*Jordan asks what Strong Bad would be like if he "weren't that buff, handsome, and stylish man in a wrestling mask that he is," but Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad still has the wrestling mask. This is probably because with Strong Bad, it is given that he has the wrestling mask, it might even be his actual face (as evidenced in [[some kinda robot]]). It is as if someone asked a normal guy "What if you weren't that buff, handsome, and stylish man that you are."
*When Senor Cardgage is eating the melted candy bar, the candy bar doesn't get any shorter.

*Senor Cardgage's glasses only have one temple. Although the other might as well not be there, seeing as, like other characters, Senor Cardgage doesn't have any ears. This is yet another reference to [[lack of visible body parts]].
 
-
*Strong Sad says that Cardgage used to live down the street when the Brothers Strong were little, even though 1) there are no roads in [[Free Country, USA]] (save for the one seen in [[Theme Song Video]]), and 2) later toons establish that Cardgage still does live near the Strongs.
