* HitlerAteSugar: Parodied by the Bots after the judge in the short makes an ominous implication intended for Joe's guardian.
-->'''Judge:''' That description fitted someone else I know...if you know who I mean.
-->'''Crow:''' "Hitler? Uh, no, [[DrivingStick he drove a stick.]]"



* RousingSpeech: Crow delivers one to the audience (and himself) after being inspired by the short. Subverted at the end, though.

** It also became one out of universe, to the point where the show itself spoofed it in ''{{Last Of The Wild Horses}}''. It doesn't help that Joel blows his lines several times; apparently this was the best take they got and everyone just wanted to move on.
