- Crosses the Line Twice: In "One More Minute", the things that the narrator would supposedly rather do instead of spend time with his ex-girlfriend.
- Harsher in Hindsight: Al gets his heart ripped out to comedic effect in both the song and the music video for "One More Minute." It's far less comic when his character in Batman vs. Robin gets the same treatment.
- Self-Parody: "Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch". One could argue that this song was supposed to be a parody of how the public saw "Weird Al" Yankovic, rather than a parody of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun", seen as it's deliberately lazy in changing the words to be about food, and the public saw parodies like Eat It and My Bologna as similarly lazy ripoffs. It makes sense that he'd do the bare minimum, seen as the record label forced him to parody Cyndi Lauper.
- So Bad, It's Good: "Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch", only because of how deliberately bad he made it.
- Squick: Some of Al's Would Rather Suffer descriptions in "One More Minute" — even the ones that aren't extremely violent — are quite repulsive. The worst offender:I'd rather get my blood sucked out by leeches
Shove an icepick under a toenail or two
I'd rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand Central Station with my tongue
Than spend one more minute with you - Unintentional Period Piece: "Dare to Be Stupid" references commercials for Charmin toilet paper and the National Coffee Association, commercials that have not aired on TV since the 1980s.
