References

• The second line of the haiku is a play on the title of the song "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground", by The White Stripes.
• The ability to restore MP by sprinkling you with maple syrup may be a reference to the game Paper Mario, in which Mario can heal MP by drinking maple syrup.
• The message given with the wax lips equipped quotes the television characters Bob and Doug McKenzie from Second City Television, played by actors Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas.
