** Many StarWars examples as said before; some are a less obvious bonus ("I don't care if your locker is on the [[StarWars ice planet Hoth,]] you're still late!")late!") ''Guide to Dodgeball'' is the most blatant example. Ned and Moze are both Luke, Cookie is Anakin/Vader, and Loomer is Palpatine. Also, there's a ball called the Force, with Dirga telling Moze to use the Force to defeat Loomer and his posse.

** Cookie's glasses as well. Originally, Cookie was supposed to be a cyborg, with quite a few early episodes even referring to him as such. However, as time went on, this aspect of his character was dropped, and his glasses (with what appears to be a full working operating system installed in them) were the only remnant of this.

At least OnceAnEpisode when the moment for giving tips comes: the theme music starts, Ned turns to the audience, and begins, "If you're [someone] who's confused about [something], check out these tips." Despite customary GenreBlindness and Moze being the voice of reason, Ned seems permanently aware of the FourthWall, with other characters occasionally acknowledging it, to some surprise. In solving the current dilemma and Tip Subject, Ned tries outlandish theories, Moze goes for the more practical solution and Cookie usually applies a scientific rigor.
