> [@Dr. Love](#): > > Oh, and questions: > > Love1: What sights and sounds did Abe Simpson want to experience as he died on the euthanasia machine? Woohoo, first to answer one! Abe wanted to see cops beating up hippies, to the sounds of the Glenn Miller Orchestra. MT1: From the same episode, give the full name of the football stadium built specially to house Springfield’s NFL franchise, and also name the franchise. MT2: In the Halloween episode where Homer stumbles into the world of 3D, there are some hexadecimal numbers in the background. What do those numbers correspond to in ASCII?

> [@DxZero](#): > > Hmm…you might be right. Where the hell did I get lupper from? Maybe that was a different episode. You might be thinking of a 1996 two-part _Seinfeld_ episode featuring Janeane Garafolo as a woman Jerry dates. At first, she seems perfect because she’s interested in all the same trivial stuff Jerry is (prompting him to go so far as to propose, for the seventh-season cliffhanger), but gradually he comes to realize that she’s just a female version of himself (her character “Jeannie Steinman” even has the same initials), and he can’t live with himself because he _hates_ himself. Anyway, at one point Garafolo goes off on a Seinfeldian observational-comedy mini-rant: “So _brunch_ is a cross between _breakfast_ and _lunch_? Then why’s there no _lupper_, or no _linner_?” This firmly cements in Jerry’s mind that it’s time to break the relationship off. ---

> [@DxZero](#): > > DX2: What magazine did Homer pretend to work for when trying to steal the trillion dollar bill from Mr. Burns? Techincally, he didn’t pretend to be from any magazine, Burns just assumed he was from Collier’s(sp?) magazine. “I’m gonna write the best damn article!..Oh, right.” I don’t even know what number to give this anymore, so I’ll make it 1,244 (a question from the _future_…future…future…future) 1,244: SO we all know Homer has an exact double (Guy Incognito), but he also has an almost exact double, same for him save the opposite sex and some hair. We were never given a name, buy what was she singing? ---
