Scott Pilgrim contains numerous Running Gags. A few token examples are listed below.
- (Knives Chau: 17 years old.)
- Should we be letting her drink beer?
- Slightly less prevalent: "Jason? You mean the guy with a car?"
- Moral high ground.
- Nah, Scott's just a pussy.
- In Volume 6: CASUAL SEX
- August 27th is not Scott's birthday.
- Scott can't remember who anyone is that he doesn't already know. Including his own brother, Lawrence West.
- Taken to the extreme in Volume 5 when he attacks anyone who wears glasses, assuming that person is Gideon, simply because Gideon has glasses. Again, including his brother.
- "I don't have to answer that."
- The memory cams in Volume 6.
- Remarks on Scott's Idiot status by various characters (it seems everyone save for Scott is aware of it).
- "I'm telling the truth!""Actually no, I lied."note
