Watch out Lazlow Panaflex here is my dumb I don't get it moment. Behind the laughter, the Hollywood Walk of Fame jokes





Nelson Mandela being on the walk of fame is obviously a joke but also the image of an F1 car I took as a really obscure (especially for the US) reference to Nelson Piquet,

I don't get the Joan Jett star and especially the typewriter.

I’m pretty sure it’s just that associating Joan Jett with a category as demure as writing is the joke, when she is known for being a loud rock musician.

I'm going to go ahead and say the Nelson Mandela one is also just "he's not famous for driving cars, that's silly."

There's two jokes. You got the Nelson Mandela one, the other is that Joan Jett is a published author, it's just the work she's least known for

"Was Moe shooting his shotgun unrelated to his 'give them one of these' dance, and he thinks you should shoot people, or was the shooting part of the dance itself?"

A punchline is defined as a sudden deviation from the expectations set forth during the preceding set up.

I will take either of these two as the answer, in conclusion my Joan Jett knowledge is not great and was looking for some sort of obscure reference that wasn't there. I am now a true goon.

Not sure if this has gone way over my head, but I always figured it was a reference to the possibly true story the Beatles' promoter paid girls to scream at their appearances early on in their career to build up their hype and make them seem even more popular. Moe is shocked to find out the Be Sharps were genuinely that popular.

Didn't South Park do this joke in the boy band episode?

Moe thinks they were paid to scream because it's a sneaky marketing technique to convince people the barbershop quartet is actually good and he's surprised to find out that the barbershop quartet is actually good.

More specifically, it's a 'Beatles on Ed Sullivan' reference.

I appreciate your use of trout, instead of something else Idaho is well known for producing...


This coming from a goon from Maine, which is the Shelbyville to Idaho's Springfield in terms of potato production.

I once had this sort of thing with the Future Stock episode of Futurama. When the 80s Guy offers Fry hair gel and he says he makes his own, my friend interpreted it as Fry using his own home made hair gel. I interpreted it as Fry just being so unwashed and greasy that he could gel his hair with the grease coming from his scalp.

when Fry says "that used to be milk but time makes fools of us all,"
