* [[Animation Age Ghetto]]: There is [http://www.actsofgord.com/Chronicles/chapter12.php one section] where this happens. Two children try to rent an anime named ''[[Ninja Scroll (Anime)|Ninja Scroll]]'' that, due to its nature, is not a "family film". So thus he has to allow the kids' dad to come in to rent the film and he complains about having to come in "just so they could rent a cartoon". [[Society Is to Blame|Then he comes back and yells at Gord for renting pornography to his kids.]]
* [[Badass]]: The Gord, anytime he chases down thieves and other jackasses.

Gord replies, "Video games don't make people more violent, and I'll kill anyone who disagrees." After a dramatic pause, the reporter replies that he doesn't think his editor can print that.
