Well, not that Seth MacFarlane is above using crude sexual humor (obviously), I’m just not convinced that was the implication of the joke. I don’t watch the show regularly, but I gather that Meg not being able to taste salt is something that’s been referenced more than once? Sounds like she was just straining to think of something interesting to say about herself.
Maybe Seth will register on the board and weigh in.
Homer: Get President Clinton on the phone! He’ll know where to find some Tang!
Sorry, I just happen to watch all these cartoons on Fox.
King of Troy (Flanders): Now throughout history when people get wood, they’ll think of trojans!
Homer: Hehehe! Trojans!
Lisa: What are you laughing at, dad?
Homer: If I’m laughing at what I think I am, it’s very funny.

Bill Clinton to (IIRC) Marge Simpson : “I’ve done it with pigs. Real, no-foolin’ pigs!”
Joe
An angry farmer shaking pitchfork is chasing Homer and Marge, and says something like “If I catch you you’re gonna get such an ass-forking!”
Really? I thought semen = salty is pretty common knowledge. I mean, who hasn’t heard the old urban myth about the teenager in health class who, after learning that much of semen is made of sugar and protein, asks why it’s so salty.
No, never. It was a one-off joke she said while talking to a boy. However, I agree it wasn’t meant to be dirty because this was only in the second or third episode (first one with Joe,) which was before FG got dirty and raunchy, and before they started beating up on Meg (in fact, in the first couple of seasons, Meg was supposed to be sympathetic, the “average person” stuck in this crazy world of Kool-Aid Men, giant squids, and giant chickens.) So I agree the line was just her being awkward around a boy…she just blurted something stupid out…
But ones I can’t believe they did get away with:
Peter and Lois start smoking pot like when they were kids to get some “inspiration” for their folk music. Brian comes home, finds them blazed out of their minds, naked on the couch (although the one that broadcast on Fox Lois has underwear on, but the Adult Swim airing she didn’t, and it made it pretty clear that she goes full-on Brazilian…) Lois then goes to Brian:
Lois: He’s knocking on the back door…
Brian: Uhh…what?
Lois: Peter…he’s knocking on the back door! Should I do it? I’m a-scared!
Then there was a scene with Gene Simmons visiting Peter while he was trying to form a band. He waves his big tongue out, which then extends dozens of feet, crawls along the floor and we hear Lois offscreen go,
“Oh, HI Jean, heh heh.” (And in a previous episode, we know that Lois banged Gene.)
Pretty obvious cunnilingus reference.
This is the first time I’m hearing it.
I do remember doing a double-take in an episode where Peter offers to help Meg enter the dating scene, and says “when I get through with you, you’ll be beating off guys with both hands!”
Took me a long time (and the internets) to get that one. I thought the joke was just that Chuck’s Seed and Feed didn’t rhyme the way Sneed’s Seed and Feed does, it never occurred to me to make it rhyme.
Meg going into her room with a pack of hot dogs: I’m gonna pretend you’re the Knicks!
This is how I see it as well. “Ooh, ooh, ooh, I can’t taste salt.” As if this was just an incredibly interesting factoid about herself that this boy would no doubt be bowled over by.
Ahhhh yes! I remember that one. I remember seeing it and thinking “how the hell did they get away with that?!” :eek:
