Line 78:
* [[Author Appeal]]: In the DVD commentary for the Doc Hammer-written "ORB", Jackson Publick remarks that the script was "a list of stuff Doc likes." Most notably, allusions to late 19th/early 20th century American painters. (Doc Hammer is [http://doc-hammer.deviantart.com/ also a painter].)
* [[Author Avatar]]: In the DVD commentaries, Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick have said whenever they're stuck on the writing, they create a pair of characters loosely based on (and frequently voiced by) themselves. #21 and #24 are the Ur-example; others include Watch and Ward, the Moppets and the Lepidopterists.
** Of course it has been suggested that [https://web.archive.org/web/20140405053209/http://i.cdn.turner.com/asfix/repository/8a25c3920eaf5fa6010eafac52fc00ef/thumbnail_2152.jpg Pete White] looks suspiciously like [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f3/Doc_Hammer_by_Gage_Skidmore.jpg Doc Hammer], and they share a love of 80's electronica.
* [[Author Filibuster]]: Possibly a subversion, but: the season four episode had two (Pro-Choice and Anti-Vegan/Vegetarianism) for the price of one, when now [[Imaginary Friend]] 24 delivers a tangent about the "truth" about souls: everything ''but'' unborn babies have souls (babies don't get their souls until their first year of life) and that God doesn't care if you eat animals/plants that have souls.
* [[Awesome but Impractical]]: A common source of humor in regards to many of the [[Zeerust]] devices.
