* {{Mondegreen}}: A minor example. "French Exit" contains the line "[...] you're gonna make this insincere" but, to many, the way it's sung makes it sound like "[...] you're gonna make this ''sin'' sincere".

* PrecisionFStrike: In "Bear"
--> But we'll make only quick decisions and you'll just keep me in the waiting room,
--> When all the while I'll know we're fucked and not getting un-fucked soon
** Also in "Two"
--> Daddy was a asshole, he fucked you up

* PrecisionFStrike: In "Bear"
--> But we'll make only quick decisions
At least one track on any of their full-band albums sees Silberman cursing, and you'll just keep me in the waiting room,
--> When all the while I'll know we're fucked and not getting un-fucked soon
** Also in "Two"
--> Daddy was a asshole, he fucked you up
it tends to stick out.

* ConceptAlbum: ''Hospice'' chronicles an abusive relationship, sung through the analogy of a relationship between a hospice worker and a dying patient. ''In the Attic of the Universe'' and ''Burst Apart'' also have shades of this, with their themes of helpless and dog metaphors respectively.

* GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion: Averted in "Bear". "The bear" inside the dying wife's "stomach" heavily implies that she's pregnant. The singer's comments imply they decided an abortion would be best because of their unhealthy relationship.
