Running Gag / Kim Possible

• Ron Stoppable's disappearing pants. They regularly get slashed open or pulled off of him, exposing his rather colorful collection of boxer shorts. There's even been some Lampshade Hanging on it; in "Showdown at the 'Crooked D'", when confronted with the fact, he claims it's only happened "six or eight times;" in "Exchange", when it happens once again, Ron bemoans his misfortune with a "Oh, man! Even in Japan!"
• This itself is almost becoming a running gag; in the episode "Ill Suited", his reaction is "Oh, man! Even as a senior!" This however was lampshaded and solved in Season 4 as Wade made an unbreakable titanium phlebotinum belt for Kim to give Ron.
• In "Clean Slate", where Kim gave Ron the belt, he later used the belt to close a steam pipe, thus making his pants fall down again.
• Which culminated in a montage of previous falling-pants incidents, as Kim (who was suffering from Easy Amnesia at the time) finally remembered her relationship with Ron, and declared "I love you" to him for the first time. Crowning Moment Of Heartwarming? Yeah.
• Without exception, at least once each recurring villain from the Rogues Gallery in Kim Possible has forgotten Ron's name. Senior Sr. and Monkey Fist remember his name a bit better than everyone else, however Dementor and Dr. Drakken have NEVER remembered his name.
• Ron himself commented on this in one episode, speaking to Monkey Fist: "You know, you're the only bad guy who ever remembers my name. I respect that."
• Whatever the plot-relevant class, sport, or administrative duty is, Mr. Barkin will be covering it today as the regular teacher is unavailable.
• In the first season, upon seeing an enormous obstacle/opponent that they would have to face, Ron would often exclaim:
  Ron: "That would be so cool if it wasn't gonna hurt us!"
• Ron being 'micro chipped' by Wade.
• The number of Almost Kisses between Kim and Ron became a gag in Season 4. However, if you're a K/R fan, you might see it as a Moment Killer.
• Motor Ed's verbal tic. Seriously.
• After "Rappin' Drakken", that plan's horrific failure becomes a running gag that spans Season 4 — mostly via Shego's snark or someone only remembering him because of the shampoo. It was even what lead to Drakken being freed from prison by Warmonga who caught the transmission and thought he was the Great Blue. This culminates in him being able to easily put together a Mass Hypnosis plan because "there was plenty of the mind control shampoo left over."
• Several episodes, particularly the ones with two shorts that were more humor related instead of one full story, have the running gag of Kim getting stuck with the worst luck or having a much harder time dealing with something while Ron skates through the sitch with good luck and a total lack of interest. This includes Ron being bumped up to first class on a commercial flight — twice — while Kim is stuck in coach (Ron has the decency to try to pretend it wasn't awesome, though he fails), Kim being totally blindsided and humiliated by having the tell the truth all the time while it makes Ron instantly popular, Ron bonding with an overgrown roach monster while Kim is so grossed out she constantly freaks out (after telling Ron not to worry about bugs, no less), both episodes that focus on Felix and the first half of "Sick Day".
