I missed the first few minutes of this episode, but I love Butters even more than before. Personally, I hope he stays on as friend number 4. Tweek is ok, but he is too much of a gimmick character. He has the shakes because he is addicted to coffee? That gets really old. Incidentally, I am assuming Professor Chaos is modeled after Doctor Doom and then Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Tweek are gonna be the Fantastic Four?
Professor Chaos...

ok,

Actually, he's got ADD. The coffee is something else.
Older then seeing Kenny die all the time? That's not a Gimmick?
AHHH!!! Have you have the real life Mr. Garrison as your teacher for the past several years? THINK, damn you! It's the coffee!!
Actually, in Tweaks intro episode, his parents said that he had ADD.

a) THINK! Everyone got diagnosed with ADD. Remember the test for it? The shrink reads "The Great Gadspy" to them. THINK!!!!
b) THINK GODDAMNIT! It was a JOKE -- Tweek's dad sells COFFEE -- remember what happened when all the boys got too much coffee!!!???? THINK
AHHHH!!!! TOO MUCH PRESSURE!!!!

The
Different episode, but it does drive home the fact that kids are diagnosed with ADD far too often.
Right, it's all about Tweek's parents being blind to the influence of coffee on their son. Remember that Tweek can't sleep at night because he's too hyper. I don't think ADD causes insomnia, just an inability to focus.
-Jay
When I was a kid they didn't have "ADD" to kick around anymore. But I fit all the symptoms. I also have an extremely high IQ. Nobody could understand why I was always bored and unfocused at the same time. And I've always had chronic insomnia (just got a few of hours after about 36 hours awake). You can't get your brain to stop (and I have just had my first cup of coffee in about two days). Now in middle age I can focus, but it's very hard and I have to deprive myself of any kind of distracting stimulus in any other project other thanteone I'm working on. However when I do focus it is pretty damn intense. It's kind of a manic-depresssive thing but without the mood swings. The "ADD cases" I see today (on the bus, going to their special ed school) are kids who have real learning inabilities and average IQs -- and are real dumb-asses.

Yes, and they were full of shit, which you were supposed to understand. They're in denial about what they're doing to their son with coffee.
Actually, I agree with you. I never said Kenny dying all the time wasn't a gimmick. I never even mentioned Kenny. I just feel that Tweek and his "condition" will get just as old as Kenny dying all the time. I'm hoping for Butters to come back.
I can assure you Tweek shouting "AAAAAAAAGH!! AAAAAAAAAGH!" all the time will get very annoying very fast.
How did Pip get an invite to compete in the contest? And then make it to the 2nd round!!!

That explains the invite, but not making it to the second round.

Pip probably made it to the second round because the kids thought he would be a fun "friend" take take advantage of. You see this all the time in real life, where kids might allow a kid to hang out with them because he's rich, has lots of toys, can be the scapegoat they kick around, etc.
Pip's selection came as a shock to me, but it wasn't unrealistic.

You mean as another Butters of sorts.
In Butters' case, I guess he was too much of an idiot, even for that.
I assume Matt and Trey created a scene in which Pip would be dismissed in person rather than as part of a batch of kids, then placed it close to the final selection for more impact. What his picture was doing on Stan's table with the other five is what I'm wondering about, as Cartman dispatched him at the baseball game.
I think he got that far on the "someone we can rag on" points alone. Besides, it was nice to see Pip again after his forced haiatus.
But everyone loves Raymond.
