Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Pimp Lusius.Entitled to Have You: Chuck declares that he has the right to love whoever he pleases and treats Rufus's wife like she's the interloper in their affair.Sylvester: I said Brother spare me the details. Lampshaded early on when a pastor says "Well, since we're all comin' out the closet, I'm not about to be the only one who's broken-hearted." He then comes out of the closet. Does This Remind You of Anything?: Lets just say the title can be pretty misleading."You looked like you'd seen a ghost come from the dead"."He walks up to the closet, He comes up to the closet"."And then he continues to rough up the midget as if the midget was under attack.".Contrived Coincidence: Inexplicably, when James is about to kill Big Man, Bridgette's first instinct is call her husband's lover for help and Sylvester and Twan decide to go stop the incident personally.Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: People in blue or purple are bad news.These reoccurrences are presumably to avoid an Artifact Title situation. It happens several more times: once with a closet again (Randolph), once with a kitchen cabinet (Big Man), and once with the Narrator narrating from a closet for no apparent reason. Closet Shuffle: In the first episode, hence the title.Even the characters who at first seem only to exist for a single scene turn out to be sleeping with or have a history with the main characters. Chekhov's Gunman: There are no minor characters.Chandler's Law: The number of time Sylvester just pulls his beretta to escalate a situation is quite high.Though, he gets the last laugh he is one of the few characters who don't have AIDS by the end of the story. He even gets properly introduced by being shot by Slyvester/James. Butt-Monkey: Twan gets no respect throughout the story, being portrayed as a hot-headed idiot.
Bring My Brown Pants: Big Man shits himself when James pulls his gun on him.Twan when he saves Sylvester and him from Beeno's goons. Big Damn Heroes: Twan and Sylvester when they burst into James's (the policeman's) house to save Bridget.Bigger Is Better in Bed: Big Man, hence the name.He nearly blows off Twan's and Sylvester's heads and that's before Beeno sends him to kill them! He's supposedly trying to turn his life around but "kill everyone" seems to be his default solution to most problems. Author Avatar: Sylvester is this for Kelly himself, being partly named after him (Sylvester is his middle name) and being the only character that he doesn't wear any kind of makeup or costume for.In fact, in Chapters 3-4, Sylvester basically breaks every rule in the gun safety handbook. Kelly scratches his head with the barrel of his gun, in a manner very similar to characters in Plan 9 from Outer Space. Artistic License Gun Safety: At one point, R.
