I would find that about as funny as if I saw them planking or Faith Hilling and I think the same thing about that episode.  I don't understand it.Just rewatched this season and Tweek x Craig was the first episode I was bored by. Safe Spaces was better than I remembered it though. I forgot how hilarious Randy getting embarrassed by the cashier and the character of Reality was.

Do you need to personally relate to something? Are you a "remember when" kind of person? I would laugh my rear end off if I was in an assembly dedicated to fake gay love between two straight students, even if I was one of those two. I'd be pissed, but I'd think it's hilarious.

Regardless of any of the other choices, The Losing Edge not being on that list is the biggest travesty.

CBJSprague24 posted:It didn't feel like a South Park thing to preach "You should pretend to be gay so it makes people happy and lets them feel progressive!". The episode is to show how feeling progressive isn't the same as actually being progressive in important ways. They're not preaching that society should be like the episode, but that pretending to be gay and pushing people to be gay is stupid and doesn't make you a better person.

This list doesn't have Christmas Critters, Death Camp of Tolerance (Lemmiwinks), Red Badge of Gayness (Cartman as the leader of the Confederate army), You're Getting Old, Simpsons Already Did It, Marjorine, Cartman Sucks, Not Without My Anus, ImaginationLand, Coon episodes. List is crap.The Human Crouton posted:I'm curious where you find humor. Do you need to personally relate to something? Are you a "remember when" kind of person? I could see if they were photoshops of real pictures. That might be funny. But drawings? Why get pissed over drawings? No one would be thinking it was actually you.

I'd forgotten Crack Baby Athletic Association was the Wunderslash episode and now I want to go back and vote for it. The last five seasons or so have events I can remember happening, but can't remember in which episode. I got the one where Butters was thought to have multiple personalities and the one where Cartman winds up killing off his toys one by one mixed up in the first round of voting. Super Ninja Fish posted:I could see if they were photoshops of real pictures. That might be funny. But drawings? Why get pissed over drawings? No one would be thinking it was actually you. Any ammunition which could lead you to be believed to be gay in my middle and high schools, even if you weren't gay/lesbian in reality, could very quickly make life very awkward. Kids there are probably more accepting now, but not so much 15 years ago. One well-known kid in my class decided to tell any kids who would listen that one of my good friends and I were a gay couple the first day of 7th grade. That was also the first day of about 4 schools merging into one, so we got awkward stares from people who didn't know us for a while and it was a fun hole to dig out of for about 5-6 months until people realized "Yeah, you guys aren't gay, he's just a douchebag who has nothing better to do in his life than trying to start poo poo.". I think that's part of the reason I didn't like the episode, actually.

Naerasa posted:I'm so happy to see Butter's Very Own Episode, Casa Bonita, The Last of the Meeheecans, and Butter's Bottom Bitch on there. All of his episodes are fantastic. Butters is probably my favorite character. His parents are absolutely insane and his reaction to that is always wonderful. Also I laugh that in "Lil' Crime Stoppers" they make Butters try to jack off for days to get a semen sample and when he finally gets it they're done with that and playing as dry cleaners and offer to clean his pants for money.

Before 6th grade maybe. 6th grade+, you'd probably get more of a response from just calling someone gay, and more likely get to beat up for drawing anime.

I've been burning through old episodes of South Park and I just noticed that Butters Own Episode and Up The Down Steroids basically end the same with the "I learned something today" speech being directed at real people lol.

When a series runs this long, you have to consider how well individual episodes have aged, in a addition to how you felt on first watch. I have to say, my favorite episode so far has been Losing Edge. It's just so perfect. I laughed myself silly the first time I saw Batdad crash into the ground, like I was a puddle on the floor and had to pause the DVR so I could laugh more. I didn't laugh nearly as hard at that on repeat watch, but the episode as a whole still really holds up. The Rocky parody elements are fantastic. Creme Fraiche is great, but to really get it, you have to be a Food Network slut like me.

Weird start times = we're sticking more than the normal 8 minute of commercials in between a usually 22 minute episode to make them last more than 30 minutes total. Basically, if you're willing to watch all of this and not just stream it in order off of Hulu, enjoy your extra 60 minutes if commercials.

Glad to see Creme Fraiche in there. I lost one of my best friends last year and he LOVED South Park. We constantly quoted Creme Fraiche. There's a lot in there but specifically the sequence when Randy is calling the Food Network Hotline. I just love it so much. Re: Start times, they may have a quick live-taped intro for each episode talking about it

The end of Butters' Very Own Episode is so great. "MURDERER! YOU'RE A LYING MURDERER!", with the focus on the Ramsays, Condit, and OJ. It's like in "1%" where South Park gives no fucks about Cartman saying "Black people are incapable of doing anything wrong nowadays". Chinpokomon is starting now and I can't remember how many times I watched this episode on VHS in middle school but it had to have been 100.

Rewatching Kenny Dies now. Can't believe it didn't make the list of top episodes. Cartman's "breaking my balls" phone calls to stem cell research companies is insanely golden.

Kenny Dies is a special kind of comedy that most people wouldn't get or vote for in a top episode list. Half of the joke of the episode is it's about a character dying, except at that point Kenny died and almost every episode so it was a what the gently caress is this? Also I do appreciate the contrast in Cartman from Kenny Dies to Best Friends Forever. In the former he is trying to save Kenny and in the later he is trying to get Kenny killed, both for his own self serving reasons.

He's not trying to save Kenny. He only wanted stem cells to be legal so he could replicate a Shakey's.

IIRC the reason they gave was that they thought the whole "Kenny dies" thing was becoming stale so they decided to use that episode to kill off that joke. That's also why he stays dead for so long afterwards.

I can't wait for the post election episode this year. The Obama ones were fun. Edit - I fully expect at least part of the season to be Super Heroes to lead into the release of the new game since that's basically what they did with the episodes before the Stick of Truth release.
