* [[All Women Are Lustful]] / [[All Women Are Prudes]]: Discussed, the PUA artists claim that the former is the truth, but women have a last minute anti-slut defense mechanism that puts the latter as a facade, and the key is to appease the former.
* [[Assimilation Plot]]: [[Zig Zagged]], possibly Deconstructed. The assimilation is unconscious and inadvertent. Everyone wants to mirror the top pickup artists, soon becoming what Neil called, "social robots."
Line 41 ⟶ 40:
* [[Shout-Out]]: Many, but the most obvious one is Tyler Durden, who blatantly took his name from... well, [[Fight Club|Tyler Durden]]. In fact it's a coincidence that the latter part of the book becomes close to the very plot of Fight Club, what with Project Hollywood and all.
* [[Spanner in the Works]]: While Project Hollywood was already decaying anyway, Katya turns it into chaos.
* [[Took a Level
* [[Turned Against Their Masters]]: Papa
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: The book begins with Mystery having a psychotic breakdown and threatening to kill himself when his girlfriend leaves, before being checked into a mental health clinic.
