Hi all, In episode GABF12 (Future-drama) Skinner said to Bart: "You really press my cider" (or something like this) and then everybody gasps. I admit I don't understand why. Is it some kind of american idiom I don't know? Or maybe pressing cider is a felony or something :) ? Or is it that kind of joke you only understand if you live in USA? Well, could someone help me understand it?

That's all? Well, the fact such words came from Skinner is funny, but... I thought it would be something bigger. Thanks Peter

Remember, this is Seymour "Up Yours, Children!" Skinner we are talking about here.

Actually that's not ti at all. The joke is that something so inoffensive practically causes the world to stop in the future, rather than say, an obsenity laced tirade.

just remember:
if it's clear and yellow, you got juice there fella. if it's tangy and brown, you're in cider town.
Now there are two exceptions...
DON'T LEAVE ME HANGIN'!!!!
Well, it is really Flanders that leaves us hangin'. Not to mention Marge's admiration of the "foilage."
In Canada, the whole thing's backwards.

It's just a lame, lame way of saying someone gets on your nerves; an expression your 80-year-old auntie might use. The joke is everybody's horrified reaction to something so gentle.
