The part where they have Stan running home in a panic with that techno playing when he found out that Steve was a geek–what was that a reference to?

Sorry, but I don’t know. However, I wanted to say: “Why does everyone hate the juice?”

What was the sign at the convention that said something about vaginas? I missed it.

“Humanoids with vaginas get in free.”

What did the asian kid say? There was a tornado warning on at the bottom of the screen here, that blocked out his subtitles.

I think the scene might have been a reference to _Vanilla Sky_, unless I’m getting that confused with another movie.

When? The one I remember offhand is ‘That you didn’t make me Sulu shows remarkable racial sensitivity.’ when they were playing Star Trek.

I liked the episode. AD is consistently above average.

But that line went above and beyond!

This episode had a lot of gems:

- The whole fight with the terrorist was hilarious as well.

- Especially when Stan shot him after he donned the one ring.

- Roger and his probe victim

- Roger telling Haley to get over Bush. NEVER!

- Mulder and Scully…even to watch!

I thought it was a reference to [Run Lola Run](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0130827/), but I’m not sure.

“My god! Who’s manning the Internet?”

Asian kid: “The fact that you didn’t make me Sulu shows remarkable racial sensitivity.”

Then the fat kid stretches his eyes and says, “I’m Sulu.”

AK: “Laugh now, the next century belongs to us.”

While playing the card game:

AK: “Fool. Now who will shoe our horses?”

Stan’s hatred of the heavy kid was a riot!

Last week I said that Klaus’s DVD commentary gag was the first funny thing Klaus had ever done. Well, his weird fantasy about his manicurist is the second funniest thing he’s ever done. I really like seeing a severely reality-challanged Klaus.

That Asian kid is getting on my nerves. The “joke” is that he never speaks English I guess, but it’s not funny and it causes me to miss a gag if I look away from the TV too long and fail to read the subtitles.

Heh. I wonder how many people actualyl got the full meaning of that joke. OK, yeah, most people will be like,  
“Oh, he’s pretending he has a lgihtsaber, ok, funny.”

But us internet geeks know the TRUE reason it’s hilarious. 😃

All Poor Star Wars Kid jokes pale in comparison to the ones done by Arrested Development! 😃
