Line 28:
* [[Child Eater]]: ''[[Marmaduke]]''
* [[Dissimile]]: His quip about ''The Family Circus'' [http://joshreads.com/?p=10713 here]:
{{quote| I'm overjoyed to see Billy's comically overwrought expression of crushing despair as his mother drapes that suit jacket over his shoulders. It's as if he’s won the Masters, only instead of a green jacket he's getting a blue jacket, and instead of winning the Masters he's going to be executed wearing a blue jacket.}}
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]: Parodied. Josh often explains the punchline of a comic in the most outlandish and unfiltered manner possible.
* [[Fan Fiction]]: There was a post about a joke in ''Hi and Lois'' when one of the kids misunderstands a metaphor, and assumes that Beethoven was buried alive. [http://docs.google.com/View?id=dggnx8gx_201fwkfzqdh This ensued].
Line 53:
* [[Perverse Sexual Lust]]: Josh has it for Margo McGee.
* [[Precision F-Strike]]
{{quote| '''[[Family Circus|Billy:]]''' Now that we're in bed, they won't have to watch their language on TV.<br />
'''Josh:''' You sure got that right, you little fucker. }}
* [[Promoted Fanboy]]: Josh's constant riffing on newspaper ''[[Spider-Man]]'' got him invited to appear in the Rifftrax commentary track for ''[[Spider-Man]] 2''.
