You guys have to remember that when you watch this show, you don't have to take everything so literally. I mean, I can't believe that people think that John Elway is Cartman's father. Didn't you get the whole point of that episode? None of those flashbacks were supposed to be the way it happened. And as for the continuity of the episode (Kenny appearing in the bus after he seems to have been killed by the monster) Remember that the whole episode was a dream. Nothing was supposed to make sense. Since people are having such a hard time accepting that, does that mean that they thought that it was normal for the bus to land in ice cream, but not for Kenny to suddenly appear on the bus?
OH MY GOD
<shrugs> It's fun.
I did. The John Elway thing was a joke. A very funny joke. Now let's all eat ice cream!
No sh*t, Sherlock.
Good point, but as I said before, pointing out things like that is fun. It gives people like me a life. :)

Yeah. I think South Park has simple humor and intelligent humor both. But some people try to analyze the simple stuff while letting the deeper comedy go over their head. I don't analyze it either way - if I get it, fine. If I don't I won't miss it :)

Haha, my brain is not firing on all cilinders either right now. Guess staring at the monitor for so long has that effect on me, ug.

Actually, the only post I saw "seriously" referring to ELway as Cartman's father was one of my own, and I was actually joking about it because the person I replied to hadn't seen the episode and was annoying.

I love South Park (what episodes I've gotten the chance to see, anyway) and I've noticed continuity errors. but, in a way, it adds a charm to the show. Do you think that maybe some continuity is ignored on purpose? It sure makes for discussion here and on many websites. Maybe it's sort of a publicity stunt thingy. Just a thought. Any replies? =}

I agree! I think there are several abstract creative styles which deliberately ignore some of the more, um, elementary things we take for granted. I think that it makes the show different, adds twists, and enables them to do more with a plot. But that's just my two cents :)
~Crib Rat
Well, cents add up to make dollars... and dollars are pretty. =P
~Jen I feel like I haven't seen a dollar in awhile.. sad, huh? I'm moving in with Kenny's family next month.
Yea pretty, pretty usefull ;-)
