Gerry, slang for German. Don't know that it's from anything special, but then there's a LOT of WW2 flicks.

How about when one of them says something like "We must confound Jerry day and night!" in a British accent? I get that it's a WWII thing, but is that from something? It's always in the same tone of voice, so I don't know. Definitely sounds like something Chruchill said. Dunno for sure though.

Okay, what about in Cave Dwellers, when that one guy comes on the screen and they say something like "My, My! I'm the best lookin' man in the middle ages!"

I think it's a reference to the stereotypical black pimp type dressed all funky portrayed in the 70's - Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch comes immediately to mind.
I have an old one I never understood. Joel did it in several eps, and I just finished watching Robot vs. the Aztec Mummy and it's there too. He sings it - "I'm Milton, your brand new son!" I have no idea what that means, but I feel like I half remember it from somewhere...

"Don't worry, I/we won't hurt you!" What's that come from?

It's a lyric from Prince's song "1999".

Oh, okay! I forgot all about that. Most likely on purpose.
