More Mascots
I they should've featured a cinderblock mascot i.e. Cindy the Cinderblock? - 82.37.217.206
Chinese Food & Ryan S.
If you've ever had to share a refrigerator with co-workers, the "Ryan S." joke should be obvious. Dunno why I didn't see it before! -- tomstiff 15:06, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Ya confused me there, but... I get it now, because my mom came in just now complaining she should start writing her name on her food containers, so yah. That is funny. --Ookelaylay 16:05, 1 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Closed STUFF
Raffi (DECLINED)
Strong Bad's reading of the name as 'Rafi' might be an obscure reference to a Canadian children's entertainer, Raffi.
- Moved in here because it's a 'might be'. EDY-innit 16:33, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- No, i'm sorry. The correct answer, was Declined. EDY-innit 16:46, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Weak Decline. I'm not that worked-up about this one. He would probably have typed Raffi if he meant to refer to Raffi. -- tomstiff 16:53, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- decline Don't like the "might be" (never do) but this one at least is plausible. Donny vs Universe
- "Might be" and "obscure" don't work for me, sorry. Although it has a small likeliness, I doubt it. Decline. -- SBEmail22
- Accept because seriously I gotta accept one of these things, right? Dasrik 02:19, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
- Dee-clined. Doesn't seem like any sort of referance to Raffi. It seems like too big of a stretch. --SaikoRoxi 10:55 AM, 21 May 2005
- Accept! Of course! Why not? --thatkidsam 00:29, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
EWW! Trogdor's Bowels! (DECLINED)
Roller coasters don't usually have circular loops on them like the Bowels of Trogdor, because the G-forces involved, indeed, usually cause people to pass out. No one usually catches fire, though.
- Decleated! I mean, Da Cheated! I mean Del Taco! Actually, I've ridden on a roller coaster type thing (called "The Loop") in which the only track was a circle (Shaped like this > O). But, we unfortunately didn't catch fire. *Sigh.* Cheatachu72
- Decline I saw on once called the ring of fire. No one passed out. --AnarchyBalsac
- Second: Revise, Decline...oVG2?: Talk to my man with the isometric formula and the Roller Coaster Tycoon! (Yes, Shockwave, a coaster in one of them Six Flaggie parks, has TWO loops.) -MK and/or BurnBox 04:01, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Decline Though most loops nowadays are tear-shaped, there are some roller coasters with circular loops. The intensity of the ride boasts a more thrilling coaster. The only real concern with circular loops is that there's a greater chance of riders falling out at the top, but that can be avoided if proper safety measures are taken. - Song from 60s 07:26, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Decline These exist, I think. «Rob» 10:16, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Declined I've been on roller coasters like that so they do exist. The Pardack
- Decline. I first rode on a looping rolly-coaster in 1977. -- tomstiff 13:55, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Declone If the info is wrong, then the fact isn't a fact. Donny vs Universe
- I'll decline YOUR fun fact, my lord! I've been waiting all day to use that one. --Upset_Your_Balance 03:49, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
Fireball (DECLINED)
The Bowels of Trogdor might be a reference to the now obsolete ride, Fireball, at Morey's Piers in Wildwood, NJ.
- Moved in here because it's a 'might be'. EDY-innit 16:33, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Decline. Be bold: delete crappy facts outright! -- tomstiff 16:42, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- I speculate that this fun fact might be declined... EDY-innit 16:46, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Decline though there was a roller coaster like that in Wildwood there are other 'circle coasters' out there The Pardack
- Decline No no no. There are rides like this all over. Donny vs Universe
- Decline - Strikes me as speculation and that usually doesn't make a good Fun Fact. --Shadow Hog 03:02, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
- Freaky D'clined - Nope. Sorry. -- SaikoRoxi 11:02 AM, May 21, 2005
Will The Real Ryan S. Please Stand Up? (Both Accepted)
(A)The "Ryan S." on the box of General Tso's chicken is a reference to Ryan Shoulders from the TV show Survivor: Pearl Islands (airing in late 2003). In episode 2, Ryan S. goes to pick up a message (aka "treemail" on the show). While picking it up, he says, "The treemail, the treemail, wha wha the treemail," a play on the opening to techno.
(B)The "Ryan S." on the box of General Tso's chicken is a reference to Ryan Sterritt, a friend of the Brothers Chaps who has helped with the website in the past.
- I'd written the latter one, which I think is a more feasible connection than the former. Accept that one, but Neutral on the former; could be either way, really. --Shadow Hog 15:46, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Meeehh When there are two likely answers, hang them both. Donny vs Universe
- Double Accept I think both of them could be references that are correct. I'd put it like one fact, then the double asterisk, and the other fact, ya know? user: lappy 486
- Second. It should be noted that, on Survivor, the guy is actually referred to as "Ryan S.", to differentiate from "Ryan O." So both are very very plausible.--rsl12 11:01, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Second. I know I don't typically vote to accept "could-be" facts, but both of these do appear to be quite plausible based on the circumstances. --Beatfox 19:52, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Second.Why did this get STUFFed? AtionSong11:33, 30 Apr 2005
- Seconded with a capital S --djm1791 06:34, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
- Third --Da Borg
- Decline the former, accept the latter. The second one seems rather tenuous. --Andorra409 22:36, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Wait, you accept the "tenuous" one and decline the other? {is confused} --Jay 00:25, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Latter refers to the one at the end. Hes accepting the second one. Donny vs Universe
- Right. So he's accepting the second one, but he's also saying that it's tenuous. --Jay (Talk) 04:09, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Probably just means that it's something of a weak Accept, but an Accept nonetheless. --Shadow Hog 04:27, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry for the confusion, I meant to accept the first, and weak accept the second. I don't know why I typed Decline. --Andorra409 00:19, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Probably just means that it's something of a weak Accept, but an Accept nonetheless. --Shadow Hog 04:27, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- Decline A, Accept B --Jay 00:25, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Move A, Decline B.' That first one should go on the techno page, if it's not already there. The other one is irrelevant. --ISlayedTheKerrek 21:17, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Second The Ryan S. on Survivor is a good refrence (TBC could easily watch survivor), but is a dircet refrence to techno, not theme park, move it. Also, accept the second as it could be just as good and just as likely.
- Given that there's DEFINITELY a "Ryan S." on General Tso's Chicken and that it's not terribly likely to just be some random name they came up with, I'd say there's relevance enough. --Shadow Hog 04:27, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Accept Both -- Joshua
- Decline Both -- I think that whenever there is this much debate over either option, both should be scrapped. I mean, if it is not clear to a majority, why would it be a reference by the brothers? Tony Stony 01:43, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
- Accept Both -- They're both reasonable enough to mention. As a big fan of Survivor, I'd love to accept A and decline B, but I must say that B seems a bit more likely, given that A is a connection that few people would make (Ryan S. appeared on the show a total of three times), whereas B would at least be noticed by the "Ryan S." in question. Who knows for sure... but it must be a reference to something, so we should provide some hypothetical explanation. - Dingell
Comment Didn't TBC just say themselves in the commentary it's (B)? --Ookelaylay 16:07, 1 Aug 2005 (UTC)
