I think the best joke is the whole Sitwell/Standpoor misunderstanding. Michael thinking "Standpoor" is Stan Sitwell, because its the opposite of Sitwell. But its really Lucille2 because she has vertigo and "stands poorly"

I love love LOVE this one:

GOB.: Check is out. My lips don’t move. They call me up to the stand, say something like, “Who’s this little friend?” And he’ll say...
Judge Reinhold: My name is Judge.
GOB: Who’s name is Judge?
Judge Reinhold: My name is...
Michael: Okay.
GOB: That’s a silly name.
Michael: That’s enough.
Judge Reinhold: Judge. My name...
GOB: Yes, I am judging your name. It am silly.
Judge Reinhold: Is...
Michael: Please stop.
GOB: Oh, now you’re correcting my grammar?
Michael: GOB, not going to put Franklin on the stand, and your lips are moving just little bit.
Judge Reinhold: Judge.
GOB: He’s right, his name is Judge now.

I love that no matter what, even when he doesn't have to speak at all, GOB's lips still move when he's doing the ventriloquism.

I love that he's smart enough to use a tape recorder, but stupid enough to not just record his own voice.

haha, that reminded me of how they say "candy beans" instead of jelly beans. its such a stupid thing to laugh at but they bring them up often.

Michael was filled with self-loathing. Had he been Jack the Ripper, he would have soothed himself in a most unsavory way. But instead, he just sat in his car and ate a whole thing of candy beans.

Oscar: I need money.
Michael: I know.

Not the best joke but worth a half chuckle.

So I want you guys to be on Use Your Illusion. Only now it’s “allusion” with an “A.” So if you guys want to put an allusion in there somewhere, like Poe or something... don’t do Poe, ’cause I’m doing Poe.

What about Chaucer?

Just not Poe.

Will a smart person explain this joke for me? I know its from the show but I never got it.

# ¿ May 18, 2010 18:06

Cage: Jul 17, 2003

I don't know who or what Poe or Chaucer are/is.

quote:

An allusion is a reference to, or representation of, a place, event, literary work, myth, or work of art, either directly or by implication. M.H. Abrams defined allusion as "a brief reference, explicit or indirect, to a person, place or event, or to another literary work or passage".[1] It is left to the reader or hearer to make the connection (Fowler); an overt allusion is a misnomer for what is simply a reference.

# ¿ May 18, 2010 18:23

Cage: Jul 17, 2003

Okay, I know of Edgar Allan Poe but not enough to know he was just referred to as "Poe". The other guy Ive never heard about though. Sorry.

Then Michael asks him if he burned down the warehouse and he says 'Almost definitely.'

"Oh, most definitely."

# ¿ May 19, 2010 22:33

Almost definitely makes no sense though. He either knows he burnt it down or he doesn't.

contrantidipsomania posted:

I always thought he said "Almost definitely." because he didn't want to straight out admit it, but was somewhat proud of his work.

But the joke is that he DID admit it so nonchalantly.

Yeah, thats what makes the "Michael decided to do a little detective work of his own." such a good setup.

Constantly changing Marta is probably the best meta-joke.

Constantly? Theres was only one switch, the one already posted is Leonor Varela and the 2nd one is Patricia Velasquez. The "Marta" thats in a flashback of Michaels dates isn't the same one as those two.

How is that meta, anyway?

In the flashback clip Michael brings Marta over to his mothers, but after Gob gave Michael the go ahead they were really only together for about 2 hours before she breaks up with him. There really wasn't enough time for that to happen. Different Marta.
