=== This webcomic contains examples of: ===
* [[555]]: Poor Jim is given such a number [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws-1252/ by a girl].
* [[A Date
* [[Accidental Unfortunate Gesture]]: Hazel and Jamie imagine how Chris the Pirate attempting ASL could [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws-883/ go horribly wrong].
* [[Actually, I Am Him]]: Hazel sends Erin to spy on Jamie and her "new boyfriend Aaron"...when Jamie's actually starting a lesbian relationship with Erin.
Line 20:
* [[All Men Are Perverts]]: Jamie gets pretty much everything she wants from strange men, thanks to her endowments. When she covers them up, she is shocked that drinks suddenly [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws290/ cost more]. Played creepily straight by every male customer of the porn store.
** Hazel assumes what Zach wants when he [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws236/ offers to drive her home].
* [[All Women Are Lustful]]: Let's just say that when all the [[A Date
** [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws-1204/ It's started]
*** [[Word of God|"This is about as close to post-apocalyptic storyline as you're ever gonna get from me."]]
Line 33:
* [[Beta Couple]]: Jameson and Maureen become the stable background couple after they get married.
* [[Bigger Is Better in Bed]]: Hazel has "length" and "girth" requirements for a man.
* [[Bill, Bill, Junk, Bill]]: With [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws436/ email].
* [[Black Comedy Rape]]: See [[Double Standard Rape (Female
* [[Bottle Fairy]]: Hazel.
* [[Brains and Bondage]]: Clarice, one of the more intelligent members of the cast, is a dominatrix. But she dreams of being a librarian.
Line 54:
* [[Cool Old Lady]]: Hazel's neighbor who has upstaged and hijacked her parties more than once.
* [[Crash Into Hello]]: [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws-1082/ How Thea and Mimi meet].
* [[Crossover]]: [[Something Positive|Davan]] attended Maureen and Jamison's wedding, and recently Sprinkles gave birth to Choo-Choo Bear's babies, one of whom went to [[Shortpacked
** A breakdown of the cats and their crossovers is included in [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/sp-thanksgiving-guest-strip/ this strip].
* [[The Cutie]]: Jamie. Mimi makes a good case for herself too.
Line 64:
* [[Disability Superpower]]: Do not question Soo Lin's [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws795/ Daredevilness].
* [[The Disease That Shall Not Be Named]]: Played with. Thea catches a STD from fooling around with Angel. {{spoiler|[[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?|It's just Restless Leg Syndrome.]]}}
* [[Distracted
* [[Dope Slap]]: Jameson [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws503/ gets one].
* [[Double Standard]]: Even though Candy tried to rape Chris, Jamie seems horrified at the idea of him [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws270/ macing a girl].
* [[Double Standard Rape (Female
** Absolutely ''not'', despite what [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws268/ Jameson initially thinks]. Candy tries to rape Chris, and gets knocked off her [[Straw Feminist]] pedestal quickly by a cast that agrees that she is absolutely wrong. Which still hardly excuses an attempted rape being played for laughs. Even though after a good week's worth of jokes, the strip finally gets around to saying 'seriously kids, rape is wrong no matter what the victim's gender is' it's still jarring.
** A sequence where a female barber threatens to seduce Jameson, kidnaps him, and forcibly shaves him (smoking a cigarette afterward) is played entirely for laughs, probably because all she did was shave his hair, so it being played for laughs is excusable.
Line 144:
* [[Scotireland]]: McPedro's accent is supposed to be Irish, but he speaks stereotypical Scottish.[[Fridge Brilliance|This may be due to his existence as a drunken delusion of Hazel's]], although he later points it out [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws331/ and refers to his accent as "Scirish."]
* [[Selective Obliviousness]]: Hazel can't seem to grasp that lesbian sex isn't limited to strap-ons.
* [[Shared Universe]]: With ''[[Something Positive]]'' (and by extension, ''[[Punch an Pie]]''). And by extension of those, with ''[[
** Also, Robyn from [[All New Issues]] is apparently Hazel's cousin.
* [[Ship Sinking]]: Hammered home when Angel not only screws someone else behind Thea's back, but tells Thea they were never in a real relationship to begin with. ''Ouch.''
Line 152:
* [[Silent Snarker]]: [[The Speechless|Melody.]]
* [[The Speechless]]: Maureen's sister, who is deaf. She can still sign and text people, though.
* [[Stalker
* [[STD Immunity]]: Averted with Angel and Thea, where the latter picks up a scorching case of {{spoiler|restless leg syndrome.}}

* [[Unnecessary Makeover]]: [[In
* [[Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist]]: Hazel's at least close, especially early on. She often crosses the line from [[Deadpan Snarker]] into just plain being a jerk, and she's also pretty selfish, and this usually appears for the sake of a punchline. However, on other occasions she shows that she's a [[Jerk
* [[Unusual Euphemism]]: Angel and Thea playing board games in the back room.
** "Giant Sea Cucumber!"
