*** Gyro. Has. ''[http://disneycomics.free.fr/Ducks/Rosa/show.php?num=6&loc=H89174&s=date HUMAN FEET.]''...
* [[Have a Gay Old Time]]: In the first ''[[The Three Caballeros]]'' comic Rosa did, he changed the lyrics of the eponymous song to remove the verse "the three gay caballeros". In the second one, the line is intact. You could almost swear there's a guy giving them a knowing gaze as they sing it that time...
* [[Heads or Tails]]: In "Flip Decision", Donald is conned by a charlatan into believing in [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:Flipism |Flipism]]: the idea that all of life's choices can be made on the flip of a coin. [[Hilarity Ensues]], of course, though the coin does show uncanny predictive power.
* [[Historical In-Joke]]
* [[Homage]]: The two stories with [[The Three Caballeros]]. Complete with them [http://disneycomics.free.fr/Ducks/Rosa/show.php?num=13&loc=D2000-002 performing the theme song].
Line 80:
* [[Secret Ingredient]]: In one comic, Donald insists on putting ketchup on all of Daisy's cooking, much to her annoyance, because it just doesn't taste as good as Grandma Duck's food. When Daisy checks with Grandma, it turns out the old lady's secret ingredient is...ketchup, which she puts in everything.
* [[Self-Made Man]]: Scrooge. The point being that the "making" was more important to him than "getting made" in the first place.
* [[Shoe Shine, Mister?]]: Scrooge famously won his Number One Dime shining shoes.
* [[Shout -Out]]: Rosa never wrote any Mickey Mouse stories, but that doesn't keep him from littering various Hidden Mickeys within his stories.
** The D.U.C.K. dedication also counts. <!-- More detail, please. -->
** ''[[Monty Python and The Holy Grail]]'' gets quoted at least twice.
** Arpin Lusene is an obvious nod to ''[[Arsène Lupin]]''.
** Another one from Arpin : at one point, he refers to Scrooge as "Ze chipskate! Ze '''picsou'''!'. Now, 'picsou' ''is not'' a french word for 'cheapskate'. It is, however, Scrooge's name in the french version of his stories (Balthazar [[Punny Name|Picsou]]).
** The afterwords for each chapter in [[The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck]] actually list all the [[Shout -Out|Shout Outs]]. ''[[Citizen Kane (Film)|Citizen Kane]]'' was a popular one.
* [[Status Quo Is God]]: As well as [[Negative Continuity]], due to the numerous different writers who have written these stories with little to no regard for each other..
** Though the series in many ways is also great for aversions. As Scrooge is already the richest duck in the world, any treasures he finds will usually be a drop in the bucket. And so success or failure isn't as guaranteed as with other characters.
