Line 23:
* [[Brick Joke]]: Scattered everywhere through their albums.
** In what must be one of the most elongated examples ever, during ''The Further Adventures of Nick Danger, Third Eye'', Nick receives a call from a guy who thinks he's called a pizza place, and says "I want a pizza to go, and no anchovies," to which Nick replies, "Sorry, you've got the wrong number. I spell my name 'Danger'," and hangs up, causing the caller to say, "Wha?" On their next album, ''Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers'', the main character, George Tirebiter, calls to order a pizza, saying, "I want a pizza to go, and no anchovies," and then, after a brief pause, he says, "Wha?"
* [[Bullet Dancing]]: In the skit "Temporarily Humboldt County", someone fires a gun (presumably) at a native American Indian's feet.
{{quote|"Let's see the war dance, yeah *bang* dance dance."}}
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: All of them.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: Out there, somewhere, there is a Firesign Theatre fan who is making a life's labour of love out of laying out the Theatre's huge and intricate web of in-jokes and (self-, meta-, self-meta-)references.
