting Duddits for the first time and seeing the danger he was in through bullies, Pete was willing to run on Henry's word, implying that he was fast enough to out run them and willing to do so to get to the nearest adult. When they go looking for Josie, a missing girl, Duddits entrusts Pete with the ability known as "The Line." in which he becomes a human dowsing rod finding what he wants to find. Nowadays he became a drunken sleazy Car Salesman, who uses the line to pick up women. {{Spoiler| He redeems himself in the end, by killing a shit-weasel and telling Mr. Gray to bite his bag refusing to reveal more about Duddits.}}
* [[Unexplained Accent]]
* [[Vagina Dentata]]
* [[Vorpal Pillow]]
* [[Water Source Tampering]]
