Talk:Mystery of the Urinal Deuce

message: It would be nice to have a citation for this in Trivia:
:The basis for the episode came after Trey Parker found that Mick Thomson of Slipknot believed that September 11 was a cover-up by the US government. Trey and Matt wanted to highlight how Thomson is indeed retarded. Mick responded by telling South Park to go 'blow him' on his myspace.
As it would give the ability to follow-up more closely. This seems to be unfolding now. -- Ubergenius 17:12, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

*Although Cartman claims Kyle received spelling test twelve days after 9/11, nine year old Broflovski would have only been four years old at the time of the attacks, about two years younger than the age at which most American children first take such tests.

Except for the transition from eight to nine, the South Park kids haven't aged since 1997. They should all be in their mid-twenties by now. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.209.233.192 (talk • contribs). 
*Math not your strong suit, eh? 8 in 1997+9 years=17 in 2006. Mid-20s? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.192.34.8 (talk • contribs).
* Clicking on links not your strong suit, eh?   Click on the link above, to see why the South Park kids were not 8 in 1997. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xargon666x6 (talk • contribs).
The problem is, floating timelines don't work the way you seem to think they work, especially not in a case like this, where the plot is directly tied to real-world events and references.  At best, if a character says something happened 5 years ago, that refers to 5 years ago in THEIR timeline, from THEIR perspective - NOT the timeline and perspective of the viewer.
Episodes (like Prehistoric Ice Man) explicitly mention the date, which utterly ruins the idea of retroactively dating their age backwards from the present moment in such a fashion.  Other episodes refer to multiple real-life events, which implicitly date themselves as well.  Saying "it's 2007 now, and since they're 9 years old, they were born in 1998" is inherently flawed logic.  At best, one could say that EVERY event that has occurred in the real world between 1997 and 2007 has occurred during a single year or two of their timeline.  From their perspective, 9/11 would have occurred only a few months ago, not when they were 4. Hossenfeffer 07:39, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Best line of the episode 

message: For anyone who didn't know (like me two days ago) Nancy Clue and the Hardly Boys are parodies of the better known Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys.  In other words, the Hardly Boys were not a South Park invention.  I have changed the wording to better emphasize that they are pre-existing parodies, as someone changed Nancy Clue to Nancy Drew earlier.  I also removed the link from "The Hardly Boys" to the Hardy Boys because the Hardy Boys have their own link already in the trivia section.  Mapache 21:51, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Is there really a good purpose for such a large "funny quotes" section? There is an entire website for quotes: Wikiquote. The page even has a _link_ to this quotes section. Perhaps this is the South Park episode guide precedent, but it clutters up the page and adds a lot of redundant information. Cheers, 69.19.14.26 09:53, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

His eyes roll into the back of his head, he doesn't look back at his bloody head. A screenshot should be provided if someone wished to include this again. --Pixelface 11:59, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed this bit of trivia again. I've seen the screenshot, I've seen the episode. What does "looking back at his head" prove? The researcher is seen again with no explanation. Kenny used to die every episode and be back, with no explanation. It's speculation and doesn't belong in the article. --Pixelface 14:56, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Cite these please;
* The Hardly family is a parody of the literary Hardy family of super-sleuths created by Franklin W. Dixon by way of the 70s TV series, The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries starring Shaun Cassidy and Parker Stevenson. The TV show's title and bumper sequences are imitated. In both the books and the episode, a man named Fenton is the father of Frank and Joe. The boys also match the physical descriptions of the original Hardys, although the blond is referred to as "Frank" and the dark-haired brother as "Joe," a reversal from the books.  A parody of the Hardy boys with the same title and idea once appeared in National Lampoon, along with another parody called The Retardy Boys. Parodic characters of this name similarly appeared in Nancy Clue and the Hardly Boys in A Ghost in the Closet, a LGBT-themed novel by Mabel Maney published in 2000.Amazon.com: Nancy Clue and the Hardly Boys in a Ghost in the Closet: Books: Mabel Maney
* When Stan and Kyle found the man in front of a fast food restaurant, the restaurant's symbol, a big W, is identical to McDonald's big M, just reversed.
* The song that Cartman sings is a reference to "Broken" by the band Shadow Gallery.
* Defecating in a urinal, and Kyle being blamed for it, was previously referred to in the episode, Starvin' Marvin in Space. The CIA agents working on the case of Starvin' Marvin stealing an alien spaceship enter the classroom and ask to interrogate Stan, Kyle, Kenny, and Cartman. Cartman becomes defensive, and trying to deflect getting in trouble, shouts, "That was Kyle that went number two in the urinal!"
