Line 17:
* [[The Brute]]: Sack Lodge practically embodies this trope.
* [[The Cameo]]: {{spoiler|[[Crowning Moment of Funny|Will Ferrell as Chazz]].}}
** Also a [[One -Scene Wonder]].
** Also John McCain [[As Himself]].
** Same with James Carville.
Line 29:
* [[The Fun in Funeral]]: The protagonists' mentor, Chazz, (played by {{spoiler|Will Ferrell}}) eventually replaced "getting women at weddings" with "getting women at funerals". And he brings John along for a demonstration. It is this practice that qualifies as his [[Moral Event Horizon]].
* [[Girl On Girl Is Hot]]: Jeremy's girlfriend, Gloria, asks if he wants to watch her do it with a Brazilian girl. He proposes. To be fair, he was planning on proposing anyway, but that certainly helped seal the deal.
* [[Hey ItsIt's That Guy]]: [[The Blues Brothers|The lead Illinois Nazi]] is now a priest.
* [[Horrible Judge of Character]]: Claire and her family when it comes to Sack.
* [[Hot Mom]]: Kathleen Cleary. Holy moley...
* [[Huge Guy, Tiny Girl]]: Jeremy and Gloria, as with any actress who gets paired with Vince Vaughn as a romantic lead.
* [[Jerkass]]/[[Jerk Jock]]: Sack, big time.
* [[Laxative Prank]]: John does this to Sack.
Line 52:
* [[Testing the Love Interest]]: Claire does this later in the film.
* [[Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist]]: Jack and Jeremy, oddly enough. A lot of the humor in this movie would be very uncomfortable, except for one thing: the main characters are philandering serial liars until they get a little [[Character Development]] forced on them, so who cares what happens to them?
* [[What Does She See in Him?]]: Claire and Zachary. Sure, he's played by the muscular Bradley Cooper, but he is one of the most over the top assholes in cinematic history.
** As Roger Ebert put it in his review, "in a comedy the villain is supposed to be [[Laughably Evil|funny]], and not [[Complete Monster|a hateful, sadistic, egotistical monster]]".
** It's implied to be just a relationship of convenience more than anything else.
