I actually would like an exploration of what causes a man to turn to neutrality. Lust for gold?

axleblaze posted:That's the thing though, there really weren't that many Hermes smokes weed jokes" before the new season. In fact I can't remember any but I'm open to the fact that I might be forgetting some. On the other hand almost every episode in this half season has had one and none of them have really been that funny. The Jamaican Olympic bobsled team could probably tell you some, but they all got detained at the airport.

What a silly episode. I liked the Monty Python animation reference. Although Terry Gilliam is American.

I'm terrible at math, so a bunch of Futurama jokes fly by me, but Presidents? Oh man. I was dying throughout the whole episode. It's probably one of my all-time favorites.

I like to sneak Futurama quotes into normal conversation. For example I was helping my dad make his new kitchen's work top, and he told me to get some clamps. I got them and ask him if I should give him the clamps  I am a giant child.

I always thought it was just used in the middle, but wikipedia says also sometimes at the beginning? But anywhere I've ever seen it, it's only when used in the middle of the word. So I think this episode was wrong. I've been to Williamsburg, Philadelphia and Boston and all those places, and you only see ſ in the middle of a word. Like Jeſus Chriſt. Which my sister I had fun with when we went to churches asking who Jefus Chrift was.

Guys, it's used like a ligature. It's only used in an "ss" combination, and was designed to save space. It's related to the German ß. http://designorati.com/articles/t1/...ay-ess-tset.php E: VVV Yes, I know, it doesn't replace both. ß is a glyph that replaces both letters, but what looks like "fs" is the same overall construct, just using two separate characters.

Greek also has two 's' characters, one is used only when it's the last letter in the word. I don't actually know why this is, though.

Just got around to watching the episode and I have to say that it was excellent. I didn't find it particularly hilarious (still many, many good jokes though) but I found the plot and pacing great. There just hasn't been enough entertaining group interaction in a while, so this one knocked it out of the park for me.
