''[http://www.the-whiteboard.com/ The Whiteboard]'' is an unusual paintball-themed [[Furry Comic]] about an Alaskan airsmith polar bear named Doc and his animal friends (all of them [[Funny Animal

Line 17:
** Before that, Doc fitted a regular M2A3 Bradley IFV with a hot tub, complete with girls and probably an entertainment system, as a gift for the Army after the [[Real Life]] capture of Saddam Hussein, in 2003.
* [[Awkward Father-Son Bonding Activity]]: [[Playing with a Trope|Played with]] by Jinx who has convinced his dad to buy him a chain saw. As well as doing... other [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autotwb1425.html things].
* [[Barefoot Cartoon

* [[BFG]]:
** ''Paintball'' guns! Most would be illegal in the sport, especially the railgun and rocket-launcher.
** And then there's [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/sketchbook/gunex.gif this] beauty, from the real 2005 [[April Fools' Day]] strip.
* [[Big Ball of Violence]]: [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb559.html Nobody outshops Doc on] [[wikipedia:Black Friday (shopping)|Black Friday.]]
* [[Big Eater]]: Doc, granted he is a polar bear but once he ate an entire deep-fried ''walrus''.
* [[

Line 61:
* [[Girls with Moustaches]]: [[Only Sane Woman|Sandy]] greets a customer to Doc's shop, and is told by the customer that he wants to deal with a male employee. She ducks behind the counter, and comes back up with [[Paper-Thin Disguise|a fake moustache]] on her face, asking again if she can help him.
* [[The Grim Reaper]]: The standard skeleton in a cloak showed up a couple times in one-shots to pick up a marker, while Doc came face to face with a [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autotwb1088.html somewhat less traditional psychopomp] at the end of the "Doc ODs on caffeine arc".
* [[Halloween Episode]]: There's almost always has a Halloween-related story around October. Mostly it's just parties where [[Cameo

* [[Hot Mom]]: Mrs. Cheetah.
Line 87:
* [[Meat Versus Veggies]]: "Vegies are what food eats". Poor Rainman, who is a rabbit in a cast full of carnivores.
* [[Misapplied Phlebotinum]]: Multiple cases. Doc uses a teleporter to get pizza delivered to his shop, and Roger once built a Tokamak fusion reactor into an Autococker.
* [[More Dakka]]: [[
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Pirta, in-universe at least. The fact that she favors scanty clothing (even in Alaska) and her feline anatomy means she's always walking on her toes (and therefore looks like she's always wearing ''very'' high heels) may imply this for real life readers as well, or at least [[Author Appeal|for the author]]. (Considering Doc is at the very least... ''fascinated''... with her, this is not likely unintentional.)
* [[Must Have Caffeine]]: Goes to ridiculous levels when the refrigerator full of Mountain Dew is crushed, the coffee machine wasn't fixed from its ''last'' misadventure, and Doc resorts to drinking energy drinks. By the [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autotwb1058.html 5-gallon bucket].
Line 102:
** Now that she's gotten a proper arc, Tawny is in this role too as the counterpoint to Snowshoe.
** Jake, in almost every situation, is far more level-headed than his friends, and is often frustrated by their extremes (see Roger dragging him off during the [[PvP]]/The Whiteboard crossover).
* [[Only Six Faces]]: The humans (for the most part) only have ''one'' face. [[Cast of Snowflakes|The furry cast is more varied.]] Doc Nickel isn't above a bit of a [[Take That Me]] on the subject, as seen in [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autotwbaf10.html this] [[April Fools' Day]] strip
* [[Open Mouth, Insert Foot]]: Swampy, [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb591.html here].
* [[Paintball Episode]]: The author knows the game inside-and-out. He makes markers for the game!
Line 121:
* [[Shout-Out]]: Quite a few of them are for fairly old movies and old TV series:
** [[Dirty Harry]] gets a nod [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb578.html here].

** There's also the "Webcomic of the Week" footnotes beneath the comics, which give shout out's to other webcomics that Doc reads.
Line 142:
* [[Take That]]:
** [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb319.html Taking a swing at journalists who claim paintball is a war simulator.]
** [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb417.html The password to Doc's e-mail account] is "[http://www.pbnation.com/ pbn] suxxors".
* [[Taught by Television]]: Sandy, who had no prior experience with paintballing, is shown repairing a marker at Doc's shop after months of reading the shop's e-mail, and says she figures [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb481.html she could probably build a whole nuclear reactor] because of that experience.
* [[This Means War]]: Kasi (the young cheetah girl) says to Doc, after he dumped a bunch of snow on her, "[http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autotwb1184.html You realize, of course...] that this means '''War'''."
* [[Through a Face Full of Fur]]: [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb567.html Sandy]

* [[Tomboy]]: Kasi, apparently one of the reasons she and Jinx get along so well.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food|Trademark Favorite Drink]]: Mountain Dew! Which Doc has his own brewing plant for, and makes several times stronger than the commercial variety.
* [[Up to Eleven]]: Doc and Roger often build very dangerous
* [[Viewers Are Geniuses]]: Some shout-outs are fairly old or obscure (or both) and there is some science which can be difficult to understand, such as Doc's explanation of teleporter physics.
* [[Visual Pun]]: Like many a [[Time Travel]] story, a time travel arc in May 2011 contains a [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autotwb1368.html pair o' Docs].<ref>Play on "parodox", for those who missed the "pun" part.</ref>

** Was getting socked for sneaking a kiss from Sandy worth it? According to Swampy, [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb405.html "Oh God yes"].
** For the sake of an [[April Fools' Day]] gag, apparently sneaking in a look at [[Shower Scene|Pirta in the shower]] [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autoaf2012.html wasn't worth it to Roger and Doc.]
