Confusion in the page
[edit]At different points in the page, the address is listed as different numbers. One spelling lesbos backwards, and the next spelling lezbo in leet. Which is it? Puresholtz 06:13, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Lesbos trivia?
[edit]Could the bar Les Bos be a parody of Lesbos (the Greek Island)?
Yes, it is. This is pointed out twice on the page.--K Lady112 04:52, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
Um... I'm pretty sure its a parody of "Lesbo" in the sense of "Lesbian". The Greek island was just the home island of a woman who we named lesbians after. So it may be a parody of Lesbos but only because Lesbo is assosciated with Lesbian. 71.197.14.47 02:29, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
And people wonder why bother labelling trivia as original research until it's verified, see above!Alastairward (talk) 11:53, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- It is original research, and I'd have it removed. However, as an off-note, I'd say that it probably is based on the Greek island, firstly for the reasons mentioned above, and secondly because the episode is a parody of 300. ≈ The Haunted Angel 12:03, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit]Did you notice that the least common denominator for 1/2 and 1/4 is wrong(there are three examples on the blackboard, two are fine and this one is wrong) ?
—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 206.188.85.61 (talk) 15:47, 13 April 2007 (UTC).
This is true. --81.219.231.40 14:35, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
You are right, since the LCD for 2 and 4 is 4, not 8. Though, since it's the first example on the board, they might have used a simplistic approach first, teaching them to multiply both numbers together and leave it at that (which isn't really LEAST common denominator, but gets the job done in a pinch). Jaimeastorga2000 18:54, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
another thing, this quote "Once again, Eric Cartman demonstrates his proficiency in Spanish when hiring Mexicans" isn't exactly true. cartman's spanish is awful and he refers to the sea as "la mer", which is french.
to whoever wrote the above...if you do not understand humor, do not post on south park or edit it. everyone knows cartman sucks at spanish, that is the point. it is called humor. look it up in the dictionary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.192.12.135 (talk) 01:29, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
The least common denominator of two integers is always 1. The least common multiple of 2 and 4 is 4. 99.233.27.82 15:24, 27 October 2007 (UTC) Jordan
300 References
[edit]Continuing the trend from last week's episode with Will Donohue's death, this episode is a clear parody of 300. There should be a section exclusively for 300 references. Applesanity 06:28, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Way too many facts. Look, we all know it's a parody. Why point out the completely obvious parallels, like the kicks to the nuts scene. Wikipedia is NOT a list of trivia. --Joeblack982 07:17, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- Less obvious if one has not seen one or the other. If you think this page has too many facts, you should read the trivia section in The_Snuke episode. Applesanity 07:27, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- This stuff should also be added to the 300 article in a proposed new section on 300 in Popular Culture or something to that effect. --164.107.223.217 14:13, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
I was going to write about 300 references in this chapter, but I see that other wikipedist also notice this fact. Although I do not know why the article has not been modified yet mentioning this references.--Arsergei (talk) 16:29, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Information in multiple sections
[edit]My compliments to the editors who have written one of the better articles on a recent South Park episode. The synopsis is relatively short and not too detailed while the "trivia" sections are pretty solid. However, there are a few topics that are mentioned in multpile sections: "...Again", ese (Ah, someone removed it as I was typing this), and scissoring. Shouldn't these topics be mentioned once in the article? Hoof Hearted 13:15, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Note that I was complimenting this version of the synopsis, which is now starting to bloat with details Hoof Hearted 14:43, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- Everything looks pretty good. Bang-up job to the contributors. I could be wrong, but is this first time that we find out Mrs Garrison's first name or adopted first name? Maybe worth a mention. Gaijin84 15:24, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- I also have to agree with Hoof a little bit with regards to the synopsis - some info needs to be trimmed down. Gaijin84 15:31, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- Even with the bloating, this is one of the better South Park episode articles. Good work. Gdo01 21:00, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- I also have to agree with Hoof a little bit with regards to the synopsis - some info needs to be trimmed down. Gaijin84 15:31, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- OK, well I'm going to be bold and remove "...Again?" from the Synopsis (explained more thoroughly in Continutity) and scissoring from the Lesbian references (the context in the Synopsis should suffice). Hoof Hearted 13:57, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
Strange that we should compliment an article on having little referenced material and lots of unreferenced! Alastairward (talk) 14:56, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
Symbols on Xerxes
[edit]Hey, does anyone know that symbol on Xerxes' headband? I'm figuring it has to mean something since the symbol is repeated elswhere, expecially on the Gucci-trimmed Hummer. Applesanity 02:42, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- You mean the incomplete double rings? Gdo01 02:49, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- yes, that would be it. Applesanity 04:52, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Don Imus
[edit]I swear to god, that woman with the WNBA jersey looks exactly like Don Imus and I don't understand why nobody seems to agree. I mean come on, look at the hair! It makes perfect sense as well. Don Imus..WNBA? Helloooo? Lilmul123 18:09, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
well actually, Don Imus has white hair and less body hair showing. --Xxhopingtearsxx 22:18, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
Mr. Garrison
[edit]Garrison is techniquely straight because in Mr. Garrison's fancy new vagina the surgeon tells him hes still a male but just with a mutulated penis. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.153.26.82 (talk) 06:38, 29 April 2007 (UTC).
- Ha ha ha - hey, if straight people want to identify with Mr. Garrison, that's fine by me. I sure don't claim him for my side.Rglong 04:38, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

See Also: Anti-Iranianism?
[edit]What purpose or significance does this 'See Also' link hold. To my memory, there is nothing pertaining to Iranians at all in the episode or article. Nox13last 22:28, 29 October 2008 (UTC) Your memory isn't very good then. Or you just didn't know that Persian and Iranian are the same thing. I couldn't care less whether it has the tag though, its not really anti-iranian. 24.207.133.10 (talk) 12:18, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
Ms./Mrs?
[edit]Ms. Garrison should really be Mrs. Garrison, right? At least ackording to the article on Herbert Garrison... 178.30.72.74 (talk) 17:16, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
Reception
[edit]The reception section only talks about a single review. Could someone expand it to provide a broader viewpoint. Bwisey (talk) 08:01, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
