  • According to archived album art, "Rusted Over Wet Dreams" was originally called "Scorpios With Black Names Are Bad News". The reason for this name change is unknown.
  • Track 6, titled "Travis Bickle" is a reference to the Martin Scorsese film Taxi Driver.
  • Tracks 3 and 8 are references to the comedy program, Chappelle's Show, being a reference to the title of a recurring sketch, and a quote by a character in a sketch respectively. The title of Track 5, "You Got a Henna Tattoo that Said Forever" is a reference to a quote from Zach Galifianakis' 2001 episode of "Comedy Central Presents".[4]
