| "School Days" -- is a song dating back, gods I dunno, decades. It was not made up by the writers, as much as we would like to believe. The lyrics, as I recall, are "School Days, School Days, dear old golden rule days, reading and writing and 'rithmetic, talk to the tune of a hickory stick..." Now of course I have created more obscure references...Um, Golden Rule is do unto others blah blah; hickory stick was a tool of punishment where bad kids put their hands out on the desk palms down and the teacher whacked their knuckles with a stick or ruler. Stings like a bastard... | |
| Elementary School -- This is usually the first level of schooling for American children, and it is for ages 5 through about 12, or Kindergarten through 6th grade. The yellow school bus is a classic, and has not changed shape for decades. | |
| Chef's car -- is an ancient 70s era station wagon with wooden side plates, affectionately referred to as a "woody". There are essentially none of these left on the road, and so it is an hysterical car for 70s icon Isaac Hayes' character to drive -- on many levels. | |
| Isaac Hayes -- American singer/actor best known for his incredibly sexy voice and his Academy award for the theme song to the film, Shaft. | |
| Salisbury steak -- a gristly pressed beef patty smothered in a brown gravy often with grilled onions. Often served as school lunch. | |
| Green bean casserole -- this is a recipe where you mix together frozen green beans, cream of mushroom soup, and a package of fried onions together and bake it in the oven. It is actually quite tasty. | |
| "This one's for the game!" -- is something called out during American football games if seconds before the time runs out and the game is to end, the field goal kicker has to kick the football through the uprights and score his team a game winning 3 points. | |
| Bus driver -- She's characterized this way because many of the bus drivers we all had in school were haggard irritable women with bad hair days. Now there is Prozac. | |
| Cow mutilation -- cattle ranchers in the midwest and western states of America have reported horrid mutilation of random cows in their fields, usually huge chunks taken from the animals or organs missing, etc. UFO enthusiasts claim it to be alien experimentation. | |
| Black Army CIA Helicopters --For years, the lunatic fringe has been insisting that there are unmarked black helicopters flying over the United States, often near sites where UFOs have been spotted or cattle mutilations have taken place. The explanation the conspiracy theorists give for these black helicopters is that they are secret United Nations units, scouting for a planned U.N. invasion of the U.S., in collusion with the CIA, alien visitors, or both. | |
| Frederick Douglas -- African slave turned abolitionist. | |
| "Milk is Good" -- drink more milk campaign ongoing in America because we have so many cows. | |
| Powdered doughnuts -- standard doughnut but with powdered sugar sprinkled all over it. | |
| Pot pie -- a pie crust filled with essentially a chicken stew. Picture a meat pie but replace the beef with chicken and the potato mash with a flaky crust. | |
| Cheesy Poofs -- a spoof on cheese puffs, fried air-blown corn mash sprayed with cheese flavored gunk. Writers couldn't get rights to use Cheetos, a brand name. | |
| Tom Selleck -- Television and movie actor, best known for his lead role in the television series "Magnum P.I." He is a heartthrob of most American house wives. | |
| "I Love to Sing-A" -- An old Al Jolson song. The scenes where Cartman and Officer Barbrady sing and dance around under alien control is a reference to a 1936 "Merrie Melodies" cartoon, in which an owl named "Owl Jolson" dances around, ponting his fingers like that. | |
| Sanford and Son -- based on BBC's "Steptoe and Son", a 70s era television situation comedy about a black man and his son who run a junk yard (a place to buy bits of stuff from old cars and appliances). | |
| "Ike...shaped like a football" -- an American football is shaped like an almond or like a rugby ball. | |
| David Caruso -- Television actor from show "NYPD Blue" whose career took a "nosedive" after he left the show to pursue movie roles. See links for more info. | |
| Scott Baio -- Child television star who, sadly, never left television. Credits include "Happy Days" and "Charles in Charge". | |
