Talk:Road to Europe

message: I believe this term was popularized (and may have originated) from a circa 1960 Lenny Bruce routine that ended up in his book How to Talk Dirty and Influence People () — Bruce attributes the term to one of his mother's neighbors, who could have been repeating something she had heard elsewhere. The Bruce text:
Filipinos come quick; colored men are build abnormally large ("Their wangs look like a baby's arm with an apple in its fist"); ladies with short hair are Lesbians; if you want to keep your man, rub alum on your pussy.Such bits of erotic folklore were related daily to my mother by Mrs. Janesky ...
You can find this quote in the book's description (and the excerpt) at Amazon.
The earliest use I've seen of this exact wording Stuey uses was on The Tubes's song "What Do You Want From Life", from their eponymous 1975 album.
I would guess the joke (on Family Guy) is that the rhythm and syntax of that phrase sound plausibly British to american ears. That aside, I don't consider the slang use of this term especially British (supporting link given in prior version: ), but I wouldn't know first-hand. I certainly hear it used in american vernacular. – edgarde 19:11, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Like many Family Guy articles, this contains much WP:TRIVIA that might be well-suited for the Family Guy wiki, but lacks sufficient real-world notability for Wikipedia.
Relevant essays:
*WP:EPISODE#Content
*Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction)
Relevant guidelines:
*WP:Notability (fiction)
*WP:PLOT
Serious problems with most Family Guy articles:
*Re-telling every memorable joke. This almost never works and is unencyclopedic. See WP:EPISODE#Content.
*Spotting every time Peter Chris is drawn inconsistently. See WP:AVTRIVIA.

message: In the Jolly Farm Revue episode Stewie is watching just before he gets the idea to run away, Mother Maggie asks the kids what they want to be when they grow up and the third says "A Cambridge Don". To what does this refer?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.196.203.225 (talk) 23:54, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I haven't seen any consensus among critics, or otherwise to suggest the title is the former and not the latter. Would there be any objetions if I were to be so bold as to move the content under an article with the title "Road the Europe"? BlueNoise (Désorienté? It's just purple) 21:08, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
