* HilarityEnsues: Did anyone notice that Taylor Swift is 26 years old (as of this episode's original airing in November 2016) and would be jailed if she were seen kissing a 15-year-old Chris??!!?? Not to mention the ensuing scandal would ruin her career in short order. Also, Brian, Chris and Stewie would be arrested, or short of that escorted by security off her property, for showing up at Swift's house unannounced; instead, she simply invites them in as though she were expecting them and treats them like old friends.

* {{Jerkass}}: How Taylor is characterized in this song: A complete bitch and spoiled diva, and someone who exploits other people for profit, superstardom, ego and other personal gain, and no amount of backpedaling can conceal her true motives.
