Line 26:
* [[Biting the Hand Humor]]: They take pot shots at Good Charlotte, who wrote the theme song.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: Gimpy's first love is She-Prime, a girl online. At the end of the episode it revealed {{spoiler|that their dorm rooms are located right next to each other. And neither of them ever found out.}}
** The entire series ended on this note. {{spoiler|Kimmy and Nitz [[Will They or Won't They?|got together]]. Things work out well for the other three, and the only thing that went wrong was that Jessie and Nitz aren't on easy terms now.}}
* [[Brainless Beauty]]: Cal.
* [[Buffy
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Cal - In one episode, Rocko tries to start a college rivalry with State U by beating up Cal after he becomes their mascot... A manatee. However, this doesn't have the desired effect, as nobody really liked the mascot anyway so they just start cheering Cal getting his ass kicked. [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] at the end of the episode, when the characters remark on what they've learned...
{{quote| '''Rocko''': "I shouldn't beat Cal up because he's the mascot... I should beat Cal up because ''he's Cal''."}}
* [[Celibate Hero]]: Nitz {{spoiler|until the last episode.}}
* [[Cliff Hanger]]: On the last day of first year, {{spoiler|Nitz and Kimmy have a drunken makeout session and afterwards, Jessie chews Nitz out for not realizing she's been in love with him the whole year}}, and then... the show ends. Forever.
* [[Cluster F
* [[Did They or Didn't They?]]: In the last episode, it's was never made clear just how far {{spoiler|Nitz got with Kimmie}}.
* [[Did You Think I Can't Feel]]: Jessie to Nitz in the final episode.
* [[Distaff Counterpart]]: Gimpy's rival/love interest is a female hacker known only as She-Prime.
Line 43:
* [[Dramatic Wind]]: The first time we meet Kimmy (bonus points because she is indoors.)
* [[Dumb Blonde]]: Cal.
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: Parker Walsh and Justin Taylor are always addressed as "Nitz" and "Gimpy", respectively. By pretty much everyone.
** Finding out their real names is a blink-and-you'll-miss-it detail that you'd easily forget they even have a different name. Nitz is even written on his financial aid cheques and the birthday cake sent by his mom.
* [[Face Palm]]: Nitz has been waiting for Kimmy to show up at a party. When she calls, Cal answers and tells her she doesn't have to show up because there are plenty of other pretty ladies there. Cue [[Face Palm]], first by Nitz, then by everyone else at the party.
* [[Five
** Nitz ([[The Hero]])
** Jessie ([[The Lancer]] / [[Sixth Ranger]])
Line 98:
* [[Slice of Life]]
* [[Soapbox Sadie]]: Kimmy, especially in the episode "Financial Aid".
* [[Spell My Name With a "The"]]: The Duggler.
* [[Stalker With a Crush]]: Charity towards Rocko, and pretty much any guy.
* [[There Are No Girls On the Internet]]: Gimpy's belief until he encounters She-Prime.
Line 113:
* [[Wacky Fratboy Hijinx]]: Rocko believes this is what fraternities are all about. The other members of his fraternity...not so much.
* [[We Want Our Jerk Back]]: In one episode, the disciplinary RC at Tekerson Tech (Gimpy's school) is removed from the picture after her introduction to Cal. Chaos ensues amongst the students and soon Gimpy decides that they need the RC back.
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Nitz gets this frequently -- usually because he was ignoring his friends to chase Kimmy. Jessie gives him one of these frequently (and literally at least once), and the rest of his gang also mock him for bailing on them.
* [[Where the Hell Is Springfield?]]: The colleges the characters go to give no indication for the location, such as the delightfully impossible "State University"
** They seem to have New York State I.D.
* [[Wrong Genre Savvy]]: Rocko thinks he's about to enter a [[Wacky Fratboy Hijinx|wacky fratboy movie]] akin to ''[[Animal House]]''. Turns out that's not how his frat actually works.
