    • Trivia
      Dallas says "whoop whoop!" as he leaves the apartment, indicating that he's a juggalo, a fan of the Michigan rap duo Insane Clown Posse. It's a reference to their song "Superballs". Dallas also enters carrying two bottles of Faygo, a soft drink favored among both ICP and Juggalos, although the film was produced and is set in Michigan, where Faygo is manufactured and is most popular, due to its low cost and variety of flavors.
    • Quotes

      Dallas: Just fucking show me the money, dude. You fucking seen Jerry Maguire? you know what I'm talking about?

      Abbie: No.

      Dallas: Show me the money. Fucking Thomas Cruise style. You should see it though, because it got Jerry Cantrell from fucking Alice in Chains in it. He plays like a fucking Kinko's employee.

    Kind of King of Kong meets Gummo.
    Cam gives his slacker brother Abbie one last challenge before he's kicked out. To beat Billy Mitchell at Pac Man. If he clears level 256 then he wins $100,000. Cam adds that he can not under any circumstance leave the couch. And if that's not bad enough, the Y2K apocalypse is on the horizon. As weeks go by he begins to deteriorate. Surreal, weird, and gross at times.
